the mind controls the body
A handful of important quotes from The Map Of Consciousness Explained:
“The basic dictum to comprehend is that the body obeys the mind; therefore, the body tends to manifest what the mind believes.”
“We are only subject to what we hold in mind."
“The energy field of Reason (cal.400), with its beliefs and concepts of the mind, is more powerful than the field of the physical body (cal. 205). Thus, the body will express the beliefs held in mind, whether they are conscious or unconscious.”
“Our proneness to accept negative beliefs depends on how much negativity we are holding in the first place. A positive mind, for example, will refuse to accept negative thoughts and simply reject them as untrue for oneself.”
“A thought is actually a thing; it has an energy pattern. The more energy we give a thought, the more power it has to physically manifest itself.”
“What is held in mind tends to manifest–including unconscious beliefs. The culprit was not the world but the mind. All the negative programming and fearful conditioning was in the mind, and the body obeyed the mind.”
If you’re willing to be honest about your thoughts and beliefs and how they manifest in your life, whether for good or bad, it becomes easier to understand the importance of being in control of your mind.
At first, it might seem unbelievable that what you hold in your mind finds its way into your life, but you’ll see examples of this throughout your life. Once you can believe in the power of your mind, I believe you can begin to use it to work with you instead of against you.
See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
