Dharma's Thoughts

[Guest guest]

Dear Dharma,

You wrote:

"Emotions are the stuff of the emotional/astral plane, and thoughts

are thestuff of the intellectual/mental plane - and AT LEAST as

"real" as thestuff of the physical plane."

I am with you so far.

 

 

Then you wrote:

"That's why thoughts are so important and potentially harmful or beneficial."

 

When I read this sentence, it is like alarm bells start ringing

inside my consciousness.

More and more it seems...that it doesn't matter what thoughts come

up. Vast, expansive thoughts or negative, contractive thoughts. It

seems to me that the thoughts that appear have absolutely no effect,

whatsoever, on the course of events that take place in my life. It

is as if Life has Its Way with me, regardless. There are thoughts

and there are events, and it seems to matter not a bit whether an

event happened to be preceded by thought or not.

Therefore, I cannot agree that "thoughts are so important" or that

they are "potentially" anything at all. To me, they are just

thoughts.

 

Later, you wrote:

"We are constantly molding the stuff of the intellectual/mental plane

intothought-forms and releasing them."

This is not my experience. Thoughts come and linger or not, and

then they go. And like I mentioned before, it seems they have no

power whatsoever. They are completely inconsequential. They may be

molded, as you say, or they may be released, as you say, but I can't

take any responsibility for that taking place. It is not something I

"do."

 

 

"If on occasion you happen to think something awful, something you

wouldrather not spread around to other people, what you can do is -

quick! -grab that thought-form before it gets clear away and shred it

into bits,and just send the bits upward to be recycled." Given my

experience that thought bears no power on the course of events that

occur, I have no impulse in me to "grab" any or "shred" any or "send"

any, anywhere.

 

However, we do share one thing in common....

"...you may not even remember what it was you thought of. )"

 

 

 

Love,

Kheyala
