Creating Beneficial Thought Forms and Their Positive Action

1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,640
Whenever there is some kind of
news headline about a major

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:09,600
negative event, such as a school
shooting or a catastrophic

3
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:14,480
earthquake or hurricane, we hear
major political leaders express

4
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,040
thoughts and prayers for the
victims and their families.

5
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:23,680
Everyone knows that there is no
serious force behind this and it

6
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,160
is intended to deflect from
actually doing anything.

7
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,000
It also makes us doubt the
efficacy of thoughts and prayers

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,960
at all.
Aside from the deliberate

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,640
hypocrisy at work here, it is
clear that no real force of

10
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,000
consciousness and development of
a powerful thought form was

11
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,760
applied at all.
It is merely empty words.

12
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,160
Yet we can see examples where
the creation of a thought form,

13
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:57,520
whether expressed in words or
not, can have a very substantial

14
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,200
and beneficial impact on people
and circumstances.

15
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,319
This can occur when there is a
systematic application of effort

16
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,840
to develop a formation, or when
there is a marrying of a thought

17
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,240
with a strong emotion or vital
energy to enliven and strengthen

18
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:18,520
it in its action.
Some years ago, the

19
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,600
Transcendental Meditation
movement developed a program to

20
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:26,560
send a number of meditators to
certain hotspots for violence to

21
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,440
meditate systematically for a
period of time.

22
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,400
Studies were carried out that
showed in the period following

23
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,240
the meditation focus, the
violent crime statistics went

24
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,880
down meaningfully.
Of course, these studies could

25
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,600
not be done as double-blind,
scientifically validated

26
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,760
studies, but looked at
statistics reported generally

27
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,560
before and after.
This impact was seen across

28
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,880
several decades in a number of
specific incidents, seemingly

29
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,160
shoring up the benefit of such
quiet action on the general

30
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,480
populace.
The creation of detailed

31
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,720
formations is an important part
of many spiritual and occult

32
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,080
teachings from around the world,
including also healing

33
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,840
modalities.
For example, the Tibetan yogic

34
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,720
practice of the development of
the psychic heat has as a

35
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,800
preliminary practice the process
of detailed visualization, with

36
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,520
the practitioner seated and
visualizing his root guru

37
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,280
immediately above his head and
the lineage of guru seated one

38
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,920
above the other.
He then calls forth the psychic

39
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,680
gift waves from the guru, which
opens his receptivity to the

40
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,280
subtle vibration sent by the
guru to support the disciple.

41
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,680
The combination of the
visualization process, the

42
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:53,880
aspiration or call, and the
opening or receptivity creates

43
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,680
the condition for the formation
to turn the practice into

44
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,920
realization.
The healing modality of Reiki

45
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,560
also uses a focus on certain
symbols to which specific

46
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,320
meaning is provided.
Through a process of attunement,

47
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,680
the disciple learns how to
create the appropriate

48
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,200
formation, opening the channel
for the flow of the higher

49
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,640
energy in and through him and
thereby out to the patient or

50
00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:25,320
client who is being treated.
Reiki also works at a distance

51
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,080
without the physical presence of
the client, required through a

52
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,160
specific set of formation
actions to transmit the energy

53
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,440
to the intended party.
It is interesting to note that

54
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,600
Reiki works extremely well on
animals who do not have the

55
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,720
intellectual doubts that plague
human beings, but who simply

56
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:50,680
experience and open themselves
to the energy and even at a

57
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,240
distance.
A Reiki master teacher

58
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,480
practitioner reported her own
experience in receiving the

59
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,280
initial attunements.
When she made the required focus

60
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,720
and receptivity, she suddenly
felt a powerful surge of energy

61
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,440
in her chest area.
In fact, she had been suffering

62
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,680
from pains in that area for
several decades prior, But after

63
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,480
the atonements, that problem was
resolved and the pains were

64
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,560
eliminated.
She did not consciously try to

65
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,680
focus on the area of the pains,
but through the visualization

66
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:29,040
and concentration process and
the creation of receptivity

67
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:33,520
within herself for the energy of
Reiki, the blockage, the source

68
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,280
and cause of the pain was
eliminated.

69
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,200
Of course, the process of
creation of powerful thought

70
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,280
forms may also help create an
atmosphere where people step

71
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:48,800
forward to help solve situations
and support needs.

72
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,240
It can help create a texture of
consciousness that allows

73
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,880
changes at the societal level to
occur and may even lead to

74
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,840
changes in the political dynamic
that prevents real positive

75
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:05,640
change from occurring.
Such a societal change takes

76
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,920
time and persistence, but
history shows us that such

77
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:15,240
changes can and do occur,
particularly when there is a

78
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:20,200
serious and focused attention to
the creation of positive and

79
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,280
progressive thought forms to
move the society forward.

80
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,960
If possible, the thought
formation can be most powerful

81
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,360
when combined with a form of
outer action that engages the

82
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,640
emotional being, the vital
force, and the physical action.

83
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,320
If an individual is not in a
position to do all of them, the

84
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,720
first step, the creation of the
positive thought formation, is a

85
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,840
necessary and important aspect.
Eventually, as it takes shape,

86
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,560
the formation begins to change.
The outer action for the

87
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,920
individual and for the
circumstances and the societal

88
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,200
setting focus on creating
positive thought.

89
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:08,920
Formations cannot be used as an
excuse for refusing to undertake

90
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,400
the other steps as they become
possible.

91
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,840
But random outer action is not
as effective as the creation of

92
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:22,720
beneficial forces at the causal
level, the mother notes quote.

93
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,120
Note that this power of
formation has a great advantage

94
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,120
if one knows how to use it.
You can make good formations,

95
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,640
and if you make them properly,
they will act in the same way as

96
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,200
the others.
You can do a lot of good to

97
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,360
people just by sitting quietly
in your room, perhaps even more

98
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,920
good than by undergoing a lot of
trouble externally, if you know

99
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,120
how to think correctly, with
force and intelligence and

100
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,520
kindness.
If you love someone and wish him

101
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,720
well, very sincerely, deeply,
with all your heart, that does

102
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,320
him much good, much more
certainly than you think.

103
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,480
I have said this often, for
example, to those who are here

104
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,160
who learn that someone in their
family is very ill and feel the

105
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,400
childish impulse of wanting to
rush immediately to the spot to

106
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,600
attend the sick person.
I tell you, unless it is an

107
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,440
exceptional case and there is
nobody to attend on the sick

108
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:28,760
person, and at times, even in
such a case, if you know how to

109
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,320
keep the right attitude and
concentrate with affection and

110
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:37,120
goodwill upon the sick person,
if you know how to pray for him

111
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:42,160
and make helpful formations, you
will do him much more good than

112
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,960
if you go to nurse him, feed
him, help him, wash himself.

113
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,800
Indeed, all that everybody can
do.

114
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,520
Anybody can nurse a person, but
not everybody can make good

115
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,200
formations and send out forces
that act for healing.

116
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,880
