I sit
here in my home office on a cold December night and I think about the
significance of this moment in thought as well as the monumental responsibility
for it, if in fact “energy follows thought” as some disciplines, espouse.
Energy
follows thought means ultimately all thought is creative or creating and
continues to create once the thinker abandons it. If intention is the yeast, then that
energy component has the potential to manifest into a creation on the canvas of
time and space.
This
kind of thinking gets a little convoluted in its possible consequences, but you
get the principle of the idea. It’s a little weird too.
The idea
is that once you think about something, what if that thought bounds around the
universe bumping into and attracting like thought patterns that end up in a
mish-mash junk yard of collective possibilities? Hopefully the thought trash
heap is somewhere at the edge of the universe and away from any disorder the
original thought could create. It may be out of the way, but it’s still
there.
I have
no idea whether it could or could not happen, but I don’t want to take any
chances with any errant or ill-conceived thoughts hanging out with other
like-minded energy thoughts down at the corner of space, so what do I do?
I have
been told of two antidotes. One is all you have to do is say “cancel” and the
thought energy dissipates and two you can offer a prayer thought, the
non-denominational variety, that basically says, “I release into the light any
negativity created by my thought and ask that it be transformed into a useful
energy for the good of the whole.”
These
are just a few of the mystical mental wanderings that come on cold night when a
mesmerizing fire frees thoughts from the “what if” file in the back of my mind.
I’ll try to be more practical tomorrow.
I’m off now to dream of Leprechauns and UFO’s and world peace.
