“All that we are is the result of what we have thought; it is founded on our thoughts and made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, suffering follows him as a wheel follows the hoof of a beast that draws a cart.”   Dhammapada

“Thinking, acting, and speaking in a more positive manner affects the conscious mind by making proper changes to the thought process. This influences the brain on a physical level, allowing it to function more effectively with heightened brain activity. Intuition, creativity, and clarity become stronger. Greater amounts of endorphins, including serotonin, are released by the brain and the brain stem into the blood stream. This will give you a sense of aliveness and contentment. In other words, positive thoughts and words create positive feelings within.”  Douglas De Long, Ancient Healing Techniques, page 69 & 70.

“No matter how spiritual you are, there will be times when you are not feeling love. At such times, ask yourself the question “How can I feel love right now?” What you realize as you explore this question is that the only way you can “feel” love is to “think” a loving thought. Loving thoughts lead to the emotional state of feeling love. And out of this positive emotional state actions arise which connect you to others.”  Paul Ferrini, Reflections Of The Christ Mind, Present Day Teachings Of Jesus, page 191
