The power of thought must be conquered

by CR (092)

As previously mentioned the action of thought can result in tangible things useful to humanity and if that is so on this physical planet, the power of creative thinking is far greater in spiritual space where spirits of the Superior Astral move. 

Evolution means, above all, creative power. The more advanced the spirit, the more powerful its thinking and creative capacity.

A backward man, no matter how evil his intentions may be, cannot go beyond certain limits imposed by shortcomings of his reasoning power and the mental poverty of which he is endowed. On the other hand, if an evolved spirit, like for instance a scientist, uses his intelligence for evil purposes, he could cause devastating harm.

Now, if this can happen on a physical world like ours, of such modest, limited spiritual evolution, we can imagine the immense creative power, and extraordinary power of achievement of the highly evolved spirits living in more advanced spiritual worlds.

Vigorous thinking emanates from strong, skilled, experienced spirits. In each successful reincarnation the spirit, now as a human being, consciously works to further improve his psychic personality.

The power of thought, as well as the capacity to conceive, to create, to accomplish work, grow in proportion to spiritual progress or evolution, making each accomplishment better than the previous one.

The great repository of wisdom lies in the Superior Astral, not on Earth. The advances of modern technology would still be unknown if many of their components had not been conveyed to human beings via intuition, that is, by the power of thought which overcomes all distances and barriers.

Among the spiritual values which humanity must inescapably conquer on Earth, the faculty of thought assumes an outstanding role, since the rational solution of all life's problems depends on the power of concentrated, encompassing thought.
