EPILOGUE 281


670 The vibrations of fear pass from one mind to another just as quickly and as

671 surely as the sound of the human voice passes from the broadcasting station to
672 the receiving set of a radio-and BY THE SELF-SAME MEDIUM.


673 Mental telepathy is a reality. Thoughts pass from one mind to another,
674 voluntarily, whether or not this fact is recognized by either the person releasing

675 the thoughts, or the persons who pick up those thoughts.


676 The person who gives expression, by word of mouth, to negative or destructive
677 thoughts is practically certain to experience the results of those words in the

678 form of a destructive "kick-back." The release of destructive thought impulses,
679 alone, without the aid of words, produces also a "kickback" in more ways than

680 one. First of all, and perhaps most important to be remembered, the person who
681 releases thoughts of a destructive nature, must suffer damage through the

682 breaking down of the faculty of creative imagination.


683 Secondly, the presence in the mind of any destructive emotion develops a
684 negative personality which repels people, and often converts them into

685 antagonists. The third source of damage to the person who entertains or releases
686 negative thoughts, lies in this significant fact – these thought-impulses are not

687 only damaging to others, but they EMBED THEMSELVES IN THE
688 SUBCONSCIOUS MIND OF THE PERSON RELEASING THEM, and there
689 become a part of his character.


690 One is never through with a thought, merely by releasing it. When a thought is

691 released, it spreads in every direction, through the medium of the ether, but it
692 also plants itself permanently in the subconscious mind of the person releasing it.


693 Your business in life is, presumably to achieve success. To be successful, you

694 must find peace of mind, acquire the material needs of life, and above all, attain
695 HAPPINESS. All of these evidences of success begin in the form of thought

696 impulses.


697 You may control your own mind, you have the power to feed it whatever
698 thought impulses you choose. With this privilege goes also the responsibility of
