Not so easy is the act of explaining the detailed workings of thought and destiny.
Each thought is a link in an endless chain of causes and effects, each effect becoming a cause
and each cause having been an effect; and each link in the endless chain is welded out of
three components—desire, thought and activity. A desire stimulates a thought; a thought
embodies itself as an act. Act constitutes the web of destiny.
Unselfish loving and every thought of compassion helps to build the strongest framework of
thought imaginable.
You sow an action and reap a habit; a habit sown results in character. You sow a character and
reap a destiny.
Man is the master of his own destiny. You make yourself, by the power of your thought, your
destiny. You can undo it if you like. All faculties, energies and powers are latent in you. Unfold
them, and become free and great.
Your Thoughts Chisel Your Outward Appearance
Your face is like a gramophone record or freshly created compact disc, whatever you think is at
once written on your face.
Every unpleasant thought serves as a chisel or needle to sculpt the thoughts on your face. Faces
are covered with the scars and wounds which are made by thoughts of hatred, anger, lust,
jealousy, revenge, etc.
The man who thinks that he can hide his thoughts is fooling himself. The face is the contents
page of the mind. Every thought cuts a groove in the face. A loving thought brightens the face.
An evil thought darkens it.
Continued unpleasant thought increases the depth of dark impressions. The facial expression
truly advertises the inner state and true contents of the mind.
Look out for it in the faces of others on your travels. With practice it is not difficult to see a
troubled or happy life written in the etched lines and shadows of peoples faces.
The face is like an advertisement hoarding displaying what is going inside the mind. Your
thoughts, sentiments, states and emotions produce their strong impressions on the face.
In your face, you can hardly hide your thoughts. You may wrongly think that you have kept up
your thoughts in secret. The thoughts of lust, greed, jealousy, anger, revenge, hatred, at once
produce their deep impressions on your face.
The face is a faithful recorder and a sensitive registering apparatus to register and record all the
thoughts that are in your mind. The face is a polished mirror to indicate the nature of the mind
and its contents at a particular time.
Thoughts Feature the Physical Expressions
Mind is the subtle form of our physical body. The physical body is the outward manifestation of
the thoughts. So when the mind is twisted, the body becomes twisted too.
Mind very conspicuously reflects on the face its various states which a man of intelligence can
very easily read.
The body follows the mind. If the mind thinks of falling from a height, the body prepares itself
immediately and shows external signs. Fear, anxiety, grief, cheerfulness, hilarity, anger, all
produce their various impressions on the face.
Your Eyes Betray Your Thoughts
The eyes are the windows of the soul and cannot conceal the condition and state of the mind.
