THE BRAIN 239
 52 CREATIVE IMAGINATION, and AUTO-SUGGESTION. The stimuli
53 through which you put these three principles into action have been described-the
54 procedure begins with DESIRE.
THE GREATEST FORCES ARE "INTANGIBLE"
55 The depression brought the world to the very borderline of understanding of the
56 forces which are intangible and unseen. Through the ages which have passed,
57 man has depended too much upon his physical senses, and has limited his
58 knowledge to physical things, which he could see, touch, weigh, and measure.
59 We are now entering the most marvelous of all ages-an age which will teach us
60 something of the intangible forces of the world about us. Perhaps we shall learn,
61 as we pass through this age, that the “other self” is more powerful than the
62 physical self we see when we look into a mirror.
63 Sometimes men speak lightly of the intangibles- the things which they cannot
64 perceive through any of their five senses, and when we hear them, it should re-
65 mind us that all of us are controlled by forces which are unseen and intangible.
66 The whole of mankind has not the power to cope with, nor to control the
67 intangible force wrapped up in the rolling waves of the oceans. Man has not the
68 capacity to understand the intangible force of gravity, which keeps this little earth
69 suspended in mid-air, and keeps man from falling from it, much less the power
70 to control that force. Man is entirely subservient to the intangible force which
71 comes with a thunder storm, and he is just as helpless in the presence of the
72 intangible force of electricity – nay, he does not even know what electricity is,
73 where it comes from, or what is its purpose!
74 Nor is this by any means the end of man's ignorance in connection with things
75 unseen and intangible. He does not understand the intangible force (and
76 intelligence) wrapped up in the soil of the earth – the force which provides him
77 with every morsel of food he eats, every article of clothing he wears, every dollar
78 he carries in his pockets.
