The Power of Thoughts

[Guest guest]

My Humble Pranams at the Divine Lotus Feet of our ever present Bhagawan Sri

Sathya Sai Baba!

 

" To test if your thoughts are creating your world,notice the acuatal state of

your consciousness right now and discover how it is being reflected in the world

you are experiencing.An incident in my life serves an example.I had ordered a

new washing machine to replace our thirty-year-old one that was failing.Having

unexpectedly recieved a wrong item or damaged goods in the past,I found I was

concerned that the machine might not be the model i had ordered or not be

delivered in new condition.I realised that such thoughts might actually cause

what i was concerned about to happen.So i let go of this concern.When the washer

was deelivered,i was ready to accept it.As it was being unloaded,i noticed that

half of the transport bolts that should have been in place to prevent damage

were missing.Some parts that should not yet have been installed but were

installed.I was still reeady to accept the machine when i noticed the back of it

was somewhat still dirty.It looked as though it had been installed somewhere

else,returned,and then sent to me.Even though i thought i had let go of my lack

of trustthat the machine would be delivered in new condition,i realised i was

still checking to be sure.My untrusting attitude was still thereand its effects

were being manifest.I refused the machiine and noted to the power of thoughts "
