Thus it became necessary that God in His goodness give an ensample, a pattern, by which man might conduct his life, his ideals, his hopes, his fears, all of his idiosyncrasies; a pattern laid out for man. Those who accept same may live in peace and harmony with themselves and with others. Those who reject same continue to find discordant notes between their own associates, and with every activity of life there is continued to be trouble.
The body has found such in regard to those conditions in which food is prepared. Some it will never hurt to have prepared in aluminum, but in most people it gradually builds something not compatible with the better conditions in the body-forces. This is with certain types of food. Those which are acid will take particles of aluminum into the body.
But for this particular body we would continue with the present chiropractor. We would ordinarily give that osteopathy is more vital, but there are chiropractors and there are chiropractors. This is a very good one; don't lose him! He understands this body. These administrations will aid, but in self refrain from those attitudes of saying this or that.
Follow the principles of the Master in that “As ye think, as ye treat the other fellow, so does it come back to you,” and you just as well meet it in the present.

Reading 281-39
For thoughts are things, and the Mind is the Builder. But if ye fill thy mind with the cares of the world day by day, ye may not in the moment give the best that is in the life of those that live the Christ-life—even as Jesus gave the new commandment, “that ye love one another.”
Reading 105-2
Ever will the Entity set this truth before self, and burn same in the innermost recesses of the being. Thoughts are things, and may be miracles or crimes in action. These come that all growth in whatever direction this thought of the mental body, or the spiritual body, may be directed by the attributes of the mental, spiritual or physical body.
Reading 262-28
Looking to the front ever, for as one looks towards the light the shadows fall behind and do not become stumbling blocks to individual development. Thoughts are things, and while the past that is passed may be used as stepping-stones to higher things, looking back causes one to stumble, even as Lot's wife looked upon that left as longing for those satisfying elements that made for the carnal, rather than the spiritual life.
Reading 288-29
Well that the entity, or all, know that the law of love, or love as law, is cause and effect; or each impulse has its own corresponding reaction in thought, life, mental, physical and material. Not understood by some! This: “As ye sow, so shall ye reap.” [Gal. 6:7] Each thought, as things, has its seed, and if planted, or when sown in one or another ground, brings its own fruit; for thoughts are things, and as their currents run must bring their own seed.
Reading 386-2
We have just described how that the supersensitiveness of the nerve forces opens the body to such influences; or the body becomes what might be termed a human radio, but in giving expression to what is heard may often deflect what is actually said, felt or thought. For, thoughts are things! and they have their effect upon individuals, especially those that become supersensitive to outside influences! These are just as physical as sticking a pin in the hand!
Reading 531-3
(Q) Is there a stone or ring somewhere waiting for me, that I should wear? What causes the feeling that there is, and what power has such a stone in reference to one's life?
(A) That has been builded by the knowledge which has come to self oft, as to the influences that are without self. That thoughts are things and may be miracles or crimes is true. So, the experiences have brought that; as to how those things in their various emanations of the cosmic or etheric forces in nature gather about them—as in stones—a concentration of a force or power.
The ruby would make for the body that not as something which would be other than the power that self attributes to same, through its actual experience. But the light or reflection from same, worn on hand or body, will enable the body to concentrate in its mental application the greater—through the influences such a stone brings to material expression.
How? Each element, each stone, each variation of stone, has its own atomic movement, held together by the units of energy that in the universe are concentrated in that particular activity. Hence they come under varied activities according to their color, vibration or emanation.
In this particular one (the ruby) there is that fitness with that which has been the experience of this soul, this entity, through material expression. Hence it is an aid, a crutch to lean upon. But, as has always been given, let it be a stepping-stone; not that which thou standest only upon!
Reading 906-3
For mind is the builder and that which we think upon may become crimes or miracles. For thoughts are things and as their currents run through the environs of an entity's experience these become barriers or steppingstones, dependent upon the manner in which these are laid as it were. For as the mental dwells upon these thoughts, so does it give strength, power to things that do not appear. And thus does indeed there become that as is so oft given, that faith is the evidence of things not seen.
Reading 1035-1
Like begets like. If you would have friends, be friendly. If you would have loving associations, show thine self lovely. And that ye sow in mind, in activity, ye must reap in thine own experience.
Know that the Lord liveth, and manifests in and through thee. And that born of the spirit in thine mental self may find expression in the material life. For Mind, in the mental, is the Builder; and bringeth forth fruits worthy of that which is held in the inmost self in its relationships of self to things, to conditions, to peoples.
For thoughts are things, and as the currents run they become miracles or crimes in the experiences of individual life.
Reading 1152-4
As the first law has been given, when manifestation of matter was called into being by the First Cause or God—thy seed shall be within itself—or what ye sow ye reap, or like attracts like.
These are oft to the mind but sayings without the consideration of what and how these facts, these truths are the basis of man's experience not only in material form but in mental and spiritual.
Could the entity then imagine a home, whether earthly or spiritual, without a builder or a carpenter?
Could the entity imagine a home without its furnishings?
These are a part of the whole building. It would be as easy to imagine a tree without roots or without limbs or branches, or without fruit or without the call for the fowls of the air to lodge therein! These are part and parcel, they are the essence—and yet the substance. They are the beginning and the end of—thoughts are things and take form as they are dwelt upon and are builded in the experience of individual souls that seek God.
