A Step Beyond Positive Thinking

Positive thinking alone cannot create results; only realistic, disciplined thoughts aligned with Dharma and followed by effort bear fruition

Imagination rules the world, as the saying goes.

True, imagination is the source of all visible actions, but it alone is barely sufficient to produce results in the real world.The thoughts in our minds are our primary actions. They are the starting points of secondary and tertiary actions, which are performed through speech and the external sensory organs, respectively. The latter are the five working organs—hands, feet, genitals, anus, and tongue. We place so much importance on actions performed through the five karmic, senses, but give hardly any significance to the thoughts that run through our minds.
