Inductive Reason

This week Haanel introduces the idea that through the conscious process of inductive reasoning human beings are able to compare a set of facts and deduce the common factor. This mental ability has enabled man to make use of the various Laws of nature and gain a degree of control over his own life circumstances. It has changed the course of history over time as we have studied the world in which we live. By applying our knowledge and understanding of natural law we are able to calculate with certainty specific things and events. Our ability to think and imagine, coupled with our inductive reasoning enables us to give birth mentally, to create new ideas through thought. In our minds eye we see and imagine things we desire, we develop a feeling around having the thing we desire, and as we move toward it with full faith and confidence, it will eventually manifest and appear to our physical eyes. But we have to give birth to it mentally first.

‘We are I am first to believe that our my desire has already been fulfilled, its accomplishment will then follow. This is a concise direction for making use of the creative power of thought by impressing on the Universal subjective mind, the particular thing which we I desire as an already existing fact. We are I am thus thinking on the plane of the absolute and eliminating all consideration of conditions or limitations and are am planting a seed which, if left undisturbed, will finally germinate into external fruition.’ (Haanel 11:18 & 19)

As we live in an attraction based Universe, the people and circumstances that are in harmony with us move toward us. If you are surrounded by negative Nelly’s then you need to look closely at yourself. These people are not in your life by accident, but by your own calling them to you through your thoughts and feelings. Your imagination can and will focus on anything, and if you do not deliberately choose where you focus, it will run riot.

We are all individuals, we are dual, there are two aspects to our beingness, a physical flesh and bone part and a spiritual thinking, emotional feeling part. The one cannot survive without the other. Even the smallest appliance of inductive reasoning can see that when the two separate, meaning when the spirit leaves the body, the body dies. Our physical body is a temporary vehicle for this time on earth. Many believe the spiritual part of us goes on with our journey through time. It doesn’t really matter what your personal thoughts are with regards to what happens after we die, but it does matter what you feel and think while you are in this physical body. Doesn’t it make sense to take the time to really get to know yourself. Your Inner Spiritual Self loves you….Let him or her in. Open you mind to the possibility within you.
