The mind is the effect, not the cause.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Before the effect one believes in different causes than one does after the effect.
The idea that our mental life is affected by hidden causes is a mainstay of psychology.
The ill effects of thought come about when we forget that thought is a function of our consciousness... an ability that we as human beings have. We are the producers of our own thinking.
The cause is hidden; the effect is visible to all.
Cause and effect are two sides of one fact.
War is just an effect, not a cause.
The mind can also be an erogenous zone.
There is, I conceive, no contradiction in believing that mind is at once the cause of matter and of the development of individualised human minds through the agency of matter.
Few things focus the mind like fear.
All causes are essentially mental, and whosoever comes into daily contact with a high order of thinking must take on some of it.
