The Third Mountain (a)

(3.1) The Cerebral Spinal System of nerves is the organ of the conscious mind.

The Cerebral Spinal System is concerned with transmission of impulses from sense organs to the voluntary muscles.

(3.2) The Sympathetic System of nerves is the organ of the subconscious mind.

The Sympathetic System-responsible for flight or flight–is part of the Autonomic Nervous System, which is responsible for control of the bodily functions not consciously directed, such as breathing, the heartbeat, and digestive processes.

(3.3) The Solar Plexus is the central point of distribution for energy which the body is constantly generating.

The Solar Plexus is a complex of ganglia and radiating nerves of the sympathetic system at the pit of the stomach.

(3.4) This distribution may be interrupted by resistant, critical, discordant thought, but especially by fear.

If the nerves of our body were like a garden house, fear is like obstructing the flow of water through the hose.

(3.5) The result of this disruption is every ill which the human race has been afflicted.

When the flow of energy is obstructed, dis-ease is the result.

(3.6) This energy can be controlled and directed by conscious thought.

Conscious thought eliminates obstruction.

(3.7) Fear can be eliminated by an understanding and recognition of the true source of power.

The true source of power is our ability to consciously direct attention.

(3.8) Our predominant mental attitude determines the conditions we meet in life.

Our predominant mental attitude is the filter of all experience.

(3.9) To awake the solar plexus, mentally state what is wanted.

By mentally stating what is wanted, and consistently reinforcing this desire, we remove obstructions of energy and allow the solar plexus to radiate at the vibration that will “attract” our desire.

(3.10) Universal Mind is the creative principle of the universe.

Universal Mind is the source of unlimited creative potential. Directing Attention “travels” through the nerves of our body  and–upon reaching our Solar Plexus–is the “communicated” to Universal Mind.
