Thoughts are a special form of energy (Qi). They give direction to life. They determine how we evaluate situations. They form the substrate from which words and actions emerge. Thoughts play a crucial role in our health and happiness. In theory, this is well-known – yet in everyday life, we sometimes barely remember it. A striking, easy-to-perform experiment with garlic cloves offers the chance to deeply internalize the power of thought:
Preparation
- Place the same number of garlic cloves into two bowls.
- Add the same amount of water to each bowl to create identical germination conditions.
- Place the bowls at a distance from each other. Ensure comparable light and temperature conditions at both locations.
Execution
- One of the two bowls with garlic cloves receives Qi transmissions through loving, encouraging thoughts at least once a day. For this, sit or stand near the corresponding bowl. Relax your body, let your mind become calm, and then mentally give the garlic cloves positive impulses (e.g., germinate quickly, form healthy sprouts, develop strong roots). With some practice, you can also mentally influence the direction of growth.
- The other bowl is either ignored completely or given disparaging thoughts.
- Ensure that both bowls receive additional water if needed (the same amount for each).
Result
- After a few days, a clear difference in development will be visible.
Once we have internalized the power of our thoughts, we will direct them with appreciation and confidence. In this way, we can positively influence our own lives as well as the lives of those we care about.
