Divorce our Old Story - and Marry a New Story!

What do you think? 

On October 18, 1911, 'Abdu'l-Bahá was in Paris. He gave a brief talk that day on the subject of human thought. He began with a simple statement:

The reality of man is his thought, not his material body. The thought force and the animal force are partners. Although man is part of the animal creation, he possesses a power of thought superior to all other created beings.

('Abdu'l-Bahá, Paris Talks, p. 17)

On the surface, He seems to be saying that our minds are what define us, not our bodies. If so, most of us would probably agree. But He went on to talk about how thought actually creates reality:

If a man's thought is constantly aspiring towards heavenly subjects then does he become saintly; if on the other hand his thought does not soar, but is directed downwards to centre itself upon the things of this world, he grows more and more material until he arrives at a state little better than that of a mere animal.

('Abdu'l-Bahá, Paris Talks, p. 17-18)

In effect, the Master says that our destiny is in our own hands, or rather in our own minds. We can choose which direction to move, either to greater levels of spirituality or to greater depths of materiality, by focusing our thoughts in that direction. Again, most of us would probably agree that this has some validity, but we might suspect it's not quite that simple. Does merely thinking spiritual thoughts really make us spiritual?
