Human beings have extremely effective means at their disposal to resolve their problems: they have thought, willpower and imagination. But because they usually only use outside methods, these faculties remain undeveloped. So many people say: 'Thought? I have tried many times to use thought, but to no avail.' And why is this? Let us suppose you wish to overcome a physical or mental weakness. It has taken you centuries, several incarnations to form this weakness, so how on earth could you imagine that by deciding now to concentrate on it for two or three minutes you will overcome it? Maybe it will take you centuries again. The psychic world is governed by laws in the same way the physical world is, and one of these laws is that if you have been making mistakes for years, it is logical that it will take a great deal of time and effort to repair them. You can speed up the process provided you learn to work with the methods of the mind, the soul and the spirit.
