In spite of being invisible, the

potential of thoughts is
greater than
any other power of the
physical world.

Every moment of human life is

intensely interwoven with

proved
by various imaging
technologies
like Kirilian photography.

or devolution of one’s
life lies in his/her
thoughts.

IMPORTANCE OF THOUGHT POWER

We often neglect the importance

of thoughts in shaping
our personality and our Karma.

In fact before any action the thought

of doing it initially takes shape
in the form of thought.
 THREE STEPS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF
THOUGHT POWER :

1.Thought Awareness
2.Positive Thinking
3.Swadhyay
1) THOUGHT AWARENESS :

Thought awareness is the process

by which one observes ones thoughts
for some time and become aware of
what is going through in mind.
It is best not to suppress any
thoughts. 
Thought awareness is the first step
in the process of
eliminating negative thoughts –

REMEMBER : you cannot counter

thoughts
 1) THOUGHT AWARENESS :

1. Just observe your thougths

2. Watch for negative thoughts while
you observe your 'stream of
consciousness'.
3. Normally these appear and disappear
being barely noticed.
1) THOUGHT AWARENESS :

Make a note of the thought, and then

let the stream of consciousness run on.
 Examples of common negative
thoughts are:

* Worries about how you appear to

other people
* Consequences of poor performance
* Self criticism
* Feelings of inadequacy
 Negative
thinking
Negative thinking causes stress because
it damages your confidence that you are
equal to the task you face.
 Negative
thinking
You are thinking negatively when:

you put yourself down,

criticize yourself for errors,
doubt your abilities,
expect failure, etc.

It is the negative side of suggestion –

it damages confidence, harms performance
and paralyses mental skills.
2) POSITIVE THINKING :

Once you are aware of your negative

thoughts, write them down and review them
rationally.

See whether the thoughts have any basis in

reality.
2) POSITIVE THINKING :

Often you find that when you properly

challenge negative thoughts they are
obviously wrong.

Often they persist only

because they escape notice.  
 Positive Affirmations
You may find it useful to counter negative
thoughts with positive affirmations.

You can use affirmations to build

confidence
and change negative behavior patterns
into positive ones.
 Positive Affirmations

You can base affirmations on clear,

rational assessments of fact, and use them
to undo the damage that negative thinking
may have done to your self-confidence.
Examples of affirmations are:
1. I can do this.
2. I can achieve my goals.
3. I am completely myself and people will like me
for myself.
4. I am completely in control of my life.
5. I learn from my mistakes. They increase the
basis of experience on which I can draw.
6. I am a good valued person in my own right.
3) SWADHYAYA :

Traditionally people have advocated positive

thinking almost recklessly, as if it is a
solution to everything.

No amount of positive thinking can make

everyone who applies it an
Olympic champion marathon runner.
3) SWADHYAYA :

To integrate higher and nobler thoughts

with your personality you need to do
Swadhyaya.
 Swadhyay means :

Self education in the light of the inspiring

thoughts of great personalities and natural
conditioning of the mind in the
company of morally elevated people
 The guidance of
Guru meansGuru
one who dispels the inner darkness
or ignorance of real self.

Through the help of Guru grace, one starts

experiencing the divinity of inner being and
the initiation into Sadhana associates one with the
subtle power of divine cosmic thoughts.
 The guidance of
Guru

The uniqueness of Indian Culture lies in

its elaborated yogic practices for development
of thoughts and eventually faith and belief in
inherent divinity of inner being.
JAP and DHYAN
 Thus Thought awareness,
positive thinking and Swadhyay are
three closely connected tools,
which help you to eliminate thought
patterns that damage your self-confidence
and cause you stress
and initiate you in realization of power of
divine thoughts.
