Conclusion
Man, therefore, is an enmeshed, integral part of
life on earth and in the universe. They maintain
he is linked to the cosmos via his bioplasmic
body, and reacts to changes in the planets as well
as the moods and illnesses of others, to thought,
emotion, sound, light, color, magnetic fields,
the seasons, cycles of the moon, tides, thunder,
storms, strong winds and even levels of noise.
(Tompkins and Bird, 1989)
Energy is the substance that can be described as all that is. Every thing exists in
the form of energy. Our thoughts are included in this, as the unspoken word is an
energy that is sent out and travels in the direction given. We therefore have been
given a very powerful tool to work with, to co-create our lives and the universe for
that matter. Decisions can be influenced, people's health can be changed and your
quality of life can change for the better or worse.
Life is about choices. It is totally up to you as to what kind of energy you want to
send out and what you want to receive. As a thought wave is sent out, it interacts
with the wave patterns of the person or activity it is directed at. When waves meet
they can be added or subtracted depending on if the wave pattern is positive or
negative. Also, energy cannot be destroyed and that these energy packets/waves
get sent round and round. We have the power to influence the existence of all that
is.
Energy has certain specific characteristics. They can be superimposed, they get
reflected and they can change direction. If your energy is directed at a certain
activity or person, you will influence that flow or pattern of energy in a certain
fashion. Since you have interfered with the energy patterns of a particular nature,
the result will be the creation of energy packet in response to that. That new,
changed, thought pattern is sent to you, and so we influence actions, decisions,
state of health etc. without being aware of what we do! It is a very big responsibility
to control our thoughts, as the outcome of these thoughts might not be what was
intended.
This explanation of Ali (AS) makes a very good conclusion to this work:
This Islam is the religion, which Allah has
chosen for Himself, developed it before His eyes,
preferred it as the best among His creations, and
established its pillars on His love.
He has disgraced other religions by giving honour
to it. He has humiliated all communities before
its sublimity. He has humbled its enemies with
His kindness and made its opponents lonely by
according it His support.
He has smashed the pillars of misguidance with
its columns. He has quenched the thirst of the
thirsty from its cisterns, and filled the cisterns
through those who draw its water.
He made Islam such that its constituent parts
cannot break, its links cannot separate, its
construction cannot fall, its columns cannot
decay, its plant cannot be uprooted, its time does
not end, its laws do not expire, its twigs cannot be
cut, its parts do not become narrow, its ease does
not change into difficulty, its clarity is not affected
by gloom, its straightness does not acquire
curvature, its wood has no crookedness, its vast
paths have no narrowness, its lamp knows no
putting off and its sweetness has no bitterness.
It consists of columns whose bases Allah has
fixed in truthfulness and whose foundation He
has strengthened, and of sources whose streams
are ever full of water and of lamps, whose flames
are full of light, and of beacons with whose help
travellers get guidance, and of signs through
which a way is found to its highways and of
watering places which provide water to those who
come to them.
Allah has placed in Islam the height of His
pleasure, the pinnacle of His pillars and the
prominence of His obedience. Before Allah,
therefore, its columns are strong, its construction
is lofty, its proofs are bright, its fires are aflame,
its authority is strong, its beacons are high and
its destruction is difficult. You should therefore
honour it, follow it, fulfil its obligations and
accord the position due to it.
