In the atmosphere there are many chemical elements, but one must not be surprised to learn that thought brings other chemical ingredients into the atmosphere. Each thought emanates a special kind of chemical element or affects the existing chemical elements and changes them into a new kind of chemical element. These new elements are the products of thought. Some of them are very beneficial elements. Some of them are extremely destructive. Both kinds of elements stay a long time in the atmosphere or create various influences upon all life-forms.
Thoughts directed to the Common Good, toward perfection and progressive unfoldments; thoughts dedicated to bringing man closer to the source of beauty emanate those chemical elements which heal, enlighten, and strengthen the human being. Those thoughts which are charged with separatism, exploitation, and hatred emanate poisonous fumes.
The chemical emanations of our lofty thoughts stay with our pens, pencils, typewriters, books, and many other objects we use. They stay for a long time and cause improvement in the chemistry of the objects and in the chemistry of those who touch them and use them. The chemistry of thoughts stays within the building we lived in and affects the chemistry of the auras of those who visit us or who live there after us.
This is why the Teaching strongly advises us to emanate fragrance and beauty through our thoughts, rather than poisonous fumes and ugliness through them.
