The Cell-theory and the Thoughts
A cell is a mass of protoplasm with a nucleus. It is endowed with intelligence. Some cells
secrete, while some cells excrete. The cells of the testes secrete semen; the cells of the kidneys
excrete urine. Some cells act the part of a soldier. They defend the body from the inroads or
attacks of foreign poisonous matter and germs. They digest and throw them out. Some cells carry
food materials to the tissues and organs.
The cells perform their work without your conscious volition. Their activities are
controlled by the sympathetic nervous system. They are in direct communion with the mind in
the brain.
Every impulse of the mind, every thought, is conveyed to the cells. They are greatly
influenced by the varying conditions or states of the mind. If there are confusion, depression and
other negative emotions and thoughts in the mind, they are telegraphically transmitted through
the nerves to every cell in the body. The soldier-cells become panic-stricken. They are weakened.
They are not able to perform their function properly. They become inefficient.

Some people are extremely body-conscious, and possess no idea of the Self. They live
irregular, indisciplined lives and fill their stomachs with sweets, pastries, and so on. There is no
rest for the digestive and the eliminating organs. They suffer from physical weakness and
diseases. The atoms, molecules and cells in their bodies produce discordant or inharmonious
vibrations. They have no hope, confidence, faith, serenity and cheerfulness. They are unhappy.
The life-force is not operating properly. Their vitality is at a low ebb. Their mind is filled with
fear, despair, worry and anxiety.
