    1) A man's circumstances are shaped by his thoughts; as he changes his thoughts, his circumstances change accordingly. 2) By cultivating positive thoughts and removing negative thoughts, a man shapes his character and destiny, and gains control over his life and circumstances. 3) A man's outer world, including his circumstances, are a reflection of his inner mental state and thoughts; as he changes his thinking, he changes his life experiences.

    The key takeaways are that a person's thoughts shape their character and circumstances, and that by taking control of one's thoughts one can take control of one's life.

    The text describes that a person's thoughts shape their inner character, and their inner character then shapes their outer circumstances. Circumstances are said to be 'harmoniously related' to a person's inner state.

    The text says a person can cultivate their mind like a garden, by weeding out negative thoughts and cultivating positive thoughts. It also refers to pursuing self-control and self-purification.

    Effect of Thought on Circumstances

    Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside


    conditions, but when he realizes that he is a creative power, and that he may command the
    hidden soil and seeds of his being out of which circumstances grow, he then becomes the
    rightful master of himself.

    Presented by HAJI MOHAMAD HANIM MOHAMAD ISA


    A man's mind may be likened to a
    garden, which may be intelligently
    cultivated or allowed to run wild;
    but whether cultivated or
    neglected, it must, and will, bring
    forth. If no useful seeds are put
    into it, then an abundance of
    useless weed seeds will fall therein,
    and will continue to produce their
    kind.
    Just as a gardener cultivates his plot, keeping it free from weeds, and growing
    the flowers and fruits which he requires, so may a man tend the garden of his
    mind, weeding out all the wrong, useless, and impure thoughts, and cultivating
    toward perfection the flowers and fruits of right, useful, and pure thoughts.

    By pursuing this process, a man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-
    gardener of his soul, the director of his life. he also reveals, within himself, the
    laws of thought, and understands, with ever-increasing accuracy, how the
    thought-forces and mind-elements operate in the shaping of his character,
    circumstances, and destiny.
    Thought and character are one,
    and as character can only manifest
    and discover itself through
    environment and circumstance, the
    outer conditions of a person's life
    will always be found to be
    harmoniously related to his inner
    state. This does not mean that a
    man's circumstances at any given
    time are an indication of his entire
    character, but that those
    circumstances are so intimately
    connected with some vital
    thought-element within him that,
    for the time being, they are
    indispensable to his development.
    Every man is where he is by the law of his being; the thoughts which he has built into his
    character have brought him there, and in the arrangement of his life there is no element
    of chance, but all is the result of a law which cannot err. This is just as true of those who
    feel "out of harmony" with their surroundings as of those who are contented with them.
    As the progressive and evolving being,
    man is where he is that he may learn that
    he may grow; and as he learns the
    spiritual lesson which any circumstance
    contains for him, it passes away and gives
    place to other circumstances.

    That circumstances grow out of


    thought every man knows who has for
    any length of time practiced self-control
    and self-purification, for he will have
    noticed that the alteration in his
    circumstances has been in exact ratio
    with his altered mental condition. So true
    is this that when a man earnestly applies
    himself to remedy the defects in his
    character, and makes swift and marked
    progress, he passes rapidly through a
    succession of vicissitudes.
    The soul attracts that
    which it secretly harbors;
    that which it loves, and also
    that which it fears; it reaches
    the height of its cherished
    aspirations; it falls to the level
    of its unchastened desires;
    and circumstances are the
    means by which the soul
    receives its own. Every
    thought-seed sown or
    allowed to fall into the mind,
    and to take root there,
    produces its own, blossoming
    sooner or later into act, and
    bearing its own fruitage of
    opportunity and
    circumstances. Good
    thoughts bear good fruit, bad
    thoughts bad fruit.
    The outer world of circumstance shapes itself to the inner world of thought, and both
    pleasant and unpleasant external conditions are factors which make for the ultimate good
    of the individual. As the reaper of his own harvest, man learns both by suffering and bliss.
    Following the inmost desires, aspirations, and thoughts, by which he allows him to be
    dominated a man at last arrives at their fruition and fulfillment in the outer condition of his
    life.
