THOUGHTS
One of the most interesting men
in the United States Is a nerve spe
cialist whom I am fortunate enough
to count among my friends. The
other day he was called upon to
testify in the case of a woman who
had been paralyzed by falling from
a street-car.
She could not move an arm or a
leg. Needles thrust Into the flesh
produced no pain, and the other
customary tests all proved to the
satisfaction of the jurors that paral
ysis was complete.
She was awarded heavy damages
in spite of the testimony of my
friend, who was convinced that her
condition was entirely the result of
her own thinking. He took interest
enough in the case to follow U up,
and discovered that two days after
the award of damages the woman
had made a complete recovery.
"You will say she was faking," he
said in telling the story. "Was she?
I say to you that with all my know
ledge of the nervous system, I could
not produce in myself such a condi
tion. You couldn't do it. The wo
man herself could not do it again.
But the combination of the shock
and the thought was sufficient. She
knew she was paralyzed, and so she
was.
"I saw the same sort of thing again
and again in the war," he continued.
"There was a soldier who used to
have an epileptic fit regularly at the
stroke of seven every morning.
That was the hour when the heavy
shelling began, but his fits lasted
long after the war was over and
withstood all treatment I cured
him finally by a positive counter
suggestion. I said to him: 'There
is no form of epilepsy like this. I
have lived for years among epilep
tics and I know. You thought your
self into this condition; you can
think yourself out of It' ".
If a single thought is powerful
enough to paralyse an arm or make
a man epileptic, what are our
thoughts - good and bad doing to
us every day?
"To what base uses we put this
Ineffable intellect!" Emerson ex
claimed. "To reading all day mur
ders and railroad accidents, to
choosing patterns for waistcoats
and scarfa.
These are petty thoughts that frit
ter away power. What about the
destructive thoughts Jealousy, en
vy, hatred, fear?
By a change of thought the yeo
men of England became the un
conquerable army of Cromwell. By
a change of thought a handful of
fishermen of Palestine transformed
human history.
Because she "stirred people up to
think who had never taken it into
their head to think before," Mad
ame de Stael was banished from
France by Napoleon. He could ban
ish her, but he could not stop the
thinking. It broke him.
It can break or make us all.
