Taking Shape

"Just as a gardener cultivates his plot, keeping it free from weeds, and growing the flowers and fruits which he/she requires, so may a person tend the garden of his/her 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 person sooner or later discovers that he/she is the master gardener of his or her soul, the director of their life. He or she also reveals, within themselves, the laws of thought, and understands with ever-increasing accuracy, how the thought forces and mind elements operate in the shaping of one's character, circumstances, and destiny."

Jaye Allen
