    Hi,

    It has been interesting to observe in myself that thoughts and ideas
    seem to have a magnetic quality to them. For me this is particularly
    noticeable in meditation, when I'm detaching from the stream of
    thoughts. I find that when I begin to actually think a thought, it's
    because the "seed thought" attaches to my feelings and underlying
    beliefs in a way that is very similar to watching two magnets come
    together.

    To use another analogy, it's like my feelings and beliefs are the
    nourishing soil that allows certain thoughts to flourish and others
    to die.

    But that's interesting, somehow I missed that statement of Bardon's.
    I'll have to ruminate more on that one ...

    David
