Mentalism along with its principles is one of the seven existing attributed to Hermes Trismegisto, who said he found them written on an emerald tablet. These principles are nothing more than universal truths discovered by the ancient Egyptians who were dedicated to the study of metaphysics, in order to understand and apply such knowledge and thus continue to advance in their lives.
The premise for the principle of mentalism is that everything is in the mind and that the essence of everything is behind appearances and expressions, which is known as matter, diversity or material universe, everything depends on how each individual wants to see it. Likewise, mentalism says that everything that is perceived by the five senses, receives the name of spirit, which is indefinable for the limitations of the human being but which in turn is understood as an omnipresent and infinite mind.
Although the principle of mentalism is somewhat complex, it implies many limitations that the human being cannot explain, since according to all the phenomena that the world experiences are a mental creation and that if the individual understands the laws that govern it, he may have a development and full well-being. Mentalism really shows what is the essence of energy, force, as well as matter, indicating that all of them are under the domain of the mind.
Some principles of mentalism are:
- Focus your gaze on everything around you, observing in detail so that in the end nothing surprises you.
- Human creation is nothing more than an idea that came from someone's mind, since everything comes from it and is indisputable.
- The individual perceives the things of which he is aware, that is why consciousness is the creator of everything that surrounds us.
- You must be aware of the thoughts, created by the reality around you.
Thus, mentalism is all that previously created by the mind of each person. Everything that comes to life is because each individual has previously attracted it with their mind. For some people life is wonderful, they feel happy. For others life is just suffering, struggle, effort and calamity. What differentiates them is their mind, their way of thinking, feeling, acting and speaking. That is why think positive and everything will turn out as you had thought.
