The art teacher tells the rude and cursing father of the dyslexic kid about *Solomon Islands..*
In those islands, if the tribal wants to remove the tree, the tribal don’t cut down a tree. *They surround the tree and curse it for hours every day..*
Within a few weeks, the tree dries up and becomes dead..
Many of us might find that example too difficult to believe. How can intangible and invisible thoughts and words kill a tree.!
Well, if you get to read Bruce H. Lipton’s THE BIOLOGY OF BELIEF, you won’t only believe in the Solomon Islands story, but would also think a dozen times before saying something demoralizing to yourself and the people you love. In this book, Mr. Lipton tells in detail about the power of conscious and subconscious mind..
The subconscious mind is million times more powerful than the conscious mind, and decides most of the things in our lives according to the beliefs it has..
Many times we fail to change an unpleasant habit despite our will-power and consistent efforts. It’s because the habit has been so strongly programmed in our subconscious mind that the efforts made by our conscious mind hardly make any difference.
*Conscious Mind is just a shadow* *of our Unconscious Mind..*
So, when the tribals of Solomon Islands curse a tree, they are actually installing negative and harmful beliefs in the tree’s emotion (yes, trees do have emotions too).
Within few days, those negative emotions becomes a belief & eventually changes the molecular architecture of the tree and kill it from inside..
Are we doing the same with ourselves? With our children? Something to think about.
The above tree example is from the bollywood movie "Taare Zameen par" ( Stars on Earth)
