Why Brilliant People Have Human Relations Problems?

by Catherine Ponder

Often a person learns about the power of thought and happily begins to develop it in constructive ways. Then human relations problems appear. This indicates that mind power is being given an opportunity to be balanced through love. When it is, problems are resolved and a happier way of life appears.

If you know people who have developed a knowledge of the power of thought, yet are faced with human relations problems, your first reaction may be, "if they are so knowledgeable in this way of thinking, why are they having these problems?"

It is because they are so advanced mentally that they have those problems! They are having to do their emotional homework, so that their mind power can be balanced by love. They are "getting practice out of it."

In your own experiences, do not turn your back on human relations problems when they appear. Do not try to by-pass them. Meet them non resistantly with love, so that a balancing process may take place in your interior nature. This balancing process will always lead you into a life of more expanded good.

Your growth and expansion come in phases of normality. First you gain knowledge of the creative power of thought and begin to use it mentally. Then human relations problems often arise so that you may prove it in the heart, emotionally. Indeed, there is no balance in your consciousness until love and wisdom are united in you, and reflected in your life. The sages of old used to teach their students to declaree often, "let love and wisdom be united in me."

If you have been mentally fighting something in your life, rest your overworked mind. Think, instead, in terms of love and peace. As you practiced doing this daily, the results will amaze you!
