Therefore, every time you say "I am ill," or think "I am ill," are you not helping the illness to materialise? because the power of thought, which you cannot deny as the initial cause of every action, has then been turned to aid the condition of ill health. Supposing for some cause you really are ill, why then help this evil state to augment by your thoughts?
But Kennedy was importunate and at last she consented to see if "John" would do some rapping, even if he could not materialise. Kennedy asked to be permitted to put the questions. "Are you the 'John' who appears to Mr. Vandam every night at twelve-thirty?" Rap! rap! rap! came the faint reply from the cabinet.
A sense has undoubtedly been developed in him, an instinct has been awakened, one or two of his mental faculties have been vigorously cultivated; but his training has been the reverse of humanising; and as his studies and his consequent attitude towards Nature have been essentially analytical, he may, in the absence of those correctives which his compulsory specialising has withheld from him, have learned to regard the dead side of things as the real side, a conception which, if it mastered him, would materialise his whole outlook on life.
Thus the Hartley Mission did not materialise until three months had elapsed. Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, Vol.
It might be too novel a plan for the Church to take up officially, but she thought wealthy men in Scotland might materialise her vision as a thank-offering. The Government road went as far as Odoro Ikpe, where a Rest House, used as a shelter by officials on the march or on judging tours, and the one seen by Mr. Macgregor, had been built on the brow of a hill above the township.
She waited an instant for these tints to materialise, but Miss Howe's smile slid discreetly into her wineglass instead. "There's immense picturesqueness in the Philippines," she went on, her look of thoughtful criticism contrasting in the queerest way with her hat. "Real ecclesiastical tyranny with pure traditions. One wonders what America will do with those friars, when she does go there."
Nor is the illusion involved in fabulous thinking always so complete and opaque as convention would represent it. In taking fable for fact, good sense and practice seldom keep pace with dogma. There is always a race of pedants whose function it is to materialise everything ideal, but the great world, half shrewdly, half doggedly, manages to escape their contagion.
In him theology, however speculative, remains a vehicle for living piety; and while he has, perhaps, done more than any other man to materialise Christianity, no one was ever more truly filled with its spirit. Saint Augustine was a thorough Platonist, but to reach that position he had to pass in his youth through severe mental struggles.
I know full well how instructions are issued and how little the pawns really count.... The despatches from the Chancelleries of Europe, how grotesque they can be! Everybody is always so afraid of everybody else. Yet while I was thinking these things, K was not. He was secretly worried, as he rode, whether L 's promise would materialise, or whether there would be another impasse.
And then about the Letter. "I get the whole thing a bit clearer now," he said. "Of course, it is still cloudy in places. The making up somebody to write to is understandable, under the circumstances. But it is odd to have had the very Person materialise, so to speak. It makes me wonder well, how about burning the Letter, now we've got it? It would be better, I think.
