Let this remain between us—a spirit such as this is still quite unevolved and stupid, and he may want to show off his prowess to man by producing some silly trick. When this happens, the man, if he has noticed it, will become duly impressed. Some other people will come around who have heard about the happenings around the rock. They will also witness the tricks, and pretty soon there is a cult going. This boosts the ego of the spirit of the rock immensely because the thoughts of the people who concentrate on him add to his power.

Let us look for a moment at the effect of thoughts on things or people. A thought is energy that causes the neurons in the brain to fire in a certain pattern. That naturally produces tiny currents along definite paths in the brain cortex that can be picked up with sensitive instruments through electrodes on the surface of the skull. In other words, a thought that starts out as a tiny stir eventually develops into a full-fledged thought producing at least a 70 milivolt potential somewhere in the cortex. It fires the first neuron, which in turn causes others to fire in a certain sequence. However, in this universe no energy is lost. If we can pick up the current produced by the thought outside the head, it means that the energy of the thought was broadcast in the form of electromagnetic waves, and at the velocity of light into the environment and, finally, into the cosmos.
