When a person prepares something, he not only places his magnetism in it, but the voice of his soul is reproduced in the thing that he is preparing. For example, for an intuitive person it is not difficult to determine the thoughts of the cook based on the food offered to him. Not only the level of development of the cook, but also what he thought about at that particular moment when he was preparing food - everything is reproduced in it. If the cook was annoyed while cooking, if she grumbled, if she felt unhappy, if she sighed in grief, all this appears before us along with the food she prepared. It is the knowledge of this fact that makes the Hindus invite as a cook a high caste Brahmin, whose evolution is high, whose life is pure, whose thoughts are lofty. This is not only a custom of the past, it is a modern custom: Brahmin,who is sometimes a Guru - a teacher for other castes - may also be a cook.
In addition, in ancient times, when the human personality was strongly manifested in everything that she did, each person, regardless of the degree of his life situation, knew how to cook and prepare dishes for himself and for his friends; and the one who invited relatives or friends to his house and put in front of them his own prepared dishes, thereby showed a sign of great respect and affection. The main thing was not the dish; the main thing was the thought placed in it.
Nowadays, life seems to leave out a lot of personal things. But whether in the East or in the West, there was a time when the art of weaving or knitting clothes was known to every little girl; and it was a custom to give a brother or sister, a lover or a relative some little thing made with your own hands. Now the item is easy to buy in the store; no one knows who made it and how: reluctantly and with a grumbling or otherwise. Now it remains a mystery in what state the worker was at that moment and what he invested in the objects he created. The girl, while sewing for the one she loves, with every stitch she makes naturally conveys her thought; if she does the work with love and strong feeling, then each stitch creates a new thought; he expresses this living thought of love,internally thereby providing the help that every soul needs.
Everything that has ever been created carries a magnetic influence. If the work was done with unnecessary thought, it means dangers awaiting people on the ship, in the train car or in the car. Very often you find problems that have no apparent reason, as if something broke without any material reason. The thought of destruction was introduced into the creation of this thing. She works through her; it is something more alive than the thing itself. The same thing happens when a house is being built. Thoughts are given to it by those who built it, who worked on the project - everything counts.
Thought attached to things is a life force, more precisely, it can be called a vibrational force. In the concept of the mystics, it is believed that vibrations can have three aspects: audibility, visibility and perceptibility. So, vibrations placed in an object are never visible or audible; they are only tangible. Perceptible for what? For human intuitive ability. But this does not mean that the one who has lost the intuitive ability does not feel them, he also feels them, but unconsciously.
In short, this means that there is a thought associated with all things done individually or collectively, and this thought brings the corresponding results.
Influence placed on things corresponds to the intensity of the feeling. The note resonates according to the intensity of the impact on it. If you just play a note on the piano, it will continue to resonate for a certain amount of time; but if you press a key with a lower intensity, it will resonate for a shorter time. Resonance corresponds to the strength with which you strike the key, but at the same time depends on the instrument on which you play the note.
For one instrument, the strings will vibrate for a long time; the other has a short one. And the resonance is also influenced by the way you choose to excite the vibrations, with the help of which the effect is produced.

God exists in all things; but an object is only an instrument, and a person is life itself. The person fills the object with life. When a certain thing is created, it is at this time that life is invested in it, which goes on and on, like breathing in the body. It also gives us a hint that when we bring flowers to the sick person and together with them we bring him a healing thought, the flowers convey that thought; and when a sick person looks at flowers, he receives from them the healing that was put into them.
All food or delicacies, everything that we bring to a friend with the thought of love, can lead to a harmonious, happy result. This means that every little thing, given or received with love, with a harmonious and good thought, is of great value. Because it’s not the subject matter, but what is behind it. Does this not teach us that it is not only the creation or manufacture of things in our daily life that matters, but also the giving of these things with a harmonious, constructive thought so that our work can have a thousand times greater effect and real value?
This teaches us that by creating a certain thing, we are doing something very important, if we do it with such an attitude that we do not just create this thing, but make it live. Doesn't this open up before us a wide field of activity that we can perform easily, without much effort or high cost? In terms of its results, such work can be much more important than one might think or imagine.
