Relation of Mind Activity to Bodily Activity




Thoughts Treated as Causes

But the materialist, too, may in accordance with his speculative theory continue to insist that brain-action is the “originating cause” of mental life; yet if the facts show that certain thoughts are invariably followed by certain bodily activities, the materialist may without violence to his theories agree to the great practical value of treating these thoughts as immediate causes, no matter what the history of creation may have been.

Whatever the brand of your materialism or your religious belief, you can join us in accepting this practical-science point of view as a common platform upon which to approach our second fundamental proposition, that “all bodily activity is caused, controlled and directed by the mind.”
