We call the surrounding medium of the Earth atmosphere (at-most-fear). It seems more reasonable to call it Mind; as Intelligence guides the Earth, as well as the rest of the universe, in such exact time and movement, and keeps all paths straight. Common sense should teach us that the Earth, in and of itself, has not this Intelligence; nor has it, in and of itself, the power to give to each plant and tree its own peculiarity of taste, color, and outline. Neither has a non-intelligent atmosphere this power. Without Intelligence there might be collisions in Nature's plans, which Mind alone can prevent.
We have, in our dreams, the proof that mind creates all sorts of things, and that without the assistance of anything material to construct them from; although to the dreamer all things are material and lifelike. Since all material things are outside of the dream, how can the same things be confined inside of the dreamer's head? In like manner Divine Mind creates everything without material aid.
Mind is the surrounding medium in which all things exist. In the Creation, God made man in His own image and after His likeness, and gave him general dominion. If mortal man is controlled most by fear, then his surrounding influence is really at-most-fear (atmosphere).
