" Every action, either physical or mental, every movement occurring either on the plane of gross matter or on the plane of the mind, causes an emission of energy- it produces a seed.
This seed, in the same way as all material seeds, tends,- given favourable circumstances- to produce a being of the same species as that of the parent who has transmitted the seed.
The seed of an oak tends to produce an oak; the seed of a dog , produces a dog .
Likewise, the innumerable energy seeds launched in the universe by Desire, Aversion, Love, Hatred.
All these seeds tend to reproduce the counterparts of their parents , either psychic or material."
Alexandra David-Neel and Lama Yongden. in "The Secret Oral Teaching In Tibetan Buddhist Sects".
I guess that's a seed of truth !
