Manifesting:
Redefining the Boundaries

If you want to live an abundant life you need to understand how to
manifest. Some people just intuitively live it. They inherently know
how to attract what they want into their lives. Others struggle, and the
harder they struggle the more difficult it becomes. They have
inadvertently set up a cycle of attracting 'what they don't want'.
Once you understand the Laws of Manifestation, the process of attracting
abundance becomes easy. You can then attract what you want.
THE FOUNDATION
Everything has its own energy and vibration. In order for anything to
be created it must start as energy, intention or thought. An artist's
inspiration may be fueled by emotion or passion. That's an emotional
energy. Manifestation translates the energy from one plane to
another. The artist manifests by taking emotional energy and creating an
art form (e.g., paintings, sculpture). He has manifested this by taking it
from a level of consciousness and translating it into a physical form.
THE PHASES
There are four levels of manifestation: physical, emotional, mental and
soul level. Each level builds on the previous one.
- The Physical level is about some form of work to bring about
manifestation (i.e., have a job and pay the bills). On this level we
work with social, religious, economic and natural laws. Social and
economic laws determine the common currency used by society. Religious
laws provide a baseline for the ethics that drive society. They act as
a conduit between the Source and us. Natural laws are the laws that
govern our world (e.g., the growing cycles, the weather, the length of a
day).
- The Emotional level is about using feeling energies, and
indirectly physical energies to bring about change that might not be possible
solely on the physical level (e.g., bring about renewed health or money into
your life).
- The Mental level is about positive thoughts and
imagery. In learning the laws of the mind (primarily concentration and
imagination) and applying them to foster your ability to manifest, you grow
from child to co-creator. The techniques at this level revolve around
'right use' of thought.
- The Soul level is about knowing and experiencing the
difference between personality and soul. The soul does not experience
need or lack the way the personality does.
Seeing manifestation as simply a tool to get more 'things' negates its
essence to transform consciousness; turning it into a weapon for control and
manipulation. Instead of using it to impose your own will, use it as a tool
of expression to allow yourself to achieve greater potential. Use these
principles to develop your own vision, increase consciousness and to understand
that 'we are all part of the whole'.
THE OBSTACLES
To truly manifest you must change from being a passive receiver to becoming a
creator. Create from a centred place not from scarcity, control or
manipulation. While you may be able to attract things to yourself, this
does not necessarily make you a manifestor. Are you doing it to feed
personality and not soul? You must simply re-learn to be yourself.
Being is the key manifestation. Trust and the universe will provide for
you. You will automatically attract to yourself whatever you need in any
given moment.
THE PROCESS
Identify what you need. Does the need stem from a lack or does it come
from wanting to create? It's important to know yourself and identify your
intention because that is what you will manifest. It's okay to meet your
own needs when that in turn will allow you to help others. Beware the
personality.
Try to discover why you want to manifest? What will you do with
this? Perhaps you need it, perhaps you don't. Get a strong sense of
your intention whether it's people, things, or circumstances. Remember,
that's where you're aligning yourself. Get a sense of who or what you need
and allow that to come to you.
A key principle of manifesting is changing the paradigm we erect for
ourselves. We now become a creator, not just a bystander. We are
part of the whole; we do not travel alone on this journey. If our
manifestation is good for us and for others, then we start being part of the
solution. If we all become part of the solution, this could catch on.
