How can you do whats already done?


Neville Goddard spoke of "I AM".

Neville Goddard spoke of "I AM".
It's the ability to say "I am" what I desire right now. Not in the future, not in the past, but right now it is done.

Those of you that embrace Eckhart Tolle's teachings will recognize "being in the now".
" I am rich." right now.
" I am healed" right now.
You have to believe it, even though you don't see it.

What is it Wayne Dyer says " You'll see it when you believe it." ?
"And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." Matthew 21:22
Believing though is the key right? How can you when everyone and everything says " No!" ?
Well, I don't recall anyone saying it's easy.
If you lived in the mountains alone and no one bothered you, maintaining focus would be easier. But most likely you don't. You live in a city or town where you have people, TV, movies and in my opinion the worse downers of them all, news and commercials.
What do you do?
You maintain.
Using the term " fight" seems out of place, but it is a fight within yourself.

The Warrior has awakened. He surveys the war raging before him. He sees the teaming legions mounted against him.
Facing immeasurable odds, he draws his sword and smiles. In a low voice he says to himself...."They are doomed now."

You have to remember, you have already won the war.
Right now.

Thank you Father

If you read my last post and read Walt's comment below it, you might have discovered something.
I know I did.
Someone once said (And I can't remember who it was right now) that to achieve happiness, you have to be able to be happy living in a mansion, or a cardboard box.
Maybe the key here is attachment. You get too attached to the outcome.
"I want a million dollars." Is that what it takes to make you happy?
Or can you be happy looking into the eyes of a baby, or a puppy, or a kitten?
"For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" Matthew 16:26
I know I've mentioned this before, but Neville Goddard said the most effective prayer was "Thank you Father."
The Ho'oponopono "chant" is "I love you, I'm sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you."
I want or I need isn't anywhere in there is it?
Maybe just Thanking is the best way.
"I want a million dollars." okay, what if God wanted you to have a billion?
"I want a new car." What if God wanted you to have a new car with a chauffeur to drive you?
(Again I was raised in a Christian faith, I say "God" because it's comfortable to me. You say what ever name you wish. Actually I think God is too big to be given limiting names.)
Now the true test is to be able to say "Thank you Father." when life kicks you in the teeth.
Oh it will.
In the past year I have gone through the loss of my mother, a big car wreck, cancer and major surgery. I still have the effects of the twelve weeks of chemotherapy I went through. I can't feel my hands or feet.
Is it easy to say " Thank you Father" during and after all that?
No.
But do you just give up?
Or do you,as they say,"Let go and let God"?
Maybe the way we overcome our obstacles is to let go.
Very Zen-like huh?
Don't be obsessive, don't fixate.
Go about you regular life with a quiet "knowing" that the things you desire will come to pass.
Don't worry about the how.
And thank your creator for it.
Even when you don't see it.
Right now.

Law of Attraction: Opposites Attract?

I have a question I have never heard addressed in all the talk about manifesting reality.
They say the law of attraction is built on scientific laws and principals, that like attracts like.
Ummmm...doesnt Coulomb's Law state that equal charges repulse and different charges attract?
Following that, if I think positive, I'll attract negative things.
But if I think negative, I'll attract positive things.

Law of Attraction: Opposites Attract?


I'm not trying to be a smart aleck here, it's just that I have this nasty habit of researching things.
I dont have a problem with Faith based LOA, thats something that cant be defined in scientific principles.
But if you start saying something is scientifically accurate, people can check that.
How did "Like attracts like" become one of the spiritual laws of the universe?

And just what are the spiritual laws of the Universe?
Shouldn't it be Spiritual Theories?
I'm sure Neville Goddard, Aleister Crowley and Billy Graham all have/had different views on what spiritual " law" is/was.

Any ideas?

There wasn't a cover charge for the Sermon on the Mount was there?

You know when I first started reading about Neville Goddard, I could hardly find anything on him.
Now a Google Search gives about 299,000 hits for him.
Of course that's nothing compared to the 3,230,000 you get for Eckhart Tolle, but Neville has never been on Oprah.
One good thing is that almost all (if not all) of Neville's teachings are available online for free. All you need is an internet connection. Neville even has a page at Wikipedia now.
I noticed him mentioned in passing in the Secret. " In passing" might be best, because a lot of his teachings are "uncomfortable" to some people. They need to be approached with a fresh and open mind.
As always though read such writings with a grain of salt. Read his theories and evaluate them for yourself. One thing that always impressed me about him was his constant call to test his teachings. Apply them and see what they do for you. Don't just accept blindly.
" I tried Neville's teachings and they didn't work."
" I tried the Secret and it didn't work."
" I tried sigils and they didn't work."
Well move on, explore. Suppose you were the world's greatest guitarist, but you spent your whole life trying and failing to master the violin. Explore, pick up that guitar, you never know what might happen.
By the way, it anyone comes up with a 100 percent fool-proof manifesting technique that works for everyone, let me know.
I'll be more than happy to post it.
And it better not be a book you can order for 299.99 either. If it is, we can already see your manifesting technique.
I don't think there was a cover charge for the Sermon on the Mount was there?

Remember, as Aerosmith said, " Lifes a journey, not a destination."

The Top Five Manifesting Reality Links

The Top Five Manifesting Reality Links

You Already Know How to Manifest Reality!
The simple truth is this. You can manifest reality, you are already doing it everyday, except. That's not the reality you want, right?
http://www.how-to-manifest-your-desires.com/how-to-manifest-reality.html

I've experimented with conscious manifesting techniques for 13 years now. For 5 years I have taught others the tools that I myself have learned in a course called 'Manifesting Results'. Some people come to the course with a preconception that I'm going to teach them how to manifest. The bad news is that I'm not going to do that. The good news is that you already DO manifest everything in your life. You always have.

At some level, each of us has always known that we have attracted people, things, and events into our lives based on our thoughts. The recognition of that is in our daily speech, such phrases as; "What you put your attention on grows", "Be careful what you wish (pray) for" etc.

It’s an uncanny phenomenon but it’s true: The Universe has a way of supporting those who get crystal clear on what they want and then wholeheartedly go after it.

It’s September, and the leaves have slowly been changing color the last couple weeks in Portland. I’ve been going through some changes myself, and I’m sure all of you are going through changes as well. One of my changes is a realization that I need to be really authentic about where I’m coming from in order to be a great coach for my clients. Since I started this business in April, it’s gone through some changes as I’ve been trying to figure out what my niche is and how I should represent myself.
