I quoted directly out of the book in my last post, that it's your desires and beliefs that must be a vibrational match in order to receive what you desire (page 29).
There is nothing in this book about "you should be on the same vibrational level as source" or "you should be on the same vibrational level as that which you desire." There's nothing in here about reducing your desires by increments.
There is a bit about how you can tell you're on the right track, you can tell you are allowing a full connection to Source Energy: the better you feel, the more you are allowing connection. So, that's an indicator -- how you can tell if your beliefs and desires are harmonizing, not something you "do." |
Angela, I know I must be sounding critical of the book, but I actually thought it was very good. I have posted the points I am struggling with to understand because I do really want to believe that the book is true.
You say 'There is nothing in this book about "you should be on the same vibrational level as source"'.
Well, how about
:
Page 22:
"You can feel whether you are allowing your full connection to Source Energy or not".
Page 57:
"Every emotion that you feel is about your alignment or misalignment with the Energy of your Source".
Page 88:
"... for when you are in a state of joy, happiness, or appreciation,you are fully connected to the Stream of pure, positive, Source Energy".
Page 103:
"Remember, you are an extension of Source Energy, and when you are allowing your full connectionto your Source, you feel good".
Page 113:
"When you remember that your emotions indicate your degree of alignmnet with Source Energy and that the better you feel , the more you are allowing your alignment with the things you desire".
Page 137 (speaking about the processes):
"The closer you are, right now, to vibrational alignment with your own Source of Well-Being, the more effective the lower numbered techniques will be in helping you to fully realign".
You say: There is nothing in this book about ... "you should be on the same vibrational level as that which you desire." How about
:
Page 15:
"The reason you have not already gotten what you desire is because you are holding yourself in a vibrational holding pattern that does not match the vibration of your desire".
Page 25:
"... you must then find ways of holding yourself consistently in vibrational harmony with those desires in order to receive their manifestation".
Page 26:
"The key to bringing something into your experience that you desire is to achieve vibrational harmony with what you desire".
Page 27:
"So if you are predominantly thinking about the things that you desire, your life experience reflects those things".
Page 27:
"... the vibration of your being begins to reflect the vibration of that which you are giving your attention to."
Page 99:
"Yes, when you ask, it is always given, but you must be in vibrational harmony with what you are asking for before you can let it into your experience".
You say: There's nothing in here about reducing your desires by increments.
How about
:
Page 136: "You can only attract thoughts within your vibrational range".
The whole of chapter 18, starting on page 91, "You can gradually change your vibrational frequency".
