Hehe, I browsed through some old articles by Pavlina. And one of them started with:

Quote:
If you drink a lot of water during your workday like I do, you probably find yourself getting up from your desk several times during the day to get more water.
Talk about going from concrete to abstract!

@Bix: I think Bruce is implying that in order to criticize the intention-manifstation model you should first live it. Try the paradigm, just buy it for the moment, look at the results and then discuss it. This is really how all religious and (some) philosophical groups want you to do and that's both a curse and a blessing.

Personally I've done this and I think "subjective reality" has some merit but I also reckon that Pavlina is really just describing a philosophy close to "Buddhism Light". A lot of things are missing. At least that's what it looks like to me.
