The assumption here is that the thought-manifestators have perfect control over their thoughts and are all manifesting in a zero-sum game (eg a single prize that can't be shared).

Actually we don't have anything close to perfect control. If we did, we could already alter reality with direct miracles. Eg think "Lazarus, rise from the dead" or "walk on water".

It is actually a good thing that we do not have perfect control. For example, in some ancient schools of meditation, it is already known that you can manifest your intentions into reality (they don't use the same terminology, but the idea is there). However, the gurus will not teach such things to the students until the students have gone through years of ethical / moral training - you know, basic essential stuff like kindness, compassion and love.

Without such ethical grounding as a foundation, people who master IM may just go way wrong, manifesting things which they, as very flawed human beings, mistakenly think they want and are best for themselves.

Because, dear friends, in the end, it's not about winning the lottery, or earning a million dollars or having a great big house plus sports car and helicopter. In the end, it's still about kindness, compassion, love and all that.
