Tonight I had a moment of inspiration (or delusion?) when I wrote in a journal what flowed to me. It's my attempt to fine tune Max's great contribution. It may be seriously flawed and I stake no claim to originality whatsoever. All honest (and even critical) assessments are welcomed and appreciated. So here it goes:
The root of all states of being and of having is CHOOSING to ASSUME that which has yet to physically materialize. (Read again and again.)
Thus the process of creation is:
1) Choose what you want to have or be.
2) Assume it as fact.
3) Act accordingly thru the power of your will.
4) Observe it's manifestation.
5) Then it shall be known (proven) to be true.
The key differences between this and Max's approach are:
A) "Assuming" being the second step instead of "knowing".
B) "Knowing" as the last step.
C) Added step of action thru the power of your will (William Walker Atkinson's influence on me.) as opposed to "getting out of the way".
Max's general theory is:
"Choosing what you want, knowing to be so and trusting it to be so, choose it and get out of the way". Or "Make a choice, let it go, get out of the way and enjoy the observation."
My theory is guided by my recent experiences. When I chose to assume that I was ....... and acted like it was so, people around me acted differently as if it were so and thru my observation I now know it to be true. When I chose to assume that I attracted ....... and acted like it was so, it came into my experience and thru my observation I now know it to be true.
Thank you again Max for your insight and by posting this I mean no disrespect to your great contributions to this forum. I'm just trying to discover the truth wherever it may be found by whomever or whatever means.  |
