Am I alone in my universe?
 
If the LoA works because the universe is all in my mind and all of my conscious and subconscious desires play a role in determining what happens in my universe, this means that the people (that only exist in my mind) don't affect my universe. They can't. They are essentially made up. If they do anything, then it's really me acting through them.

If this is so, then how does group-manifestation work? I assume it would be a tool to make you trust success a bit more. But if you believe that the universe is all in your mind and those people don't really exist, then why do you feel the need to get help from those made up people to manifest anything? That would mean that you doubt that the universe is really in your mind.

Have you nothing more interesting or creative or useful to manifest but these threads?

From a subjective reality perspective, a group manifestation is about different aspects of the same consciousness cooperating towards achieving the same goal.

As an analogy, you could compare this, say, to the way that different cells & organs in the body work towards keeping the body functioning.

Do you sit somewhere all day and try to right paradoxical questions??

If everything is YOU.. why do you even care how it works.. play the limitation game and have fun.. that's what you came here to do.. not think all day.. jeezzz...

Another analogy could be Random Access Memory in a computer. The RAM is like consciousness.

The computer has a certain amount of RAM. Some RAM can be used for one process, some for another, and more for yet more processes.

But if all the RAM was used for one process or purpose (depending on the process), the process could be done more efficiently and quickly.

Group manifestation could be analogous to gathering up RAM (consciousness) to achieve a given purpose.
