Default Consciousness creates effortlessly

Have you noticed that the best and quickest manifestations are created effortlessly? Last week I had two interesting things appear in my life after thinking about them for only a minute or two. I was at my mother's house and needed $25 for something, I didn't have any money on me. I didn't tell anyone I needed the money, it's just something I thought about for a couple of minutes and then let it go. About 30 minutes later, I was doing the dishes and my mother comes in and tells me she just found $50 on the sidewalk. The money was all dirty and it was two $20 bills and two $5 bills. She says "here, take half" and gives me $25.

A few days later, I decide to try to manifest a red car passing on the street where I live. So I'm looking out the window, I close my eyes and I visualize for about a minute a red car passing by, I wasn't thinking of a particular brand but I had a specific image of what the car looked like besides the color. So I wait and wait, no red car. A blue car passes by, then a white one, then two gray cars. So I tell myself this won't work, it's a waste of time and I decide to go work on my computer. About 10 minutes later, the exact car I had visualized, passes by on the street behind my house. It was red and looked EXACTLY like the one I had pictured in my mind and had forgotten about. I got a lesson: visualize what you want but don't tell the universe how to give it to you. I wanted the car to pass on the street in front of my house and got discouraged when it didn't and then boom, it passes by on the street behind my house lol.

These aren't incredible manifestations but I noticed how effortless they were. I had a thought and a feeling both times, then let it go completely, forgot about it and the manifestations occured within minutes. I didn't even have to believe it was possible, just the intention alone made it happen. I wonder if we are overly complicating the LOA when it's actually quite simple?

Congratulations! You now know everything there is to know about the LoA.

Takes most of us a lot longer to get there, however. Respect.

I have noticed that too. When I desire to have or see something and I forget my intention, it manifests in a totally unexpected way. This happens always to me, specially when the intention is more "realistic".

I assume that the same happens with "big things", however this kind of manifestations demands more adjustments in the Universe, so this entails more time.

Here's an interesting article about intending and letting go:

Holistic Manifesting With Conscious And Subconscious Mind

And here's a video of Deepak Chopra talking about the LOA:

That's pretty cool I always love hearing these stories. So what's different between seeing something and having something ?

I think it's just a matter of belief. Just a stronger belief with no doubts.

I'm just curious. Your method that worked for you was that you set out the intention and felt the reality of it. Then just totally forgot about it.


Personally my opinion was that you actually need to feel it like your saying, but actually believe more. For my intention about a certain lifestyle to come true, I just walk around feeling good about how I'm having it.

Your way of forgetting and mine is of thinking about it a lot.

Anyone have any ideas ?

I wonder this too. People often draw up a list of very complicated guidelines about IM, but I have always wondered why sometimes I can casually toss an intention out into the ether and *poof* there it is.

I actually also noticed too that if I really, really FEEL something, it's quicker to manifest. I heard from a LOA teacher (Esther Hicks???) that "you have to find the resonance of your creation before it manifests." Basically, when we feel as if we have our desires BEFORE they manifest, and stop wanting them, we communicate "having" to the Universe and get that back.

Interestingly too, I've also noticed that those desires that I intend and forget about also manifest quickly to the point that sometimes I forget that I even intended it. I think it's because we're so unattached to the outcome by not even thinking about it that it's able to manifest quicker.

I was also curious, this way of manifestation that you speak of, is this method what CONSISTENTLY gets your desires to manifest? Has this worked for you consistently?

Last week, I manifested a free bus ticket completely effortlessly. I was sitting on a bus and thought about getting the next bus ticket for free. It was just a random thought. I wasn't trying to manifest it or anything, just thought that maybe, if I don't ask for a discount ticket like I always do, I'll get a free ticket. lol Then I completely forgot about it.

I got out of the bus and went to the bus station to buy a new ticket. I asked for a discount ticket and showed a document that allows me to get a discount. The ticket saleswoman handed me a ticket and, lo and behold, the price was a big round zero. Thank you Universe!

I'm talking more about specific intentions and not lifestyles. Lifestyle to me is very vague whereas $25 is very specific.

I'm quite new at manifestation but yes, every time something manifested it was via the "intend and let go" method. Like the holistic manifestation article says, there's a misconception that thoughts are creative and that the more you think about something, the quicker it's going to manifest. I think this may be why many people are frustrated with the LOA and they end up buying a whole bunch of books hoping that they will find a better technique that will allow them to stay positive and focused on their desire all the time. I see thoughts as the spark and consciousness as the creator. Consciousness has nothing to do with the thinking process.

I don't have to think about my car. I know it's there so I don't think about it. If you know something to be true, there's no need to constantly think and obsess about it. Thinking positively about your desire implies that you don't have it because if you did, you wouldn't constantly have to think about it. Manifestating is about "knowing". You set the intention and you know that it will appear. It's effortless.

I think so. It has in my experience at least. I was thinking about BMW's while I watched The Transporter. Almost became an obsession. I just really wanted one. So i started looking and a lot of them were too much money.

So one day I got on Autotrader and all of a sudden there was this miracle deal.


2001 BMW 530i with low miles compared to other 2001's I wanted. nice rims, and this one was more powerful.


I was looking at a 528i with more miles, more money and less power.

The 530i had been posted a day before I went and looked at it. While test driving it we arrived back at the dealership and the salesgirl told me that while we were out, they had received 3 other calls from people seeing if it was still available.


In the end, all of my focus on me owning a BMW ended up with me now driving a 2001 BMW 530i with more power, less miles, nicer rims, and I spent thousands of dollars less than I would have spent on other cars.

My LOA idea: How can you experience something in your reality if you never think about it ? I'm to the point where my desire is embodied in me. I feel it as part of myself. It's something I have to do in life.

I've said it on other posts but I'll say it again here: my quickest & most reliable way to manifest is to Ask. Receive. Even "believing" part gets in the way. That's just me. But yes, when I think about something ("wouldn't it be nice") and forget about it, it manifests within 24 hours. I'm adding my voice for anyone else who might be frustrated because they don't know how to build a vision board, or can't say a mantra "right" or are frustrated because they can't convince themselves that they already have it. I've been that person. But then I remembered I created with great ease when I was younger (before I started reading all of these books and complicating it.) and I did it but simply wanting it & continuing on with my day.

Concrete things I've manifested like this include several apartments (for no rent) several computers, an iPod, lots of lots of cash that was needed immediately. Now when I panic because there is something "big" that I need I remind myself "it's not real" (Subjective Reality / Busting Loose terminology) and force myself to leave it alone.

Thanks for this reminder Gaia, sometimes I wonder if panic erases LOA efforts. It's good to hear that using the BL process and leaving it alone is ENOUGH.

It's truuuue.

I lost my favorite lip gloss a couple weeks ago and today I saw someone wearing pretty lipcolor, and it made me miss mine. So on my way home I just briefly was like, okay, lip gloss, come to mommy!

As soon as I arrived home, I saw it sitting on the bathroom sink. I didn't even remember that I'd had this entire thought process about it less than 30 minutes before until AFTER I asked my roommate about it and she said "oh, yeah, I had it; I found it when I was cleaning my room..."

Man, I looked for that thing for ages. The Muggle way. I should have known better.

/frivolous sorcery.

Alright Snowflake, I read the article and I've always been very into psychology. The article reminds me of a book about the Subconscious Mind I bought a few months ago.

After it was explained in a more psychological perspective I think I see where your coming from. I'm gonna give it a shot and really feel the desire for one last minute, and then just forget and know the universe will get it to me.
