Well folks, I must appologize for the time I have been away from my desk. I have been working on a task for the Sabian Assembly which kept me occuppied for the better part of a week. But now I can get back to my train of thought where I was describing the process behind the Law of Attraction (LOA). There are no co-incidences in our world. We draw things to us and create a reality out of the recesses of our minds as we work both consciously and sub-consciously toward a destiny of our own choosing. And the process I was describing was a deliberate attempt to make something happen to our definite advantage and liking.
To pick up where I left off, the desired outcome is formed in the consciousness. There must be a strong desire for this to happen or your desire becomes just a wish, a whim, and nothing of consequence can happen as it remains in the realm of 'might have been'. The consciousness has the power to shape this dream, this vision, through the senses at its command to create the pattern for the sub-conscious to relay, in turn, the desired object to the pool of consciousness or super-conscious for want of a better term. And it is from this state that the conditions are organized to make the dream or vision manifest.
So it all starts with a strong desire for a favorable outcome of some sort. This is followed by a visualization of what this outcome should be. And at this point I must add a word of caution. In scoping your vision be as precise as possible so that when it manifests it does so in a way that you want and not in some chimera that can only bring more misery. The old adage... be careful what you wish for..etc. etc. etc.. This vision or dream must be repeated many times to continually keep it posted in your sub-conscious mind. And when it comes to fruition, reverence it because it is your own personal creation.
Let me say one thing in closing. The strong desire is the most important because this is where the journey begins. Some of us have this thrust upon us as we encounter many challenges in life. Others lead a quiet and un-eventful life but with a sense of making a greater contribution of some sort. And it is with these people in mind that I tell the following story on how to recognize a strong and burning desire.
The Buddha and his disciple were walking beside a stream, when the desciple said "Master how can I know when I have a burning desire and not just a simple whim?" The Buddha said "come with me" as he lead his disciple to the river. They both walked into the river and the Buddha immediately pushed the head of the disciple under water and held it there. The disciple, with absolute faith that his Master knew what he was doing allowed this to happen. But after awhile the Master would not let up and the disciple was feeling the effects of not breathing. Finally with a desparate burst of strength the disciple threw off his Guru's hands and struggled to get his head above the water. "Master" he said "why did you do that to me? I almost drowned". The Buddha answered. "When your head was held under the water, what was your most burning desire?" The disciple said " it was to get my head above water and avoid drowning to death". The Buddha said "when you have a desire as strong as that then you will know that it is not just a whim or a wish."
Perhaps you too have a burning desire ... let us hear from you
