Manifesting versus Deliberate Creation

Our Skype guest was Liz Layug, an interior designer who incorporates spirituality into design. She addressed changing the balance and harmony in a room. When we enter a room and feel something is off - just doesn't feel right - there are steps to take to regain the balance. Eliminate all the items with negative feelings attached, such as gifts from people with whom you no longer have a connection. This will provide more space for items with positive feelings. Classical music has the highest frequency and will raise the room's frequency. Introducing colored lights will create the mood you want - blue for serenity, green for recuperating from illness, pink for love. To rid a room of bad feelings, place a glass with 2/3 water and 1/3 salt in a safe place for a few days. These steps will create balance and flow in your life.

We watched a you tube segment on deliberate creation and read the following description:

Manifesting is the process of attracting whatever we think about. If we think about something, we are manifesting that something into our lives. It doesn't matter if we think we want it or don't want it. If we think about it, we attract it. If we think we are unlucky, we will be. If we think we can't do a job, we won't.

Getting up on the wrong side of the bed demonstrates the process of manifesting really well. When we start out the day in a negative mood, we keep attracting more of the negative. So, when we are in a bad mood, we must realize that we will be attracting more of the negative and we'd be smart to change our outlook to the positive.

Since we are thinking every second of every waking hour, we are constantly manifesting. If we do not pay attention to our thoughts, we are manifesting by default. If we think or feel "Oh, what's the use...I'll never get it anyway", this is a prime indicator we are manifesting by default. So, the trick is to think about what we do want and to keep our thoughts and feelings positive.

If we think we would like a person in our lives who is personable, smart and considerate, we are thinking positive thoughts and establishing the right mindset to attract that type of person.

Conversely, if we concentrate our thoughts on finding someone who doesn't drink like our last mate, doesn't talk down to people, doesn't do this or that, we are concentrating on what we don't want in a mate. This sets our thoughts to attract what we do NOT want - the negative attributes.

Simply stated, to manifest what we want we must maintain a positive mindset and think about what we do want in positive terms and with positive feelings.

Deliberate creation picks up on the mindset we have established and helps us manifest our desires faster. With a positive mindset, when we think about what we want, picture ourselves having it, and believe and act as if we already have it, we will be filled with positive emotions. The more forceful those positive emotions, the faster we will deliberately create what we want. We cannot hope they will come true; we must be confident in our thoughts. View it as a goal that's already been achieved. It ramps up our feelings.

If we see others who have what we want, and we are unhappy or jealous, we will attract unhappiness and jealousy to ourselves. It is better to rejoice in the good fortune of others and say something like "That's got my name on it". Merely saying it isn't enough; we must truly FEEL rejoiceful.

The difference between manifesting and deliberate creation is this. Manifesting is the process of thinking. Whatever we think about is what we are attracting. So we must keep a positive outlook and turn our thoughts and feelings to whatever we want. Deliberate creation is maintaining that positive outlook and ramping up our positive emotions about those desires to the oint we believe we already have it. That will attract and deliberately create what we want in life.

The meeting ended with a you tube video on hugs.

The Art of Manifesting

Most of us understand the basics of manifesting, but sometimes we just don’t seem to get what we want.  What hinders our ability to manifest the things we really desire?

One possibility is that we are not living up to our contract with the Universe that was set as we entered the world at birth. Our group welcomed Marguerite Manning via Skype into our meeting. Marguerite is the best-selling author of Cosmic Karma, Understanding Your Contract With The Universe. A professional astrologer, her work, like her book, is dedicated to advancing the Universal Law of Karma through the scientific principles of astrology.

Marguerite presented the concept of Karma. When we are born we enter into a contract with the Universe. Our karmic calling is our soul’s promise to apply our talents to excel at our life’s work. Our Karmic debt is the emotional service we owe to the Universe to compensate for selfish mistakes we made in a previous life. This led to a discussion of how reincarnation occurs in alignment with religious teachings. 

Marguerite’s website is www.margueritemanning.com . Her book is available on Amazon.com.  We can listen to Marguerite on her radio program, Therapy for the Soul, every other Wednesday at 7 PM on Law of Attraction Radio, accessible through her website. 

Lynn explained how she manifested her early retirement when at first it did not appear possible. The group then developed the following formula for manifesting.

First, we must ask for what we want. We should express it, and dream it, and live it as if we already have it, being specific to cover the who, what, when, where and why. Leave the how to the Universe. Then, when it happens, we must allow it to happen. It may not happen exactly as we ask, but allow it to develop as the Universe deems it.

Hindering our efforts to achieve our desires are our egos, prior conditioning, negative feelings in our solar plexus, and other components of self sabotage. To counter these blocks, remember to say what we do want, appreciate our self worth, follow our emotional guidance systems, listen to our inner feelings, find whatever makes us happy, and reclaim our birthright of joy and happiness.

Lynn developed a “Manifesting Board” on which our written intentions can be posted on the left.  As they are manifested we move them to the right.  Between meetings, the group focuses its attention on manifesting everyone’s intentions. The power of a group manifestation will be more effective than each of us manifesting our own intention only. As intentions come to fruition, the posting is moved to the manifested side of the board.

In an “And Avalanche” mode, members commented on what they like about Kimberly in order to gear up positive feelings towards her recovery. The comments made and memories they evoked were amazing. 

The group watched a You-Tube video A Gift from the Secret Scrolls.
Next meeting is Monday, August 16, 2010 at 7 PM.
