Leveraging the Universe – Manifesting Reality

Hold in your mind what you want,

Feel it’s emotional reality, and

Behave as if you already have it

Sunset Over Ram Jhula, Rishikesh

When it comes to living the life of one’s dreams, to manifesting those dreams, there are those who think they must go it alone; that they must be the early bird, know all the right people, and succeed by the sweat of their brow – and they carry the weight of the world on their shoulders.

Then there are those who have read all the books, done all the workshops, and concluded that it’s simply a matter of surrendering to a loving, conspiring Universe so that their life might be transformed by its magic – and they silently wonder why it hasn’t.

The truth is, neither are we alone, nor is knowing about the Universe and its magic enough to manifest change. The first conclusion is as self-sabotaging as it is sad, and the second is a bit like knowing exactly where the secret treasure is buried, yet never bothering to dig for it. Instead, the trick lies in knowing the difference between what one can, should and must do, versus what one can, should and must delegate to an all wise and capable Universe. Our part is the easy part.

We need only provide the spark to light the Universe’s fire; to hoist up our sails so that they can be filled with its magical winds. Yet without offering these token efforts, without assisting in these modest ways, not only do we contradict our wish to live as fully as possible, but we slide ever further away from an infinite grace that tirelessly strives to sweep us off our feet, surround us with friends, and create the life we most want.

In another post I will discuss further the role of Faith in Manifesting a new Reality.  But for now, a couple of further insights:

always remember: God helps those who help themselves.

Just remember to release all expectations as to how a certain dream should manifest itself, in what form and at what time and place. We as human beings have limited abilities to see the entire picture – what Kryon calls the “overview” – and we very often sabotage ourselves when we limit the Universe in what it has in store for us.  Know what you want, have a crystal clear image of what it is you desire and a focused intention on that thing, but leave the “how’s” and “what’s” to God and the Universe.  When you pray or have an intention in your mind to manifest something, always conclude the pray or intention with …”or something better” – since we very often do not allow ourselves to dream as expansively as we should.  Great and amazing things wait for us if we just allow them the possibilities of coming into our lives, without question and prior expectations. Open yourself up to the amazing the gifts the Universe holds in store for you and know that you are worthy and deserving of all of them – even those well beyond anything you could imagine for yourself!

And finally, be grateful.  Express your gratitude daily, often during the day, for all the blessings that surround you each and every moment along the amazing journey we call life!

with love light and JOY
