If we want to live an abundant life we need to understand how to manifest. Some people just intuitively live it. They inherently know how to attract what they want into their lives. Others struggle, and the harder they struggle the more difficult it becomes. They have inadvertently set up a cycle of attracting what they don’t want. Once we understand the Laws of Manifestation, the process of attracting abundance becomes easy and we can then attract what we want.

THE FOUNDATION

Everything has its own energy and vibration. In order for anything to be created it must start as energy, intention, or thought. An artist’s inspiration may be fueled by emotion or passion…that’s an emotional energy. Manifestation translates the energy from one plane to another. The artist manifests by taking emotional energy and creating an art form (i.e., paintings, sculpture). He has manifested this by taking it from a level of consciousness and translating it into a physical form.

THE PHASES

There are four levels of manifestation: physical, emotional, mental and soul level. Each level builds upon the previous one.

Physical level is all about some form of work to bring about manifestation of our desires (i.e., have a job and pay the bills). It is on this level we work with social, religious, economic and natural laws. Social and economic laws determine the common currency used by society. Religious laws provide a baseline for the ethics that drive society. They act as a conduit between the Source and us. Natural laws are the laws that govern our world (i.e., the growing cycles, the weather, the length of a day).

Emotional level is about using feeling energies, and indirectly our physical energies to bring about change that might not be possible solely on the physical level (i.e., bring about renewed health or money into our life).

Mental level is about positive thoughts and imagery. In learning the laws of the mind (primarily concentration and imagination) and applying them to foster our ability to manifest, we grow from child to co-creator. The techniques at this level revolve around ‘right use’ of thought.

Soul level is about knowing and experiencing the difference between personality and soul. The soul does not experience need or lack the way the personality does.

Seeing manifestation as simply a tool to get more ‘things’ negates its essence to transform consciousness, turning it into a weapon for control and manipulation. Instead of using it to impose our own will, use it as a tool of expression to allow ourselves to achieve greater potential. We can use the principles to develop our own vision, increase consciousness and understand we are all part of the whole.

THE OBSTACLES

To truly manifest we must change from being a passive receiver to becoming a creator. Create from a centered place not from: scarcity, control or manipulation. While we may be able to attract things to ourselves, this does not necessarily make us a manifestor. Are we doing it to feed personality and not soul? We must simply relearn to be ourselves. Being is the key to manifestation. Trust and the universe will provide for us. We will automatically attract to ourselves whatever we need in any given moment.

THE PROCESS

Identify what you need. Does the need stem from a lack or does it come from wanting to create? It’s important to know yourself and identify your intention because that is what you will manifest. It’s okay to meet your own needs when that in turn will allow you to help others. Beware the personality.

Try to discover why you want to manifest? What will you do with this? Perhaps you need it, perhaps you don’t. Get a strong sense of your intention whether it’s people, things, or circumstances…remember, that’s where you’re aligning yourself. Get a sense of who or what you need and allow that to come to you.

A key principle of manifesting is changing the paradigm we erect for ourselves. We now become a creator, not just a bystander. We are part of the whole; we do not travel alone on this journey. If our manifestation is good for us and others, then we start being part of the solution. If we all become part of the solution…it could catch on.
