2003, 06/16 We all desire stuff, right? We desire a better life, more abundance, better government, less pain, more Love, relationship, etc. So much has been written about setting one's intention, focusing on desired outcome, mental manifestation and all the other takes on the creative process. How many of us have actually mastered the technique? Do we understand the mechanics? In my ceaseless quest to understand the powers of Mind the creative process is right at or near the top of the list of mind functions of interest. I've created my universe populated with whoever and occuring in ways I'm not always happy with. Yet I created all of it. How? Why aren't my desires in line with my experiences? During the past several days I've come to realize desire and decision are key elements in the matrix of my life. I may desire such and such but I make decisions about what I want as evidenced by those desires. We may picture desires of any nature but until and unless we make a real DECISION as to which one we want they remain desires, with limited power of manifesting. When I say DECISION I mean a clear, precise and unequivocal matter of fact statement: I choose THIS as it is pictured by my desire. A desire is usually derived from some thing not wanted. A discomfort leads to a desire for something better. The decision then is to HAVE that something better instead of that other less desirable whatever. A decision is the holding of that desired in mind and making it so - replacing the other thought form IN THE MIND that is not so desirable. It is the wiping out of one thought-form with another. Like writing over a file on your harddrive. The old is replaced and extinguished by the new. Our power of creating then lies in our imaginative minds but activated by DECISION. Desire by itself does not have that power of over-writing old thought patterns. Dream your dreams. Desire what you will but then make an unequivocal DECISION as to have or experience that held in desire. Making the decision is making it so and activates the universe's creative elements. Desire is ambivalent and unreal. Decision without doubt but with total conviction and resoluteness to have or experience makes it clear cut and liberated from confusion which inhibits the creative forces. |
