Responsibility And So Called Negative Intentions

"If I think the entire Universe into existance, then why isn't the Universe exactly the way I want it. Why don't I have everything I want now."

Well dear-one, if you are experiencing that which you do not desire, it is because your thoughts to the contrary are dominant. I know it's a tough pill to swallow but you are indeed responsible for everything you experience.

"But that's crazy. Why would I want to experience a lack of abundance, or unhealthy relationships, or poor health?"

That is a slightly more complicated matter. I'm sure that much of the time, consciously, you do not desire any of the things you think of as "bad". However, there is some part of you - conscious or otherwise, that is bringing these things into existance.

Firstly, the Universe does not interpret negative thoughts negatively. It doesn't know or care about good or bad, it only responds to your thoughts. If you are worried about being in debt, your dominant thought is debt - and the Universe will bring you more.

Isn't it wonderful to have such an obedient servant?

Metaphysically, you must take full responsability for your Universe right now. Then, you must train your mind to only hold that which you desire, not that which you would avoid.

If money is your problem, having poverty consciousness is not going to help. Instead only think about wealth. Some egos might say that this is a form of denial, but the true denial is hold on to the victim mentality. For now it may be more confortable to blame others and the Universe for your problems when you brought them about. This is the mindset of a victim.

Adopt instead the mindset of the victor. Take full responsability and consciously create your Universe at all times. Eliminate negative intentions and replace them with only thoughts about those things you really want to bring about. You can be, do, and have anything you want now.

Intention is Everything

We create our universe, you and I. Whether conscious or unconscious, our thoughts become things. Everything that is would not exist to us without our thinking about it. It's a powerful idea, and one of the most important tenets of metaphysics.

My personal practice of metaphysics revolves around becoming more conscious of the way I create the universe, and do so with more alignment between my conscious and unconscious.

Ester Hicks, in her Abraham books, puts forth a wonderful practice she has called segment Intending. This is, having a set intention for just about everything you do. Notice I did not say "goal". An intention is more resolute than a goal.

So you might wake up and set the intention that you are going to have a day where you feel great and learn something new. Then, before you brush your teeth, you set the intention that you are going to have a healthy mouth. And keep setting intentions throughout your day.

A couple of important things happen then:

1. Instead of living robotically, you begin to wake up and live life more consciously.
2. You actually start to shape your experiences to be what you want.
3. You realize that you and God are inseparable partners in the creation of the universe

Life is the ultimate self-fulfilling prophecy. Have you ever known someone who, during cold season, constantly says - "I just know I'm going to get sick"? What happens? They get sick. I once drank water that turned out to make over 300 people seriously ill and had no ill effect. I simply told myself - I have things to do and I will stay healthy. I BELIEVED it too.

I can tell you that I have used the metaphysical power of intention to buy the exact house I wanted (when it wasn't on the market yet). When my wife and I wanted to have kids I told her exactly when and where we would conceive and that we would have twin daughters - it happened. I have manufactured the life I want perfectly, and so can you.

First, set an intention. Then, you must believe to the depths of your soul that what you intend is already true. Lastly, let go and let god. Don't try to manage how your intention comes to fruition. God does not need to be micromanaged, and frankly - we'd mess it all up. You do not need or even want to control the process of manifesting your intention.
