The Fulfillment of Any Desire

The Fulfillment of Any Desire
8 comments

Gratitude and generosity are natural attributes of an affluent consciousness. Since the only thing to go after is the best, the principle of the highest first, why not adopt God as the role model? After all, no one is more affluent than God, for God is the field of all possibilities.

There is a precise mechanism through which all desires can be manifested. These four steps are as follow:

Step one: You slip into the gap between thoughts. The gap is the window, the corridor, the transformational vortex through which the personal psyche communicates with the cosmic psyche.

Step two: You have a clear intention of a clear goal in the gap.

Step three: You relinquish your attachment to the outcome, because chasing the outcome or getting attached to it entails coming out of the gap.

Step four: You let the universe handle the details.

It is important to have a clear goal in your awareness, but it is also important to relinquish your attachment to the goal. And the goal is in the gap, and the gap is the potentiality to organize and orchestrate the details required to affect any income.

Perhaps you recall an instant when you were trying to remember a name, and you struggled and struggled, but with no success. Finally, you let go of your attachment to the outcome, and then a little while later the name flashed across the screen of your consciousness. This is the mechanics for the fulfillment of any desire.

Adapted from Creating Affluence, by Deepak Chopra (New World Library, 1993).

In the Middle East, they call this doing without doing, action without action...

Without ego involved, anything is possible.

Now, how is it possible to take action without karma, which is the result of any desire or associated action?

That is another story.

That's what they call the Law of Attraction, I consciously apply it with amazing results. The LOA can be explained both from a spiritual and quantum physics point of view. For further study I recommend the Sectret, What the Bleep Do We Know, Abraham Hicks... Thank you Dr. Chopra!

Simplified? I still don't understand it.

thanks for the great reminder. I read this book many years ago and still use the same technology. Many people consider me to be very "lucky" but I just figure out what I want and then release my attachment to the outcome. But I have been practicing this so long that I don't even realize what I am doing anymore. Your reminder is great timing for where I am at in my life, as my whole job is about producing outcomes for me and others. Sometimes I find myself getting way too attached without thinking about what I am doing.

Thanks again Deepak. Your messages so often resonate perfectly with my life.

Someday I will attend SynchroDestiny, but last time I went to sign up, i found my dream house online and the down payment was exactly the same amount as the workshop. But I look forward to taking this to a higher level one day.

This is a main principle for casting spells and has been know by wiccans for a very long time. Glad to see it is becoming accepted and the philosophy behind it simplified.
