Imagine traveling back in time; back to a place of your own choosing. To journey beyond a gateway that is filled with promise, bliss and happiness.
Where is your gateway?
Richard Matheson, the author of Bid Time Return, wrote of such an experience in his book that was published in 1975. His brother, Robert Collier had the manuscript published because Richard never thought it would be. In fact, he didn’t think he would finish it.
According to Robert Collier, while he did finish it, it would be the only book he ever wrote.
Robert Collier, in the foreword of his brother’s book wrote, ‘In addition to believing that my brother’s book deserves to be read, there is another reason for having it published. Frankly, his story is incredible. No matter how I try, I can’t believe it.’ He goes on to say, ‘To Richard, this was not a word of fiction. He, (Richard) believed, without question, that he lived each moment of it.’
There followed, in 1980, a story on the screen called, Somewhere In Time. It was an adaptation of the book. This film is perhaps the perfect proof that long before it was brought to the fore, the Truth was concealed for hundreds of years. The truth being, that one, with the power of the mind can manifest what the mind desires.
Richard Matheson (Collier) travelled back in time and experienced every detail of his vision after he had convinced himself he was living in the year 1912. He was aware that any reminder of the present day was a ‘taboo’ and made sure he would carry no memento that would encourage his release from his desire.
In his book he wrote in precise detail all the events he experienced. It was such defined detail that his brother found it too fantastic to believe. It was written by Richard who to this day is adamant he was transported back in time.
However fantastic it is, going back in time, I believe only awakens the Law of Attraction to deliver what we have already done, do not want and gives much energy to an invitation to draw the unwanted to us. In order to manifest what we want, given there is not much material to research the backward time travel and the consequences therein, moving forward would be a much better option.
Centering our attention on our future well being would be more controlling than traveling backwards thereby focusing on what we wanted rather than what we can now have.
Paying attention to what is in the now is what manifests with much more clarity.
Our perception of what we want now is not a foggy desire. We are aware of that which we want because we can picture it in our mind in minute detail. It is clear as it must be, it is a goal we intend to achieve therefore it is easier to perceive.
Intention is vital to speedy manifestation. Intention is the pinnacle of self peace. With self peace comes a knowing and a sense of excitement that what is desired and intended will be delivered in no time at all.
Having intention is having a strong will to be, do or have. It encompasses a goal or an aim and nothing has the power to make us deviate from it unless we allow it. We made up our mind and we will have what we intend to have. No ifs. No buts.
Intention is not ego. Intention is not something we do, rather it is the energy that co-creates an idea or thought. It is the passion that accompanies the thought and the relentless determination and the backbone of tenacity to see it happen and attain that which we intend to have. And it occurs precisely in that order.
Notice here that intention is not the want. Intention is knowing absolutely that whatever it is we desire will come. It is faith and it is trust of our own making.
Imagine this energy called intention. It is borne of inspiration and cannot be divided or broken down. Nor can it be washed away or burned for every living thing in nature has the intention to grow and renew just as you and I who are eternal beings with an indestructible life force which will continue to live and evolve long after our death.
Intention is everywhere we are. It is all around us and it cannot be bought, sold or seen.
We know where it resides but it is not a material possession. It can be strong and relentless or it can dwindle away to a mere shadow taking with it the initial fire that stirred us toward action.
When this occurs it is then we realise the passion succeeding the intention was not powerful enough to propel us toward that which we thought we desired.
Sometimes our attention will be drawn to something that for a fleeting moment we feel we would like to be, have or do. The intent is so powerful it propels us toward taking action.
But if our intent is not intact, we run in the direction of that which we think we desire and later discover that the fire has burned out, that the passion was vaporous and finally we quit pursuing the interest.
Before taking on an interest, check inside and find your truth. Are you pursuing your bliss? Does what you are about to launch possess a powerful intent to see it through to the end?
Do you feel that wonderful lightness in your heart or do you feel the slightest doubt deep down in your stomach? Any element of doubt you may have will eventually dilute your intention to see it through because what you see, the Universe sees also.
Be true to yourself and really feel it before you move forward. It takes only a few seconds to heed your inner voice. For one moment act just a little bit less and envision just a little bit more. If you can feel your bliss and your passion for what you are about to pursue then go to it and know you cannot fail.
The key to success in anything you want to be, do or have is the relentless attention to intention to see the end before you have begun at the beginning.
When you can see the entire picture in all its clarity and glorious detail then nothing can destroy your desired and intended result.
When someone tells you, ‘Good Luck’ they are sending you a blessing from the Universe whether they are aware of it or not. Luck is a state of mind whether it be bad or good. There are no accidents in life because everything occurs for a reason and that reason is that you created the circumstances with intention.
Good Luck can happen in everyone’s life. When you say, ‘I am so lucky’ and mean what you say, the happiness in your heart sends a bolt of gratitude to Source. You will then notice more luck in your life experience.
The same goes for luck of unfavourable circumstances. If you say, ‘my life is a continuous combination of bad luck’, then you can expect unsavoury occurrences until you change your inner thoughts.
Circumstances, events and experiences have the power to change in the blink of an eye but they need to you look at them differently. You can have a thousand wonderful thoughts coursing through your mind on any given day. No-one can think for you therefore no-one can be blamed if your day doesn’t go as you would like.
You create your thoughts and you create your moment by moment experiences.
To conclude, Abraham said you have 68 seconds to manifest momentum. Beliefs are thoughts you keep thinking so they are bound to be manifest.
The universe does not hear what we say. It hears what we mean. The law of attraction is the path to least resistance and 17 seconds of pure thought and focus can ensure effortlessness.
A pure thought is that which is not contradicted. It is an intended thought. For instance; if one were to say I would love to have a red Ferrari but I cannot afford one, he must hold the thought of a red Ferrari in his mind for 17 seconds. He must imagine it, pretend he owns it and see it as his very own.
He will inevitably notice another thought of the same flavour as it enters his realm. The law of attraction joins equivalent thoughts and when those two thoughts come together there is an explosion of energy.
Without that ingredient, the trust in All That Is, there will be no red Ferrari.
It is said that 17 seconds of pure thought equates to 2000 action hours. When the next 17 seconds of pure thought which has attracted another equivalent thought joins the first, there energy is now 10 times that of the first.
You are now at 20,000 action hours. Each time there is a subsequent thought for 17 seconds so it reaches 10 more times that energy of the second thought. 17 + 17 + 17 + 17. 68 seconds of pure thought has huge potential.
Richard Collier held a thought, pure in essence for a lot longer than sixty eight seconds. The Universe answered and his thought transported him to a place he intended to go.
Remember, the Universe hears every thought and every thought is answered. No matter what.
It is Law.
