Hello Bill,
I thoroughly enjoyed your paper, "MANIFESTING, CREATING, & ATTUNEMENT" which I recently read on FMBR's website. I have always been interested in the power of the mind and how our thoughts create and affect our environment, and every facet of our lives. I also believe in the power of prayer, creative visualization, and miracles!! Belief systems also come into play and can be just as powerful in the creation of our desires. The reason I felt compelled to write to you is that I am in a situation right now where I am finding it difficult to "create" something and since you are an expert in this field and have done the research and study, you might be able to offer some additional insight and help.
I took the courage and resigned from a very negative and "toxic" job last year. I took University level courses and graduated in April 2007, at which time I thought I would find that perfect high-paying full-time job right away. After 2 1/2 months, I am still looking and am now desperate to find something before I run out of my savings. I know I should relax and let it happen but I am getting a bit concerned. I need that job that is the "perfect fit" for me and an organization. I realize I can manifest this wonderful, positive job (where I would be working with great people) as the universe is a bountiful universe and wants to deliver to me what I want (but time is not on my side).
Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to bring this to me, while remaining calm and confident? I need this job immediately. Many, many thanks, for your time Bill !
(Sorry for this long winded email)
Kind regards, Lynn, British Columbia
Hi Lynn,
What an interesting challenge you are presenting to me! Let me explore with you some of what I have learned regarding manifestation and apply it to your letter.
To manifest "magic" with great effectiveness you really need to "believe" you can. There must be an inner "knowingness" that what you need is already present and can manifest in this reality. Religions call this "faith." When you have that inner knowing events around you will change. You will bring into your life the people who can get you or lead you to the appropriate opportunities. Such "knowing" is not an easy task in this society, but at least you need to be in "neutral" and be open to the possibility of "magic" occurring.
Every doubt you have is like throwing water on a fire you are trying to ignite. You must remember that you are interacting with a domain of unbounded potentials, but it is also a spaceless and timeless domain. You can't demand a time schedule from the Absolute - - magic may not occur on the time schedule that you believe it should. You are not in control of the process! It is true that you need to remain "calm and confident." However, you need to let go and be thankful for whatever happens. You need a clearly focused intention for magic to manifest in ways that fulfill your inner passion and mission in life. You are now interacting with the interconnected whole of the cosmos. Everything is interconnected -- it's like a spider's web, what you do vibrates throughout the whole web. This is why spiritual traditions emphasize service with love and compassion that helps benefit others -- helps keep the web healthy.
Are you clear why you want a new job -- is it for money and to avoid a "toxic" environment? What is your real passion? You are entering a "hero's journey" seeking the golden chalice. Some people can plunge in and with absolute faith and commitment go where life leads them. Others like me tended to be more cautious and would not burn my bridges behind me, but stay in a less desirable situation as the universe decides the timing for my focused intention to evolve my life's path. As you learn how to do focused "magic" it becomes easier to just trust the feedback from the Absolute -- from God.
Best wishes, Bill
