Plant the seed of desire in your mind
and it forms a nucleus
with power to attract to itself
everything needed for its fulfillment.

Everything you see around you is an expression of an infinite power; your house, your clothes, your computer, your car, your body, trees, planets, stars, etc. are all expression of the same power, in science, this power is called energy.
All these things appear to be different but at the fundamental level all things are made up of one and the same thing and are the expression of the same power, I call this power “The Eternal Spirit”
This power works in a precise manner, which is generally called ‘the law’.
Everything happens in the universe according to the universal laws, these laws are exact in their nature and works equally for everyone. These laws are not created by man, so they cannot be changed by man.
This life force, the Eternal Spirit, is expressing itself through everything that exists, including us.
It has put limits of its expression through every other form of life, but when it comes to expressing itself through human form, it didn’t limit itself, instead, it gave human beings an intelligent mind to decide for themselves how much of this great power they would like to express in their life.
Now, keep in mind that this power is intelligent, infinite, all-powerful, and it has no limits; so the only limits that exist are within the channel through which it flows.
We are an instrument to this power, a channel through which it is forever flowing, which means there are no limits to what we can create with this power in our life, the only limits we have are the ones we have placed upon our mind, through which we decide how much of this power we are going to utilize in our life.
If you are not happy with your life, or if you are stuck with something in your life, or your efforts are not bringing the results you want to achieve, or if there are other problems in your life for which you don’t have a solution; you can change it by expanding the channel for this power to flow in your life in a greater way.
In order for you to expand the channel, or remove the limitations, you must understand how this power works with and through you.
The Human Mind
Our personality is made up of three basic components, how we think, how we feel, and how we act, and always remember as Dr. Joe Dispenza says “our personality creates our personal reality”.
We simultaneously live on three different planes of life, we are spiritual beings, we live in a physical body, and we have an intellect through which we build a connecting link between the spiritual and the physical sides of us.
Three planes of our life are
- The spiritual plane of thoughts
- Mental Plane of ideas
- Physical plane of experiences
Now understand this- 95% of the activities that we do in our lives are controlled by our subconscious mind, only 5% of our activities come through the use of our conscious mind.
In order for us to expand the channel for the eternal spirit, we have to understand how our conscious and subconscious mind works, because we think with our conscious mind, and this power works for us in our lives through our subconscious mind.
The Conscious Mind
The conscious mind is the part of our personality where every kind of thinking takes place.
We have five physical senses (See, hear, smell, taste, and touch) through which our mind interacts with the physical world.
The mind interprets the information it receives through physical senses, and store it in memory.
Apart from our physical senses we also have marvelous higher mental faculties, which I call “Non-physical senses”.
Our non-physical senses are-
- Perception = the way we observe things and life.
- Will = our ability to concentrate.
- Imagination = our ability to originate thoughts.
- Memory = our ability to remember.
- Intuition = our ability to feel the thought energy around us.
- Reason = our ability to distinguish right from wrong.
These non-physical senses are essential to understand and exercise on a daily basis because they set the boundaries of the channel for the eternal spirit to express itself in our personal lives.
Perception –
Perception is our recognition and interpretation of sensory information.
How we look at things, what we focus on, what kind of belief system we carry within ourselves etc. are the factors that determine our perception.
Will-
‘Will’ is our ability to concentrate. We live in an ocean of thoughts, thousands of thoughts cross our mind every day. ‘Will’ gives us the ability to concentrate on the thoughts which would serve us most, in terms of growth.
Imagination-
Imagination is our ability to see things in our mind which cannot be experienced by physical senses. It gives us the ability to originate thoughts and ideas. Through the use of creative imagination, we can tap into the unseen field of possibilities and bring the desired outcome which we want to experience in our physical world.
Memory-
Memory is our ability to remember past experiences and lessons. The things we do, our lessons, our mistakes, our success, our good time and bad time; everything is stored into the infinite storehouse of our marvelous mind. Memory works as a guide. Memory keeps the expression of every experience of failure and success which works as MAPS for a Future trial.
Intuition-
Intuition is our ability to understand something instinctively, without the need for conscious reasoning. It gives us the ability to read the energy of a person or place around us. We have the ability to pick the energy of another person around us and read it, and through this, we can understand what kind of thoughts they are thinking.
Reason-
The reason is our ability to understand what is beneficial for us and what is not.
It allows us to make sure that we are not wasting our valuable energy and time on things that are not productive. It helps us to take the essential actions that must be taken to have the desired experience.
Now, you have to always remember that everything that is ever going to come into your life will be in exact ratio with the ruling state of your mind, and your ruling state of mind depends upon how you use your non-physical senses.
To improve your ruling mental state, the first thing you should do is to find a worthy goal to work for and make a mental picture of yourself achieving this goal by using your imagination.
Now, this is the picture you want to transform the formless power into, or we can say that this is the form you want the eternal spirit to express itself into through the channel of your mind.
When you have built your goal image in your conscious mind, you have to use all of your non-physical senses according to this image.
You should use your ‘perception’ by looking at things in the ways by which your mental goal image can be achieved.
You should use your ‘will’ by focusing on only one mental picture of yourself, achieving your goal.
You should use your ‘imagination’ and start seeing yourself as the person who has achieved that goal.
You should use your ‘memory’ to remember and understand from past experiences how you can confidently move towards your goal.
You should use your ‘intuition’ to search for the energy and people that could help you to get closer to your goal.
You should use your ‘reason’ to understand the ways that would work and save you a waste of time and valuable mental energy.
When you use every non-physical sense towards a particular destination, which in this case is your goal image, you are providing an expanded channel for the eternal spirit to express itself freely for the manifestation of your dream.
In that case, you will attract everything you need in order for you to experience your dream in your physical reality.
You must remember though that it’s a process and you have to participate in it consciously and continuously until this mental image becomes fixed in your subconscious mind, once that happened the eternal spirit would take over and express itself in your life according to the goal image you have in your mind.
The Subconscious mind
The subconscious mind is our habitual and emotional mind, all of our habitual behaviors are controlled by our subconscious mind, and almost 95% of our behaviors are habitual.
So, until we change our habitual behaviors our life is going to stay the same. The process described above is the initiation of this change.
Your personality is locked up in our subconscious mind in the form of a ‘Self-Image’, and your self-image is your own conception of yourself, your deepest beliefs of ‘the sort of person I am’.
Self-Image is actually the door through which eternal spirit flows and expresses itself in your personal life.
For example, if you see yourself as a failure then that’s the door and channel you are giving to the eternal spirit, and it will only be able to express itself in your life as a failure, then it doesn’t matter what you try, you would always fail.
However, if you hold a strong and positive self-image, you see yourself as worthy of everything you desire and you love yourself with all your heart, then that’s the door and channel you are giving to the eternal spirit, and it will express itself in your life as love, health, prosperity, and unlimited happiness.
Now, the subconscious mind works with a different set of rules than the conscious mind.
The first thing you need to understand about the subconscious mind is that it has no ability to reject any idea. Whatever you impress upon it, will be expressed through your physical body.
The second thing you need to understand and remember that it cannot differentiate between what’s real and what’s just an imagination.
It does not know the difference between a real event in your life and an event you are creating in your mind just by thoughts alone. To the subconscious, both events are equally real.
Now, your belief system or Paradigm is fixed in your subconscious mind, and it controls almost everything in your life. Your self-image is one aspect of your Paradigm.
.
Your Paradigm is what put the limits on the expression of the eternal spirit in your life, and remember that until you change your Paradigm the eternal spirit would not be able to express itself in your life in a greater way.
All beliefs that are stored and dominant in the subconscious mind were created through the repetition of certain thoughts, feelings, and actions for a long period of time, consciously or unconsciously.
In order to create a new Paradigm in your subconscious mind, you have to consciously repeat new thoughts, feelings, and actions in your mind over and over again until these new thoughts, feelings, and actions take root and become dominant in the subconscious mind.
The Flow the eternal Spirit to and through you
Understand this- the eternal spirit can express itself into your life in a countless number of ways, but it will only express itself according to your mental and emotional states.
This power is an unseen formless power, and it is always flowing into and through you.
As this power flows in, you choose thoughts or mental images which give it a direction towards it should flow through you.
In other words, as the formless power flows into you, you give it a form in which it should express itself.
Now, when you build a dream or a goal image that you want to experience in your life, that image is built in the conscious mind and as long as it is in the conscious mind nothing happens.
The next step is to impress this image upon the subconscious mind.
The way to do this is that you should close your eyes and imagine in your mind as you have already achieved your goal, feel the joy which you would feel when it would really happen, and do it over and over again.
As the subconscious mind doesn’t know the difference between what you imagine and what’s real, it would accept it as real.
Once the subconscious accepts your image completely and it becomes the dominating thought in your mind, then the formless power would flow through your entire body and would be released to search for means and ways to make this new image your physical reality.
When this power flows through your body with a new mental image in the subconscious mind, it puts your entire body into the harmonious vibration with the good that you desire which then cause your feelings and actions to change, and everything you need in order to achieve your goal will be attracted to you.
When your goal image is firmly planted in your subconscious mind then you start vibrating in harmony with every particle of energy that is on the frequency of your goal image, then by law you start moving towards them and they start moving towards you, in order to complete the process of manifestation.
We think with our Conscious Mind, and whatever we habitually think sinks down into our subconscious mind, which then brings conditions and circumstances according to the nature of our thoughts.
If we think good, good will follow, if we think prosperity, prosperity will follow, if we think lack, lack will follow.
This is the way the eternal spirit flows and expresses itself in the life of every individual.
There is no limit to the power that flows into and through us, it is limitless, it is almighty, and it knows no failure; the only failure that exists is within our ability to understand and use it.
SHIFT YOUR PARADIGM
Whenever you will set a new and big goal for yourself and start working towards it, something will happen inside your brain and body, and you will feel like something is wrong with you.
Then you will start to hear voices in your head like- you can’t do it, it’s not for you, you don’t have time for this, it’s too hard, it doesn’t feel right, etc.
Understand this- every time you try something new and different, the programming of your mind which is called the Paradigm would try to keep you into the same old life where your thoughts, feelings, and actions are under the boundaries of your belief system.
Every time you go outside of its boundaries it would try to pull you back within the boundaries by sending signals to your brain and body which makes you feel uncomfortable.
Most people when they go through this, they usually give up the idea and get back to their comfort zone.
When you feel uncomfortable, you are in the river of change, and until you cross that river, you cannot achieve the success you desire.
In order for you to cross that river, you have to develop the understanding, and you have to shift your paradigm.
Now, when you start working on your mind, involve in the study of personal development, learn new information, personalize it, and apply it in your personal life, your Paradigm will begin to change, and as your Paradigm changes so will your life.
The world around us is changing faster than ever and we can not take part in this growth and advancement until we change our mental belief system and bring advancement into our personal life first.
As Bob Proctor said, “Change is inevitable, but personal growth is a choice”
If you want to learn and understand how to take conscious control of the power of your mind and design your life exactly as you want it to be.
The first thing you have to do is to learn and understand your higher mental faculties or non-physical senses.
Because it’s your higher mental faculties through which you shape the formless power into the desired experience in your life.
When you learn to consciously control your higher mental faculties, you will be able to control every aspect of your life.
Your health, wealth, happiness, relationships, etc. will be exactly as you want them to be.
To understand and learn about the mental power that you were born with, my mentor “Bob proctor” alongside with Sandy Gallagher and Mary Morrissey (three great mind of this time) have designed a special program, just to teach you about your mind and how to take conscious control of the power of the mind and create your life exactly as you want it to be.
The name of the program is “Magic in your Mind” and it’s really like magic when you take voluntary control of your mental faculties.
Go for it, you would be glad that you made this investment in yourself.
Thank you very much for your time.
