What is this experience?
Who named this experience “my life”? Who created it? God? Who and where is God then? Well the one who calls it “my life” must be the creator of “my life”. Notice how you always at the epicenter of every experience. You cannot prove that experiences exist without you first being aware of them, even if someone told you it happened in the past, you experienced it in the present via them telling you. Now, what about these other people then? Who created them? Well you tell me, who are they without their bodies and minds, and who are you without your body and mind? Now there is no creation and only ONE ☝️ who was pretending to be many via appearance.
Your latest post was very eye-opening because since forever i have been a very possessive person with just about everything in my life: objects, people, even concepts. So to think that i own nothing and everything at the same time is very freeing but also very scary because of my extreme attachment to my things. I feel attached to my appearance, my circumstances, the stuff i own, everything. Sometimes, i catch myself wishing things were permanent and indestructible because just the thought of losing that attachment is dreadful. Now, i know thats not a me thing, i know everybody has at least a little bit of this possessiveness in them, but i really go to extremes. i have had multiple professionals tell me im way too attached and dependent on external things. And all this is to tell you that when i read your text, i really understood why im so persistent about not going within, and im very grateful that you posted it. Thank you, and sorry for rambling 😵💫
Omg I was just thinking of answering asks what a coincidence I finally got one! I get what you mean I used to be possessive too always trying to win people over and keep them around, desiring to be perfect physically and mentally and worrying what “other” people thought of me, which is funny now because if people are judging me it’s just them judging themselves. Don’t be hard on yourself if you still have the habit of desiring just remember separation doesn’t exist. 🫶🏼
Desire holds up the facade of separation and otherness. It is in fact Brahman desiring Brahman. You desiring you.
About obtainment…
You don’t own/have things. You are the screen on which the things appear, you give them life. Yeah the body appears to have things but even the body disappears and appears on the screen of consciousness so does it have things when you’re not conscious of it? Can you really HAVE a partner, a house, a car, or are you the screen on which they appear whenever you “wake up”? Where is the you to have things? Are you really located inside the brain or is that a figment of your imagination? (You have to imagine yourself being inside the brain) What exactly can the screen of Consciousness want?
All concepts like getting, owning, having, and being things are of the mind. This goes for things you think you already have too, so you don’t HAVE a shitty life or HAVE a heavenly life. No need to take ownership of anything you don’t want because you already don’t own 💩. You can say the body owns things if you want to but remember it’s just a storyline for your character to feel real.
Have you ever thought, "I follow all the steps, but nothing manifests," or "I need to write what I want X times for it to happen," or "I affirm every day, but nothing changes"?
The solution is simple: just flow. Have the clarity that you already have it, that it is already done. For example, to affirm something literally means to assert it—it’s like saying a firm "yes." When I affirm that my hair is blonde, I don’t say it because I want it to be that way or because if I don’t say it, I’ll forget and my hair will stop being blonde. I say it simply because it is. Affirming is just that—asserting what already is.
Also, when you say that you must write what you want X times for it to happen—nonono. You have assumed that this is the way it works, and so, if you don’t do it, you believe it won’t happen. But in doing this, you are already proving how the law works. If I assume that the only way to change my eye color is through surgery, then that’s how it will be. If I assume that drinking water will change my eye color, then that’s how it will be. The change comes from you. There is nothing external that inherently influences you.
So, just have faith.
"The imagination, which is Christ in man, is not bound by the necessity to produce only what is perfect and good. It exercises its absolute freedom from necessity by endowing the outer physical being with free will to choose whether to follow good or evil, order or disorder."

Are you going to keep scrolling?
All the information you want to know is within you. Stop thinking, 'I still can’t manifest, I don’t know enough yet,' or 'I need to read more books about this,' please.
Think for yourself, find the answers to your questions within; you already have them all, just think. Stop scrolling through Tumblr and reading blogs you already know all of that; it’s all within you.
Put down the phone and just think. Start acting like it, start doing something.
I just came across a post that said, "Don’t check the 3D to see if something’s happening, CHECK THE 4D," and suddenly everything clicked. As obvious as it sounds, I had never fully realized it before. I kept wondering how I could stop focusing on the 3D, and it turns out it’s as simple as imagining it. I can’t believe I didn’t see it sooner. 🥹
✮ Success story ✮
Okay, I'll tell you how I've been passing all the exams since the school year started. First I want to clarify that before, I was the typical girl who always failed, never went to class, I had been expelled and I even repeated the year twice. .. but I decided that this had to stop, so they took the first exams and I was a little stressed but then I thought 'what am I doing stressing about this? I know I will pass, I don't need to study 2 hours every day, much less stress myself.' With this confidence, I took the exam and, obviously, I passed with what I consider a good grade (8/10). Now, I always do the same thing—I already know I'll pass, I already know I'll get good grades. Even the teachers tell me that I don't seem like someone who has repeated a year. So don't stress, don't give up; everything you imagine already exists.
Our self-concept is everything we accept as real and are convinced of. The only way to describe what convictions we have is to observe, without any criticism, how we react to life. Our reactions reveal to us where we live psychologically, and where we live psychologically is what determines how we live here, in this external and visible world.

Things I want to shift:
•Lots of books
•A lovely cozy library in my house
•Being able to spend hours reading and understanding
Very simple 😺
How free I feel knowing that I am God, there is no separation between "you" and me, there is no superiority of "subject and object." Be happy to be aware of this, to be aware that you are everything.
YOU ALREADY HAVE that body, there is no need to be on diets or killing yourself doing exercises, you already have that body.
You also have clear perfect skin, you also have perfect hair. YOU ARE LITERALLY EVERYTHING, stop "trying to manifest" if it's real in your imagination it's already done.
Master Of Self Realization - An Ultimate Understanding, Sri siddharameshwar maharaj, part 1 - ch. 9 (pg 126)
Self and non-self.
Anxiety accompanies desire. As long as the mind is full of desire, anxiety will be there. When desire ceases, anxiety is no more. While walking on the street many things are visible, yet we have no attachment to them. However, once the sense of “mine” is conceived, desire arises and one immediately becomes preoccupied with objects.
To feel that something is “mine” is itself bondage. What is truly ours in the physical body? For the body, the air that is inside goes out and the air outside comes in. What belongs to you in this process? In the area of about two feet around the body, there are continuous currents of air. One who can see minutely can be aware of this.
Many special days and festivals are coming and going, and you think that the things in the world are permanent and yours, but you do not see that you really exist prior to all of these objective things. When the perception of objects ends, the desire for the objects also ends, and it does not matter whether objects are existing or not. If you think that some little piece of earth is yours, you immediately become worldly. The mind when dwelling on the Self, is desireless, and when focusing on the physical body as “me” or “mine,” is full of desire.
Strange indeed, is this creation consisting of the five elements. The “One Being” that plays in all bodies is the “AllPervading Universal Self. Understand that “All is Brahman.” The example of the ring and the gold is commonly used. If you consider the ring as Gold, then only the Gold is seen as the substance, but if you look at it as a ring, it is considered as a separate object. Water is water, both in the ocean and the pitcher, but water in the pitcher is separate if you keep the pitcher separate, so do not keep it separate. Know that “All is Brahman.”
Consider all to be your friends, so that there is no duality or dislike in the mind. When you repeat the statement that “All is Brahman,” then why does your attitude not change accordingly? That is because your thinking is warped by the notions of virtue and vice, and you adopt a critical or dualistic attitude. One who pleases you is considered a good person, and the other you consider as bad. However, are there not many others who call that so-called “bad” person, as good? Moreover, to what extent are you yourself good? Are there not some people who take you to be a bad person? Even God is considered in terms of good or bad by many people.
The wise man says that since all are slaves of circumstances (living according to the destiny of the body), how can we differentiate between good and bad people. Circumstances have created the various castes such as carpenters and cobblers, etc. The labels of various occupations have made us think of people as separate. Otherwise, where is the distinction of castes, etc.? Nobody is bad or good. All bodies are subject to circumstances. The stages of childhood, youth, and old-age are there for everyone.
The young man will have not have a white moustache instead of a black one, while the old toothless man cannot gulp down morsels of hard food, etc. In short, do not ridicule others. All are subject to circumstances. One may keep long hair on the head, or wear a beard, it is all a matter of one’s preference. Why should you hate anyone because of such things? Consider the one who criticizes you, or blames you, as a kind person. Keep an open loving attitude towards those who give you a lot of trouble, and remain without enmity. Only then, will you be as Brahman.
Anxiety kills us very early. The one who worries dies with that worry, and hatred is a very heavy burden to bear. Vishwamitra, who was a bachelor and had done a great amount of spiritual practice, became ready even to murder when he went to kill the Sage Vasishtha out of envy and jealousy. It is said that the bag of saffron (a precious delicate tasting spice) become Asafoetida (a pungent spice with strong taste and odor), only because of being in its vicinity. When pride disappears, the thorn that irritates you drops away. Kill pride and then you will yourself become the “Divine Sage,” or “Brahmarishi.” Prostrate before him who hates you. If you decide that someone is bad, then you yourself become bad. One who has no enmity is himself Brahman. To quarrel indicates misunderstanding. The duality of differentiating between sense objects must end. Do not think in terms of hatred or enmity, or good and bad. It is only then that you become as Brahman. Have no enmity towards anyone.
