Manifestation demystified
Instead of expecting things to manifest like a charm, you can definitely make it possible by working towards manifestation with the right attitude, says Megha Bajaj
These days, ‘manifestation’ has become the trending word for seekers across the globe. From the young to the old, everyone is trying to manifest something—health, wealth, relationships, spiritual blessings. Does manifestation work? Absolutely! I have experienced its magic in my life. And yet, why does life continue to remain such a struggle for so many? The reason is most people want shortcuts to all the big things in life. We want abundance, while our mind is filled with scarcity. We want faith, while we hold on dearly to fear. We want results, without getting process excellence. I have come to realise that for everything that I wish to see in the world outside, I have to do what it takes within, along with taking the necessary action. But it takes work. Self purification. Commitment. Action. And that is something many of us miss completely. In my journey of manifesting, I have realised that three important steps work very well. Listing them below to see if you can relate to them and can find ways to make your dreams and desires a reality.
1) Clarity and alignment:The very first step towards manifesting anything, big or small, is to have complete clarity as to what it
is. Many of us remain unclear and keep wondering why it isn’t happening. Another important aspect here is alignment. When my desires are in alignment with my nature, manifestation happens easily. For instance, as an author, my innate self is a thinker, feeler, and believer. I find the greatest peace in words. With this as my being, if I keep wanting to become, say, a politician (where the required key personality traits are completely different), I am setting myself up for disappointment. Clarity of what I want and the alignment of my desires with who I am helps set the manifestation process in action.
2) Process excellence:Somehow, motivational speakers and authors of manifestation realise that if they ask you to work towards your dream, it doesn’t sell. But the truth is that manifestation works only with process excellence. Say you desire health and keep visualising yourself as healthy but munch on junk food while doing it, you can rest assured that the only thing you are going to attract is diseases. Manifestation is not irrational. It works on the highest science and needs to be backed by your intelligent efforts in that direction in order to come to fruition.
3)No mixed associations:One of the biggest obstacles to manifesting is having thoughts for and against your desire. A classic example would be believing that rich people are unhappy and, at the same time, wanting to become rich! Now unless you change your inherent belief that rich people can be happy, you will always keep repelling your desire.
Manifestation is no rocket science. It’s a potent, brilliant tool which allows you to live the life you deserve (and more). It works on the above basic principles, and the astounding part is that when you get the above right, you start seeing results which surpass your expectations. From living in a dream home to attracting health for my terminally ill mother and from experiencing the bliss of love in relationships to drawing spiritual grace, I have experienced the magic of manifestation. But. A big BUT. I did all that I had to, for it to manifest.
