Chapter 7 - Every Encounter is an Opportunity to Practice

The free, manifestative state is our natural state that comes to us without even trying. It is a state that is independent from our doing and from all our physical actions. It is a state of pure being as opposed to doing . Any time you feel the urge to engage in outer-directed actions to “make something happen” on the outside, you ironically move further and further away from your natural free state into a state of scarcity, limitation and lack. These outer-directed actions may be manifestation techniques such as affirmations and visualizations that try to make something happen, or they may be persuasion techniques to subliminally influence another person to agree with you. Our egos perceive the need to use these techniques because it sees each one of us as separate from one another, and hence the need for competitive actions to shore up / accumulate as much good for oneself as possible. However, as a student of this material, you know better. You know that the only thing you really have lasting control over is your inner state, and hence you focus all your efforts wholeheartedly on tending to your inner state.

Tending to your inner state is not about “doing” anything. We are not trying to add anything that is not there already. Instead, all we are doing is reconnecting with and recognizing that feeling of deep inner peace and love that has always been there since the beginning of time.

But if this feeling has been around since the beginning, why is it that we cannot feel it? Why is it that most people walk around unaware that they have this wellspring of immense peace and love within them? That’s because over time, their inner states have become tainted by unwanted feelings of worry, fear, self-consciousness and guilt. When every moment of our lives is spent worrying about whether our manifestations will happen, or whether we are making a good impression on others, our focus is always somewhere else. It is always misplaced. We pay attention only to the false projected images and thoughts of the ego mind, instead of to who we really are.

One analogy I use is looking through a piece of originally clear glass. If that piece of glass is dirty or blurry, we will always notice and remain fixated on the dirt and grime on the glass. Individuals who wear glasses often have the amusing experience of rubbing their eyes frantically to clear up their blurred vision, only to realize that it was their glasses that were dirty all along! The same thing applies here. All you need to do is to let go off the dirt and grime on your glasses to perceive clearly again. The solution is not to rub your eyes over and over again, or to draw on your glasses in an attempt to correct your vision.

Once you have identified the subtle bodily action which you unknowingly engage in when your body is holding onto negative feelings, you’ll have a constant reminder to “let go”.
