Chapter 1 - A More Effective

Definition of Manifestations

Most books on manifestation and real-ity creation emphasize outer-directed actions and steps to ask for what you want. “If only you’ll do these steps in the right order as de-scribed… then you’ll get this!” Indeed, a quick browsing of titles on any bookstore shelf (or online catalog) will show you that there is no shortage of books wanting to show you physical methods that claim to ma-terialize your desires and attract greater good into your life. All is well and good, but all this brings about several unanswered questions: What do we do during the rest of

our time when we are not using these

tech-niques? Are we supposed to use these mani-festation techniques and state our intentions / desires over-and-over again? Or are we

(5)

supposed to do them just once, as is often suggested? What do we do with the 95% (or possibly more) of our time when we are not actively stating our desires, visualizing, writ-ing affirmations, meditatwrit-ing, praywrit-ing, or en-gaged in some esoteric technique… What do we do during the times in between?

It turns out that the answer to this question holds the keys to successful and ef-fective manifestations. In fact, it makes all of the difference, and is responsible for most of your day-to-day results. Even I am surprised, looking back, that I did not realize this pro-found truth earlier… because I too, like many others, have also fallen into the trap of focus-ing on outer-directed rituals that one can take to manifest our desires. What I realize today after more than a decade of doing this work is that all the active manifestation tech-niques we practice constitute only a very small portion of our waking hours. I

(6)

calculated that even if we meditated or en-gaged in active visualization three times a day for fifteen minutes each time, it still only works out to be a measly 3% of our day. Three percent! And most people I know don’t even actively state their intentions or visualize for that long every single day.

Is it any wonder that these manifesta-tion techniques often do not produce desired results for most people? It is not because these techniques do not work, but because their effects are being overridden by what most of us do during the remaining portion of our time. And so this is the premise of the book you’re holding in your hands right now. Using a concept which I call the 95-5 (nine five five) code, I explain and address the fun-damental question of what you should do during the intervening periods… the time in between that can make all the difference.

(7)

Perhaps it is apt to start off here with an explanation of what “manifestation” really means. Over the years, I have heard various definitions and explanations of “manifesta-tion”, ranging from the practical to down-right esoteric. None of these definitions have really stuck with me, because to me,

mani-festation is such a central concept that is

tertwined with the core of our being. It is in-definable. It is literally who we are. As creat-ive beings, we cannot be separate from the concept of manifestation, and of bringing things into being. Therefore, understand that you don’t even have to know what manifesta-tion means or is in order to tap into these powerful Universal Laws. I define manifesta-tion (in its simplest form) as bringing something which you want into physical form, from its non-physical form. At its most fundamental level, manifestations are about bringing what you want into form, by delib-erately aligning yourself with the feelings,

(8)

thoughts and emotions that match what you physically want. You’ll find that this defini-tion is in line with what a lot of spiritual teachers teach — Which is that in order to create something in your life, you first have to become the thing. You have to resonate with it, and be one with it. You must think thoughts and feelings that are in line with the desired outcome that you want. That is the essence of manifestation.

I would also like to add that the mani-festations we are talking about here are de-liberate manifestations. In other words, we are concerned with the usage and application of these Universal Laws to bring about de-sired conditions into our lives. We are not in-terested in unconscious manifestations, or unconscious creations, which may some-times bring us our deepest fears instead of our deepest desires! Therefore, much of ef-fective manifestations comes from applying

(9)

these Universal principles in the right way, such that we bring about our greatest good into our lives… instead of having to spend time undoing our unwanted manifestations. You’ll be surprised at how “effective” some individuals are as manifestors, except that they are constantly bringing in unwanted stuff into their lives! They then have to use lots of mental and physical energy to correct these physical conditions after they have manifested. This leads to a lot of unnecessary time and energy spent, not to mention heartache and disappointments.

The New Year is just round the corner as I write these words, and as we enter a whole new season I am inspired to share a new understanding of manifestations with everyone. This understanding is closer to our hearts, and I feel it is also more relevant and easily applicable than previous definitions. It is this: Effective manifestations are about

(10)

getting past blind-spots in our own thinking. How incredibly simple and apt! The first time this definition came to me as I was go-ing about my day… I was amazed by the sim-plicity and truth of what the Universe had just presented me with — Effective manifest-ations in our lives are nothing more than get-ting past blind-spots in our own thinking!

I was then inspired to think back to several episodes in my life, and I realized that it was exactly what happened in each of those episodes that led to successful mani-festations. Each time I asked for something, I often did not believe it could come to me… or I would be worried over when and how my desires would be fulfilled. All of this erro-neous thinking went on for the longest time. I did not realize it back then, but I realize today with profound clarity that they were simply blind-spots in my OWN thinking! Not blind-spots in anyone else’s thinking…

(11)

because no one was withholding my good from me. Not blind-spots in the Universe’s perception… because the Universal always has a complete, whole, and perfect picture of our good in full view. But simply blind-spots in my own thinking. I had not allowed myself to think that it was possible to have what I asked for. For example, when I asked for a luxury car, I did not think it was pos-sible because I used a lack of money as an ex-cuse, or the excuse that the bank would not grant me a loan. That was nothing more than a blind-spot in my own thinking. Similarly, with many other desires in my life, I was constantly worried over whether they would be delivered. My blind-spot in my own think-ing had prevented me from trustthink-ing and hav-ing faith in the Universe, that what I wanted would be delivered in the most perfect way possible… in its most perfect time.

(12)

Today, as I write these words, I realize that manifestations are simple! There is nothing mysterious or magical about them. Everything has been laid out in plain sight all along, expounded by ancient (and modern) spiritual masters using different words over the ages. These spiritual masters have been trying to drive home these spiritual truths time and time again, through the use of par-ables, shock techniques (!), humor, jargon, scientific explanations… You name it, they have used it. Almost every single technique has been applied with the sole purpose of helping us get past blind-spots in our own thinking. Once you are able to get past those blind-spots in your thinking… no matter what methods you use, the manifestations will appear almost instantaneously that you’ll be surprised by the speed and preci-sion of it all!

(13)

For many years I wanted a luxury car. I asked and asked for the longest time, five years in fact, and it did not come to me. Everything stayed the same externally on the outside. I was doing all the outer-directed rituals I could possibly be engaged in, from meditations to very vivid visualizations com-plete with emotions, sounds, mantras and imagined actions! I was visualizing and do-ing everythdo-ing as taught… yet I did not un-derstand that my actions, no matter how fre-quently or fervently I engaged in them, con-stituted only a very small portion of my wak-ing hours. Even in those days when I was in-tensely focused on my desires, I estimate that I spent no more than 5% of my waking hours intently focused on my desires. It is rather difficult in this modern day and age to be thinking about our desires all the time and to engage in outer-directed actions to “attract” them all the time, as we have day-jobs and other responsibilities to attend to.

(14)

And no, thinking about them all the time and spending all our time visualizing is not the answer either, as I’ll explain in the later part of this book.

Despite the fact that I was spending lots of energy / emotions visualizing and thinking about what I wanted, I still had not allowed myself to get past the blind-spots in my own thinking. I did not manage to think past those blind-spots. Two of which I still remember quite clearly now: First, I did not think I could have enough money to afford the car. I did not think I could afford it. And second, I did not think I deserved to drive such a nice car. How I came to believe in those unresourceful beliefs is not the issue here, because that is not the key to effective manifestations. What is key to any mani-festation is how we think past (or around) those blind-spots. The moment we success-fully do so, the manifestations will happen

(15)

very fast! This means to say that the moment I could allow myself to think in a way that I could afford the car, or that I deserved to own that car… then physical reality had to match up to my new way of thinking almost immediately.

That’s probably the simplest and the most effective way to explain the entire art of manifestation. Manifestation is nothing more complicated than identifying the road blocks, the blind-spots in our own thinking which we have been unable to get past no matter what… and then finding creative ways such that we can now think around these blind-spots. In other words, whereas previ-ously I was unable to see a way which I could afford the car financially… the moment I al-lowed myself to “see” how I could afford it (even though it was only a “thought” and nothing manifested in reality yet)… then my physical reality matched up with my new

(16)

understanding very quickly. The longer I al-lowed myself to stay stuck with that stuck thinking and roadblock in my mind… the longer I harped on the fact that “I cannot af-ford the car”, that was how my reality re-sponded as well. At the end of the day, it is all in our own thinking. It is all in our own inner world and state as I have explained time and time again, and there are no excep-tions. Get past these roadblocks in your own thinking in whatever creative ways you can… and the outer manifestations will happen really quickly for you.

This has been the case for me, time-and-time again. In the case of manifesting that luxury car, I finally got to a place where I allowed myself to “think” (or “see” in my mind’s eye), even just for a moment… a pos-sibility through which the money could come to me. That was all that was needed. Now no-tice that this does not have to be the eventual

(17)

actual way in which the money came to me, neither does it have to be rooted in existing physical reality at that time. All I had to do was to create a possibility inside of myself, an opening in my mind of sorts, that this was

somewhat possible. All I did was to create

the remote possibility in my own thinking, my own imagination, that allowed me to get rid of the excuses and self-imposed limita-tions I have previously been using. Once I did that, I was swept along by the physical flow of things and just took one logical step after another, culminating in the final manifestation.

That is manifestation explained in the simplest words and terms possible. I now realize today that there is nothing grandiose or earth-shaking about manifestations. You do not have to recite mantras or part seas and move mountains. All it takes for something to manifest is to get past the

(18)

roadblocks and blind-spots of your own thinking on the inside! You DO need to move your own inner mountains and part your own inner seas. You do need to create per-ceptual changes within yourself and allow yourself to get past previously stuck points in your own thinking. We all have these stuck points in the form of negative beliefs or thought patterns. The faster you are able to get past these stuck points and overcome them, the more pleasing your outer reality will be to you. And the faster these manifest-ations will happen. Until one day, you finally reach a point where you do not have to con-sciously “ask” for stuff anymore, and the things you want will still keep happening for you.

When you get there in time, it will be done. This is the powerful premise we will be exploring together in this book.

Chapter 2 - Working With

Manifestation Stuck Points

The moment you understand that manifestations have absolutely nothing to do with what is happening on the outside, and have everything to do with what happens on the inside, you gain a newfound sense of freedom and profound clarity.

Most individuals who are stuck with their manifestations perceive something on the outside as stopping whatever they want from coming to them. They say, “I can’t have this because I cannot afford it.” Their “not being able to afford it” then becomes an ac-tual manifestation block as to why something cannot happen for them. Ironically, it is also these individuals who “ask for” things the hardest by using various manifestations

(21)

techniques and “hacks”. The mistake they are making is in trying to transcend whatever outer difficulties they perceive through the desperate and repeated fervent use of these techniques. This is not the way in which deliberate manifestations work.

Once you are able to understand this key piece of information, you’ll gain the much-needed clarity in your manifestation process. In my old days, I was trying to make up for all the outer deficiencies I perceived through the repeated usage of these festation techniques. I was hoping to mani-fest in spite of them, while continuing to be-lieve in those limitations. Because I per-ceived that I could not possibly afford what I was asking for, I could only hope that it would come to me (somewhat miraculously) through the use of these manifestation tech-niques! Hence I was trying to “ask for the seeming impossible” through the use of all

(22)

these techniques… and the Universe did not seem to respond.

Again, is it any wonder that the Uni-verse did not respond to my desperate “re-quests” at all? Here I was, seeing something as “impossible” for me through the usual routes… and then desperately putting my de-sires out there through all these means so

they could come in other equally

“impossible” ways! I chuckle a little just thinking about it now and even find it a bit amusing, because I was trapped in the prison of my own thinking without even realizing it. I was setting myself up for repeated failures and disappointments! But I also understand that it is certainly no laughing matter if your desires do not come to you even after several years of asking. I was there once too. With each passing new year, I would say excitedly to myself, “Perhaps this is the year which things will finally change!” Even that was a

(23)

fallacy in itself, because I was hoping that something external… the passing of a new year, would somehow (and automatically) bring about the much-needed change within myself! Thus you can see how someone who repeatedly fails to get tangible results through manifestations sets themselves up for more disappointments and limited thinking.

Are you trying to manifest something while holding on to all your perceived beliefs on why you cannot have them? If so, that is a major part of the issue that is holding your manifestations up.

The Universe is always knocking on our door, trying to give us greater good. This is a concept which has been expounded over-and-over again by classical New Thought au-thors like the great Florence Scovel Shinn. I was so taken away by her lucidity in writing

(24)

that I felt inspired to update her classic book, The Magic Path of Intuition, for the modern reader. One thing that made a strong im-pression on me from that book (and the reas-on why I decided to rewrite it back then) was how we were essentially delivering the same message in different ways. Each of us have reached the same place of understanding through different paths, which converged at the end of the day.

At the start, the “good” that the Uni-verse delivers to you will not be in terms of outer physical manifestations! They may be something even subtler, and often dismissed or missed by most people. In the beginning, your good will come in the form of subtle shifts in perception. Whereas previously you felt hung up over something, you now feel okay and alright about it. That is the first sign (and in fact the surest indicator) that your physical good is on its way. A change in

(25)

the way you feel inside about things that tripped you up previously is a surefire indic-ator that things are happening on the outside.

I have a book from spiritual author Richard Bach on my desk. It is titled the Messiah’s Handbook — Reminders for the Advanced Soul. Notwithstanding its grandi-ose title, it is actually a fun “answers” book. Have you ever visited the bookstore as a child and went to one of those “answer” books which claimed to be able to answer whatever question you had flipping the book to any page? The Messiah’s Handbook goes along the same vein, and it is actually a “book from a book”. The protagonist in Richard Bach’s novel “Illusions” had a simil-arly titled book that seemed to give profound answers when flipped to any page, and this book was released following the popularity of that story.

(26)

Since I am always looking for fun ways to deepen my understanding of Universal Laws, I purchased this “book from a book” and started asking it questions. For the longest time, whatever question I asked al-ways had me flip open to the same page. This frustrated me a little, since I could never un-derstand why I always ended up on that page which had little relevance to the question I was asking! Let me first give you the message from that page, before discussing its signific-ance. This is the page I always flipped to, and it reads: “It’s a slow process, changing

prin-ciples, and you’ll never know that they’ve changed until something that used to be right just doesn’t feel that way any more.”

And so that drove me a bit crazy, be-cause what does changing principles have to do with the questions I was asking? I was asking about delays in my manifestation!

(27)

And then a long time later after I had all these realizations… it finally dawned on me. I was dumbstruck when I realized the signi-ficance of that message all along. It was actu-ally relevant. What the message was trying to say, was that I had to get past the “stuck points” in my own perception, and that I would never know that I have gotten over them until “something that used to be right just doesn’t feel that way any more”. On an-other level, it also speaks of our negative tendencies and habits. For example, worry-ing used to feel so natural and right to me in the past, but it does not feel that way for me any more.

(Note: Before you rush out to get the book in order to ask various questions, know that doing so will be falling into the realm of superstition. There is no one book that can predict the future, simply because the future is malleable and not cast in stone. In other

(28)

words, you have the power to change any fu-ture outcome from your “now” moment. Most people like to ask questions about the future because we always like a bit more as-surance / control over how things will turn out, without realizing that the things and events that are lined up can often be changed! What the book serves as is a pos-sibility playbook for our unconscious. Since the divine and our higher self is always try-ing to send us messages which we may not easily pick up on, books / techniques like this allow a “channel” through which such mes-sages can get through to us, by offering a “reference point” by which we can frame and interpret the messages. In other words, by reading a passage which is open to interpret-ation, the words set us thinking in a particu-lar direction, eventually leading to a realiza-tion. Otherwise, we would not even be think-ing in that direction in the first place.)

(29)

And so the answer which I was looking for has always been in plain view all along! The answer which I needed, and which many others struggling with their manifestations need, is a way to deal with these inner “stuck points” about the various intentions and ex-periences they are trying to manifest. It is of no use letting all these stuck points remain in our consciousness, while using heaps of manifestation or positive thinking tech-niques to cover them up on the outside. Do-ing so would be like pipDo-ing lots of cream on a spoiled cake! What you need to do is to deal with the cake itself. The cake is the founda-tion of everything, and makes all the differ-ence in the world. The cream is just the pro-verbial cherry on top of the cake.

Let me explain in greater detail what I mean by manifestation stuck points. There is a subtle difference between manifestation stuck points and limiting beliefs. I will use

(30)

examples from various scenarios (some of which I have observed in other individuals) to illustrate my point, so you’ll quickly be-come aware of how to spot stuck points when they occur. Stuck points are the things that trip up and delay any manifestations. In oth-er words, the longoth-er you allow these stuck points to remain, the longer you are going to be without your manifestations!

The first example I’ll use is one related to health and well-being. On some mornings, I would wake up with a runny nose (possibly due to some allergic reaction) that went on for almost half a day. My reaction to my runny nose was to pop an anti-allergy tablet, which resolved my allergic symptoms in about half an hour. And so each time I woke up with a runny nose, I would pop a tablet and the symptoms would be gone.

(31)

One morning, I realized that I had run out of these tablets… and so my nose contin-ued to run throughout the day! Those of you who have been through this experience will know that it can totally spoil your day, espe-cially if you have to keep blowing your nose while doing your other chores! Since I had been an avid student of all these spiritual healing techniques, I decided to try a few of them on my nose… but nothing worked! In this case, the intention I set was to have a clear nose, but no matter what manifestation technique I used, I still continued to feel as bad.

Now this is obviously not a book about how to treat medical illnesses or even dia-gnose any of them. I am merely using this example to illustrate how to treat manifesta-tion stuck points. What do you think was the stuck point here that prevented my manifest-ation from working? I usually get what I ask

(32)

for quickly, so it was a surprise to me that this did not work. What’s happening here?

I did not realize what the manifesta-tion stuck point was until I had this recur a few times over the next few weeks. I still had not found the time to get more anti-allergy tablets from the drugstore, but I am glad things turned out the way they did because it taught me an important lesson out of this ex-perience! Once again, I am not asking that you skip medication or use these techniques to diagnose any illness, so please do not at-tempt to do so. I am merely citing this ex-ample to show you that Universal principles apply in all circumstances.

One morning, it finally dawned on me that my stuck point for this particular mani-festation was: “I cannot get my nose to stop running without eating the anti-allergy med-ication!” Wow! What a powerful realization

(33)

it was! And while I had not vocalized or uttered those words before, it was an innate belief which I steadfastly held. In other words, a stuck point is a reason why we can-not have whatever it is that we want. In this case, the stuck point (which is actually stuck energy) was so subtle… I had come to see the anti-allergy pill as the only way in which I could get better and clear up my nose!

I am bringing this example up for a few reasons. First to deliberately show you that manifestation stuck points occur in every kind of manifestations — physical and non-physical. In this case, I wasn’t asking for a physical object or a particular sum of money. I was instead asking for my nose to be re-stored to its usual state. Second, it is to illus-trate that these Universal principles can truly apply under any and all circumstances.

(34)

Once I identified the stuck point, I set out to see how I could gently overcome it. Al-though I use the word “overcome”, what I really mean is how we can “think around” it. Once you are able to think around, to be not tripped up by a stuck point which previously tripped you up… the outer manifestations will happen very quickly! So let’s take a closer look at what happened to me here: I wanted my nose to be clear. I asked for it to be clear. But I was stuck on my thinking be-cause the only way for my nose to be clear was by using the anti-allergy tablet. There-fore this tripped me up every single time I stated an intention for my nose to be clear!

Now here’s where it starts to get a little crazy… but it is so fun and it contains the en-tire KEY to successful manifestations. The key is this — It does not matter how you get past your manifestation stuck points, as long as you get past them. In other words, it

(35)

does not matter how you think around them, as long as you think around them. You can think around them in some pretty crazy ways. Whatever works… is whatever works for you!

I had just read an excellent book by Dr. Joe Dispenza, titled “You Are The Placebo”. In it, Dr. Dispenza cited medical studies in which individuals who had taken a medica-tion for a while could actually synthesize the same chemical compounds in their bodies, even after they stopped taking the drug! Reading Joe’s book lay the foundation for me and was the first step towards getting past my manifestation stuck point. I then decided to try something fun. Since I always ate my Clarinase tablets and they worked, I figured that my body would know how to synthesize the exact same compounds. What I did was to go into a deep state of relaxation and in-tend “Clarinase 500mg” to myself, while

(36)

feeling the feelings of having just ingested that tablet! Within the hour, my runny nose symptoms stopped. The desired outcome had occurred.

Once again for the third time, I must remind you that I am NOT advocating that you stop any medication. All I am doing is sharing with you the lessons contained in this very valuable experience. What I did when I intended and acted as if I consumed the tablet was to get past my own

mani-festation stuck point that I had to eat the

tablet in order to get better. Therefore, the method which I devised to think around that stuck point was to “pretend” I had eaten the tablet, and then rely on the placebo effect to chemically synthesize those compounds in myself. Did I really synthesize those com-pounds in myself when I intended it? I wouldn’t know. But that is not important at all. What’s important is that I overcame

(37)

my own stuck point by giving myself an

alternative possibility — that it was possible to get the same benefits of the drug without having to ingest the physical tablet. Once you are able to get past any manifestation stuck points on the inside, it is done!

Do you see why I am so excited about sharing this technique with you? I think my example above is testament that it works, even in a perceived “challenging” situation. Manifesting a desired well-being outcome is not like manifesting a physical object, so I deliberately used this example to show you how these principles can apply, even under such circumstances. Understand that my nose cleared up not because I had synthes-ized those compounds within my body (whether it actually did is not important, al-though Dr. Dispenza would support this view), but because I had allowed myself to get past a major mental hurdle that was

(38)

standing between myself and my desired outcome.

Herein also lies the difference between thinking around a manifestation stuck point, and “believing” in something. Both are not exactly the same. When you try to “believe” in something, you are usually doing it in a forceful manner. In the earlier example, “be-lieving” that my body was really producing the chemical compounds was not the key. I did not have to believe in it. The belief was optional. I did not deliberately and forcefully make myself believe in something that I had a difficult time believing in. All I did, and this is the difference between the two, was to show my mind an alternative possibility to think around the stuck point. It does not matter whether that alternative possibility is true or otherwise.

(39)

Alright, now let us look at another ex-ample that is more similar to a conventional manifestation scenario. I’ll use an example about finances, since this is close to our hearts. My friend Mark always had a fixed idea about how much his income would be. Since he traded hours for dollars as a coach, he could never see his income exceed a cer-tain point once he had filled up all his slots with clients. His manifestation stuck point was: “My income can never exceed a certain level since I have a limited number of hours each week.”

Many of these manifestation stuck points seem perfectly logical to a person. That is why we continue to be tripped by them on the inside, oftentimes for years on end! Think about my earlier example of how I needed my anti-allergy medications to get better. That was certainly a very logical, sci-entific thought! Therefore, the reality that

(40)

followed was that without my medications, my condition would not improve! I am not asking that you stop believing in whatever manifestation stuck points. All you need to do is to allow yourself to conceive of an al-ternative possibility.

Since I had done a fair share of busi-ness consulting, I could immediately see Mark’s manifestation stuck points. I pointed out to him that if he opened up to the possib-ility of doing group coaching instead of indi-vidual coaching, he could now make more money per hour than before. Mark had not considered this possibility before, and what my words did was to allow him to get past his previous stuck point. Notice that my words were all that was necessary. All we need to do is to plant that seed in our con-sciousness, and our consciousness takes over from there. The moment we get past our pre-vious stuck points, we are immediately

(41)

elevated to higher levels of understanding and consciousness. That is all that is necessary.

Notice that I did not even tell Mark

how to get additional coaching clients, or how to pack more clients into one slot. All I

told him was he could do it. It was something he could consider. That’s all that is needed! The technicalities and the how-to’s are not important in the grand scheme of things! Once you see the possibilities, your mind can achieve anything. You are no longer stuck or blocked.

Within one month after planting this seed in Mark’s consciousness, he went from a four-figure to a five-figure monthly income. What happened? He had allowed himself to get past his previous manifestation stuck point. He had spent so much time and en-ergy reinforcing and showing himself why

(42)

his monthly income was fixed at a particular level in the past. My words showed him that an alternate reality was possible, and that is all that was needed.

Are you starting to get excited now too at the possibilities? No matter what mani-festations you have been asking for in the past, and no matter how long in coming they have been for you… all that does not matter and never mattered in the first place. Stop trying to find outer-directed steps and ac-tions you should take to fulfil your desires. Give up the need to try any outer-directed actions, techniques or steps to “force” your manifestations into being. Instead, start by identifying the inner stuck points that are holding you up on the inside.

In my previous two examples, there was only one major stuck point holding up each manifestation. Therefore, when we

(43)

managed to think around these stuck points, the manifestations came almost instantly! In some other cases, there may be several stuck points holding the manifestation up which you need to identify and work on. In those cases, we would need to work around each stuck point until we are no longer stuck on any of them. Once you have managed to overcome most of the stuck points surround-ing an intention, you’ll find yourself pro-pelled almost magically in the direction of that desire. But it is not magic, it is Law.

(44)

Chapter 3 - Seeing Through

The Eyes of the Universe

Some readers may be amazed by the fact that by making a few simple inner changes, outer reality matches up perfectly and delivers what you want, every single time. But this is really all that is necessary for outer manifestations to take place. Give up the need to engage in more convoluted, forceful or desperate outer-directed actions. Give up the need to search and look for more advanced techniques! There is nothing more “advanced” than the subtle inner work which one can do, and it is always this inner work which is the most advanced — because so few people ever take the time and effort to do them. We are always looking for outer man-tras, chants and even magical steps to take that make it seem as if lots of things are

(45)

happening… when in actual fact, the sole purpose of all those outer-directed steps is to convince us that something is happening on the inside. The whole purpose of various outer-directed techniques is to help an indi-vidual get past his own manifestation stuck points.

Once you have successfully worked / thought around your inner manifestation stuck points, it does not mean that your de-sires will come to you through the manner specified. Let me explain using the previous example. When Mark successfully thought around the manifestation stuck point that his monthly income was fixed at a particular level, his income actually doubled within the short span of a month. But his corresponding increase in income wasn’t entirely driven by the fact that he managed to group several coaching students together as suggested by me. That wasn’t the full story of how his

(46)

income actually increased. In fact, once he had successfully moved past this stuck point, he started getting more calls and inquiries about his services seemingly out of the blue! He started booking more coaching clients and people started approaching him. There-fore, getting past one’s manifestation stuck points does not entail dictating to the Uni-verse a particular course of action to take. When we successfully overcome our mani-festation stuck points, we are not dictating that things have to happen in a certain way. We are not trying to send any message to the Universe. All we are doing, is to overcome blind-spots in our own thinking. Once we are able to overcome these blind-spots, we open ourselves to the good that the Universe has in store for us. It may be through the means we have imagined, or it may be through even better means.

(47)

Some of our manifestation stuck points can be very pervasive. One of the biggest ones I’ve seen is this: “I don’t think it is pos-sible for me to have this thing or outcome.” As a result of this pervasive stuck point, we find that some people don’t even bother

ask-ing for the thask-ings they want, because they

think they will not get it… or that it is im-possible for them! This happens for every-one, even advanced students of this material. Upon writing the previous chapter, I examined my own life and realized that even I had certain things in life which I “accepted”, because I thought I wouldn’t be able to change them. That is alright as long as you are at peace with these things and conditions in your life. However, don’t fall into the trap of thinking that a particular condition is unchangeable and therefore one has to grit his teeth and bear with it. Anytime you are not at peace with something and find

(48)

it a struggle to “bear” with anything, your discomfort is an indication that it can be changed. It is providing the impulse, the im-petus you need to change it. However, many of us do not even bother asking for an im-proved situation because we are caught by a big manifestation stuck point, which is that the particular condition cannot possibly be changed.

The good news is that once we are able to allow ourselves to think around that stuck point, the outer situation will usually resolve itself very quickly. Sometimes, a mere shift in perception (from moving past the stuck point) will cause a perceived problem to fall apart on its own accord. We may no longer perceive a problem that we perceived in the first place. We have transcended a previous level of understanding. This happens to me all the time. For example, I used to be very hung up when I wrote a nice greeting card to

(49)

an old friend and did not hear back from them. In fact, I would walk around for days wondering if they received the card, and why is it that they have not replied! The desired outcome that I was asking for was to have my friends reply to my letters and cards, which can’t seem to be that difficult in the modern age!

When negative feelings started stewing in me, I decided to do something about it. Remember that any type of negative feelings have an effect on your current and future manifestations, since the Universe is always picking up on the sum total of your thoughts and feelings. Therefore, even though the neg-ative feelings you feel are not directly related to what you are asking for, throwing in these negative feelings into the mix upsets your vi-brational balance. As I sat down and ex-amined this issue closely, I realized that I had a major manifestation stuck point

(50)

surrounding this issue. One that was so big and obvious that I did not realize it in the past. The manifestation stuck point was: “My efforts are unappreciated because my friend did not reply to me.”

Once this stuck point was laid out in plain view, it was easy to see why I felt negat-ive feelings when I did not recenegat-ive a reply. I felt unappreciated! I felt that my efforts were going to waste! Now please understand that manifestation stuck points are always about

us, and nothing about the people that are

in-volved or even named in our stuck points. Therefore, this manifestation stuck point pointed to something inside of myself that needed to be resolved, and nothing about my friends who did not reply to my messages. It is very easy to identify a manifestation stuck point and then cite reasons why these stuck points exist by pointing to the various ex-ternal parties involved. But doing so would

(51)

be falling into the very common trap of giv-ing our power to external events and factors. In other words, if I had continued to put the blame on my friends for making me feel those negative feelings, I would not have re-solved this stuck point at all.

Once the stuck point was identified, I began looking for ways to think around it. Recall it does not matter whether any of the alternative possibilities we come up with are true. What is important is that they allow us to sort out the kinks in our own thinking and feelings. How should one think around the stuck point previously identified? First, I no-ticed that I equated a non-reply with being unappreciated. This strong association made it impossible for me to experience any other reality.

Second, I began to ponder alternative realities. Is it possible that non-reply equals

(52)

appreciation? Definitely! Since there were many times in my life in which I received a greeting card and didn’t have the time to reply. I was certainly thankful and grateful to the sender in my heart, but just didn’t get round to thanking them in writing or in per-son. I should have, but I did not, and I still felt thankful and appreciative of their well-wishes. Therefore, my stuck point was that I equated non-reply with not being appreci-ated, when a non-reply can mean so many other things as well! With that, I had created alternative possibilities for myself. I was no longer stuck on that point. I was free.

With that one single realization, I was completely free. All the negative feelings dis-solved and dissipated. This is a perfect ex-ample of perceiving a problem when there is none. There was not even an issue in the first place, but I perceived one due to my own stuck thinking. I conditioned my good

(53)

feelings on whether my old friends replied to my greetings or otherwise. The moment I got past the manifestation stuck point, it was like a whole new reality. I felt so happy and elated for sending out the card. I felt pure joy in imagining that they received my card and were uplifted by the messages within. I felt pure joy for them and for myself. I was com-pletely free. This has never been about any-thing or anyone else… but only about myself. The only work to do is always on ourselves.

The moment I had this realization, I knew I had cleared another major manifesta-tion block in my life. Sometimes all of our stuck points share a common thread or theme. In this case, the common theme is one of “not being appreciated by others.” In other words: Doing things for others and not being appreciated for them, expecting some kind of “thank you” or reciprocation. But why should our good feelings be conditional

(54)

on whether others reciprocate? Why should we bind them with our own expectations of what’s appropriate or inappropriate, right or wrong? Let us give up all expectations of how anyone else should behave, and cut off all these binds that we have unconsciously im-posed on others. The moment we do that, we are free.

I dropped this whole issue from my mind and went about my day. The very next day, I received a phone call out-of-the-blue from a new client wanting to engage my ser-vices and book me in advance for the new year. I have no way of confirming it, but I know deeply that it happened as a result of me letting go of yet another self-imposed limitation from my life. When we free ourselves from negative feelings and emo-tions, especially recurring ones, we return back to that peaceful and pure state that we have always been. There is another ending to

(55)

this story too. Two days after I successfully dissolved this manifestation stuck point, I

did hear back from my old friend. It turned

out that he was away and did not receive my card in time. I also know that had I not over-come that manifestation stuck point first, this new reality would not have emerged. Outer reality could only match up when I lived a new level of understanding.

I hope I have convinced you about the importance of taking a good look at your manifestation stuck points. Some of them will seem very logical or “obvious” to you, so much so that we dismiss them at first glance as valid obstacles. They should be, since they have always been there since the beginning! That is why our desired good cannot even come through to us! But these perceived obstacles are often manifestation stuck points that need to be addressed, and we handle them not by making them disappear

(56)

on the outside (for example, not by taking outer actions to “force” my friends to reply to me so that I could feel appreciated), but by making them disappear on the inside. Re-member — It is always an inside job! Al-ways. AlAl-ways. AlAl-ways.

When you understand that it all hap-pens on the inside, a very empowering and peaceful feeling comes over you. The day I realized that everything happened on the in-side, and that outer reality simply mirrored everything I felt or perceived on the inside (a saying I had previously heard many times), I felt totally free. I knew, in that moment, that I could manifest absolutely anything I wanted… and it was an exhilarating feeling! For the first time in my life, I was free from other people’s expectations, antics and ac-tions. I knew I could not longer be affected by them if I did not allow myself to. At the same time, I was freeing other people from

(57)

my expectations. They were free to be who-ever they were and I still accepted them wholeheartedly for what they were. When you realize all of these, you are indeed seeing through the eyes of the Universe.

Chapter 4 - How I Discovered

The 95-5 Code

For the first few years in my manifesta-tion journey, I was extremely focused on various manifestation techniques which I could use to manifest my desires. I read al-most every single book out there, took every single course out there and had some success with the techniques… but not as much as I liked. In particular, there were a few inten-tions and desires which continually eluded (and even frustrated) me, as I could never seem to make them work. Despite all of that, I did what most persistent people would. I pressed on, never once stopping to question whether I was moving in the right direction.

Somewhere along the way, I realized I had read almost every single book on the

(59)

subject of manifestation. I had read almost every single take on the topic, and yet things were still not happening! That was when it became a real wake-up call for me. I had two choices: First, I could choose to declare all of these teachings as untrue and turn my back against them. Or second, I could choose to take a good look at what was happening in-side myself. I could scrutinize everything I have been doing up till that point. Choosing option two would have made for a good story, but the truth is that I chose the first option more than once. Those who have read my other books would know that more than once, I turned my back against these teach-ings in disappointment and frustration. I had tried so many different “techniques” out there that I was deluded. But each time I gave up, a calm voice within told me to go back. It was a nudging feeling, something I recognize today as coming from our higher

(60)

selves. It was the divine gently guiding me in the right direction.

The Universe can send us general sig-nals and nudges, but it can never force or compel us to do anything. That’s why Abraham-Hicks always joke that there is nothing they can do to “zap” us into action! Or into changing our beliefs! We have to do it ourselves. However, since a part of us is al-ways connected to Source, that larger part of us is always pulling and calling us forth in the direction of our greater good. I know it is that greater part of myself that called me back to these teachings over-and-over again, because deep down inside, I recognized those teachings as true even when I was un-able to elucidate them as clearly as I do today. So wherever you are on the path right now, rest in the assurance that even if you feel totally lost or clueless, there is still that larger part of you that is gently guiding and

(61)

nudging you in the right direction. All you have to do is to listen to it that one little bit more.

And that’s exactly what I did. I listened to my inner self that one little bit more. The final time I came back to these teachings, I sat down and really examined all of it logic-ally. I reasoned that I had done all the outer-directed actions a person could humanely take. I also reasoned that I had all the tech-nical knowledge on the subject anyone can possibly have. So what was missing? That was when I finally realized that there have been certain aspects of these teachings that I was neglecting. For one, I could not give up my worrying (a topic which I cover in my other book “It Is Done”). I had convinced myself repeatedly that it was alright to worry, since I was doing all these very posit-ive actions on the outside. In other words, I had totally neglected the ‘95’ in the 95-5

(62)

code. I did not pay any attention to what I did during 95% of the time when I wasn’t actively doing all these manifestation tech-niques. It was an eye-opening moment for me, as I realized that even though I was so deeply involved in these various positive techniques… what I did during 95% of my day was still terribly negative and skewed in the other direction!

That was when everything started to click for me. I started to examine all my past manifestations and discovered that whenev-er things happened quickly for me, those were the intentions which I had no manifest-ation stuck points about. I was clear about them right from the start. Then I looked at the things which were not manifest in my life, and discovered (not surprisingly) that I had all these various stuck points around them! The more manifestation stuck points

surrounding an intention, the more

(63)

challenges I had getting it to manifest! I had hoped to press ahead in spite of these mani-festation stuck points, instead of finding clever ways to think around them! That was the crux of the entire issue and the discovery was a real eye-opener for me. It was like a gi-ant weight being lifted off my shoulders!

That was when I became aware of what I did during the 95% of my time. In the be-ginning, I still continued engaging in the various outer manifestation techniques. But the real change came when I began to have conscious awareness over what I did during 95% of the time. It was what made all the dif-ference, and it should — since it represents what we do during most of our waking hours! How you think and feel during the majority of your time makes all the

differ-ence in the speed and timing of your

mani-festations. Whether you are an effective manifestor or not boils down to how you

(64)

manage your inner state during the 95% of the time you are not meditating, praying, af-firming… as opposed to the 5% of the time that you are.

In fact, the moment I placed my con-scious awareness on how I thought and felt during the 95% of my time… The moment I worked to consciously eliminate these mani-festation stuck points… everything happened for me. Longstanding manifestations started coming into my life from all directions, be it in the area of finances, career or relation-ships. Suddenly, everything worked and clicked!

Bear in mind that in the beginning, I was not entirely successful at controlling the way I felt the whole 95% of the time. I was merely shifting my conscious awareness to it. I did not successfully get rid of all of my neg-ative feelings or emotions, but lots of good

(65)

things still happened for me anyway. This is the way it works in our Universe. I am not requesting that you eliminate 100% of your negative thoughts, worries or stuck points from your consciousness right now. That would be doing it the hard way. If you even reduce or think around a single stuck point… that would suffice. Getting rid of that single stuck point will provide the much-needed momentum to move you forward. Therefore, do not ever be concerned that you have too many stuck points to overcome, or that you are constantly thinking negative thoughts all day. Conversely, do not beat yourself up when a negative thought somehow floats through your mind. All I am asking that you do is to reduce the frequency of these negat-ive thoughts, not to eliminate them com-pletely. I’ve found that even a small reduc-tion in negative thoughts can lead to a huge improvement in outer results.

(66)

What happened soon after I cleared up what was going on 95% of my time? As men-tioned earlier, longstanding manifestations which have been “stuck” started coming true for me. Even intentions and desires which I set years ago, and had long given up on and forgotten started coming true for me! In the moment they came true, I had a sense of in-stant recognition and knowing. It was then I realized, “Oh yes! This is what I asked for back then! And it’s true now!” That feeling is truly incredible. Therefore, I now know today that the Universe never forgets any of our intentions and desires unless we choose to change them. Put differently, once we hold an intention, the broader part of ourselves continues holding that intention… and there is no need to keep re-stating our intentions for fear that the Universe misses out on it. There is no “signal” we need to keep broad-casting out there.

(67)

I rarely talk about the downsides, but I should right now and show you a simple workaround. In fact, this is the first time I

will be talking about the seeming

“downsides” of doing any spiritual manifest-ation work. Recall that both our negative and positive strongly-held feelings are attractive / magnetic in nature, and that the Universe does not discern or care about what you ask for. The Universe always gives us whatever is in line with our vibrations. It will give you whatever you ask for, whether consciously or unconsciously, without judging the “right-ness” of it. Therefore, you may ask for something which is considered “bad” by oth-ers, but if you really ask for it and put your-self in alignment with it… you’ll still get it. The Universe simply does not judge.

One thing I discovered after practicing these techniques was the need to deal with my residual fear-based intentions and

(68)

vibrations from the past. Let me give you a simple example. Have you ever heard met one of those unreasonable or rude individu-als at the grocery store, and fantasized about giving them a piece of your mind? Or maybe giving your boss or nasty colleague a piece of your mind? Of course you would not have done it for real, but each time you observed your nasty colleague doing something that riled you, you might have fantasized giving him or her a piece of your mind… and played that satisfying scenario over and over in your mind’s eye just for the fun of it! I myself have “fantasized” over these scenarios even for just a fleeting moment. Guess what, whenev-er we feel strong emotions and feelings, re-gardless of the reasons we are feeling them for… our strong feelings are setting things in-to motion as future physical manifestations!

And so, it was quite amusing to have a few of those instances actually come true for

(69)

me once I started practicing the 95-5 code. Lots of my desired good came to me almost instantaneously, but I also found some of these undesired scenarios materializing for me really fast! It was a really valuable lesson in manifestation for me… Because it was then that I finally understood the impartial-ity and precision of these Universal Laws. They work for whatever you ask for. The Universe always gives you exactly what you ask for (whether consciously or uncon-sciously). By replaying a scenario over and over in my mind vividl, even though I was just fantasizing for the kick of it, I was actu-ally setting a strong intention to have a simil-ar experience in my physical reality. When I cleared all the negative feelings and worries that were standing in the way of my mani-festations, these seemingly “negative” scen-arios manifested in my life for me as well. Therefore, when I found myself in those un-pleasant situations, a part of me was secretly

(70)

saying, “Oh my… These Laws actually work! Look at what’s happening now!” So I was able to recognize the humor of the Universe and move on.

I feel inspired to add a few paragraphs about this subject here because a small por-tion of readers may start having certain “bad things” come true for them, along with the good stuff they have always asked for. Recog-nize that this is a natural consequence of your residual vibrations and what you have asked for in the past. All is always well.

Now some of you may be reading this and find yourselves worried about whether “bad” things will start happening to you out of the blue. There is absolutely no cause for concern as things never happen out-of-the-blue for no reason at all. Note that apart from the one or two isolated incidents, noth-ing “bad” or untoward has happened to me. I

(71)

had tons and tons of ever-flowing, endless good stuff and just two of these seemingly negative experiences coming true for me by comparison. Therefore, do not be worried that bad things you conjured in the past will suddenly start happening for you, because many of those “bad” intentions would have been erased or countered by your sub-sequent and numerous good intentions for well-being and safety. This is the purpose of the time buffer, which is to allow yourself to clarify your intentions. The reason why those one or two incidents still happened for me was because I was feeling neutral about them (a lack of manifestation stuck points), and because I had “rehearsed” those scenarios over-and-over again, each time feeling strong and vivid emotions. In other words, by repeatedly visualizing them, I was “want-ing” them. At the same time, since those scenarios did not really threaten my safety or well-being, I was not setting

(72)

intentions that pushed them away from me. Thus, when I let go of the general fears and worries that were holding my other mani-festations apart from me… these “manifesta-tions” came true for me as well. So don’t worry, bad things will not happen to you once you start practicing these techniques. On the contrary, all the good that you desire will start happening for you very quickly.

This recommended affirmation by Abraham-Hicks is perhaps the most apt for use here: “Today, no matter where I’m going, no matter what I am doing, and no matter who I’m doing it with — it is my dominant intent to look for that which I’m wanting to see.” And it is so!

(73)

Chapter 5 - Understanding

the '5' In The 95-5 Code

So far, we have established the main reason why manifestation techniques do not produce results for most people. The reason is because they are focused on the wrong as-pects of the process! They are channeling ex-cessive amounts of time and energy into 5% of the process, when they should be broaden-ing their awareness to what takes place 95% of the time. This often neglected 95% makes all of the difference. When you successfully change what goes on during 95% of your conscious waking awareness, you would have produced huge changes in your outer real-ity… so much so that you would be a com-pletely different person both on the inside and outside!

(74)

In this chapter, we’ll talk about the ‘5’ in the 95-5 code. In other words, what you should be doing during the 5% (or less) of your time. This is the time in which you act-ively state your intentions or engage in visu-alization and meditation exercises. Before we go into greater detail on what to do, let us get a few common misconceptions out of the way. The first one (a biggie) is that there is no “right” way to engage in all of these mani-festation techniques. As I’ve repeated nu-merous times across all my books, it is useful to give up the idea that there is a “right” way in which you should carry out all these techniques.

New readers often worry about wheth-er they are doing things right, and whethwheth-er they are following the steps exactly as writ-ten. I once read a wonderful book teaching spiritual manifestation exercises, and while I found the book to be absolutely superb, I saw

(75)

readers commenting in the Reviews section that the author was not clear enough on whether they should be breathing this way or that way! Hence, readers were not sure whether they were doing things right! Can you identify the manifestation stuck point here that was preventing some readers from applying those techniques? That’s right, the stuck point is: “There is a right way to do these techniques, and I don’t know what it is since the author did not describe it clearly.”

Now applying what we have learnt in the previous few chapters, and since we can-not get the author to change his writing… let’s see if we can think around that stuck point and instantly produce outer results. How about: “There is no right way to do these techniques as long as I do it!” Now that sounds better and more resourceful. Or how about: “Whatever works is what works for me… These techniques are a wonderful

(76)

starting point!” In fact, this is the very mind-set and attitude I adopt when I learn any new manifestation techniques. I see them as a starting point to reinforce whatever I already know, and to allow greater good to come into my life. A simple shift in perception can make the difference between having no res-ults and amazing resres-ults. So instead of get-ting hung up on whether you are doing things “right”, just go out there and have fun! Just do it already!

Back in my earlier days, I was always worried that these techniques would not “work” if I was distracted. For example, if I was doing them in a fairly noisy place with some noise… I would get irritated and agit-ated that I wasn’t in a quieter place where these techniques could work better. Can you see the manifestation stuck point here again? “These techniques can only work if I do them in an absolutely quiet place.” Which is a

(77)

totally absurd stuck point… since I made that one up for myself! It caused me to feel agit-ated each time there was some noise as I was trying out these techniques, or each time someone interrupted me when I tried them. Can you now see how we are always impos-ing these ridiculous limitations on ourselves?

Understanding the manifestation stuck

points concept will allow you to get past all these frivolous thinking easily and effort-lessly. When I thought around those stuck points, I changed it to: “These techniques work no matter where I try them, as long as I do them.” I can tell you today that all these techniques work no matter where I do them. Even if I am interrupted halfway while doing them, or if I get distracted somehow, I no longer feel agitated or irritated about it. I just smile, go back to what I was doing and simply repeat it again! A simple change in perception produces massive changes in out-er results!

(78)

The second major misconception is that you “need” to do them. Here’s one of the biggest and most counter-intuitive “secrets” ever — There is no need to even engage in this 5%, if you do not want to. Therefore, the ‘5’ in the 95-5 code is completely optional and not compulsory. That’s right. Let me re-peat it again: All of this work is optional and up to you. You can choose not to engage in any of it and still have all your good flowing to you, as long as you take note of the other 95%. Therefore, you can stop doing this work right now if you feel obliged or “forced” to do it. When I reached this level of understand-ing and realization for myself, I immediately dropped all of the forceful asking I was do-ing. From doing lots of it every single day and walking around like an affirmation ma-chine (!), I dropped all of that and just al-lowed myself to be. I alal-lowed myself to be the whole, complete and free being that I

(79)

always was, and always have been… with ab-solutely no need to “ask” or engage in any outer-directed actions. Instead, I focused my energies on the ‘95’ in the 95-5 code… and all the good I desired flowed to me, and more!

Nowadays, I do very little of the ‘5’ in the 95-5 code. In fact, my actual percentage should be closer to 1 - 3% when we base it on the amount of time spent daily. But that 1% produces massive results for me… because I am now leveraging the immense power of that 1% through the remaining 99% of my day. When you put the 95-5 code into prac-tice, amazing things start happening for you and more good than you ever imagined comes into your life. I am not saying this to make you feel good, but because I live it and know it is truly possible for every single per-son who is willing to spend the time to do this work. This is possibly the “easiest” work you’ll ever do in your life… and yet the

(80)

results are massive! So give up the need to try any techniques or force yourself to do them if you do not feel like it. I set a target to spend some quiet time with myself 3 times a day, for 5 to 10 minutes each. But do I do it every single day? On certain days I am so caught up with things and a packed schedule that I do not have the time to do it 3 times a day. Still, the good has not stopped flowing to me because my eyes are never off that ‘95’ in the 95-5 code. When you truly understand the 95-5 code, the ‘5’ is optional.

Now that we have these two major mis-conceptions out of the way, let us look at the ‘5’ in the 95-5 code. As suggested, all the act-ive techniques that you engage in should take up no more than 5% of your time. That is a good guidance and starting point to be-gin with. If you are spending more than 72 minutes (that’s 5%) a day engaged in active manifestation techniques… such as chanting

(81)

mantras, affirmations, new-age healing tech-niques, energy work, spells and so on… you are likely to be counter-productive instead of productive. That’s because you are spending

more than required to produce massive

res-ults in your life!

I know of readers who spend hours on end doing these techniques repeatedly. I used to be one of them too. I would walk around with a stack of self-help books and a long list of techniques to try, one after anoth-er! To be honest, it wasn’t fun for me… be-cause I found it all to be like a chore. It was like forcing myself to go through the mo-tions, yet I was worried that if I stopped do-ing any of them thdo-ings wouldn’t happen for me. Can you infer the inner state of someone who acts like that? His inner state would be filled with worry and desperation! He wants what he wants so badly that he keeps doing

these techniques over-and-over again,

(82)

hoping for things to happen faster. And that very inner state is contrary to the one needed for your manifestations to occur in the first place. Therefore, the first step is to take a good look at the time spent practicing these active techniques. Are you spending more than one hour each day? If so, it might be a good idea to free up some of that time. (Reading time does not count, as reading is not an active manifestation technique.)

Once you have made the conscious de-cision to cut down on the time spent doing these active techniques, what should you do during this sacred time? What should you do during the 5% of your time? As mentioned above, once you live in a truly manifestative inner state… no outer actions are necessary. You literally are at the right place at the right time… People, events and circumstances seem to revolve and happen around you!

(83)

But I know it may not be possible to give up all of your outer-directed actions all at once. You may still choose to engage in

some of them for the time being, so these

fol-lowing suggestions may be useful for you. For me, I still choose to engage in these spir-itual exercises because they feel just so good to me! I do them not because I want to make anything happen on the outside, but because I am reconnecting with and really becoming aware of the divinity within me when I do them.

If you will adopt this mindset when practicing the ‘5’ in the 95-5 code, your manifestations will happen effortlessly be-cause you are no longer pushing against real-ity with a sense of desperation and hurry.
