How to Get Your Hands on Success
The teachers and gurus all tell us that everything we want is literally within our reach.
What can they possibly mean by this?
Remember the timelines and the "parallel universes" that I mentioned in an earlier lesson? Let's go back and play with that idea for a bit because it's going to be useful in helping us learn to think of everything as being within our grasp.
Let's think back to those threads of events that constantly branch and branch again, with every decision we make. There are lots of parallel threads, and lots of different things are all potentially happening at the same time. Even though they're not happening to you right now, they are happening to some other version of you.
Now, please understand: a theory doesn't have to be "true" to be useful. This is just a theory - a model - that we're going to use to help us understand how things might be possible. And more importantly, I'm not asking you to believe in this theory. You don't have to believe in something to use it. You don't have to believe in the rules of soccer, for instance, to use those rules for organizing a game and having a great time.
So, here we have all those parallel threads. And scattered out among some of them are alternate "you's" where some of "you" are enjoying things you've always wanted. In other words, somewhere out there is a version of you who already has what you want.
We've already talked about this before.
Now, what's the point of this theory? As long as you clearly know what it is that you want, you can probably have it.
Here's the secret. Just imagine reaching out across all those parallel threads of alternate "you's" with a pair of mental hands, and use them to grab hold of what you want.
Then mentally pull it toward you with a firm mental grip. Hold it mentally close to you; keep on holding it, every time you think of it, day or night feel it there with you, close to you. It's yours - right now. You already have it within your mental grasp.
No, you don't have to know which time line or thread it's on. When you turn your TV set to channel seven, you don't know what frequency that is, do you? It really doesn't matter.
And likewise, when you tune your mind across the threads of time, it doesn't matter where that is, either. Just keep your mental grip on what you want, don't let it go, and you'll gradually draw it into your "reality," which means you draw it into your own timeline. You have claimed ownership of it, and you're not letting it get away from you.
I like to imagine that my other self and I are drawing together and merging. Even more crucial, I like to think that not only is he bringing me something I want, but at the same time I'm bringing something that he wants, too. That way we both gain and become more integrated and complete. Do you have to know what he wants? No... let him take care of that part. Just know that you two make a compatible pairing.
This process is totally different from wanting something. Wanting is a feeling of separation. This is a merging
When you want a thing, it's absent from your life. But with this process, you already know it exists, you've gone out and found it, claimed it, and you even have your (mental) hands on it. It's not lacking, it's just in transit to you. So you're not wanting it, you're in the process of receiving it.
Voila! No more wanting things, only receiving.
As I mentioned earlier, it's sort of like mental mail-order.
You know, the universe, with all its parallel time lines, is like Ali Baba's cave. Every treasure you could possibly ever have is in that cave. Your mind is the door to that treasure cave, and your mental hands are the "Open Sesame." With those hands, you can reach into the cave and draw forth every treasure possible.
Will this impoverish those other fractionated versions of yourself? Are you taking anything away from them? No, I don't believe so.
I picture this as re-uniting some of the fractionated parts of myself so that, together, we become more whole. One part of me is capable of having great riches. Another part of me over in another time line has great intellectual powers. Still another knows everything about music. And maybe I can contribute my understanding of time lines and mental hands. So we all gain and grow stronger.
When you look at it like that, maybe this is the true meaning of "soul mates" rather than the male-female paradigm that's been used for so many centuries. Maybe your real soul mates are all those other parts of yourself that really do make you more complete.
