Manifestation Secrets of the Spiritual Masters

There is a lot of talk these days about the groundbreaking book, The Secret, and about the process of the manifestation of our desires. It’s a fascinating subject. But it is not new information. The Law of Attraction, namely, like attracts like, is a very old knowledge. The bible attests to this when it states, “As ye sow, so shall ye reap”. What you do comes back to you. In India, there is the Law of Karma. It says that “Action comes back to you in equal measure. In Egypt, you have the Code of Hammarabi. It states the familiar, “An eye for an eye”. If you do sometime, it comes back to you equally. Even in Newtonian Physics, action equals reaction. Basically, what we think is what we become. Another way of saying this is that we manifest what our attention is on. This has been the message of such great modern thinkers as Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Wayne Dyer, and motivational guru Toni Robbins.

Another point is that understanding the Law of Attraction is one thing, but being able to apply it in practical life is another. Here’s what I mean. If my mind is cluttered with a bunch of thoughts, how can I maintain my attention on what I desire long enough to manifest it. Let me give you a specific example. Let’s say that you and I and an Indian yogi, are hungry and we each put our attention manifesting a Kit Kat bar. What will happen? While you and I will remain struggling and hungry, the yogi will be enjoying his Kit Kat bar. For him, the bar manifested almost as soon as he thought the words Kit Kat. Why? The yogis’ attention is powerful and unbroken. He has cultured his brain and nervous system to manifest his desires with great efficiency.

Finally, the manifestation of objects such as houses, wealth and relationships are fine in themselves, but they do not guarantee happiness. This is a point that the Buddha made thousands of years ago. He concludes that desire and manifestation were actually the source of unhappiness. The Buddha devoted the rest of his life to finding a way to get beyond the problem of craving and desire.

To me, manifestation is just the mechanism through which Grace enters our world. Manifestation is the relationship of the subject to the object over time. The reality, and I use the term loosely, is that all of the objects of our everyday experience, are thoughts that have turned into matter. So, I thought that I would begin with a couple of manifestation stories to highlight this point.

Miracle Manifestation

Many times people would come to see me with very specific requests. They needed something right away. Here is an example. One day, a couple visited me at my office in Chennai. It seems that they were both school teachers who had been offered teaching positions in Atlanta, Georgia in the U.S. Unfortunately, this was post 9/11 and it was very difficult for Indian nationals to obtain the proper visas to travel to the U.S. This poor couple had been waiting for more than a year. They had given up their lucrative teaching jobs in Chennai and sold their house assuming that they would be leaving shortly. When I saw them, they were desperate and almost out of money. They asked me for a technique to help them manifest their desire to go to the U.S. I had them sit and close their eyes. Then I asked them put attention at the third eye (between the eyebrows). I asked them to picture a bright light there. Then I asked them each to imagine going to their mailbox where they lived and opening a letter. The letter contained their new travel visas. I had them place this image in their third eye and fill the image with a bright white light. This was at 11 o’clock in the morning. That night I was giving a lecture when my interpreter pulled me aside. He told me that the couple had just called. He said that they had come home and checked their mailbox only to find the letter with their travel visas just as they had pictured in my office. The question is, did the visas create the need for the mental image in my office or did the mental image in my office create the visas? The answer is that Grace created a synchronicity. Who cares whether the chicken or the egg came first.

How did this manifestation take place? What was the mechanism? Today, I want share with you some of the secrets of yogic manifestation. To accomplish this, it is first necessary to acquaint you with the mechanics of the human mind. Let’s begin with the term Samadhi. Yogis often use the term Samadhi. It is said to be the highest experience of yogic meditation. But Samadhi is not a useful state if we want to manifest our desires. Here’s why. Samadhi is a state of perfect silence. In Samadhi, this world vanishes and only pure conscious (consciousness without an object) remains. Nothing is left. The state of pure consciousness is a state of no movement. There are no qualities; no subject; no object; no relationship. Unfortunately, no desire can be entertained in Samadhi and manifestation requires desire. MANIFESTATION REQUIRES A RELATIONSHIP OF SUBJECT TO OBJECT OVER TIME. Yogis manifest from within the sphere of matter and change. They manifest from a spot where pure consciousness turns into matter. I will teach you how to take your awareness to this point. I will be teach you step by step how to manifest.

I am often asked the question, “Why can’t I manifest”? The answer is that you are desiring your manifestation from a false sense of I. You see your personal “I” and the world that your “I” exists in as separate. So you believe that it takes a lot of effort to put your desires into this foreign land that you live in. In reality, there is no difference between you and what you experience. Both take place inside the real you. You could not exist without the not-you so the not you is you too. Feel it. Look closely. Be perfectly still. To do this, completely stop your eyes and tongue from moving. (Try this for one minute)You are the other as much as you are yourself. Neither can exist independently of the other. Desiring and manifesting are just two sides of the same coin. Become the coin. The object of your desire is just you in reverse. A yogi has no trouble manifesting because he sees that he is actually the object of his desire. If a yogi desires a Lexus, he becomes it. The yogi moves effortlessly between subject and object. The yogi is both because the yogi is One with all things. He is living reality. The yogi lives the truth. To continue with this article, please click on americanbuddha.net.
