Correcting Subconscious Beliefs
The implications of what you’ve just learned are staggering.With a little more instruction and practice, you will be able to get all the answers you need to manifest great abundance. That alone is astonishing. It is incredible that each of us has access to all knowledge, but this is the simple truth.
Even with as little as we know about the brain, we marvel at its complexity. The countless miles of nerves, the infinite connections, the delicate chemistry, the role of genetics, the specialized compartments and functions are only openers.We know we have just begun to understand --if we can even use that word--how the brain fits into the whole scheme of creation.
One day biologists and psychologists will discover the brain is only one piece of a greater marvel. The brain will be considered akin to a large transformer in a power substation where energy arrives to be transformed into useful current.
In similar fashion, the brain is connected to a source of infinite intelligence, and it transforms it into useful knowledge. Intelligence is an aspect of energy. It is ordered, specific, and carries codes or information that can be read and understood by the brain.
This intelligence permeates all of creation. There is no way to escape it. Because we are part of creation, of nature, we wallow in that sea of intelligence. This is the same intelligence that comes up with the infinite variety of DNA and the life forms it produces. It is the same intelligence that keeps planets in perfect order, brings about seasons, blends earth, air, fire, and water, and struggles to preserve the balance of nature. Nothing is not touched by this intelligence because nothing is not from this intelligence.
Catch that last sentence: nothing is not touched by this intelligence because nothing is not from this intelligence. Intelligence has made everything. Everything is from intelligence. Whatever appears in creation is really just a product of intelligence. Everything came from the same intelligence.
You are that intelligence.You were created by it--whether at birth, or inception, or eons ago is immaterial. You are now created, and you have retained the intelligence that created you.
That is key. By retaining the intelligence that created you, you retain its qualities, its powers, and its properties. All the intelligence of the cosmos is retained in you. That is why you can develop techniques to learn anything you need to know. That is why your brain responds and gives you "Yes" and "No" signals to tap into that intelligence.
It is the need to know that governs. But what do you need to know? You need to know your role in preserving order, how to evolve with the natural scheme of things, how to develop your innate qualities, and how to get in touch with your nature. For these purposes you can be all-knowing. Humankind forgot long ago these were the ultimate purposes of our precious lives. Since our link to infinite intelligence is strictly for advancing those ultimate purposes, the link was not used and withered. Instead, we embarked on power trips, on selfish hoarding, on wars, and on anger.
We lost touch with the guiding light of intelligence. Without the guide, we lost direction. Now life is a struggle. Poverty flourishes. Sickness ensues. Unfairness is everywhere.
When we lost touch with our innate intelligence, we lost our abundance, money, and the multifarious forms of wealth. That is where most of us are now.We are in a vast lake of water, yet dying from thirst. We are floating in intelligence that can guide us to our birthright of wealth. Whether or not we see that, accept it, and allow it to become part of our life is up to each of us individually.We each have free-will to accept or reject.
You may not understand fully the mechanics of how cosmic intelligence fits into our lives, how we were created by it, how it remains a part of us, or how we accept or reject its properties. It isn’t important that you do. Nevertheless, you have experienced your connection to it with your "Yes" and "No" signals.
When you asked for the "Yes", then the "No" signal, you were essentially asking to be connected to that intelligence. That is the first step. The phone lines are in. Now it is time to learn how to use the line. Incidentally, the phone is on a party line. You do not have exclusive use of the line. Everyone else has the very same right. That’s important for you to keep in mind as this knowledge unfolds. Some people tend to feel better, or more developed, or special when these techniques are learned. If those thoughts start to creep in, let them go. You are indeed unique and special. However, everyone else has the same access to the same intelligence of the cosmos that you have.
In the next exercises you practice accessing this intelligence to discover knowledge you need to know. This book sets out a path to garner money, but by now you may suspect that your new techniques will open up far more. That be as it may, let’s refocus now on money.
Yeah--money!!
We all want money, Right? Well, yes and no. You may indeed think you want money, but there could be some deep-seated fear about getting it. Maybe you are afraid your friends will think you’re too uppity and leave you. Maybe you’re afraid to manage it--all those investment decisions. Maybe you’re afraid you’ll loose your ambition, or that your personality will change.Maybe you’re afraid money will make it impossible to continue your career.
If you don’t experience abundance, you can be certain you have some deep fear about having money. It represents pain to you. I realize that is not what you think you think. Consciously you want money and you can see all the benefits it could bring. Nevertheless, if you don’t now experience abundance, you have some deep-seated fear that you need to come to grips with.
Subconscious thoughts can be a real thorn in each of our lives. They lie below the surface and scream at us. We aren’t able to hear them clearly, but some part of our brain does.Whenever the brain is about to feed us a thought on what to do next, it may hear one of these subconscious thoughts.
Let us say you are approached by a friend to go into a partnership to make art posters. It sounds like minimal risk, a good return, little capital requirements, and even fun.You’re about to yell "Yes"when the brain hears "I think I’d be happier without money; money is the root of all evil; it is easier for a rich man to go through the eye of a needle than enter the gates of heaven." So, you’re fed a feeling of fear by your brain, and you pass up the opportunity to make the investment. You don’t know why, and you may never know. You just can’t.
These subconscious thoughts can torpedo each and every safe and clear chance to make money. They do, and they will. They will torpedo as long as they are there. I am not saying anything new. Psychologists have known for decades the role our subconscious plays. All kinds of therapies have been developed to get down there, see them, tear them out, relive the experience that put them there, and replace them. Each of these therapies has its place, and certainly, each has contributed to our understanding about the role of our subconscious beliefs. Now you’re going to experience a very easy technique that can revolutionize all approaches for dealing with the subconscious.
You are going to ask that all-knowing intelligence within you what beliefs you have that interfere with making money. Then you’re going to erase that belief and replace it with a more appropriate one. This is the first task of your "Yes" and "No" signals. It will work because this is knowledge you need to know to accomplish your ultimate purposes.
The six step procedure is called The Subconscious Cleansing.
Memorize the steps before beginning.
Step One is ten minutes of The Basic Practice focusing on your money rhythm.
In Step Two think, "Give me a subconscious belief I have that interferes with making money." Listen for the answer. It will appear in your mind as any other thought. When you have it, ask, "Do I have a false belief that (then state it)?"
If your "Yes" and "No" signals verify the false belief, write it down in your journal, labeled "False". That is Step Three.
In Step Four close your eyes again and get settled down. Then ask, "What is the correct belief?" Use the same procedure to find out and verify the correct belief.When you have it, write it in your journal next to the false belief, and label it "Truth".
Step Five is repeating the process for about ten minutes. Take a couple of minutes and come out slowly to avoid roughness.
Repeat The Subconscious Cleansing twice a day for the next few days until you’re certain you’ve discovered all of the false beliefs and corrected them.
This is an exercise you’ll need to repeat periodically the rest of your life. New levels of beliefs surface to be cleansed, and false beliefs find their way in. Stay on top of it. Make certain you always have in your subconscious mind beliefs that support wealth.
You can correct your beliefs easily because you are in charge of your subconscious mind. It is your servant. You place beliefs into your subconscious because you think they are very important and true. You want them to override whatever else you think, without rethinking them each time. That is why you program them as automatic thinking. It is quite an efficient system as long as the beliefs are correct and serve you well.
Since you put the beliefs in the subconscious mind, you can change them. Changing the subconscious is like changing any computer: erase the old, put in the new. You do this with your intention. It is just a matter of intending.What you intend to believe is what will appear in the subconscious mind.
To be certain that your intention is perfectly clear, create a kind of ceremony to destroy the false belief. This is Step Six. Any ceremony that seems most fun and meaningful is fine. Keep in mind you are showing your brain what is your intention. I write the false belief on a piece of paper, then burn it. Put on your creative hat and come up with something very special just for you.
After you have destroyed the old belief, do something similar for the correct belief--the Truth--to exalt it. Some people write it down and place it on the bathroom mirror or the refrigerator. Others put it in a bible or other holy book. Writing it in your journal may be enough. Whatever you do is just to signify your intention.
There you have it. In one big swoop you can discover a false belief that limits money in your life. In another swoop you can correct the belief with Truth.
This is the first concrete step toward making money. More importantly, this is the first step in using the intelligence you are--the intelligence of the cosmos. You are created to live a life of abundance, and the intelligence behind all of creation is there to assist. Go for it.
