People frequently ask questions of the Reconnections about MANIFESTATION. Yes, we create our own reality. But how do we manifest? Are there any specific techniques to use? Can there be pitfalls, and if so......how can they be avoided? In attempting to answer, the Guides are careful to remind folks that humanity is between Paradigms right now. Some of us have one foot in a Separation Paradigm, and one foot in a Paradigm honoring the Integration of Universal Oneness and Multidimensionality.

For those still involved in the Separation Paradigm, the idea of Manifestation seems very much like the practice of Magic. First, you don't see it, then you do! Mountains of books have been written about this subject. Days and weeks of seminars, workshops, and retreats have been scheduled.......all centered around the goal of learning how to attain the manner of living each of us wants.

With the release of books and movies like "The Secret," there has been a resurgence of enthusiasm around the idea of Conscious Manifestation. As it was back in the 1970s, our natural inclination was to place a huge amount of emphasis on the Power of MIND in the process. What still seems to be lacking today is the inclusion of EMOTION and OVERALL ENERGY INCLINATION, over and above what we consciously try to "program." I spoke about this in my article "Beyond the Secret."

The promise issued by those who share in "The Secret" is: "You can have, do, or be..........ANYTHING you want." And this is very true. But the integration of a Oneness Paradigm puts a person face-to-face with the fact that we are EVERYTHING, pretending to be SOMETHING. And the Universe of our Perception........every bit of it.........is but a TINY MIRROR of the vast and limitless ALL-NESS which we are. MORE
