We are talking about manifesting,
you can't!
God did not create you
to manifest!
You have absolutely
no power of mind to manifest
and what is manifesting?
Manifesting but wanting!
What we just say
you want to empty
your mind of wanting,
you know.
More of what?
I want to manifest
more of this in my life,
more of that in my life.
Who's doing the manifesting,
The spirit of the ego!
Let's talk straight here!
Is the Spirit a manifestor.
Ohhhh no,
the Spirit,
is the "I AM PRESENCE OF GOD"
and the Spirit
is not a manifestor!
You don't have the power to manifest.
Even, in the Course
he says, the teaching from the Bible
the word was made flesh,
Jesus says,
strictly speaking,
this is impossible!
That's Jesus's words,
impossible.
You can't manifest!
You've never been able to manifest
the damn thing.
So, why work at it?
Why try to use the power
of your mind
to make something different in form,
when the form is the past?
You think you can make a better version of the past?
Do you think anyone
has ever succeeded in making
a better version of the past?
Do you think you can improve upon illusions?
When illusions...
The very meaning of illusions
is nothing!
How can you make a better nothing?
Really?!
It's so fair for who could that understand that logic!
Making a better nothing!
So, we're not
into the power of manisfesting,
we're into the power of joy!
Power of happiness,
and we really start to see
that, you know,
people would say, well you...
how can you live your life
if you not trying to improve
the world?
You know!
It's easy!
It's really easy.
To live that way,
it's difficult
to try to continue
to mix metaphors
and spiritualized matter.
You know, that's what manifesting
is an attempt to do.
It's attempt to spiritualized matter
as we talked about the other day.
It's just...
it's not possible,
and the joy comes from
seeing that you need to compromise.
So...
