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...
