Who knows what your aunt saw but if one is convinced then there reality changes and they act accordingly depending how deep it is.

We had this teacher who instead of teaching physics was giving us sermons on islam, how great it is and so on. Most of us didn't care but there was this student, senior to me and he changed completely. threw away his cds, started growing a beard, was on his way to become a maulana.

I was a Muslim back then myself, we all were but on some level even then it didn't set with me well, I felt something was off.

so you can be brainwashed by anyone even by enlightened masters forget others. Mind is malleable.

but I've heard stories of Mansarovar and kaashi. energies apparently are very strong there so who knows what's going on there

I mentioned louise hay earlier. She cured her cancer too and helped many people. Her book "you can heal your life is awesome.

affirmations can work but not necessarily. You have to see what comes up. When you affirm something, you're saying something you don't believe yet but doing it so you can believe it, once you believe it, it becomes your reality.

so if you believe you're unhealthy and always sick then you affirm you're healthy and fit. There are many ways to do it but then your critical mind will say no you aren't and show you the evidence that's why hypnosis is better same with subliminals.

Point is to deliver the message to your subconscious mind and change its opinion about the given subject.

if you can be in alpha state then you can affirm in front of a mirror and see the resistance that comes up because it doesn't feel like the truth then you need to use a releasing tool to let go of that resistance or anger whatever it is. You can use eft, deep peat, pstec, hoponopo and many more

Haven't heard of that guy

karma is misunderstood. It's seen as you doing something wrong and being punished for it whether here or in next life. That's not the truth nor healthy way to view it.

This implies a deep belief that we're all faulty human beings, something's wrong with us and we need to be punished for it. It produces guilt, shame, fear, unworthiness, etc

there's only course correction. cause/effect. Maybe you can see the cause maybe not, maybe it's related to you or maybe not related to you at all like you getting in an accident. maybe it's related to what you did in past life but it's not because you're being punished it might just be the residual energy of it still remaining and playing it's part.

it's just memory and consequence of action like if I keep thinking about food sooner or later I'll get hungry that's my karma my doing.

thinking about food was the cause of me getting hungry. Thinking about lost opportunities is the cause of me getting depressed, thinking about that incident is the cause of my anger and so on

but all that energy is stored in the system so it'll play itself out that's also your doing. That energy will move in a certain direction those will be your tendencies. Physicians now can confirm that children born already have certain kind of energy. They don't call it that but call it personality but it's much more than that

anyways don't believe in this nonsense in anything that disempowers you.

It's very insensitive of someone getting sick or losing their limbs or job or any other disaster and then saying to them it's your karma, not done. I see it in this forum many times and it's like people getting this kick out of it.

If interested read frederick dodsons book "lives of the soul

he's a great teacher and very awake so I trust him when it comes to this

Ajna chakra, you just focus on the area between your eyebrows. It's to activate your pineal gland.

there's nothing to be scared of just close your eyes for 10mins and observe everything that's happening within you within judging it. Just observe.

Affirmations are just thoughts so your current thoughts are also affirmations you already believe in.

when you've a thought that's real for you, you don't see it as a thought but reality itself.

So the whole endeavor is to change that so of course your subconscious is going to reject it as it doesn't match with the info it already has that's why I suggested releasing tools when you feel resistance to it.

so you can be 20 pounds overweight and believe you're fat therefore also believe you're ugly and unattractive so what do you think you're gonna see in the mirror? A fat ugly unattractive girl.

If that becomes real for you then you don't believe it you experience it as believes will find evidence to support itself so you'll consciously or unconsciously find evidence and see everything through that filter

So it's not about just a few affirmations but your whole life story of who you're and what you experience

The existing believes are already there so to change those will take time. Your subconscious will outright reject it that's why I said to go to alpha state then your mind is blank and your critical mind isn't there to doubt it

realize the current story you tell yourself is also just thought forms, they're not real either. like even if you're overweight and you believe you're fat is a story. You can say it's real look at my body but the story around it is still a story.

Once you change how you see yourself meaning as a lean person that's the moment everything inside you will start working on it like changing diet and exercise then the outside reality will reflect what's on the inside

We've given to much power to the outside reality to determine what happens within us when in reality it's inside out.

You change your thoughts, beliefs, your story and the outside reality changes as most of us live in a virtual world of thoughts and emotions, we see things through our lens, through our filters, we don't really live in reality anyway. We live through the stories we tell ourselves about everything.

so check out Louis hay. Joseph murphy

Also subliminals work much better than affirmations so you can try those

You just need to try good ones. Two people that are really good are talmadge harper and subliminal club

Subliminal shop is too expensive but I didn't get anything out of it so don't think they work although it has worked for some

Even with subliminals you'll feel resistance so again it's best to use some tool like eft or pstec. Pstec has really good reviews check it out

With affirmations you can see it as a game like you're playing this character who is that person and has those things, it could be fun 😃

It's okay if you're not convinced you just say it anyway with as much conviction as you can. If you were convinced you wouldn't need it in the first place.

do it in front of the mirror in the morning and at night. In no time you'll start believing it also look for evidence big or small to support your new story and discard any evidence to contrary.

You can change every thought in the moment so when you feel like it's not working you can say it is working, and find reasons why it's working. It just needs momentum and then your feelings will change too. It just takes a little time.

Hypnosis can work wonders. Another way to reprogram your subconscious

Check out melissa peer. Glenn harrold.

Dodson is great but maybe it's too advanced? I don't know. To me he makes perfect sense but maybe it's because I've already read other spiritual books and with meditation so makes sense.

But he just doesn't have theories it's practical.

have you checked out his reality creation course? That's more in line with metaphysics and manifesting

His enlightenment technique is also great for releasing

I think that's a trust issue like you're threatened and need to be on guard so can't relax and close your eyes?

Being alert is good for meditation but having your focus on the wrong thing isn't like you need to watch out.

Jeru kabbal talks about that. He has a breathing meditation technique which is really good.

Also the video I posted of Anthony, he doesn't really suggest to close your eyes. You can reach silence while just observing, looking, listening.

but do find out why you can't relax. I'd suggest to actually go into it even if it's scary like your heart pounding just stay with it and trust the existence.

We all on some level feel unsafe. It's because as kids we were helpless so on some level we still feel that helplessness so gotta be prepared for that imaginary threat 😆

anyways try it out see how it goes. It can work 😃

Affirmations are so hard for me. Like you said, you are saying things that you don't completely believe in yet, so hard to visualize and feel what you are saying. So the intensity is lost.

But like I mentioned in one of my earlier posts, it's possible to trick your mind briefly, like the example that I gave wherein I say it is warm when I step out in the cold and you feel a gush of warmth in your body. Lot of people believe in affirmations. Dandapani too talks about it and says that for affirmations to work it needs to have these 3 characteristics (1) conscise use of words (2) visualization (3) feeling

I've noticed that when I'm in a happy or peaceful state of mind, I kinda believe in the affirmations I'm stating. However, if I'm disturbed and try to say those same affirmations, I feel as if I'm fooling myself. I am myself not convinced in what I'm saying.

I think Karma is kinda hard to understand considering we only know the body that we have now, however the soul is old and has memories from the past lives and hence knows why we go through what we go through. So I guess in that way, it makes sense.

As for Fredrick Dodson, I just can't relate to him. I think I'm still at that stage where I can relate and understand when people talk in simple terms. Dodson is somewhere else and is something else. I prefer the likes of Dr. Joe Dispenza or Dandapani. Ofcourse, even if I understand and think what they are suggesting makes perfect sense and will improve the quality of life, I do nothing about it. That's a different story though.

Meditation is just so hard for me. I'm always on the edge and find it hard to close my eyes (even if it is a guided meditation). My heart starts to pound and my mind tells me that I have to be aware and alert of my surroundings. I find it extremely uneasy to close my eyes while I'm awake.

I checked out 1-2 videos of Anthony De Mello. He is good. Thanks for all the books and video recommendations btw

Subliminals are messages like affirmations but they're directed at subconscious so you don't even hear the suggestions. It's done so your critical mind doesn't have a chance to reject them

Subliminal messaging is done in advertising all the time. They try to put suggestions to buy their products. When you hear that music playing in that store don't think it's just music, most of them put subliminals into them

you can still resist and resistance shows up quite frequently that's actually good it means they're working

Subliminals alone can work but better to use some release technique when faced with resistance so the new message is accepted by your subconscious once that done then you'll see real changes

the resistance is there because it's not your reality yet like with affirmations as you said it doesn't feel true
