Originally this book series was meant to end at chapter 8 of this book. After years of work studying the subconscious mind and writing about it, I was glad to finally be done and began the process of getting it ready for release. However, in between the time of completing chapter 8 and preparing this book for release, I went through something of a spiritual crisis which caused me to take a great deal of interest in near death experiences. Although I had always been curious about near death experiences and treated them as a legitimate resource of information regarding the supernatural, I hadn’t ever really obsessed over them or spent a large portion of my time researching them. It was more like, I’d come across them every so often and would then try to use them to further my understanding of spirituality. However this all changed during my spiritual crisis. Around this time, I began looking into near death experiences much more deeply and, without really intending to, began studying them very intensely – much more so than I ever had before. What was interesting about my perspective this time was that I was able to study these experiences through the lens of my understanding of subconscious energy mechanics – something I did not have much of a concept of prior. As I continued to listen to more and more of these different accounts of NDE experiences, I believe I actually began to see the “bigger picture” of reality as it relates to metaphysics. In this case, the term “metaphysics” refers to the mechanics of the spiritual world which exists beyond this physical one. Because I felt I’d learned so much valuable information during this time, I’ve decided to include it in this book through these last two chapters. In this first chapter, we will discuss some of the basic properties of manifestation and will then explore what I’ve come to believe is the nature of our soul. In the next chapter, we will talk even more deeply about the topics discussed in this chapter by going over what I believe to be the most fundamental laws of metaphysics.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH SLEEP APNEA

After spending so many years studying the subconscious and writing this book series, which was initially only one book at the time, I was quite happy to finally be coming to the end of it. Although I suspect I will always be studying subconscious energy in some form or fashion, I’d rather it not also be the case that I’m always writing. Honestly I do not like to write at all and have never had any real interest in it. As I eagerly came close to finally completing this book, I decided to take some time off from my job so that I could accomplish just that. During this time I was essentially locked away in my room writing non-stop, day in and day out. Well, at some point, I noticed that I started to have trouble sleeping and breathing. It wasn’t terribly bad at this time but I could tell that something was off. I would often wake up not feeling fully recharged and felt like I needed more sleep not long after waking up. Furthermore, I had this sense that my body had a much weaker cardiovascular system. At first, I just thought that I needed to exercise more as the way I was feeling seemed similar to when I go too long without it. At the same time though I could also tell that what I was feeling was a little different from those times too. I probably should’ve looked into it more early on but I was just far too focused on finishing this book and simply ignored it. Well eventually, as you might have expected, it got worse and worse. I then started to notice that I was feeling more and more anxious as well. It was like there was this feeling of impending doom that stuck with me all the time. I wasn’t charging my subconscious much during this time because I needed to stay focused on writing and charging my subconscious for stuff that was actually fun always interfered with that focus, so I just endured it.

          Well one day I got really anxious and this feeling of impending doom got much stronger. That feeling alone would have been bad enough but it actually got much worse than that. That same day I noticed that I couldn’t sleep at all. It was clear that this wasn’t just a matter of having a little insomnia or a little trouble sleeping. I knew that something more was going on here. No matter how hard I tried, I simply could not sleep. Every time I tried and my mind started to drift, I’d get more anxious and could feel my heart pound more strongly. This would always wake me back up and cause me to have to try to sleep again, in which case the same thing would happen later and the cycle would just repeat itself. Eventually I would just stop trying to sleep and would have to get up and go about my day without it. Needless to say, I was extremely tired and could barely function. Yet no matter how tired I was, I simply could not go to sleep for much of the time. And to make matters worse, because I’d kept trying to go to sleep initially but could not, I had to stay awake for an even longer period of time later to build up what I later learned to be called “sleep pressure” or “sleep drive”. This refers to your body’s effort to get you to fall asleep. Normally this drive increases as you’re working throughout the day and helps you to easily go to sleep at night. However, this drive gets used up in a sense each time you try to go to sleep. If you do try to sleep but are unsuccessful in actually falling asleep, you’ll have still used up some of your sleep drive and will now need to stay awake for a little while longer if wish to recover some of the sleep drive you just used up.

          Well because I’d kept trying to force myself to sleep, I’d keep using up more and more of my sleep drive and would need to stay awake for extremely long periods of time in order to replenish it. Of course I didn’t know any of this initially as I’d never had any reason to research the intricacies of sleeping and disabilities or diseases associated with it. It was so bad at first, I thought I might actually die from not being able to go to sleep. I remember being shocked at just how long a normal 24 hour day really was. When you don’t sleep, a normal day actually feels like two days. Remembering things that occurred at the beginning of the day feels like trying to remember something that happened yesterday. It was really bad for me at that time. About a day and a half after this all started, I finally managed to get some sleep early in the morning. This at least confirmed for me that I was still capable of sleeping. However, I woke up again after about only 1.5 to 2 hours. This was after being awake for most of a day and half. I did feel a little better but quickly became exhausted again and still kept feeling this sense of impending doom and intense anxiety. Because my anxiety was so bad, I had to watch family and general audience rated movies so that my anxiety wouldn’t be triggered. I even started watching kids movies since those triggered my anxiety the least. Normally I don’t even watch much tv, but I started doing so during that time because I had to do something to pass the time. Bare in mind I did not have the mental acuity needed to keep writing or to do anything really that was actually productive.

          During that time I was very focused on God and started praying to him more and more. It was around that time that I came up with the concept of the spiritual trade off effect and decided that I wanted avoid behaviors that push spiritual energy away. Well, because I was so focused on God, I thought I’d done something to offend him and believed that maybe he cursed me with not be able to sleep. I know that might sound a bit silly to say now but that kind of thinking is actually a side effect of high anxiety. Because I thought God cursed me, I didn’t even try to start using my “scientific mind” to study my condition and try to figure out what the problem was and how to find a solution to it. Obviously if God will’s something to be true, there’s clearly nothing I can do to get around it. However, as I prayed to God even more during this time of crisis, I would have certain spiritual experiences that indicated to me that maybe he had not cursed me after all and that this problem was actually something else. However I couldn't understand what it possibly was since it seemed to come on so suddenly and was so intense. Funny thing was, I actually thought about using intention to charge my subconscious in a way that compelled my body to sleep. I actually did do this a little bit and found that I was actually able to sleep more easily when I did. However I did not want to really go too far with this approach because it may not have solved the underlying problem causing my inability to sleep. If a person is sick because they’re not eating enough vitamins, giving them pain killers and anti-inflammatory medicine will help them feel better but it won’t solve the underlying problem causing the condition in the first place. It will just get worse.

          Before I could try to charge my way out of this condition, I first needed to know what was actually causing it physically. After finally doing some research and attempting to figure out what the problem was, I eventually came to suspect that I had a condition called sleep apnea. This was something I’d never heard of before and had no concept of how it worked or what problems it created. However, based on my research, the symptoms of this condition seemed to fit what I was experiencing perfectly. This includes the intense anxiety I was feeling all the time around then. Eventually I’d done a sleep test and found that I had severe sleep apnea. I got a device called an apap machine and eventually, though not right away, got better and better sleep. Now I’m able to sleep pretty normally again and can actually enjoy the process of sleeping again. However during this time of crisis, since I felt like I was going to die, I had developed a renewed interest in near death experiences. I started researching them almost obsessively and had a great deal of free time to do so since I wasn’t working and wasn’t sleeping. I was mostly just looking in to them to get a sense of comfort regarding what awaits me in the afterlife. However, what was interesting was that I began to think about much of what these NDErs were saying in terms of what I already knew about the subconscious mind. This gave me a much broader perspective about reality and the nature of the subconscious mind. I started to think about concepts in subconscious energy mechanics on a much larger and more metaphysical scale than had ever occurred to me previously. Eventually, when I started to get better sleep, I started theorizing – as I’m always doing – even more about the subconscious but doing so in terms of its relation to metaphysics. In this chapter and the next, I will discuss the most important principles of what I believe I’ve come to understand about the nature of reality and the make up of the self as a result of studying NDEs.

MANIFESTATION AND THE SUPERCONSCIOUS

One concept I came to learn about, or verify to put it more succinctly, was that of the superconscious mentioned in chapter 1. At the time, this was simply a budding theory of mine that I hadn’t fully explored yet. However this concept seems to have been confirmed in the reports of many near death experiences. Carrie Kohan is a famous NDEr who wrote a book about her NDE called the “The Five Lessons of Life”. In this book, she claims to have spoken to God as well as a council of spiritually advanced angelic beings. It was shown to her that our thoughts and desires actually project outward from us and can be picked up by both the conscious and subconscious minds of others. These thoughts then act like invitations that attract others into your life. Betty Eadie is another famous NDEr who claims to have spoken to Jesus and a council of higher beings in her death experience. Similarly it was explained to her that thoughts have the power to change reality. In fact I believe Eadie also mentioned that the collective thoughts of everyone on the planet actually has the power to change even the weather. As I continued to read and listen to the NDE accounts of others, I’ve noticed this message being repeated over and over again. However, as someone who has literally written two books on the subconscious mind, I would constantly interpret these messages in terms of my understanding of the subconscious. This lead me to conclude that they’re probably talking about the planetary subconscious field, which I call the superconscious, that I had theorized about.

          What’s interesting though is that this field appears to be much more powerful in its effect than I was giving it credit for. Furthermore I learned that that this planetary subconscious field grid does in fact create a manifestational effect that we’ve come to know as the law of attraction. This same phenomenon is also explained in many NDE experiences. There is a very in depth explanation for it Carrie Kohan’s book. This was also something I believed might be true as I’ve experienced it in my own life. However what made learning about these phenomena through NDE accounts so fascinating is that I was able to think about them from a much broader perspective than I had ever considered before. In a sense, it felt almost as if I was a 2 dimensional being gaining insight in to what it was like to live in a 3 dimensional world. I began to think about the far reaching effects and metaphysical consequences of a lot of the mechanics of the subconscious that I’ve come to think in terms of. It was fascinating that such ideas had never occurred to me before, yet they seemed to naturally be inspired within me after reading and listening to these experiences. I’d like to now share many of the conclusions I’ve come to believe in regarding the nature of manifestation as it relates to the superconscious. Among the most important of these consequences has to do with the nature of manifestation and our relationship with God. This is not a common connection normally made when discussing the law of attraction, however I believe it to be most fundamental aspect of the nature of manifestation. We will discuss this connection in the next chapter where we discuss the laws of metaphysics.

MANIFESTATION CHARGE

In order to discuss the nature of manifestation more formally, I think it’s best to first talk about a new kind of subconscious charge that we never fully went over yet. I have alluded to this charge briefly throughout the book but haven’t discussed it more directly since I wasn’t yet sure about the nature of manifestation. However we can now talk about this charge in a much more clear way. As a recap, recall that the superconscious is essentially a kind of metaphysical field that consists of the transcendental connections between all of our subconscious minds. This field is not static in nature but instead is dynamic in the sense that it is constantly changing with time. This is because the subconscious mind of each individual that makes up the field is also constantly changing with time. As your conscious mind continuously produces different intentions, the state of your subconscious is also continuously changing in response. Now because your subconscious mind is also connected to everyone else’s subconscious mind, you have the ability to weakly influence the subconscious mind of every other person on the planet. This is able to occur without you even being aware that it is happening on a conscious level. When multiple subconscious minds charge in a very particular way, there appears to be a kind of emergent intelligence that forms within the superconscious that causes it to compel these same individuals to interact with each other in a way that “matches” or “coincides” with their charge. This phenomenon is generally called the law of attraction.

          What is meant exactly by the terms “matches” and “coincides” can change somewhat depending on the nature of the charge. In some cases this simply means being compelled to interact with people or institutions that help to sustain some feeling or subconscious frequency that you’re used to charging. There isn’t actually some grand goal or event that the individual, or individuals involved, are all chasing. This is a rather passive and somewhat boring application of the law of attraction. The much more interesting case occurs when an individual is actually chasing some grand goal or event. In this case, the activity that goes on in the superconscious becomes much more interesting and has much more potential. It is in this special case that it really begins to transcend by inducing specific compulsions within yourself and others. These compulsions act to guide multiple people to all come together and interact in ways that are aligned with each person’s goals. A simple way of looking at it is to think of the superconscious as another tool to help you “manifest” the reality that your “goal based” intentions are constantly asserting that you want. When you have a habit of using intention to constantly express goals that are easy to achieve, and therefore are very short lived, you will likely not notice anything special going on that needs to be attributed to some kind of metaphysical manifestational force. Of course the superconscious is still there helping you to manifest this unchallenging reality even then. However when your intentions are constantly expressing goals that are more difficult to achieve and therefore are more long lasting and continuously repeating, the full power of the superconscious mind really starts to comes through.

          In this case, there is a type of cumulative effect that goes on in the superconscious that allows it to compel you for a prolonged period of time. This prolonged period of compulsion acts to guide you in creating the reality that your intentions are saying you want. This guidance often occurs in the form of inspirational thoughts which help you to come up with the overall vision and plan for how you’re going to accomplish the goal your intentions are expressing. This guidance can also occur in the form of compulsions that make you feel an urge to take certain real world actions. This includes going somewhere that just so happens to put you in the right place at the right time to take advantage of certain opportunities that you may not have come across otherwise. And what’s interesting about all of this is that it will occur on a subconscious level that you will likely not even be aware of consciously. At the very least, this power of manifestation does not require your conscious mind to be aware that it is happening. The superconscious is only responding to your subconscious mind which, in turn, is responding primarily to your conscious mind as far as the goals it expresses go. And this really gives us a hint as to how to properly charge your subconscious for the purpose of reality based manifestation. A simple emotion type charge, based solely on intensity, wouldn’t quite be the best approach for this purpose. Yet, at the same time, a pure transcendental performance type charge alone wouldn't quite be the best approach either. This is because performance based charges, at least as we’ve discussed them in chapter 13 of book I, are mainly based on performing some activity very well. Neither of these subconscious approaches are really quite a match for what we’re looking to do when it comes to manifestation. After thinking about this for a moment, I’ve come up with what I believe to be the best approach for charging the subconscious for the purpose of manifestation.

          I call this new type of charge a manifestation charge. This of course is because this charge doesn’t just make use of your own subconscious energy when it comes to achieving the conscious mind’s goals. Rather, it also uses the available energy in the superconscious mind as well. This is a special type of subconscious energy that results from the collection of all the individual subconscious energies that make up the superconscious. This superconscious energy is able to influence the subconscious minds of others and can better enable you to reach your goals through your interactions with them. There are other metaphysical implications of the effect of this energy as well but we’ll discuss those in more detail in the next chapter. To charge your subconscious for the purpose of reaching your goals with the help of the superconscious mind, you’ll need to do something that’s a little bit of a mix between an intensity type charge and a transcendental performance based charge. I actually already alluded to this technique a little bit in chapter 1 when I spoke about, what I believe to be, some of my initial experiences with the law of attraction. The first step is to charge your subconscious to express the belief that you will achieve some goal. I mentioned previously that I kept focusing on a goal of mine and kept charging the belief that I would absolutely reach this goal no matter what. I would often do this in the morning, using a morning charge, and then a few times throughout the day as well. I particularly liked to listen to motivational videos from Eric Thomas while doing so. That really helped to stimulate my subconscious to charge up at the determination, motivation and ambition frequencies.

          As I kept doing this, I could feel my subconscious charging the belief that I would accomplish my goal more and more intensely. In this sense, a manifestation charge reflects many of the properties of an intensity based charge, similar to emotions. However this alone is not enough to manifest your reality, at least not in an ideal sense. The next step involves planning and calculation. Once I had felt so insanely determined and certain that I would achieve my goals, I’d then constantly start trying to brainstorm how I would actually go about reaching it. I knew that my negative mind would be quite limited in its ability to think up a highly creative and complex plan for achieving some goal that was difficult to reach. So I would often try to enter a transcendental state first and then try from there to come up with some master plan regarding how I would reach my goal. As I kept doing this, my subconscious creativity, or intelligence, would charge and I’d eventually gain the ability to brainstorm ideas on a transcendental level. Eventually, even if it took days, I’d finally come up with a plan for how I was going to reach my goal. I would then actually take action toward reaching my goal and do so according to the plan I came up with during my transcendental brainstorming sessions. If needed, I would also charge my subconscious for transcendental performance if the plan required that I perform very well during some aspect of the plan. In this sense, a manifestation charge also reflects a transcendental performance charge as well.

          Now, even during this time of planning, calculating and taking action, I would still focus on my overall goal a few times throughout the day and take a few moments to simply assert to myself that I would absolutely accomplish this goal no matter what. During these times, I’d feel my subconscious charge belief very intensely again. Furthermore, as I accomplish some part of the plan or at least take action toward it, I’d once again focus on the whole plan overall and would once again try to transcendentally brainstorm better ways to reach the my goals through this plan. As I take more actions toward this plan and as more opportunities start to appear in my life, there’s essentially more information from a slight change in circumstances that makes it ideal to transcendentally brainstorm again. In many cases, I’ll be able to focus more directly on the most current part of the plan and transcendentally brainstorm better ways to reach the next part of the plan. In a sense, as the basic framework of the plan that I originally made starts to come into fruition, it also starts to become more specific. As it does, I can transcendentally brainstorm in a less general way and start doing so in a more specific way. I would then once again take action based on this new brainstorming and the cycle repeats itself. This in a nutshell is how you perform a manifestation charge. As you keep doing this day after day after day – engaging in this cyclic interplay between belief, planning and action – your subconscious ends up charging in a very special way. In particular this kind of charge causes the superconscious to begin compelling you and others to have certain thoughts and take certain actions that better enables everyone involved to reach their goals.

          This phenomenon causes you to start having ideas, meeting people and visiting locations that are all “aligned” with your goal based intentions. This of course is what is meant by the term manifestation. Eventually, as you keep performing this manifestation charge, you will eventually reach the goal you set out to achieve. As you watch your hopes and dreams begin to manifest into reality, it will essentially feel as though some magical force is actually helping you to reach your goal. You should get the sense that certain people, places and opportunities are coming into your life in a way that seems to go far beyond random chance. This is even true when measured against the obvious fact that the odds of you experiencing these kinds of events would naturally increase simply by virtue of you spending more of your time focused on your goals. The apparent magic you experience both in luck and in fortune would appear to go even beyond that probable inevitability. However there are two important caveats that should be acknowledged when it comes to understanding the nature of manifestation more deeply. The first is that this phenomenon is not absolute. In other words, it is not necessarily the case that every event, person or opportunity that appears in your life is doing so due to your manifestation charge. This is a property that I have heard others attribute to this phenomenon as well but I don’t actually believe this to be the case. The reason is that you, as well as everyone involved in your manifestation charge through the principle of alignment, have free will. This means that no matter how strong some compulsion is from your subconscious, even those boosted by the superconscious mind, you can still choose to resist it and do whatever it is you wish to do in that moment.

          Thus events, places and people that show up in your life while performing this charge are not necessarily guaranteed to do so solely as a matter of your manifestation charge. Now although not every single event that occurs in your life will have done so due to your manifestation charge, it will generally be true on average that many of the events that occur in your life will have done so as a result of your manifestation charge. In other words there will always be a strong correlation, and not absolute causation, between the events that occur in your life and your manifestation charge. Another important caveat to acknowledge about this charge is just how difficult it actually is to perform. Or, perhaps more accurately, just how much time, effort and attention this charge requires. One of the biggest misunderstandings, in my opinion, about the nature of manifestation is how to actually do it properly. Many people think that simply using your negative mind to dwell on a goal very often and for long periods of time will enable you to manifest your desires. That of course is not how it actually works in reality. Your subconscious experiences the phenomenon of subconscious entropy so it will actually start resisting the act of charging in relation to your goals if you simply focus on them in a non-subconsciously stimulating way. Furthermore, even when you do stimulate your subconscious properly and cause it to charge in relation to your goals, you’ve got to give a huge amount of your attention to this charge and do so for a relatively long period of time – however long it takes for you to reach your goal. Recall that your subconscious responds more powerfully whenever you give some subject more and more of your attention. Well in order to perform a manifestation charge more potently, you’ve got to give this charge more and more of your attention. And, even after this, you’ve got to keep your attention on your goals in this manner – so that your subconscious remains charged and manifestation can occur – until your goal is reached.

          This means that it will be hard during this time to charge other emotions for the purpose of pleasure or to charge for the purpose of transcendental performance in activities not related to your goals. This is why most people have so much trouble properly manifesting the reality that they wish to have. Performing a proper manifestation charge not only requires you to be constantly charged up in relation to your goals, both in belief and performance, but also requires you to do so for a relatively prolonged period of time – taking away from your ability to focus on other things. How long should you stay like this? Well that’s the thing, there’s really no rule to it. You will simply have to maintain a charge in this manner for how ever long it takes you to reach your goal. Some goals may require you maintain a manifestation charge for only a few weeks to a month. Others may require you to maintain it for years. How big the goal is relative to your current position will of course play a factor in how long it takes you to manifest the reality you want. Few people have the drive to maintain this kind of charge for a prolonged period of time in this manner. Most people would much rather relax and enjoy themselves in the short term time frame. But by doing so, they end up constantly killing their manifestation charge and disrupting the superconscious activity that would have helped them to form the reality they wish to have. This occurs because they’re giving so much more of their attention toward enjoyment as opposed to manifesting.

          Thus, by default, they’re manifesting a reality that sustains their current capability to enjoy themselves but not necessarily a reality that provides new ways to enjoy oneself. To manifest that, you’d have to perform a manifestation charge. Thus, in my opinion, a manifestation charge is actually one of the hardest charges to perform and requires the most discipline. But when done properly, it can also be the most powerful as it relates to changing reality around you. In fact it’s so powerful that it’s not really necessary for easy to reach goals, only the difficult ones. For easy goals, your conscious mind does not dedicate its attention toward achieving a goal for a prolonged period of time. As a result, much of the special energetic activities in the superconscious that we spoke about do not have enough time to fully develop. This is because the superconscious is responding primarily to the intensity of your subconscious charge. Short term goals rarely stay in your mind long enough for you to charge them very intensely. And if you're just charging your subconscious to experience emotion very intensely as you entertain yourself, then the superconscious will still help you to sustain that reality too but that extra help won't be very useful to you because the goal was already easy to begin with. The extra bit of magic you get from the superconscious that helps you to create the reality you want is really only necessary for big goals that require you to focus on them for a prolonged period of time.

MANIFESTATION SCALING AND QUANTUM REALITY SHIFTING

In this section, I’d like to focus on two important aspects of the phenomenon of manifestation that I believe are worth looking at in order to better understand it. The first is, I believe, quite integral in truly understanding the nature of manifestation from a metaphysical perspective. The second is much more theoretical in nature and simply offers a rather interesting way of thinking about manifestation. The first important aspect of manifestation we’ll be discussing is related to what you might think of as the “scale of manifestation”. This simply refers to, in a sense, how zoomed in or zoomed out we are in terms of looking at the effects of manifestation. Since manifestation always occurs with a single individual’s conscious and subconscious minds, the most local and zoomed in view of manifestation will always involve looking at its effect from the perspective of the single individual that is doing the manifesting. However, because manifestation can actually affect others through the influence of the superconscious mind, the most zoomed out and far reaching perspective involves looking at the effects of manifestation across the whole planet. There are of course different scales you can look at in between these two extremes such as those within a particular community, city or state. One could even focus on the effects of manifestation from the scale of a whole sociological institution, such as the entertainment industry or a single business venture involving a group of people who are transcendentally connected through their focus on the business. However, for our purposes here, I’d like to primarily focus for a moment on the two extreme cases.

          I like to refer to the perspective of manifestation from the view of a single individual as local manifestation and the perspective manifestation from the view of the whole planet as global manifestation. Looking at the effects of manifestation from both perspectives will give you a better understanding of its nature overall. This is similarly true in science where understanding the mechanics of the physical reality on extremely tiny scales, such as in quantum mechanics, and on extremely large scales, such as in astronomy, gives us much a better understanding of the nature of physics overall. So far we’ve been mostly talking about the nature of manifestation from the local perspective. In other words we’ve been talking about how reality appears to change, due to manifestation, from the perspective of a single individual. The nature of manifestation from this perspective is mostly as you might expect it to be. It is simply the appearance of various ideas, places, events and opportunities showing up in your life in a way that appears to go beyond random chance – again this will be true even when factoring in the fact that this would naturally appear to occur to some degree simply by virtue of the fact that you’re focusing on your goals more. The more interesting and perhaps less intuitive perspective involves global manifestation. This perspective looks at the way a single individual or a large group of people affect the superconscious mind and how they tend to cause reality to manifest on a much larger scale – up to and including the whole planet.

          I actually briefly mentioned this possibility in chapter 1 when discussing the law of attraction. I have since come to believe this idea much more strongly after listening to many near death experiences. In a simple sense, we can think of the act of manifesting as a cumulative phenomenon. This means that its power grows in strength more and more as more people are involved in it. Now most people are not collectively all focused on achieving the same goal and therefore are not all charging their subconscious in a way that adds to the strength of manifestation, relative to some particular goal, occurring in the superconscious. If anything, a single individual will usually be focused solely on goals that have to do with their own local reality. The strength of their ability to manifest reality within the superconscious is not very strong from a global perspective but it can still be strong from a local perspective. That individual can increase their power to manifest locally by performing the manifestation charge described earlier. However, even with this charge, it will be difficult for a single individual to manifest on a global scale. To accomplish that, you need more and more people to add their power of manifestation to a common goal. At first this may seem like a fairly rare phenomenon. But I believe it’s actually very common. It’s true that it might be fairly rare for a large number of people to properly perform a manifestation charge for the same goal. However, remember that the phenomenon of manifestation occurs within the superconscious regardless of whether you’re performing a proper manifestation charge or not.

          A manifestation charge, as I’ve described it earlier, is simply a technique to add more power to your ability manifest. However, the superconscious is always responding to your subconscious and is working to manifest reality on a local scale, relative to you, in a way that is aligned with the pattern of intention that you’re consistently producing. Thus it is possible for a large number of people to inadvertently produce intentions that add manifestational power to the formation of a particular reality. For example when hundreds of thousands to millions of people consistently produce intentions that charge a certain feeling while focused on a particular celebrity, this actually makes it easier for others to focus on that celebrity, or ones like them, and feel those same feelings. Put another way, these other individuals would receive a charging boost from the superconscious that allows them to charge some particular emotion faster than usual. Similarly when a large number of people are focused on a basic necessity, like making money, this adds huge power to the superconscious and causes reality to manifest on a global scale that sustains this feeling. Thus the more strongly a large group of people believe they need money to find happiness, the more likely reality is to manifest across the planet, or simply within the country those people are located, in a way that reflects that belief. This is important because it means that any institution that has the ability to direct the intentions of large numbers of people, also has the power to strongly influence the way reality manifest on very large scales. We will talk more about the implications of this in the next chapter when we talk about the laws of metaphysics. There we will focus on the nature of manifestation as it relates to spiritual energy.

          The next aspect of manifestation that I’d like to talk about is much more theoretical in nature and is not as integral in understanding the overall idea of manifestation in general, but it is still interesting to think about. This has to do with the way time works and the way in which reality gets created as a result of manifestation. An interesting question we can ask about the phenomenon of manifestation is whether or not it, in a sense, respects the arrow of time. By this I mean does reality get created in a kind of linear way that is constant with respect to the evolution of time. From a purely human perspective, all of reality seems to unfold in this chronologically linear way. However Einstein’s special theory of relativity tells us that time is not necessarily as fixed as it appears to be to us. Two events for example, that are said to be spacelike separated, can occur in different orders relative to different observers. Because there is no causality between these types of events, with respect to a certain period of time, there are no paradoxes created by this varying order of occurrences. Thus we see that time does not necessarily function in a completely linear way relative to some particular observer. Does a similar phenomenon occur with regard to the way reality appears to manifest to a single individual? Does reality manifest in a way that is not exactly how it chronologically appears to relative to us? I actually believe the answer yes.

          To understand this, let me first briefly talk about something I noticed years ago when I used to practice psychic abilities. Although I did not mention this in chapter 7, I often attempted to use psychic abilities for the purpose of precognition way back when I was still trying to figure out how they work. During this time, there were often moments where I felt as though I was retrieving psychic information about a possible future, rather than the actual future as observed by me over time. I believe reality manifests in a somewhat similar way. In a simple sense, I believe that the future is not necessarily fixed or constant with respect to the flow of time. This is because our conscious mind, which exercises free will, actually exists outside of time itself. Thus simply looking into the future won’t necessarily allow you to precisely see what choices a person makes and therefore how their reality unfolds. Instead the future actually exists as a state of infinite possibilities relative to each decision we make. And whenever we make a decision, that future state collapses and one of the possible futures, before we made our decision, becomes the present relative to our perception. From there, a new future state is created with a whole new set of infinite possible futures. And when you make another choice, this new future state collapses again, changing what we perceive as the present, and a new future state with another new set of possibilities is created and so on. In other words, the future is not actually a fixed blueprint for how reality will manifest through time as we know it. Rather, the future much more closely resembles how the wave function operates in quantum mechanics.

          The quantum mechanical wave function is a mathematical object that theoretically contains information about every possible state that a quantum object can exists in. Within this library of information is also information about the object’s observable values. This includes information for example about the object’s position, velocity, momentum and so on. Now you might think that an object’s observable values, such as its position, are always fixed and have a single value at any given time. But the study of quantum mechanics shows us that this is not exactly true. A quantum object for example experiences a phenomenon called superposition which is not experienced by larger objects that we can easily observe in the macroscopic world around us. Superposition is a principle that allows quantum objects to actually have multiple observable values at once. For example a quantum particle can actually exist in multiple locations at once simultaneously. Yet, as soon as we try to measure its position, the particle suddenly changes in a way that causes it to only have one position instead of several. But why did it have multiple positions before our measurement and only a single position after our measurement? This is a phenomenon that still confuses scientist till this day. The most accepted explanation is the Copenhagen interpretation which says that the wave function describing the state of the particle undergoes a phenomenon called “wave function collapse” the moment we measure the particle. This collapsing effect is why the particle now has a single value after measurement. However scientist still don’t know why measuring the particle should cause the wave function to collapse in this manner.

          Another interpretation of this phenomenon is called the many worlds interpretation. In this explanation, the wave function actually doesn’t collapse per se. Instead, the superposition experienced by the quantum particle actually represents many different worlds, or realities, in which the particle exists. When you finally measure the particle, you simply slip into one of those realities and therefore measure the value the particle had in that particular reality. Of course how and why this slipping into another reality effect occurs can neither be explained nor verified through objective observation. While I can’t be sure which model more accurately describes quantum systems, I believe that the many worlds interpretation actually quite accurately describes how reality manifests in time. The future actually exists in many possible states and it is our choices that cause these futures to manifest or come into observable existence. Now in quantum mechanics, the wave function is a mathematical object that is attributed to a single particle. It has no real casual relation to the rest of reality. However, in the many worlds interpretation, this singular and highly localized scope of the wave function is not allowed. Instead, we must accept that the observer performing the measurement of the particle is also a part of the wave function. Similarly I believe that the reality that manifests across the whole planet is contributed to by the decisions of every individual involved. Every choice each one of us makes brings a new possible reality into existence that is experienced by everyone on the planet. Thus all of our choices contribute to the new reality that forms.

          When we make positive choices, we help a positive reality to manifest both in our local reality and in the global reality. When we make negative choices, we cause a negative reality to manifest both on a local scale and on a global scale. Of course each choice we make is less significant in terms of its ability to influence the global reality that manifests compared to local one that manifests relative to us – but still, each decision everyone of us makes should still be considered important in the manifestation of the global reality. This concept of reality, as we experience it, shifting in a way that mimics quantum mechanics is one I like to call quantum reality shifting. This is not necessarily a new concept related to manifestation but it is one that seems to be gaining steam in online spiritual communities. Furthermore I’m not necessarily sure everyone who believes in this concept thinks of it in the exact same way that I do, but they will generally believe some close variation of it. If we accept this theory of quantum reality shifting, then an interesting question to ask is how we can know whether or not our decisions are contributing to a positive reality and are actually helping to cause that reality to manifest? After all, as discussed in chapter 7 of book I, our subconscious can tell us what behaviors are right or wrong in the context we give it but it can’t tell us whether or not those contexts properly describe reality. Perhaps our best bet is simply to engage in behaviors that our subconscious tells us is moral and hope for the best? Well that’s actually not a bad idea, but I believe we can do even better than that. The ultimate key to ensuring that our decisions create the best possible reality is our relationship with God. By establishing a dialogue with God and living within what we Christian's would call his Word, we're able to receive instruction and guidance from God and can always be assured then that our decisions are creating the best reality possible. We will talk more about this concept in the next chapter. However I should also now mention that I believe our connection to God is facilitated in a more metaphysical way through another part of your self that we will talk about shortly. This other aspect of what you are also helps you to make decisions that are aligned with God's will.
