Mind control within the Matrix produces nothing except more illusion and delusion when the real goal is to be free of the Monkey-mind that believes that stuff in the first place. Consciousness is the requirement for any real Spiritual advancement and the Way to it has been clearly established throughout history, thus, old school remains the only way for those who expect to make miracles happen.

We cannot purge our mind of all negative thoughts, and to attempt to monitor every thought and change it would be exhausting and prevent one from doing anything else. The Law of Attraction does work–whether we believe in it or not, whether we attract “good” or “bad” into our lives, it does work. Just as we can learn from other universal laws and achieve the seemingly impossible, so we can by studying and practicing Law of Attraction techniques. Throughout most of history we were told that man could not fly. When the law of gravity was “discovered” many learned individuals used it as proof that we could not fly. It was because people decided to believe in the possibility of something that they were able to make it so. We do not need to monitor every thought. We do need to focus our attention on what we want to achieve and receive into our lives–and yes, there may be actions that we need to take as well. The Law of Attraction is hardly passive. Flight did not happen only with thought; flight happened because of inspired action that was in alignment with the thought.

This post hits the nail on the head! 🙂 It is true that it is very difficult not to say impossible to control all our thoughts.. These kinds of new age gurus are sitting on a grey area in which is very hard to argue with them.. To me, to have good feelings with regards to your thoughts is the key to achieve or become in whatever someone wants to.. Do you agree with me?

All the best

From my point of view, the “New Age” movement became a dogmatic & misguided control/belief system that became quite distorted. Unfortunately, it gave “real love” a bad rap…The Dalai Lama says it best when he refers to “Lovingkindness”…Yes, awareness is crucial…

You talk about power and choice, but you don’t talk about goodness and righteousness. I’m convinced it’s because the latter in each case are not in you, and you cannot comprehend them. Yes, the New Age Hustle, as I call it, is a joke. But you have not offered a proper alternative.

You need a plus and a minus to make it work.

Darwin was a tool, and you can’t have the ‘good’ without the ‘bad’. That doesn’t reek of duality, it is duality. This is what we’re dealing with on our beautiful planet. Trying to transcend duality in our present circumstances is a fool’s errand in my opinion.

Think your trillion thoughts, discard and choose. But, mind you, not all your thoughts are your own.

Like? – Don’t like?

In fact, individuality (which is basically another word for freedom) is protected only when the possibility of negativity is assured.

Not that there is anything wrong with associating in groups–as long as the “negative” right to contract out exists. The international order reveals its collectivist conspiratorial pedigree by the consistency and relentlessness of its attacks upon this precious right
