"I was turned off where the author (Coue) suggested adding no specific desires to auto-suggestions because "the higher self" (God) knows what we NEED. (Then why not just give it to us?) But what about what we WANT? How does repeating "every day in every way, I am getting better and better" help to wrangle the imagination and focus it on specific desires?"

Dear Anonymous,
The words "every day in every way, I am getting better and better" mean absolutely nothing, except they are the language by which we understand and are encouraged to act. Repeating them reminds and encourages us to FEEL better. What good is being the operant power if we do not operant?
I am very sincere when I say that the theology is the technique. We are not trying to get God -- the higher self, our imagination, the sub-conscious -- to do anything. IT has an objective: to be manifest. There is only one God, the Ineffable, who is and has become everything. Everything is one, only one, including us, but with an objective we have not met, yet. We are the fulfillment of that objective in potential. GIVING us anything we want does absolutely NOTHING to meet that objective of our being the Creator. There is nothing outside that is going to give us squat, except that squat instill faith in us.
We shall meet that potential, but for the moment we are working on getting rid of the time expectation. We think it is something that is going to happen in the future. It is this moment, if we can but accept it. And like our being the operant power, the only way to accept it is to accept it.
The Creator, the Imagination of the Ineffable, became you. Not another you: you you. You ARE the Creator -- the screwed-up part that isn't being one hundred percent like the Ineffable (no offense meant). We are meant to have everything we desire, but nothing that we want. Read that sentence again. You are meant to HAVE everything you desire. You will receive NOTHING of what you want. Wanting says, "I do not have." That is what wanting manifests. If you HAVE, in your mental experience, what you desire, THAT is what will manifest.
Here is a short version of Gregg Braden explaining the idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Nu-nE1feRc. I prefer this slightly longer version, especially at about 4:40 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et-dn-Fzw0I. When we pray for something, we acknowledge that we do not have it. And THAT manifests. To create is to believe that you DO HAVE what you desire. To believe it is not a lie. Faith is the substance of the unseen thing. It exists because YOU JUST CREATED IT, and you are the Creator.
Believing, repeating what you desire, and feeling that you have it gives the subconscious something to manifest. You create the state for God, who is dreaming you, to experience, by imagining that it is your experience. It has not been your experience? That is why it is by FAITH -- imagination.
We were created by the Creator to be Its manifestation -- THE CREATOR. We were created to create. That is imaged physically in sexual reproduction. Move that illustrative image to the realities of mind and spirit. (Not the other way around: Pharaoh taking Abraham's Sarah results in idolatry and cursing, because the flesh inherits nothing of the spirit.) Imagining having the desires God gives our hearts impregnates our manifesting world with what we shall become.
Is any of this getting through, Anonymous?

Here is a complete aside, Anonymous:
I noticed an interesting book about fifteen or twenty years ago in a used book store. The Tower of Babel by Richard Wetherill. I looked through it and saw that it had nothing to do with the Tower of Babel, so I didn't get it. God has kept that book in the back - and sometimes front - of my mind for all these years. About five years ago I found it on books.google.com (https://www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&q=richard+wetherill). It is about "humanetics." What the heck is that? I still didn't read it. Besides, it is as repetitive as heck.
The book kept coming up, and to make a long story short (too late?), my world was falling apart, and so I finally read it.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Yes, that is a good point to consider. When praying "for" someone, we should imaging them having, not not having. Like Freedom when he was accosted by a panhandler in San Francisco, he saw the man fully employed and in need of nothing. He prayer for the man by imagining him whole. Feeling that wholeness doesn't hurt the imaginer, either. If we could all do the same for all . . .
Desire vs want, and need vs want. You can desire anything within the Golden Rule, needed or not. It is satisfaction of hunger; that is your "need." Trust God for all you need, and satisfy your hunger. Imagine that need satisfied, and praise and thank God for making you the Creator He is, that now you HAVE it. Remain faithful to what you now have in the substance of your faith, and do not doubt, but wait for its coming.

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your most recent post Anonymous the Creator.
I think it is one of your most clear blogs on the working of the law.
Why is this important?
A few years ago a palliative (hospice) care nurse Bronnie Ware wrote
a book titled, Top 5 Regrets of the Dying
The number one regret:
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
"This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made.
The other 4 can be found here:

Thank you so much,
