Note to Tom T. Regarding I Remember When

Note to Tom T. Regarding Imagining:

You asked whether to write and read your It Works list as ‘to be’ or ‘I am’ statements. ‘To be’ implies to your subconscious mind that you believe you are not, but to be is useful in determining what you want to be.

‘I am’ as a thought, though, is a little harder to pin down. A good way to approach it is to use the “I remember when” technique Neville lectured on. If what you desire was true, IS true to you, you would remember this present state FROM that state. So you so encase yourself in your desired state that you remember the present as a distant recollection. Automatically, you must be in an I am frame of mind, feeling and experiencing that state as true, real, and present. If you can imagine that reality so clearly that you remember the present as past as you fall asleep, so much the better.

Caveat: Neville sometimes entered states so fully he was threatened with being stuck there. He was able to remember that the way he got there was also the way back, but on occasion he had to revive his as-dead physical body by shear determination. This is one reason the mystics have hesitated for centuries to promulgate this stuff — the world isn’t ready to fantasize themselves into states without guidance. And apparently they didn’t want the encumbrance of guiding. That was the church’s job, and they haven’t recognized it. Uh, we. Oh, ****.
