Don't Try, But Experience - Edward Art (Neville Goddard Inspired)

so i want to speak about something that might sound a bit different but it's just the way i think about this what i've found over time of testing and just exploring in my imagination i found that it might not be the best thing to think in terms of manifesting so when i imagine i actually don't think about like i'm going to mana i'm doing this to manifest something i think that that takes away from the only thing that should matter which is one level called the feeling of the wish fulfilled and i think that when

you try to manifest stuff you're still so focused on the external world and the whole point is to leave it alone as novices and change the conceptions of yourself and conceptions are within us so we just change who we are within imagination and i found that when you remove the weight of trying to manifest and you make the goal of your imaginal act to be just to simply experience it because you are what you experience then i think a huge weight can be lifted off of you much resistance will leave you because i actually don't

think in that way i don't think about manifesting things i just think about experiencing i think about um i don't love the word becoming but in some sense i'm becoming who i want to be in imagination but the reason why i don't like the word becoming is because you already are that in imagination now we must uh you know be vulnerable enough to admit as if i'm speaking from the outer man's perspective this limited body that i can't do it the otter man can't do it the ottoman must surrender himself to the inner man it's

just an idea that you're creating your mind that you're limited and and you must admit that you're not capable you must be vulnerable enough to admit that you can't devise the means and you don't know the when and the how if you admit these things and surrender yourself that you don't really know anything the other man doesn't if you surrender yourself to the inner man then the inner man already is expressing what you want in imagination but i i this meant this body i don't know how to do it i'm not sure how to devise

the means i admit that i surrender myself and i just experience what the inner man's experiencing and i make that my goal so i don't try to manifest stuff i think that trying to manifest is in its own way a blockage um what i tried to do is the moment i close my eyes the external world leaves me that's how i think of it that none of it is true it was created by the imagination in some sense we do live in a world of imagination or in a say an imaginary world because the facts

that were created today were thought of yesterday and they can change tomorrow but it's difficult to feel the wish fulfilled when you're still focusing on trying to manifest and the reason for that is because the wish that is fulfilled is happening within you and you can't fully be immersed within if you're still focused on the external the best way i can explain is that i experience what the inner man's experiencing i take upon his experience and i become him and that's my goal not necessarily to manifest but to be to be the inner man who's

experiencing it that's the goal for me because i found that all i would be doing if i did have my desire fulfilled would be i would just be experiencing it i would just experience the fulfillment so neville calls it feeling the wish fulfill i just say experience the wish fulfilled experience your desire being fulfilled experience what the inner man's experiencing and make that the goal and you'll feel far less less resistance and you're you're creating the resistance anyways you can also look at it that way when you have resistance is because you are still identifying

with the external but i don't have to identify with the one within who already is experiencing it as uh as it was once said that the otter man will say it's impossible but the inner man says isn't it wonderful because the art is experiencing the fulfillment and that's a really good way of looking at i mean that's how i look at it i find that the unit that way that i'm the stateless being is the um much more relieving and natural way of assuming that you are what you want to be because if you know

that you're not the assumption itself but the assumer then i think your confidence goes up and you stop identifying with states and you stop identifying with its behaviors and you see that that's all stemming from a belief about yourself so you leave the world alone and you go within and you change who you are inside yourself and you can put a frame of reference in front of you and have someone reply to you telling you that you are now this person not they're not telling you to become it you already are it they're just reflecting

you so you don't you can't take anything from people inside your imagination because there's nothing for them to give it's only you in the end so people respond to you in imagination the moment you start to feel respectful people in imagination will start to treat you respectfully you start to expect that an expectation is inside you expect to think the best thoughts feel the feeling of expectancy but in imagination feel it expect to think highly of yourself and um i think it's important as i said that the ottoman must be vulnerable and that you must

be vulnerable enough to admit that you can't do it that you don't have the thing you want and that's why you need to assume you are the inner man who hasn't so you you don't you your goal is to become the inner man not necessarily to um go after material objects in the mind so you don't focus on as levels as the greatest pitfall is focusing on items and not the consciousness of being it and the consciousness you can just think of the inner man who has it you must become that inner man who's already

experiencing it and i think that is the way i have found the freedom that the really the truth the way is i am well what am i you know in imagination who am i claiming to be how am i being treated i'm i must be vulnerable enough to admit that maybe i don't see myself as highly as i want to see or maybe i don't feel about you know highly of myself i don't feel the way i want to feel about myself and imagination but then be bold enough to assume a new state in imagination

as neville says dare to assume and he says this and i wanted i wanted to share this in the last video but i didn't is that should you tomorrow or in the interval between now this night and you do it and the fulfillment of it should one little doubt enter your mind do this she says if you have a doubt after you feel the wish fulfilled do this he says just remember but i experienced it i experienced ownership so i don't care if at this very moment something denies it i experienced it so he equates

experience with wish fulfilled and that's where i change my mind and i wrote a series about this is that changed my mind and manifest and actually don't think in those terms it's all about experience for me is that i'm i am what i am because i'm experiencing my reflection so let me experience a new reflection within me not so that i can become it but that i already am at an imagination so i make the outer man less and less and i make the inner man more and more so that when i start to say

the word i i'm speaking as the inner man who all things are possible to i start to associate myself and identify with him within um that's about all i had to say but i hope that helps to remove the pressure from trying to manifest and shift it to experience or to being or to as long as feel the wish fulfilled make that the goal that's what's important and that requires a complete abandonment of your external world and complete fusion with your inner self and then once you realize how wonderful that feels you start to do

it more and more and you get used to i guess you could say living in imagination yeah so i hope that helps hope that relieves the uh the stress and the worry on on the mind that the goal is to experience while you imagine not to manifest because the world is expressing imagination anyways so i don't know if you have to work i don't think you have to worry about express expression it's more are you it's more about are you who you want to be within are you actually the person you want to be are

you actually feeling that you are who you want to be are you feeling that you're proud of yourself are you feeling ownership of the state that you want as novel says and you you know you have ownership by your experience of being it and imagination yeah so hope that helps
