A lot of people think of manifestation as a new age spiritual concept. In fact some even compare it to the work of the devil; inherently anti-spiritual and anti-Christian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The truth couldn\u2019t be, well, further from the truth! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In fact, manifestation traces its roots all the way back to Tantra. You can even see pieces of it in Hermetics. In Tantra and Hermetics, the two oldest spiritual sciences in the world, they knew that in order to be deeply profoundly spiritual, you also needed to be rooted in the 3D realm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Being of service to source\/universe\/divine isn\u2019t very helpful if you don\u2019t have a roof over your head or know where your next meal is coming from!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ancient Chinese Buddhist texts talk about the absolute necessity of obtaining as much clothing, bedding, silver, and gold as possible – so that you can support anyone who comes across your path. In the Bible, Corinthians 9:8 states \u201cAnd God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You see, learning to live in abundance is one of the most spiritual things you can do. It provides us the ability to give, to serve, and to lead from a full cup – which is exactly how it was always meant to be. Every ancient major religion has spoken in some facet about the importance of abundance as a means of living out the will of God\/Source\/Universe\/Spirit. Abundance and prosperity are even covered in the world\u2019s oldest card game: The Tarot (mastery of the material realm and it\u2019s related prosperity is the main focus of the entire suit of Pentacles – \u00bc of the deck, AND more than 1\/3rd of the Major Arcana cards). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because of this, all major spiritual texts also give us hidden gems on how exactly to manifest. This is not new age technology but in fact as old as religion itself. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Having spent 16 years learning the \u201cNew Age\u201d flavour of manifestation, and the last 5 years diving deep into the esoteric, the religious, the Buddhist, the somatic – I can tell you that Tantra has provided us the most effective and efficient means of manifestation presently available to us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Tantra is the spiritual science of energy, and inherent within tantric teachings are the premises of embodiment, divine masculine, and divine feminine: weaving the differing energies together to bring about balanced and sustainable prosperity<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Whereas most modern teachings focus primarily on mindset and receiving (which, if you\u2019ve read my last blog post you know is a sure fire way to fail), Tantra gives us the full monty: it teaches us the feminine emotional component, the masculine decision component, and the importance of embodiment and surrender all in one key lineage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While I don\u2019t consider myself a Tantra teacher, I do utilize many tantric teachings in my work; and the way Tantra relates to manifestation is not only the most effective from what I have personally experienced with myself and thousands of clients; it is also seen \u201cundercover\u201d in several modern teachers – including Dr. Joe Dispenza\u2019s work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Because of it\u2019s efficacy and speed (because I mean, who isn\u2019t here for a little time bending quantum leaps?) it is this exact practice that I teach to my students, and that we will be sharing in person during the workshop components of the Desire Resolution Retreat.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s a breakdown of exactly why Tantra is unique in the manifestation world: <\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s it! The easiest 1-2-3 of manifestation; straight from the books of Tantra, and by far the most effective (and enjoyable) means of manifesting. No more scripting, no more belief programing – let your pleasure and desire take care of literally everything that is in the way and allow yourself to live a life full of pleasure that actually brings you everything you\u2019ve ever desired! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
