What is real? How do I know any thing or any one outside of myself is real? How do I know any thing has any meaning? Perhaps "meaning" is only something that I must find inside of myself. Maybe there is no "meaning" outside of me. And if that is so, as it is that every thing is just an illusion, then does that mean I have the power to control? I have the power to make changes to the "illusion" surrounding me. Therefore, I can control the world.I am living the world through my own subjectiveness. I wonder if it is the same for each of us. Do you have the power to control your version of the "world" as well? Am I no more "real" to you than you are to me? I shall try an experiment. I will try to manifest a few things over the next month. Of course if nothing truly exists, even time itself, then I'll have no problem with imagining the following into "reality":
(Starting March 16, 2008)
A couple of dates
2,000 by doing things I enjoy
A bottle of my favorite perfume
Wonderful news that will make my parents happy
A new good friend with similar hobbies
I will post the results of these five things about a month from now. I am going by the theory that "every thing is just an illusion, and we have the power to choose the types of illusions we see". I've experimented with this idea in the past, and had some interesting results, but this is the first time I've sat down to chronicle it. I will spend a few minutes every day reminding myself that there is nothing we see in the world that doesn't come from inside of us first. Every thing in existence is merely an illusion that originates from within us. As above, so below, with nothing in between but our own barriers we put up out of fear and/or ignorance.
I'm a spiritual medium and Reiki Master. I love studying and writing about the metaphysical and occult. I have years of experience and feel that my journey still has a long way to go. I enjoy working with other people with similar interests. I also offer my services to others and oftentimes learn from them as well. I offer readings, training, magick, Reiki, etc... http://www.AvonleeStarkeeper.com
