Contrary to more popular notions of manifestation, I have looked into various theories of how the present reality comes into being. As far as I can see, the mechanism is not attraction or repulsion, but instead has to do with:
1. Consensus Reality
2. Sorting Multiverses
3. Locality of Consciousness
4. Navajo Sensibilities
1. Consensus Reality is what we tend to agree on by consensus. Regardless of any affirmations, consensus reality is the shared notion of reality. This notion of reality is not just one solid thing, but contains a variety of options, some more latent than others. (Example: Is light a wave or a particle? When we seek to prove it is a wave, we succeed. When we seek to prove it is a particle, we succeed. Both are latent potentialities except when we push them into existence through well-constructed experiments). The common term for latent and undesirable potentiality is "shadow."
2. Sorting Multiverses is what I perceive to be the job of consciousness. Quantum Physics tells us that there are manifold parallel universes that exist in the indeterminate state until they emerge into a determined state. So, the conscious Self sorts through these indeterminacies through choices in successive moments of now, and poops out a single strand of "reality." However, one of the conundrums is that individual "selves" perform the same operation and we still wind up with alternate realities which can then collide before resolving into a preferred reality. I look at this as staking claims on the landscape of consensus reality. (Did those Indians simply not see those ships? Or did those ships not exist?)
Locality of Consciousness is the term I use to describe the local field generated by the consensus reality of a particular group. (Those ships DIDN'T exist!) This phenomenon is similar to soap bubbles, which may collide and: 1. Glom together as one 2. Remain separate but attached with a clear border 3. Go out of existence. (When the consciousness of the Shaman reached out and contacted the consciousness bubble of the Spaniards, then the ships DID exist.)
(I wonder what will happen when the aliens make undeniable contact with us? Hmm. I think I will reach out and touch their consciousness bubble with my own. Darn! It seems there are a bunch of people creating War of the Worlds scenarios. Arrgh!)
4. The Navajo language is ultra-specific. It assumes quite a bit from context and speaking Navajo is an art form much like adding a thread of color to an existing tapestry. Navajos seem to operate closer to the reality field created by the Self and tend to find their consciousness less fragmented than say, sectarian Christians for example.
If you listen to Alison Armstrong on relationships, she says it is not a scarcity problem, but a sorting problem. I concur with regard to manifestation. If scarcity is one of the foundational notions, THAT is what will manifest. If plenty or sufficiency is foundational, then THAT is what will manifest. What are we sorting for?
It would seem that it would be in my best interest to cultivate win/win sorting patterns, as doing so would ensure the positive propagation of my "consensus reality bubble" whenever it intersects with another.
