The Art of Successful Prayer

How to Avail Yourself of the State Akin to Sleep

"Prayer is the art of yielding to the wish and not the forcing of the wish. Whenever your feeling is in conflict with your wish, feeling will be the victor. The dominant feeling invariably expresses itself. Prayer must be without effort. In attempting to fix an attitude of mind which is denied by the senses, effort is fatal.

You should awaken within you the feeling that you are and have that which heretofore you desired to be and possess. This is easily done by contemplating the joy that would be yours were your objective an accomplished fact, so that you live and move and have your being in the feeling that your wish is realized."

I. Intro.

In this post, I will guide you through the procedure of using the state akin to sleep to retrieve the feeling of the wish fulfilled. The state akin to sleep is a state of relaxation and receptivity akin to the feeling attained just before falling asleep in which you are able to shut out the limitations of the objective world and obtain reality of the subjective state. The drowsiness of this state facilitates the procedure of persuading yourself to believe that you are that which you desire to be because minimal effort is required to direct your attention towards the wish fulfilled. If you feel the wish fulfilled, you will live in the end and if you live in the end, your assumptions will harden into fact.

II. How to do it:

"If your world would change, determine what it would look like; then construct a scene which would imply you are there. If your mental construction comes close to your fulfilled desire, your little daydream will become a fact!" / "If the suggestion is given with conviction and confidently accepted by the operator as true, then you have the ideal setting for a successful prayer." - Brazen Impudence / Prayer, The Art of Believing Ch. 4

The first step is to define your objective. Have a clear idea of what it is you would like to be (or be in possession of).

Next, ask yourself, “what does the end of that goal look like?” For example, if you would like to manifest a prestigious job opportunity, you’d be congratulated on it. If you’d like to manifest a change in appearance, you would receive compliments (It doesn’t need to include another person, but you may find it more helpful in order to feel it more real). Whatever the end looks like, it must always be an event that implies its fulfillment, that it is done. This is the wish fulfilled (more on that later).

Get into a comfortable position. You can lay down or sit upright, it doesn’t matter, do whatever feels most comfortable.

Relax. You can do some breathing exercises, listen to music, have a warm drink, whatever it is that makes you relax. 

Induce a moderate degree of drowsiness where you can still concentrate on the wish fulfilled, but be sure to not feel too drowsy where you find it difficult to focus. When you feel like you could move but you don’t want to (because you’re too comfortable), that’s when you’ll know you’re in the state akin to sleep.

Construct a scene that implies the fulfillment of your desire by making elsewhere here and then now, then feel it real by incorporating your senses into it and imagine yourself being present within your imaginal scene from your perspective. Confine your scene to a single action. If your scene implies that you have received wonderful news, do not wander off in your visualization by doing a thousand irrelevant things afterwards, simply stick to the congratulations and mentally feel yourself being present in your scene. Repeat the scene until it takes on the tones of reality. [A tip from Edward Art: Focus on feeling it real (feeling the wish fulfilled) first and then the sensory aspects of your scene will follow]

If you do this right and you’re able to shut out your senses and concentrate on that single sensation of fulfillment. You will actually feel as though it is all actually happening at this very moment, as if you are there presently. When you choose to exit the imaginal scene, you will quite literally feel surprised at the fact that you are back in the comfort of your home and not where you were a minute ago.

"As soon as man assumes the feeling of his wish fulfilled, his fourth-dimensional self finds ways for the attainment of this end, discovers methods for its realization" - Remain Faithful to Your Idea

III. The lullaby method

"If you cannot concentrate on an act, if you cannot snuggle into your chair and believe the chair is elsewhere, just as though elsewhere were here, then do this: Reduce the idea, condense it to a single, simple phrase. Whatever the phrase is, let it imply that the assumption is true, that it is concrete, that it is already a fact and you know it." - Assumptions Harden Into Fact

If you find it difficult to focus on a scene and feel it real or if you simply cannot conceptualize what the end would even look like, follow steps 1 through 4 and do the following:

Condense the fulfillment to three words or less and repeat them over and over again until your mind is dominated by the single sensation of thankfulness. Meditate on this phrase until you accept it as a fact.

Something that helped me understand the lullaby method was the following analogy: Think of a moment where you were repeating a word to yourself over and over again until it no longer sounded like a real word. The lullaby method is almost like that except in the opposite direction. Instead of repeating your three words until they don’t make sense, you repeat them until you are consumed by the acceptance of them, as if they do make sense. 

Examples of three words that imply the end:

I made it, I passed, I got accepted, I found it, they said yes, I won, I am (beautiful, healed, employed, successful), thank you, it is done, it’s finished, isn’t it wonderful?, I AM

IV. Revision

If your goal is to revise an incident, you do the exact same process:

Construct a scene that would suggest the preferable outcome. If you dropped your phone and broke your screen, imagine that you caught it instead. If you received undesirable news, imagine what you would have preferred to hear instead. 

Again, if you cannot conceptualize a scene of the ideal, pick three words that confirm the end. For lullaby, you can stick to “It never happened”

It could take some practice or maybe you’ll succeed at feeling it real on the first attempt. There comes a point where after visualizing or repeating those three words long enough that it’ll simply feel real. When you step out of that state you will feel surprised to realize that you’re no longer where your scene implied that you were. The vividness of your scene will feel as a real occurrence to you. Whenever I do the lullaby method and step out of that state I am filled with a sense of relief, as if my prayer has been answered. That’s how you’re supposed to feel after inducing the SATS rather than “hoping” that what you just did is enough.

Although you can induce the SATS at any time of day, if you choose to do it before bed (which is an excellent idea and I’m about to explain why), you can take that feeling of the wish fulfilled and fall asleep in that state. Always fall asleep with that satisfaction clouding your consciousness. Your prayer has been answered and there’s nothing left for you to do (but you can turn to the SATS whenever you need a reminder of the wish fulfilled).

V. Wish fulfilled briefly explained.

“When I speak of feeling I do not mean emotion, but acceptance of the fact that the desire is fulfilled. Feeling grateful, fulfilled, or thankful, it is easy to say, "Thank You," "Isn't it wonderful!" or "It is finished." When you get into the state of thankfulness, you can either awaken knowing it is done, or fall asleep in the feeling of the wish fulfilled.”

I remind you to proceed with this state not with the intention of doing in order to receive but rather to acquire the feeling of the wish fulfilled. Much like a prayer, think about it through the word "wish". Imagine what it would be like to ask for a wish and know that it's been granted, or asking for something and knowing you will receive it. How would you feel?

"The only condition required is that you believe that your prayers are already realized." - Feeling is the Secret Ch. 3

VI. How to you know if you’re in the state akin to sleep.

You’ll know you’re successfully induced this state where you’re still capable of moving but you don’t want to. You know when you rest your head on your arm or hand and you’re so comfortable that you don’t even want to move? That’s the state. It's like when you're so exhausted you throw yourself onto your bed and do not want to move because you immediately get comfortable, that’s how you should feel.

You’ll also know when you’re able to still guide the direction of your thoughts, if you’re too drowsy to the point where you’re slurring your words or cannot stick to your scene you've gone a little too far. You want to be able to focus and control your attention with as little effort as possible.

Symptoms may vary from person to person but here are the ones I personally feel that confirm I’m in the SATS:

My body feels slightly numb and will mildly twitch

My breathing is slow and short, my chest doesn’t rise much.

I am aware of the silhouette of my body but I cannot feel where my limbs touch.

VII. Misconceptions.

You do not need to physically impair the body.

You do not need to do this at night before bed.

The lullaby method is not affirming until you fall asleep.

Visualizing during the SATS is not a daydream, you are literally harvesting your future by assuming what the end looks like and then feeling the wish fulfilled.

You can induce sats at any time of day.  Neville himself recommended inducing it at a specific hour every day and soon enough you would automatically begin to feel drowsy at that same hour every day.

It is preferable to visualize in first person rather than in third person as if you are watching a scene unfold because you are meant to feel the scene as real as possible, as if you are actually there at this very moment. 

The affirmations are ideally condensed to three words or less so you can focus on them easier. I had personally found this to be much easier for me to remain focused when it’s only three words and not longer because I eventually start slurring my words.

How I personally induce the SATS:

I prefer to do it sometime between 18:00-21:00 when I have no intention of sleeping

I make myself a cup of tea (lavender or chamomile) so I feel relaxed.

If I struggle to focus I'll do a small ten minute guided meditation beforehand.

I then turn on brown noise or theta waves on noise canceling headphones.

I repeat to myself, “I am relaxed” “I am sleepy” until I start feeling drowsy.

VII. Final words.

I strongly advise you to approach the SATS not as a method but as a way to feel that your prayer has been answered. Do not induce the state in hopes of trying to “be” something because you can’t become what you already are. Utilizing your imagination during the SATS can be such a fulfilling and rewarding practice that I would encourage you to partake in it purely for enjoyment even when you are not specifically seeking the wish fulfilled. Remember to have fun with the SATS and let your imagination run free. ʚ♡ɞ

"Your prayer must be answered if you assume the feeling that would be yours were you already in possession of your objective. To pray successfully then, you must yield to the wish, that is, feel the wish fulfilled." - Feeling is the Secret Ch. 3

Happy New Years, beloveds!

With the new year upon us, I want to gently remind everyone that time does not matter when it comes to the law. You run on your own, dont get caught up in the illusion of time.

[goddardsgirl]

hihihi

I have a question,I have multiple desires,and they’re quite specific,so I’ve created a list of them.How do I manifest them all at the same time?I thought the only way to do that efficiently was through void state,but after much consideration and endless desperation (3+ years mind u)I’ve decided to let it go.So,what do I do?Do I just accept that I have them all orrrr

Desperation comes from an outer world mindset. What I mean by this is youre focused on seeing it in the 3d, rather than the acceptance that you already have these things (per your last line, yes! Exactly that!).

This creates an endless loop of outer world vs inner world meanwhile they're the same thing. Its not gonna "appear" in the outer world until it's accepted in your inner one. The 3d is a projection of your inner mind. If youre only hoping for something for something to show (project) then it's not accepted. With acceptance comes fulfillment, with hope comes desperation.

To touch on your void mention.. no, thats not the only means of manifesting, and it's also not the only means of manifesting more than one thing at once. I do admittedly caution that you focus on one or two things at a time, to really focus on your acceptance of said things, as opposed to splitting your focus on a bunch of things at once. Though, this is just a personal thing.

Also, youre fine to dm me, but I was admittedly put a little off by it at first. Only because when i saw the notification and assumed it was someone just really desperate for my attention, which doesn't seem to be the case here?

Your dm however does read as if you believe your list is relevant to that question, which implies you have a mindset of big vs small desires. I do want to note, in case this is the case, that no desire is easier or harder to achieve. Theyre all on the same level of acceptance = manifestation. Its just as easy to manifest seeing a blue butterfly in the middle of spring as it is to manifest the ability to use magic like Harry Potter.

So to end this rant, you can manifest them all at once by, just as you said, acceptance. Inner acceptance, at that.

It has come to my attention that many of you may be relying on accounts such as mine for your law of assumption research/consumption.

Let me be very clear: my posts, nor anyone else's, should be taken as 100% reliable, and they certainly shouldn't be taken as the only right way to do something. What i do is simply try to explain the law in a more modern sense, using more modern analogies to get my point across. But at the end of the day, I, and many others, are still learning.

You do not need Tumblr posts to teach you the law. This is not a religion, there are no pastors (or otherwise "correct" teachers). If you begin to feel as though you are relying on posts to teach you, I HIGHLY HIGHLY encourage you to utilize the above post and get your lessons straight from the source. If you have trouble understanding his older English, you can check here for Edward Art on Reddit, as he provides the same principles within a modern English scope.

Hey, I hope you're doing well.

So, I'm in a bit of a complicated situation right now, and I wanna ask a simple question, which is how to get myself to believe in manifestation and success stories of the people that I hear about and see, I know this might sound ridiculous to you, because this question may sound too simplistic, but the thing is, and the thing is that in my situation is, I've been known about manifestation for, like, six years now. I've jumped from law of attraction to subliminals, then law of assumption, then, like, non-dualism, which I don't enjoy, if I have to be quite honest, and I wanted to ask how do I get myself to believe in manifestation? Because I know people be, like, try to manifest something small or whatever, but I fixate on it so much that it doesn't happen and it crushes me and reaffirms the doubts around manifestations in my mind cause how couldn’t i manifest a free cup of coffee but somehow i am told that the sky is the limit and i can have anything i want , and eventually I came to the realization that I don't believe in manifesting at all, because if I believed in manifesting, I would have pursued manifestation. I don't believe in it, that's why I still live life in the old way, or still have, like, I still function with the ways that society trained me from logic, I'm a very logical person, I have to say, this is why I think believing in manifestation is quite hard. That's why I'm asking you, I just want to know what can help me at this stage. I feel like I have been in a very tough cycle, which is, my life gets really horrible, I say to myself, I will learn how to manifest, or I will believe in manifestation, and then I try to go to it, and then I feel like suffocation, and I feel like I don't believe in it. also I have something which is that I link my manifestation journey and manifestation in general with a very traumatic period in my life, and a very depressing period in my life, which is probably why I feel like just forgetting the idea that manifestation exists is kind of peaceful, but also I am not enjoying how my life is, that's why I want to learn how to believe in manifestation and make my life good.

Honestly, the law of assumption is logical to me. I want something, I get something, is how I look at it.

If you're saying, that because of the law, you view your traumatic experiences as your own fault.. well, theyre not. You weren't aware (conscious) of the law, you weren't actively manifesting said bad experiences, which means they're not your fault. How could something you weren't even aware of be your fault? It can't.

To be very honest, I dont know how I got past the feeling of lying to myself when thinking/speaking of the law. I just kinda realized one day that the feeling was gone, and with that feeling gone, it became easier for me to be successful in it. Because of this, I dont feel very comfortable giving you any more advice than this, because I cannot speak from experience.

My small bit of advice would be to stop focusing on what you consider to be logical. Everything you feel is logical in the 3d world limits you, as it puts conditions on your dreams, which don't have any. What I mean by this, is that you cant manifest a free cup of coffee because the 3d world tells you nothing is free, which you view as logical. If you get rid of the ideas that the outer world teaches you, your dreams will be limitless.

Im sorry I can't give anything more than this, I dont feel very knowledgeable about your situation, as I've never experienced it myself. I hope you can at least a little bit from this.

[goddardsgirl]

Here's your reminder that anything is possible, everything is easy to achieve, and you're the only one who gets to decide what happens in your life.

So anyway, go live your best life, baby!

The concept of a routine challenge has the potential to become what shifting tiktok did in 2020... "do this to get this" which spiraled into people believing you NEEDED to do certain things to get the result they wanted. Per the shifting tiktok reference, there were people believing you NEEDED to clean your room, meditate, sleep in a specific position, drink water, etc.. Just to shift. Personally, I agree with Hera, that a routine challenge would do way more harm than good. - 🍯

Precisely this 🫤 There are zero obligations as far as the practice of this goes. There’s only want. Doing what you WANT, not what you HAVE to do. I wouldn’t want any of you to believe that the reason you(r life) didn’t change is because you didn’t follow some steps to a T. The law of assumption is supposed to be LIBERATING.

[sexydreamgirl]

I understand that discovering the law of assumption can be something so new and exciting that people find it hard to believe that they can manifest anything after living a life of limitations and being told that hard work is the only way to get what you want out of life but when we say you can manifest anything that means YES, you CAN manifest ANYTHING. I don't care if you want to manifest a completely new appearance and it includes 12 ft. long angel wings and heart shaped pupils. I don’t care if you want to manifest every single piece of clothing saved in your Pinterest boards including one of a kind vintage accessories. I don't care if you want to manifest a degree without going to school. I don't care if you want to shift to the Shrek swamp and be a puddle of dirt. I don't care if you want to manifest money out of thin air. I don't care if you want to manifest the sky to be a different color. I literally do. not. care. what it is you want to manifest. The answer is always YES.

[goddardsgirl]

To add my own thoughts to this: all manifestations are EQUAL. There is no such thing as a "big" manifestation, there is no such thing as a "small" one. Shifting to be Harry's wand in Harry Potter is just as possible, and just as easy, as something like manifesting seeing a blue butterfly in the middle of spring. Manifesting the ability to fly is just as possible, and just as easy, as manifesting your cat coming to lay with you. Nothing is off limits, just as nothing is more or less possible than anything else.

[sexydreamgirl]

i’ve read the dream of love, but the one thing i don’t understand is: do you have to sustain the state or just return to it as often as possible?

I don’t expect you to be 24/7 persisting in what you want (in the sense of constantly remembering and accepting, I mean). There’s a skewed definition of persistence that circulates a lot that essentially paints it as, “return to it, think about it, ~saturate~ your mind (I hate this phrase lol)”. Persistence isn’t like studying in intervals where you have to revisit it so information sticks. Your desires aren’t exams to prepare for.

Persistence, in its simplest essence, is giving yourself permission to ACCEPT it, to continue feeling (accepting) what you want to feel and without letting yourself be shaken by contradictions. You persist because it feels good, you persist because it makes you feel happy and because it feels better than the opposite. You become so fascinated by what you’re persisting in that whatever contradicts it doesn’t move you. It becomes an effortless proclivity to accept it when you’re persistent in exactly what you want because you want to, not because you have to or else you’ll never manifest it. Accepting out of sincere intention will always be an infinitely more enriching experience than accepting out of pure obligation.

So, to answer your question, it’s not about returning to it as many times as possible. You’ll find yourself inclined to doing that without an alarm on your phone telling you it’s time to return to it because persisting will be something you WANT to do supposing you are imagining and accepting exactly what you want.

how people who have a living hell of a life and they manifesting they desired happy life go through the hardest and most difficult lifes? i'm not strong enough for this, should i just take the pain and know i have my desires in my imagination

It sounds like you're separating the 3D from the 4D (reality vs imagination), but they're the same thing! The outer world is a reflection of the inner. If you had your desires in your imagination, then you would have them in the outer world. Because they are the same thing.

As for 'just taking the pain', never push down your emotions. For any reason. Let yourself feel them, they are not hindering your ability to manifest.

[goddardsgirl]

i need my desired appearance overnight please help me i'm scared as hell to go to people looking like a fat rat i think i'm going to kms

Live in the state of mind with your desire!

Also, you're not a fat rat, and please don't do that. You're gorgeous, I know it, it's time you know it.

[goddardsgirl]

if i affirm "my desires always manifest overnight" and truly and deeply believe in that, know they always manifest overnight will it work? if i assume?

If you assume it happens that way then it does. Simple. Live in the state of mind with your desire.

[goddardsgirl]

I'm afraid to manifest because some people say their lives got even worse during the manifestation,and my life is already hell😭

What you assume manifests, so how could you assuming your life is perfect create the very opposite??
