Forget everything and i mean EVERYTHING. WHATEVER THERE IS
and im being completely serious just temporarily set everything aside. just for a moment. im not asking you to disrespect any of these things or decide they're wrong. im asking you to temporarily create space ( to clear the clutter ) and to get quiet enough that you can actually hear yourself think.
set aside every theory you've ever read about how reality works , every single thing you've learned abt shifting or manifesting , every explanation of consciousness and awarnesss you've consumed. law of assumption. non-dualism. quantum physics multiverse theory. spiritual teachings. religious doctrines. scientific facts. philosophical frameworks. overall every single this is how existence works statement you've ever encountered. set aside every success story that made you think so THAT'S the secret and every failure that made you think that you're doing something wrong or svery piece of advice from every blogger , teacher , scientist or random person on the internet who claimed they had the answers. including me even , the shifting community by the way. set aside what you learned in school , family and from society.
we spend our entire lives absorbing other people's interpretations of existence no ? we learn how reality works from external sources. we adopt belief systems that were handed to us. we try to understand consciousness through frameworks other people made up.. we attempt to shift realities using methods based on someone else's understanding of how reality operates. and yes in the shifting community especially , we're constantly consuming OTHERS shifting guides , advice , methods and success stories. These ARE helpful. they can inspire us and give us starting points , show us what's possible.
but maybe , just once can we can pause the constant consumption and ask these questions to ourselves ? actually check in with our own inner knowing ? because we rarely.. if ever stop and ask ourselves what WE actually think about all of this.
so once you've created that mental space , set aside your own past conclusions ( both the hopeful ones and the limiting ones ) you're sitting in that quiet clarity , i want you to do something that might feel strange at first but likeeee
ask yourself questions. real questions. deep questions. and then actually wait for YOUR answers ( not the answers you've read, not what seems logical or philosophical based on what you've been taught ) but what genuinely feels true to YOU when you listen to that deep , quiet knowing inside you.
grab a notebook or open your notes app and sit with these >>
what is existence , to you ? not the definition from a dictionary or a philosophy textbook but when you really feel into it , what does existence mean ? what does it feel like ? how would you describe this experience of being in your own words?
what is reality , actually ? strip away everything you've been told. what do you believe reality is ? is it solid and fixed ? fluid and changeable ? a projection ? a dream ? layers of possibilities ? something you can't even put words to ? what feels TRUE when you go deep ?
how do things come into existence ? when something appears in your reality ( an object , an experience , a person , a moment. how did it get there ? what's your gut feeling about how things materialize or manifest or become real ?
what are you , really ? beyond your name , your body , your personality , your memories.. what is the you that's aware of all of that ? are you contained in your body ? are you something limitless ? are you pure consciousness ? are you everything and nothing simultaneously ? what does your inner knowing tell you ?
what is consciousness ? not the neuroscience explanation or the spiritual teaching but what do YOU perceive consciousness to be ? is it personal or universal ? Limited or infinite ? singular or multiple ? what feels accurate to your direct experience ?
how does reality shift or change ? you've seen your reality change countless times throughout your life. circumstances shift. situations transform. your entire life looks different than it did five years ago. how does that happen ? what's the mechanism , according to your deepest intuition ?
what is time , really ? does it truly work the way you've been taught linear , fixed , flowing in one direction ? or does some part of you suspect it's more flexible , more illusory , more malleable than that ?
what's actually possible ? when you tune out all the voices telling you what you can and can't do , what you should and shouldn't believe.. what does YOUR inner knowing tell you is actually possible ?
we know because something works for someone else doesn't mean their interpretation is THE truth.. it means it's THEIR truth and it is the understanding that resonates with their consciousness , so it becomes functional for them and you might operate differently and your inner knowing might have a completely different understanding and yk that's not wrong ( it's just YOURS baxicslly )
when you shift ( or manifest or exist ) from YOUR OWN understanding of how reality works.. it feels natural. obvious. easy. like you're finally working WITH yourself instead of against yourself.
this applies to everything , by the way. not just shifting. how you approach life. how you handle challenges. how you create change. how you understand your own existence and al of it becomes clearer when you're operating from YOUR truth
so just sit with those questions. actually write down your answers. let them come from that deep place inside you that just KNOWS things ( not from your logical mind trying to piece together what you've read but from your direct , intuitive sense of truth ) and obvie your answers might align with existing theories or they might be completely unique or mix. doesn't matter. what matters is that they're authentically YOURS.
and then.. this is the important part take that understanding and let it inform how you approach shifting , manifestation or anything else you're trying to do.
if you discover you believe you were once a god , bored , who created this entire universe and existence just to experience it ? then that's valid. since you're the god , you can do anything instantly because you made all the rules in the first place.
if you discover you believe god accidentally left the reality editor open and you just need to click save as ? then your method is literally just ctrl+shift+S your way into your dr
if you discover you believe you're literally just a brain in a jar having the worst trip of your life ? then shifting is just asking the scientists to switch up your simulation settings
if you discover you believe separation is an illusion and you're already everything ? then your shifting might just be recognizing what already is.
if you discover you believe you're literally just a thought having thoughts about having thoughts ? ( 😭 ) then shifting might just be one thought deciding to think different thoughts until those thoughts become the thought you're having. ( yeah , sit with that one )
if you discover you believe reality operates like a dream ? then you approach it the way you'd go through a dream ( fluid and natural )
if you discover you believe intention alone is enough and methods are just training wheels ? then your shifting becomes as simple as deciding and knowing it's done.
if you discover you believe assumptions create your reality and thinking makes it so ? then your shifting becomes about consciously choosing what you assume to be true until it hardens into fact.
Whatever your answer is , that becomes your guidance system. not because i said so. not because some popular confirmed it. because YOU have determined , through your own inner knowing and that this is how YOUR existence operates.
so stop searching outside yourself for THE answer get quiet. go inward ( why do i sound so spiritual saying this lmao ) anyway ask yourself what you actually believe about existence , reality , consciousness , awanrenes , literally whatever there is write it down. honor it. and then live from THAT understanding. they're in you. they've always been in you and we all are equals btw.
now go figure out whatever there is and everything else will follow from there including shifting.
HAPPY EXISTING AND SHIFTING 🫶🏻
