I have read your previous reply on this subject as well, I get that pretending will not make something come true. However if such is done over a long period of time would it not be enough to ingrain into the subconcious that this reality is indeed true at which point it would be acted out?
Or is this a waste of time with better methods of achieving the same reality? Perhaps it all goes back to the misunderstanding I have about magick that is stated in a different reply. This being is it better to raise the energy, direct it and visualize it then completely forget about the working/goal or should you consistently visualize/pretend your desire is being fulfilled? I have heard it both ways, some say you should live as if your desire has already been fulfilled while others say you should just completely forget the working and let it manifest, I honestly don't know which is better.
To answer the bolded line:
That is how delusion is formed in the mind. If one programs themselves to believe that something which is not real, is real or believe in it with any kind of certainty, you programmed a delusion.
This is how you get low level people thinking they are already a God, or equal to Satan, by them constantly telling themselves they are advanced and a God without actually doing anything to make themselves advanced.
The key to manifest a desire is two fold, one you must take action towards making it happen.
The action must come before the belief that it has become. Action is the first step. After action is being taken, you cement your believe in yourself that which you are working towards succeeds through your efforts.
The second, is power and knowledge. One must have the required ability to make manifest what they desire. Lacking that, even if action is taken, nothing may come from it, as ones action is fruitless and powerless.
For example, if one wants to beck s a millionaire, the action taken towards that must be effective in creating the avenue of success to make this desire manifest, which requires both knowledge and power to attain that goal through effective actions and work towards it.
The programming to success is done to remove shackling doubts and obstacles from the self which are holding you back from manifesting success.
You program yourself to believe in your power, to be disciplined in your consistent efforts to achieve your goals, and to have confidence in your work and your ability to attain your desire through the work you do towards it.
Just sitting there and saying all day "I am rich now and forever!" Won't actually make you rich at all, even if you dedicate hours upon yourself spiritual workings towards it.
However, at the same time, when one is working towards a certain goal, one must act towards it with great certainty that one absolutely attains the desired goal, regardless of the present state one exists in towards it.
On the example of wealth, as it is very practical,
If one at present is exceptionally poor and nowhere close to being wealthy at all, has no skills in making wealth or building it, and basically has nothing in this regard, still when desiring to get out of that situation and reach towards wealth, one must have absolute confidence that you both deserve all the great wealth you desire and also that you are able to manifest it in your life through your efforts one way or another.
The programming is to remove inner obstacles, while also helping you recognize opportunities.
Opportunities are always around us, yet it may be impossible to see them for us because we are blind to the things we are unaware of.
Spiritual workings and programming of your mind serves to remove obstacles and open up pathways to attain your desires.
It can also create new possibilities for you, through the energy one puts into it, creating new possibilities which did not exist for you at first, but are created now due to your directed efforts to find opportunities and ways to reach your goals.
The energy takes the path of least resistance, which through programming of it can be used to channel it to open other channels besides the least resistive ones, the programming acting as a way to open certain pathways and create resistance towards unwanted outcomes.
Through this, it becomes possible for someone to create immense success from nothing, or manifest the seemingly impossible.
Often times, for a large goal, it will happen in many stages.
First one will be directed through the workings one does to find the necessary knowledge one requires to reach the desired goal.
With the knowledge acquired, new possibilities can open up.
At the same time the working will force one to face ones personal obstacles, either mental or behavioral or otherwise.
For example, one may be lax in ones finances, without really being aware of this.
Workings can very easily help to fix this, and one can overnight massively improve ones financial situation without gaining any more wealth at all, only due to gaining awareness on mismanagement and lax practices that one has been doing.
The working has then opened up new possibilities once more, as now one has improved in terms of internal awareness and ability towards the desired goal, and also gained external knowledge which allows for further attainment of greater external success.
Energy will now have the ability to expand outwards, and new possibilities open up for you, as the conditions to attract greater success or opportunities are now present.
That is how these things work, and why simply wishing for something to be true or programming oneself to believe something to be true never gets one anywhere.
It does the opposite and only creates more obstacles, preventing one from ever attaining in reality the desired goal.
Hail Satan!
