More on Will
Original Source ↗For the basis of our discussion, we took the descriptions of "will" and "intent" from "The Fire from Within". Let's reiterate. So, first, what many of us haven't "seen": the Emanations within the luminous cocoon attune to the external Emanations. During this attunement, a force arises, which was named will. (It's like I took a piece of antenna cable from a TV and connected it to a cable coming from a cable TV network. A picture appears on the TV screen. And upon connection, a force (signal) arises, which determines what will be shown on the screen. This is a poor comparison, and I invite forum participants to come up with a better analogy.) DH states that for the animation and maintenance of the world created by attunement, "will" continuously reinforces certain elements of the world. We perceive this "reinforcement" as challenges from the world, to which we react - we see, hear, feel, discuss them in our internal dialogue. Intent, according to C.C., is the purposeful management of will, meaning the selection of those elements of the world that are to be reinforced. In the course of the discussion (or rather, my monologue so far), we determined that the elements of the world upon which "will" acts can be divided into two classes (see subject from 9.05). It's interesting to note that all modern relaxation, physical, and esoteric practices relate to the first class of elements. People achieve their goals by intentionally eliminating certain momentary elements of the world (e.g., you closed your eyes, put on headphones, and started Saint-Saëns, which brought you relaxation and peace) or by intentionally reviving certain, chosen elements (examples: physical exercise, pranayama, searching for hands in a Dream). But what about elements of the world that arose in the past and have consequences for our present? Is it possible to intentionally work with them? In principle, this is what the book that Spam acquired for us is about.
