Doubt is a common occurrence while manifesting our desires, especially at the beginning of our journey. More often than not, doubts have to do with the circumstances surrounding the fulfillment of our desires, which we often tend to view as insurmountable or very difficult. Every spiritual teacher tells us in one way or another that “circumstances don’t matter” when it comes to the Law and that we need to have faith and stay loyal to our vision. But why is it that circumstances don’t actually matter and how do we go about believing that so that we can rid ourselves of the burden of constantly second guessing our desires and doubting their manifestation into the 3D? Read on as we discuss this topic that all of us have encountered at one point or another.
Circumstances, no matter how difficult, opposing or impossible they may feel, are without exception manifestations of our dominant assumptions, beliefs, subconscious patterns, and self concept at one time or another. And since, as conscious manifestors, we are training ourselves to shift our state to assumptions, beliefs, subconscious patterns and a self concept that are more aligned to what we actually want to experience in our 3D reality, we know that we can shift, change and alter anything to our preference and choice. There is an infinite number of versions of reality that have already been created and all we do as conscious manifestors is to draw from that infinite field and choose the versions of reality, people and experiences we wish to encounter or improve or change our current reality to.
The challenge most people face is that they cannot properly detach from previous versions of reality that are either in their memory or even still appearing in their 3D reality, creating the illusion that change is impossible or at the very least, very difficult. In actuality, change is just a matter of decision. As Neville Goddard tells us, we first need a burning desire for a change – without that, the motivation to stay consistent and disciplined to imagining our desired reality and shutting out all other opposing options is nonexistent and hence likely to fail us. Given that burning desire, we then decide that our manifestation is ours (chosen from the infinite field of possibilities already there) and stay in that inner knowing and conviction no matter what the 3D may be showing us or what doubts our mind might present us with.
Circumstances can and totally do change, all the time in fact. One of the few certainties in life is change. We all know cases in ourselves and others of seemingly impossible odds being overcome, but the reason we can’t allow ourselves the luxury of believing the same when it comes to manifestations that we deem really important is that we become too emotionally involved and thus can’t see clearly. Knowing the fundamentals of the Law and how it works and why, we can actually detach some from our desire and realize that no circumstance is insurmountable or impossible to change because the possibility and potential is already there. All we have to do is connect with it in imagination and embody the person who already is, has and does whatever it is that we want to be, have, or do. If we remain indifferent to circumstances, they have no choice but to actually shift eventually or just stop mattering, because we have chosen and focused on a new reality, and those circumstances belong in the old reality we are no longer aligned to, so they have to vanish along with that reality.
