"So, what is the purpose of this whole ordeal? Am I truly feeling helpless? Have I genuinely experienced heart-wrenching events? Is my life really that miserable? Understanding THAT, it became apparent that these things were mere illusions, appearing that way because I continuously identified with it happening to a little "me". I believed I was a helpless human being, lacking a deep understanding of my true existence. I stopped assigning any meaning to this story, not even deeming it meaningless. These thoughts are meaningless because they are nothing. Any idea is irrelevant to your true identity.
Then why does this situation exist? In the game of life, everything is just "Being-ness" playing with itself. I could ask why I have to go through this nonsense, but it's senseless. Why? It's all a big Paradox. So, when you ask why this situation arises, people seek a logical answer. But there is no rational, logical answer. It's like a puzzle; it's an appearance. In a dream, there are no rational, logical answers. All thoughts, emotions, and identities are things we collect. They are not you. This doesn't mean you have to confirm the truth in your mind because there is no truth in thoughts—they have no meaning unless you asign one to them. You can't describe THAT with words; you can only be THAT. Thoughts aren't something only you possess. So, there's only one thing: transcend it and realize who you are.
draft written by most likely Dawa , no one knows
Since everybody is doing it... here I go.
This ask is gonna be long. I had no plans to share because it's so ridiculous to talk about successes in a dream when you recreate the dream every second and everything is a success. I'm not much on tumblr these days and only follow the backup.
Anyway, some backstory, there was an ask- I don't remember about what but maybe you can share it, in which Ada said "you feel yourself as you no matter what body you have on you" I sat with that a lot because one of my biggest goals since I joined the manifesting community was to change my appearance. I came to the conclusion that I am me and the body just happens to me, and that it doesn't have to be mine unless I claim it as mine. So that's what I did, changed my mind. The "manifestation" happened overnight and I had another body on me the next morning.
These were the kind of questions I had before doing it so I will answer what I think you may be wondering:
My family noticed no change, to them, I always looked like this and they treated me no differently.
Other people who weren't family but met after, of course only knew me as this body, and they treated me much different than how I was treated when I was in the other body. It made me realize how shallow people are, their perceptions of "me" changed completely.
With a change of body, I could say I also had a change of "brain" I remember how it was to be the other body in feeling, but this brain thinks and feels things in a more... detached way. I know I'm pretty and I don't have many thoughts about my appearance. To be honest, I felt a little bimbo-ish in the beginning because I wasn't used to being this... carefree in my thoughts. There's an ease now in the way I exist that wasn't there as the other body.
It's natural and normal to be this body and I act spontaneously in it like I've always been this body and know exactly how to behave as "this me".
I didn't recondition my brain or change my thinking I only changed my mind about who I was and let things happen. I remember Ada saying her manifestations happened, even back then with loa, when she "got ego out of the way".
My conclusions and advice:
It's not the same body, it feels entirely different on me.
This body you have now is recreated in your mind time and time again. To change it, you gotta stop imagining it's you.
You feel it when you've changed. You feel it in your body, in your heart, in your being.
Dare to think differently from before and ignore ego.
I don't know if Ada still checks tumblr but I'd like to thank her from the bottom of my heart. When she left, I sent her the most desperate email, I was completely crushed. I had a panic attack that night. She didn't respond and I realized I was on my own. I had no other choice but to try my best no matter the results. That was what she wanted, for us to be independent. There is no one and no thing that exists without you, act like it.
You guys are making my day.
Amazing explanations.
I think it should be this post
You see, when you're yourSelf, before you say anything your work is done. You need not say that you should be successful. You have no idea ... if someone puts the dust of the path upon which you have just walked to their forehead, their wishes are fulfilled. This is not noticed by you. Unless there is full confidence in the awakening of the Self, your concept is futile. If this awakening is there, what is there to be astonished about if some work is done? In due time, the mango tree becomes full of fruits. Similarly, in due time, you are sure to be fully powerful.
However, for now, let it be definite in your mind what you are, and where your attention is focused. Then you become as vast as the universe. You become unlimited and immeasurable. Why should there be any anxiety about whether you, who are God, will get any food or shelter? You will get anything you want. You are the whole world, but wait until that inner conviction becomes strong. Do not be too eager. Wait until your mind, which is only attuned to the Self, becomes itself "The Totality." By devotion to the Self and humility of the ego, unlimited power is attained.
— Nisargadatta's Guru.
This made me think, back on my manifestation journey, I didn't want fulfilled desires as much as I wanted control and power. I wanted it to be WHEN I SAY. I wanted real knowledge and I wanted freedom. I wanted the how, I didn't want any confusion. I wanted to be the decision-maker. I didn't want to get, I wanted to give. I wanted to be powerful enough so that I would never need to get, that I would always be the one to give. I am truly blessed to have been born with a mind intelligent enough to make the right distinctions on this path. Discernment, logic, understanding – those were the ones which truly moved mountains.
No. It's acting based on knowledge.
Acting as if implies you're pretending.
You're pretending in hopes something will happen if you act this way. It implies you do not have the knowledge, and doing this in order to gain it.
But after gaining the knowledge, why still act as if you are an individual?
If you know what you know and still continue to act like an ignorant person, that is your choice.
Lester said, you can only have it through your own experience. What he meant by this is only that it is a conclusion you arrive to through your own discrimination. If I tell you, you might not believe me - but if you inquire yourself, use your own logic, your own intellect - and arrive at the same conclusions - then the knowledge is now your own. Then you know it. It is yours. Even so, you should understand - it is only the mind who imagines it knows or does not know. Self is as it is, all the time. How can God study to become God? If you understand God is nothing more than your own being, and you are That alone - the work is done.
Ego already doesn't affect the Self, the practice of detachment and everything else is all so you arrive back to your natural state of being, unaffected and unrestricted.
The experience is of 'knowing', it is not something physical, something of the body. It's an intuitive truth. That's the best way in which it can be described with language. It is something understood so deeply, it can no longer be shaken.
I get it now. So it's about moving through experiences for the sake of the experience. For love of creation itself. Our ego desires are inspiration but they are not the end all be all. Egos are a beautiful creation, imo. I love them. It's important not to become obssed with our creations that we loose our true selves tho.
Like getting to a place where youre ready to move on from one ego experience for the next day ego experience, rather than resistance for the current experience itself by way of ego echoes...and only because you're blocking the true self, the true vehicle of creation.
Like the ego isn't even necessarily real lol. It's an echo chamber of past creations. The true self is real, is life itself. Like moving on from one painting to the next...the canvas and the paint aren't really alive...but they can be moving...just like music...
Ahh this is perfect. It's the only thing that makes sense. Freedom is the only thing that makes sense!
Yesyesyesyes💕💕
You don't desire the things as much as you desire the freedom from needing the things.
What you want the most is to stop needing, stop lacking. That is why you are here, seeking to find yourself. You want to do away with all those suffocating feelings, you want to do away with everything that stops you from truly experiencing and enjoying life
You brought yourself here to free yourself. You can have, because you already do. You are here to realize that. The things are yours. The things are YOU.
Hiii Ive done the I Am affirmations and these are my results! I saw someone post on Reddit how they’d seen an amazing shift using I AM and other affirmations that I wanted to try as well. I was not only affirming through the day but sleeping on the feeling/knowing at night as well. I Also meditated but I really enjoy it so that was easy!
During the 4th day I could feel the shift, I became so indifferent to the 3D, you know when someone is like really calm that it’s scary? That’s how I felt. Like nothing phased me. I constantly would here and see people say that we’re God and that we create our realities blah blah, but that day it really clicked. Nothing is in my way, I can have everything I want.
I was at work this day and usually I hate being there but today I knew it was different. I got yelled at by a customer for a return and I was like whatever. During the end of the transaction I firmly stated “I AM” and the lady apologized for her behavior saying “I didn’t know what got into me” like right after I had affirmed. We only get 10 minute breaks but I was gone for damn near 30. I affirmed my managers wouldn’t say anything because “I AM” and when I came out the only thing they asked was “how my break was”. I also got my food and drink for free at the cafe downstairs just cause the barista felt like it.
My manifestations are instant there really isn’t a time lag. But that depends on me really, some things I’d prefer if I woke up and they were there rather then appearing in front of me, and other things I’ve revised instantly. I feel like I’m in the constant void? If I close my eyes and affirm for like less then a minute everything is still and I can’t hear anything around me. Like I’m really just consciousness with no physical body. It’s been like 2 months since then and I’m living my best life.
What I’ve manifested:
-clear skin
-desired Face and body
-Money+ a job in fashion that I really like
-money for my siblings and parents
-both my older sister having their college degrees as well as my degree(I dropped out of college like freshman year)
-revised that my parents were never smokers and are in perfect health
-my eyesight; used to be negative -6.5 but I don’t need to wear contacts anymore
-dental health, got rid of my cavities cause I hate the dentist
-moved to NYC/ got my desired apartment
-payed off all debts/ having no debts at all
-little everyday things like free food, drinks, parking, free flowers, literally super cute everyday things
-A new passport because I lost my old one
-shifting; I’d been trying to shift for damn near 2 years but I’ve finally been able to go to many of my DRs
-being able to manipulate time(slowing it down, speeding it up)
-dream wardrobe
there’s probably more but I can’t think of anything else. Just know that there isn’t anything I’m lacking or want rn, I have everything I can think of 😭.
omg this is absolutely amazing i love it!! especially knowing that everytime we are saying I am we are declaring we are god it's literally such powerful statement in just 2 words i absolutely love this success story and i hope it motivates y'all just as much as it did me 🥰
HOW I MANIFESTED MY DREAM REALITY IN A DAY
WHAT I MANIFESTED:
- name change
- trilingualism
- 5”10 height
- thin and slender body
- a RAGING golden tan
- face like adriana lima’s
- top grades + intelligence
- dp has a FAT crush on me
HOW I DID IT:
- robotic affirmations in my head (for example repeating ‘I have everything I desire’ over and over in my head whenever I’m free throughout the day)
- visualizing
- law of assumption
- the belief that I am God and I am the creator of my own reality
- PERSIST, PERSIST, AND PERSIST SOME MORE I SWEAR TO GOD THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
- being crazy delulu
I never actually used the void state for this, because I found that putting the void state on a pedestal was limiting my beliefs. Please refrain from thinking too much about the void or from putting it on a pedestal because this can really hinder your progress. Remember, you are the void. The void is inside you. You don’t need to ‘enter’ it because it is already there!
That’s it, just remember to have a positive mindset and be literally as delusional as you possibly can be. Worked for me!! This took about a whole day to work, and the next day I woke up and it was all manifested (sounds crazy but it’s true and I literally started jumping and squealing like a five year old when I realised it worked). Most importantly, remember that manifesting is supposed to be fun, so go have fun and enjoy yourself!! :)
Hey sweet I was just wondering if you have any tips or tools other than affirmations to try and change beliefs because I struggle really bad with affirmations. No matter how hard I try to internalize them I always just feel like i’m “just saying words to myself” and not actually changing my beliefs. If you had any tips to help Id really appreciate it so much. 🙏🫶
Hey, I think it steems from the the idea that you are "changing your beliefs". You aren't saying affirmations to "change your beliefs". Instead, you're affirming to remind yourself of what you already have. You’re imposing your new, chosen reality onto the present.
One reason many people struggle with this is because they don't have a past experience to anchor their belief, you know, a reference. It can be difficult to trust that you can always wake up in your chosen reality if it feels like it's never happened before or if you've tried and "failed."
If this resonates with you, I recommend practicing revision.
What is revision? Revision is the act of changing something in order to improve or correct it. When we're talking about shifting, the law of assumption, manifestation, or non-dualism, it's important to remember that time itself is malleable, since it is a part of reality.
The point of revising the past isn’t just about altering events; the ultimate goal is to change your current self. Here's the thing: when you constantly look back at every “failed attempt”, whether that’s in shifting, manifesting, or anything else, you reinforce a belief in your mind that you're going to fail because that's the relationship you've built with those experiences, and with shifting itself! (Let me guess, everytime you go and do a method the first thoughts in your head are "I hope I successed this time" or "I hope it works, last time it didn't", rigtht?)
So, revision is not only about correcting the past in your favour; it’s about rewriting your present self, which reflects in your current reality. By changing your past self and your experiences, you change your current mindset and expectations.
But.. how do you become someone who can always wake up in your chosen reality? Someone that can shift whenever and wherever they want? Here’s how you can become a master shifter through revision:
1-Decide who you are and who you want to be. Are you someone who wants to be a master shifter? Do you want to wake up in your choosen reality (DR) every time? Shift with only intention? Decide who you were and, most importantly, who you are.
2-Become that person internally. Remember, the external world doesn’t have the power to change you. It’s your inner self that creates reality, not the other way around. Think of yourself as the foundation of a house: everything that happens, every shift, is built upon you. You are the origin of your experiences.
3-Rewrite your past experiences. From this moment forward, every time you remember a “failed attempt,” you actually succeeded in shifting. It’s easy to think, "I haven’t shifted before, so it won’t happen now". But the truth is, every time you did a method, you opened your eyes, and you did actually shift. The times you thought you didn’t shift were actually moments when you did. It’s just that now, you’re going to apply the same energy and mindset to shift consciously, again and again.
4-Persist in your new reality. The most important part, this is your new truth. Reality works for you, not against you. The idea that you could “fail” is ridiculous because it no longer matches who you are. What about all those times you actually shifted or manifested effortlessly? Exactly. Failure doesn't exist in your new reality because it doesn't align with your new self, it doesn't align with reality itself!
5-Check your dominant thoughts. Whether you realize it or not, you’re always persisting in certain beliefs and assumptions. It’s the same way you’ve been persisting in the old belief that shifting is difficult. Now, use that power to your advantage. Persist in your new belief: that shifting is easy, natural, and something you’re already capable of.
hi everyone.
im someone who has entered the void state back when i still created imaginary concepts lol. it was many months ago, my experience was of bright white light, not darkness, and i felt absolute indifference. no love, no peace, no calm. just the biggest unbotheredness? (if that is even a word) of my life, i didn’t care about anything. i didn’t care so much that i didn’t affirm, i was like “im in the void, cool” and just stood in the brightness. i woke up the next day and a lot of things were taken care of. a lot of problems i had were resolved. but it wasn’t enough since i was still living what we now refer to as “vanessa’s life”.
after that, i discovered nondualism. it made a lot of sense to me and i was reading everything 4dbarbie put out every day. i was addicted. at this point, i was exhausted and tired from doing meditations every single night to only succeed once in a blue moon. it was ruining my sleep cycle and ngl... it always felt so forced to do all of that when i didn’t even enjoy meditating. so i switched and decided to give this new concept a try.
what i’ve “manifested”, with intention alone, ever since discovering my Self:
my own house (vanessa was living with her parents)
all the clothes which were saved on vanessa’s pinterest are my new identity’s actual closet
two dogs (wasn’t allowed pets at my parents)
kind, supportive family
older, new identity is an adult and all her assets are in her name
HOW I DID IT:
detached from ego. i realized i was never it and acted on it
during the day i’d ask myself questions like “if i was completely free, what would i think right now?”
chose my favorite thoughts and stuck to them
let go of believing vanessa was real. allowed myself to only think of what i want as real
HOW LONG IT TOOK:
There are changes daily. I say it took like a week to fully settle it in my mind that no character is me, and after that I was free to identify with a new mind and new thoughts. Everything materialized quickly, I wasn’t thinking on it, I knew I had it and just did whatever life made me do during the day. Maybe because I still had some resistance but it happened gradually, not instantly, every day I’d become more abundant.
My best advice is to surrender. It doesn’t happen because you don’t let it happen. Give up trying and allow yourself to believe only what you’re comfortable believing. Also, stop wanting it. It’s a contradiction because you can’t want what you have. Both Lester and Nisargadatta say desirelessness is the highest state.
That’s it, now apply mfs.
Good morning
This was also sent yesterday but I thought I should give some time for everyone to internalize the others before I shared
Made me giggle last night when I read it, thank you <3
Hello! I’ve been seeing a lot of disinformation lately, and I’ve noticed that some people might need help, so I wanted to chime in. I can shift whenever I want, and I see a LOT of limiting beliefs—but I understand because I was once on the other side.
Disclaimer: This is all based on my personal experience with how I became a master shifter. You’ll want to read everything—it’s important.
I first shifted around March 2022. I would always use methods. I would affirm, tell myself I was detached from this reality, and so on. During my very first shift, I literally affirmed all night long (if this sounds familiar, it’s because I used to have another blog here, lol). You know, really complicated stuff. Then... things changed. I couldn’t shift anymore. I kept using the same methods, but they didn’t work!
That’s when I started questioning everything about shifting and consciousness. Why was it that I could be in another reality where things like magic exist, but then suddenly I couldn’t shift anymore? Why were the methods, like lucid dreaming or the void, seemingly more powerful than the act of switching realities itself? Why, when I shifted from my Desired Reality to my Current Reality, all I needed to do think of my CR to shift back—but it didn’t work the other way around?
None of it made sense! And I’m sure many others have asked themselves these same questions.
I came up with two theories:
This reality has something unique compared to the infinite other realities. To shift from here, you need something extra, like a method.
There’s something else at play, something unrelated to the realities themselves.
I dismissed the first option. There’s nothing inherently special about this reality. So why do we use methods here but not in our DRs?
Then, I thought back to how I used to shift... detaching from my body, affirming until I shifted. It all aligned with my subconscious beliefs. The method didn’t work because that’s how shifting works, but because it made sense to my subconscious. Of course I would shift if I did these things—because that’s what I believed shifting required.
Well... kind of. As I said, it made sense because it aligned with my beliefs. So when the method failed, I wasn’t letting myself shift.
Did you catch that? I didn’t let myself shift. Of course, it wasn’t the method. At what point do you actually shift? Is it when you affirm? Do you really think the universe is just waiting for you to say the right thing enough times before it switches you to your DR?
No. It’s you.
So, you have two choices:
Find a method that truly aligns with your beliefs, or
Change your subconscious beliefs.
Changing your beliefs might seem hard, but I’m going to explain why it’s not as difficult as it feels.
All your life, you’ve had certain beliefs, but those beliefs came from somewhere. You weren’t born thinking you need methods to shift—it’s something that developed over time. Which means it’s not set in stone. It can be changed.
I realized that every reality holds the same weight. There’s NOTHING you can do in this one—no intrusive thoughts or negative emotions—that can stop you. Why? Because those thoughts and emotions are products of this reality. Shifting is simply changing what you’re aware of. That’s literally it. Anything outside of that can’t stop you.
Yes, we’ve all seen those posts saying things like, "Oh, you’re not focused enough" or "You spend too much time on X, Y, Z" or even "You don’t go outside enough" (I legit read this on here—y'all are wildin’). Are you in your DR thinking "Oh, I thought about failing to shift, it means I won't :("? Of course you aren't! But nothing can stop you from shifting. Nothing can stop you from being aware that you are a master shifter.
So, how do you become aware of that?
I started affirming throughout the day. I would tell myself these things:
I’m pure consciousness. I create my reality, and everything around me is just what I choose to perceive.
I’m a master shifter. I don’t need methods. All I need to do is choose to shift, think of my DR, and it happens.
Nothing in the 3D can stop me from shifting, because I’m in the 4D and pure consciousness.
I told myself these things constantly, and I truly understood what I was affirming. What being pure consciousness and being a master shifter actually meant. I stopped using methods. I stopped acting like this reality was special compared to the ones I wanted to be in. And then... it happened.
I shifted. During the day. I simply thought of my DR, told myself, I want to shift, and there I was—in my DR. It happened because, as I said, my subconscious beliefs changed and then manifested in my reality. The same way they did when I believed I needed methods.
Naturally, I stopped using methods. I stopped trying to shift. I no longer thought, Okay, tonight I’m going to shift, and I'm going to use X method. Because that’s not how you think or act when you’re a master shifter. I let go—why would I bother using a method before sleeping when I could just stand up, think about my DR, and be there? Why would I bother doing a method before falling asleep when I knew I'm a master shifter?
I allowed myself to shift. It was me! When people ask, What method did you use? What did you do to shift?—do you really, truly believe it’s the method that makes you shift? Of course you do, because you live in a reality that seems logical, and you apply that logic to shifting. But shifting isn’t logical! It just happens! I have no idea why—it’s literally just magic to me—but that’s how it works.
So, you need to understand: You make it happen. That’s a good thing, right? It means you don’t need methods, and you don’t need to keep searching for “the key.”
Anyway, I hope this helps someone. (Also yes, before you tell me, I know this is basically Law Of Assumption. But I wanted to explain it in more of shifting terms)
(Also if someone wants to post this to another social you have my permission- especially reddit since I was active in that community but I deleted my acc lol)
Edit: Hey guys there are some additional notes in the comments that might be useful!
