According to some of the greatest Kabbalists, or Jewish mystics, Kabbalah’s true purpose revolves around drawing close to and serving the Divine. These same Kabbalists claim that anyone who attempts to use the teachings of Kabbalah, the Jewish mystical tradition, for material gain not only distorts the purpose of these teachings but produces enormously negative energy at the same time. Yet, a huge amount of Kabbalah, if not the totality of its teaching, concerns itself with the structure and methodology of creation and manifestation, and many Kabbalists stressed practical applications of this wisdom. These mystics revolved their teachings around the idea that appropriate practical applications of Kabbalistic teachings should be centered on such things as tikkun olam, or healing of the world.

The Ba’al Shem Tov, Israel Ben Eliezer, a Jewish mystic and the founder of Hasidism, taught that whether or not we should use mystical teachings that give us access to Divine energy for our own purposes depends upon our intention. For example, the Ba’al Shem Tov claimed that not only was it okay to pray for our livelihood but that it was a sin not to pray for our livelihood on a daily basis. Yet, he did so with the caveat that we must do so with the right intention. To have the right intention, such a prayer must ask God for the right livelihood so we can provide for those dependent on us, share what we have with the poor and have sufficient time to devote to Torah study. In other words, we ask that we not just struggle through our work to survive but that our work allow us to help others and provide us with the opportunity to know and to connect with God.

Ultimately, our intention in acquiring anything for our own purposes – especially if we use the teachings of Kabbalah to help us with that acquisition, therefore, must revolve around spiritual development and relationship with the Divine. The Kabbalists believed we should have this intent when working practically with the principles of Kabbalah, because those very same principles are meant to help us develop spiritually and connect with God. As we study Kabbalah and learn to use these teachings, we access higher levels of energy – Divine energy. The higher the energy with which we connect on a spiritual level, the more we must direct that energy to spiritual development and relationship with the Divine.

Most of us find it hard to make the jump from “I need a livelihood, or more money, to survive” to “I need a livelihood, or more money, for my spiritual development and relationship with the Divine.” Thus, we must take small steps to help us get to that point. Here are few questions you can answer to help you begin developing a new consciousness around your personal desires whether they be for more money, a different or better livelihood, a new car, a soul mate, or better health.

1. How does what I want help others or enable me to move farther along my spiritual path?

2. How can I use what I want to help others or move closer to God?

3. If I had this thing I desire, how would that make it easier for me to direct my energy toward spiritual development, relationship with the Divine, or helping others?

4. If I had all the money I needed to take care of myself and those dependent upon me, is there anything else I would still need to make it possible for me to direct my energy towards spiritual development and my relationship with the Divine?

5. What do I think I need to direct my energy towards spiritual development and my relationship with the Divine? Do I really need those things to do so?

6. What can I do now – without the things I think I need or want – to move forward on a spiritual path?

7. If I were to receive _(fill in the blank with the thing you want or desire)_, how could I use it to help others?

8. How can I see my livelihood as helping others?

9. What would I like to receive so that I can give to others?

10. If I were going to pray to God ever day asking for what I need to help me give to others, develop spiritually and connect with the Divine, what words would I use? What would my prayer say?

In the process of answering these questions and then putting what we learn from those answers to use, we move away from wanting to receive for ourselves alone and into a consciousness of receiving for the sake of giving to others. In addition, we begin developing the intention and desire to manifest not just “things” in our lives but the totality of our lives into an experience of getting closer to and experiencing God.

Enhance your power to manifest the life of your dreams using these ten creative methods:
1) Keep the end in mind. Ask yourself, what specific quality of life will the object of my desire bring to me? Why do I want this? Will it bring more Love, Harmony, Joy, Peace, Wisdom or Prosperity? Once you identify your real goal, do your best to assimilate that quality without the object and you will be deliberating achieving a vibrational harmony with the object you desired in the first place. When you acquire vibrational harmony or magnetic sameness with your desire – the object of your desire or something better HAS to come into your life – for it is the Law!
2) Identify what you want. The number one rule to Manifesting your Dreams is to “keep your eye on the ball.” The Universe does not process negatives – only energy. Therefore the question to ponder is “What do I want?” The question is NOT “What do I not want?” except to identify more of what you DO want.
3) Expect your dreams to come true. Expectation propels your desire and opens the runway for your dreams to land quickly, easily and gently. Additionally, with expectation as your fire, you will be less likely to run out of “desire fuel”!
4) Imagine it in the now. Imagine how it FEELS to have what you desire RIGHT NOW! Abraham through Jerry and Esther Hicks says, “Your point of attraction is now.” Therefore, whatever you are feeling and focused upon right now is what you are in vibrational harmony with and are attracting into your life.
5) Be energy efficient – be conscious of your “energy.” Keep in mind that like energy attracts like energy – therefore “what you sow you shall reap.” Feeling the lack of something only attracts more “lack of that something.” On the other hand, deliberately choosing positive feelings and focal points will keep you in alignment with your desires.
6) Maintain a laser focus on what you want. Give it your attention. Use tools such as setting goals, writing and repeating affirmations, visualization, gratitude journalizing, creative collage, treasure mapping, creation wheels and meditation. Relax, listen to yourself, state the affirmation and visualize the accompanying action and feeling. Remember, “Wherever you go, there you are!” – therefore, BE mentally and emotionally where you want to GO physically.
7) Be unattached. Maintain your desires but be unattached to the specifics of the outcome. Never limit the Universe by being disappointed if it isn’t in your life right now or isn’t coming as fast as you think it should. Be careful of being attached to the how, when, where, and who details. Turn it over to God and release your dream with statements such as “This or something better is manifesting in my life right now. I let it go and prepare to receive my good.” ALLOW the universe to let it flow to you easily!
Go on an appreciation rampage and preserve an attitude of gratitude. Relish the moment and be appreciative of all that you have. Be aware of every opportunity that comes your way and honor where you are on your path. Look at each experience as neither good nor bad, but as an opportunity to learn and grow. Don’t scold yourself when you make a mistake. Develop an affirmative statement describing your correct performance in the present tense, and allow your light to shine! See through the eyes of love. Choose to live in joy and spread it to all you meet!
9) Let Go of the past and follow your heart! Once and for all. Release the fears and prejudices that come from previous experiences. “Heaven’s not beyond the clouds; it’s just beyond our fears.” Regret and fear are the thieves that rob us of today. Accept responsibility for your life. Know that there are no victims. This means really forgive and forget, live without opinions, throw out your old baggage and live fully present in the moment at hand while following your heart’s guidance and desires for tomorrow. Your heart will never speak in fear – only in love. Follow your heart and you will have all that you desire.
10) Dream big! Ask for more than you “need.” You are the child of a rich father in heaven – claim your Divine birthright to unlimited Prosperity, Peace, Joy, Love and Harmony. Ask for all that you desire (in alignment with your values) and have the faith to relax and enjoy the journey. “I tell you the Truth, If ye have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, move from here to there: And it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20

For many people, Cosmic Ordering has become an easy and very successful way of manifesting what they want. Not just the well known Cosmic Ordering celebrities like Barbel Mohr or Noel Edmonds but ordinary folk like you and me. Others simply write it off as new age mumbo-jumbo.
Cosmic Ordering gives people the vehicle with which to express their innermost desires. And in part this is where Cosmic Ordering is very powerful, it requires you to STOP and THINK about your life, about what is important and about what you most desire. Sometimes knowing exactly what you want is the hardest thing about Cosmic Ordering.
The world is infinitely abundant and those who are in tune with this belief tend to be very successful with Cosmic Ordering and are easily able to manifest the things they desire. But even for those who are not necessarily into all the positive thinking and manifestation stuff, Cosmic Ordering provides an ideal way to explore this aspect of life in a simple and straight-forward way.
There is little doubt that as success follows success, people naturally want to know more and start to explore Cosmic Ordering and manifestation techniques more deeply. They will be setting out on a long and exciting spiritual journey that can lead to seeing the world in an entirely different, more open and abundant way.
For all those that succeed with Cosmic Ordering, there are many others who’s Cosmic orders never seem to come true and who then write Cosmic Ordering off as some form of new age mumbo-jumbo. I would urge such people to try again, to focus their attention on all the good things around them and to try to see the world in a more positive and abundant way. It is important to believe that the universe is an abundant place and that YOU deserve to receive what you want to manifest. This underlying belief has been described as almost “child-like” or “innocent”, unclouded by anxiety or fear. An absolute acceptance that what you want will come to you.
Have you ever laid out on the grass at night looking up at the stars and felt the awe of the universe and felt your presence within it? I always feel very open and connected at such times and it is a perfect moment to place a Cosmic Order because it is just you and the Cosmos, the clutter of life is left behind – at least in that moment. Try it! The more you recognize the connection the easier it is to achieve in other circumstances.

Manifesting is the latest “Big Thing” and buzzword. People seek out seminars, workshops and gurus to help learn the secrets of manifestation so we can fulfill our heart’s desire.

My manifestation guru looks a little different than most. She has a shaggy beard, 3 inch eyelashes, four legs and speaks no English (or any human language). My guru’s name is Sandy and she is my labradoodle dog.

Sandy’s absolute passion is retrieving tennis balls. She has a knack of manifesting them in whatever park or school yard we visit. Here are some keys to Sandy’s manifestation success.

1. Be Clear on What You Want

Sandy knows what she wants. It’s not a stick, a squirrel, or a pine cone. It’s a round, fuzzy, green tennis ball. If you’ve gone through a life challenge, like divorce or a business glitch, you likely have a laundry list of all the things you don’t want. To manifest your dreams, it’s critical to take the time to be clear on what it is you DO want. Create that picture and hold it as fiercely in your mind and in your heart as Sandy holds her beloved tennis ball in her jaw.

2. You Deserve What You Want

Humans have a unique ability for creating our own suffering. We wonder if we are worthy and deserving of our dreams. Dogs like Sandy do not. There is no doubt in Sandy’s mind that she is fully deserving of that tennis ball. Sandy throws herself into pursuit of her dream with no hesitation.

3. The Joy is in the Journey

Each time we go to the park, whether it’s raining or sunny out, Sandy is grateful to be outside sniffing around for tennis balls. She has a huge grin on her face as she looks up from the deep grass as if to say, “Boy, is THIS ever a lot of fun!” Let’s remember that the joy is in the journey, not simply in the attainment of our goals. Savor the process of discovery and be in the present moment. That is where the magic happens.

4. Belief is Stronger than the Physical Evidence

Sandy’s belief in her dream is unwavering, no matter how overgrown the grass is. Holding a powerful belief, even when the results you’re looking for don’t seem to come in, is critical. It’s your job to maintain and hold your belief and its vibration as strongly as you can. Despite a lack of physical evidence or faced with criticism or disbelief from people around you, hold your belief. You can never connect to a dream without simultaneously having the ability to manifest that dream into reality.
