Pray to yourself for your deep mind alone is your God
When things go wrong
You can adjust to change
You can accept the bad
You can move on
You need to remember that you can be patient with yourself
You need to appreciate any progress no matter how small
People pray - they think it helps them to feel hopeful for the future. It is not
prayer that works - it is the points given above. People are trying to use
prayer as a trigger for them but it is not necessary. If you pray for magical
help, that risks making the problems no better if not worse.
Post hoc ergo propter hoc is the most dangerous and powerful fallacy of them
all. It is translated as after this, therefore it is caused by this. It makes
people believe in magic and prayer. The more these things are practiced the more
the fallacy takes hold. They make excuses for why magic or prayer didn’t work.
They say God or the gods had better plans.
The prayer, “May I be free from suffering” really means I empower myself to
refuse suffering and to accept it when it is unavoidable. It is the dwelling on
your consent to be helped helps not prayer or god or anything. Consenting to
whatever help may come even if it will not come is still helping for the
alternative certainly is not helping.
The power of your subliminal side
My subconscious is the part of my mind that functions remarkably like it was
another person inside me. It will comfort me if I treat it with respect and ask
it for guidance and strength. This is not prayer but merely good psychology.
Prayer is only pretending it is not your inner mind you are communicating with
and getting strength from. This is the reason prayer seems to help those who do
it enough and who do it daily. I “pray” to my inner self often and my faith
grows and grows and I develop as a person.
Your unconscious mind remembers everything that ever happened to you. Imagine a
computer hard drive. It has lots of information stored on it that it is not
using right now but it is still there. This is like your unconscious mind. You
have a file open on the screen. This is like your conscious mind.
The subconscious mind behaves like it has a mind of its own. It is able to make
you have coherent dreams and is behind many reports of religious apparitions. It
is clever. It is smarter than your conscious mind. The flashes of genius that
one can experience come from it. They feel spontaneous because they don't come
from your conscious mind.
When you have a lot on your mind and do something without concentrating on it or
realising you are doing it, it is the subconscious mind that has taken over to
perform the task.
There is no magical law of attraction. But it is true that good thoughts attract
more good thoughts and vice versa. You can consciously want something and use
the law to get it. Success would be expected. It doesn't come. Why? Because the
subconscious is programmed to nullify the powers you consciously exercise.
The consciousness mind can do this too. You can want to do well at an interview.
You are that part of your mind is telling you that you will mess it up. The
doubt then hits you strongly during the interview and you fail. But at least
when it does it, you can spot its dangerous influence and do something about it.
The subconscious mind is stronger than the conscious. The conscious mind depends
on it. Thus we need to take more care of the subconscious than the conscious.
It is vital that we meditate upon the essential truths of life and how atheism
makes you a god every day and study it. This helps reprogram the subconscious.
If we perceive that the message of atheism is true, this knowledge will change
the subconscious beliefs.
Free will, according to some, exists in the subconscious. If so then it decides
what we will do even though we think we haven't decided it yet. The fact that
decisions are made before we consciously make them has been verified by science.
Nothing appears in the conscious that didn't appear in the subconscious first.
The subconscious mind and the conscious mind can only be reconciled and will
work together better the more you try to have a consistent and realistic and
open-hearted approach to life. The subconscious mind spots contradictions. You
need to be a rational person to be able to deal with it effectively. If you feel
and think you are a wonderfully confident person, and don't apply for the job
you want because you feel inferior, then you are programming your subconscious
to work against your feelings of confidence. Your wonderful confidence is an
illusion.
We must behave in a way consistent with our knowledge of the truths of atheism.
For example, to say that you are the Merciful God of your own life and then to,
say, worship the God of the great religions contradicts this. You put a block in
the way of the tremendous possibilities for yourself and others that come from
your recognition of your own divinity. Other ways this can happen is by allowing
others to pray for you, considering joining a God religion or simply by allowing
your name to remain on its roll of members. These things can cost you your
mental and/or physical health and even your life. Moreover, do the right thing
for you and you will receive blessings and freedom in this life and they will be
manifest for you again in the next life.
It is a mistake to suppose that you can pick and choose out of the true
philosophy. To use the power of the mind to bring positive changes into your
life, it is necessary to be consistent. Your inner mind is cleverer than it
seems. Your mind has thoughts and realisations that you are not aware of. Pick
and Mix holds back but embracing the truth offers you freedom.
Ignorance, inconsistency, feeling or believing we don't deserve something much,
and failures in knowing what we really want and why are the reasons why the
subconscious works against us.
Talking to my deep mind will help clarify my thinking and feeling and pave the
way for possible solutions. More importantly I could be able to deal with it if
they fail.
Those who pray say they pray to God. But God if he exists will always do the
right and best thing so why ask him to do it? Also, why would you need to pray
much? Would it not be enough just the once to ask him to do his will?
When I talk to and trust in my inner and deepest self to work behind the scenes
for my betterment, beneficial “coincidences” start to pile up. It is important
to look out for them and welcome them. The stronger my faith, the more they will
happen. The more I change beliefs that undermine them to beliefs that affirm
them and are consistent with them the more I will see how lucky I am and how
lucky I can make myself.
Write the successes down in a Diary. This reinforces your belief in your power
and attracts even more blessings.
Keep a coincidence diary for both insignificant and important coincidences.
