5 Ways to Increase Your Mind Power Over Money
1.) Saturate your mind with new ways in which money could possibly enter your mind. Your reality is directly linked with what you would allow into your mind. If you cannot imagine a possible experience in your mind it won’t happen in reality. Just by allowing yourself to imagine the possibility of manifesting money in new ways will open the channel for it to happen.
2.) Eliminate the fear and anxiety that you have with money. Feelings of fear, doubt and anxiety create mental and psychic blocks between what you really want. If you have fear and anxiety about money that would mean that the images you are holding in your mind do not support the story of having money. Feelings of fear and anxiety are an indication that you have saturated your mind with lack of money, loss of money, poverty and all the things what would assure that you never manifest money again. Learn to let go of the fear and anxiety associated with money.
3.) Be ok with not having money. It is a mental trick that you have to master. The moment you can release your attachment to money the quicker you allow the spiritual flow to happen. Let your goal to manifest money became like a game of Monopoly. Have fun but do not let money control you.
4.) Reprogram your mind about money. Your mind is like a computer. You can achieve to the degree what is first programmed into your mind. The person who is able to manifest five thousand dollars ever month is able to do so because like a computer that person’s mind is programmed for that amount.
5.) Examine your money truth. Before you can manifest money you have to examine and expose your own money program. What has your relationship with money been? How do you feel about manifesting more money? Does this make you feel excited or anxious? How determined are you to achieve your goal and what are you willing to do to achieve it? These are just some of the questions you need to ask yourself before you can move forward. Once you tackle these five essential keys, you are then ready to open your mind to new levels and techniques that will skyrocket your manifesting success.

A Hollow Reed

This reed is a Perfect Man Who is likened to a reed, and the manner of its likeness is this: when the interior of a reed is empty and free from all matter, it will produce beautiful melodies; and as the sound and melodies do not come from the reed, but from the flute player who blows upon it, so the sanctified heart of that blessed Being is free and emptied from all save God, pure and exempt from the attachments of all human conditions, and is the companion of the Divine Spirit. Whatever He utters is not from Himself, but from the real flute player, and it is a divine inspiration. That is why He is likened to a reed; and that reed is like a rod—that is to say, it is the helper of every impotent one, and the support of human beings. It is the rod of the Divine Shepherd by which He guards His flock and leads them about the pastures of the Kingdom.’

“RELAX, YOU ARE NOT THE DOER”

What is stress?

Stress is the tension between ‘what is’ in this moment, and your image of how this moment ‘should’ be.

Stress is a narrow focus on a mental list of ‘things to do’, an imaginary burden of ‘all the things that haven’t been done yet’.

Stress always involves future-thinking, a forgetting of the Ground of Grounds – this moment, here, now.

When the focus shifts away from what is not present, to what is present, from ‘lack’ to what is fully here, and instead of trying to complete a seemingly endless list of a thousand things, you simply do the next thing, the thing that presents itself, with your full attention and passion, lists get completed effortlessly, without stress – and even if they don’t, creative solutions are found.

Relax. You are not the doer.

– Jeff Foster

Researchers at the Laboratoire d’Écologie at the University Pierre and Marie Curie (Ecole Normale Supérieure/CNRS) and the Royal Holloway College (London, United Kingdom) have just explained the evolution of altruistic behavior in animals.

In nature animals have been observed cooperating, and the detection of a genetic predisposition to this type of behavior contradicts Darwin’s theory of evolution which predicts a better survival rate for the most selfish animals. The use of mathematical modeling has provided a new explanation for the surprising persistence of this type of behavior which appears, at first sight, to be detrimental to the animal adopting it.
This work is published in Nature on 30 March 2006.
Even today Darwin’s Theory of Evolution continues to give rise to scientific debates. One of the subjects which triggers such debate is that of altruism, regularly observed in several animal classes. This type of behavior consists of helping another animal, at the expense of the helper’s well-being. In general altruists only help family members and in this way the behavior contributes indirectly to the transmission of a part of their genes (selection of the immediate family).
However “selfish” individuals may “cheat” and receive help while giving none in return. What to make of these cheaters, who have an advantage, and hence can better transmit their genes?
W.D. Hamilton, one of the first proponents of the modern theory of evolution, assumed that the altruists could identify each other. However, this does not take into account the incredible capacity of all living beings to adapt. The so-called “green beard” theory illustrates this question: the theory posits that altruists could have green beards, and thus be recognized by other altruists. The few selfish individuals of the same species which also have green beards will effectively have the opportunity to cheat…and will succeed at the expense of the altruists.
Real life examples seem to uphold this theory because such situations exist in the natural world. Of course they do not involve green beards but, for example, ants secreting scents or molecules produced by bacteria.
Vincent Jansen and Minus Van Baalen of the Laboratoire d’écologie at the University of Pierre and Marie Curie (ENS/CNRS) have just introduced a new factor which supports Hamilton’s explanation. Using mathematical modeling, they have demonstrated that cooperation can be selected for during the evolution of a species if the altruists can change the “color of their beards” when the cheaters become too numerous. In this game of evolutionary cat and mouse the altruists are always one step ahead of the cheaters.
This discovery explains the enigma created by the detection of genes leading to a predisposition in altruists to recognize each other.

“Prayer,” says `Abdu’l-Bahá, “is conversation with God.” In order that God may make known His mind and will to human beings, He must speak to us in a language which we can understand, and this He does through the guidance of the Manifestations. While the Manifestations of God are alive They speak with women and men face to face and convey to them the Message of God, and after Their death Their message continues to reach people’s minds through their recorded sayings and writings. But this is not the only way in which God can commune with and inspire those whose hearts are seeking after truth, wherever they are, and whatever their native race or tongue. By this language the Manifestation continues to hold converse with the faithful after His departure from the material world. `Abdu’l-Bahá speaks much of this spiritual language. He says, for instance:
We should speak in the language of heaven — in the language of the spirit — for there is a language of the spirit and heart. It is as different from our language as our own language is different from that of the animals, who express themselves only by cries and sounds. It is the language of the spirit which speaks to God. When, in prayer, we are freed from all outward things and turn to God, then it is as if in our hearts we hear the voice of God. Without words we speak, we communicate, we converse with God and hear the answer. … All of us, when we attain to a truly spiritual condition, can hear the Voice of God.
