The Intention(al) Bias
Some self-help books and energetic modalities have latched on to – and emphasize – intention as a key component. They speak of “the power of intention” or positive affirmations as a preferred way of thinking or in their preparation or work with clients.
Some have asked “is there a role for intention in neutrality?”
It would wrap up this article in a word if I could say “yes” – but this is not the case.
Unfortunately,
when we check energetically,
we find intention is just another bias/block
to our neutrality
If a person or maybe a group (millions) harbors a belief or bias about something – judged good/bad – they unconsciously project that energy out – cumulatively adding with others with similar beliefs, etc., and this energy can affect all of us.
This energy enters the collective whether or not they put pen to paper, tell someone verbally or publish a book.. and it causes others with the same beliefs to also resonate and “pick up” this larger effect. And, resonating with some large effect is often a source and/or root cause of our symptoms – or of reinforcing the ‘no change’ state.
Being neutral about intention (we would call it bias or expectation) and to the energy of information (in general) is a better place to be.
Positive or Negative are Still Polarities
The paradox is; it doesn’t matter if the words, descriptions or information is presented/thought of/believed to be good (do this) or bad (avoid this).
Without neutrality, if there exists a specific intent (polarity), preference or bias – said or unsaid, our energy – and the energy of others – is affected by the projected / transmitted / resonating energetic imprint.
And, these biases that create unevenness in our energy – can attract & manifest new symptoms or perpetuate ones we already have. So, get neutral to the judgment and polarities associated with intention.
Get Neutral – Change YOUR Energy FIRST
When we have a preference, bias or polarity – we are choosing “positive or negative“, “for or against” or “want or don’t want” thinking. The more polarized our thinking or preference of specific outcome, the more we block any new possibility to manifest – and we will struggle.
Key Points of Neutrality to Intention
- Our underlying energy state predetermines our future and what can manifest, not our conscious thinking.
- Attraction “mind games” that attempt to trick or change an outcome just by intention – by outthinking the situation or clever word-games or side-stepping exercises – don’t work.
(we’re not NEUTRAL when we lie to ourselves “I.really don’t have a preference” – when we clearly do)
Attraction (or intention) devotees miss the mark; we want to attract EVERYTHING with equal preference (true neutrality) – and this gives us the best chance of attracting a particular or specific manifestation (out of countless ones) we used to be focussed on with our intent.
The “attraction” movement misleads us into the thinking; if we want “the one (thing)” – then we should focus on “the one (thing)”.
This sure makes logical sense, but it doesn’t work. Or it worked ONCE / inconsistently. for one person 2 years ago. Wouldn’t we want something more consistent?
Methods that don’t focus – first and foremost – on an individual person’s energy – or energetic state – will always have inconsistency.
It’s counter-intuitive, but un–focussing and being equally satisfied and widening our acceptance of MORE possibilities – actually supplies more energetic support – and increases our odds (but doesn’t guarantee) the manifestation of “the one”.
Choosing is Losing
Without neutrality, there will be uneven energetic bias – so, as soon as we intend, desire or prefer a specific outcome – in a biased state, there will be struggle – and likely no change.
Neutrality is the “No Intention” state where change lives – when we’re open to the equal and even energy of infinite possibilities.
Try it.
