Lackluster Faith

This is my favorite blog of all my blogs.  The Realm of AbraMelin's Squares is a blog that requires sincerity and depth before a new post can be written.  AbraMelin's Squares has a subject that excites me and after an entry is written, posting that entry fills me with more strength and determination than I had before writing it.

How to Manifest

Not my artwork; from Web
Two days ago I gathered up the material I would need to build a very simple awning over the east kitchen window to keep the hot sun out from 9am til 1pm.

After the window awning was built, I got a cup of coffee and sat back to admire the new home improvement and to enjoy the new confidence I felt in being able to create this magnificent awning.

I still marvel that I was able to draw a draft of how I wanted it to look, locate all the material I would need (didn't need to buy anything), carried the ladder from out back and propped it against the east side of the house, charged up the screw gun. etc.
Now it is evening and I'm trying to determine if Wayne Dyer's Manifesting tape which I listen to all the time is the philosophy behind the creation of that awning.  For instance, I had to visualize it vividly in order to draw up the pencil drawing or draft of the awning.

I even visualize it and more while doing Dyer's 'sound manifestation' the previous day.  In short, I visualized the awning and then went through all the tasks necessary to bring it into being.  Was that really manifesting?  I do not believe it is.

My awning was build with the use of the mind.  Dyer's form of creating or building is done without the mind; Dyer uses sound vibration to create.
