Controlling the Subjective Plane

The objective plane is the physical, observable universe. Most people assume that the objective plane is the catalyst for mental and emotional states. We're taught since school that the CAUSE is external, and the EFFECT is internal. This is ass backwards.

The subjective plane is, as best I can describe, more akin to the emotional/astral/mental realms. From our limited third person perspective (with the exception of those who are well-trained in the arts of empathy and clairvoyance) it's difficult to observe another person's emotional/astral/mental state, thus they are referred to as 'subjective.'

As mentioned, our ass-backwards education system and society encourages us to believe that we are not directly responsible for our life situations. Many of us find it hard to believe that simply tuning in to our desires and holding faith will transform the physical, objective reality into something according to our wishes.

Obviously this doesn't mean that if you meditate hard enough you can turn an old car into a brand new car. Not in that sense, at least. However, if you focus your intention and willpower on improving your vehicle, a situation or opportunity will emerge that will lead you to getting that new car - if you keep your eyes open. This is another issue that distracts people from this potential. They want a new car and they expect it to just appear. Manifestation doesn't (usually) work like that, at least not for things this big. It will come, though - whether it's through a new job, a discount on the classifieds, a friend selling their car for cheap... situations are never consistent, but they always reflect the will of the person experiencing them.


Another reason that people find this hard to believe is because many of us are sick, confused, or living in less-than-ideal situations. For someone who has been living with a distorted or unhealthy thought pattern their entire life, it can be VERY difficult for them to accept that their life reflects their unhealthy thought patterns. I myself had trouble accepting this for many years when I lived on the streets and struggled with heroin addiction. It's incredibly hard for someone to recognize the own imbalance and destructive nature of their thoughts if they have never had the opportunity to think in a different way - plus, nobody wants to take responsibility for the disarray in their lives. It's much easier to play the victim role.

Imbalanced, destructive thoughts lead to a life that is full of imbalance and experiences that facilitate or justify destructive behavior and feelings. However, it's only upon recognizing the innate power and potential misuse of our thoughts and our minds that one is able to seize responsibility for their own life and the power that they have to create.

I used to struggle with a serious addiction to heroin and my life was, naturally, falling apart. These realizations were enough for me to redirect the course of my life from a self-directed spiral into one of loving support, community, health, and financial prosperity. If I can do it, you certainly can - all it takes is a change of mind.
