Contents
Introduction
The Masterful Way is intentional, it is deliberate and it is powerful. It is a life of joy and happiness, which is ultimately all any of us seeks. This book is about Mastering this kind of life and you will find this book to be different. What it contains is not new, necessarily, but it is different. It is not another book on the Law of Attraction. Nor is it a treatise on the next generation of New Thought. This is a book about Mastery; the Tool-Set, the Skill-Set and the Mind-Set. It is an in-depth perspective on Universal truths and the Laws governing all energy, which is all and through all. This is a book about the journey of living your highest Self and taking full charge of your Co-Creative power.
I believe most of us have either intentionally, or perhaps unintentionally, given up control over our innate power, over our divinity, in deference to circumstances and forces outside of ourselves. Over time, bit by bit, we have incrementally covered over our divine nature with layer upon layer of junk; the stuff that gets in our way and slows us down. Furthermore, most of us are completely unaware of what this junk is. We know it is there; we feel its weight upon us. We just cant seem to define it, let alone get rid of it.
If all of this stuff is slowing us down, the question becomes, slowing us down from what? All of us instinctively know we are on some sort of journey through life, even if our only thought of it is as a journey from birth to death. Regardless, I propose we have got this wrong. We are not on a journey through life. Rather, we are on a journey OF Life. Of Being the life we are born to Be. However, all the junk we have accumulated keeps us from manifesting our desires and living our intentions. It shackles us to a millstone of circumstance we try to push up a hill. It stops us from the very thing we all desire; happiness, love, peace and joy, and places it all in a realm just beyond our reach. It is the stuff of doubt, fear, insecurity, complacency and of not taking personal responsibility.
What you will find in this book is the toolset, skillset and mindset of Mastery. In it you will find an unfolding of truths to help you understand the suite of Universal Laws that define all that Is. You will find perspectives on what is actually real and what is not. You will be given tools to help you work with the Universal Laws and how to get out of your own way. Most importantly, this book will help you define your desires and help put you on the road of Mastery. It will help you find your intention and help you remove obstacles, mostly of your own making, and define what it is you uniquely have to say, which benefits us all.
What to Expect
This book is divided into three parts. Part one, The Toolset, presents the groundwork of Mastery. In it I discuss Being, desire, manifestation tools and the constructs of time and truth. In the first two chapters, I present the foundational concepts of Being and the 12 Universal Laws that govern all energy. Chapter 1 introduces Being as the very essence of who we are and what we are all here to say on our journey of life. Being is our power, our uniqueness and our exclusive expression of God, or the Universe, hungry to expand through us. Being is unique to all of us because it defines what we have to say as individualised points within the energy that is the Universe, or the Mind that is God. This introductory chapter explains the many ways we may be inclined to say whatever it is we have to say through what we will come to understand as the Process of desire.
The power of intention and conscious awareness provides the fuel that feeds the Well-Manifested Life. We are all enabled if not encouraged to utilise this power, or we may choose to give it up through unconsciousness. There are consequences for both actions. Intentional use produces intended results. Unintentional use most often produces less than desirable results, or the results we actively do not want in our lives.
In Chapter 1, I begin to discuss fear and the insidious power it can wield over us, if we let it do so. I also begin the discussion on the one true desire all of us are seeking regardless of conscious intention. I further introduce one of the basic manifestation formulas, and also the most profound. The power of I AM; the power of your word. I AM is your statement to the Universe; the statement of your desires. I AM is the power of intention and the declaration of Truth. It is the structure of Being.
I further provide the framework around which the following chapters are placed and provide the context for what is to follow. I situate the book within this context and provide an explanation of how words, ideas and Processes such as God and the Universe are to be used throughout. I further offer a challenge to those who may struggle with the way in which the ideas and observations are connected together, which definitely flies in the face of traditional views of the sacred as well as the profane. Finally, I set the intent of the entire book itself and offer my desire for its contents to be of use and of help to those of us who are awakening to the possibilities of their own unique Mastery of Being and how to manifest more of it intentionally.
In Chapter 2, Being is defined by what it is and what it is not. All we hope for, believe and want for our lives is true happiness and in this chapter I begin to walk you through the process of helping re-identify the placement of the object of happiness along the journey on which we are all placed. I provide an overview of the suite of 12 Universal Laws that govern all that is energy, which is essentially everything there is. I further categorise these Laws into three distinct groupings, which helps deepen the understanding and use of them. These three groupings are the Primary Laws, the Static Laws and non-static laws, or Laws of Action. The intention of this is to understand how all 12 Universal Laws fit together and why it is important to recognise the necessity of gaining wisdom in all 12 Laws, not simply one in isolation of all the others. These Laws are interdependent and cannot be effectively used or understood outside the Wholeness of them all.
