The Powerful Magic Inside

Every human being has powerful magic inside, and part of my job is to teach people how to use that magical energy. I understand the term ‘magic’ is somewhat of a loaded word, so let me re-frame it. Jesus called if faith and told us that with a small amount of faith we can move mountains. Buddha called it thought manifestation and explained that our conscious thought produces our reality.

How we focus our energy will eventually manifest in one way or another in our lives. For some people this implies ‘darkness’ or ‘evil.’ Darkness does exist, but I believe that it exists only as a catalyst to increase our vibrational frequency if we are ready to do so.

My personal belief is that darkness cannot ‘stick’ if there is nothing for it to stick to. This is why, when discussing lower vibrational frequencies, the best action is to increase your vibration. In my view there is really no war of light versus dark, or good versus evil. We can turn on the lights and then if there is something that needs to be cleaned up, we can clean it up. The darkness does not struggle when the lights come on. It just goes away.

For nearly all problematic circumstances our primary goal should be to change our consciousness and increase our vibrational frequency. It is quite rare that we are we taught to use this magic in everyday life.

There have been many spiritual teachers that have talked about it in the past, as I stated above. Jesus had enough magic (faith) to walk on water and Buddha could exert his magic (consciousness) to tame a wild elephant.

One man’s ‘magic’ is another man’s engineering. ‘Supernatural’ is a null word ~ Robert A. Heinlein

The fact is, most of us are not at the necessary level of consciousness to change our environments by exerting the magic or faith that exists inside of us. Ideally we will all reach this state on a global level. In fact that was the vision of both the mentioned avatars, and many other avatars before and since, but for now we can implement certain strategies that will help us to focus our personal power.

The methods used to focus our energy have many labels and are used throughout many religions and wisdom traditions. Rarely are they ever labeled as ‘magic,’ but instead are known as sacraments, rites, rituals, prayer, meditation, spiritual practices, mantras, and so on. These are all meant to produce a change. They all have a common thread. They focus our energy to assist us in the manifestation process. Some of them are more specific and some of them very general.

I feel the best form of magic you can use for personal growth is through positive affirmations. The most powerful affirmations are the ones that you will come up with yourself, but there are several good books and websites out there with many affirmations. You want to make sure that your affirmations are always positive.

Whatever you think you can do or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, grace and power in it ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Here are two examples of negative and positive affirmations:

Negative: “I am not sick.”
Positive: “My body continually becomes more and more perfectly healthy.”

Negative: “I do not vibrate at lower frequencies.”
Positive: “I vibrate with the frequencies of love.”

The best affirmation to start with is, “I love you.” Say this affirmation while looking in the mirror and see what happens. You might have some negative feelings pop up at first when you start using this affirmation, and you may even think that it is silly or ridiculous. If you have any negative reaction, you need to ask yourself why? Why do I have this negative feeling when I express love to myself? The answer to that question will give you a world of information about your current mental and emotional state.
