Prosperity Engine — Update — What a Fully Operational Engine Looks Like
I wrote most of this article on Saturday, but had to let it sit a day, because more needed to be said and inspiration needed a little more time. I’ve long realized that time has been one of my weak areas—impatience, frustration, procrastination, etc. Exercising my skills with time feels good—like a good stretching routine in my morning, physical exercise.
In this article, we explore what it’s like to have a fully operational Prosperity Engine—a day in the life of a prosperity master.
Fully Operational Prosperity Engine in Physical, Human Terms

In the simplest human terms, a fully operational Prosperity Engine would be manifested by a monetary amount compatible with our current, personal definition of “prosperity.” Of course, this will be different for each individual and their current needs.
For example, a head-of-household with monthly obligations of $5,000 would be relatively prosperous making $6,000–10,000 per month. The extra would come in handy for discretionary spending, equipment (maintenance, replacement or upgrades), anonymous donations, and quality vacations.
The key focus is never on money, scarcity or lack. In fact, the focus never shifts to a specific amount of money, but always dwells on the feeling of unlimited abundance.
This might well be an accountant’s nightmare, especially because their focus is on physical, cause-and-effect relationships. Bean counters and other control freaks cannot understand such disconnected freedom. Those are the type of individuals who always need to know “how” something is possible, and remain incapable of faith in a higher power. They remain incapable of the spiritual “Not-Know” required to operate a Prosperity Engine.
Fully Operational Prosperity Engine in Terms of the Mind

Mention the word “money” to someone with a fully operational Prosperity Engine and they would only have delightful happiness regarding the subject—a pleasant, comfortable gratitude for abundance.
Tempt such a person with worry about not having enough or similarly negative “What-Ifs,” and they will merely smile. They may even laugh and shrug their shoulders, shaking their head “no,” and reply something like, “You can create lack, if you want to, but I’ve moved beyond that. Far beyond.”
If a greater need arises, there is no “transition period” of emotional adjustment where the current rate of income is found lacking. No. The individual with a fully operational Prosperity Engine merely feels confident that the infinite Source of all prosperity has already covered the new requirements. There is never an emotional “bump in the road.” And if the increase doesn’t “seem” to come right away, the individual remains grateful and humble, searching for the new lesson they need to learn.
This way, growth of desire, responsibility and resources go hand-in-hand, smoothly increasing to meet our goals.

There is a biblical basis for this attitude. This is not to say that we cannot create without a biblical precedent. It merely means that the Ancients have long knon about this divine state of being.
“For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath” (Matthew 13:12 ).
Throughout all of the work on, and benefits from, building a Prosperity Engine, the primary active ingredient is spirit. Changing the wiring in our brains helps. So does changing the habitual chemical releases within the body. Overdoing anything—sex, stress, chocolate, etc.—can upset the body’s ability to heal itself and to produce the chemicals of neutrality and balance compatible with the mental and spiritual requirements for a Prosperity Engine.
I suspect that each person will have a different set of results, but don’t be surprised if you get any or all of the following:
Nearly non-stop inspiration.Frequent gifts of so-called “serendipity,” “synchronicity” and other cause-and-effect coincidences.Out-of-body experiences (OBE), also known as “remote viewing” or erroneously, “astral projection.” Let’s be clear: The body does not project spirit from itself. Quite the contrary, body is but a tool of formerly “sleeping” spirit—“dead” from the egoistic fruit of dichotomous physical reality. The moment spirit took on a physical nature (ego), it could no longer fit in non-physical heaven.Smiling and feeling happy as the new standard operating basis.No more reactivity, but calm observation and responsibility for all input. No more giving in to the temptations to be guilty, angry or egoistically protective of self.Perfect mental quiet except for the thoughts you create by interest and intention.An end to worry—replaced with a constant glow of gratitude.No more need for sleep, or a greatly reduced sleep schedule as the body becomes used to life without the emotional friction of worry.Frequent and instantaneous delivery of prayer requests for the benefit of others and self.Rapid healing and rejuvenation of the body.Repair and replacement of worn out cells and organs, with potentially infinite longevity.Acquisition of full spiritual awareness so that the human body is no longer needed for awareness, conscious thought, and the creation of physical effects. If, for instance, the body becomes blind, the individual can still see clearly through spiritual perception or remote viewing.
Proactive Karma Handling—Prosperity Engine Maintenance

There is no need to handle all karma and all subconscious, negative feelings before running our Prosperity Engine. But it’s recommended to handle all karma before it is triggered by circumstances.
Ego is physical. Ego is attached to both the spiritual and physical minds. One of the primary functions of ego is that of karma and action-reaction or victim-perpetrator thinking.
Our only dimension of free will is that of deciding whether or not to be ego or spirit.
As ego, we have no free will, because we remain a cog in the deterministic, action-reaction world of physical reality—the Big “Software” Program.
As spirit, we have far more freedom—infinite dimensions of choice.
As ego in denial of spirit, we suffer the second “Great Death” which reduces us from the 1-Dimensional choice between spirit and ego, to the 0-Dimensional choice of self-inflicted oblivion.
This “second death” state is mentioned in the Bible as the only “unforgivable” sin. The reason why it is unforgivable is because the individual has chosen the illusion of the physical self over the true, spiritual self. The spirit cannot be repaired if the individual denies it even exists. Forgiveness requires responsibility; denial is complete negation of responsibility. So, Pope Francis was lying when he suggested that atheists could ever get into heaven—a most evil lie.
Each of us is “old” in the sense that we were all born from the fracturing of God’s original son—Adam. This is not the “Adam” of human lineage, or the eponymous tribe he generated—the tribe of Genesis 5.
You, Jesus, your mother and father, Siddhartha Gautama Buddha, Lau Tzu, Confucius, Elijah and every other human, are merely fragments of the Adam of Genesis 1–3.
When Adam adopted an egoistic viewpoint, then that fruit (product) of the dichotomous (two-sided, opposition, action-reaction) Tree of Knowledge fractured the one being (Adam himself) into potentially billions of individuals—each uniquely isolated from one another in selfish separateness. Each individual acquired a unique package of egoistic desires. Every individual shares some desires with others and opposes everyone in at least one vector of desire. Thus, the totality of the spiritual group gives us every possible combination of the limited number of egoistic desires. These are the lessons that we must collectively work through. We are each individually and collectively responsible for these.
Some may be shackled with the egoistic selfishness of shyness, while others are shackled with the egoistic selfishness of arrogant confidence.
Some of us have experienced thousands of lifetimes and are more readily attracted to spiritual ideas. With all of those lifetimes, the “Old Souls” have far more direct karma—crimes for which the reaction to the original action has not yet matured. The “boomerang” of sin has not yet returned to us.
But our ultimate freedom depends on each of us taking full responsibility for everyone’s crimes. After all, we are each only pieces of the one, true son of God—Adam. And as creations of God, we are all connected to each other through both Adam and God. These lifetimes we experience are Adam’s dreams.
Greater spiritual awareness must be exercised regularly—scanning, with neutral affinity, not only our physical space, but also our mental space, our spiritual “space,” our egoistic space and the intentions of others.
With this kind of “awareness exercise,” we should be more capable of taking full, grateful responsibility for our own, individual karma, before it becomes triggered.
John the Baptist was Elijah reincarnated. Christ told us this. But John did not remember his identity as spirit connected to karma. He forgot his mission, and thus became a stumbling block to the mission of Christ. And he did not take full responsibility for his own past karma before it was triggered, and thus suffered at the hands of corrupt, Jewish “royalty.”
How do we handle karma?
First, it helps to understand God’s perfect purpose for karma. It is a tool for learning—for helping spirit awaken or gain more awareness.
Christ said that we should know the truth and the truth will set us free.
In the physics of creation, time is a function of inverse responsibility.
Pn = n/R01
where P = persistence, n = an object or condition, and R = responsibility. The subscript and superscript (0–1) indicate the range of possible, integer-only values.
When we use the high-level knowledge state of “Not-Know,” we are shirking our responsibility as spirit, for an object or condition.
Pn = n/0
This signifies infinite potential persistence. Never mind the mathematical purists who declare such an equation invalid with its “divide-by-zero” error. We’re not talking physical mathematics; we’re discussing Creational Mechanics.
This is the condition of manifestation or persistoring (making to persist). This is also the state of a fully operational Prosperity Engine. So, in this sense, shirking responsibility can be a good thing, so long as we don’t fall too far to the lower levels of attachment and degraded awareness or “knowledge.”
To “vanish” or “as-is” (make disappear) a manifestation, we merely need to find its “truth.” And this “truth” is neutral awareness of our responsibility for it.
Happily, this works for any physical creation, including karma and the “boomerang” of karmic, action-reaction intent.
If John the Baptist had been more spiritually aware, he would have seen his outstanding karmic debt, taken full responsibility for it, and thus would have received full “forgiveness” for that debt.
Christ, on the other hand, was more fully aware. His death on the cross was not the result of karma, but was the creation by loving intent of a powerful spiritual lesson—a gift to all humanity. Christ was leading by example—by demonstrating an unforgettable lesson in taking responsibility for everyone’s crimes.
This is the ultimate lesson in freedom.
This means that we do not need to die at the hands of selfish others in order to handle or to fulfill karma. But we should not seek to escape such death for our own selfish sakes. Both attitudes—irresponsibility and escape from pain—can be blindly egoistic and selfish.
We can be simultaneously humble enough to die for the benefit of our friends, as Jesus did, and confident enough that we don’t need to die in order to take full responsibility for our own sins, the sins of others against us, and the sins of others against others. We can even take full responsibility for the original sin—that of self against self in the Great Fall from grace (nephilim or fallen angels)—from immature spiritual wholeness to maturing egoistic separateness.
With the perfect state of humble-confidence (faith), we can receive that for which we ask. The only wild card in this is awareness (or the lack of it). If we exercise our awareness to become more and more knowledgeable of our own karmic debt, then we can dissolve karma before it solidifies—or “explodes” into our lives.
This is, after all, the purpose of karma—prompting the improvement of spiritual awareness and responsibility—key components of forgiveness.
Missed Karma, Triggered
Whenever karma is triggered, we tend to suffer. With ego, this triggers a reaction which lashes out to create more karma, perpetuating the cycle of suffering.
Gratitude—which includes awareness and responsibility—dissolves the karmic debt, stopping the karmic wheel dead in its tracks.
When we are grateful for triggered karma, despite the physical harm or pain, we are not offering happiness for suffering. No. We are grateful for the discovery and the lesson learned. From this, we mature a bit more as spirit. We are grateful for stopping the karmic cycle so that future incarnations will not suffer from it. In a sense, this is the “gift of karma” for our future “selves.”
Other Required Lessons?
Not everything we may define as “negative” is a result of karma. Sometimes, we need a certain viewpoint in order to “see” the next spiritual lesson.
When Christ’s disciples stopped their master at the gate of Jerusalem to ask about the man born blind, they wondered about the possibility of reincarnation and inter-lifetime karma. Jesus told them that the reason was instead so “that the works of God should be made manifest in him.” In other words, these were lessons about how God works that did not involve karma, reincarnation or the “sins of the fathers.”
In order to make the journey less “bumpy,” we might help eliminate the need for certain types of suffering by asking empowering questions, like, “What do I need to learn in order to take the next step, spiritually?” or “What viewpoint would help me see more clearly?”
‘Impossible’ Goals Made Easy
Some people give up before they even start. They assume that certain goals are automatically “impossible” because,
I’m too old or too young.There are not enough resources to pull it off.I don’t know enough.I have this or that character trait which makes it impossible.I wouldn’t know what to do or where to begin.The “globalists” would prevent me from ever doing something that big.That goal is too selfish, and thus goes against {God | decency | society | natural balance}.It’s a man’s world… or… it’s becoming a matriarchal world, so I’d never be able to accomplish it.There’s not enough money in the world for my goal to be possible.Zero sum game tells us that for any person to win, others must suffer and lose.
Each of these “barrier” attitudes contains at least one lie or half-truth. A far greater truth tells us that a goal can become impossible the moment we refuse to dream it in the first place.
If a goal is logical, it is possible. If a goal contains a logical flaw, then we can modify the goal so it becomes logical.
For example, fictional character Johnny Goodstuff has a crush on fictional Wilvia Wontfart. Johnny has a goal of marrying Wilvia, but she has an equally illogical goal of marrying Brad Pitt, the actor. Johnny is not Brad. And Wilvia has no interest in Johnny.
A far more logical goal for Johnny would be that of having an attractive and loving wife who wants, and is capable of having, children. His deeper, more fundamental goal is one of “familial bliss.” He won’t find that with vain Wilvia. His attachment to Wilvia sets up an impossibility—desire for familial bliss with a vain, celebrity fanatic who doesn’t want to be bothered with children. The two people have incompatible goals.
Another example involves a topic covered before in these articles—the supposed “impossibility” of a financial goal. Here, the goal is logical, after all, and the judgment of “impossibility” is false.
The current value of civilization on Earth was recently calculated to be about $5 Quadrillion. That’s $5,000 Trillion or $5 Million-Billion. A goal of $10 Quadrillion would be impossible now, but not necessarily in the future.
Civilization didn’t always have this value, especially when it first started. Back with the first Egyptian dynasty (~3200 BC), or even with the ancient site of Göbekli Tepe, Turkey (~9500 BC), the value of civilization was likely measured in single-digit millions—far below billions or trillions.
Humanity has gained in prosperity by individuals adding value—some far more than others. Get the hint? What if one individual added $10 Quintillion in value to human civilization—multiplying the total value of humanity’s possessions by 2,000 times?
What if we ended up with thousands of Trillionaires, millions of Billionaires, and billions of Millionaires? What if extreme poverty vanished entirely? What if the poorest individual on Earth, in that near future, lived like a king would have a millennium ago?
All logical goals have specific requirements. Those requirements need not make a goal “impossible.”
Prosperity Engine Progress
This series of articles has been meant to document my own progress in building and running my own Prosperity Engine. My own desire, here, includes thoroughly exploring the potential barriers to building a Prosperity Engine so that others will have less difficulty in building and maintaining their own.
I have observed a tendency for successful actions to produce diminishing results. This reduces enthusiasm to continue and reduces the energy of self-motivation.
Varying activity can help us become more aware of the barriers, but quitting altogether is wrong.
If a goal was valuable and logical to begin with, then we must not simply quit.
From the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza, David Bayer and others, we learn that the body has built up habits. When we begin to make changes, we may experience initial successes that give us hope. But as we continue, we run into the “dust” of the dark corners of our subconscious. This region of darkness won’t clean itself. We have to roll up our sleeves and persist—even if one of our core egoistic traits is some flavor of laziness.
Our best tools can become dulled by the crude, initial work of slogging through the thick, negative junk of egoistic desire and tragedy-generated beliefs. A short break may help us see what we might be missing. By inspecting not only self, but also self’s intentions, self’s use of mental tools, and the tools themselves, we may discover the reasons for a tool becoming dulled so quickly.
Sometimes, we merely need to persist while maintaining a neutral “affinity” (mental awareness) of our desire to persist. “Slugging it out” with the darkness of the subconscious while reducing our sense of “effort” or “struggle,” we will find a breakthrough. In fact, some of the biggest breakthroughs occur after some of the thorniest barriers.
After we’ve stacked up a sufficient number of breakthroughs, we will find the process becoming far easier. There may still be bumps in the road, but they will tend to become more rare and less bothersome. I have experienced some of these things.
I have also experienced years of neglect—not doing this spiritual work—resulting in a spiritual “calcification,” making it more difficult to pick up where I left off more than 30 years ago.
Taking a short break might be okay, on occasion, but I think we need to do so more with a sense of constructive purpose than one of abandonment—intentional or “accidental.”
My new favorite gratitude affirmation takes on the form of an Empowerment Question.
What would the Rod Martin of galactic exploration, terraformed Mars, and InDyn University campuses feel right now?
I find myself asking this question repeatedly throughout the day. It helps me “see” the viewpoint of that future self, after the accomplishment. It helps me feel the unavoidable gratitude of doing all those things, and for adding all that value to civilization.
I can see me in one of those many starships, entering a new star system for the first time, and using computerized “blink” photography from various locations within the system to spot its many planets, dwarf planets and planetoids.
I can see me having lunch with the crew, discussing the new worlds and the possibility of successfully terraforming any of them to expand the reach of ethical human creativity.
With this Empowerment Question, I can see me returning home, but stopping off at one of the new Martian cities and visiting its local InDyn University campus with its world-changing grad students.
Part of my reason for this series of Prosperity Engine articles and for building my own Prosperity Engine was borne out of a rekindling of these and other long-range goals I had developed over the last 50 years.
From that rekindling, I had explored numerous avenues for achieving those goals—including,
Writing books,Producing YouTube videos,Creating online courses, andAllowing people to become patrons of my work (SubscribeStar and Patreon).
On this last item, I have developed a “welcome” video for my new SubscribeStar account.
The video can also be found on YouTube at Rod Martin, Jr. – SubscribeStar Welcome.
Though I don’t mind making a small fortune off helping others with their own prosperity, if others find this material valuable, I would prefer to make most of my prosperity from other types of “adding value” to civilization. Making money off of the idea of making money does not feel like adding substantial value to civilization. It’s more like a launderer taking in their own laundry, or a farmer eating all his own produce. But helping others become more aware and capable could add lots of value.
A Small Example of Adding Value—Pangaea Sister Sites
[image error]One of my many Prosperity Engine projects: Pangaea Sister Sites, a book about Earth’s past and present. This is the book cover showing the link between New York City and Dakhla, Western Sahara during the period of dinosaur rule. Cover: Copyright © Rod Martin, Jr.
My current Rod Martin book project is called Pangaea Sister Sites: Celebrating Connections Across Time. The book contains dozens of pictures and maps, including Paleomaps by Dr. Christopher Scotese, professional geologist.
My hope is that the book helps to stimulate more interest in geography, geology, maps, history, climate and other sciences. The book is about half done and includes detailed maps of Pangaea from 180 million years ago.
This book combines many of my lifetime interests—cartography, human civilization, cultural diversity, history, science and dinosaurs.
The Natalie Wood Syndrome

That upon which our attention remains stuck tends to be that of which we get more. But there’s a wrinkle to this and I discovered it on Sunday (yesterday).
If we remain actively afraid of something, we remain fairly safe, but suffer the damage of extreme stress. I say the word “safe” guardedly, because there are many vectors of intention involved in any danger, any one of which could lead to our demise or otherwise the triggering of karma.
In 1981, actress Natalie Wood (born Natalia Nikolaevna Zakharenko, 1938) died of drowning. Natalie’s sister, actress Lana Wood (Svetlana Gurdin), said that Natalie had suffered a lifelong fear of the water and could not swim.
In a 2012 article discussing the recent discovery of the Higgs Boson (“god particle,” 2012:0704) and the possible connection to our mind controlling matter, Susan Borowski stated, “One possible example of this is the death of Natalie Wood, something which is still shrouded in mystery. Her fear of water was well-documented throughout her lifetime. Her fear of death by drowning was something she was focused on anytime she was near water. So when she drowned after falling off a yacht, she died in the way that she feared the most. One could argue that it was coincidence; bad luck; a premonition on her part; or a self-fulfilling prophecy. But the Law of Attraction theory fits as well. ‘You bring about what you think about.’”
Active, conscious fear fouls up the “Law of Attraction” because it blocks the “Not-Know” or “resting” or “allowing” that activates a creation. Taking a creation out of conscious thought (awareness) while keeping our attention (subconscious feeling certainty) on that creation is what gives the creation persistence or manifestation.
Let us say a person lives in fear of a specific threat—like Natalie Wood’s fear of drowning. That fear is not always at the same strength. Sometimes we forget about the fear when we are distracted by happiness or by some dark emotion on a different topic. This is when the individual runs into the “sweet spot” of activating the creation—when the subconscious attention is still on the dread and the conscious mind is on something else.
Did this happen with the actress in 1981? Was her argument with her husband enough of a distraction while on their yacht, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean? We may never know for certain, but the possibility of this cause-and-effect connection is very real. And this mind-spirit-physical universe connection does not eliminate the possibility that foul play might have been involved.
This is the same type of syndrome which led to a “surprise” traffic citation in Beverly Hills some 35 years ago. I should’ve known better, but I let a light “fear” of a traffic ticket slip into “Not-Know” while my conscious awareness was on the clean beauty of that high-class, California city. I had noticed a police car, felt a brief, but light fear, suppressed the idea, and turned my awareness onto my surroundings. Oops!
Sunday, I received another example of this “Natalie Wood Syndrome” while drinking my morning coffee.
The coffee was getting cold, so I merely sipped, leaving only a tiny bit in the bottom of the cup. I noticed a spider on the wall behind my desk—a tiny thing, about half a centimeter across (1/4 inch). I felt a memory being triggered of waking up with a spider bite and other spider-related inconveniences, but then took my awareness off of the tiny creature, and went to take an exercise break.
When I got back, I took one last swig of coffee and felt something solid in the midst of the liquid. I spat it out into the cup and went to the kitchen to poor the remaining liquid into my cup’s saucer. There it was: the spider! How did he get from the back wall, 5 centimeters (two inches) from my desk, all the way across my large desk, and into my coffee cup? All in less than 5 minutes! And why?
Then, I remembered. And then I took full responsibility for the unwitting creation and persistoring (act of causing to persist) of the “spider attack.”
Creating and having that creation persist is effortless. The reason we don’t see more of it is because two things:
We are creating the status quo—maintaining the existing reality, or
We are efforting (using effort instead of effortlessness), and thus preventing, a creation from manifesting.
Both of these appear “invisible” to the unobservant (confident but non-humble) human. Both of these tend to help us remain “comfortable” in our ignorance of the power we possess. Both of these help the atheist and secular “unbeliever” remain safe in their security blanket of logically fallacious denial.
This is power that God gave us—the power to ask and to receive. All power flows from Him, but we have the free will whether or not to be spirit or to be ego. We have the freedom to ask with our whole being or to be divided—conscious mind pointing one way and subconscious mind in another.
Mostly, we humans remain “safe” from such power because we remain in the rugged toughness of “effort” (effect) instead of the “effortlessness” of creation (cause).
We have the opportunity to improve on one other ingredient which will help us remain relatively safe while we improve our ability to create. That other “safety” ingredient is awareness—greater clarity in precision perception of exactly what we are asking from moment to moment. When we can take full responsibility for that awareness, then we can safely control anything in the universe. Like Christ said, faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains. It can even move entire galactic clusters—or even the entire universe.
When we fully realize that miracles are created and persistored without any effort at all, we realize that such infinite power should not surprise us. When we realize that effort equals doubt—the opposite of the faith to perform such miracles—then we also realize that considerations of size or difficulty do not matter.
Coming Up Next
In the next article, we look at the “Leverage of Imagination.” No matter what the apparent problem we face, or how big or thorny is the barrier in our way, we have the tools to blast right through them, if we remain humble enough and hungry enough to see them.
