Kindle Notes & Highlights
Signs can take various forms but in each case the most useful thing to do is decide whether their meaning is positive or negative. For example, if you are in a hurry and an old lady with a stick blocks your way this could be interpreted as meaning that you will be delayed, that the bus that normally crawls along will for some reason fly past today; Perhaps you
went too far in a situation and should be more careful, or maybe you are trying to do something that is not going very well and no matter what you do obstacles keep getting in the way bringing things to a grinding halt. Maybe you have chosen a dead-end road and should take a different route.
The main benefit of signs is that they have the capacity to wake you up in time making you see that you are acting in the interests of a destructive pendulum or to your own detriment. People often make fatal mistakes when they are under the zombifying anaesthesia of a pendulum, only later reali...

if you have to convince yourself and talk yourself into saying “yes”, then your soul is really saying “no.”
The existence of streams in the alternatives flow can potentially free the mind of two overwhelming burdens: the need to solve problems rationally and the need to control. That is, if the mind will allow itself to be freed.
Providing an explanation the mind can accept is actually essential because the mind will not take anything on faith and it is extremely difficult to shake the monolith of common sense. The mind demands proof and circumstantiation which you can provide yourself if you try putting the principles of Transurfing into practice.
Nature is in essence perfect and so the streams of the alternatives flow have
more purposefulness and logic than the wisest reasoning mind. However convinced the mind is that it reasons clearly, it will still be prone to making mistakes.
Self-importance prevents the mind from allowing any possibility of deviation from the original script which is automatically interpreted as a failure.
Imagine how joyful life would be if the mind could forego some of its importance and accept the fact that deviations from the script also have their place.
The mind’s compulsive desire to control everything turns life into an endless battle with the flow. If only the mind could allow the flow to go its own course rather than trying to force its will upon it. The mind’s greatest error is that it strives to control the flow itself rather than its own movement within the flow.
move the centre of gravity away from control towards observation.
Give situations a chance to resolve themselves of their own accord without active involvement or resistance.
By being willing to release control you will acquire more control over a situation than you had before.
exercise detachment.
When a person goes with the flow of the stream they do not put energy into battling against the current, creating excess potential and fodder for the pendulums. The only form of control worth your attention is control over the intensity of projected inner and outer importance. Remember, that projected importance prevents the mind from letting go. In many cases letting go of a situation is much more effective and productive than insisting on getting one’s own way.
If you practice letting go consciously the feeling of relief will be greater than when you succeed in proving your point. You will experience a sense of fulfilment knowing that you moved on. Instead of insisting on your own self-importance, you manage to act like a wise parent dealing with difficult children.
You entered an environment with a slow, peaceful, even flow, and with your actions started wildly slapping the water with your hands, trying to swim faster.
Never criticize anything that happened in the past and cannot be changed. In everything else, go with the flow, not in a literal sense by agreeing with everything and everybody, but by moving the centre of gravity from control to observation. Observe more and do not be in a hurry to control things. There is no need to be concerned about getting the right balance. A healthy sense of moderation will come with practice.
Guiding signs indicate a possible bend in the flow of alternatives.
Signs are characterised by their tendency to evoke the feeling that something is not right.
The secret of the intellect in any living being lies in the harmonious connection between heart and mind.
Dreams demonstrate what could have happened in the past or what could happen in the future. We already know what actually happened in the past and the future in the alternatives space is too diverse to guarantee that what we see in our dreams is an image of the sector that is about to become realised in the physical.
No amount of thinking will initiate a shift to another life line, even accounting for the density mater, whilst you sit on the sofa doing nothing.
Sometimes people fail to reach their goals simply because they are not persistent enough and so the goal does not have time to materialize before the person loses their passion and gives it up as a ‘lost cause’. You may even recall situations from your own life where the thing you wanted came much later than you expected, once you had given up hope and forgotten about your original ‘order’.
Also, if you set several goals at the same time that are not connected your thought energy will be spread too thin and dissipate into emptiness. The alternatives flow will not allow you to swim in different directions at the
same time. Attuning to a targeted sector is most effective when focused on one specific goal.
The secret is that realization is brought about not by desire but by one’s attitude to that which is desired.
Desire of itself leads to nothing. On the contrary, the more intensely you desire something the more active the backlash of balanced forces. Desire focuses on the goal whereas intention focuses on the process of achieving the goal. Desire is realized via the creation of excess potential in relation to the goal. Intention is realized via action. Intention does not intellectualize about whether the goal is achievable or not. Once the decision is made all you have to do is act.
Gratitude however is another matter because gratitude is by nature similar to unconditional love. When a person experiences feelings of sincere gratitude they radiate creative energy. The excess potential created by a request, on the contrary, delays action leading to a concentration of energy. Complaints, requests and demands
are the invention of pendulums aimed at harvesting energy. Thoughts expressed in the words ‘give’ and ‘want’ automatically create excess potential.
The only thing that does make sense is your intention to choose. When you choose you
really are creating your own destiny. If the parameters of the energy you radiate match your choice and no laws are being contradicted then you will receive what you choose. Choice is about the decision to have and to take action, not about request.
Intention does not create excess potential because the energy inherent in the desire’s potential is dissipated through action....

Intention in action discharges the excess potential created by the desire quite naturally, without invoking the medium of balanced forces. If you need to solve a problem, act. Contemplating the complexity of the problem simply creates excess potential and feeds the pendulum your energy. When you take action you...

Intention is the driving force that transforms sectors of the alternatives space into physical reality.
The intention to do something by your own efforts is obviously a personal inner intention. It is much more difficult to extend the action of intention to the external world. We refer to this kind of intention as outer intention. Outer intention has the potential to rule the world, or rather, to choose the model of behaviour the external world lives by, as well as determine the script and scenery.
These things are the work of outer intention which works to choose life lines in the alternatives space.
It is not the object itself that moves, but its point of realization in the alternatives space.
Outer intention is the force or mechanism that causes our misgivings and worst expectations to be realized in the physical.
It is much harder to work with the force of outer intention than it is to work with personal inner intention.
ability to work with outer intention once they are as free as they can be from the manipulation of pendulums.
desire, inner and outer intention. Desire is the concentration of attention on the goal itself. As you can see, desire has no power. You can think about your desire to reach a goal for as long as you like but there will be no change. Inner intention is the concentration of attention on the process of moving towards the goal. This can work but demands a lot of effort. Outer intention is the concentration of attention on how the goal is realized of its own accord.
Outer intention simply allows the goal to realize itself. Outer intention presupposes the firm belief that the alternative of the goal’s realization already exists and only remains to be chosen. Inner intention achieves the goal, outer intention chooses it.
It is the difference between changing and choosing.
Outer intention is focused on the process of its independent realization.
Outer intention does not hurry to achieve the goal as it is already a done deal. The fact that the goal will indeed be achieved is neither doubted nor discussed. Outer intention is unremitting, cool-headed, detached and moves the goal indomitably towards its realization. The following bilateral comparisons can help discern where inner intention and outer intention come into play: you try to get something from life – life freely gives you what you want; fight for your place in the sun – the world offers you its embrace; bang on a locked door – the door opens wide before you; try passing through

I am afraid I will have to disappoint the listener as I am not aware of any exercises that specifically develop a feeling for outer intention.
Inner intention transforms into outer intention when the conscious mind meets and merges with the subconscious.
