New Thought Practices

New Thought Millennials are overwhelmingly independent practitioners. One of the reasons for this is a shared understanding that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is the highest spiritual teaching imparted to humanity through humanity.

This truth is not commonly taught in most old New Thought communities which means they are less attractive to Millennials.

New Thought Millennials embrace spiritual practices such as meditation, conscious communication and spiritual mind treatment (cognitive psychology) etc... as the means to personal evolution and co-creation of Civil Societies which are robust vehicles for the creation of a compassionate culture throughout the world.

Explore the New Thought Practice of Visualization

Spiritual practice is a means by which we individually evolve. It should be noted that while New Thought spiritual practices are ancient, they have been validated by medical science. Successful scientists, artists, musicians, athletes and astronauts use many of these tools to achieve higher levels of creativity. This is because happy successful people share in common the understanding that as we cultivate higher consciousness, focus attention upon the expansion of our awareness and compassion, and develop personal wisdom, we are able to manifest our dreams. Wisdom is the combination of knowledge with compassion. While those who operate from the "Reptilian Brain" often have erroneous concepts leading to beliefs that domination is the key to success, higher thinkers are aware that the greatest success comes through partnership and co-creation.  

 Through intention to live lives of dynamic compassionate action to this and Spiritual Practices to support that intention, we are able to transform our thinking and consequently our hearts which opens the flow of divine dynamics into our lives through higher thinking.  The result is joyful success.

Visualization is a New Thought Practice

Visualization ~ the act of directed imagination

“Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own.”
-- Robert Collier

"We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world."
~ Buddha

Visualization is a favorite tool of the megastar basketball player Michael Jordan. It is used by countless successful people in the world. It is used by most people unconsciously and thus creates randomly instead of intelligently. Once we begin consciously directing and using this tool it becomes a powerful tool to enable us to achieve better results and create better lives.

Visualization is the act of directed imagination. Seeing the results of your actions prior to taking action. In the case of Michael Jordan, he would visualize the basketball going through the hoop and thus his mind and body were united in the goal and the results can be seen for themselves.

Directing your imagination

Visualization ~ Directing your imagination

"Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blue print, and begin to build."
-- Robert Collier

“I visualize things in my mind before I have to do them. It's like having a mental workshop.”
Jack Youngblood

Visualization is the act of directed imagination. Seeing the results of your actions prior to taking action. In the case of Michael Jordan, he would visualize the basketball going through the hoop and thus his mind and body were united in the goal and the results can be seen for themselves.

The best thing to focus on is yourself. Write down what you want to change about yourself. Deeper Wisdom, deeper compassion, the ability to make important decisions easily. These type of things will result in changes in yourself which will lead to major changes in your life. Do you want better health? Visualize yourself having better health and doing the things that bring about better health. Remember the tool of Goal Setting / Planning. You will be writing down what you want in your life and then developing a vision of having that life. Start with "easier" goals, then you can work up to "harder" ones.

Visulization & Success

Visualization ~ and Success

“See things as you would have them be instead of as they are.”
-- Robert Collier

"Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding.
Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade.
Your mind will seek to develop the picture...Do not build up obstacles in your imagination."
~ Norman Vincent Peale

Quantuum Physics teaches us that there are amazing and wonderful natural forces at work in the Universe which enable causation to bring about changes that appear to be far from the original cause. This is sometimes referred to as the Butterfly Effect which is described as a butterfly flaps its wings in the Amazon which results in a rain in China.

Visualization is a powerful tool which enables us to transform ourselves and the lives we are leading. It assists us in bringing about quantuum leaps in consciousness and when applied with compassion for ourselves and joyful acceptance of transformation our lives and the lives we interact with become better.

Amazing Results

Visualization ~ Amazing results

Man can only receive what he sees himself receiving.
- Florence Scovel Shinn

“We lift ourselves by our thought. We climb upon our vision of ourselves. If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and of yourself. Hold the ideal of yourself as you long to be, always everywhere.”
-- Orison Swett Marden

With a little practice, you can cause wonderful events to manifest in your life. Visualization is a way of using your mind to manifest things. Everyone is already using Visualization in their lives but the majority of people are not using it consciously with purpose. People who tell themselves that they are unlucky, unloved, unattractive, or unable to do things create that reality and begin to live it. This can happen unconsciously and usually does. In contrast to this, people who think they are fortunate, loved, beautiful/handsome begin to create this reality for themselves.

There are some important principles to remember when practicing this tool. First of all, you should not direct the tool at other people, particularly in a negative way. If you begin attempting to manipulate others using this tool, it will often bounce back on you and result in problems in your life. This is because you are interacting with energies outside of yourself that are in the compass of other people's control. Thus you cannot predict the outcome. It is wise to simply focus on your own life and not attempt to apply this tool to anyone else's reality.

"No one has ever become poor by giving." - Anne Frank

“Deeds of giving are the very foundations of the world.” ~ from the Mishna, Pirkei Avot 1:2

“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.” ~ Albert Pike (1809 – 1891)

“The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.” ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt (Second Inaugural Address, 1937)

“What is the use of living, if it not be to strive for noble causes and to make this muddled world a better place for those who will live in it after we are gone?” ~ Winston Churchill (speech in Dundee, 1908)

“The highest use of capital is not to make more money but to make money do more for the betterment of life.” ~ Henry Ford (1863 – 1947)

“If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he does, it must be by what he gives.” ~ Robert South (1634 – 1716)

“I would rather have it said, ‘He lived usefully,’ than, ‘He died rich.’” ~ Benjamin Franklin (letter to his mother, 1750)

“The proper aim of giving is to put the recipients in a state where they no longer need our gifts.” ~ C.S. Lewis (The Four Loves, 1960)

“But history will judge you, and as the years pass, you will ultimately judge yourself, in the extent to which you have used your gifts and talents to lighten and enrich the lives of your fellow men. In your hands lies the future of your world and the fulfillment of the best qualities of your own spirit.” ~ Robert F. Kennedy (speech at Berkeley, 1966)

“If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.” ~ John F. Kennedy (Inaugural Address, 1961)

“Is the rich world aware of how four billion of the six billion live? If we were aware, we would want to help out, we’d want to get involved.” ~ Bill Gates

“Riches, power and fame last only for a few years! Why do people cling so desperately to these transitory things? Why can’t people who have more than they need for themselves give that surplus to their fellow citizens? Why should some people have such a hard time during their few years on this earth?” ~ Anne Frank (diary entry, 1944)

It is understood that New Thought is a unique and powerful spiritual path which can characterized as a religion having its own spiritual practices and beliefs. Some in New Thought prefer to claim they have no beliefs and choose to express their beliefs as "knowing."

It is understood there are many "Wayshowers." The strength of the teaching of a particular Wayshower is demonstrated through the consciousness and actions of the followers of that path. The adherents of each spiritual path are collectively responsible to the rest of humanity and all life to insure that the expression of their path is not abusive or violent nor violates the rights of other beings.

This basic premise of New Thought, that the Divine is Good and Omnipresent is based upon universal spiritual principles as demonstrated and taught by historical figures such as Buddha, Danika, Lao Tzu, and Jesus the Christ. It is understood there are many "Wayshowers." The strength of the teaching of a particular Wayshower is demonstrated through the consciousness and actions of the followers of that path. The adherents of each spiritual path are collectively responsible to the rest of humanity and all life to insure that the expression of their path is not abusive or violent nor violates the rights of other beings.

As mentioned above, New Thought is inclusive and draws on the wisdom of all traditions that teach the truth of our Unity with God/Good and the omnipresence of God/Good.
