Flashlight of Manifestation

posted in: Philosophy | 0

I was on a quest for a perfect lunch today, waiting to enter traffic at an intersection; a truck passed. Ohhh Ominous! But! on the truck there was an equipment share logo. Flash backs rushed me, of a time when me and some others were working on a new innovation for equipment tracking and usage collecting. Very similar to equipment share. We have been researching the idea for some time and still might launch a product, so I can’t say much. However, what I want to share is not about the product, it is about the experience when we were researching that highlights manifestation.

Modern society is inoculated with advertisements and subconscious manipulation by marketing. We see things daily for things we search, and I believe the formulas by marketing agencies somewhat reflect our own subconscious manifestation capabilities. Many people have heard about “The Secret”  by  Rhonda Byrne, where our thoughts are what attract events, and things in our life. Over the years, I have been a firm believer in this as it has routinely happened to me. Our thoughts make our worlds.

So, when I started seeing competitors pop up, vehicles that use similar tech, conversations around me being centered on the topic of technology and tracking in a incidental manner to what we were making, it was a bunch of flags in my face. This was life for a long time, which is a recurring theme in my life. Its very similar to the phenomenon that if you want a certain car you see that car everywhere, where before you desired it was seldom seen.

Ultimately, what i think it comes down to was my world was manifesting these things around me, and I was more aware of them due to my involvement in the project. It is arguable that these things are happening all the time and my concious mind was just being drawn too them now and I would counter with the trends ebb and flow is too synchronistic to be pure coincidence. If that was the case, simple extrapolation and exploration would render the hypothesis that “All things are happening at once all the time” very plausible. Which would reaffirm my theory, that our consciousness is a flashlight of manifestation.

As if a flash light cast a spotlight on a wall of a dark room, and there in the now dimly light darkness a new universe was born and grows, through imagery on the wall (mind). It surprises me how deep the rabbit hole of an interest or idea goes until i put my focus on it. Historically, I am drawn to things that people don’t really like, do or pay attention too. I enjoy being in the shadows of main stream ideas and usually cast hobbies or interest aside once they become “too popular”.

As soon as the spark of interest ignites, there is an influx of other participants in the idea and they appear often to have always been there, as if the universe has now changed around us. Arguably, and probably more logically, we can say the size of the population of the world. The diversity of ideas and dense compaction of modern world, it is likely we all are in proximity to these common themes that we “think” are unique. I, however, like the mystery of a flashlight of manifestation.

What are your thoughts?
