I have been sitting in silence as much as possible. I am at work which causes me to stay away from home for over a week or 2 at a time in someone else’s home and they watch the news all damn day so it’s something I’m have in my surroundings 80% of the time I’m here. But I couldn’t care less because I just block it out now I know everything is a choice.
However, I decided to take at least 5 mins every hour to sit in silence (sometimes with the loud ass news in the back ground) and be aware of having no thoughts. Sometimes there are thoughts that don’t want to stop, especially in the morning. But I am the observer/witness of the thoughts so I don’t allow it to bother me.
Anywho… As I have been doing this I have literally had thoughts, visual and verbal and they literally happen the next day.
This has been happening every single day. I’m losing count of the things that are happening. I’ve come to realise the truth that internal imagination and external imagination are literally the same thing. There is no separation. Life is just a very vivid lucid dream on a serious level. It’s no joke.
I have to be aware of what thoughts I’m having as I truly know that they will come to pass. But I’ve decided to relieve any stress of thoughts showing up in the external imagination.
I stay aware of 80-90% of my thoughts and differentiate the thoughts by “labelling” them, “Passing thoughts” and “Experiential thoughts” so that any intruding thoughts of things I don’t want to experience don’t “manifest” into the external imagination because they really will at this point😅.
It’s all very easy and effortless. Sitting in silence is the best feeling ever, there’s nothing better now. And I look forward to what experiential thoughts I experience next.
Also, I always knew time was an illusion, but damn… Time really does what I want it to do. If I become aware that time is going fast, it does. If I become aware that time is going slow or that I want it to go fast or slow, it does. Sometimes 5 minutes feels like 1 minute. 2 hours feels like 15 minutes. (Which is great because it gets me home from work quicker😅)
So above, so below is real. It’s all just awareness. All you will ever need is awareness.
Thought I’d share this because I felt like it.
I shared this as well in an ask last night that I deleted; as I detached everything that came into my awareness — things my friends would talk about that Sofia never had/thought possible experiencing were happening no matter what they were, good or bad — if they were brought into my awareness, they happened. And very quickly just like you said, the same or the next day. At that point I would say a mental "fuck you" to anyone who was in the mood to share negative things 😭
The more I lost the sense of who 'I' was, the more receptive I was to everything. I would exert no effort to make anything happen, (why would I want food poisoning to happen?) but since I listened to my friend (and no, didn't think or contemplate it happening to Sofia) I brought it to "reality".
Lester talks about it too, about driving with his friend once and his friend talking about eye problems and him (even though not even focused because he was tired) gets it right then, he traces the problem back to where it originates (remembers his friend talking about it & him hearing it) and lets it go & his eyes are fine again.
You learn to control it ofc^ until you can only experience what you want. But I'm so happy you shared this as well, last night I deleted mine bc I didn't want people to spiral over every thought coming to fruition 😭😭 YOU CAN FIX IT. If you can demonstrate something, you can also make it vanish. You're never stuck in anything. Everything is thought.
Hello! I’ve been seeing a lot of disinformation lately, and I’ve noticed that some people might need help, so I wanted to chime in. I can shift whenever I want, and I see a LOT of limiting beliefs—but I understand because I was once on the other side.
Disclaimer: This is all based on my personal experience with how I became a master shifter. You’ll want to read everything—it’s important.
I first shifted around March 2022. I would always use methods. I would affirm, tell myself I was detached from this reality, and so on. During my very first shift, I literally affirmed all night long (if this sounds familiar, it’s because I used to have another blog here, lol). You know, really complicated stuff. Then... things changed. I couldn’t shift anymore. I kept using the same methods, but they didn’t work!
That’s when I started questioning everything about shifting and consciousness. Why was it that I could be in another reality where things like magic exist, but then suddenly I couldn’t shift anymore? Why were the methods, like lucid dreaming or the void, seemingly more powerful than the act of switching realities itself? Why, when I shifted from my Desired Reality to my Current Reality, all I needed to do think of my CR to shift back—but it didn’t work the other way around?
None of it made sense! And I’m sure many others have asked themselves these same questions.
I came up with two theories:
This reality has something unique compared to the infinite other realities. To shift from here, you need something extra, like a method.
There’s something else at play, something unrelated to the realities themselves.
I dismissed the first option. There’s nothing inherently special about this reality. So why do we use methods here but not in our DRs?
Then, I thought back to how I used to shift... detaching from my body, affirming until I shifted. It all aligned with my subconscious beliefs. The method didn’t work because that’s how shifting works, but because it made sense to my subconscious. Of course I would shift if I did these things—because that’s what I believed shifting required.
Well... kind of. As I said, it made sense because it aligned with my beliefs. So when the method failed, I wasn’t letting myself shift.
Did you catch that? I didn’t let myself shift. Of course, it wasn’t the method. At what point do you actually shift? Is it when you affirm? Do you really think the universe is just waiting for you to say the right thing enough times before it switches you to your DR?
No. It’s you.
So, you have two choices:
Find a method that truly aligns with your beliefs, or
Change your subconscious beliefs.
Changing your beliefs might seem hard, but I’m going to explain why it’s not as difficult as it feels.
All your life, you’ve had certain beliefs, but those beliefs came from somewhere. You weren’t born thinking you need methods to shift—it’s something that developed over time. Which means it’s not set in stone. It can be changed.
I realized that every reality holds the same weight. There’s NOTHING you can do in this one—no intrusive thoughts or negative emotions—that can stop you. Why? Because those thoughts and emotions are products of this reality. Shifting is simply changing what you’re aware of. That’s literally it. Anything outside of that can’t stop you.
Yes, we’ve all seen those posts saying things like, "Oh, you’re not focused enough" or "You spend too much time on X, Y, Z" or even "You don’t go outside enough" (I legit read this on here—y'all are wildin’). Are you in your DR thinking "Oh, I thought about failing to shift, it means I won't :("? Of course you aren't! But nothing can stop you from shifting. Nothing can stop you from being aware that you are a master shifter.
So, how do you become aware of that?
I started affirming throughout the day. I would tell myself these things:
I’m pure consciousness. I create my reality, and everything around me is just what I choose to perceive.
I’m a master shifter. I don’t need methods. All I need to do is choose to shift, think of my DR, and it happens.
Nothing in the 3D can stop me from shifting, because I’m in the 4D and pure consciousness.
I told myself these things constantly, and I truly understood what I was affirming. What being pure consciousness and being a master shifter actually meant. I stopped using methods. I stopped acting like this reality was special compared to the ones I wanted to be in. And then... it happened.
I shifted. During the day. I simply thought of my DR, told myself, I want to shift, and there I was—in my DR. It happened because, as I said, my subconscious beliefs changed and then manifested in my reality. The same way they did when I believed I needed methods.
Naturally, I stopped using methods. I stopped trying to shift. I no longer thought, Okay, tonight I’m going to shift, and I'm going to use X method. Because that’s not how you think or act when you’re a master shifter. I let go—why would I bother using a method before sleeping when I could just stand up, think about my DR, and be there? Why would I bother doing a method before falling asleep when I knew I'm a master shifter?
I allowed myself to shift. It was me! When people ask, What method did you use? What did you do to shift?—do you really, truly believe it’s the method that makes you shift? Of course you do, because you live in a reality that seems logical, and you apply that logic to shifting. But shifting isn’t logical! It just happens! I have no idea why—it’s literally just magic to me—but that’s how it works.
So, you need to understand: You make it happen. That’s a good thing, right? It means you don’t need methods, and you don’t need to keep searching for “the key.”
Anyway, I hope this helps someone. (Also yes, before you tell me, I know this is basically Law Of Assumption. But I wanted to explain it in more of shifting terms)
(Also if someone wants to post this to another social you have my permission- especially reddit since I was active in that community but I deleted my acc lol)
Edit: Hey guys there are some additional notes in the comments that might be useful!
Hey sweet I was just wondering if you have any tips or tools other than affirmations to try and change beliefs because I struggle really bad with affirmations. No matter how hard I try to internalize them I always just feel like i’m “just saying words to myself” and not actually changing my beliefs. If you had any tips to help Id really appreciate it so much. 🙏🫶
Hey, I think it steems from the the idea that you are "changing your beliefs". You aren't saying affirmations to "change your beliefs". Instead, you're affirming to remind yourself of what you already have. You’re imposing your new, chosen reality onto the present.
One reason many people struggle with this is because they don't have a past experience to anchor their belief, you know, a reference. It can be difficult to trust that you can always wake up in your chosen reality if it feels like it's never happened before or if you've tried and "failed."
If this resonates with you, I recommend practicing revision.
What is revision? Revision is the act of changing something in order to improve or correct it. When we're talking about shifting, the law of assumption, manifestation, or non-dualism, it's important to remember that time itself is malleable, since it is a part of reality.
The point of revising the past isn’t just about altering events; the ultimate goal is to change your current self. Here's the thing: when you constantly look back at every “failed attempt”, whether that’s in shifting, manifesting, or anything else, you reinforce a belief in your mind that you're going to fail because that's the relationship you've built with those experiences, and with shifting itself! (Let me guess, everytime you go and do a method the first thoughts in your head are "I hope I successed this time" or "I hope it works, last time it didn't", rigtht?)
So, revision is not only about correcting the past in your favour; it’s about rewriting your present self, which reflects in your current reality. By changing your past self and your experiences, you change your current mindset and expectations.
But.. how do you become someone who can always wake up in your chosen reality? Someone that can shift whenever and wherever they want? Here’s how you can become a master shifter through revision:
1-Decide who you are and who you want to be. Are you someone who wants to be a master shifter? Do you want to wake up in your choosen reality (DR) every time? Shift with only intention? Decide who you were and, most importantly, who you are.
2-Become that person internally. Remember, the external world doesn’t have the power to change you. It’s your inner self that creates reality, not the other way around. Think of yourself as the foundation of a house: everything that happens, every shift, is built upon you. You are the origin of your experiences.
3-Rewrite your past experiences. From this moment forward, every time you remember a “failed attempt,” you actually succeeded in shifting. It’s easy to think, "I haven’t shifted before, so it won’t happen now". But the truth is, every time you did a method, you opened your eyes, and you did actually shift. The times you thought you didn’t shift were actually moments when you did. It’s just that now, you’re going to apply the same energy and mindset to shift consciously, again and again.
4-Persist in your new reality. The most important part, this is your new truth. Reality works for you, not against you. The idea that you could “fail” is ridiculous because it no longer matches who you are. What about all those times you actually shifted or manifested effortlessly? Exactly. Failure doesn't exist in your new reality because it doesn't align with your new self, it doesn't align with reality itself!
5-Check your dominant thoughts. Whether you realize it or not, you’re always persisting in certain beliefs and assumptions. It’s the same way you’ve been persisting in the old belief that shifting is difficult. Now, use that power to your advantage. Persist in your new belief: that shifting is easy, natural, and something you’re already capable of.
Hi I’m wondering you said this world is an imagination or imaginary, when you realised this how did you approach this world and how did you make “imagination” more real than when ur just daydreaming? Also when you said just be aware of ur dr and in my case I can only do it by visualising, does it get better? What I mean is, will I be fully aware to the point that it becomes physical or does it remain in the “imagination”? I understand when you say about both being imaginary and the same but I just can’t fathom it since when I visualise it’s more blurry and unclear than when I’m seeing here unless ur asking me to practice visualisation skills?
As soon as you see the world as it really is, nothing changes. You “change”. You see through all the illusions that you have created for yourself. The thing is that everything and everyone you see with human eyes is only you. The physical reality and the imagination are all just you. I just gave up the belief that physical reality is anything other than my imagination. There is no practice, there is no programming, just drop it. You'll see it for yourself when you stop thinking the senses are real. You still think that you are a human being who has to do something in order to have something. This is something that will keep you in a loop.
It doesn't matter if it's blurry and unclear, it's about how you approach everything. Are you doing it just to change your physical reality? It all boils down to the fact that you believe you HAVE TO do something in imagination to get something in the physical. You make one more important than the other. Just because the physical is in 4K doesn't mean it's real. The physical is as real as the dream you had last night.
I just discovered non-dualism 3 days ago and I'm struggling to realize that this is natural. I want to get back with my ex-bf but I know he's with another girl right now and that makes me sick... I want to reconcile with him WITHOUT him dating another girl while we're separated. However, I saw physical evidence that contradicts this, and if I ever "succeed," I feel like I've changed something, not that "it was always like this", so it's not "natural" anymore. I don't know what to do.
There is no continuity. You recreate the scenario every day. It can be just as natural that he was never with anyone.

How funny because I went through something similar. Although I never made her disappear I just used her as his incentive to realize nobody could ever be as perfect for him as me and he made the biggest mistake of his life 🤪 the whole thing worked out in my favor; his behavior toward me changed magnitudinally. THIS IS YOUR DREAM. REALIZE THIS.
And if you reaaaally really find it hard to think that she never existed think of what you want her to represent to him.
Also read this on thoughts and be totally indifferent to any thought that arises that he's not absolutely head over heels for you.
And you can check the questions about past/future in the list so you understand why there is no time.
Finally, he was made by you and for you, what are you creating her for? 🤣 you bored like that? You like making yourself suffer? Are you masochistic? Forget her. She never was 😴
Lester Levenson said "you're trying to express infinity through a tiny ego, and it hurts."
Yes it does hurt, it's extremely uncomfortable! And here's why.
Growing up, toddlers are taught object permanence, meaning that whether an object can be sensed or not, it has no impact on it's existence. Before learning this, for example, the toddler's parent may leave the room, and now the toddler is stressed out and crying because now the parent doesn't exist to them. For the toddler, the only things that exists are the items in the room. This is why object permanence is taught, so you can know that things still exist even if you can't sense them with the 5 senses.
See how the 5 senses limit you? Your ego looks around at its surroundings and assumes that it doesn't have whatever it wants, but does it even see the full picture? The ego is stressed out, depressed, angry, whatever negative emotion you can think of, and it becomes like the toddler all over again.
"I can't see it, it doesn't exist!"
How can the ego really know if it doesn't exist? It's view is limited to whatever is directly surrounding it, such as the TV or couch, or whatever is in the same room! When there's a whole world, a whole universe out there that it's unaware of.
When you place so much importance on "seeing things physically" you've identified with ego and not as the limitless, infinite consciousness who already has everything and already is everything! Whatever your ego is experiencing right now is so small and insignificant and is literally ONE possibility out of billions, trillions, an infinite amount.
Are you really going to stress out over 1 in a billion 🤔
hi everyone.
im someone who has entered the void state back when i still created imaginary concepts lol. it was many months ago, my experience was of bright white light, not darkness, and i felt absolute indifference. no love, no peace, no calm. just the biggest unbotheredness? (if that is even a word) of my life, i didn’t care about anything. i didn’t care so much that i didn’t affirm, i was like “im in the void, cool” and just stood in the brightness. i woke up the next day and a lot of things were taken care of. a lot of problems i had were resolved. but it wasn’t enough since i was still living what we now refer to as “vanessa’s life”.
after that, i discovered nondualism. it made a lot of sense to me and i was reading everything 4dbarbie put out every day. i was addicted. at this point, i was exhausted and tired from doing meditations every single night to only succeed once in a blue moon. it was ruining my sleep cycle and ngl... it always felt so forced to do all of that when i didn’t even enjoy meditating. so i switched and decided to give this new concept a try.
what i’ve “manifested”, with intention alone, ever since discovering my Self:
my own house (vanessa was living with her parents)
all the clothes which were saved on vanessa’s pinterest are my new identity’s actual closet
two dogs (wasn’t allowed pets at my parents)
kind, supportive family
older, new identity is an adult and all her assets are in her name
HOW I DID IT:
detached from ego. i realized i was never it and acted on it
during the day i’d ask myself questions like “if i was completely free, what would i think right now?”
chose my favorite thoughts and stuck to them
let go of believing vanessa was real. allowed myself to only think of what i want as real
HOW LONG IT TOOK:
There are changes daily. I say it took like a week to fully settle it in my mind that no character is me, and after that I was free to identify with a new mind and new thoughts. Everything materialized quickly, I wasn’t thinking on it, I knew I had it and just did whatever life made me do during the day. Maybe because I still had some resistance but it happened gradually, not instantly, every day I’d become more abundant.
My best advice is to surrender. It doesn’t happen because you don’t let it happen. Give up trying and allow yourself to believe only what you’re comfortable believing. Also, stop wanting it. It’s a contradiction because you can’t want what you have. Both Lester and Nisargadatta say desirelessness is the highest state.
That’s it, now apply mfs.
Good morning
This was also sent yesterday but I thought I should give some time for everyone to internalize the others before I shared
Made me giggle last night when I read it, thank you <3
hi!! i’m this anon, https://www.tumblr.com/lains-reality/723844364791676928/hi-i-hope-youre-having-a-wonderful-day-youre
about the difficult circumstances :)
i’ve followed your advice, and just rested. whenever i had moments/situations that brought up stress, i began to exercise this feeling of completion/bliss. ever since then, my health has been stabilizing. i took a break from tumblr/over-consuming, and just asked myself “what am i?” “who am i?”. i would let my thoughts go, attaching no meaning, nor identifying with them. i would observe them- in an almost manner of meditation. i started to feel lighter, as i no longer identified with the body. while doing such “exercises”, i found that i “tapped into the void” within minutes of doing so. it was so peaceful, and i had no urge to affirm- which even though my ego thinks my life is still far from perfect, i could care less.
i feel a sort of indifference to what used to seem problematic. i now understand, that there is no “convincing” myself of something, when i am already it. i’ve been “documenting” what works best for me- just because i might have brain damage lol, but what i’ve found is when i am in full acceptance of both the desirable and undesirable, it happens instantly- or within a day. just now, i noticed my collar bone feeling fleshy or the skin around it inflamed- which was one of the major symptoms i faced when i had cancer. my whole collar bone to face just puffed up like a pufferfish. in that moment, i knew who i TRULY was- I AM. God. i didn’t care if my collar bone wasn’t prominent or not- i just KNEW that it was normal, and prominent. literally not even a minute later, i touched my collar bone while scratching my neck- AND THE SWELLING WAS COMPLETELY GONE, IT WAS JUST BONE.
So, for me- what worked was knowing there was no conviction necessary, i am already everything, the good and the bad. thoughts and day dreams have no effect on me unless i identify with them- or personally give them power. no effort, and just complete ease and bliss. the past, and future do not exist- and only affect the present, when identified. indifference was the “biggest” aha moment for me.
I realized, each time I affirmed/thought of something- then let go, and gave it no more attention, it appeared (instantly). for problems, i just forgot of it. i disregarded it- and then bam. gone. since my last experience with the void, i knew since then that everything was perfect with my relationship regarding the void. i always wake up in it, everything perfect for me- i’m aware, blah blah blah. and that’s how it’s “manifested!”. i don’t even think of it any more. ever since that indifference feeling/knowing came- life has been soooo different.
during times of meditation, or of just observing my thoughts and letting them pass- is when i truly began to understand non-dualism. that’s when the knowing came for me. taking accountability and responsibility, and knowing everything is as temporary as night and day. i still have to “fix” my problems with school and university, but i know that is my ego talking. it is already done because i am it. i’m (my ego) is a bit worried if i will properly fix my problems, but after proving what lester, and all the info i’ve consumed (from blog to blog), i truly understand that there is no problem until i think i have a problem. my problems are as an easy fix as my situation with my collar bone.
i’ve also “fixed” my relationship with my mother, and grandparents. they now truly have realized the abuse that is in my household, and are 100% into supporting me, and protecting me. i was so surprised, because they would usually just ignore it and normalize it. especially my mother. all i’ve wanted was my mom- to actually be a mom. and now she is. even though there were moments where my ego wanted to cuss her out and identify as having a bad mother, i thought of it as nonsense, and now our entire dynamic has changed. i can’t really get into it without trauma dumping- but it’s been my wish since i was a child. she has truly changed and grown. even my therapist was shocked, and happy for me! i’ve been trying to “manifest” a change in her, for about 3 years- and after applying little to no effort, through what i’ve mentioned above- everything has changed.
(also “manifested” appearance changes, health to be completely perfect, my safety, perfect grades (literally all A+ or straight up 100%s loll, my pets health, and many other things. literally we all “manifest” our entire day just by identification)
i believe, or what has been true personally to me, about the reason behind the struggle of changing anything- even after seeing confirmation of one’s true power, is because it wasn’t a “big” enough accomplishment. they/me have put problems and “desires” on a pedestal- thinking it will be a varying degree to alter, than let’s say the weather. but it is all the same. everything holds the same balance. it is just the ego that convinces you that it does not. we literally shape our “today” and “tomorrow” from memory and identification. when i’ve thought/knew what my tomorrow would be- that is how it was.
i just wanted to say thank you to your kind response to my ask, last time. i know that it wasn’t easy- and i’m so sorry if i’ve caused anyone to feel any negative emotions. i also wanted to say thank you to your- and every other bloggers dedication to helping anons, and continuously posting the truth. you, and adasdisciple (idk how to do the @ thing, im so sorry!!!) as well as, 4dkelly something (i hope they may see this! i apologize for not remembering your user😭) have aided in ways not even professionals, or other bloggers have. my life has done a true 180- and i know it’s only going to get better from here on out. i appreciate everyone’s kindness to my first post, it truly warmed my heart to see so many people sympathizing with my ask. not many people have reacted with such genuine sweetness. thank you so much!! i’m fr feeling on top of the world 😋
wow! i'm so proud of you!!! speechless tbh!
i'll tag them here for you: @adadisciple, @4dkellysworld
Hi Soph, It's D! :) where do I even start, I've had so many realizations, talking to mySelf. it has been nothing but the best, allowing my true Self to guide me, and not letting this persona block it out, like it has been doing for years now. the best thing I've experienced is, truly relying on mySelf. These are a couple of realizations that I'd like to share: - The characters are here to help YOU (self) experience things, the same way you are choosing this character over and over again you can choose a new one, because you are NOT the character, you’re Self, free from experiencing whatever, not bounded by a persona. - You are Self, there’s no convincing yourself you are it, you have always been it. - The world is an illusion, the people around you; everything - There is no such thing as 'struggling', everyone’s already realized, they just block Self out, well… their persona blocks Self out, to be precise. My advice would be just to surrender, let go, just BE. How has the dream been for you, Soph? sending lots of love your way. :))
Yess just BE 💕💕 everything is perfect already!! You never lack!!!!
My dream has been amazing, very main character-y hehe 😭💘
Thank you for the advice in the name of everyone; happy to hear from you again ♡
You see, when you're yourSelf, before you say anything your work is done. You need not say that you should be successful. You have no idea ... if someone puts the dust of the path upon which you have just walked to their forehead, their wishes are fulfilled. This is not noticed by you. Unless there is full confidence in the awakening of the Self, your concept is futile. If this awakening is there, what is there to be astonished about if some work is done? In due time, the mango tree becomes full of fruits. Similarly, in due time, you are sure to be fully powerful.
However, for now, let it be definite in your mind what you are, and where your attention is focused. Then you become as vast as the universe. You become unlimited and immeasurable. Why should there be any anxiety about whether you, who are God, will get any food or shelter? You will get anything you want. You are the whole world, but wait until that inner conviction becomes strong. Do not be too eager. Wait until your mind, which is only attuned to the Self, becomes itself "The Totality." By devotion to the Self and humility of the ego, unlimited power is attained.
— Nisargadatta's Guru.
This made me think, back on my manifestation journey, I didn't want fulfilled desires as much as I wanted control and power. I wanted it to be WHEN I SAY. I wanted real knowledge and I wanted freedom. I wanted the how, I didn't want any confusion. I wanted to be the decision-maker. I didn't want to get, I wanted to give. I wanted to be powerful enough so that I would never need to get, that I would always be the one to give. I am truly blessed to have been born with a mind intelligent enough to make the right distinctions on this path. Discernment, logic, understanding – those were the ones which truly moved mountains.
