This reality is set for expansion, growth, and experience. I think it's a little boring. But everyone lives as they understand and feel in the moment. All is good :)

    Absolutely, intention can move mountains. Everything is energy and subconsciously we broadcast our intentions out into the world and the world cannot help but to subconsciously pick up on our intentions and treat us in accordance.
    The solution as always is to become present and allow the subconscious to become conscious, then the dynamic and interplay of energy becomes revealed and a whole new reality opens up to you, a reality where you become a conscious creator rather than a victim of circumstances created by your own unresolved subconscious shadows.. like the example of the tennis player who signs up for tournaments just to receive approval from his dad..

    When you described Michelle's friend who approached helping her move with the intention of making Michelle indebted to her, I felt SO SEEN. My fiance and I have a friend who did the exact same thing - different circumstances. I remember her acting like by her agreeing to what she did that we'd apparently agreed to an entire other set of stipulations...like we'd unknowingly signed a contract. Turns out she just did what she did "for us" so she could then use our "indebtedness to her" later on. We didn't buckle. So happy that we didn't.

    One Moroccan proverb I must share from my kingdom’s cultural riches. « Just have faith and you can sleep with a viper( and not be hurt », which is perfect in relationships, the other person man or woman regardless could have some wicked plans to why they want either enter your life or lure you in theirs. However if your intentions are of the outmost pristine substance intention can be made of , then you have brought to bed intentions made of a substance not even a viper could sully.

    I have deep admiration for Teal's mindfulness, curiosity, and passion for truth and understanding. So it gives me a sense of pride to discover she found the importance in understanding something I was drawn too as well.
    "Actions speak louder than words," was a favorite quote growing up. When I became an adult, I realized that it's the intention, not the action to focus on. My application is different than Teal's, but the same conclusion; its the intention that tells you about a person, not their actions.

    I feel like intention is the second step in manifesting, the first step would be your vibration.
    If you vibrate low, you will have an intention that haves some kind of resistance, and that resistance will manifest a negative outcome.
    If you vibrate high, you will have an intention with positive focus, and that positive focus will manifest a positive outcome.

  • @marialeina5866

    I believe this 100% and also that intention is not something "invisible" to others. With our subconscious or with our instinct, not sure with what, but we all catch anothers intention. Hence "something doesn't sit right " about someone. Or "something sits right" , not to be negative 😊

    The teachings of Hui Neng are useful: where you're coming from will determine where you end up. This is a gross and crude interpretation, as most are, but Hui Neng's reflections on the sutras are so interesting because he wasn't educated, or learned, and had an innate sense of right mindfulness, which leads to right thinking, leads to right speech, action, and consequences. The most luminous insights are those before he even got into the temple!

    Intentions are always conscious for any intention to be clear. If not clear about what you attempt to do whether unconscious or conscious/confused there is no intent. There is no compass guiding behavior consistent to the priority outcome course correcting as state changes with the target outcome focused toward resolving actions to the current step of the plan of actions options leading to the target realized as the unknown

  • @earth-air-water-fire-aether

    If there was some things that helped me understanding something at a young age, was fitness (pushing the limits of mind), (weightlifting pushing the limits of body), it wouldn't have happened without intentions, that was very good for my soul or spirit. Rugby also taught me about a philosophy in life, that also helped me a lot early in life and having strong foundations, boundaries and "kicking goals".
    I think that's why I find Teal hilarious, with her quirks (that's just how I look at people in general in my life and internet), intelligence is what I seek in man and woman, and it's riveting to surround myself in, and is very likened to doing "sets" or circuits that have me on a high giggling walking up and down between those or talking to people speaking something that's factual or truthful.

    People are by nature hypocritical. Our intention, in most cases, is to show the outside world who we are not. As Teal has done in another video, to get anything done, you need discipline. An intention on its own is never enough, you need an iron will to make that intention happen and stick to it. An intention means nothing, they are just words. You actually have to do the work and most of us are lazy. We want it all but don't want to do anything for it.
