Great post Hernán!

My guess is that you are a teacher. If not, you would make a good one!

Everyone, the checklist Hernán offers us will bring the serious student of SOGR far beyond knowing ABOUT this material. In fact, time spent on these questions in the way that he suggests will quickly bring any student to what I call the "Name-Address-Phone Number" stage of development.

Imagine a test where the hardest questions are:

1. What is your name?
2. What is your address?
3. What is your phone number?

We don't have to THINK of the answers to these questions because they are an IN-BRED part of us. We have lived with the information long enough that it has actually become a part of WHO WE ARE.

TOTAL IMMERSION

The best way to learn a language is to move to a country where NO OTHER LANGUAGE is spoken except the one you wish to learn. Adapt or die. And since we already know what the alternatives are, where's the real choice?

This concept applies just as well to SOGR. Hernán's checklist is a great plan for total immersion.

Get into Hernán's checklist. I guarantee you'll get the most out of SOGR.

Thank you Hernan that is beautiful. I'll add one more thought to that. A VERY IMPORTANT one at that:

Have you impressed your thought upon the formless substance knowing that once you do (and only if you do!) then thing you want is yours.

I'd also add that these are great to turn into POSITIVE THOUGHTS. Here's what I mean. Last week I was reading another book and a thought popped into my mind...what exactly is a thought (lol so a thought I had was asking what a thought was kind of funny).

We hear so much about positive thinking...positive thoughts...well then what exactly is a thought. As I continued reading the book, a few paragraphs down the author said "here's a THOUGHT to think about." An Aha! moment occured. I'd read the book half a dozen times or so but never did that occur to me. A thought is just what we repeat to ourselves verbally or visually. Hope that makes sense.

So let's turn your short version into positive thoughts:

1. I meditate upon the principles laid down by Mr. Wattles in the Science of Getting Rich. I am grateful that he has shared his ideas with us thus giving more life to all.

2 (a). Knowing that "it is my Father's pleasure to give me the kingdom" I have formed a clear and definite mental picture of what I want to have, be, or do. Realizing that Thinking Substance knows all, I am at ease knowing that since I am in the Way Of Advance even my mental picture will become even more clear as I proceed with faith and gratitude.

2 (b). With reverent gratitude I have impressed my thoughts to the Formless Substance knowing that my desire to have, be, or do is in harmony with the desire for Formless Substance to completely express itself through me.

2 (c). I am thankful that what I want is already mine because it pleases Thinking Substance to give me the kingdom. Therefore I have entered into the full enjoyment of the thing I want and I cast aside any doubts to the contrary.

3. I spend my leisure time in contemplating the mental vision of what I want to be, have, or do. With the full realization that since I have already impressed my thought to the formless substance the thing I want is ALREADY mine, therefore I know there is no need for me to do as the heathens do and continue to ask God for what I want...THINKING SUBSTANCE already knows what I need...it knows all...it has seen beauties far greater than I have...so I realize that the mental contemplaion is only for my benefit...only to keep me focused on doing my part with faith and gratitude.

4. I have an invincible Faith that the thing I want is already mine because I know that my desire for possession of riches is one with the desire for Omnipotence for more and complete expression through me.

5. My gratitude is strong and constant not only for the visible things which I see around me but also for the INVISIBLE SUPPLY which Thinking Substance has set aside for me and is now bringing to me.

6. I know every one of my act is strong and efficient (effective) because ALL POWER is working through me. I KNOW Thinking Substance is working through me because I have impressed the thought of having Thinking Substance working through me therefore I know it is My Father who is making each and every one of my act strong and effective.

7. I give MORE to each and every person I deal with because I know the desire for MORE LIFE is inherent in all nature, it is the fundamental impulse of the universe. I know that All things are made from Original Substance and by giving MORE to each and every person I know I am giving MORE AND MORE to THINKING SUBSTANCE.


These might be a bit long for affimations lol but you get the idea. Feel free to post revisions of some of these things. As we revise them they will get even better and better.

that is so great! A list of questions to live in a certain way!

Much blessings

Thanks chaps - this is a really useful and interesting thread!
Merry Christmas to you and yours
Jan

Hernán-

Thank you for the list. I'm going to print it out and put it above my computer as a daily checklist to start off each day in the right frame of mind (and as a reminder if I feel myself getting off track).

WORDS > THOUGHTS > FEELINGS

Thoughts are made up of words in our head. If we try to eliminate Don't | Not | No from our vocabulary, it will be easier to eliminate negative attraction. When we use these words we are actually internalizing in our minds the exact thing that we are being taught not to think. I an "NOT" rich today = I will be rich someday. This helps keep us on the POSITIVE plane with good vibrations and in our CMI's. The LOA responds the same way your mind does: it hears what you "DON'T" want.
