Chapter 1 - A More Effective

Definition of Manifestations
Most books on manifestation and reality creation emphasize outer-directed actions
and steps to ask for what you want. If only
youll do these steps in the right order as described then youll get this! Indeed, a
quick browsing of titles on any bookstore
shelf (or online catalog) will show you that
there is no shortage of books wanting to
show you physical methods that claim to materialize your desires and attract greater
good into your life. All is well and good, but
all this brings about several unanswered
questions: What do we do during the rest of
our time when we are not using these techniques? Are we supposed to use these manifestation techniques and state our intentions
/ desires over-and-over again? Or are we

5/159

supposed to do them just once, as is often

suggested? What do we do with the 95% (or
possibly more) of our time when we are not
actively stating our desires, visualizing, writing affirmations, meditating, praying, or engaged in some esoteric technique What do
we do during the times in between?
It turns out that the answer to this
question holds the keys to successful and effective manifestations. In fact, it makes all of
the difference, and is responsible for most of
your day-to-day results. Even I am surprised,
looking back, that I did not realize this profound truth earlier because I too, like many
others, have also fallen into the trap of focusing on outer-directed rituals that one can
take to manifest our desires. What I realize
today after more than a decade of doing this
work is that all the active manifestation techniques we practice constitute only a very
small portion of our waking hours. I

6/159

calculated that even if we meditated or engaged in active visualization three times a

day for fifteen minutes each time, it still only
works out to be a measly 3% of our day.
Three percent! And most people I know
dont even actively state their intentions or
visualize for that long every single day.
Is it any wonder that these manifestation techniques often do not produce desired
results for most people? It is not because
these techniques do not work, but because
their effects are being overridden by what
most of us do during the remaining portion
of our time. And so this is the premise of the
book youre holding in your hands right now.
Using a concept which I call the 95-5 (nine
five five) code, I explain and address the fundamental question of what you should do
during the intervening periods the time in
between that can make all the difference.

7/159

Perhaps it is apt to start off here with

an explanation of what manifestation really
means. Over the years, I have heard various
definitions and explanations of manifestation, ranging from the practical to downright esoteric. None of these definitions have
really stuck with me, because to me, manifestation is such a central concept that is intertwined with the core of our being. It is indefinable. It is literally who we are. As creative beings, we cannot be separate from the
concept of manifestation, and of bringing
things into being. Therefore, understand that
you dont even have to know what manifestation means or is in order to tap into these
powerful Universal Laws. I define manifestation (in its simplest form) as bringing
something which you want into physical
form, from its non-physical form. At its most
fundamental level, manifestations are about
bringing what you want into form, by deliberately aligning yourself with the feelings,

8/159

thoughts and emotions that match what you

physically want. Youll find that this definition is in line with what a lot of spiritual
teachers teach Which is that in order to
create something in your life, you first have
to become the thing. You have to resonate
with it, and be one with it. You must think
thoughts and feelings that are in line with
the desired outcome that you want. That is
the essence of manifestation.
I would also like to add that the manifestations we are talking about here are deliberate manifestations. In other words, we
are concerned with the usage and application
of these Universal Laws to bring about desired conditions into our lives. We are not interested in unconscious manifestations, or
unconscious creations, which may sometimes bring us our deepest fears instead of
our deepest desires! Therefore, much of effective manifestations comes from applying

9/159

these Universal principles in the right way,

such that we bring about our greatest good
into our lives instead of having to spend
time undoing our unwanted manifestations.
Youll be surprised at how effective some
individuals are as manifestors, except that
they are constantly bringing in unwanted
stuff into their lives! They then have to use
lots of mental and physical energy to correct
these physical conditions after they have
manifested. This leads to a lot of unnecessary
time and energy spent, not to mention
heartache and disappointments.
The New Year is just round the corner
as I write these words, and as we enter a
whole new season I am inspired to share a
new understanding of manifestations with
everyone. This understanding is closer to our
hearts, and I feel it is also more relevant and
easily applicable than previous definitions. It
is this: Effective manifestations are about

10/159

getting past blind-spots in our own thinking.

How incredibly simple and apt! The first
time this definition came to me as I was going about my day I was amazed by the simplicity and truth of what the Universe had
just presented me with Effective manifestations in our lives are nothing more than getting past blind-spots in our own thinking!
I was then inspired to think back to
several episodes in my life, and I realized
that it was exactly what happened in each of
those episodes that led to successful manifestations. Each time I asked for something, I
often did not believe it could come to me or
I would be worried over when and how my
desires would be fulfilled. All of this erroneous thinking went on for the longest time.
I did not realize it back then, but I realize
today with profound clarity that they were
simply blind-spots in my OWN thinking!
Not blind-spots in anyone elses thinking

11/159

because no one was withholding my good

from me. Not blind-spots in the Universes
perception because the Universal always
has a complete, whole, and perfect picture of
our good in full view. But simply blind-spots
in my own thinking. I had not allowed
myself to think that it was possible to have
what I asked for. For example, when I asked
for a luxury car, I did not think it was possible because I used a lack of money as an excuse, or the excuse that the bank would not
grant me a loan. That was nothing more than
a blind-spot in my own thinking. Similarly,
with many other desires in my life, I was
constantly worried over whether they would
be delivered. My blind-spot in my own thinking had prevented me from trusting and having faith in the Universe, that what I wanted
would be delivered in the most perfect way
possible in its most perfect time.

12/159

Today, as I write these words, I realize

that manifestations are simple! There is
nothing mysterious or magical about them.
Everything has been laid out in plain sight all
along, expounded by ancient (and modern)
spiritual masters using different words over
the ages. These spiritual masters have been
trying to drive home these spiritual truths
time and time again, through the use of parables, shock techniques (!), humor, jargon,
scientific explanations You name it, they
have used it. Almost every single technique
has been applied with the sole purpose of
helping us get past blind-spots in our own
thinking. Once you are able to get past those
blind-spots in your thinking no matter
what methods you use, the manifestations
will appear almost instantaneously that
youll be surprised by the speed and precision of it all!

13/159

For many years I wanted a luxury car. I

asked and asked for the longest time, five
years in fact, and it did not come to me.
Everything stayed the same externally on the
outside. I was doing all the outer-directed
rituals I could possibly be engaged in, from
meditations to very vivid visualizations complete with emotions, sounds, mantras and
imagined actions! I was visualizing and doing everything as taught yet I did not understand that my actions, no matter how frequently or fervently I engaged in them, constituted only a very small portion of my waking hours. Even in those days when I was intensely focused on my desires, I estimate
that I spent no more than 5% of my waking
hours intently focused on my desires. It is
rather difficult in this modern day and age to
be thinking about our desires all the time
and to engage in outer-directed actions to
attract them all the time, as we have dayjobs and other responsibilities to attend to.

14/159

And no, thinking about them all the time and

spending all our time visualizing is not the
answer either, as Ill explain in the later part
of this book.
Despite the fact that I was spending
lots of energy / emotions visualizing and
thinking about what I wanted, I still had not
allowed myself to get past the blind-spots in
my own thinking. I did not manage to think
past those blind-spots. Two of which I still
remember quite clearly now: First, I did not
think I could have enough money to afford
the car. I did not think I could afford it. And
second, I did not think I deserved to drive
such a nice car. How I came to believe in
those unresourceful beliefs is not the issue
here, because that is not the key to effective
manifestations. What is key to any manifestation is how we think past (or around)
those blind-spots. The moment we successfully do so, the manifestations will happen

15/159

very fast! This means to say that the moment

I could allow myself to think in a way that I
could afford the car, or that I deserved to
own that car then physical reality had to
match up to my new way of thinking almost
immediately.
Thats probably the simplest and the
most effective way to explain the entire art of
manifestation. Manifestation is nothing
more complicated than identifying the road
blocks, the blind-spots in our own thinking
which we have been unable to get past no
matter what and then finding creative ways
such that we can now think around these
blind-spots. In other words, whereas previously I was unable to see a way which I could
afford the car financially the moment I allowed myself to see how I could afford it
(even though it was only a thought and
nothing manifested in reality yet) then my
physical reality matched up with my new

16/159

understanding very quickly. The longer I allowed myself to stay stuck with that stuck
thinking and roadblock in my mind the
longer I harped on the fact that I cannot afford the car, that was how my reality responded as well. At the end of the day, it is
all in our own thinking. It is all in our own
inner world and state as I have explained
time and time again, and there are no exceptions. Get past these roadblocks in your own
thinking in whatever creative ways you can
and the outer manifestations will happen
really quickly for you.
This has been the case for me, timeand-time again. In the case of manifesting
that luxury car, I finally got to a place where
I allowed myself to think (or see in my
minds eye), even just for a moment a possibility through which the money could come
to me. That was all that was needed. Now notice that this does not have to be the eventual

17/159

actual way in which the money came to me,

neither does it have to be rooted in existing
physical reality at that time. All I had to do
was to create a possibility inside of myself,
an opening in my mind of sorts, that this was
somewhat possible. All I did was to create
the remote possibility in my own thinking,
my own imagination, that allowed me to get
rid of the excuses and self-imposed limitations I have previously been using. Once I
did that, I was swept along by the physical
flow of things and just took one logical step
after another, culminating in the final
manifestation.
That is manifestation explained in the
simplest words and terms possible. I now
realize today that there is nothing grandiose
or earth-shaking about manifestations. You
do not have to recite mantras or part seas
and move mountains. All it takes for
something to manifest is to get past the

18/159

roadblocks and blind-spots of your own

thinking on the inside! You DO need to move
your own inner mountains and part your
own inner seas. You do need to create perceptual changes within yourself and allow
yourself to get past previously stuck points in
your own thinking. We all have these stuck
points in the form of negative beliefs or
thought patterns. The faster you are able to
get past these stuck points and overcome
them, the more pleasing your outer reality
will be to you. And the faster these manifestations will happen. Until one day, you finally
reach a point where you do not have to consciously ask for stuff anymore, and the
things you want will still keep happening for
you.
When you get there in time, it will be
done. This is the powerful premise we will be
exploring together in this book.

19/159

Chapter 2 - Working With

Manifestation Stuck Points
The moment you understand that
manifestations have absolutely nothing to do
with what is happening on the outside, and
have everything to do with what happens on
the inside, you gain a newfound sense of
freedom and profound clarity.
Most individuals who are stuck with
their manifestations perceive something on
the outside as stopping whatever they want
from coming to them. They say, I cant have
this because I cannot afford it. Their not
being able to afford it then becomes an actual manifestation block as to why something
cannot happen for them. Ironically, it is also
these individuals who ask for things the
hardest by using various manifestations

21/159

techniques and hacks. The mistake they

are making is in trying to transcend
whatever outer difficulties they perceive
through the desperate and repeated fervent
use of these techniques. This is not the way
in which deliberate manifestations work.
Once you are able to understand this
key piece of information, youll gain the
much-needed clarity in your manifestation
process. In my old days, I was trying to make
up for all the outer deficiencies I perceived
through the repeated usage of these manifestation techniques. I was hoping to manifest in spite of them, while continuing to believe in those limitations. Because I perceived that I could not possibly afford what I
was asking for, I could only hope that it
would come to me (somewhat miraculously)
through the use of these manifestation techniques! Hence I was trying to ask for the
seeming impossible through the use of all

22/159

these techniques and the Universe did not

seem to respond.
Again, is it any wonder that the Universe did not respond to my desperate requests at all? Here I was, seeing something
as impossible for me through the usual
routes and then desperately putting my desires out there through all these means so
they could come in other equally
impossible ways! I chuckle a little just
thinking about it now and even find it a bit
amusing, because I was trapped in the prison
of my own thinking without even realizing it.
I was setting myself up for repeated failures
and disappointments! But I also understand
that it is certainly no laughing matter if your
desires do not come to you even after several
years of asking. I was there once too. With
each passing new year, I would say excitedly
to myself, Perhaps this is the year which
things will finally change! Even that was a

23/159

fallacy in itself, because I was hoping that

something external the passing of a new
year, would somehow (and automatically)
bring about the much-needed change within
myself! Thus you can see how someone who
repeatedly fails to get tangible results
through manifestations sets themselves up
for more disappointments and limited
thinking.
Are you trying to manifest something
while holding on to all your perceived beliefs
on why you cannot have them? If so, that is a
major part of the issue that is holding your
manifestations up.
The Universe is always knocking on
our door, trying to give us greater good. This
is a concept which has been expounded overand-over again by classical New Thought authors like the great Florence Scovel Shinn. I
was so taken away by her lucidity in writing

24/159

that I felt inspired to update her classic book,

The Magic Path of Intuition, for the modern
reader. One thing that made a strong impression on me from that book (and the reason why I decided to rewrite it back then) was
how we were essentially delivering the same
message in different ways. Each of us have
reached the same place of understanding
through different paths, which converged at
the end of the day.
At the start, the good that the Universe delivers to you will not be in terms of
outer physical manifestations! They may be
something even subtler, and often dismissed
or missed by most people. In the beginning,
your good will come in the form of subtle
shifts in perception. Whereas previously you
felt hung up over something, you now feel
okay and alright about it. That is the first
sign (and in fact the surest indicator) that
your physical good is on its way. A change in

25/159

the way you feel inside about things that

tripped you up previously is a surefire indicator that things are happening on the
outside.
I have a book from spiritual author
Richard Bach on my desk. It is titled the
Messiahs Handbook Reminders for the
Advanced Soul. Notwithstanding its grandiose title, it is actually a fun answers book.
Have you ever visited the bookstore as a
child and went to one of those answer
books which claimed to be able to answer
whatever question you had flipping the book
to any page? The Messiahs Handbook goes
along the same vein, and it is actually a
book from a book. The protagonist in
Richard Bachs novel Illusions had a similarly titled book that seemed to give profound
answers when flipped to any page, and this
book was released following the popularity of
that story.

26/159

Since I am always looking for fun ways

to deepen my understanding of Universal
Laws, I purchased this book from a book
and started asking it questions. For the
longest time, whatever question I asked always had me flip open to the same page. This
frustrated me a little, since I could never understand why I always ended up on that page
which had little relevance to the question I
was asking! Let me first give you the message
from that page, before discussing its significance. This is the page I always flipped to, and
it reads: Its a slow process, changing principles, and youll never know that theyve
changed until something that used to be
right just doesnt feel that way any more.
And so that drove me a bit crazy, because what does changing principles have to
do with the questions I was asking? I was
asking about delays in my manifestation!

27/159

And then a long time later after I had all

these realizations it finally dawned on me.
I was dumbstruck when I realized the significance of that message all along. It was actually relevant. What the message was trying to
say, was that I had to get past the stuck
points in my own perception, and that I
would never know that I have gotten over
them until something that used to be right
just doesnt feel that way any more. On another level, it also speaks of our negative
tendencies and habits. For example, worrying used to feel so natural and right to me in
the past, but it does not feel that way for me
any more.
(Note: Before you rush out to get the
book in order to ask various questions, know
that doing so will be falling into the realm of
superstition. There is no one book that can
predict the future, simply because the future
is malleable and not cast in stone. In other

28/159

words, you have the power to change any future outcome from your now moment.
Most people like to ask questions about the
future because we always like a bit more assurance / control over how things will turn
out, without realizing that the things and
events that are lined up can often be
changed! What the book serves as is a possibility playbook for our unconscious. Since
the divine and our higher self is always trying to send us messages which we may not
easily pick up on, books / techniques like this
allow a channel through which such messages can get through to us, by offering a
reference point by which we can frame and
interpret the messages. In other words, by
reading a passage which is open to interpretation, the words set us thinking in a particular direction, eventually leading to a realization. Otherwise, we would not even be thinking in that direction in the first place.)

29/159

And so the answer which I was looking

for has always been in plain view all along!
The answer which I needed, and which many
others struggling with their manifestations
need, is a way to deal with these inner stuck
points about the various intentions and experiences they are trying to manifest. It is of
no use letting all these stuck points remain
in our consciousness, while using heaps of
manifestation or positive thinking techniques to cover them up on the outside. Doing so would be like piping lots of cream on a
spoiled cake! What you need to do is to deal
with the cake itself. The cake is the foundation of everything, and makes all the difference in the world. The cream is just the proverbial cherry on top of the cake.
Let me explain in greater detail what I
mean by manifestation stuck points. There is
a subtle difference between manifestation
stuck points and limiting beliefs. I will use

30/159

examples from various scenarios (some of

which I have observed in other individuals)
to illustrate my point, so youll quickly become aware of how to spot stuck points when
they occur. Stuck points are the things that
trip up and delay any manifestations. In other words, the longer you allow these stuck
points to remain, the longer you are going to
be without your manifestations!
The first example Ill use is one related
to health and well-being. On some mornings,
I would wake up with a runny nose (possibly
due to some allergic reaction) that went on
for almost half a day. My reaction to my
runny nose was to pop an anti-allergy tablet,
which resolved my allergic symptoms in
about half an hour. And so each time I woke
up with a runny nose, I would pop a tablet
and the symptoms would be gone.

31/159

One morning, I realized that I had run

out of these tablets and so my nose continued to run throughout the day! Those of you
who have been through this experience will
know that it can totally spoil your day, especially if you have to keep blowing your nose
while doing your other chores! Since I had
been an avid student of all these spiritual
healing techniques, I decided to try a few of
them on my nose but nothing worked! In
this case, the intention I set was to have a
clear nose, but no matter what manifestation
technique I used, I still continued to feel as
bad.
Now this is obviously not a book about
how to treat medical illnesses or even diagnose any of them. I am merely using this
example to illustrate how to treat manifestation stuck points. What do you think was the
stuck point here that prevented my manifestation from working? I usually get what I ask

32/159

for quickly, so it was a surprise to me that

this did not work. Whats happening here?
I did not realize what the manifestation stuck point was until I had this recur a
few times over the next few weeks. I still had
not found the time to get more anti-allergy
tablets from the drugstore, but I am glad
things turned out the way they did because it
taught me an important lesson out of this experience! Once again, I am not asking that
you skip medication or use these techniques
to diagnose any illness, so please do not attempt to do so. I am merely citing this example to show you that Universal principles
apply in all circumstances.
One morning, it finally dawned on me
that my stuck point for this particular manifestation was: I cannot get my nose to stop
running without eating the anti-allergy medication! Wow! What a powerful realization

33/159

it was! And while I had not vocalized or

uttered those words before, it was an innate
belief which I steadfastly held. In other
words, a stuck point is a reason why we cannot have whatever it is that we want. In this
case, the stuck point (which is actually stuck
energy) was so subtle I had come to see the
anti-allergy pill as the only way in which I
could get better and clear up my nose!
I am bringing this example up for a few
reasons. First to deliberately show you that
manifestation stuck points occur in every
kind of manifestations physical and nonphysical. In this case, I wasnt asking for a
physical object or a particular sum of money.
I was instead asking for my nose to be restored to its usual state. Second, it is to illustrate that these Universal principles can truly
apply under any and all circumstances.

34/159

Once I identified the stuck point, I set

out to see how I could gently overcome it. Although I use the word overcome, what I
really mean is how we can think around it.
Once you are able to think around, to be not
tripped up by a stuck point which previously
tripped you up the outer manifestations
will happen very quickly! So lets take a
closer look at what happened to me here: I
wanted my nose to be clear. I asked for it to
be clear. But I was stuck on my thinking because the only way for my nose to be clear
was by using the anti-allergy tablet. Therefore this tripped me up every single time I
stated an intention for my nose to be clear!
Now heres where it starts to get a little
crazy but it is so fun and it contains the entire KEY to successful manifestations. The
key is this It does not matter how you
get past your manifestation stuck points, as
long as you get past them. In other words, it

35/159

does not matter how you think around them,

as long as you think around them. You can
think around them in some pretty crazy
ways. Whatever works is whatever works
for you!
I had just read an excellent book by Dr.
Joe Dispenza, titled You Are The Placebo.
In it, Dr. Dispenza cited medical studies in
which individuals who had taken a medication for a while could actually synthesize the
same chemical compounds in their bodies,
even after they stopped taking the drug!
Reading Joes book lay the foundation for me
and was the first step towards getting past
my manifestation stuck point. I then decided
to try something fun. Since I always ate my
Clarinase tablets and they worked, I figured
that my body would know how to synthesize
the exact same compounds. What I did was
to go into a deep state of relaxation and intend Clarinase 500mg to myself, while

36/159

feeling the feelings of having just ingested

that tablet! Within the hour, my runny nose
symptoms stopped. The desired outcome
had occurred.
Once again for the third time, I must
remind you that I am NOT advocating that
you stop any medication. All I am doing is
sharing with you the lessons contained in
this very valuable experience. What I did
when I intended and acted as if I consumed
the tablet was to get past my own manifestation stuck point that I had to eat the
tablet in order to get better. Therefore, the
method which I devised to think around that
stuck point was to pretend I had eaten the
tablet, and then rely on the placebo effect to
chemically synthesize those compounds in
myself. Did I really synthesize those compounds in myself when I intended it? I
wouldnt know. But that is not important at
all. Whats important is that I overcame

37/159

my own stuck point by giving myself an

alternative possibility that it was possible
to get the same benefits of the drug without
having to ingest the physical tablet. Once you
are able to get past any manifestation stuck
points on the inside, it is done!
Do you see why I am so excited about
sharing this technique with you? I think my
example above is testament that it works,
even in a perceived challenging situation.
Manifesting a desired well-being outcome is
not like manifesting a physical object, so I
deliberately used this example to show you
how these principles can apply, even under
such circumstances. Understand that my
nose cleared up not because I had synthesized those compounds within my body
(whether it actually did is not important, although Dr. Dispenza would support this
view), but because I had allowed myself to
get past a major mental hurdle that was

38/159

standing between myself and my desired

outcome.
Herein also lies the difference between
thinking around a manifestation stuck point,
and believing in something. Both are not
exactly the same. When you try to believe
in something, you are usually doing it in a
forceful manner. In the earlier example, believing that my body was really producing
the chemical compounds was not the key. I
did not have to believe in it. The belief was
optional. I did not deliberately and forcefully
make myself believe in something that I had
a difficult time believing in. All I did, and
this is the difference between the two, was to
show my mind an alternative possibility to
think around the stuck point. It does not
matter whether that alternative possibility is
true or otherwise.

39/159

Alright, now let us look at another example that is more similar to a conventional
manifestation scenario. Ill use an example
about finances, since this is close to our
hearts. My friend Mark always had a fixed
idea about how much his income would be.
Since he traded hours for dollars as a coach,
he could never see his income exceed a certain point once he had filled up all his slots
with clients. His manifestation stuck point
was: My income can never exceed a certain
level since I have a limited number of hours
each week.
Many of these manifestation stuck
points seem perfectly logical to a person.
That is why we continue to be tripped by
them on the inside, oftentimes for years on
end! Think about my earlier example of how
I needed my anti-allergy medications to get
better. That was certainly a very logical, scientific thought! Therefore, the reality that

40/159

followed was that without my medications,

my condition would not improve! I am not
asking that you stop believing in whatever
manifestation stuck points. All you need to
do is to allow yourself to conceive of an alternative possibility.
Since I had done a fair share of business consulting, I could immediately see
Marks manifestation stuck points. I pointed
out to him that if he opened up to the possibility of doing group coaching instead of individual coaching, he could now make more
money per hour than before. Mark had not
considered this possibility before, and what
my words did was to allow him to get past
his previous stuck point. Notice that my
words were all that was necessary. All we
need to do is to plant that seed in our consciousness, and our consciousness takes over
from there. The moment we get past our previous stuck points, we are immediately

41/159

elevated to higher levels of understanding

and consciousness. That is all that is
necessary.
Notice that I did not even tell Mark
how to get additional coaching clients, or
how to pack more clients into one slot. All I
told him was he could do it. It was something
he could consider. Thats all that is needed!
The technicalities and the how-tos are not
important in the grand scheme of things!
Once you see the possibilities, your mind can
achieve anything. You are no longer stuck or
blocked.
Within one month after planting this
seed in Marks consciousness, he went from
a four-figure to a five-figure monthly income.
What happened? He had allowed himself to
get past his previous manifestation stuck
point. He had spent so much time and energy reinforcing and showing himself why

42/159

his monthly income was fixed at a particular

level in the past. My words showed him that
an alternate reality was possible, and that is
all that was needed.
Are you starting to get excited now too
at the possibilities? No matter what manifestations you have been asking for in the
past, and no matter how long in coming they
have been for you all that does not matter
and never mattered in the first place. Stop
trying to find outer-directed steps and actions you should take to fulfil your desires.
Give up the need to try any outer-directed
actions, techniques or steps to force your
manifestations into being. Instead, start by
identifying the inner stuck points that are
holding you up on the inside.
In my previous two examples, there
was only one major stuck point holding up
each manifestation. Therefore, when we

43/159

managed to think around these stuck points,

the manifestations came almost instantly! In
some other cases, there may be several stuck
points holding the manifestation up which
you need to identify and work on. In those
cases, we would need to work around each
stuck point until we are no longer stuck on
any of them. Once you have managed to
overcome most of the stuck points surrounding an intention, youll find yourself propelled almost magically in the direction of
that desire. But it is not magic, it is Law.

Chapter 3 - Seeing Through

The Eyes of the Universe
Some readers may be amazed by the
fact that by making a few simple inner
changes, outer reality matches up perfectly
and delivers what you want, every single
time. But this is really all that is necessary
for outer manifestations to take place. Give
up the need to engage in more convoluted,
forceful or desperate outer-directed actions.
Give up the need to search and look for more
advanced techniques! There is nothing more
advanced than the subtle inner work which
one can do, and it is always this inner work
which is the most advanced because so
few people ever take the time and effort to do
them. We are always looking for outer mantras, chants and even magical steps to take
that make it seem as if lots of things are

45/159

happening when in actual fact, the sole

purpose of all those outer-directed steps is to
convince us that something is happening on
the inside. The whole purpose of various
outer-directed techniques is to help an individual get past his own manifestation stuck
points.
Once you have successfully worked /
thought around your inner manifestation
stuck points, it does not mean that your desires will come to you through the manner
specified. Let me explain using the previous
example. When Mark successfully thought
around the manifestation stuck point that his
monthly income was fixed at a particular
level, his income actually doubled within the
short span of a month. But his corresponding
increase in income wasnt entirely driven by
the fact that he managed to group several
coaching students together as suggested by
me. That wasnt the full story of how his

46/159

income actually increased. In fact, once he

had successfully moved past this stuck point,
he started getting more calls and inquiries
about his services seemingly out of the blue!
He started booking more coaching clients
and people started approaching him. Therefore, getting past ones manifestation stuck
points does not entail dictating to the Universe a particular course of action to take.
When we successfully overcome our manifestation stuck points, we are not dictating
that things have to happen in a certain way.
We are not trying to send any message to the
Universe. All we are doing, is to overcome
blind-spots in our own thinking. Once we are
able to overcome these blind-spots, we open
ourselves to the good that the Universe has
in store for us. It may be through the means
we have imagined, or it may be through even
better means.

47/159

Some of our manifestation stuck points

can be very pervasive. One of the biggest
ones Ive seen is this: I dont think it is possible for me to have this thing or outcome.
As a result of this pervasive stuck point, we
find that some people dont even bother asking for the things they want, because they
think they will not get it or that it is impossible for them! This happens for everyone, even advanced students of this material.
Upon writing the previous chapter, I
examined my own life and realized that even
I had certain things in life which I
accepted, because I thought I wouldnt be
able to change them. That is alright as long
as you are at peace with these things and
conditions in your life. However, dont fall
into the trap of thinking that a particular
condition is unchangeable and therefore one
has to grit his teeth and bear with it. Anytime
you are not at peace with something and find

48/159

it a struggle to bear with anything, your

discomfort is an indication that it can be
changed. It is providing the impulse, the impetus you need to change it. However, many
of us do not even bother asking for an improved situation because we are caught by a
big manifestation stuck point, which is that
the particular condition cannot possibly be
changed.
The good news is that once we are able
to allow ourselves to think around that stuck
point, the outer situation will usually resolve
itself very quickly. Sometimes, a mere shift
in perception (from moving past the stuck
point) will cause a perceived problem to fall
apart on its own accord. We may no longer
perceive a problem that we perceived in the
first place. We have transcended a previous
level of understanding. This happens to me
all the time. For example, I used to be very
hung up when I wrote a nice greeting card to

49/159

an old friend and did not hear back from

them. In fact, I would walk around for days
wondering if they received the card, and why
is it that they have not replied! The desired
outcome that I was asking for was to have
my friends reply to my letters and cards,
which cant seem to be that difficult in the
modern age!
When negative feelings started stewing
in me, I decided to do something about it.
Remember that any type of negative feelings
have an effect on your current and future
manifestations, since the Universe is always
picking up on the sum total of your thoughts
and feelings. Therefore, even though the negative feelings you feel are not directly related
to what you are asking for, throwing in these
negative feelings into the mix upsets your vibrational balance. As I sat down and examined this issue closely, I realized that I
had a major manifestation stuck point

50/159

surrounding this issue. One that was so big

and obvious that I did not realize it in the
past. The manifestation stuck point was: My
efforts are unappreciated because my friend
did not reply to me.
Once this stuck point was laid out in
plain view, it was easy to see why I felt negative feelings when I did not receive a reply. I
felt unappreciated! I felt that my efforts were
going to waste! Now please understand that
manifestation stuck points are always about
us, and nothing about the people that are involved or even named in our stuck points.
Therefore, this manifestation stuck point
pointed to something inside of myself that
needed to be resolved, and nothing about my
friends who did not reply to my messages. It
is very easy to identify a manifestation stuck
point and then cite reasons why these stuck
points exist by pointing to the various external parties involved. But doing so would

51/159

be falling into the very common trap of giving our power to external events and factors.
In other words, if I had continued to put the
blame on my friends for making me feel
those negative feelings, I would not have resolved this stuck point at all.
Once the stuck point was identified, I
began looking for ways to think around it.
Recall it does not matter whether any of the
alternative possibilities we come up with are
true. What is important is that they allow us
to sort out the kinks in our own thinking and
feelings. How should one think around the
stuck point previously identified? First, I noticed that I equated a non-reply with being
unappreciated. This strong association made
it impossible for me to experience any other
reality.
Second, I began to ponder alternative
realities. Is it possible that non-reply equals

52/159

appreciation? Definitely! Since there were

many times in my life in which I received a
greeting card and didnt have the time to
reply. I was certainly thankful and grateful to
the sender in my heart, but just didnt get
round to thanking them in writing or in person. I should have, but I did not, and I still
felt thankful and appreciative of their wellwishes. Therefore, my stuck point was that I
equated non-reply with not being appreciated, when a non-reply can mean so many
other things as well! With that, I had created
alternative possibilities for myself. I was no
longer stuck on that point. I was free.
With that one single realization, I was
completely free. All the negative feelings dissolved and dissipated. This is a perfect example of perceiving a problem when there is
none. There was not even an issue in the first
place, but I perceived one due to my own
stuck thinking. I conditioned my good

53/159

feelings on whether my old friends replied to

my greetings or otherwise. The moment I got
past the manifestation stuck point, it was like
a whole new reality. I felt so happy and
elated for sending out the card. I felt pure joy
in imagining that they received my card and
were uplifted by the messages within. I felt
pure joy for them and for myself. I was completely free. This has never been about anything or anyone else but only about myself.
The only work to do is always on ourselves.
The moment I had this realization, I
knew I had cleared another major manifestation block in my life. Sometimes all of our
stuck points share a common thread or
theme. In this case, the common theme is
one of not being appreciated by others. In
other words: Doing things for others and not
being appreciated for them, expecting some
kind of thank you or reciprocation. But
why should our good feelings be conditional

54/159

on whether others reciprocate? Why should

we bind them with our own expectations of
whats appropriate or inappropriate, right or
wrong? Let us give up all expectations of how
anyone else should behave, and cut off all
these binds that we have unconsciously imposed on others. The moment we do that, we
are free.
I dropped this whole issue from my
mind and went about my day. The very next
day, I received a phone call out-of-the-blue
from a new client wanting to engage my services and book me in advance for the new
year. I have no way of confirming it, but I
know deeply that it happened as a result of
me letting go of yet another self-imposed
limitation from my life. When we free
ourselves from negative feelings and emotions, especially recurring ones, we return
back to that peaceful and pure state that we
have always been. There is another ending to

55/159

this story too. Two days after I successfully

dissolved this manifestation stuck point, I
did hear back from my old friend. It turned
out that he was away and did not receive my
card in time. I also know that had I not overcome that manifestation stuck point first,
this new reality would not have emerged.
Outer reality could only match up when I
lived a new level of understanding.
I hope I have convinced you about the
importance of taking a good look at your
manifestation stuck points. Some of them
will seem very logical or obvious to you, so
much so that we dismiss them at first glance
as valid obstacles. They should be, since they
have always been there since the beginning!
That is why our desired good cannot even
come through to us! But these perceived
obstacles are often manifestation stuck
points that need to be addressed, and we
handle them not by making them disappear

56/159

on the outside (for example, not by taking

outer actions to force my friends to reply to
me so that I could feel appreciated), but by
making them disappear on the inside. Remember It is always an inside job! Always. Always. Always.
When you understand that it all happens on the inside, a very empowering and
peaceful feeling comes over you. The day I
realized that everything happened on the inside, and that outer reality simply mirrored
everything I felt or perceived on the inside (a
saying I had previously heard many times), I
felt totally free. I knew, in that moment, that
I could manifest absolutely anything I
wanted and it was an exhilarating feeling!
For the first time in my life, I was free from
other peoples expectations, antics and actions. I knew I could not longer be affected
by them if I did not allow myself to. At the
same time, I was freeing other people from

57/159

my expectations. They were free to be whoever they were and I still accepted them
wholeheartedly for what they were. When
you realize all of these, you are indeed seeing
through the eyes of the Universe.

Chapter 4 - How I Discovered

The 95-5 Code
For the first few years in my manifestation journey, I was extremely focused on
various manifestation techniques which I
could use to manifest my desires. I read almost every single book out there, took every
single course out there and had some success
with the techniques but not as much as I
liked. In particular, there were a few intentions and desires which continually eluded
(and even frustrated) me, as I could never
seem to make them work. Despite all of that,
I did what most persistent people would. I
pressed on, never once stopping to question
whether I was moving in the right direction.
Somewhere along the way, I realized I
had read almost every single book on the

59/159

subject of manifestation. I had read almost

every single take on the topic, and yet things
were still not happening! That was when it
became a real wake-up call for me. I had two
choices: First, I could choose to declare all of
these teachings as untrue and turn my back
against them. Or second, I could choose to
take a good look at what was happening inside myself. I could scrutinize everything I
have been doing up till that point. Choosing
option two would have made for a good
story, but the truth is that I chose the first
option more than once. Those who have read
my other books would know that more than
once, I turned my back against these teachings in disappointment and frustration. I had
tried so many different techniques out
there that I was deluded. But each time I
gave up, a calm voice within told me to go
back. It was a nudging feeling, something I
recognize today as coming from our higher

60/159

selves. It was the divine gently guiding me in

the right direction.
The Universe can send us general signals and nudges, but it can never force or
compel us to do anything. Thats why
Abraham-Hicks always joke that there is
nothing they can do to zap us into action!
Or into changing our beliefs! We have to do
it ourselves. However, since a part of us is always connected to Source, that larger part of
us is always pulling and calling us forth in
the direction of our greater good. I know it is
that greater part of myself that called me
back to these teachings over-and-over again,
because deep down inside, I recognized
those teachings as true even when I was unable to elucidate them as clearly as I do
today. So wherever you are on the path right
now, rest in the assurance that even if you
feel totally lost or clueless, there is still that
larger part of you that is gently guiding and

61/159

nudging you in the right direction. All you

have to do is to listen to it that one little bit
more.
And thats exactly what I did. I listened
to my inner self that one little bit more. The
final time I came back to these teachings, I
sat down and really examined all of it logically. I reasoned that I had done all the outerdirected actions a person could humanely
take. I also reasoned that I had all the technical knowledge on the subject anyone can
possibly have. So what was missing? That
was when I finally realized that there have
been certain aspects of these teachings that I
was neglecting. For one, I could not give up
my worrying (a topic which I cover in my
other book It Is Done). I had convinced
myself repeatedly that it was alright to
worry, since I was doing all these very positive actions on the outside. In other words, I
had totally neglected the 95 in the 95-5

62/159

code. I did not pay any attention to what I

did during 95% of the time when I wasnt
actively doing all these manifestation techniques. It was an eye-opening moment for
me, as I realized that even though I was so
deeply involved in these various positive
techniques what I did during 95% of my
day was still terribly negative and skewed in
the other direction!
That was when everything started to
click for me. I started to examine all my past
manifestations and discovered that whenever things happened quickly for me, those
were the intentions which I had no manifestation stuck points about. I was clear about
them right from the start. Then I looked at
the things which were not manifest in my
life, and discovered (not surprisingly) that I
had all these various stuck points around
them! The more manifestation stuck points
surrounding an intention, the more

63/159

challenges I had getting it to manifest! I had

hoped to press ahead in spite of these manifestation stuck points, instead of finding
clever ways to think around them! That was
the crux of the entire issue and the discovery
was a real eye-opener for me. It was like a giant weight being lifted off my shoulders!
That was when I became aware of what
I did during the 95% of my time. In the beginning, I still continued engaging in the
various outer manifestation techniques. But
the real change came when I began to have
conscious awareness over what I did during
95% of the time. It was what made all the difference, and it should since it represents
what we do during most of our waking
hours! How you think and feel during the
majority of your time makes all the difference in the speed and timing of your manifestations. Whether you are an effective
manifestor or not boils down to how you

64/159

manage your inner state during the 95% of

the time you are not meditating, praying, affirming as opposed to the 5% of the time
that you are.
In fact, the moment I placed my conscious awareness on how I thought and felt
during the 95% of my time The moment I
worked to consciously eliminate these manifestation stuck points everything happened
for me. Longstanding manifestations started
coming into my life from all directions, be it
in the area of finances, career or relationships. Suddenly, everything worked and
clicked!
Bear in mind that in the beginning, I
was not entirely successful at controlling the
way I felt the whole 95% of the time. I was
merely shifting my conscious awareness to it.
I did not successfully get rid of all of my negative feelings or emotions, but lots of good

65/159

things still happened for me anyway. This is

the way it works in our Universe. I am not
requesting that you eliminate 100% of your
negative thoughts, worries or stuck points
from your consciousness right now. That
would be doing it the hard way. If you even
reduce or think around a single stuck point
that would suffice. Getting rid of that single
stuck point will provide the much-needed
momentum to move you forward. Therefore,
do not ever be concerned that you have too
many stuck points to overcome, or that you
are constantly thinking negative thoughts all
day. Conversely, do not beat yourself up
when a negative thought somehow floats
through your mind. All I am asking that you
do is to reduce the frequency of these negative thoughts, not to eliminate them completely. Ive found that even a small reduction in negative thoughts can lead to a huge
improvement in outer results.

66/159

What happened soon after I cleared up

what was going on 95% of my time? As mentioned earlier, longstanding manifestations
which have been stuck started coming true
for me. Even intentions and desires which I
set years ago, and had long given up on and
forgotten started coming true for me! In the
moment they came true, I had a sense of instant recognition and knowing. It was then I
realized, Oh yes! This is what I asked for
back then! And its true now! That feeling is
truly incredible. Therefore, I now know
today that the Universe never forgets any of
our intentions and desires unless we choose
to change them. Put differently, once we hold
an intention, the broader part of ourselves
continues holding that intention and there
is no need to keep re-stating our intentions
for fear that the Universe misses out on it.
There is no signal we need to keep broadcasting out there.

67/159

I rarely talk about the downsides, but I

should right now and show you a simple
workaround. In fact, this is the first time I
will be talking about the seeming
downsides of doing any spiritual manifestation work. Recall that both our negative and
positive strongly-held feelings are attractive
/ magnetic in nature, and that the Universe
does not discern or care about what you ask
for. The Universe always gives us whatever is
in line with our vibrations. It will give you
whatever you ask for, whether consciously or
unconsciously, without judging the rightness of it. Therefore, you may ask for
something which is considered bad by others, but if you really ask for it and put yourself in alignment with it youll still get it.
The Universe simply does not judge.
One thing I discovered after practicing
these techniques was the need to deal with
my residual fear-based intentions and

68/159

vibrations from the past. Let me give you a

simple example. Have you ever heard met
one of those unreasonable or rude individuals at the grocery store, and fantasized about
giving them a piece of your mind? Or maybe
giving your boss or nasty colleague a piece of
your mind? Of course you would not have
done it for real, but each time you observed
your nasty colleague doing something that
riled you, you might have fantasized giving
him or her a piece of your mind and played
that satisfying scenario over and over in your
minds eye just for the fun of it! I myself have
fantasized over these scenarios even for
just a fleeting moment. Guess what, whenever we feel strong emotions and feelings, regardless of the reasons we are feeling them
for our strong feelings are setting things into motion as future physical manifestations!
And so, it was quite amusing to have a
few of those instances actually come true for

69/159

me once I started practicing the 95-5 code.

Lots of my desired good came to me almost
instantaneously, but I also found some of
these undesired scenarios materializing for
me really fast! It was a really valuable lesson
in manifestation for me Because it was
then that I finally understood the impartiality and precision of these Universal Laws.
They work for whatever you ask for. The
Universe always gives you exactly what you
ask for (whether consciously or unconsciously). By replaying a scenario over and
over in my mind vividl, even though I was
just fantasizing for the kick of it, I was actually setting a strong intention to have a similar experience in my physical reality. When I
cleared all the negative feelings and worries
that were standing in the way of my manifestations, these seemingly negative scenarios manifested in my life for me as well.
Therefore, when I found myself in those unpleasant situations, a part of me was secretly

70/159

saying, Oh my These Laws actually work!

Look at whats happening now! So I was
able to recognize the humor of the Universe
and move on.
I feel inspired to add a few paragraphs
about this subject here because a small portion of readers may start having certain bad
things come true for them, along with the
good stuff they have always asked for. Recognize that this is a natural consequence of
your residual vibrations and what you have
asked for in the past. All is always well.
Now some of you may be reading this
and find yourselves worried about whether
bad things will start happening to you out
of the blue. There is absolutely no cause for
concern as things never happen out-of-theblue for no reason at all. Note that apart
from the one or two isolated incidents, nothing bad or untoward has happened to me. I

71/159

had tons and tons of ever-flowing, endless

good stuff and just two of these seemingly
negative experiences coming true for me by
comparison. Therefore, do not be worried
that bad things you conjured in the past will
suddenly start happening for you, because
many of those bad intentions would have
been erased or countered by your subsequent and numerous good intentions for
well-being and safety. This is the purpose of
the time buffer, which is to allow yourself to
clarify your intentions. The reason why those
one or two incidents still happened for me
was because I was feeling neutral about them
(a lack of manifestation stuck points), and
because I had rehearsed those scenarios
over-and-over again, each time feeling
strong and vivid emotions. In other words,
by repeatedly visualizing them, I was wanting them. At the same time, since those
scenarios did not really threaten my safety or
well-being, I was not setting counter-

72/159

intentions that pushed them away from me.

Thus, when I let go of the general fears and
worries that were holding my other manifestations apart from me these manifestations came true for me as well. So dont
worry, bad things will not happen to you
once you start practicing these techniques.
On the contrary, all the good that you desire
will start happening for you very quickly.
This recommended affirmation by
Abraham-Hicks is perhaps the most apt for
use here: Today, no matter where Im going,
no matter what I am doing, and no matter
who Im doing it with it is my dominant
intent to look for that which Im wanting to
see. And it is so!

Chapter 5 - Understanding
the '5' In The 95-5 Code
So far, we have established the main
reason why manifestation techniques do not
produce results for most people. The reason
is because they are focused on the wrong aspects of the process! They are channeling excessive amounts of time and energy into 5%
of the process, when they should be broadening their awareness to what takes place 95%
of the time. This often neglected 95% makes
all of the difference. When you successfully
change what goes on during 95% of your
conscious waking awareness, you would have
produced huge changes in your outer reality so much so that you would be a completely different person both on the inside
and outside!

74/159

In this chapter, well talk about the 5

in the 95-5 code. In other words, what you
should be doing during the 5% (or less) of
your time. This is the time in which you actively state your intentions or engage in visualization and meditation exercises. Before we
go into greater detail on what to do, let us get
a few common misconceptions out of the
way. The first one (a biggie) is that there is
no right way to engage in all of these manifestation techniques. As Ive repeated numerous times across all my books, it is useful
to give up the idea that there is a right way
in which you should carry out all these
techniques.
New readers often worry about whether they are doing things right, and whether
they are following the steps exactly as written. I once read a wonderful book teaching
spiritual manifestation exercises, and while I
found the book to be absolutely superb, I saw

75/159

readers commenting in the Reviews section

that the author was not clear enough on
whether they should be breathing this way or
that way! Hence, readers were not sure
whether they were doing things right! Can
you identify the manifestation stuck point
here that was preventing some readers from
applying those techniques? Thats right, the
stuck point is: There is a right way to do
these techniques, and I dont know what it is
since the author did not describe it clearly.
Now applying what we have learnt in
the previous few chapters, and since we cannot get the author to change his writing
lets see if we can think around that stuck
point and instantly produce outer results.
How about: There is no right way to do
these techniques as long as I do it! Now that
sounds better and more resourceful. Or how
about: Whatever works is what works for
me These techniques are a wonderful

76/159

starting point! In fact, this is the very mindset and attitude I adopt when I learn any new
manifestation techniques. I see them as a
starting point to reinforce whatever I already
know, and to allow greater good to come into
my life. A simple shift in perception can
make the difference between having no results and amazing results. So instead of getting hung up on whether you are doing
things right, just go out there and have fun!
Just do it already!
Back in my earlier days, I was always
worried that these techniques would not
work if I was distracted. For example, if I
was doing them in a fairly noisy place with
some noise I would get irritated and agitated that I wasnt in a quieter place where
these techniques could work better. Can you
see the manifestation stuck point here again?
These techniques can only work if I do them
in an absolutely quiet place. Which is a

77/159

totally absurd stuck point since I made that

one up for myself! It caused me to feel agitated each time there was some noise as I was
trying out these techniques, or each time
someone interrupted me when I tried them.
Can you now see how we are always imposing these ridiculous limitations on ourselves?
Understanding the manifestation stuck
points concept will allow you to get past all
these frivolous thinking easily and effortlessly. When I thought around those stuck
points, I changed it to: These techniques
work no matter where I try them, as long as I
do them. I can tell you today that all these
techniques work no matter where I do them.
Even if I am interrupted halfway while doing
them, or if I get distracted somehow, I no
longer feel agitated or irritated about it. I
just smile, go back to what I was doing and
simply repeat it again! A simple change in
perception produces massive changes in outer results!

78/159

The second major misconception is

that you need to do them. Heres one of the
biggest and most counter-intuitive secrets
ever There is no need to even engage in
this 5%, if you do not want to. Therefore, the
5 in the 95-5 code is completely optional
and not compulsory. Thats right. Let me repeat it again: All of this work is optional and
up to you. You can choose not to engage in
any of it and still have all your good flowing
to you, as long as you take note of the other
95%. Therefore, you can stop doing this work
right now if you feel obliged or forced to do
it. When I reached this level of understanding and realization for myself, I immediately
dropped all of the forceful asking I was doing. From doing lots of it every single day
and walking around like an affirmation machine (!), I dropped all of that and just allowed myself to be. I allowed myself to be
the whole, complete and free being that I

79/159

always was, and always have been with absolutely no need to ask or engage in any
outer-directed actions. Instead, I focused my
energies on the 95 in the 95-5 code and all
the good I desired flowed to me, and more!
Nowadays, I do very little of the 5 in
the 95-5 code. In fact, my actual percentage
should be closer to 1 - 3% when we base it on
the amount of time spent daily. But that 1%
produces massive results for me because I
am now leveraging the immense power of
that 1% through the remaining 99% of my
day. When you put the 95-5 code into practice, amazing things start happening for you
and more good than you ever imagined
comes into your life. I am not saying this to
make you feel good, but because I live it and
know it is truly possible for every single person who is willing to spend the time to do
this work. This is possibly the easiest work
youll ever do in your life and yet the

80/159

results are massive! So give up the need to

try any techniques or force yourself to do
them if you do not feel like it. I set a target to
spend some quiet time with myself 3 times a
day, for 5 to 10 minutes each. But do I do it
every single day? On certain days I am so
caught up with things and a packed schedule
that I do not have the time to do it 3 times a
day. Still, the good has not stopped flowing
to me because my eyes are never off that 95
in the 95-5 code. When you truly understand
the 95-5 code, the 5 is optional.
Now that we have these two major misconceptions out of the way, let us look at the
5 in the 95-5 code. As suggested, all the active techniques that you engage in should
take up no more than 5% of your time. That
is a good guidance and starting point to begin with. If you are spending more than 72
minutes (thats 5%) a day engaged in active
manifestation techniques such as chanting

81/159

mantras, affirmations, new-age healing techniques, energy work, spells and so on you
are likely to be counter-productive instead of
productive. Thats because you are spending
more than required to produce massive results in your life!
I know of readers who spend hours on
end doing these techniques repeatedly. I
used to be one of them too. I would walk
around with a stack of self-help books and a
long list of techniques to try, one after another! To be honest, it wasnt fun for me because I found it all to be like a chore. It was
like forcing myself to go through the motions, yet I was worried that if I stopped doing any of them things wouldnt happen for
me. Can you infer the inner state of someone
who acts like that? His inner state would be
filled with worry and desperation! He wants
what he wants so badly that he keeps doing
these techniques over-and-over again,

82/159

hoping for things to happen faster. And that

very inner state is contrary to the one
needed for your manifestations to occur in
the first place. Therefore, the first step is to
take a good look at the time spent practicing
these active techniques. Are you spending
more than one hour each day? If so, it might
be a good idea to free up some of that time.
(Reading time does not count, as reading is
not an active manifestation technique.)
Once you have made the conscious decision to cut down on the time spent doing
these active techniques, what should you do
during this sacred time? What should you do
during the 5% of your time? As mentioned
above, once you live in a truly manifestative
inner state no outer actions are necessary.
You literally are at the right place at the right
time People, events and circumstances
seem to revolve and happen around you!

83/159

But I know it may not be possible to

give up all of your outer-directed actions all
at once. You may still choose to engage in
some of them for the time being, so these following suggestions may be useful for you.
For me, I still choose to engage in these spiritual exercises because they feel just so good
to me! I do them not because I want to make
anything happen on the outside, but because
I am reconnecting with and really becoming
aware of the divinity within me when I do
them.
If you will adopt this mindset when
practicing the 5 in the 95-5 code, your
manifestations will happen effortlessly because you are no longer pushing against reality with a sense of desperation and hurry. Instead, you would be allowing yourself to be
carried along by the forward momentum and
flow of the Universe. Relaxation and ease is

84/159

really the key here. Now lets take a look at

how I do it

Chapter 6 - How I Spend My

Sacred Manifestation Time
Since I engage in so few of these activities nowadays, I consider my time spent on
them to be really sacred. It is an important
part of the day for me, and I treat this five to
ten minutes with the utmost veneration and
respect. In the past, when I spent hours on
end trying to get these techniques to work, it
was like forcing myself to go through the external motions just to get it over and done
with! I did not care about the internal
changes that were happening. As a result, no
lasting internal changes happened. My focus
was solely on when I could get my stuff! The
moment I started practicing the 95-5 code, I
began to see this 5% as an integral part of the
whole. This 5% is like planting a seed in the
whole energy field, allowing my intentions to

86/159

be amplified and leveraged upon effortlessly

through the other 95%. Think of this as
dropping a beautiful pebble in a pond. The
5% is where the pebble hits the water, and
the remaining 95% is where the ripples extend all around. Both work to complement
each other.
I choose to engage in my sacred time
thrice a day, for around five to ten minutes
each time. I do not keep track of the precise
time spent, as that would set up expectations
that I need to be spending a certain amount
of time. I do not use a timer or clock. Instead, I let whatever that happens be okay.
Sometimes I feel inspired to spend a little
more time doing this 5%, and on other days,
I get the feeling that what I have done is sufficient and enough for the day. As always,
listen to your inner nudges and intuition.
The messages that your higher self send you

87/159

are always leading you towards your greater

good, if youll listen to them purely enough!
I usually choose a particular window of
the day in which I know I will not be interrupted for the next half hour or so. This frees
up my mind from any worries of interruption. The way I have done it is to re-arrange
the furniture in my room to be as comfortable as possible. One place where I engage in
my sacred time is in my office, and I recommend that you move your furniture around a
bit to suit your manifestation routine. Buy a
new plush armchair if necessary, or even a
simple cushion which can be propped behind
your back or under your neck. All of this is
valuable investment that will make your
manifestation journey much more enjoyable
and rewarding!
Due to space constraints, I gave up on
the idea of having a full-sized plush armchair

88/159

in my office. However, I did shop around for

a comfortable plush neck pillow. It was another intention I put out, which subsequently
manifested on one of my shopping trips! I
knew the moment I saw the orange pillow
that it would be perfect for my manifestation
needs, although it was marketed to drivers
for use on long road trips. The lesson here is
that the Universe is always standing by to
provide whatever support you may need so
use the help provided by the Universe! Ask
for help to manifest your desires in the form
of equipment, furniture or location, even
when it is for something seemingly small
such as locating the right neck pillow for
your manifestation time!
Once I found a small orange neck pillow that was right for me, the quality of my
sacred manifestation time improved considerably! I could now lie back comfortably in
my office chair with the orange pillow

89/159

propped under my neck for support. I felt

physically comfortable. The first key is to ensure that youre physically comfortable in
whatever position you choose to be in. There
is no need to be lying down flat (I have found
this position to be counter-productive for
me), and there is no need to be sitting up
straight with the spine erect either (as in
meditation).
I have chosen to just lie back in my office chair, ensuring that my back and neck is
well-supported. This position seems to work
best for me, and youll need to experiment to
see whats suitable for you. By best, I mean
the one that makes you feel the most comfortable, and not the one that produces the
most manifestations! Any position is alright
so long as you feel comfortable with it, and
everyone is different. I have personally found
some recommended positions to be really
uncomfortable for me, such that I focused on

90/159

my discomfort more than my actual intentions. So dont take any written instructions
as gospel.
Next, our physical surroundings are
important because small distractions may
cause our focus to suddenly jump from our
inner world to our outer environment. As
much as possible, we want to keep our focus
inwards. Especially in the beginning, distractions such as noise and light may cause our
focus to be disturbed, although the more you
practice this, the more youll be able to maintain your focus for longer periods of time.
For a start, I do everything I can That includes putting the phone on silent, locking
the doors and turning out all the lights in the
room for my really sacred time. This is the
time Im spending exclusively with my higher self.

91/159

I start off by taking three deep breaths.

Again, as Ive explained in my other books
(such as The Magic Feeling), three is an arbitrary number and it helps me relax completely. It is important that you dont just go
through the motions when taking 3 deep
breaths. Instead, I really feel the energy in
each breath. I feel the sacredness in each
breath. I know that when Im breathing, Im
moving energy. I feel goosebumps and a
pleasant, warm feeling all over my body.
Real changes in the energetic environment
are occurring. As I breathe in, I feel the energy moving all around my body. Therefore,
my breath is really doing something It is
moving energy all around my body. I am not
just doing some mindless action.
After taking my three deep breaths, I
continue breathing as usual and turn my focus inwards. Years of meditation practice has
helped me do this fairly easily, although if

92/159

you have never meditated, you may continually find your minds focal point coming to
rest on something outside of you. For example, you may be thinking about external
objects like your chair or your computer.
When that happens, simply recognize that
you are focused on something external and
bring that focal point back to the inside of
your body. Rest your awareness on the inside
of your body. By doing so, you are turning
your focus from the outer physical world into
the inner spiritual world.
There are two spots in the body
which I recommend resting your conscious
awareness on. We will focus on one of them
here. Once again, this will not be easy to do
in the beginning and you may find it somewhat unnatural, especially if you have never
meditated or engaged in any kind of spiritual
practice before. However, it is important to
turn your attention inwards because we are

93/159

now making a journey into the inner spiritual world. We are taking a closer look at and
changing our inner states, instead of trying
to make things happen on the outside. When
you make the needed changes on the inside,
outer reality will match up automatically,
and it is all you need to do! So for a moment,
give up any thoughts or concerns about the
outer physical world. Leave all of that behind
and turn inwards. The spot where I place my
conscious awareness on is in the center of
my head, between my eyes and right in the
middle of my brain. If you imagine your head
as a ball, this will be right at the center / core
of it, probably somewhere towards the top.
This is also the spot where many spiritual
practitioners have recommended. I let my
conscious awareness rest there because it
feels good and natural.
Once I have done my 3 deep breaths
and settled my conscious awareness in the

94/159

center of my head, I state my affirmations

and visualize, while breathing normally.
Once again, I must clarify that I do very little
of this nowadays, because my manifestations
are all coming into being and everything in
my outer environment pleases me. However,
this may not be the case for someone who is
just starting to become a deliberate creator.
As such, it may be necessary in the beginning
to engage in these steps just to get things going. But rest assured that when things start
happening for you, theyll be happening so
quickly and completely that youll find very
little need to constantly do these techniques.
For ease of explanation, lets assume
that there is a situation or problem that
you perceive, and you desire for this situation to be improved. Therefore in this
framework, I would take 3 deep breaths
slowly, and let my conscious awareness settle
in the center of my head. I would take as

95/159

much time as needed to do this and not rush

things. Often, it will feel like a long time has
passed, such that you feel the urge to hurry
and speed things up But be assured that
when you open your eyes, only a few minutes
in physical time would have passed. We often do not have a good grasp of the flow of
time when we turn inwards.
Once your awareness is centered in
your head, state your affirmations / intentions and visualize the harmonious outcome
that you are asking for. If it is a particular
sum of money you need, see yourself sitting
there, feeling happy and satisfied that you
already have that sum of money. It may be
useful to read the relevant chapters from It
Is Done, as well as the useful reminders
about manifesting money from my book
Banned Money Secrets to learn the specifics about manifesting money. For now, we
are just going to be talking about the general

96/159

mechanics of the process. It is important that

you do all of this and give up absolutely
any need to make things happen. Youre
doing all of this not to make anything happen, but because it feels so good for you!
Youre doing it because it feels good to experience that feeling of exhilaration and relief!
What youll feel are simultaneous good
feelings that well up from using your imagination in this directed manner. Feel these
good feelings and let them wash over you.
Let the good feelings culminate and peak.
This is what I refer to as a peaking moment.
Again, you are letting the good feelings come
to an overwhelming peak not because you
want anything to happen on the outside
but because it feels so good for you! Stay
there for as long as you can. I usually stay
there until I receive an inner click, upon
which I know that it is done and I can return once again to my outer world.

97/159

Now if you somehow get interrupted

while doing any of these here are two good
ways to handle distractions. The first type of
distractions are intervening thoughts. For
example, your mind may suddenly drift to
concerns and thoughts about work. I have
found that distracting thoughts tend to happen more for me when I am tired. I therefore
recommend that you do this work when you
are well-rested and have the ability to concentrate. I find that if I do this when Im
sleepy, I would either drift off to sleep or
have a hard time maintaining my inner focus. If distracting thoughts do surface for
you, just acknowledge them and gently guide
your awareness back to your conscious intentions. Do not entertain nor try to fight
them. Just acknowledge them and let them
go.

98/159

The second type of distractions are external. For example, someone may suddenly
knock on the door or walk in on you. In the
beginning, I used to be very irritated by such
distractions such that my mood would be
spoiled because I thought my manifestations
were not going to work anymore! It is useful
to give up this stuck point for yourself right
now. If you are interrupted, simply do
whatever you need to do to take care of the
interruption and then go right back to
whatever you were visualizing before! It is alright to just go back and continue where you
left off. If I need to state an intention out
loud in my mind and I am interrupted, or I
feel that I did not do it properly. I just stop,
and go back and repeat it No bad feelings! I
repeat it until I am satisfied it went well. Do
not invest excessive energy into worrying
about interruptions, or feeling irritated by
them.

99/159

After I have immersed myself into a

conducive inner state for long enough, I usually receive an inner nudge that it is done. It
is a very assuring, deep sense of inner peace
and satisfaction. It comes from within, and
there are no external signs to cue me that my
manifestations are complete. I just know it
on the inside. When that happens, I again
take three deep breaths (once again, do not
rush through them) feel the relaxation and
energy flowing all over my body, open my
eyes and go about my day.
It is done! This is all you need to do, if
you feel compelled to take some outer-directed action, especially at the beginning.
However as Ive explained over and over
again, even the steps above are optional!
Whats compulsory is the 95 in the 95-5
code. You must watch how you feel 95% of
the time. You must watch your inner state
for most of the time. If only youll do so, the

100/159

rest will take care of itself. If you feel adventurous and want to be surprised by the goodness of the Universe, you can absolutely eschew the steps above and still have good
things happening to you.
Let us now talk about how to live the
95 in the 95-5 code!

Chapter 7 - Living the 95 in

the 95-5 Code
If I were to summarize the key to fast
and effective manifestations in one sentence,
it would be this: Think around your manifestation stuck points that continually trip
you up on the inside. Do whatever you can to
think around them. Thats all there is to it.
There is no big secret out there which you
have to pay money to learn. No esoteric techniques that are somehow withheld from you
which you have to spend years of spiritual
practice trying to master. The essence of
manifesting your desires can be eloquently
expressed in one single sentence: Manifestation is about learning how to think around
your manifestation stuck points, plain and
simple. Once you have learnt how to think

102/159

around them, things will never be the same

for you again.
Of course, doing so isnt going to be
easy at first glance. The reason why you may
have those stuck points in the first place is
because you perceive them as actual
obstacles and limitations standing between
yourself and your desires. In other words,
they are all very real reasons as to why you
cannot have what you want. But remember
that all limitations are self-imposed, and no
matter how real those limitations seem to
you at any moment, they can be dissolved
and the situation changed.
On the contrary, the more you allow
yourself to be transfixed by the illusion of
those limitations the more you solidify
them permanently in place through your
continued focus / insistence on them, and
make it extremely difficult for yourself to

103/159

experience an alternative reality where your

desires are already manifest. The easiest way
to dissolve any perceived limitations (no
matter what they may be) is to find creative
ways to think around them, instead of constantly trying to fight against them and deny
their existence. Therefore, manifesting anything is always an inner exercise in mental
focus. When you allow yourself to straighten
out the kinks on the inside no matter how
long youve had them, your outer manifestations have to follow! This process is a part of
our universal creative laws that are always
unfailing and dependable, no matter what
you are trying to create.
Some of you may argue hard against
the use of my word illusions. These manifestation stuck points may not seem illusory
to you but I can tell you, having gone
through this process time-and-time again
that they are just that mere illusions that

104/159

we perceive to be the problem. Even the

hardest and most stubborn of illusions can
be dissolved by simply changing our perceptions, because these perceived barriers are
not even real in the first place. So give up the
reasons for why you cannot change them (or
think around them) just because youve had
them for such a long time. One of the most
common excuses Ive heard for not being
able to give up any of these self-imposed limitations is because we have been stuck with
them for the longest time. But why should
the length of time weve had to put up with
something dictate whether we can get rid of
it right now, or within the next few hours?
Even that in itself is a manifestation stuck
point. Give all of those up. Think around
them.
I would like to recount a recent example to illustrate the above. Granted that
the following example is more of an un-

105/159

manifestation rather than a manifestation

scenario, in which I was trying to undo
something I had previously created by mistake. But it illustrates the point of not allowing oneself to be stuck on self-imposed limitations beautifully. Here goes Just recently,
I found myself signing a 2-year mobile phone
contract online, in my hurry to get a new
phone as a gift for a family member. Shortly
after I had done so, I realized I had made the
wrong choice, as I should have transferred
my plan to another provider for a much
cheaper price. Now I was stuck with
something I did not want that was financially
unfavorable to me, and I was beating myself
up over it! I spent the next two hours fuming
and cursing at my mistake, and making myself feel bad by performing additional calculations showing that I had indeed, chosen
wrongly! Now I was faced with a penalty had
I decided to cancel the signed contract, and
the more I thought about what I had done,

106/159

the lousier I felt. So I fumed and felt extremely bad for the entire afternoon
Now I have not felt this bad for a long
time for years in fact! But something about
this incident just made me feel so bad. It so
happened that I was working on the draft of
this book, and I decided to look at my manifestation stuck points. Why was I feeling so
miserable? Why was I feeling so stuck? I was
feeling stuck because I perceived the contract
as signed, and that the company would not
allow me to change it without charging a
huge penalty. I was feeling bad because I saw
no way to change the situation. Sounds familiar? Finally, I decided that I had enough
stewing and fuming and decided to take a
shower to clear my mind a little. That was
when I felt an inner nudge from within, and I
realized I had been so foolish to allow myself
to be stuck on a self-imposed manifestation
stuck point! Why dont you just call them up

107/159

and see what they can do for you? I had previously denied myself that possibility, because I had argued so hard in favor of my
self-imposed limitations which was my
firm belief that the company would not possibly accede to my requests. I had dealt with
them before, and a contract was a contract.
But by then, I had gotten past my
manifestation stuck point. I had thought
around it and foreseen a new possibility for
myself. Just the thought of a new possibility
made me feel so much better than how I was
feeling the hour before! The first signs of relief that youll feel will always be on the inside, even before the physical signs start
manifesting. I was now in a better place. The
moment I stepped out of the shower, I made
a call to the company and fifteen minutes
later canceled the contract with a $30 penalty and thousands of dollars saved! The
whole process was so easy that I did not even

108/159

have to explain myself over the phone! All I

did was to tell them that I wanted the contract canceled, and it was done! I am convinced now that Universal forces orchestrated my desired outcome once I was able to
straighten out the kinks in my inner thinking
and give up any negative or bad feelings
about my situation.
In fact, I felt a sudden impulse to
phone the company, whereas just a few moments ago I was cursing them, stewing at
them and imagining every single worse possible outcome ever. But the whole incident
was settled in an easier manner than I could
have imagined! That is the power you have
when you are aligned with the greater flow of
the Universe. The reverse is true. When you
are trying to go against the flow of the Universe, you feel miserable and powerless to do
anything. The objects or outcomes we are
trying to manifest here do not matter. It

109/159

could just have easily been a new car, or a

new relationship, or a new job as opposed to
the cancellation of a mobile phone contract
but the Universe never discerns between
what you want. Whatever desire you use
these techniques on does not matter.
Once you have dealt with your manifestation stuck points and used the active
manifestation techniques as outlined in the
previous chapter, what should you do during
the rest of your time? Should you wake up
and think about your manifestations most of
the time until you fall asleep at night?
Should you keep repeating your intentions
and affirmations out loud whenever you have
the chance to? Should you visualize your desires repeatedly? By now, you should know
that all these are active actions, which
means that it is not recommended that you
spend more than 5% of your day engaging in
them. So leave all those actions to the 5% of

110/159

your day when you are purely engaged in active manifestation techniques. Do none of
them during the remaining 95% of your day.
Instead, the remaining 95% of your
day is for your living and enjoyment
only. Dont squander it by wondering how
and when your desires will come to you
thats a waste of valuable energy that can be
directed elsewhere! The remaining 95% of
your day is for you to express yourself in the
most creative way possible. It is for you to
savor and enjoy, not to worry about whether
a particular outcome will result or whether
the things you ask for will come true!
After you have set your intentions and
become clear on them, let them go! Immediately go do something else, which means
go about your day in the usual manner, doing what you normally have to do. I like to
fully immerse myself in either work or play,

111/159

as I find that this frees my mind from thinking about my intentions and desires frequently. I now know that they are taken care
of by the safe hands of the Universe, and that
Universal forces have already been set into
motion in response to my intentions and desires. So what more is there for you to worry
about? In the moment that you get clear
about something, it is done!
What you should do after setting your
intentions and desires (during the 5% or less
of your day) is to immerse yourself wholeheartedly into living life to the fullest! If you
are currently engaged in any job or livelihood, put your heart and mind into your job
and perform it to the best of your abilities.
Rest in the assurance that whatever you ask
for is already done, and on its way! If you
find it difficult to do so, if intruding thoughts
of worries and fears keep creeping back into
your conscious awareness first be thankful

112/159

for those worrying thoughts because they are

a sure sign that you have not completely
dealt with your manifestation stuck points. It
follows that if you resolve most of your manifestation stuck points, intruding thoughts
and worries will no longer creep into your
awareness as frequently. So if worrying
thoughts keep coming back, take a close look
at their content without engaging / entertaining them. Take a close look at the triggering thought. What is the first thought usually
about? Youll be able to infer what you are
stuck on. For example, if you are constantly
worried about whether something will come
to you, then your stuck point could be related
to not trusting in these Laws, and not generally trusting that you have set your intentions well enough. Reading this and similar
books that explain the process will give you
more ways to get past these manifestation
stuck points.

113/159

I like to do something completely different after I have set my intentions. Deliberate distraction is often the key here so that
intruding thoughts have no chance to occupy
my awareness! For example, I like to bring
myself to beautiful places for a stroll, or to
engage myself in one of my hobbies wholeheartedly. The two to three hours you spend
engaging in your hobbies without a care for
the world creates an opening through
which the Universe can work its magic and
dissolve any self-imposed boundaries or limitations, simply because you are no longer
insisting on their existence through your
continued focus on them! This is key, which
is why I keep returning to this same point
over and over again. Do whatever you can to
take your mind off what you have just asked
for, and the omnipotent Universe responds
in the most beautifully way possible. Therefore, taking a walk and engaging in any form
of physical exercise in which you are too

114/159

engaged to think about anything else is often

a good way to take your mind off things for a
while. Pick up jogging, cycling, swimming or
a sport if you have to. One hour of engaging
in a moderately vigorous sporting activity
not only does wonders for your health, but
also for your manifestations I am living
proof of it!
If you set your desires and visualize /
meditate in a particular room of your house,
it is often a good idea to get out of the house
and start moving about on the outside so
your physical location will not remind you of
the intentions you have just set. Very often, I
see individuals who spend so much time
visualizing at home that just being in that
place reminds them of their unmanifested
desires! That is certainly not a position you
want to find yourself in. As I was in my early
days, I was trying out all these techniques
and actions for such a huge portion of the

115/159

day that I literally allowed myself to remain

stuck in my own routine! I would wake up,
try the techniques in vain, and then go to
sleep and this went on over-and-over
again. Is it any wonder that very little
changed? Even my physical routine was the
same!
Break out of any physical routine you
may have that is built around your active
manifestation activities. Make a conscious
decision right now to spend only 5% of your
time (or less!) engaged in those active manifestation activities, and the remaining 95% of
your time really living life. Initially, you may
feel empty or weird when you have given
up on your repeated asking. You may suddenly find yourself with lots of (or more) free
time on hand. In which case, it is a good idea
to see if you can replace that free time with
fruitful and meaningful activities that you
enjoy doing. In the past few years, I have

116/159

signed up for interesting classes, picked up

new hobbies and done things which I normally would not have done all using the
huge amount of time I previously spent visualizing and trying to make all these manifestation techniques work! Remember Your
life is for living and not for you to engage in
all these actions to ask or attract what
you want. If you are spending disproportionate amounts of time on these actions and still
not getting what you want, perhaps it is time
to change tact!
I have been surprised by all the good
that has come to me ever since I adopted this
new way of living. Even though I have greatly
reduced the amount of time Ive spent stating or visualizing my desires, the good that
has come to me must have increased a thousandfold and keeps on coming in response
to my greater allowance of it! Our good is always flowing to us. It does not ever stop

117/159

flowing. The question is whether we are putting ourselves in a receptive inner state to receive it. Or is all our mental activity, all our
negative mind chatter, interfering with our
greater good? Give up the need to argue for
why something cannot be yours, and stop
dwelling on those stuck points for most of
the time and what you want will be yours
when you get there in time!

Chapter

Living

The

Immersion Technique
Over the years, I have made it a point
to constantly tune in and check how I am
feeling on the inside. As mentioned, this
can be difficult to do without any prior spiritual training since by default, our attention
is always placed on something outside of
ourselves. Notice how at this very moment,
you are focused on the words on this page.
That is something outside of yourself. You
may be slightly lulled by the pleasant singing
of birds, or the sound of traffic in the background. That again, is our focus on things
outside of us. With so many things happening on the outside, we rarely check in to notice how we feel on the inside. It turns out
that how you feel on the inside, your inner
state, makes all the difference to your

119/159

manifestation results but we are all so

numb and dull to that feeling! We perceive it
as natural and always there.
As I check inside of myself right now, I
feel a deep inner sense of peace and calm. I
feel a sense of assuredness and security. This
is the inner state I have come to know as being conducive to manifestations. I also feel a
bit of the Magic Feeling in the background (a
feeling which I describe in my book of the
same name) and I recognize the feeling as
underlying everything, always there. But
most people do not feel this way. When they
take the time to turn inwards and check how
they feel on the inside first, they will encounter a sense of active resistance. Their
ego will convince them to stop doing it, that
its silly or weird, and that there is nothing
there. But no matter how weird or unnatural it seems, you must push pass these feelings and be persistent with this exercise. We

120/159

have been so conditioned to live by what

goes on on the outside, and what is happening outside of us that we cannot bear to turn
inwards for even a moment! But turning inwards is the key to being an effective and deliberate manifestor. Only by always turning
inwards can you start cultivating a conducive
inner state.
So for the next few moments, I would
like you to sit quietly by yourself and turn
your conscious awareness inwards. Sure, you
will still be aware of the chair youre sitting
on, or the words on this page but turn your
awareness inwards and notice whats happening on the inside. Notice how you are
feeling on the inside. Take a reading of how
you feel and just notice what is there. Is
there a sense of deep inner calm and peace?
Is there a sense of inner lightness? Or is
there a tinge of worry and fear? For most
people, there will be a slight tinge of worry or

121/159

fear one of dis-ease or dis-comfort. But understand that these feelings arise from the
negatively conditioned mind, which has been
trained to spontaneously bring up these feelings over long periods of time. This is not our
true nature.
I was lying in bed one night and my
thoughts drifted to the time I was a little boy.
I had been born premature and grew up as
an extremely shy and timid boy, always
afraid of everything. That night, as I lay in
my bed and drifted off to sleep, I somehow
thought back to the time when I was little
Richard. I then began to realize (somewhat
surprisingly) as I stepped into my body back
then that I was constantly filled with an
overwhelming and profound sense of fear!
Suddenly, all those feelings came rushing
back to me and they seemed all too real. I
know those were the exact feelings I felt back
then when I was a child, and continued to

122/159

carry with me throughout my teenage years.

That feeling of being fearful, worried and
scared of being self-conscious was actually what I carried around with me all those
years with such intensity!
That was a huge revelation for me In
that moment, I received all the answers I
needed. I knew why certain things in my life
turned out the way they were, and why I
lived a certain way as I was growing up. It
was a liberating realization that confirmed
everything I teach today. While I know today
that our inner state influences our outer results and teach this truth passionately, going
back to that time as a young boy allowed me
to understand why certain things happened
the way they did. I had always thought I was
the victim of circumstances growing up, that
people were somehow unkind or mean to
me. I always thought I was the unlucky
one, perhaps not vocalizing those words but

123/159

subconsciously feeling them at a very deep

level. But being transported back into how I
was as a child that night and going back into
my previous inner state confirms everything
I now know today. How could things have
been otherwise when I was always so worried
and fearful? How could things have been
otherwise when I was always so afraid of
everything? I remember the fear as being
intense.
The good news is that as adults today,
we have the power to change our inner states
at will. No longer are we at the mercy of authority figures in our lives, who while having
our best interests at heart, may themselves
not fully comprehend these wonderful
Universal laws. Therefore we as adults today
have the freedom to choose. In every moment, we can choose how we want to feel
and hence what we want to create. So check
in right now and make a mental note of how

124/159

you feel. I am not asking that you try and

change the way you feel, but merely to recognize and notice how you feel. Just noticing it
is enough. Do you feel 100% light, peaceful
and calm? If so, your manifestations will be
coming very quickly. Do you feel 80% light,
peaceful and calm with a 20% feeling of
worry or uneasiness? If so, do not despair
because the moment you drop and reduce
that 20% down to zero things will happen
to you in such easy, effortless ways that you
will be amazed. Make it your goal to get
whatever negative feelings down to zero.
Thats the most important.
I like to devote the next half of this
chapter to walking you through the immersion technique, which Ive found to be very
useful for letting go of negative worries and
living fully in the now. It does not matter
what activity you choose for this immersion
technique, but it should not be one of the

125/159

active manifestation techniques that you do

during the 5% of your time. In other words,
it should not be any actions which you do to
ask for your manifestations. The immersion technique can be used on anything else
for work, play, or even mundane activities
like tidying your closet. Sometimes, I prefer
to work on seemingly mundane activities
just to clear my mind a little and create an
opening for the Universe to work its magic.
The way to do the immersion technique is to immerse yourself fully, wholeheartedly, in whatever activity you have at
hand. For example, lets suppose that you
have just done the 5 activities in the 95-5
code, and now youre switching modes and
going back to your daily life. You are now living the 95 part of the 95-5 code. What you
should do when living this 95 is to pick
whatever activity that you have to do, and
then immerse yourself fully in it. Lets

126/159

suppose that the activity I have to do next is

to draft an email to an associate at work. Instead of just mindlessly typing the email like
you would do before, going through the motions of it, be extra aware and conscious of
each step as you do it. This is not entirely the
same as concentration or being in deep focus. Rather, do it with a sense of purpose.
Let the act of drafting that email and typing
it out fill your entire consciousness such that
what you have just asked for while you were
visualizing is completely out of your mind.
Immerse yourself so wholeheartedly in
whatever activity you are doing at hand that
you completely forget what you asked for!
The same goes for other activities you
may choose to engage in. Suppose that you
choose to go shopping for groceries after you
engaged in active manifestation. Instead of
doing what youve always done in the past,
which is to shop for groceries mindlessly,

127/159

going through the motions, while letting

your thoughts float to your usual worries or
desires make it a point to immerse yourself
completely in the shopping for groceries.
Notice the labels, the freshness of the produce, the texture, the sights, the sounds and
the colors. Notice things that you havent noticed before. Develop a genuine interest in
everything that goes on around you. Observe
people and their emotions. Feel happy for
them. When you engage yourself with full
awareness, when you are one hundred percent present in any moment you are living
to your fullest potential. You are engaged to
the maximum.
If you need to be in conversation with
someone, then become super aware and
present when youre having the conversation. Dont pretend to listen and let your
mind be somewhere else. No matter how
trivial or mundane the conversation may be,

128/159

be fully present and notice everything the

other person is saying. Notice the words
coming out of your mouth and how you formulate the responses in your mind. Notice
how much you are enjoying the interaction
and the conversation. This is the art of full
immersion, and the art of being completely
in the present moment.
Why is it important to live in this manner? You may think that all this is just a spiritual exercise, something which has been expounded and espoused by so many new-age
writers on being here now, or being fully
aware and present. But it is not just a newage fad or concept. This practice brings
about tangible benefits to your life. First,
youll notice yourself enjoying life more.
Youll be fully living and savoring each moment as it goes by instead of savoring only
half of the moment and spending the other
half in some imagined world of your

129/159

problems. Youll realize what it means to be

truly alive!
Ive always found it interesting that individuals especially in modern times have
taken to more and more extreme activities
that push the boundaries of excitement or
thrill. They have been increasingly willing to
go for adrenaline-rushing activities, all in the
name of seeking that new high. But do you
know why they are even seeking that high in
the first place? Many of them are looking for
sensory stimulation beyond what daily activities can provide. They want something that
can deliver them to a higher place of exhilaration and good feeling, hence all the almost
dangerous, daredevil and sometimes even illegal activities. Doing so is like trying to increase the flow of water when your pipes are
clogged by connecting it to larger and larger
pumps, when a simpler solution is just to

130/159

unclog the pipes or increase the size of the

pipelines.
An individual who is fully engaged in
very moment and who is always present feels
the full exhilaration and joy of life. That
sense of joy and enthusiasm is so intense and
overwhelming that it permeates every single
cell of your body. Its like the best feeling in
the world, and you can be immersed in it
round the clock if you want to. It is the Magic
Feeling that produces instant manifestations! Its the highest high one can possibly
get, and there is no limit to how good you
can feel. Once you realize this truth and experience this state that can be obtained from
turning inwards, youll not see the need to
engage in any of those outer activities just to
get that temporary high, or to make
something happen on the outside.

131/159

Perhaps the most counter-intuitive

realization about living in this manner is that
once you fully immerse yourself into each
present moment (not caring for either the future or the past), you dont even care about
whether your desires become manifest or
not. Youre too busy living in the now moment and feeling the good feelings of it to
care about the past or worry about the future! You start to find joy in everything that
you do, no matter how mundane it seems.
And because of your newfound attitude of
hootlessness and divine indifference, things
will then start happening for you. When you
truly give up caring whether youll get
everything youve asked for and just focus on
feeling good in each moment what you ask
for has to come.

Chapter 9 - The Universe

Holds

Your

Intentions

In

Escrow!
Just yesterday evening while spring
cleaning, I came across a beautiful golden
book of affirmations and intentions I had
written down many years ago. What surprised me as I flipped through the pages was
the number of intentions that manifested exactly the way I had written them. Reading
through what I had written brought back
many fond memories. Those desires came
true even though I had forgotten about the
notebook shortly after writing those intentions down over a period of several months
in my life, never to pick it up again until a
few years later. As Abraham-Hicks always
teach, our desires are held in escrow for us

133/159

until we are ready to receive them. We become ready by aligning with the vibrational
essence of what we are asking for. And so in
the moment we ask for something, it is done!
This example beautifully illustrates
that we only have to ask for our intentions
and desires only once. As long as we do so
and not contradict them through our own
manifestation stuck points, limiting beliefs
and counter-intentions, what we have asked
for is held in escrow for us until we are ready
for it. It is all lined up, waiting to be delivered. I would not have realized this point
so strongly had I not found this old notebook
of mine. Some of the intentions and desires
were long forgotten by me. I had forgotten
about the specifics and details of those intentions, and yet they were delivered to me in
perfect harmony and order! Truly, the Universe does not forget and always remembers
every little minute detail about what we have

134/159

asked for. We only have to be open to the

whole experience and trust. So dont worry
about keeping a book of your highest intentions and desires. If anything, those are for
your reference only. The Universe needs no
reminders.
After reading through the handwritten
notebook of beautiful intentions, I did
something which, a few short years ago,
would have been absolutely unthinkable! I
threw the book in the wastebasket, letting it
go from my life. A few years ago, I would
have held onto the notebook like it was a
precious treasure but I know today that the
lesson is complete. I truly understand the life
lessons and principles contained within this
experience that has come full circle. I noticed
that I peppered the front of the book with
proclamations to the Universe, on how I
hoped the Universe would deliver everything

135/159

written in the book to me in divine timing

and order.
But I need not have written those
words. I realize today that those words were
ultimately for my own understanding only.
They served only as a reminder to myself,
and not as a message to the Universe. The
Universe would have delivered whatever I
wanted in perfect divine timing and order
whether I made those statements or otherwise. How can it be done in any other way?
And hence, I made the decision to let the
book go from my life, because I know today
that the Universe always delivers whatever
we want to us in the most harmonious way
possible. There is no need to engage in any
outer actions such as repeatedly writing our
intentions down, reading them or keeping
the book close at hand.

136/159

There are many readers who ascribe

the magic to a particular notebook of intentions, or to certain words and phrases written down. There is value in all of those practices, but that is not where the magic truly
is. The magic resides in our own inner state,
and it is our non-resistive, light inner state
that makes things magnetically happen on
the outside. The power does not lie in a notebook of intentions which we write and keep
around. It does not lie in the repeated reading of what we have written down. As mentioned, all these repeated actions serve as reminders for ourselves only and for many,
they can be a source of comfort and motivation. However, if the repeated writing and
reading of affirmations stirs up feelings of
discomfort or discouragement for you then
you would certainly be better off without the
practice! Tailor your daily practice such that
it suits you, and makes you feel best. You can
live the rest of your life without engaging in

137/159

any of these outer-directed activities and still

have everything you want come true for you
in your life. These outer-directed actions are
always optional but the inner work is
mandatory.
When you first start living in this manner, by being fully present and immersed in
all of life and by eliminating any feelings of
worry or fear from your life youll start to
see changes quickly. At first (and actually instantly), the results you observe will be a
drastic change to the way you feel inside.
Youll feel emotionally freer and lighter, as if
that huge rock that has been weighing you
down in the past is now gone. You would feel
less self-conscious and you would also be
able to see the humor in a lot more situations. That is the immediate benefit of putting the 95-5 code in practice.

138/159

The second thing that will happen is

that manifestations will occur that seem to
be unrelated to the major things which you
are asking for. These smaller manifestations
will start popping up for you all over the
place and theyll keep happening over and
over again for you! For example, you may
have a thought of Wouldnt it be nice to dine
at this restaurant and have this experience
and the very next day, a friend invites you
out for dinner at this exact same restaurant!
None of this has to be forced. It all happens
naturally and spontaneously.
I hardly find myself in situations where
I have to queue. Everything is just smoothsailing and fast for me. I will go to a restaurant and there is a perfect spot ready for me,
with the perfect food on the menu. Ive also
noticed that after I sit down and order my
food that the restaurant fills up really fast!
These are the spontaneous little things, the

139/159

little miracles that give you an indication

that things are truly lining up. Another fun
experience Ive had was to feel like not going
for an appointment, and then have the other
person tell me he cant make it, without me
having to cancel the appointment. In other
words, the Universe precedes your desires
and delivers everything that is just right for
you, whether in physical objects or physical
experiences!
I am spending some time describing
what it feels like here because some of you
may be wondering when the big stuff is going to come. After so many years, Ive understood that when all the seemingly small
stuff starts lining up that is when a whole
lot of energy (and momentum) is moving all
that big stuff into place as well. Remember
that the size of our requests is only relative,
and the Universe does not discern between
any of those. So focus on your inner state

140/159

and what you do during 95% of your time,

and the Universe will take care of the rest. If
you find it difficult to keep your mind away
from your intentions and desires (or from
worrying about them), then use the full immersion technique that I shared in the previous chapter.
Immerse yourself completely in living
your life, and become extremely aware of
every single small detail and now moment
as you are going through the experience. Do
this for the next task, and then the next, and
the next and so on throughout the day. If
youll remind yourself to be fully engaged for
your normal waking activities, you will be
turning away so completely from what you
have asked for that the Universe is free to do
its planning and magic. The full immersion
technique focuses your attention on what
you can do. It focuses your attention on the
part of the equation which you can change,

141/159

which is living life the best you can, and taking care of whatever that comes up for you,
as it comes up. Resist the urge to check reality for signs of your manifestation. It is hard
for reality to change if you keep checking it.
Before using the full immersion technique, I was constantly sitting around waiting for the Universe to deliver the things
Ive asked for. I was constantly checking to
see if things have changed on the outside,
and if my stuff has arrived. Hence I would
engage in those active manifestation techniques, sit around and wait and then engage in those manifestation techniques some
more! You would think that my constant
asking for things would cause them to
come faster into my life but I can tell you
today that my life was at a complete standstill! Nothing creative or productive was happening! I can now see that an individual who
lives this way is not living his highest good as

142/159

intended, but is living a life completely

devoid of any creation. He thinks he is creating, when all he is doing is in fact creating
the same reality over and over again.
Therefore, do not dismiss any aspect of
your life as less important. Do your best and
take care of what needs to be done at hand.
Most individuals who start doing spiritual
manifestation work tend to see the rest of
their activities (their daily activities) as comparatively useless, and start focusing exclusively on the practice of whatever manifestation techniques. They start spending inordinate amounts of time on the 5 in the
95-5 code, thinking it is what makes all the
difference! That cannot be further from the
truth! Life is for your joyful moment-to-moment living, not to apply one manifestation
technique after another! Live the best you
can, with whatever you have on hand and
soon the Universe will deliver some surprises

143/159

to you in the most amazing way possible.

This quote by spiritual mystic Osho sums its
up perfectly: If you cannot be a creator, if
you cannot love work, if you cannot love life,
then the only possibility for you is just to be a
beggar.
Like everyone else, I have errands to
run, work to do, some activities arguably
more enjoyable than others. I have a life to
live. But I do all of them fully immersed and
engaged. Dont make the mistake of only doing things that you foresee can lead to a
manifestation. Dont discern between activities that make things happen, and those
that do not. Because at the end of the day,
how would you know? The Universe works in
mysterious ways and Ive been led on the
path by having things turn out completely
different from what was expected. So always
listen to your inner impulse and not base
your actions on whether they would

144/159

achieve something on the outside. Even the

mundane tasks are enjoyable because they
allow me to take my mind off things and become fully focused on whatever is at hand.
When I am so deeply immersed in the now
moment, I am alive. Immersing yourself fully
into the task at hand while you go about your
daily activities turns out to be an extremely
effective manifestation technique, as
counter-intuitive as it seems! It stops your
wandering mind from questioning when and
how something is going to come to you. It is
the best way to take care of the intervening
buffer time. If you will spend this buffer
time living life comfortably, you wouldnt
even mind the existence of it! It is only when
you sit around and wait that it becomes extremely glaring and sticks out like a sore
thumb. Have you ever sat around waiting for
a package to arrive in the mail? You know,
the why is it not here yet feeling and it does
drive us nuts! The simplest solution is just to

145/159

go do something distractingly fun in the

meantime!

Chapter 10 - Living The Way

Of The Great Master
For years, I heard Abraham-Hicks
teach that the only journey one has to ever
make is on the inside an inner journey.
The first time I heard it, I was extremely
skeptical and in disbelief about this claim.
What do you mean the only journey I have
to make is on the inside? Making all these inner changes is certainly not going to lead to
anything happening on the outside! I need to
go out there and start doing something! Now
show me what I have to do to get my stuff!
I continued to be stuck on this point
for many years. Until one day I finally realized through my life experience that its all
true. Every bit of it is true. The only journey
anyone has to make, to have anything

147/159

happen on the outside, is our inner journey

on the inside. While that sounds simple
enough to do, it is actually the most difficult journey to make sometimes even
more so than any outer journey we will
ever take because we are dealing with unchartered territory here. There are no ready
maps. Most of us do not even take the time
and effort to look inwards and make the
much-needed inner changes. Thats why the
good most people seek continue to remain
out of reach for many of them theyre unwilling to really look inside and make the inner changes. Once you really do the work, no
outer actions are necessary to make things
happen It is my absolute promise to you.
In the final chapter of this book, I
would like to take you through the profoundly simple three-part process again and
talk about a practical way to deal with problems and issues that crop up throughout the

148/159

day. When you first start practicing the 95-5

Code, the first thing youll invariably have to
deal with are nagging thoughts of what if
this does not work, or am I doing it the
right way? Know that all these thoughts result from past negative conditioning that have
been built up over a long period of time.
Hence, even though you may consciously decide today to live the 95-5 code, these
thoughts will still crop up in your conscious
awareness from time to time. How you deal
with them makes all the difference. With determination and practice, the frequency of
these negative interfering thoughts will be
reduced until you hardly get them at all.
For me, I go through my day with very few
negative thoughts popping into my conscious
awareness. If it does, I quickly acknowledge
it, recognize it for what it is, and send it back
to where it came from. In other words, I do
not entertain the thought nor allow myself to
be consumed by it. I do not allow these

149/159

negative thoughts to snowball. So at the beginning, you need to ensure that negative
thoughts do not get bigger and bigger, until
they consume the whole of your awareness.
It is natural to have worry thoughts, or
thoughts of things not working out especially
if you have been disappointed countless
times in the past. The mind always reverts to
what it knows and what it is familiar with.
Therefore, it keeps reminding you of the only
reality which it has known. Bear in mind that
you are on the brink of creating a whole new
reality for yourself now that will soon become the new reference point. Hence, one
practical way to deal with such worry
thoughts (as they come up) is to remind
yourself that the 5 in the 95-5 code is taking
care of all the details. Everything is being
taken care of, and there is nothing else I have
to do!

150/159

Whenever worry or fear thoughts came

up for me spontaneously, whenever I found
myself drifting off and worrying about
whether things were indeed happening on
the outside I would immediately remind
myself that the 5% of active manifestation
activities Ive done is taking charge of
everything. Keep doing this each time a
worry thought crops up for you, and theyll
not even pop up in time to come.
The converse is also true. If you keep
allowing yourself to believe in negative
thoughts when they come up, results will be
slow in coming for you simply because you
have not changed your inner state at all. I estimate that I probably had to remind myself
around twenty to fifty times each day when I
first started this process. You have to be relentless at changing your inner state if you
want lasting changes to happen. Each time
thoughts of what if this doesnt work crop

151/159

up, assure yourself that things are being

taken care of by the 5 in the 95-5 code
Then turn your mind away completely. Forget what you have asked for. You have done
all the asking, and it is done!
The second practical issue one may
have to deal with are actual problems and issues that crop up throughout the day. This is
different
from
spontaneous
negative
thoughts resulting from past conditioning, in
that these are related to certain existing conditions in your life. For example, you may
perceive a problem at work, or have a particular situation that needs to be urgently resolved. Your perception and noticing of this
situation stirs up negative and unpleasant
situations within you. Any situation that
brings up negative feelings and emotions
needs to be resolved, as those negative feelings and emotions will interfere with

152/159

physical manifestations in other areas of

your life as well but how do you go about
doing so?
A few rules of thumb are handy here. I
generally do not allow myself to stew over a
problem for long. The longer I allow myself
to brood over it, the worse I feel, and the
more negative energy I summon around the
issue. Recall that it only takes 17 seconds of
focused thought to set something into motion, so stewing over something for hours on
end can indeed result in something unwanted down the road, which then has to be
dealt with physically! While it may be difficult to do so in the beginning, you have to
give up your wanting to feel bad in order to welcome greater good and manifestations in your life. This means you must have
the willingness to look at the bigger picture.

153/159

Would you rather have your manifestations and all the good you have asked for or
allow yourself to stew and stay miserable on
something for a few days on end just to be
right? Once again, this is easier said than
done. Certain issues are so in-our-faces that
we sometimes miss the forest for the trees,
but that is where your determination and
discipline comes in. You must make feeling
good such an overriding priority for yourself
above everything else. You must condition
yourself to take the high road every single
time, even if it means letting the other person be right. Again, this is what AbrahamHicks mean when they say, Nothing is more
important than that I feel good.
I used to think that was such a narcissistic statement! I want my stuff, not just to
feel good all-day everyday! But I now know
how logical that statement by AbrahamHicks is, because feeling good is at the basis

154/159

of everything. When you feel good 95% of

your time, what you asked for during the
other 5% of the time HAS to come true! I
just cannot put enough emphasis on this.
Conversely, if you allow yourself to feel
miserable and lousy 95% of your time no
amount of concentrated visualization or affirming will be able to take care of the negativity generated during the majority of your
waking hours. Feeling good has to become
an overriding priority for you to the exclusion of everything else.
There will be situations in life (as you
put all of this into practice) that get on your
nerves. There will be situations that will test
everything that you have learnt up to this
point. There will be times you feel like giving
up. My own limits were tested with the earlier incident I recounted. But if you remind
yourself of these teachings often enough,
youll soon be able to recover from such

155/159

unpleasant situations quickly. Avoid situations that throw your inner state into
turmoil.
A while back I was ordering a piece of
furniture that failed to arrive on time, with
each party denying their responsibility. The
seller said they have already shipped it, while
the courier said it had already been delivered. Throughout the whole episode, I adopted the stance of a neutral observer with
the deep belief that everything was already
settled. I could have reverted to my old mode
of operation, which was to get angry at the
seller for not handling it well enough, or with
the courier for being so irresponsible. I could
have expressed my anger or taken it out on
them, but whats the use? They may have
been prodded into action, but that would
have thrown my inner state into turmoil too,
which can only lead to undesirable outcomes. Give up the need to be right, even if

156/159

you are right. Your feelings are letting you

know, in each moment, how things will turn
out. I decided that feeling good was so important to me that I wasnt going to let myself be bothered by any of it. I kept reminding myself that the Universe was taking care
of all my affairs, even when external evidence appeared to be on the contrary and
when it seemed I was going to lose my
money. I had such a sense of deep faith and
belief that even when I met up with the seller
to settle the incident, I thanked her genuinely and profusely for willing to work with
me. In return, she was very nice and helpful
about the whole incident, and even gave me
a free gift for my inconvenience. When you
make that inner journey and get past your
own manifestation stuck points, outer reality
reciprocates in the most unimaginable ways.
Throughout the 95% of your day, allow
everything that happens to be alright.

157/159

Remember Feeling good must be of overriding importance to you. So before you engage in any outer action, or go into any interaction with another person or thing, ask
yourself how it would make you feel. Ask
yourself how your inner state will change as
a result of the interaction. Does it make you
feel better or worse? If it makes you feel
worse, then dont do it! Dont do it just to
prove that youre right, or to prove your
point. Dont do something youll regret later
on, that youll eventually come to feel sorry
or guilty about. Dont! Just stay away from
all that. Take the high road, even if it means
letting the other person be right or letting
the other party have their way. Nothing is
more important than that you feel good, and
it is all that matters. If you want to be an effective manifestor, you have to go to great
lengths to maintain your inner composure
and state. You must allow yourself to be

imperturbable, despite of outer circumstances and situations.

When you get to that state of imperturbability and stay there when you make
feeling good 95% of the time your one and
only priority in your life everything happens and flows. Things you have asked for in
the past and long forgotten, things you have
barely asked for, and things you have not
even asked for! Because when you truly live
the 95-5 Code, the only thing you have to do
is to take things one step at a time, and the
rest will be done unto you.
As is so eloquently stated in the Tao Te
Ching by Lao Tzu, The great Master that is
the Tao does nothing, yet he leaves nothing
undone. And it is so!
