(8) Exchange Game
Choirs sing in opulent caverns beneath your desire, and in hidden cathedrals, the living dust of what will always find its way to you holds the lasts vestiges of lost intention, until they gather enough time and wisdom to return to the surface. Waiting in these places of silent grandeur are the realizations of another life, where you are free to apply yourself to the things that truly restore you: sitting in silence, following the ephemeral paths worn in the canyons of our collective mind, wandering mazes in the gardens of the stars, and like the stars, allowing yourself an existence where you are free to just be, where the only purpose assigned to you is to be as vibrant as possible. But here, you cannot allow such an existence to take form, because you cannot get paid to unravel. Yet that is precisely what is most needed in your life and in the world at this time, and the bindings are beginning to loosen on their own, regardless of what you do.
Think of all the things you have learned to do that support your vitality and wellbeing, but you are limited in how much time and energy you can devote to these things. Your time and energy has to go into the things you can receive support for doing, or the things you receive no support for, but you do simply because they must be done. Now, imagine that the universe is paying you to do all the things that restore your vitality, but it is not paying you in money. Instead, you are being paid in the form of dreams and visions flowing into your awakening heart, and it is these dreams and visions that are giving rise to changes in the world around you.
Here is an exercise, a game to play with reality, designed to trigger your beliefs about giving and receiving, and a way to practice manifesting. For every time you put your time into a personal wellbeing practice such as meditation or yoga, or something fun like taking a walk, going for a swim, exploring a museum, or any kind of activity that adds value to your life experience, but that you can't get paid to do, ask the universe to compensate you through some other means. Ask to see something manifested in your reality in return for the positive energy that you have summoned into your awareness. In exchange for meditating, say that you expect to find new trees being planted in your town. In exchange for going on walks, say you expect to meet a new friend within the next week. In exchange for drawing an image of a buffalo on the sidewalk with chalk, say you expect to see news that a large company is doing more to help the planet. In exchange for visualizing golden particles flowing from your heart and into the hearts of those who are beginning to awaken, say you expect to see a friend make a major breakthrough in their personal life.
And when none of these things happen, imagine that it happened. As vividly as possible, imagine how it might have played out. Replay the sequence of moments you just went through and recast them, where they played out differently and you discovered what you had been waiting for.
Make a statement of what you expect to see manifested, then be on the lookout for it. Be in anticipation of its arrival. Doing this will help bring to the surface subconscious ideas about what forms of effort have value, what the infinite universe is willing to respond to, and how summoning more positive energy into your grounded in the moment life experience serves as a kind of fuel for manifestation.
