I've been tweaking my manifestation skills and toolbox lately. A friend of mine lent me Bentinho Massaro's book, Super Accelerated Living: How to Manifest an Epic Life. It's drastically different in tone and method from Abraham-Hicks' teachings.
This book is forceful. You are creator. You're not a receiver.
I went to an Abraham-Hicks meet up last night and was really quite struck by how big a part of their teachings "receiving" is. It really is quite an odd concept when you think about it. We are creator. We are source energy. We're made of the energy that creates worlds. So what would we "receive?"
This is a pretty giant tweak.
Indeed, with Abrham-Hicks' teachings I was doing a whole lot of waiting around. Now, they do not teach no action. That is a misconception that I always find myself correcting in people.
However,
Receiving is a key part of their teachings.
And when I started applying Bentinho's method, I found myself much more effective. I found myself much more confident in getting results. In fact, not confident. No. You just command it, and then you know that it's happened because it must. It doesn't have an option.
He tells you to force yourself on your surroundings. Because there are no outside surroundings. It's all you. He goes to great lengths to shock you into groking this because we have been victims and "receivers" for so long.
Abraham's teachings and all spiritual knowledge says that we are all one; everything is source energy; nothing is separate from us. But it's a little hard to grasp, isn't it? Not so much when Bentinho shocks you into forcing yourself onto the things around you and pasting what you want on your reality. He says there's no room for anything but. You demand and command that your reality be nothing but you want it to be. You force it. You see nothing else. It's a pretty high energetic experience when I do it. And I have to say, it feels much more effective. When compared, Abraham's teachings feel lackadaisical.
I don't think when Source (you) created planet earth that you received it or waited.
Receiving feels a whole lot less powerful, doesn't it? In fact, it doesn't feel powerful at all.
You're the creator of your universe. Well, a creator of a universe doesn't receive. They command it and it is. It must be.
Bentinho's book is very strong and forceful. It feels like the masculine counterpart to Abraham-Hicks' work. I found at my meet up that I did feel very refreshed and nurtured there. I think both of these methods are extremely useful. I think it's really helpful to study both of these teachers deeply and really grok the teachings.
I'm going through Super Accelerated Living slowly. There are parts I'm having a hard time with like how in the beginning he teaches that all that's real in our relationship with a person is our experience of them. It's very sociopathic and solipsistic in the beginning. It really challenges you and takes getting used to.
Take this quote from Matt Kahn's teachings in Whatever Arises, Love That for example: "While it appears as if we inhabit the same planet, everyone lives in their own version of it. The assumption that the world you see is the only one existing is a limiting belief held together by an attachment to ego." It's palatable when Matt Kahn says it.
Listen to the way Bentinho says it:
"What if this dream reality has always already been 100% your manifestation-every single detail of it? Not just how you respond to things, but the things themselves; this very chair that I'm sitting on is you placing it under my butt. All the time, billions of times per second, you are placing the chair underneath me. What if it was you doing that? What if you were not receiving that? What if this was not external to you-what if there is no external reality whatsoever?"
That's a little harder to take, isn't it?
When combined with what I've been implementing of Donny Epstein's teachings of being Energy Rich and Claiming Extraordinary, I now feel like a very competent creator.
I highly recommend studying Bentinho Massaro's work and what I share here of Donny Epstein's teachings to really advance yourself as powerful creator. Abraham-Hicks is a truly magnificent and amazing teacher, but it is life changing to get other people's perspectives and try and practice them.
