The Importance of Proper Intention

The first rung of the ladder of energetic accomplishment is Inspiration. For the moment, let's assume that you have been sufficiently inspired to accomplish something. The second rung is Intention. This is a critically important step.

 

You may be inspired to achieve either large or small things. It could be as large as making your first million dollars or as day-to-day as putting on your shoes. All actions should start with proper intention. Proper intention is much more than "making up your mind" to do something. That is an activity of the word-thinking mind and really is not what proper intention is about. Have you ever noticed how far the distance is between wanting to do something, making up your mind to do it, and actually getting it done? True proper intention is closer to what the Buddhists call "mindfulness". This mindfulness is intense awareness of what you are doing and why you are doing it in a self-reflective process. The essence of mindfulness can be seen in the Japanese Tea Ceremony, where each movement is carefully and precisely performed with proper intention.

 

Proper Intention is critical in any type of activity with energetic devices. Many people would comment that everything is an energy device. That is certainly correct, but for the moment lets just consider any device that you are using with the Inspiration to accomplish a specific energetic purpose. This might be the use of a Crystal Mandala or Serpentine Pyramid to energetically charge water. It might be the use of 8ight discs to restore balance to your energy or give you additional energy.  It might be an acupuncture needle to use in treatment. It might be a particular piece of crystal jewelry. These types of devices are literally "tuned" by intention. They will take on the energetic information signal from the combined mental energy of the people who are involved with them. That means that if you or other people express negativity in relation to these energetic tools, they will begin to reflect that negativity. It is critically important for you to consider where energetic tools are made, who made them, who distributed them, and the community of people around them, even before they got into your hands. The energetic intentions of those people impact the tools.

 

Setting intention properly is like building a muscle. Doing one repetition of an exercise will accomplish very little. You need to do several repetitions over long periods of time. In the same way, proper intention involves being mindful about an activity over and over again. This is the basis of spiritual rituals. When you are about to take an action mindfully be aware of what you are doing and why you are doing it. For example, if you are about to place 8ight discs on the recommended Lung points on the chest, then mindfully say to yourself.

These discs are being cleared of any negative energetic information that they may contain. Nothing but positive energetic information comes from the discs and into my own energy field. I place them on the Lung points in order to give me greater energy and to balance my Lung meridian energy for my best good and to strengthen my lungs and my immune system.

Anything that increases the intensity of your mindfulness may be added. For example, you may wish to burn a little white sage to help clear away any negative energy. If you like, you may ask for assistance from the angelic or spiritual beings that you prefer. Doing this every day will bring incredible energy to your proper intention.

 

Daily affirmations are another powerful way to set intention properly. A few examples are.

I open myself to all positive energetic information from the Universal Blueprint. This information will harmonize my physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual energetic bodies.

 

I am worthy to always receive health and happiness in abundance.

You can easily begin to set intention properly with a few simple steps.

  1. Write down the affirmations that you will say on a daily basis.

  2. Write down the proper intention statements for the activities you undertake on a routine daily basis.

  3. Every morning and evening say the affirmations. It may help to look in a mirror.

  4. Every time you undertake an action say the proper intention statement.

The key to success is to be focused and mindful. Do not simply robotically repeat the words you wrote down while you are hurrying to watch a television show. Take your time. Feel the energy. Change the words a bit if the energy feels right. This will make a remarkable difference in your life and in your ability to successfully use energy tools.
