Hello! This is Cynthia Sue Larson with
realityshifters.com, talking with you
today about a question that someone
asked me recently. Actually, several
people have been asking it, "What is the
difference between this Mandela Effect,
where Nelson Mandela has been reported
by some people to have died more than
once--and I'm one of those people who
remembers that he did pass away while
incarcerated in South Africa, and then
more recently just a few years back--
so what's the difference between that
Mandala Effect where we witness
alternate histories, and manifestation?"
The biggest difference that I would
say is happening between those two
things has to do with conscious intent.
And by that i mean when you are
intending something to be a certain
outcome, such as wishing, for example,
that you've had a good night's sleep even
though your sleep last night was
interrupted constantly by all sorts of
noise. And really, if you looked at how
long you'd slept, it was much less than
you know you need. But evidence suggests--
scientific evidence suggests--in recent
years that all you need to do is tell
yourself, "I had a good night's sleep last
night."
Keep repeating that to yourself. Say it
many times until you can start on some
level believing, "Maybe that's true." And
what's been proven scientifically is
that now, any kind of tests
that are run on you--whether those tests are
physical, mental--are
going to be showing the same kinds of
results as if you had had a good night's
sleep, compared to if you had a terribly
interrupted night sleep with less hours
than you need and you don't tell
yourself that.
So these are the kinds of things that
we're learning from placebo studies
which are being conducted at places like
Harvard's placebo institute study center,
and
other places around the world. So when we
look at these differences and say, OK,
with the manifestation--we're getting a
science of this. We're starting to see
how it is possible that we can actually
believe something and almost will it
into being through conscious intent. And
we're noticing that as I mention in my
new book, "Quantum Jumps," you can do all kinds
of things to increase your willpower,
your ability to think more clearly, even
your vision, your relationships, pretty
much you name it. There's a way
to actually improve your ability to do
better at almost anything just by
basically sheer power of intent, and
recognizing that is possible--that those
realities are already out there. That
helps. And I share some of the tips for
how to do that. Lots of people have
been manifesting with the so-called "Law
of Attraction." It's similar, and a little bit
different. Basically, this is one way
to look at how you can so-called "create
things," by attracting them. So then what's
going on with the Mandela Effect? It
seems to affect a lot more people. Groups
of people remember alternate histories.
And this is the sort of thing I
describe in my book, "Reality Shifts,"
which came out--the first version was
written in 1999--and this was many years
before the "Mandela Effect" was coined as
a term to describe basically the same
thing. Now, the Mandela Effect makes sense
if you might have noticed Nelson Mandela
being alive again. But some people who
are very close to that man, or lived in
South Africa, would definitely not relate
to that term. So "reality shifts" is a more
blanket term that I think fits the
phenomenon overall, including the "alive
again" phenomenon, and the fact that
products can change, movies can change,
books can change, history can change, and
people are noticing that--usually in
groups. I have conducted a couple of
surveys on this
exact thing to determine how people are
experiencing these shifts of reality. And
what I've noticed is that intent does
play a part in it. As we intend something,
then we start noticing these
manifestations or quantum jumps. And when
things just seem to change, almost on
their own--
we're noticing it collectively, often
with other people, with "reality shifts," or
what we call "the Mandela Effect." And so
the main difference on this
continuum of experience of noticing
alternate histories happens to be
conscious intent. And then a
correlated phenomenon is that the number
of people experiencing things tends to
be more people experiencing the reality
shifts--groups of people--whereas
often one person or fewer people
experience manifestation. And you can
think of that making sense too, with the
conscious intent factor, because it's
easier to bring people's intentions
together when you have a smaller group
or a smaller tribe working together. And
the reason you can see the viewpoint
that i express which is that there's a
continuum here--that this is all related
when you go from Mandela Effect to
manifestation--that the continuum is
happening. And it's visible when you notice
flip-flopping realities. And this would
be, for example, when my family and
various individuals in my family noticed
that our elderly dog sometimes appeared to
be getting cataracts in his eyes. And
each of us would notice that, and come
together to talk about it, and what I was
helping our family members do is
recognize that there is a flip-flop here.
Sometimes the dog looked like he had
cataracts; other times his
vision was fine. So I pointed this out to
all the members of the family, who were
noticing this, and
then the dog was fine. We all basically
were collectively noticing, "It's going back
and forth: let's choose that our dog has
good vision." And he did. And so what helps
lock something like that in, when you're
doing a conscious intent and you're
moving toward the quantum jumps, is that
you need to align your heart, your head,
and your subconscious. All of you.
This means doing your spiritual work.
Being a good person. Being kind to others.
So that you're not working at odds within
yourself and within the community.
When you do that, then you can work
together with others, and keep finding
how good things can get collectively. So
this is just a high-level exploration
into manifestation and the Mandela Effect
in the continuum that I feel these
things are on, as we wake up to the
global quality of how we are all
connected, both as humanity and in
planet consciousness. Together we can
start collectively collaborating toward
bringing into being more and more
positive realities, and noticing
collectively that we can flip-flop
between realities and bring something
into being that's positive. So until next
time, this is Cynthia Sue Larson with
realityshifters.com asking you to keep
asking my favorite question, "How good can
it get?"
Thanks so much!
