Now, in your post, you said, 'I like the idea that thoughts have manifestational power, if you identify with them, give them emotion that is'. Now, I am already 100% certain that thoughts do have a manifestational quality to them. But I have recently begun to get the impression that we cannot just think/know something to bring that particular 'quality' out but we must apply focus AND apply the correct emotion to that thought. Hence my reference to 'More Than A Feeling'.

The more difficult part in all of this is actually figuring out what emotion to put behind each thought. I would think that the emotion of LOVE would be a strong contender for manifestation since what we give out, returns to us. Feelings of ANGER, HATE and REVENGE would also return to us if we gave out those emotions conjoined with our thoughts. What do you think of this?

I also agree with you 8-infinite-8 that indeed, giving negative thought patterns any kind of prolonged attention will only allow them to grow stronger and stronger. However, I also agree that a degree of observance must be allowed, as this will give us the opportunity to identify that particular thought as generally speaking, good or bad.

Thanks for reading, Kundalini.

Hi Kundalini,

I agree, Hate, revenge, & anger pretty much do manifest what you don't want, as you said : "Feelings of ANGER, HATE and REVENGE would also return to us if we gave out those emotions conjoined with our thoughts".
I think "conjoined with our thoughts" is the main thing, the emotions must be allowed the observer (you) for them to have manifestational power.
You're spot on.

The emotions I conjure up are ones of , Gratitude & Abundance & these emotions will attract more of the same.
Abundance can really mean many emotions, but, if you can know that you already have everything you ever need, without material objects, these kinds of emotions will come naturally. There will be more oportunities for feeling gratefull arising & also more oportunities for being joyfull as a result.

The main "problem", is that most people identify with all their thoughts so the universe is hearing these people saying : I command want, I command need, I command disease, I command poverty, I command war, etc., simply because they think, they are their thoughts, they're giving their thoughts manifesting power by identifying with them.
Which is almost funny in a sense.'

It's funny that you say " I have recently begun to get the impression that we cannot just think/know something to bring that particular 'quality' out but we must apply focus AND apply the correct emotion to that thought" .
Because, just recently have I begun affirming this & have found it very helpful also.

Thank you for reading
