I quit smoking in 2007 because I started saying I'm a non smoker if friends offered me smokes or if I had a craving. I stopped saying I quit smoking or I am trying to quit. Been smoke free since!
I think it is Crowley who said something along the lines of always engaging yourself in the exact opposite of any negative thought you might have.. Excellent series mate, thank you!
Hey man I just wanted to thank you so much for all of your videos! Crazy to me yesterday, while I was watching your video, you mentioned thinking of a color, and I thought about orange juice, and a moment after that thought, you mentioned orange. Today, while I was watching this video, and you we're talking about how we should pray for what we do want, and not what we don't want. I was thinking about the Lord's prayer, and boom, a moment later, you mentioned it.
The universe is a waiter who takes your order. If you're constantly thinking or talking negatively you will get that on a platter. If you think positively you will receive just that, positivity.
this makes me think about how negative and miserable people always tend to ruminate on things that hurt them or that they are afraid will hurt them in the future, to the point where it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy because everything around them seems as a potential threat, which then closes themselves off from anything that could be threatening that also provides a lot of benefit. Even when those benefits far outweighs the threat in terms of likeliness and weight of significance. It makes me think of this in particular because of how common negative thoughts are becoming and even becoming acceptable, to the point where people are desiring conflict and trauma so that they can be used for both sympathy and as social leverage. No one I know who has been caught in this kind of pattern as grown up (or is grown) as a full person. Always lacking in something, almost always miserable. Blaming external circumstances (while some might be true) unable to see who their own inner dialogue and that they use with other people, is directly impacting the decisions they make and how they feel about themselves and the world.
Any policeman will tell you; In an accident, most people actually LOOK at the thing they want to avoid and thus end up hitting it. How often people's minds work like that and so the holographic trajection of their reality naturally follows where they are focusing. That is how our reality works. The physicality of the atom is but 1% of its existence, and the human mind has power over the 1%, if it can ascend beyond negativity. Just focusing on where you do want to get to makes a big difference, Sure you get doubts creeping into your mind, but work with your consciousness to dissolve them as an illusion and you'll be surprised at how much more that you can achieve. If you ever speak to anyone who is successful in any given field, they will tell you they never doubted they would get there and kept working on it until they did.
Right?! Driving on the highways here there are times you will encounter this barricade called a jersey wall. They are real thin and placed right on the shoulder, not giving you a lot of clearance between the jersey wall and the side of your vehicle. Anyway, what you say is completely true.. If you focus on the wall, no matter how much you struggle against it, you will always inevitably slowly drift towards it, constantly having to correct your steering straight again. It is such a good metaphor for life. Whatever you focus on, for better or worse, you will always move towards.
My thoughts on the matter, greatly informed by what you’ve said here. Thank you Fish. I have the ability to generate any outcome. What outcome is generated is determined by the energy I put into it. Even my “ideal” outcome can be experienced as a negative reality if the energy put in is negative. Further, aligning with God’s will for ones life is in essence aligning the energy of our intention with God’s, “a plan for good, and not evil” so to speak.
Yes I always do my spell work phrased positively - indeed I do strive to live my whole life utilising positive verbage- I find it as grating as nails on a blackboard when people around me speak negatively and I instinctively immediately tried to re-couch in a positive frame.
Why we should reform our speech to the positive. What we attend to grows. If we are prescribing value to our vocabulary we should know when and how to do it. This will allow us to use this thought mechanism to our benefit.
That's really interesting how you put it in the context of quitting smoking.. I quit smoking, as well as a number of other things, 2 years ago. I did something similar. I completely removed the entire concept of being someone who is 'quitting', or 'trying to quit'. I felt like that line of thinking would perpetually keep me in a state of limbo where I was forever attempting to escape from the addiction, but never quit getting there. Rather than that, in my mind and of my spoken language, I became someone who just didn't smoke. I had similar success quitting a much more insidious, dangerous and destructive substance just past 2 years ago as well. 746 days from today in fact. I did it the same way, I wouldn't think or talk about how I was trying to quit, I would only refer to kicking the habit as something that I already did, past tense, and now I was living my life free from that prison. I can't even begin to describe how amazing it is to live without carrying those chains around with me everywhere, I have such gratitude to have made it out alive that I wake up every morning with a smile. That's why I put the title of demon slayer in my name, because I quite literally faced my demons, and beat them.
Completely agree. What you focus on you give energy to. Your earlier video on manifestation and quantum theory is the first time I got the “mechanics” of why. Gratitude is a great antidote to negativity and is a really wonderful habit to get into.
Sorchá, 🧛🏻♀️✨🔮🌛🌕🌜🕸️🕷️💜 Practising Witch from Edinburgh UK. Loving your channel and teachings! Found this so greatly correct, and so true. We must put things out in a positive speech. Hugely important and does make a difference! Manifest things FABULOUSLY!✨
Fantastic video as always. Malimg my way through the series. This one reminded me of the idea that the "War on Drugs" or "War on poverty" never work because its inherently negative. Instead of fighting the things we dont want we should welcome the things we do want.
I've known for quite some time that symbolism and language holds much power. But I rarely practiced it. I am going to be sure to remember some of the prayers and change the wording. My mother-in-law as a therapist and as much as I do not believe in Psychology or therapy I believe there is something to be learned. This is an awesome video keep it up
I have watched all thre of the language videoes and I have to say I love the tools you have given me to help me improve my thinking and what I manifest. Thank you
Fantastic video and well explained. I think this couples very well with the notion of NLP and removing not only self-deprecating statements from our internal narrative, but also the 'buts' and 'can'ts' from our everyday conversation 😊
As someone who struggles deeply with some ratchet grudges/resentments, I think this is right. You shouldn't "forgive' a person, which is to say, exculpate a bad thing that occurred, so much as as for grace. Grace to receive from the divine, and the gift of giving it. Then your forgiveness isn't really about excusing a thing, so much as realizing that it doesn't matter and that the higher self would have you love as unconditionally as possible. In other words, the insult loses it's power of you and you pay it no more attention.
It reminds me of dealing with children, particularly children with special needs. To give a real incident as an example: The child picked up a large stone and the adult shouted “don’t throw the stone!” The child threw the stone and broke a car window. Because all that got through to child was “….throw the stone!” When dealing with children you learn to say “Put the stone down please.” That’s the way we need to talk to ourselves, our subconscious, the universe, the divine.
As a person of faith I have learnt that using positive words as well as nice words help in situations and that every word spoken is powerful to the betterment or in the case of bad words to the detriment. Rather like our thoughts and emotions and exercise and relaxation. The facial expressions denote our feelings and just by altering our expression can change our mood in an instant. I have seen videos of sounds being played to water and plants and good words have a dramatic effect on them as do bad words. So I think your idea of thinking positively on a task creates that's better tone and vibe to reach out to eradicate the bad. Pray is powerful and to counteract the wanting of good is always to say also of staving off the bad/evil. This is common acknowledgment of what you don't want as it's just as important.
Through you, I feel happy because you are exciting my interest in esotericism. A topic, I’ve given zero attention so far in my life. Not now though.🙃🤔😱😇☸️
This one of the reasons that when teaching children, particularly about those things they need to know to protect them from harm, like not stepping off the curb in front of a car, etc. it is critical to use positives. I am not certain what the age is but I believe it is up to 4 years they are like the subconscious, they don't hear the "no" or negative, so that it you say "do not touch the stove," they hear "touch the stove." Related to this, I have also found that Binah is quite literal; creative, romantic etc. but quite literal. A few years ago I was trying to enhance my immune system beyond proper eating, sleeping vitamins, etc. I gave an image to my subconscious of a great knight in shining armor with a great sword fighting off and destroying all the winter viruses that cause routine colds and sniffles. Wrong image. Fighting is what I got, until I realized that the symptoms, the sickness are precisely the fight. So up to that point I had a bad winter, more colds and headaches than I had had in awhile. When I figured it out, I changed the image to that of sickness-free, healthy and happy winter wherein my immune system took care of the viruses before they had a chance to get started. That solved the problem. So I guess the lesson is knowledge is very important and be careful what you ask for because you might just get it.
I want to be free from nicotine, so the example you gave is spot on ;) I think that focusing on what we don't want automatically brings to mind negative emotions associated with it, and as a result emotions don't align with the intent and we send a mixed message that cancels itself out. When mind and body (emotions) are in tune, the signal is amplified.
Your method of giving up smoking is now I finally stopped biting my nails. My whole life I kept telling myself “I don’t want to bite my nails,” but I only succeeded when I started saying to myself, “I want to grow my nails out.” Haven’t bitten them for 4 years now after a lifetime.
I saw a stop sign that was vandalized similarly to your thumbnail. The "artist" had blanked out the letters with a red spray paint and wrote over it: GO!. it was hilarious.
What you say makes so much sense, I want to be a non smoker . I have returned to smoking but lately I believe it no longer serves me in any way . Thank you for these videos.
I came to the same findings regarding the use of language after studying the Bible, NLP, and various other metaphysical concepts like LOA, and authors (Napolion Hill, Neville Goddard, etc). An emphasis on 'specificity', and 'positive communication' vs 'negative communication' is a thread that runs common through many spritual and physiological practices and techniques. Mental imagery and emotion are the language of the subconcious, physical words are just the containers/carrier for those mental images. For one to create in this reality one must first form or choose the 'specifc thought' or 'mental picture' to be made manifest. 'Contrast', is a tool that can be useful or even necessary for many who have not mastered the 'art' of knowing what the correct positive affirmation is. So as in example, throughout the Bible, when instruction is given, it is common for those instructions to include 'contrast', such as "don't do this, BUT instead DO this". 'Contrast' can be useful in bringing higher degrees of specificity and clarity to those who still need a guide to help narrow down the intended mental or energetic target. When dealing with any form of contrast it is not the passing 'negative thought' or occasional acknowledgement of an undesireable state that is the issue, it is the 'dwelling', domination, repitition, or interpetation of the negative thoughts that causes the images of mind to crystallize, or be reflected back via reality. The same principals apply, irrespective of the polarity of ones thinking; the seed of any sustained thought will produce an outward manifestation. The goal is to be intentional and deliberate with the seeds that you allow to grow in your mental garden.
I think that may be why Jesus gave us the Golden Rule precept in the Gospel of Matthew (7:12): “In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”.Much more positive view/take on things.
I think humans simply have a bias towards negatives, so it is much easier to believe that what you don't want will manifest vs what you do want. In the Lord's prayer, He covers the whole spectrum, identifying what is unwanted while affirming what is wanted. I think best practices is using broad negatives and specific positives together.
just to add to your point it is actually not a natural human reaction to think negatively. The deceiver, of which is only ever one's self, would lead one to believe this to be true. The collective human negative thinking is a habit built upon societal programming and consistent conditioning. As we continue to live in these environments, displaced often from self, we produce an overcasts - almost a cloud of negativity - as we are beings that make metaphysical connection just as much (if not more) than we do physical. Initially this overcast would have been positive but as more and more negativity is recycled negativitiy becomes the base frequency of this network space.
The process of what you are describing is eerily similar to the Teachings of Abraham Hicks and the Law of attraction. She keeps repeating in her workshops and books that we identify that which we do not want by feeling what feels bad, and then counter it by feeling and thinking from that point of what we do want and focus on that instead. Abraham Hicks calls it to align yourself with your "emotional guidance system". One exercise they share is called Pivoting which is very similar to this, but there are many more exercises to choose from.
If the divine speaks the language of symbol, imagery and emotion... imagine if you made a really accurate symbolic representation of a desire while holding the emotions relevant to that desire while looking at the symbol/imagery of your desire. Oops, that’s basically Magick! Isn’t it weird that these things usually work (time wise) in terms of 3. 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months... any idea why that is? Great vid! As always. Thanks
Two very good points. I've not read Psychomagic by Alejandro Jodorowsky, but my understanding is that it is quite pointedly on the topic of using the language of dreams in magic. Seems very weird and very wonderful! And yes, the 3 thing seems to be a constant for forming and for breaking habits which is why I'm always wary of doing anything for more than two days in a row of I'm not comfortable with the idea of doing it long term...
Thesis, Antithesis and Synthesis. The father, the mother and the son. Consciousness splitting into Yin and Yang. The number 3 is in every process of self reflection, self realization, reproduction and therefore key in a magick ritual, as magick is the act of actualizing a desire into perceived existence. This actualization involves the magician (the father) using imagination, will or creativity onto Consciousness (the mother) in order to create the desired event (the son).
I think the reason why is because our subconscious mind thinks in images or movies (imagination/visualisation)and feelings (cuz its our senses). So if we think of not wanting something, we are picturing that very thing we dont want. Instead if imagine what we do want we set the aim for that to our subconscious mind
Once again thank you for your amazing work x Hope you dont mind that I have been sharing a lot of your content to my UNIFYD SOCIAL group CONSCIOUS CONNECTIONS because to me the value of your knowledge and work is absolutely priceless x❤🙏💜🙏💙🙏❤
I really enjoy your take on things. Language matters a lot, I think. There are examples throughout my life, looking backwards, where I have created my reality through inadvertent words, pronouncements and discussions. I feel that it is important to pause before you make big pronouncements, especially those that may have a negative connotation or view of a negative future, even if they are only a ‘possible future’. Emotions are powerful, but I believe that negative emotions are particularly powerful and my experience is that they very quickly solidify your future. In contrast, positive emotion in the words that you utter seem, at least to me, to require some degree of continued reinforcement, at least now that I am older and have a lot of other baggage in the back of my mind. This can all be seen and experienced personally, or by watching people that have more authority than I do. The more that you feel doubt about what you say, the less likely that they will occur, but the more you are emotionally worried or invested in them, the more they seem to come true. Thank you for your excellent series of recordings. It is helping me a lot.
Hey there FF. having just found your channel, would like to say thank you. Re these two examples of Jesus teachings...I have also been taught the idea of positive framing of intent and it has been a powerful tool, with some interesting results. However, the more I explore my reality from the scientific/philosophical/neural/spiritual aspects, the more I have realised that the integration of both aspects of the polarity of any energy construct are first required to be balanced, before switching the consciously chosen direction. In other words a wave cancellation needs to occur first, to make the space for subsequent new construct with reduced interference....ie clarity. So watching this video was profound timing for me. If we notice, in both examples, Jesus integrates both negative and positive aspect, leading in with the negative, then exiting with the positive. I think that has more power in reality because it acts as the depolarisation cleansing first, and then the echo of the last statement remaining in consciousness, the positive aspect, will take hold. If we only frame positively at all, we are attempting to cause singular wave interference on what is already a chaotic storm. Will that even register ? Because reality (and physics) is only ever relative, and hence subjective, if we make a small splash in a very still lake, it has much larger effect than even a considerable splash in a gigantic ocean swell. The phase cancellation then creates the stillness of the lake. I am going to put this more into practice and see how it turns out.
I remember thinking a few years ago that there was a connection to the increase in anxiety disorders , because of the 'words "protect us from all anxiety" that were added to the prayer in chruch.
Hello. Hope I'm not too late for a comment. I'm a pretty new subscriber so I'm poring through your back catalogue. Re positivity: I have heard it said that worrying is praying for what you don't want. Also, a current translation of the Lord's Prayer is "Save us from the time of trial" rather than the "Lead us not..." Much more positive.😊
Great video. The positive way of expressing oneself is the "magic ingredient" of hypnosis. The inconscious mind don"t know how to behave with "don't", so if you formulate something negatively it behaves in opposite directions, as you pointed it with the "I don't want to smoke" understood as "i want smoke". I really love the hypnosis magic connexions, the trance state are similars and connected to chamanism, too.
I think I understand. To me it's similar to someone saying "Whatever you do, don't think about elephants" Which is ridiculous because in order for your brain to process that, you have to have idea of elephants in mind to begin with to be able to negate that thought.
I heard Lon Milo Duquette speak about prayer on a podcast recently. He suggested that being in a feeling of awe when praying is key. It's perhaps obvious to some people, to me it is the best advice concerning this important activity.
The universe or divine the place were prayer's are sent to DO NOT understand don't wont cant type of words (contractions (i think)). Only understand action words is my belief...well something like that...thats not 100%accurate but is in the right direction . thank you kind sir for not charging people for knowledge only YOUR type of people are this way. Kind. Considerate. Courteous
I love this series of videos. I have encountered these ideas by Neville Goddard's lectures. God is your wonderful human imagination. I'd like to ask: if a circumstance is taking up the entire world, such that it seems that is all anyone talks about and focuses on, what's the best way to remove it? Let's pretend that the world was dystopic. How would one remove the dystopia? I have several ideas but I often realize that, even though "I only hear good news" can become true, it doesn't mean the "dystopia" is dissolved. And aside from simply asking God's Angels to come and cleanse the earth of whatever it is that I don't like about the world, I have no idea what affirmation or visualization I can use that is 1) positive, and 2) definitely implies the dissolution of the bad things.
I think a lot of this can be thought of through the original operations of separation. God says "I AM" but without "I am not" He is stuck in an eternal loop, so thus, this "NOT" must come forward, but to know what your are not, you must first understand the "NOT". As a result, this leads to an exploration of this "NOT" meaning "Okay, so I am not X, so let's explore this X fully to understand why it is not like me" I dunno what tradition this idea best fits into, but it's what felt right to say as a response.
I use negative requests to limit the scope of the power... I may want money, but not at the expense of my relatives or health.. not sure if everyone else has this issue, at least to the same extent..
Im watching your videos to learn more about chaos magic(k) whilst I am a deeply unspiritual person and wouldnt really ever believe in such things they are very informative in learning about the subject, like some sort of "atheist theologist" haha- Your voice is really calming, makes your videos very watchable
I always was happy knowing there was some force or flow to the universe...but after asking from the whole truth... my bad...lol... I was given experiences that make me know we have a creator God and that the Bible is literally true... Nothing like not having to eat, sleep or even drink for 2 months to convince one of a different reality...lol..
Here is The Lord’s Prayer: from the original Aramaic; Translation by Neil Douglas-Klotz in Prayers of the Cosmos The one you are referring to is an inverted version that serves a particular purpose. Just like the inverted Matrix. -- O Birther! Father- Mother of the Cosmos Focus your light within us - make it useful. Create your reign of unity now- through our fiery hearts and willing hands Help us love beyond our ideals and sprout acts of compassion for all creatures. Animate the earth within us: we then feel the Wisdom underneath supporting all. Untangle the knots within so that we can mend our hearts’ simple ties to each other. Don’t let surface things delude us, But free us from what holds us back from our true purpose. Out of you, the astonishing fire, Returning light and sound to the cosmos. Amen.
I agree once when I was young I used to pray positively that I want a chocolate and I would get it . I was amazed 😄 thx for the info Ps : I read the book called the "power of your subconscious mind " I think the topics R related
I've lent all my NLP books and never got them back, which is why I didn't use them as a background for this video, but you're absolutely right! NLP is incredibly powerful, a real gift to the world! But so maligned...
Hi there! I really enjoy your way of interpretation and want to thank you!!! It seems to me that this has to do a lot with the law of attraction! What would your suggestion be for someone looking to do something very very simple regarding attracting their wishes??
Perhaps one way to considering the proper language you suggest would be that we have human made words and they are used to describe images. Using the word not evokes the same image. Like when they say if I tell you don’t think of a pink elephant you are already thinking of a pink elephant. So divinity responding to your thought images sees that as you desiring a pink elephant.
Is there some esoteric method of musical Harmony or theory? If so does anyone know any readings? I'm quite ignorant on esoteric matters, although as a musician my mind immediately went to all the liturgic hymns, chants, missae, motets etc. What are prayers if not a form of incantation? So I find very strange this lack or overlook of such a powerful tool as music in this practice.
Hi FF. Your copy of the Bible in this video is beautiful. I wonder where can I buy one like that? I'm not a christian, but I am thinking in getting a new bible for my own study. Any recommendation will highly be appreciated. Thx
I think it's out of print by now, you can do a google search for the Barnes and Noble Leartherbound Collectors' edition of the Bible and see what suggestions you get - good luck!
In Rudolph Steiner's, "The Fifth Gospel", which is his Akashic Records reading of Jesus's life, he writes (page 51) how the Zarathustra-I now Jesus at age 24, heard the ancient prayer of "the Bath Kol" and these words: "Amen. The evil holds sway, Witness of egoity freeing itself. Selfhood guilt through others incurred, Experienced in the daily bread, Wherein the will of the heavens does not rule, Because man separated himself from your realm, And forgot your names, You Fathers in the Heavens." So, Jesus took a known prayer, "the Bath Kol" and turned it around so it would have positive connotations rather than negative ones.
THE LORDS PRAYER (translated from Syriac Aramaic) O Thou, the breath, the light of all Let this light create a heart-shrine within And thy counsel rule till Oneness guides all Thy one desire then acts with ours As in all light, so in all forms Grant what we need each day, in bread and insight Loose the cords of mistakes binding us As we release the strands we hold of others faults Don’t let surface things delude us But keep us from unripe acts To you belongs the ruling mind The life that can act and do The song that beautifies all From age to age it renews In faith I will be true I came across this whilst training with the National Federation of spiritual healers in the 1990s, not sure of the literary source just felt it was relevant to the subject matter and hopefully of interest to folks 🙂
@@FoolishFishBooks My pleasure glad you like it. Might be worth checking out the Gnostic Gospels as a source... but you are the expert 🙂 As long as we keep on circulating the wisdom it’s all in the field anyway! Much appreciate your hard work and the sharing of your experiences🙏
look up split brain experiments everyone. we live in such a left brain world, but we must not be half our minds, use and practice mental working with the right cerebrum too. try expressing with the left what the right "says" and try expressing what the left says with the right. very challenging and possibly completely impossible and if so it is necessary to think and live in both. - this came from my left brain
But by the same token, if we are trying to be as specific as possible with language, then wouldn't it be better to avoid phrases such as "I want" altogether and instead phrase petitions either as if they are in the imperative mood (like prayers in the Bible) or are already reality. Rather than saying "I want to breathe fresh air" or "I want to quit smoking" wouldn't it be even stronger to say "I breathe fresh air" or "my lungs are smoke free" or "deliver me from smoking"? If you think about it, saying you want something is not technically the same as requesting/demanding it, nor is it declaring it a reality, it is simply stating that you are "in want". In other words, by focusing too much on the idea of wanting rather than the actual thing you want, then all you risk receiving is more feelings of wanting. Wouldn't it be stronger to say "this is reality" or "deliver this reality" instead of "I want this reality"?
This is off topic. When we tell kids "don't do that" then children get stressed, or resist us and continue the behavior. Versus when we guide them with what "to do" then we will likely see a completely different response. (=:)
Unfortunately, with that statement, you'll end up *_wanting_* more money, not having more money... But I wonder what results something like "I don't have a mountain of gold' would produce ...

I’m on board. I think of it as, divinity communicates via pattern - and it’s a two way communication.
Yes! The response is similarly symbolic ❤️ Very useful precision to point out, thank you!
My thoughts on the matter, greatly informed by what you’ve said here. Thank you Fish.
I have the ability to generate any outcome. What outcome is generated is determined by the energy I put into it. Even my “ideal” outcome can be experienced as a negative reality if the energy put in is negative. Further, aligning with God’s will for ones life is in essence aligning the energy of our intention with God’s, “a plan for good, and not evil” so to speak.

Why we should reform our speech to the positive. What we attend to grows. If we are prescribing value to our vocabulary we should know when and how to do it. This will allow us to use this thought mechanism to our benefit.
That's really interesting how you put it in the context of quitting smoking.. I quit smoking, as well as a number of other things, 2 years ago. I did something similar. I completely removed the entire concept of being someone who is 'quitting', or 'trying to quit'. I felt like that line of thinking would perpetually keep me in a state of limbo where I was forever attempting to escape from the addiction, but never quit getting there. Rather than that, in my mind and of my spoken language, I became someone who just didn't smoke.
I had similar success quitting a much more insidious, dangerous and destructive substance just past 2 years ago as well. 746 days from today in fact. I did it the same way, I wouldn't think or talk about how I was trying to quit, I would only refer to kicking the habit as something that I already did, past tense, and now I was living my life free from that prison.
I can't even begin to describe how amazing it is to live without carrying those chains around with me everywhere, I have such gratitude to have made it out alive that I wake up every morning with a smile.
That's why I put the title of demon slayer in my name, because I quite literally faced my demons, and beat them.
Beautiful story 👏 congratulations on your success and achieving your mind's/heart's desires !
Completely agree. What you focus on you give energy to. Your earlier video on manifestation and quantum theory is the first time I got the “mechanics” of why. Gratitude is a great antidote to negativity and is a really wonderful habit to get into.
Thanks for pointing that out, not enough is said about being in a state of gratitude 🙏, I try to live in it habitually and believe it helps.

Loving your channel and teachings! Found this so greatly correct, and so true. We must put things out in a positive speech. Hugely important and does make a difference!
Manifest things FABULOUSLY!✨
I will breath fresh air as of as possible. I will consume only that which nourishes my Spirit Soul and Body.
Fantastic video as always. Malimg my way through the series. This one reminded me of the idea that the "War on Drugs" or "War on poverty" never work because its inherently negative. Instead of fighting the things we dont want we should welcome the things we do want.
I've known for quite some time that symbolism and language holds much power. But I rarely practiced it.
I am going to be sure to remember some of the prayers and change the wording. My mother-in-law as a therapist and as much as I do not believe in Psychology or therapy I believe there is something to be learned. This is an awesome video keep it up
I have watched all thre of the language videoes and I have to say I love the tools you have given me to help me improve my thinking and what I manifest. Thank you
Ah great! I'm so glad you've found the videos useful!
Fantastic video and well explained. I think this couples very well with the notion of NLP and removing not only self-deprecating statements from our internal narrative, but also the 'buts' and 'can'ts' from our everyday conversation 😊
As someone who struggles deeply with some ratchet grudges/resentments, I think this is right. You shouldn't "forgive' a person, which is to say, exculpate a bad thing that occurred, so much as as for grace. Grace to receive from the divine, and the gift of giving it. Then your forgiveness isn't really about excusing a thing, so much as realizing that it doesn't matter and that the higher self would have you love as unconditionally as possible. In other words, the insult loses it's power of you and you pay it no more attention.
Very logical...affirmation in the positive of intention
It reminds me of dealing with children, particularly children with special needs. To give a real incident as an example: The child picked up a large stone and the adult shouted “don’t throw the stone!” The child threw the stone and broke a car window. Because all that got through to child was “….throw the stone!” When dealing with children you learn to say “Put the stone down please.” That’s the way we need to talk to ourselves, our subconscious, the universe, the divine.
Congratulations on the fresh air. I did a three month fast two years ago, from my perspective giving up food is easier than giving up nicotine.
As a person of faith I have learnt that using positive words as well as nice words help in situations and that every word spoken is powerful to the betterment or in the case of bad words to the detriment. Rather like our thoughts and emotions and exercise and relaxation. The facial expressions denote our feelings and just by altering our expression can change our mood in an instant. I have seen videos of sounds being played to water and plants and good words have a dramatic effect on them as do bad words.
So I think your idea of thinking positively on a task creates that's better tone and vibe to reach out to eradicate the bad. Pray is powerful and to counteract the wanting of good is always to say also of staving off the bad/evil. This is common acknowledgment of what you don't want as it's just as important.
Through you, I feel happy because you are exciting my interest in esotericism. A topic, I’ve given zero attention so far in my life. Not now though.🙃🤔😱😇☸️
Hi @Kenny! I'm so glad you're enjoying the content, that you for your support!! 😄🙏
This one of the reasons that when teaching children, particularly about those things they need to know to protect them from harm, like not stepping off the curb in front of a car, etc. it is critical to use positives. I am not certain what the age is but I believe it is up to 4 years they are like the subconscious, they don't hear the "no" or negative, so that it you say "do not touch the stove," they hear "touch the stove."
Related to this, I have also found that Binah is quite literal; creative, romantic etc. but quite literal.
A few years ago I was trying to enhance my immune system beyond proper eating, sleeping vitamins, etc. I gave an image to my subconscious of a great knight in shining armor with a great sword fighting off and destroying all the winter viruses that cause routine colds and sniffles. Wrong image.
Fighting is what I got, until I realized that the symptoms, the sickness are precisely the fight. So up to that point I had a bad winter, more colds and headaches than I had had in awhile.
When I figured it out, I changed the image to that of sickness-free, healthy and happy winter wherein my immune system took care of the viruses before they had a chance to get started. That solved the problem.
So I guess the lesson is knowledge is very important and be careful what you ask for because you might just get it.
Great points !!! Been using my mind to affect my body for decades and its worked.
I want to be free from nicotine, so the example you gave is spot on ;)
I think that focusing on what we don't want automatically brings to mind negative emotions associated with it, and as a result emotions don't align with the intent and we send a mixed message that cancels itself out. When mind and body (emotions) are in tune, the signal is amplified.
Yes, that's an excellent way to put it, @Dakinilover. :)
I'm going to use it as well BUT WITHOUT SAYING "WANT", that's a big no no; the affirmation should be "I breathe pure air"
@@carlalussini 👏👍😉
This makes complete sense and I try to explain it daily to people.
"I stopped smoking 420 years ago"
reading you loud and clear ;)
Your method of giving up smoking is now I finally stopped biting my nails.
My whole life I kept telling myself “I don’t want to bite my nails,” but I only succeeded when I started saying to myself, “I want to grow my nails out.” Haven’t bitten them for 4 years now after a lifetime.
Yes!! Perfect example! Thank you so much for sharing 😊 👍
I saw a stop sign that was vandalized similarly to your thumbnail. The "artist" had blanked out the letters with a red spray paint and wrote over it: GO!. it was hilarious.
Maybe someone should add under that "...if you have good insurance and don't mind a month in hospital.". Lol
What you say makes so much sense, I want to be a non smoker . I have returned to smoking but lately I believe it no longer serves me in any way . Thank you for these videos.
I came to the same findings regarding the use of language after studying the Bible, NLP, and various other metaphysical concepts like LOA, and authors (Napolion Hill, Neville Goddard, etc). An emphasis on 'specificity', and 'positive communication' vs 'negative communication' is a thread that runs common through many spritual and physiological practices and techniques. Mental imagery and emotion are the language of the subconcious, physical words are just the containers/carrier for those mental images. For one to create in this reality one must first form or choose the 'specifc thought' or 'mental picture' to be made manifest. 'Contrast', is a tool that can be useful or even necessary for many who have not mastered the 'art' of knowing what the correct positive affirmation is. So as in example, throughout the Bible, when instruction is given, it is common for those instructions to include 'contrast', such as "don't do this, BUT instead DO this". 'Contrast' can be useful in bringing higher degrees of specificity and clarity to those who still need a guide to help narrow down the intended mental or energetic target. When dealing with any form of contrast it is not the passing 'negative thought' or occasional acknowledgement of an undesireable state that is the issue, it is the 'dwelling', domination, repitition, or interpetation of the negative thoughts that causes the images of mind to crystallize, or be reflected back via reality. The same principals apply, irrespective of the polarity of ones thinking; the seed of any sustained thought will produce an outward manifestation. The goal is to be intentional and deliberate with the seeds that you allow to grow in your mental garden.
Very very clever of you, Mr. “Fish” (as always by the way) your interpretation of the The Lord's Prayer regarding this topic!
Just found this channel,Great Work's
Thank you. This proves consistently true ;)
I leave a like on almost every video. I appreciate the small window you have given everyone into your mind.
I always wondered about the 10 commandments - Thou shalt not.....it would seem to be commanding the exact opposite.
I think that may be why Jesus gave us the Golden Rule precept in the Gospel of Matthew (7:12): “In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”.Much more positive view/take on things.
Exactly right here, Neville Goddard is very clear on this point
I think humans simply have a bias towards negatives, so it is much easier to believe that what you don't want will manifest vs what you do want. In the Lord's prayer, He covers the whole spectrum, identifying what is unwanted while affirming what is wanted.
I think best practices is using broad negatives and specific positives together.
just to add to your point it is actually not a natural human reaction to think negatively. The deceiver, of which is only ever one's self, would lead one to believe this to be true. The collective human negative thinking is a habit built upon societal programming and consistent conditioning. As we continue to live in these environments, displaced often from self, we produce an overcasts - almost a cloud of negativity - as we are beings that make metaphysical connection just as much (if not more) than we do physical. Initially this overcast would have been positive but as more and more negativity is recycled negativitiy becomes the base frequency of this network space.
The process of what you are describing is eerily similar to the Teachings of Abraham Hicks and the Law of attraction. She keeps repeating in her workshops and books that we identify that which we do not want by feeling what feels bad, and then counter it by feeling and thinking from that point of what we do want and focus on that instead. Abraham Hicks calls it to align yourself with your "emotional guidance system". One exercise they share is called Pivoting which is very similar to this, but there are many more exercises to choose from.
If the divine speaks the language of symbol, imagery and emotion... imagine if you made a really accurate symbolic representation of a desire while holding the emotions relevant to that desire while looking at the symbol/imagery of your desire. Oops, that’s basically Magick!
Isn’t it weird that these things usually work (time wise) in terms of 3. 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months... any idea why that is?
Great vid! As always.
Thanks
Two very good points. I've not read Psychomagic by Alejandro Jodorowsky, but my understanding is that it is quite pointedly on the topic of using the language of dreams in magic. Seems very weird and very wonderful!
And yes, the 3 thing seems to be a constant for forming and for breaking habits which is why I'm always wary of doing anything for more than two days in a row of I'm not comfortable with the idea of doing it long term...
It's because 3 is a magic/sacred number.
Nikola Tesla certainly knew something about the number 3, you might find some answers in his work.
@Leo Sun Sounds about right to me Leo Sun! I don’t think we’re at odds on this haha 🌞
Thesis, Antithesis and Synthesis. The father, the mother and the son. Consciousness splitting into Yin and Yang.
The number 3 is in every process of self reflection, self realization, reproduction and therefore key in a magick ritual, as magick is the act of actualizing a desire into perceived existence.
This actualization involves the magician (the father) using imagination, will or creativity onto Consciousness (the mother) in order to create the desired event (the son).
I'm new here; this channel became instantly one of my favs. Thank you!
I think the reason why is because our subconscious mind thinks in images or movies (imagination/visualisation)and feelings (cuz its our senses). So if we think of not wanting something, we are picturing that very thing we dont want. Instead if imagine what we do want we set the aim for that to our subconscious mind
thank you for sharing!
Once again thank you for your amazing work x Hope you dont mind that I have been sharing a lot of your content to my UNIFYD SOCIAL group CONSCIOUS CONNECTIONS because to me the value of your knowledge and work is absolutely priceless x❤🙏💜🙏💙🙏❤
I'm very grateful, @Gemedia Vision! And very glad you've been enjoying these videos!
There is a persian expression which says: What ever you hate, will happen to you!
I really enjoy your take on things. Language matters a lot, I think. There are examples throughout my life, looking backwards, where I have created my reality through inadvertent words, pronouncements and discussions. I feel that it is important to pause before you make big pronouncements, especially those that may have a negative connotation or view of a negative future, even if they are only a ‘possible future’. Emotions are powerful, but I believe that negative emotions are particularly powerful and my experience is that they very quickly solidify your future. In contrast, positive emotion in the words that you utter seem, at least to me, to require some degree of continued reinforcement, at least now that I am older and have a lot of other baggage in the back of my mind. This can all be seen and experienced personally, or by watching people that have more authority than I do. The more that you feel doubt about what you say, the less likely that they will occur, but the more you are emotionally worried or invested in them, the more they seem to come true. Thank you for your excellent series of recordings. It is helping me a lot.
I've been bingeing your Saturday series... Love it so far! Thank you for all the knowledge.
I’d love to find people like you in real life! So knowledgable!
Hey there FF. having just found your channel, would like to say thank you.
Re these two examples of Jesus teachings...I have also been taught the idea of positive framing of intent and it has been a powerful tool, with some interesting results. However, the more I explore my reality from the scientific/philosophical/neural/spiritual aspects, the more I have realised that the integration of both aspects of the polarity of any energy construct are first required to be balanced, before switching the consciously chosen direction. In other words a wave cancellation needs to occur first, to make the space for subsequent new construct with reduced interference....ie clarity. So watching this video was profound timing for me. If we notice, in both examples, Jesus integrates both negative and positive aspect, leading in with the negative, then exiting with the positive. I think that has more power in reality because it acts as the depolarisation cleansing first, and then the echo of the last statement remaining in consciousness, the positive aspect, will take hold. If we only frame positively at all, we are attempting to cause singular wave interference on what is already a chaotic storm. Will that even register ? Because reality (and physics) is only ever relative, and hence subjective, if we make a small splash in a very still lake, it has much larger effect than even a considerable splash in a gigantic ocean swell. The phase cancellation then creates the stillness of the lake. I am going to put this more into practice and see how it turns out.
Sounds good, I like your reasoning 😊
I remember thinking a few years ago that there was a connection to the increase in anxiety disorders , because of the 'words "protect us from all anxiety" that were added to the prayer in chruch.
I thoroughly enjoyed this talk on language. Thank you so much friend 💗
Hello. Hope I'm not too late for a comment. I'm a pretty new subscriber so I'm poring through your back catalogue. Re positivity: I have heard it said that worrying is praying for what you don't want. Also, a current translation of the Lord's Prayer is "Save us from the time of trial" rather than the "Lead us not..." Much more positive.😊
Thank you. This was very enlightening.
You're awesome Mr. Fish!
Great video. The positive way of expressing oneself is the "magic ingredient" of hypnosis. The inconscious mind don"t know how to behave with "don't", so if you formulate something negatively it behaves in opposite directions, as you pointed it with the "I don't want to smoke" understood as "i want smoke". I really love the hypnosis magic connexions, the trance state are similars and connected to chamanism, too.
Thank you for this video. Strange...I should come upon your videos when I decided I'm quitting smoking. Bless you!
I think I understand. To me it's similar to someone saying "Whatever you do, don't think about elephants" Which is ridiculous because in order for your brain to process that, you have to have idea of elephants in mind to begin with to be able to negate that thought.
Yes!! Exactly this! :)
This resonates! Thanks 🙏🏾
I heard Lon Milo Duquette speak about prayer on a podcast recently. He suggested that being in a feeling of awe when praying is key. It's perhaps obvious to some people, to me it is the best advice concerning this important activity.
Yes, I think this is key. Thank you for bringing this up!
@@FoolishFishBooks Your welcome.
The universe or divine the place were prayer's are sent to DO NOT understand don't wont cant type of words (contractions (i think)). Only understand action words is my belief...well something like that...thats not 100%accurate but is in the right direction . thank you kind sir for not charging people for knowledge only YOUR type of people are this way. Kind. Considerate. Courteous
I love this series of videos. I have encountered these ideas by Neville Goddard's lectures. God is your wonderful human imagination. I'd like to ask: if a circumstance is taking up the entire world, such that it seems that is all anyone talks about and focuses on, what's the best way to remove it? Let's pretend that the world was dystopic. How would one remove the dystopia? I have several ideas but I often realize that, even though "I only hear good news" can become true, it doesn't mean the "dystopia" is dissolved. And aside from simply asking God's Angels to come and cleanse the earth of whatever it is that I don't like about the world, I have no idea what affirmation or visualization I can use that is 1) positive, and 2) definitely implies the dissolution of the bad things.
The talking hand is kind of weird, but mesmerising.
I've learned alot depends on what phase the moon is as corespondents to the tree of life and which pillar of the tree should be used
I think a lot of this can be thought of through the original operations of separation. God says "I AM" but without "I am not" He is stuck in an eternal loop, so thus, this "NOT" must come forward, but to know what your are not, you must first understand the "NOT". As a result, this leads to an exploration of this "NOT" meaning "Okay, so I am not X, so let's explore this X fully to understand why it is not like me" I dunno what tradition this idea best fits into, but it's what felt right to say as a response.
This is central to the Via Negativa (the basis of the Cloud of Unknowing) 👍
I use negative requests to limit the scope of the power... I may want money, but not at the expense of my relatives or health.. not sure if everyone else has this issue, at least to the same extent..
ON POINT.
Im watching your videos to learn more about chaos magic(k)
whilst I am a deeply unspiritual person and wouldnt really ever believe in such things they are very informative in learning about the subject, like some sort of "atheist theologist" haha-
Your voice is really calming, makes your videos very watchable
I always was happy knowing there was some force or flow to the universe...but after asking from the whole truth... my bad...lol... I was given experiences that make me know we have a creator God and that the Bible is literally true... Nothing like not having to eat, sleep or even drink for 2 months to convince one of a different reality...lol..
Here is The Lord’s Prayer: from the original Aramaic; Translation by Neil Douglas-Klotz in Prayers of the Cosmos
The one you are referring to is an inverted version that serves a particular purpose. Just like the inverted Matrix.
--
O Birther!
Father- Mother of the Cosmos
Focus your light within us - make it useful.
Create your reign of unity now-
through our fiery hearts and willing hands
Help us love beyond our ideals
and sprout acts of compassion for all creatures.
Animate the earth within us: we then feel the Wisdom underneath supporting all.
Untangle the knots within
so that we can mend our hearts’ simple ties to each other.
Don’t let surface things delude us,
But free us from what holds us back from our true purpose.
Out of you, the astonishing fire,
Returning light and sound to the cosmos.
Amen.
The universe is neutral. What you say is what goes. "Good" and "evil" are just labels , its how we apes try to make sense of things.
I agree once when I was young I used to pray positively that I want a chocolate and I would get it . I was amazed 😄 thx for the info
Ps : I read the book called the "power of your subconscious mind " I think the topics R related
Sounds very interesting, thanks for the hint! :)
Based on your recent videos about language, I think that NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is something that would interest you.
I've lent all my NLP books and never got them back, which is why I didn't use them as a background for this video, but you're absolutely right! NLP is incredibly powerful, a real gift to the world! But so maligned...
@@FoolishFishBooks Damn, that's unfortunate & I couldn't agree more. The main offenders that use NLP maliciously has to be advertisers.
@@ministeriumestmagicae458 Yep. The ultimate evil warlocks 😬
Your book of common prayer is so beutiful! Do you know who printd this edition?
Folio Society :) Gorgeous edition!
Hi there! I really enjoy your way of interpretation and want to thank you!!!
It seems to me that this has to do a lot with the law of attraction! What would your suggestion be for someone looking to do something very very simple regarding attracting their wishes??
lets be careful to not deny our mourning processings...
Perhaps one way to considering the proper language you suggest would be that we have human made words and they are used to describe images. Using the word not evokes the same image. Like when they say if I tell you don’t think of a pink elephant you are already thinking of a pink elephant. So divinity responding to your thought images sees that as you desiring a pink elephant.
Is there some esoteric method of musical Harmony or theory? If so does anyone know any readings? I'm quite ignorant on esoteric matters, although as a musician my mind immediately went to all the liturgic hymns, chants, missae, motets etc. What are prayers if not a form of incantation? So I find very strange this lack or overlook of such a powerful tool as music in this practice.
Musical attributions can be found in Planetary Magick by Denning and Phillips, and theory in Quadrivium.
May I ask, what version of the book of common prayer is that? The illustrations are lovely. I've never seen one with a marbled cover before.

Hi FF. Your copy of the Bible in this video is beautiful.
I wonder where can I buy one like that?
I'm not a christian, but I am thinking in getting a new bible for my own study. Any recommendation will highly be appreciated. Thx
I think it's out of print by now, you can do a google search for the Barnes and Noble Leartherbound Collectors' edition of the Bible and see what suggestions you get - good luck!
@@FoolishFishBooks alright. thx
When banishing on the waning moon, I have heard its good to say free from smoking, for example what do you think of this?
In Rudolph Steiner's, "The Fifth Gospel", which is his Akashic Records reading of Jesus's life, he writes (page 51) how the Zarathustra-I now Jesus at age 24, heard the ancient prayer of "the Bath Kol" and these words:
"Amen.
The evil holds sway,
Witness of egoity freeing itself.
Selfhood guilt through others incurred,
Experienced in the daily bread,
Wherein the will of the heavens does not rule,
Because man separated himself from your realm,
And forgot your names, You Fathers in the Heavens."
So, Jesus took a known prayer, "the Bath Kol" and turned it around so it would have positive connotations rather than negative ones.
I would really like to know which those two book versions are! They seem to be beautiful versions
THE LORDS PRAYER (translated from Syriac Aramaic)
O Thou, the breath, the light of all
Let this light create a heart-shrine within
And thy counsel rule till Oneness guides all
Thy one desire then acts with ours
As in all light, so in all forms
Grant what we need each day, in bread and insight
Loose the cords of mistakes binding us
As we release the strands we hold of others faults
Don’t let surface things delude us
But keep us from unripe acts
To you belongs the ruling mind
The life that can act and do
The song that beautifies all
From age to age it renews
In faith I will be true
I came across this whilst training with the National Federation of spiritual healers in the 1990s, not sure of the literary source just felt it was relevant to the subject matter and hopefully of interest to folks 🙂
Oh this is beautiful! Thank you for sharing! Need to find a source for this.
@@FoolishFishBooks My pleasure glad you like it. Might be worth checking out the Gnostic Gospels as a source... but you are the expert 🙂
As long as we keep on circulating the wisdom it’s all in the field anyway! Much appreciate your hard work and the sharing of your experiences🙏
My God wears a monocle and a top hat.
look up split brain experiments everyone. we live in such a left brain world, but we must not be half our minds, use and practice mental working with the right cerebrum too. try expressing with the left what the right "says" and try expressing what the left says with the right. very challenging and possibly completely impossible and if so it is necessary to think and live in both. - this came from my left brain
But by the same token, if we are trying to be as specific as possible with language, then wouldn't it be better to avoid phrases such as "I want" altogether and instead phrase petitions either as if they are in the imperative mood (like prayers in the Bible) or are already reality. Rather than saying "I want to breathe fresh air" or "I want to quit smoking" wouldn't it be even stronger to say "I breathe fresh air" or "my lungs are smoke free" or "deliver me from smoking"? If you think about it, saying you want something is not technically the same as requesting/demanding it, nor is it declaring it a reality, it is simply stating that you are "in want". In other words, by focusing too much on the idea of wanting rather than the actual thing you want, then all you risk receiving is more feelings of wanting. Wouldn't it be stronger to say "this is reality" or "deliver this reality" instead of "I want this reality"?
I am a healthy nonsmoker.
💡
how do you interpret the bible?
❤
This is off topic. When we tell kids "don't do that" then children get stressed, or resist us and continue the behavior. Versus when we guide them with what "to do" then we will likely see a completely different response. (=:)
Actually, precisely and very much "on topic" :D
So If I Pray "I don't want more money" money will start coming?
You think that this type of negative thinking can also be used to manifest desired results?
Unfortunately, with that statement, you'll end up *_wanting_* more money, not having more money... But I wonder what results something like "I don't have a mountain of gold' would produce ...
Good info a little long winded though
🔥🤟🏼🔥
