Use of Meditation, Self Hypnosis & Visualisation in the Creation of Reality

Examination Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: Pass, - (Sedona University), course: Masters - Meta Physics, language: English, abstract: According to Arntz (2008 : 76), the observer has an inescapable influence on anyobserved physical process. The believe that we are not neutral, objectivewitnesses to things and events was first insisted upon by Niels Bohr and hiscolleagues in Copenhagen where Bohr lived; thus its often called theCopenhagen interpretation (Arntz, 2008: 76). This Copenhagen principle, fromquantum physics, suggests that the smallest part of matter, called a particle,behaves in a fashion based on the consciousness of the observer. For example,if a particle is observed, the behaviour of such a particle is determined based onwhat the observer thinks. Science is therefore suggesting that our thoughts ashumans are the determining factor in the creation of reality.From the metaphysical perspective, Bob Proctor, philosopher, is quoted in Byrne(2006: 3) as saying that we all work with one infinite power - we all guideourselves by the exact same law of the universe the law of attraction. Proctorbelieves that everything in your life that comes your way comes because of thelaw of attraction. It is attracted to you by virtue of the images you are holding inyour mind. The images in your mind or visions in your mind, is thus the basis ofcreation of your reality. What you think determines your reality. The credibility ofauthors such as Proctor is supported in the work of Byrne (2006:7) by otherauthors as John Assaraf, Bob Doyle, Mike Dooley and many others. All of theseauthors support the notion that we can create whatever we hold in our minds as apowerful enough vision. This notion is also supported by the Bible when it states as you believe, so shall it be . In this study the routes to the development of this visioning is analysed and compared. For purposes of this study these routesare defined as meditation, self-hypnosis and visualisation. The routes arecompared and analogies drawn.Meditation is described by Masters (1973: 1) a process whereby an individualreaches an ultimate level of relaxation, with the objective of engaging inaffirmations, or the keep your intentions in the interior centre of your forehead your mind s eye or eye of the soul.[...]
