The Universe is information aligned in mental energy under rules and laws to appear as a "physical" manifestation. The mental energy produces a perception in the divine Mind. The perception has several values that make it seem real. We call it a world of "sense perception." The divine Mind is real. The mental energy creating the perception is real. The perception itself is mental smoke and mirrors, it has no actual reality. The divine Mind is All. The Universe is entirely mental and as such, it can be mentally manipulated to deliver whatever life you will. The Law Of Attraction is only the beginning of understanding this mental process. Join me on the path to mental mastery!
