Introduction

Greetings, my Friends! The book you are about to read may be one of the most important books you have ever read. In the pages of this book are outlined the universal laws that govern how to become prosperous and how to apply the laws of manifestation. What is unique about this book is that it is written from an integrated full-spectrum-prism-synthesis understanding. I was guided to write this book because so many lightworkers are having problems manifesting the money and material things they need to do their spiritual missions successfully. In the pages of this book, you will find the esoteric secrets of the universe regarding increasing your prosperity and money supply. This book is written in very easy-to-understand language and is filled with tools, which if applied in a consistent manner, will give you guaranteed results. Because it is written in an integrated and full-spectrum-prism-synthesis manner, it does not just focus on one level of prosperity like prayer or positive thinking or imaging. It focuses on all levels of prosperity and how to align all these levels for maximum manifestation results. This book is born out of personal experience and all the different spiritual, psychological and earthly insights and tools that I have used to humbly become one of the most successful spiritual businessmen in the New Age movement. I remember a quote of the universal mind as channeled by Edgar Cayce, which says, Abundance will be the result of thy fulfilling the law of supply in the experience of someone else! Paraphrased, this means that if you want abundance for yourself, you must dedicate your life to helping other people become abundant as well. I have written this book with a deep sense of humility as a gift to all my brother and sister lightworkers to help everyone become prosperous.

How to Be Financially Successful: A Spiritual Perspective

It should never be forgotten that we are all incarnations of God. There is only one being in the infinite universe and that is God. We all share the same identity in God. There is no separate being other than God. We live and move and have our being in God, so when any person can be helped to become prosperous, everyone prospers, for we all are God. I feel you will find this to be one of the best books on prosperity, the laws of manifestation and the golden keys to abundance that you will ever read. It is essential reading for all lightworkers and will stand as a classic in the field of business and prosperity consciousness for many years to come! Enjoy!

Keys to Prosperity Consciousness from the Souls Perspective
realize that I have never, in my ascension series written on prosperity consciousness and the issue of money from the souls perspective, even though it covers a wide variety of issues dealing with the material and physical face of God. Mastering ones prosperity consciousness, as opposed to poverty consciousness, is an extremely important lesson of the spiritual path and also has quite a bearing on ones physical health, since being stressed out over money creates a good deal of strain on the physical vehicle. I thought it was about time I addressed this issue in succinct fashion, so lets examine prosperity consciousness from the souls perspective. The first key to making lots of money and developing prosperity consciousness as opposed to poverty consciousness is to become right with self and right with God. By doing this, you develop the Midas touch, which, of course, means that everything you do turns to gold. The second key is letting go of the belief that money and material success are bad. Money, in truth, is a wonderful thing. The more money you have, the more you can spend in service of your brothers and sisters, family and selfall aspects of God. The wealthier you are, the more you can help manifest the divine plan into third-dimensional reality. The third key is letting go of the belief that you have to give up all your possessions and live in poverty to realize God. This is a misinterpretation of the Bible. In truth, just the opposite is true. To realize God fully on all levels and to become a full-fledged ascended master, you must master all lessons, including this lesson of prosperity consciousness as opposed to poverty consciousness. The fourth key is getting rid of all negative-ego thinking and replacing it with Christ thinking. When you have achieved this, you live in unconditional love and perfect harmony with all your relationships, which creates incredibly good karma.

The fifth key to achieving prosperity consciousness and material success is being creative. By this I mean not waiting for God or the inner-plane ascended masters to conk you over the head and tell you what to do. God helps those who help themselves. Pray to God and the masters for guidance as to how to serve and make lots of money, but use your own creative consciousness and mind as well. The sixth key is putting God and your spiritual path first. Have no false gods and ideals, and these include money. The only way to make lots of money is to be unattached to money. The Bible states, Seek ye first the kingdom of God . . . and all these things shall be added unto you. Put God and your spiritual path first, and material success will inevitably come. The seventh key is having a flawless character and integrity, always putting the customer first. The eighth key is dedicating your life totally to service, which will ultimately lead you to having a pure heart and the universe to rewarding you. The ninth key is to tithe 10 percent of your salary to some spiritually worthy cause. If you dont tithe, you should at least give seed money to those in need, and it is totally your right to expect a tenfold return from both endeavors. The tenth key is to fully realize that God, your personal power and the power of your subconscious exist as a state of mind, not as anything outside of self. This key has to do with fully realizing that most people find their financial and material security in things outside of self. The truth is, however, that this is illusion and a philosophy that inevitably will cause suffering, for to fully realize God, you must let go of all your attachments. It is okay to have preferencesand even superstrong preferencesfor money and material success; however, if you become attached, you actually push what you want away from you. As Lord Buddha said in his Four Noble Truths, All suffering comes from attachments. The test to determine whether your security is in God, your personal power and the power of your subconscious mind is to imagine how you would feel if all your possessions were taken away. Would you still be happy and have inner peace? Would you have confidence and faith or would you experience worry, fear, doubt and insecurity? The only true security in life is belief, knowledge and understanding of God and Gods laws. Some people might say that only God is important. However, I am adding Gods laws, because to be able to manifest money and material possessions in total confidence and faith, you must also be right with self, not just right with God; you must also own your personal power and utilize the power of your subconscious mind and physical action. God will not do it all for you. Understanding God and Gods laws as they operate on a superconscious, conscious, subconscious and physical level is key to un-

derstanding what I call the laws of manifestation. So if having faith in God includes all these levels of God, then saying that God is your stocks and bonds and financial security would be equally acceptable. It is in the integrated understanding of these four levels that total faith and confidence in the ability to manifest money and wealth truly lie, no matter what happens in life. On the spiritual or superconscious level, the key to manifesting monetary and material success is prayer and meditation. Most people do not pray enough to God and the inner-plane ascended masters, archangels, angels and elohim. I am including the elohim here because they have particular expertise, being the cocreator gods and goddesses in the laws of manifestation. Meditation is important, because once you pray for the help of God and the inner-plane masters, it is essential to be able to both talk with God and the God force and listen to God and the God force. Once you pray, God and the God force may provide guidance or recommendations as to ideas or certain steps toward achieving your prayer preferences. This can occur not only in meditation but also in your daily life, through your intuition. An essential part here is to stay attuned to God, the inner-plane ascended masters and your own mighty I Am Presence for continual guidance. The second level of this key is to fully own your personal power at all times and to use it to take appropriate action. If you pray to God and the God force and they bring you certain opportunities, you must then be ready to use your power and take appropriate action to take advantage of these opportunities. Edgar Cayce spoke of this in his Universal Mind channelings in referring to sins of omission and commission. We must know at all times when to act and when not to act. The third level of this key is the use of positive affirmations and visualizations to program your subconscious mind to attract and magnetize monetary and material opportunities and energies to you. Most people do not realize the incredible power of the subconscious mind to bring you anything you need. Working on this one level alone is an enormous task. However, when combined with full personal power, appropriate action and prayer to God and the God force, your manifestation power is enormous, especially if you are clear on the previously mentioned keys. The eleventh key is constantly monitoring your thinking and feeling and making sure that once you have prayed and have done your affirmations and visualizations, your daily thinking and feeling and speaking to others are not sabotaging the immaculate and perfected thought form you are trying to consciously hold. Even if you pray, own your power and do affirmations and visualizations. If your daily speaking, thinking and feeling involve too many doubts, fears and worries, this can possibly sabotage your

prayer. So, as the Master Jesus has so eloquently said in A Course in Miracles, Be vigilant for God and His Kingdom. The twelfth key is reading New-Age books on prosperity consciousnessfor example, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hillso as to fill your mind with this concept. Any metaphysical bookstore will have many such books; let your intuition guide you. The thirteenth key is owning your power and doing your prayer, affirmations and visualizations to maintain the consciousness without obsessing or fixating on it. Inherent is the understanding that you are a son or daughter of God and that you are, in truth, one with all creation. A lot of people do these spiritual practices, but they do them from a consciousness of feeling separate or apart from creation. In truth, every part of creation is a part of us. When we identify ourselves in a balanced way while doing these practices, it increases our manifestation power. The fourteenth key is wording your prayers as prayer preferences to ensure that attachment and addiction are not seeping in. The fifteenth key is dedicating your life not only to service but also to giving to others. Do not serve to make money, but rather serve because true pleasure is serving God and Gods sons and daughters. Fully realize that service is the sole reason and purpose you have come here. While driving on a freeway one day, I encountered a man whose car had broken down. I stopped to give him a ride, and he seemed very touched that I had taken the time to drive him home. This was not something I normally do, but for some reason I felt compelled to do it that time. The man told me an incredible story: He was from a foreign country, and for six years, he had a terrible time in his gas-station business. People were cruel to him and treated him like a second-class citizen because of his skin color and foreign accent. But then one day, his car broke down, and a man he did not know picked him up on the freeway and drove him around all day to help him out. My new acquaintance said that he was astounded that a stranger would treat him with such kindness. At the end of the day, he wanted to pay his rescuer for his time, but the man wouldnt accept any money. Instead he told him to help someone else in need the next time an opportunity arose. The man was so touched by this selfless act that, while he drove his tow truck around the city, he constantly helped people with no concern for payment. He wanted to demonstrate to others the generosity that this one man had shown to him. This mans business started to turn around, and soon he had the most popular gas station in the entire city. He made new friends, and his life changed because he focused on selfless giving and not on making money. Ten years after he had had this experience, I was picking him up on the freeway and driving him home, for no motivation other than just wanting to help. The story had gone full circle, and I felt as though I was the one who had been given the gift.

So, my friends, dedicate yourselves to service and giving with a pure heart in whichever way you are guided, and your christed attitude and demonstration will bring you untold financial and material opportunities. These opportunities will follow because you are treating other people as the Christs and Buddhas they truly are. The sixteenth key is keeping your money in circulation and not holding on to it too tightly. Of course, you should be practical and wise in your investments and expenditures, but the nature of money is that it circulates in and out. Do not be afraid to advertise your business. Advertising is the way, on a third-dimensional level, that people can find you. You can do all your spiritual practices, but if you never leave your house, God, the masters and the power of your subconscious mind are limited in the ways they can bring opportunities to you. The seventeenth key is not being afraid to take risks and to make mistakes. Sometimes you might have to try five or ten ideas before you find the gold-mine idea that is the key. Banish the word failure from your vocabulary. There is no such thing. Failure comes from a belief in judgment, which also does not exist. Mistakes are real; they do exist. Mistakes are part of the spiritual path. They are unavoidable and appropriate. The key is to learn from them, to forgive yourself and to give up any negative-ego perfectionism that says that mistakes should not be happening. Dont go out of your way to make mistakes, but when they do happen, just learn from them and let them become a positive experience, another key to helping you refine your prosperity consciousness. www Practice these simple golden keys to prosperity and spiritual living. They will bring you untold success, financial prosperity and material wealth that you can use to help others as well as yourself. But more importantly, they will also bring you inner wealth and success, because you are dealing with money and material things from a God and Christ/Buddha perspective!
