In the begining was darkness. God hovered over the waters speaking existence into being.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said...
~Genesis 1:1-3
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
~John 1:1-5
If we wish to recreate our reality we must also enter into the darkness and silence of the mind. We must enter into the closet of our inner being and shut out the external world and all of its distractions.
In this story of creation is hidden the creative aspect of the human mind. The father is the conscious mind, while the word is the son and the water is the subconscious mind. This is the trinity from which creation is birthed. Father, Mother and son. The waters representing woman. The conscious mind speaks the word and the subconscious mind receives that which is spoken and in a way not known to us this spiritual inner talking is made manifest into the physical world.
Mind and matter are one!
This is echoed in hermetic phylosophy. Mind, said hermes, is Father while word is Son.
God hovering over the water and speaking words which cause it to resound is a metaphor for the mind's inner talking which resonates at specific frequencies and create unique vibrations that are impressed upon subconscious mind. Water on a cymatics plate will create patterns according to the frequency and vibration being emmited. The human brain is made up of mostly water and water has tremendous memory as shown by the work of Dr Emoto. The subconscious mind assimilates into itself the pattern of the seeds or words sown within it. Whatsoever a man sows that shall he also reap is an eternal law speaking of spiritual matters.
It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. ~John 6:63
Each word we sow has encrypted
within it a specific pattern that if received within the crypt of the subconscious mind will be expressed upon the screen of space. The pattern impressed upon the subconscious mind, as a seed, unfolds within this fertile soil and produces in physical reality after its own kind.
And so creating a life we desire begins in the darkness of our mind, when we withdraw from the outer world and physical senses and make real an imaginal act within using our spiritual senses (touch, taste, sight, scent and hearing).
If we can vividly create a scene within and feel ourselves to be experiencing it we trick the subconscious mind for it cannot differentiate between what is real and what is imagined. What the subconscious accepts as facts it goes about to expressing it into the outer world.
It is no different than the seed deposited within the womb of woman which is born a child in physical reality after the likeness of the father.
It is no different than a dream in which all we experience is dictated by the mind. A change of thought within the mind generating the dream results in a change of experience within the dream, everything reshuffles itself until the lower reflects the higher. As water reflects the image above it, so it is in this dream of life, the subconscious reflects unto reality what is sees in the spiritual.
Imaginal acts create reality.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. ~Genesis 1:3
This is equivalent to man entering the darkness of his mind, the womb of creation and through the pineal gland shedding light into his inner world thru imagination.
The pineal gland is the seat of the soul. ~René Descarte
The Egyptian hieroglyph depicting the pineal gland resembles an eye.. Our third eye or pineal gland is the spiritual technology which allows us to create inner worlds which become outter facts through the means of visualization using our imagination.
Imagination is the substance of things not seen and the subconscious mind is the chrysalis in which is incubated the state desired which will manifest itself into physical reality. Imagination is the light of the world.

The catterpillar crawls about on the ground its whole existence worrying only upon survival. Upon the leaves it must feast to make it another day. It is only when it enters the chrysalis that all which it is is dissolved. In this transformative act does it become that which it envisions to be. In that state of dark slumbering is made manifest a new body and experience within reality.
We are the catterpillar when we are living in survival mode. In this state fear is the main motivator of our actions and we trudge through life, living a drab and miserable existence.
When we realize what is within, that the spark of infinite intelligence is within us and its doorway is imagination it is then that we enter the darkness of the crysalis and through the use of creative imagination or christ consciousness make all things new. In the darkness of imagination time and space are suspended and through the medium of imagination a new reality is formed in consciousness. As we remain in that state, the feelings associated with it will become real within us and a peace beyond understanding establishes itself. When we open our eyes back to the physical reality with all of its problems and limitations, this new truth of the reality imaginagined remains and fuels us with faith. If we sustain this feeling of that imaginal act in spite of what we are seeing in the physical world (its obstacles and limitations) it will from the mental world manifest into matter for mind and matter are one and what is sown and watered in the within will blossom in the without.
We transform from within outwards, imagination sown into the chrysalis is the means through which the state desired is chrystalized into existence. Imagination is the only creative means.
The felling of the wish fulfilled impresses the subconscious with the pattern that will be manifested. All of our thoughts and feelings are impressed upon the subconscious as an encoded seed which will produce after its own kind or after its own pattern. Through mind and thought we design the seeds sown and through consistently dwelling with those thoughts and imaginal acts which keep the feeling alive we water it with the living waters it requires to mature into fulness. If the feeling of the wish fulfilled is replaced by fear we know that the seed is perishing and needs to be watered once more through faith.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing the by the word of God.
As we shift our thoughts and imaginal acts back in line with the wish fullfilled and continue therein we water the seed back to life once more and it will blossom, some a hundredfold, some sixtyfild and some thrityfold.
It is a universal truth that whatever you impress on your subconscious mind is expressed on the screen of space as condition, experience, and event. ~Joseph Murphy
In order for Christ to ressurect he first had to enter the chrysalis of the tomb. The old self full of sin first had to be entombed and forgotten before the new being could emerge. Our current physical limitations and the feelings they engender must die and be burried. This is done by closing our eyes to the outer physical reality and in the darkness, through the medium of imagination, conjure up the likeness of the one we would like to become. This work is done in the shadow, behind the stone.
"When you pray, (a meditative state where the barrier between the conscious and subconscious is deminished) enter into your closet, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father which is in secret and your Father which is in secret shall reward you openly” ~Matthew 6:6
Jesus or imagination is the rock upon which the wise man built his home. In the darkness, infinite intelligence hears the wisperings of our imagination, and through ways and means which we know not of it will ressurect the desired state!
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb. Psalm 139:13
After a man sows through sexual intercourse a seed within a woman he then goes about his business having to do nothing more for the child to manifest, so the seed of desire sown in the subconscous is knit into reality by the hands of the invisible without the need of man to do anything more.
Leave to the hands of the divine that which is imposible to man for that which is impossible to man is possible to god. All things are possible to him that believes. Man believes and God achieves.
Faith and fear are extremes of one thing; feeling. When it comes to manifestation feeling is all prevailing for it is through this means that thoughts and visual scenes are impressed upon the subconscious which is the god part of man through whom all things are possible. Fear is prevelant in most, yet fear is the effect which can be traced back to its cause; meditation on negative circumstances. Fear is not spontaneously generated, it has a source. The mind is like the stomach in that it has a diet. Depending on the mental diet we feed the mind a feeling will be generated. When we begin to shift our focus from the negative circumstances of life and focus on positive content faith is fueled.
The thought energy once feeding fear is redirected along the lines of positivity and engenders faith within us.

The chrysalis of the mind is a microcosm of the egg of life. As god hovevered over the waters of creation in the begining so your new begining is also preceeded by you entering the darkness of your mind and speaking into existence over the waters of creation that which you have in mind. In this manner is creation set into motion.
The tomb is the womb.
The catterpillar enters the tomb of the chrysalis to emerge from that womb a new creation.
The less than desired person enters the darkness of the mind and within it solidifies a desired state of consciousness, and from that tomb/womb he emerges a new creation. All is mind, all of creation, all that we perceive and experience in physical reality is sourced within the mind. A change of mind is a change of reality.
“Faith,” he is told, “is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” [Hebrews 11:1]. And again, “Through faith… the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” [Hebrews 11:3].
Every night as we enter the stages before sleep the veil between the conscious and subconscious mind is diminished and it is in this opourtune time in which the subconscious mind is most susceptible to impressions. It is the ideal time to imagine ourselves right into the state of the wish fulfilled and take it into the darkness of our slumberings.
