Self image and intention

From Yoga

Self image and intention

No matter where we are and what we do we always have a self image and we always have an intention.

Why is this important?

Because both our self image and our intention act like a magnet that draws experiences to us.

For example when your self image is that you are a loving friend, you will atract experiences of loving frienship.

If your intention is to be of help, you will atract experiences of being of help to others.

So this is important so you can figure out what is most fulfilling in your life. This knowledge is also important, because it saves us time. Unaware people have to physically experience something to get the satisfaction or pain from the experience. Aware people can instantly see themselves as having already accomplished the experience they set out to create. This way they can decide if this is a great experience or not and if they want to continue surrounding themselves with the same intention and self image or maybe change the direction.
