Intention is creating an imagined state of being for something you wish to achieve as if you had already attained it—truly feeling as if you have already gained what you desired.
Adding conscious intention to your practice often yields significant results. Intention is a tool of your inner observer’s focused attention that can be employed to achieve your chosen objectives. Where we place our attention is fundamentally the linkage between consciousness and any aspect of the world around us.
Resonance, or “like attracts like,” explains how patterns of any type can reinforce similar patterns, just as wave patterns demonstrate constructive and destructive interference. Resonance can greatly amplify the power of the information that overlaps between such interacting forces.
If you wish to receive an answer to a question, imagine how you would feel when the question is answered—clarity. If you’re seeking a solution to a problem, imagine what it would feel like when the solution is found—success. If you don’t have a particular goal, simply open yourself to all possibilities—trust.
Associate your particular issue in your mind with a chosen word and in your daily practice, focus on just that one word. It is critical to integrate your feeling state and not just think about the literal definition of the word. Combining the emotion of a word (and what it represents) with the thought of a word (its literal definition) creates a powerful force.
You can experiment by using a combination of up to three words. Feel the differences between various combinations of words.
Please note: Holding an expectation of exactly how the outcome of your intention will be accomplished is detrimental to success. Resolution to issues often arrives in completely unexpected ways. It is vital to maintain an open state of mind and to be receptive to any path that might present itself. We don’t always know beforehand what might be the best solution to an issue. Crucial to the process is to let go of any attachment to results and outcome.
PRACTICE
Add intention to your daily practice by setting an intention using just one word. Select a word that represents the state of being you would like to have once your objective is achieved. From your heart space, generate what you would feel like in that state; really feel it, as if it has already happened. Then let go of any expectation on how that intention might be fulfilled and trust that it will be delivered.
Try this with and without the supplied audio recordings from previous days.
I have learned to surrender to the source of all. I have learned the laws do not know the difference between intention and the 3d world, therefore, if my stove broke down, I can visualize a brand new stove, my self cooking in it, enjoying the food, cleaning and maintain the stove. Doing this with intention will create the stove to appear. As we work on ourselves, get in alignment, understand how the laws work and allow the higher beings who have far more knowledge than our limiting minds, we then are blessed with manifestation. I allow time (spiritual beings do not have 3D time) and know they may need to make other things happen before our request, so that it is of the highest good for me/ others or I realize it may not be in my best interest to have that intention to occur. All my medition are with intent whether it is a prayer for someone, society, myself, family/friends, mother earth, government etc. I use “Om sound music with specific areas to work on, my new study of Kabbalah meditations, silence, nature and your meditation during the day along with prayers. These daily journeys are helping us focus, creating space, creating the higher conscious states that are needed to balance and stay in higher vibration for the planet and ourselves. Blessings being sent to the both of you for your work.
Thank you! This is such an important discipline which I do practice and try and live by. Being clear on the intention is really important and it also must be accompanied with an elevated emotion. The clear intention comes from the mind and the elevated emotion comes from the heart. The two together create a coherence and the Universal Intelligence supplies the result which comes in a way least expected but just right for you at that moment in time. As you say, if we expect the results to come in a specific way then we haven’t let go for something greater to happen.
Is it better to practice just one intention solely for a period of time to get the best results? I have numerous intentions (wholeness, expansion, joy, integration) and state them at different times when I meditate or practice yoga or listen to the Sacred Acoustics recordings.
Tascha,
I asked and it was given to me more than I can process with Sacred Acoustics tones. I never tried anything else before. I was raised Catholic (it was very important for my Mama) but didn’t practice. I meditated not knowing what I was doing (learned some verses without meaning), it was just a lullaby.
With Sacred Acoustics tones I see, I hear, I feel and I ask, and I’m receiving answers. It’s amazing. Thank you Eben & Karen.
We know from the Bible: Ask and it’s given.
I was so open for neurostreams as yesterday during my work I was listening binaural sounds on youtube ( just gave in: positive healing neurostreams). I had not more than 7 Minutes of strange sounds and woke up this morning with headache. Therefor I had to see how careful we have to be the which sources we connect.
Thanks again for the source we are connected here!
After typing out my message, it was annulled, saying I should slow down, but seeing as I received lesson 22 last night and answered it after a nights sleep, I am puzzled, but I will try again later. Love Margaret.
Intention is the process we employ that attracts all that is meaningful into our lives. Everything we do or have begins with intention, knowingly and unknowingly. I firmly believe that the cause of every effect begins with intention. I also firmly believe that “I Am” is an acronym that spells out the secret to all of our lives. “I Am” is the acronym for Intention Attraction Manifestation. All that is has been and is intended to be.
Thank you for this. It is just what I needed today.
I have already held my intention for months and it has led to many changes and chance (miracle) meetings and opportunities that I KNOW I could not have orchestrated on my own.
Yet, at times, it can STILL be super-challenging to remain centered in my intention while surrendering the outcome… I want to do things to ‘help’ bring my idea of ‘the ultimate outcome’ about. I also know my TINY idea of the ultimate outcome is ludicrous compared to what consciousness would cook up for me. But then, the fear creeps in and I succumb, and act in some way that is not in alignment with the intent and what I know to be truth. ALWAYS with regret.
I’m hoping this technique of linking three words/feelings together will help to contain that ‘fire’ (so to speak) that leads me to try and control the outcome.
Thanks for the guidance! And also for this wonderful 33-day gift! 😍
Love and light!

Today’s lesson is the BEST! This is exactly what I believe and hope for. The hard part is imagining how it FEELS to have my goal/question completed/manifested without focusing the particulars of the outcome (i.e. the “how I got there”). Anyways, great job!
