Laws of Assumption

The law of assumption is the minds interpretation of past events brought into the present. Had there been no experience prior to an event such as going to the dentist, there would be no assumption about it and no anxiety or joy about the experience. The supposed end experience in the past in our example the dentist, causes mind to create a story around an upcoming scenario of going to the dentist. The mind/thoughts then signal thoughts that correspond to the past experience assuming it will be the same.
However, each moment/frame of experience/existence is always new-brand new. There has never been a duplicate experience. From the sound of the rain to the bed you lay in at night. Each is unique and never been experienced. The minds ability to retain information via the senses and store them allows for the appearance of continuation, of time, of the familiar. These are always false because each moment/frame is new.
The mind/thoughts arise in your individuated experience through the mechanism of stored memory and assumes the thoughts that correspond with the present moment. In fact the mind has no ability to be conscious or ability to process, understand or cognizant anything. It simply projects what is stored as an emotional impression. These thoughts are benign with no autonomous characteristics. By understanding the mechanism of mind you are then able to shift the assumptions to better support the state you wish to experience. There has never been a past, nothing has ever occurred, it is all occurring now.
The law of assumption is also a thought. The thought that there is something to compare the now with. The now is compared to or related to what is assumed to be the past. What is occurring are emotional imprints arising now which attract corresponding thoughts. Belief is the assumption that an experience has occurred before when in reality you have always been right here, never moved just this. The imaginary faculty is the mechanism for creating the next moment. Mind, memory and imagination are all one interconnected energetic vibration. This is in your terms called GOD. Even the concept of GOD, self, source etc., are but imaginary components to the changeless I Am. It’s playing out as a seamless life. Look closely at your assumptions. Did these actually occur the way thought suggests they did? They most certainly can be revised to establish a more harmonious energetic experience.
You have assumed you have walked the beach on numerous occasions, the same beach but is it not the first time you have walked a beach? How do you know you have actually done this before? Each moment is an ever fresh new beginning. That is reality. The real. The absolute truth of what you are.
By assuming what is a desired state, thought can be utilized as a tool for creating. For whatever is assumed will produce that assumption. The key here is to imagine the state desired as truth for that presents as experience. Now is always now and always new. By assuming a state or condition, with the understanding that all is always new, you secure that experience now. You have done this in each moment and your assumptions/life i.e., mother, woman, person, store owner, have all been imagined into this now. The assumptions are solidified thoughts i.e. Beliefs or your self-concept. The beauty of this is profound. The malleable invisible is in fact formed as such and when attention or assumptions are receded, so does the assumed solidified thing or state. By approaching each moment with this understanding life becomes a profoundly beautiful moment.
