Life Is An Adventure

Mike Dooley talks to us about his latest book Life on Earth, where he explains how thoughts become things, how we can free ourselves from karma and why it is that adventure always requires a sense of incompleteness.

How is it then that thoughts become things?

Theoretically, if you slow the energy of thought down, it becomes dense enough to appear as matter. I can see in my own life that the times that I got really prayerful and really held a clear mental image of things I wanted to bring to pass, such as joy, happiness, and money, then it would happen.

We came here to totally rock and roll, and when we understand that we are of the divine, by the divine, for the divine and that we chose to come here as the divine, then we start to realise that we are so inclined to succeed. I mean, it’s just like life is absolutely not fair, not even close, because we are so inclined to succeed it’s like we’re cheating every single day. So it’s not like everybody has a 50:50 shot of positive thought, positive manifestation, negative thought, negative manifestation. No, your positive thoughts are 10,000 times more powerful than your negative thoughts because your positive thoughts are in alignment with the joy and the love and vitality that brought you here.

So when you think ‘I’m a pretty cool guy, I love myself, I rock, I’ll probably live a happy life’ then that’s in alignment with truth. And truth is knowable. It’s not like everybody has their own truth, but everybody has their own approach to truth. The approaches can be infinite and they’re all worthy of respect but the truth is the truth and as I say often, there may be an infinite number of roads to Rome. Not one of those roads changes Rome. Rome is Rome is Rome and in this analogy, Rome is the truth. There’s an infinite number of ways to truth, truth being benign and simple, and there’s only God, there’s only love, it’s all good, and our thoughts become things. These are immovable pillars that make the stage of time and space possible.
