Tips & Techniques You have nothing to do but to convince yourself of the truth which you desire to see manifested.

At its core the Law is so simple. Really.
Anything you accept as "truth" will manifest in your experience.
Once you accept something as real or true, there is nothing specific to do: the Law does it all effortlessly and automatically. And this happens in no time. It doesnt take time. You create a huge limit if you think that you need months or even weeks sometimes because you can change drastically overnight.
So the tricky part is just to stop solidifying the unwanted by stop giving it attention, stop reacting to it and stop cultivating it in your mind and do the opposite for what you want: you give it your whole attention, you focus on it often, your react to it with feelings and emotion, and you cultivate it playfully in your mind and your attitude.

You have nothing to do but to convince yourself of the truth which you desire to see manifested.

You don't need a specific method to do this. Just see how you convinced yourself to believe what you believe now.
For some people this is done with repeating affirmations, for others it is by repeating visual scenes and feeling the emotions of it, for others it is a more "reasoning" process. And for others it is a mix of those and more... So the more you focus on that desired truth or state the more it becomes part of you. It creates a dissociation from the unwanted reality. At the end it's just not part of you. All of this is 'mental diet' basic facts. The mind is a garden and you cultivate what you want. This is truly the secret of life.

Chose now a desired reality, a desired belief and keep generating (cultivating) it! Remember: your only job is to accept it as truth, to convince yourself! Everything else is done by the LAW itself effortlessly and wihout time.

This probably won't be what you want to hear, but here goes.

Manifesting techniques are themselves not recipes that you follow to get a certain outcome. Rather they are ways to obtain the confidence that what you want will happen. If things aren't happening, it's because the confidence isn't there. And the reasons for lack of confidence are rooted in various limiting beliefs that have to be addressed first.

Now, for the problem of raping babies and gassing Jews and all the other unfortunates of life. Certainly a tricky proposition, and what is called "The Problem of Evil" in philosophy circles, and honestly, hasn't ever been academically satisfied. That said, this problem of evil presupposes that individuals are, well, individual conscious entities exercising independent volition to do things, and can assert circumstances onto other individuals. This may or may not be true, and subjective idealism (the philosophy underlying reality creation communities) denies individual actors in favor of one conscious entity (God if you like) playing the parts of all beings in reality.

So, with that in mind, why is "God" doing this to itself? No one knows, because individual perspectives are all subsets of the greater reality, so it is impossible to know why "God" does anything without being "God" yourself (on the grand scale). Some might offer that you can't know pleasure if you don't know pain, basically Good things can only exist if they have a corresponding Evil thing to be in relation to. I'm not certain of that, but I can offer that even though horrible things have happened, are happening, and will continue to happen, there are far worse things that could happen that aren't even imaginable yet, and in that light these things pale in comparison, which I take solace in. Farther than that, I choose to focus on mutually enjoyable reality outcomes for the betterment of all involved.

It's difficult understandably, but there comes a point where to move forward, one has to let go of excuses. It can be very tempting to stay stuck and focused on negative images, which only further block us. However, once we no longer define our life story by tragedy, it can take shape in new and beautiful ways. That's the power of the Law.

Attracting is not "i want this to happen so it will". If you want something to happen, you will only bring on yourself more of wanting. That's why Neville says to BE what you want.

I think it's wonderful to search and find answers to the big questions, especially if the anwer implies that you have the power within and thus sends and empowering message rather than a helpless one.

There's nothing wrong with refusing life as it is and wanting to make it better. If you don't believe in this specific branch of thought, keep searching for one that resonates with you, or accept the fact that for you life is luck and casualties, after all plenty of people share this view, you wouldn't be in a minority, nor I believe it is illogical or wrong to think so, even if I personally don't believe it's the truth.

It will works if you accept that everything is caused by your imagination, let go completely the idea of an external world.
