Technical matters concerning the concept and the construction of sentences when working with intentions.

“A One-Sentence Template for Working with Intentions.” Link

The word (–not) added to a particular word when working with intentions means that it is worth mentioning its opposite or even, during the work itself, independently finding and expressing any synonyms that come to mind together with their opposites.

For example—being poor, ill—it is also advisable to say it together with its opposite

—being poor, ill, —not being poor, ill

This makes it possible immediately to move a given pattern as broadly as possible in different aspects, including in its opposite. It is also worth knowing that Souls often think and claim that they do not have such opposite patterns, for example that they are not idolaters, as in a given case or with a given word.

Another example:

A woman’s Soul denies ever having been a bad mother. Therefore, adding the word of negation here—not being a bad mother—may enable her to understand the state in which she finds herself.

Being a bad mother, —not being a bad mother—

“But of course not, never in my life! These are not my patterns. What I do is my private matter.”—This is what a soul very often says or thinks about itself.]

At the age of eighteen, he began walking on all fours and eating grass. He later became a stylite and, from the top of his pillar, gathered fellow monks around him.
