The word (–not) added when working with intentions to a given word means that it is worth mentioning it as an opposite, or even independently finding and speaking aloud any synonyms that come to mind together with their opposites.

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

–being poor, ill, –not being poor, ill.

This allows a given pattern to be activated as broadly as possible immediately, in different aspects, including its opposite. It is also worth knowing that Souls often think or claim that they do not have such opposite patterns — for example, that they are not idol worshippers, as in a given case (a given word).

Another example:

A woman’s Soul denies ever having been a bad mother. Therefore, adding here the negation phrase — not being a bad mother — may allow it to understand the state in which it finds itself.

Being a bad mother, –not being a bad mother–

“–No way, never in my life! These are not my patterns. What I do is my private matter.”
[–Quite often this is what the Soul says or thinks about itself.]

The idea for life in a soap opera was taken from the film Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: “I want to be like Disney’s Snow White, sleep until the prince comes. We will have fairy-tale sex until I wake up.”

I had another good name: “a thing for cooks and firefighters” — that is what the announcements and pre-war advertisements were like. In sum, the audience is the same, but this term is branded, because it comes from the USA, not just some Polish one.

It seems to me that the Soap Opera also takes place endlessly in the relationship with God. I allowed myself to add this issue to the above intentions. An endless series that God watches, where Souls and beings play unintelligent roles and speak equally unintelligent lines.
We also do not know whether God has anyone to speak with constructively.

Soap Opera and Living in It — I also added the term “in relations with God” to these intentions. Because I have such an impression, especially when nothing changes. A series that God watches, where Souls and beings play foolish roles and also speak the same kind of lines.
We do not know whether God has anyone to speak with constructively.
