/u/mindseal and I recently began discussing intention and manifestation and the "mechanism" behind it. We've moved our conversation to this thread so that others can hopefully share their thoughts and experiences.

Reality is a mirror curved back on itself. That which is perceived is a reflection of itself. By gazing upon something, one becomes that thing. The self is experienced by experiencing the world.

'Intention', which is subjective judgment of a base perception, and becomes 'self' (as a belief), is 'mechanistically' reflected back into the external, and reexperienced as 'manifestation'

Cheers.
