Question:
Can you tell me what it means when what manifests is better than your wildest dreams? Years ago I meditated for inner peace. Maybe I had other wishes for my life but never got very specific in my head. What eventually manifested was beyond what I could imagine for myself. I would like to know how this happens.
Answer:
When we ask for something from the universe, it usually is a desire that comes from our limited ego. It is a perspective that wants what it wants from the narrow viewpoint of its past conditioning and lack of self-awareness.
When you manifest something better than your wildest dreams, it means that the universe is manifesting to you what is actually in your highest and best interests—beyond the restrictions of your ego-bound consciousness. So for instance you desire a better paying job with a boss who isn’t overbearing and unreasonable. Then you are offered a job doing something you hadn’t considered doing before, maybe for about the same pay, but it offers you the creative outlet and collaborative environment that allows you to develop new skills and a sense of satisfaction in work you never knew was possible. An important feature of manifesting an outcome better than you imagined is in being open to possibilities outside our current vision and not being trapped by the idea of not allowing any outcome other than what you expect.
