Manifesting, enlightenment and awareness all add up to the same thing; becoming aware of self. Some say ego death is necessary, some say that is impossible but we all know this, we are trying our best to explain and we are all guessing. It has to be practiced and it has to come from you, not another. You must be the experiencer to have an authentic experience that is unique to you. To manifest what you want, you have to feel it, think about it and process it your own way. Its your life, your expression and your expression makes up a part of the bigger whole. We are not truly separate or at the very least being separate is an illusion as we still a part of the bigger whole
