The field of intention is a subject about which the late Dr. Wayne W. Dyer spoke and published extensively. In his book "The Power Of Intention" he devotes a whole chapter to "A Portrait Of A Person Connected To The Field Of Intention".
Based on his researches Dyer positioned intention as a force in the universe that allows the act of creation to take place.
Critically, in my view, Dyer defined and explored intention — not as something we do — but as an energy we’re a part of.
In a recent article The Energy Of Life we looked at:
Dr Dyer described a person connected to what he refers to as "the Field Of Intention" and what I describe as "The Energy Of Life" in the following terms:
"A
person who lives in a state of unity with the Source of all life
doesn't look any different from ordinary folks. These people don't wear a
halo or dress in special garments that announce their godlike
qualities.
But when you notice that they go through life as the
lucky ones who seem to get all the breaks, and when you begin to talk to
them, you realize how distinctive they are compared to people living at
ordinary levels of awareness.
Spend a few moments in
conversation with these people who are connected to the power of
intention and you see how unique they are."
Dyer continues:
"These highly realized people think from the end, experiencing what they wish to intend before it shows up in material form.
- They use their feelings as a gauge to determine if they're synchronized with the power of intention.
- If they feel good, they know that they're in vibrational harmony with Source.
- If they feel bad, they use this indicator to adjust to higher energy levels. And finally, they act on these thoughts of intention and good feelings as if all that they desired were already here.
- If you ask them what you can do to make your desires come true, they'll unhesitatingly advise you to change the way you look at things, and the things you look at will change."
