INTRODUCTION

The perfect parking place shows up every time.
A hopelessly lost pet reappears within an hour of a group
praying for a miracle. The perfect house becomes available,
a job opens, money multiplies, the right people appear, all
through serendipity too remarkable to be ?coincidence.”

I don’t believe in miracles like these; I see them in my daily life.
I would no more say I believe in miracles than say I believe in
cars, or planes, or chairs. They’re just a part of life.

For decades, a rash of literature has shown how easy it is to
create miraculous health, wealth, and happiness by following
the simplest of formulas or techniques. Many wonderful books
have taught us the value of affirmations and visualization,
of practicing meditation and yoga, of positive thinking and
prayer. Popular movies like What the Bleep Do We Know?! and
The Secret make ?the Law of Attraction” look like an easy way
to have everything we want. And it really is that easy?except,
of course, when it’s not, when no amount of affirmation or
visualization techniques will budge life circumstances that
feel hopelessly out of our control. Sometimes these techniques
backfire comically with results that are literally just what we
asked for, as when a woman I once knew affirmed, ?My next
boyfriend is rich!” Her affirmation produced immediate results,
drawing into her life a new boyfriend who wasn’t wealthy but
was named Rich!

While I will address the art of intentional manifestation
and spontaneous healing here, miracle-making goes beyond
either of these. Too often the practices of spiritual healing or
intentional manifestation keep our focus on the presence of disease
or on a lack of something in our lives. Miracles may include
healings and manifestations, but they take us beyond our needs,
beyond our wants, and beyond the limitations of our thinking.
They’re such a direct experience of God energy that they don't
simply produce a desired outcome; they change us.

For example, several days after attending one of my group
experiments, a woman came into a large windfall of money
after her sister won the lottery and shared it with her. The
money definitely helped the woman progress speedily toward
the goals she had identified at the group event. But when
she recounted the story, she said the real miracle wasn’t the
manifested money; it was that her sister shared it with her.
The two had had a very strained relationship and this gesture
produced a totally unexpected healing. Miracles can result in
all kinds of lovely manifestations, but they’re more than these
end products. Miracles are always rooted in love, the love of God
that transforms us and makes all things possible.

Calling forth a miracle is a bit like coaxing some beautiful, wild
thing out of the woods. When you find you can’t chase it down
or catch it, you finally give up hunting and just become still. Yet
merely stopping the chase isn’t enough; the thing won’t come
out as long as it senses your agitation. You need to relax. Then
you look the other way, because the creature is shy and won’t
appear if it knows you’re waiting for it. So you pretend to be
simply enjoying the day with no other agenda. After a while,
you actually are enjoying yourself, peaceful and content, the
wild thing all but forgotten?when suddenly there it is, magical
and magnificent, better than you expected, coming right to you.

And it comes just as you’ve stopped trying, stopped expending
effort, aren’t even focused on it anymore, so its appearance
feels strangely not in your control. Certainly you did things.
You wanted it, you set an intention for it, you looked, and you
waited. But these things by themselves didn’t call the creature
forth. It was the point of release, a simple lightness of being and
love of life that called the wild miracle.

Stop for a minute before reading on. Think about whether you
experienced anything as you read this last paragraph. Did
you put yourself in the words and picture something wild and
beautiful out there watching you as you waited for it? And did
you, just for a moment, release the feeling of ?hunting” as you
imagined the easier experience of simply being present and
light? If you did, you’ve already altered your vibration a bit to
let something wonderful sneak into your life when you least
expect it.

This book won’t give you a never-fail formula for manifesting
miracles?because there isn’t one. It will explain some of
the science and psychology of miracles, which is important,
because many of us will block what we don’t understand. It
will also offer stories of real life miracles, because the more
commonplace they seem, the easier it is to relax, to stop
stalking the impossible miracles, and to let them simply appear
on their own terms. Most important of all, I’ll walk you through
some experiments and playful moments in which, together, we
can forget what’s impossible long enough to let the miraculous
slip through!

You don’t need to read this book in a straight line from
beginning to end in order to see miraculous manifestations.
Miracles aren’t linear. You might experience the most
phenomenal miracle of your life after reading the very next
page or by opening the book anywhere. What reading this
book from start to finish will do is help you to accept and truly
benefit from miracles. Each chapter contains an exercise and/
or an experiment in miracle-making. The exercises prepare
you for the experiments, and the experiments take you beyond
time and space into uncharted territory to see what is possible.
If you give careful attention to each one, you’re likely to notice
fortunate coincidences and serendipities happening more
frequently. You also may experience dramatic life changes.

Alternately, change may creep up on you so slowly that you
don’t notice it at all until one day you realize everything is
different. This was the case with a woman who attended a
healing event with me. She reported many months later that
she didn’t realize she had been healed of a severe, chronic,
asthma condition until she found herself in a situation that
would normally trigger an attack. As she noticed she was fine, it
dawned on her she couldn’t remember the last time she’d had an
attack, because it had been so long.

As with the wild thing in the woods, don’t stalk your miracles.
Give yourself over to the quality of the moment, and let your
miracles find you?in great, obvious ways or in quiet, secret
ones.

I suggest doing the experiments when you have some quiet
time to yourself. Some of them are a bit long. For best results,
you can either read them slowly in a quiet, reflective state,
make a recording to listen to with your eyes closed, or use my
recordings that are available on CD or for download at Namaste Publishing's website.

Perhaps the best way of all to experience this book is with
a study group, where you can discuss the exercises and do
the experiments together, reading them aloud as...
