The Force of Your Will Projected

by Stuart Wilde

What I learned from the European occultists is that the greatest power available to us
humans is our will when projected correctly. Now you probably haven’t thought much in
terms of the power of your will. But it is this same power that the ancient magicians used
to create supernatural events in their lives. The difference between will and intention is
that, for many people intention is just a mental act - a kind of wishful thinking - whereas
the force of will projected from your consciousness contains not only your thoughts and
desires but also the enthusiasm of your own Life Force. Your will, projected correctly, will
contain that vital ingredient, your spirit - the very essence of what you are.

The force of that spirit, clearly defined, will deliver to you the focus of your will, by
virtue of the fact that the clarity of its concentration is honed to such an uncluttered
purity that it cuts right through reality and fires the full weight of its power upon any tar-
get. Remember that your consciousness is contained in a sea of consciousness, which
is basically all the energy and thoughtforms of the world around you. For the most part
the energy of people around you will be weak and ill-defined. What little power they
have is often undermined by emotion.

In that pea-soup of mumbling and grumbling, along comes the magician: powerful,
clear, uncluttered by yearnings or fanciful ramblings of the imagination. Detached as
he is from the emotions of humanity, he stands on a launch platform that is already a
rung or two higher than the crowd. From there he fires his will into the circumstances
of life, knowing that his power is unstoppable.

How could the Universal Law of life deny this man? It can’t. His power is too great. His
will is uncluttered by any thought of deserving, of good and bad, of having or not hav-
ing. It is focused solely on what he wants. His desire is not delivered because of any
higher selection process, rather it comes to him solely through the force of his
demand. It is because he wants it, because that thought is laced in his will, empow-
ered by the very spirit of his being, that it cannot be denied him.

When first confronted by this idea, Ihad a natural reaction against the aggression
