I will tell you about the mechanisms of how magic works. The mechanism of a sieve or cherry-picking is a way in which we can influence the surrounding world. For example, if you want to eat pizza within the next hour, you can wish for it. As you walk down the street, your attention is drawn to a sign advertising "The best pizza in town." Will we call this magic, resonance of the universe, or manifestation of desire? An atheist might say: it's just selective attention. But a magician would say: it's a method of manifesting desire. We need to formulate a wish that is possible in our world and focus our attention on its realization. The sieve of attention, or cherry-picking, is not a denial of the absence of magic, but rather a magical technology. Thus, this mechanism helps us to create and realize our desires and intentions in life.
The mechanism of how magic works can be interpreted as a mechanism for gathering information or events that correspond to our desires and intentions from the vast stream of possibilities in the world. In this context, "selective attention" plays a key role in directing attention to those events or opportunities that align with our desires. The atmosphere of anticipation and belief in the realization of the desired outcome can also enhance this effect, as positive attitude and confidence can focus our attention on specific events or opportunities more effectively. Here is a mechanism that helps us create and manifest our desires and intentions in reality.
