Cushioning Others (Applying the Law for Loved Ones)

Step by step

1. Identify a loved one you wish to cushion.
2. Decide what beneficial state you desire for them (e.g., financial security).
3. Ask: What would it feel like if this were true for them?
4. Assume and feel the reality of that desired state for them.
5. Persist in this assumption, regardless of their belief or external circumstances.

For loved ones who do not understand or apply the Law, one can 'cushion' them by assuming a desired beneficial state for them (e.g., financial security), feeling the reality of that assumption, and persisting in it. The outcome is then left to the divine depth of their own being.

You have a wife, a husband, children, friends who cannot cushion themselves because they don’t believe it. But you love them to the point where you want to cushion them, regardless of whether they believe it or not. So, they don’t believe it. All right, then you cushion them anyway, because you love them. And you want to leave them enough money to give them a cushion. If you want to leave them a cushion in the world of Caesar, you leave them a little money; that’s the cushion in this world. So, what would it feel like if I could leave to those that I so love, say, a hundred thousand – two hundred thousand? Now, what would it be like to depart this night just as though it meant nothing, and to leave them a quarter of a million, knowing that by tomorrow they may lose the whole thing? But that doesn’t really matter. You did your part.

Since all are one, one can effectively apply the Law of Assumption for others out of love, even if they are unaware or disbelieving, thereby influencing their experience in the world of Caesar and providing a temporary 'cushion.'
