The Spiritual Cause
The desired state is a "perfect egg" (pattern). To make it alive and manifest, it must be "fertilized" by an imaginal act (the "sperm") – specifically, by intensely feeling the reality of the wish fulfilled. This imaginal penetration leaves no trace but makes the pattern productive.
What you saw in the beginning was the perfect egg, but it was not fertilized. A sperm must penetrate the surface of an egg in order to fertilize it; yet no hole appears in this perfect egg either before or after penetration, because it is all imagination. ... So it is with a little sperm. It penetrates the surface of an egg and it leaves no hole either before or after penetration; but unless it penetrates, that egg remains just a perfect pattern of what could be. It takes the sperm to penetrate and make it alive. I urge you to test your creative power on this level. Take every moment you can and clothe yourself in the feeling that your wish is fulfilled. Feel its reality and do not forget that moment, for it is productive. In its own good time, that moment will appear in this world, properly clothed as an objective fact.
This analogy explains how an imaginal act, imbued with feeling, activates a potential state into a living, manifest reality, without any visible external effort or "hole."
