Would you like to release five to ten times faster (or even faster!) and with much less effort and discomfort? Then try “Immediate Releasing.” This concept arose from a comment that Larry made, but apparently few if any heard, including me, that the “third way of releasing” by letting go of wanting approval, control, and safety/survival does not require that a person identify a feeling in the body or visualize anything. During the Abundance Course we learn to picture energy passing through a window, door, or tube early on with the feeling or “kinesthetic method of releasing,” so the impression many releasers have is that they should continue using those visual and feeling aids when they release wanting approval, control, and security/survival. That is incorrect, in the sense that the visual and feeling aids are not needed for releasing “the wants.” Let me quickly point out that the availability of “Immediate Releasing” does not make the other methods wrong. Lester said that “Every aid is a good aid, be it Gatorade.” Every aid that does not program you, that is. The real point here is that releasing is easier and faster than you thought. So that said, let’s cut to the chase.
What principles support the concept of “Immediate Releasing?”
Lester said in The Final Step to Freedom (p. 23-24): “I’m trying to get you beyond that contented state. I’m trying to get you to go further so that you just think and things happen, immediately. What you don’t see is that now you think that you must think now and later on the thing happens. And I want to get you where you think now and it happens now.” I recommend this book if your intention is complete freedom. When I re-read this, and I was apparently guided back to this book by Beingness in some way, the word “immediately” jumped out at me. I then suddenly thought of the word immediately in the Six Steps. It is in step 3. “See all your feelings culminate in three wants – the want of approval, control and security/survival. See that immediately and immediately let go of the want of approval, want to control and the want of security/survival.” You can release immediately!
The good news is that releasing need not be a time consuming thing that is painful.
Do you remember how your mother told you to swallow your yucky medicine quickly and then quickly wash down some water to make it clear your palate even faster? And when you pull a tooth slowly, it hurts far more than when it is jerked out immediately. Ouch! Let go of that thought! But the point is this: Releasing is immediate, so if you want to, do it that way. Release immediately as soon as you say “Yes, I’ll let it go!” You do not have to use a window, door, tube, or body feeling to release. Most may need to go through these other processes before they have the faith that they can release immediately, but once this is understood, why not release immediately rather than sit watching energy flowing for an undetermined amount of time? How long does it take to release? No time. Pull the splinter out, but pull it out fast rather than slow. This does not make the other methods wrong! It is a different and faster option if you choose to use it.
How do I practice “Immediate Releasing?”
1. Write your goal statement or write down the thought you would like to release on such as “I allow myself to receive $100 or more with ease.”
2. Ask yourself or your partner: “What thought or feeling comes up when you think about the goal of ____________?”
3. Ask, “What is the want behind that thought or feeling?” Or ask “What is the want?” Let them tell you the one or more wants they have.
4. Ask: “Could you let it go?” As soon as they say yes, they have released. No time is required. Move on immediately to step 5.
5. Ask “What is your next thought or feeling about the goal (repeat the goal once in a while or as necessary to help them bring up more thoughts or feelings)?”
6. “What is the want?”
7. “Could you let it go?” Now just keep going from step 5 to 7, occasionally repeating the statement or goal if needed.
8. Because Lester taught that the fear of death or the want to survive is the most primitive want we have, if the first want that comes up is either wanting approval or control, then ask “Is there any wanting to be secure or to survive behind that?” Or simply ask, “Is there any other want?” If yes, ask them to let go and if not, ask them for the next thought. You may also find that as they become quieter asking for their next “thought, feeling or picture” is helpful. Then, once again, ask for the want. The mind may turn to images without thinking as it quiets down. I believe it is very useful to use Lester’s words, especially “survival” when releasing or you are possibly wasting the release on the fear of death. So stick to releasing security/survival or safety/survival in all your release work. Many of us drop off the survival part. If it is not there, fine. But asking them to let go of that want with both elements included will not hurt. Since survival is the ultimate want, you may release on that one alone if it comes up that way. When wanting safety comes up, release “wanting to be safe and to survive or that lacking safety and lacking survival feeling.” Alternatively, you may ask yourself or a partner to list all the wants up front and then release each one with a “Yes.”
So it goes like this:
GOAL: I allow myself to receive $100 with ease.
Question: “What is your first thought or feeling that comes up about allowing yourself to receive $100 or more with ease?”
Answer “It won’t happen to me, because I simply can’t figure out how it will happen.”
Question: “What want is behind that?” (Or “What want does that bring up?”)
Answer: “Wanting approval, control, and safety.”
Question: “Could you let go of the lacking approval feeling?” Or just ask “Could you let that go?”
Answer: “Yes.”
Question: “Could you let go of the wanting control feeling?” Or just ask “Could you let that go?”
Answer: “Yes.”
Question: “And could you let go of the wanting safety and survival feeling?” Or just ask “Could you let that go?”
Answer: “Yes.”
Question: “And what is the next thought or feeling that comes up?”
9. Release on wanting to be separate or wanting to be One if that arises. You will learn about these wants in depth in the “What Do You Want to Do when you Grow Up?” Course. I suggest you take it if you have not, so you can take your releasing even farther. Just say “Could you let go of wanting to be separate?” or “Could you let go of wanting to be One?” when that arises.
A few more tips:
Don’t force the thoughts, feelings and pictures to come up:
Especially as you or your releasing partner starts to get quieter, just ask what thought or feeling or picture comes up, “if any?” The “if any” allows them to come up and if they don’t, you can ask them how they feel from zero to 10 on their goal and then return to the releasing if they aren’t at a 10 yet
You can do Immediate Releasing with any of the other formats including doing Attachments and Aversions or a list of Advantages and Disadvantages. Just ask the thought, whether an advantage or disadvantage, then ask the want, and release immediately after you get a “Yes” from yourself or your partner. If there is resistance, release that immediately as well and then continue.
You can use Immediate Releasing to start your day by listing all thoughts as they arise and doing the Immediate Release. You will start your day in a very high energy. Just remember to continue releasing throughout the day and to use the process on specific goals on your list.
Move the time frame to a shorter and shorter time period: Just as with a money goal you would not start out by releasing on having a billion dollars with ease on your first try (but you are welcome to!), release on having your goal happen immediately if you want. In any case, stretch your time goals so you allow things to happen faster and faster. Releasing can happen immediately and so can goals.
Can I go back at times and use my visual and feeling release methods? Sure. You can do whatever works. Release to go high with the other approaches and then continue using “Immediate Releasing” to go still higher.
How can I release emotions directly using Immediate Releasing? If an emotion is coming up and you want to bring up a lot of that emotion such as fear or anger for example, use this sequence that is familiar to anyone attending Larry’s teleconferences:
Releasing on feelings:
Question: “Could you bring up the fear?
Answer: ”Yes.”
Question: “Could you let that go?”
Answer: “Yes.”
Question: “Could you bring up more fear?
Answer: ”Yes.”
Question: “Could you let that go?”
Question: “Could you go even deeper and bring up more fear?
Answer:”Yes.”
Question: “Could you let that go?”
Answer:”Yes.”
Keep up the same pace of Immediate Releasing and a lot of the emotion will come up and out fast. Lester recommended to release on the wants generally rather than on the emotions, because of the power of that process, but sometimes working on the emotions frees up a lot of energy and allows it to pass through. You can use this same process for bringing up disapproval and giving yourself approval.
The results:
What I have found in working with people at all stages of growth from relatively new releasers to highly advanced releasers is that they report:
1. It is faster. Some have told me it’s 10 times as fast. Let us know how it works for you. I find that it is at least 10 times as fast.
2. It is easier. There is no longer the burden of pulling the knife out slowly and feeling the resultant protracted pain of the given feeling. All your feelings leave quickly resulting in less discomfort. Try it and prove it to yourself that it works.
3. It is more fun. Less time needed and less pain means it is more enjoyable than ever to release.
4. You go deeper with the release process. As mentioned, Lester said to go high to release, rather than release to go high unless you are in a very low state. In that case, release to go high and release from there to go higher. When the releasing goes faster, you cover more ground and release more deeply on your goal. You become truly hootless about a goal, which means you have no attachments or aversions.
5. Goals manifest rapidly. While doing this process with one advanced releaser, the person we were working on called him during the release. It can happen that fast. Lester said it could, and he was right. Another had a goal manifest within the next day to the tune of just under $900. It can happen as fast as you allow it. Release directly on time if your goals seem to always take time to come to pass. I would recommend the Time Management course if that is your program. It addresses time directly.
Final Considerations:
Will you move in a linear way to a higher and higher energy during Immediate Releasing with no steps back?
Not necessarily. Sometimes releasers will go quickly to a very positive thought and then suddenly plunge back to anger or fear or grief. This is natural and the important thing is to not push any feeling down. Let go of your own need for approval, control, and security/survival and continue releasing with them. You did not make an error; they just had some deeper “garbage” that needed to come up. They will get to a point of hootlessness if you keep your own faith in what you are doing. Eventually, they will state that they feel their goal is entirely possible and that it does not actually matter whether they attain it or not. That is success. Ask them before they begin how they feel about their goal with zero being impossible and 10 being completely possible and you can ask them along the way or when they have gotten significantly quieter, how they have shifted. Where are you on the scale now? If they are not at “10,” there is more energy and they need to continue with you or on their own.
What if I still have energy after releasing on a thought?
When that happens, you can continue releasing. If a thought keeps coming up despite repeated releases, you need to look for a deeper program that is driving the creation of that thought. I recommend you take the Programs Course and you learn to locate the underlying program creating that recurring thought.
What if someone I am working with goes off on a tangent during releasing or doubts come up that they are releasing?
Agree in advance that whatever comes up, you will release the tangential thought or doubt immediately. You have to be dogged about it and continually ask the want, no matter what the thought. If they say, “I don’t think I can come up with any more thoughts” that itself is a thought and you should ask “What is the want behind that?” It is the ego that tries to distract us from what we are doing. Be loving of course and allow them their Beingness if they insist they are done. Otherwise, just love the ego as it is and keep releasing and keep your partner or yourself on track!
What if they go completely quiet while releasing?
Don’t push yourself or partner to find a thought if there is none there. By repeating the goal or thought you are releasing on, you may be able to elicit more thinking, which is fine. As in the “What is freedom?” exercise in the Abundance Course, you may continue to ask “What is the thought, feeling or picture? What is the want? Could you let that go?” even if the person is silent. One can continue to release and go higher, even in the absence of verbal answers. How long you continue in this mode is up to you and perhaps upon some agreed upon time frame. At some point, just ask him/her to allow him/herself to open his/her eyes when he/she is ready if the exercise is being done with closed eyes. You can ask how he/she feels about the goal manifesting at the end.
What does it mean if I have a profound “spiritual experience” during this process?
It means you should continue to release. You may or may not be free, but why get stuck there? Allow yourself to realize complete freedom by continuing to release no matter what. Ask Lester for guidance or any other master of your choosing and they will help you. “Don’t stop” is Step 6 of the method. That is, don’t stop releasing. Those who stop once they have a “feeling of peace,” or after they have a spiritual experience perhaps including an altered body state, MAY be pulled back to lower energy states. Why? Lester said that you have only four things you can do in life. The first three are suppression, escape, and expression. The fourth is releasing. There is really only one choice or decision in life. You can release or NOT release. If you choose not to, you are actually being programmed once again and that MAY drag you backward and downward in energy. When you stop releasing there is only one way to go - down. Don’t fall into spiritual pride over a lovely experience that convinces you that you are enlightened. It is great that you had the experience, because you are pointed in the right direction most likely, but KEEP RELEASING! That is straight from Lester’s heart. Once he felt all the joy rising up, he kept going in order to obtain all the goodness from releasing. He went all the way. You can too. Really, you can. You will eventually do it Lester said. It is just your decision to be free of all sorrow, and to be successful, happy, completely positive, and all loving. Will you decide that for yourself now?
