"Aligning your thoughts with positive intent", sounds good, but that's not how it works, exactly. Thoughts are mental articulations of awareness which, itself, is the balance between "attention" and "intention", the two basic tools of psychical manipulation. Everything depends on one's individual facility with these tools. Until one masters them, they will be drawn into play spontaneously, and unpredictably. You see a car hit a deer; if your emotional response is not mastered you may immediately feel hatred for the driver. How fast can you reform that response?! Can you reform it before "the waves go out"? Or will your hatred be felt by the driver, making you responsible for an assault of sorts? Is there a rebound from the car driver's psyche toward YOU, in an automatic defensive response that elicits within you a group or series of associations to experiential memory, articulating as a "desire" within you, arriving "out of the blue" to your awareness. The complexity of the sea of vibration that surrounds us is unfathomable.
The use of term, "frequencies", is problematic in the extreme: frequency is a property of PERIODIC waveforms; not all waveforms are periodic. This a problem. Further, waveforms require a medium of transmission--"something" gets "wavy". This is another problem. The uncertainties introduced by these "problems" make the thoughts squishy and vague, limiting thought intensity, which, I take it, is the amplitude of the waveforms. "Frequency" should be a good term if you can solve the problems satisfactorily.

Math is a representation of the physical world internalized conceptually, according to experience of the real world. The number, "3", for instance, developed organically from our experience of the physical world. Math as a rules-based system developed from such fundamental beginnings. "Fractals" are a product of mathematical processes, specifically, "recursion", where the result of one calculation is used in a later iteration of the same calculation--the equation will "feed" itself forever, if the result is not mathematically "illegal". This is the entire "mystery" of the infinity of the Mandelbrot set. It goes on forever because it is mathematically designed to do so! It may be a suggestive way to imagine "the mind of God", in someone's conception, but it IS NOT, itself, the mind of God.

At 1:50, Howard asks, "Do you believe there are straight lines in the universe?" It's a trick question, as we discover a bit later. At 2:15, the trick is revealed, reluctantly: "Show me a straight line...<trailing>in nature." I am in the universe. There are straight lines all over the place, to my observation--but they're not produced by natural process, to my observation. However, calculus treats nature/the universe as having no "curves", but rather, straight lines of infinitesimal LENGTH. Every curve, then, IS a series of straight lines. The curves, then, is an illusion of resolution. And it's not possible to PROVE otherwise. So, not only is his basic premise wrong, but he attempts to trick us into tacitly accepting it. He's using a deception as a foundation for the rest of his (sales) presentation. I find this style of manner of his off-putting--there's reason to distrust him as one would any marketer. "I've got a great time-share condo for you!" I've heard the patter before...it's unmistakable--it took me about 30 seconds to catch a whiff of his drift.

 @kgonzalez8098 <--Especially smells transport you to a time and place instantly! It is very useful to modulate the recollection response to avoid imaginatively re-experiencing physical sensation, if that might be useful, such as in the case of the person who faints at the sight of blood because of a traumatic experience where they SMELLED blood. There are "professional noses", who make a living smelling things, especially for businesses that manufacture perfumes. Their sensitivity to scent is remarkable, but everyone has an olfactory organ, so everyone experiences the same great sensitivity without being aware of it. It's kind of an old wives' tale, that, if you forget what you were just intending to do, go back to where you were when you were thinking about it, or, more commonly, walk through a doorway again. The energetic impression of you is still there; I guess the idea is that you can become that person again by reoccupying that space. I don't know, but it's interesting to think about.

 @Cardioid2035 <--Buddha said, "Existence is suffering". Whether sorrow or joy, it's all suffering, a constant buffeting of your being. Physical discomfort depends from identifying with the sensory level: by focusing on it you amplify it--and there's nothing like "fear" to heighten focus! The analogy I'm most familiar with comes from my self-hypnosis experience at the dentist's office: I had my eyeteeth drilled and filled without anesthetic, but, as long as I maintained complete relaxation of my muscles, especially head and neck, the sensations were painless. In fact, there was quite a light show going on behind my closed eyes! Pain relies on muscle tension, for some reason, was my conclusion. "Identification" automatically follows immediately upon "observation", which we do continuously while awake; but you don't have to take that identification to the sensory level, stirring up disturbing associations to experiential memory that tend to reside in patterns of muscle tension that is called "muscle memory", "emotional armor". You exercise the power to direct your awareness, one way or another, continuously! Live the glory of a cosmic adventure in evolution! Anything less is unnecessarily boring!
