There is nothing unspiritual about material things. You will always be able to refine and change your desires later, so it may be wise to start smaller and work upwards. It can be more difficult to visualize and train the subconscious mind when the goal is lofty, spiritual, & ambiguous, so starting with something easy can help you learn and build your confidence before you move on to something bigger. The reason for this is not to be materialistic (which is not really possible since all material matter is made of spirit/L.V.X./OnePower) but to give yourself something very specific to be able to visualize and meditate on, to allow you to become better at the technique over time. The advice I was given is that it is sometimes preferable to begin with a very specific, simple want - even a material good of some kind.ДЇor instance, if there is a particular musical instrument that you have been wanting, or a certain tool, gadget, book, item of clothing, or even the ideal pet, you may want to choose that as your first desire. I have done precisely that in reference to this. Please remember that you are never alone, and you always can write to your brothers and sisters at B.O.T.A. There are likely many things that feel important or urgent to choose as your first desire, but only you can discern what is best for you at this time. You are in good company and you will eventually meet your goals. There will be times when the answers may come quickly and easily, and other times when it is less straightforward as our lives unfold in various cycles of ebb and flow. It is a question we return to again and again throughout our lives, so you will have many opportunities to refine your goals and desires, or choose new ones. Rest assured, that many people stumble or struggle with answering the question 'WHAT DO YOU WANT?' Do not fret or feel bad about your initial confusion.
