Abe: So You Messed Up Big Time. So what?

Abraham - San Francisco, CA, 3/16/02

Abraham: We are wanting to help you find a way of accepting once and for all the perfection of who you are, and we want so much for you to find this place where you really are so sure of who you are that anyone else’s opinion of who you are does not matter at all.

In other words, we want you to be able to... mess something up altogether or blow an exam or crash your car or do any other number of things [to which] much of the world would say, “Well, that was certainly an inappropriate thing for you to do,” and we want you to be able to stand proudly and say, “Hey, I did that and it doesn’t have any relationship to who I am.” 

In other words, “Who I am is Source energy physically embodied. Who I am is pure positive energy out here on the leading edge.... Who I am is an eternal seeker of alignment with who I am, but I’m not going to let any outside standards or judgments confuse me about who I am,” and we feel that’s what is at the basis of all of this for you. When you let somebody in really close where they might really know [you], then you start worrying about what they really think, and we want all of you to reach the place where it just doesn’t matter to you so much what anybody else thinks -- it only matters to you how you feel. And when you reach that place then you attract those people that agree with that.

Does that make some sense to you?

We do not believe that anyone could sit in a room like this... and hear someone like Abraham, who knows the perfection of who you are, telling you how good you are, how wonderful you are, how really right you are, how really expansive and ever-changing you are, and we don’t think that any of you could get it even close to the way we know it and mean it. What we hope to do is to incite within you a desire to train yourself into that dominant thought. We want you to train yourself into self-appreciation. And you just do it one little thought at a time.

Want to talk some more?

Guest: No—that’s perfect.

Abe: One little thought at a time. We want your mistakes—whatever they may be—to strike you as humorous. [When it comes to] your opinion of yourself, no matter what, we want you to look for redeeming features. We no longer want the insecure masses who have surrounded you, who have used your errors as their justification for feeling better, who have convinced you that you are unworthy and inappropriate and flawed in this way and this way and this way as you don’t measure up to who knows what standards—we want you to just stand and sort of shake yourself off and begin saying, “I really don’t give a rip what any of you are thinking because none of you have concentrated upon me fairly. None of you have really known—none of you know who I am, none of you know how I am from Source, none of you have walked in my shoes. Nobody knows. Nobody knows. I have accepted this feeling of unappreciation unfairly and I’ve practiced it, and I’m no longer gonna do it.”

Abraham: Don't worry, honey. It's not real.

Abraham, Philadelphia, PA 10/13/04

Abraham: We want you to be very particular about the reality that you watch because the reality that you watch is only a movie that someone else has created. Everything that everyone else is living is as fictitious as the movie that you watch because it’s not real in the sense that it now has the power to jump into your experience.

When you go to a movie and you see something that frightens you, you say to your child, “Don’t worry honey, it’s not real.” And we want to say to you, you could see someone with cancer and you could as accurately say the same thing to that [child] “Don’t worry honey, it’s not real.” Because it has been created by the vibration of that person. It doesn’t have a reality of its own and the power to jump into your experience.

People will say, “Well Abraham, it’s truth, it’s real, it’s fact, therefore I should give my attention to it.”

And we say, “Did you hear what you just said? Someone else gave their attention to something that they did not want, did it long enough that the activated vibration became a dominant vibration until they created it in their experience. And because they have done that, I should do it too.”

And we say, “We wouldn’t.”

Seth: YCYOR Police Persecution

Seth (ESP Class, 3-19-74): 

After discussion of Seth’s remarks, Tom was relating what had been to him a quite disturbing encounter with a police officer recently. Seth returned, speaking to Tom:

Seth: You were so gloriously angry at the police officer because you did not express your natural anger at your children and did not feel able to do so fully, or to follow through with your feelings toward them. You feel persecuted by the police because they represent authority to you because you have not emotionally come to terms with yourself—in terms of authority—so they bear the brunt.

You also feel that your own emotions are underground, and that you must physically express them through body motion. You do not understand the nature of true force or aggression, and so it seems to you that they should be expressed through forceful and aggressive, in your terms, body reactions. You wanted to hit him in the face! You did not consciously accept the fact that you wanted to kick him.

Now listen!! You are used to following your emotions—only so far. Then you clamp down upon them. If you would follow them all the way, you would not be frightened of them. You think that physical action and boxing, for example, or karate, or physical motion is the only way to express aggressive action within an acceptable framework.

Now, you have work to do with your emotions, and listen to me, and for now at least do not interrupt. Argue with me after you have come to terms with your own emotional being.

You are as afraid, for example, of expressing the aggression of love fully as you are of those other emotions. Now, you may argue with me later when you read a transcript of what I have said. And my best wishes to you!

Seth Classic in 3 Steps: Open In Case of Trouble

Seth - The Way Toward Health - April 19th, 1984

Seth: There are certain simple steps that can be followed, whenever you find yourself in a difficult situation, whether the condition is one of poor health, a stressful personal involvement with another, a financial dilemma, or whatever.

These steps seem very obvious, and perhaps too easy—but they will bring an immediate sense of ease and peace of mind while your inner reserves are being released and activated.

I have mentioned these steps many times, because they are so vital in clearing the conscious mind, and bringing some sense of relief to the frightened ego.

1. Immediately begin to live in the present as much as possible. Try to become as aware as you can of present sense-data—all of it. Often, while you are in pain for example, you concentrate upon that sensation alone, ignoring the feelings of ease that may be felt by other portions of the body and unaware of the conglomeration of sounds, sights and impressions that are also in the immediate environment. This procedure will immediately lessen the pressure of the problem itself, whatever it is, and give you a sense of refreshment.
   
   
2. Refuse to worry. This fits automatically with step 1, of course. Tell yourself you can worry all you want tomorrow, or on some other occasion, but resolve not to worry in the present moment.
   
   
3. When your thoughts do touch upon your particular problem in that present moment, imagine the best possible solution to the dilemma. Do not wonder how or why or even when the ideal solution will come, but see it in your mind’s eye as accomplished. Or if you are not particularly good at visual imagery, then try to get the feeling of thanksgiving and joy that you would feel if the problem was solved to your complete satisfaction.

These steps will allow you breathing time, and actually help minimize the pressure of your situation, whatever it is. Then quieted, you will be able to consider other more suitable steps that may more directly address your particular solution.

Abe: Missing Someone Isn't Sweet. It's Sick.

Abraham - Boulder, Co, 6-09-07 

Your grandchild is not missing YOU. Your grandchild is missing the way he feels when he's with you. So many of you think it's sweet that they miss you. Well, it's not sweet. It's sick. You think that it's darling that they want to be with you. Well, it's not darling. It's dependent. 

You want to train them into alignment, not dependence on YOU...We want you to miss no one. And when you do have that feeling of loneliness, it's absence of your own inner being, that is what you're lonely for.

The only thing you ever miss is your alignment. And when you've got that down, then you'll always be tuned in, tapped in, turned on. And when you're tuned in, tapped in, turned on, then you're always having a wonderful moment, no matter where the moment is, or who the moment is with. Or without.

Seth: The Choice of Life and Death is Always Yours

Seth, The Nature of Personal Reality, SESSION 646, MARCH 7, 1973, 10:28 P.M. WEDNESDAY

Rob: (Just yesterday Jane received a letter from a woman who described the onset, a few years ago, of extraordinary feelings of transcendent love for mankind. Her profound emotions still continued, although she had them under control. She had told no one about them, though, and wanted to know if we could ask Seth about their meaning. In addition, she had recently received a medical verdict about the certainty of her death within a year or two.)

Seth: Now. A note to the woman whose letter you have there.

Give us a moment. . .

No man or woman consciously knows for sure which day will be the last for him or her in this particular life, that each calls the present one. Mortality with its birth and death is the framework in which the soul, for now, is expressed in flesh. Birth and death contain between them the earthly experience that you perceive as happening within a given period of time, through various seasons, and involving unique perceptions within areas of space-encountered with other human beings, all to one extent or another sharing with you events caused by the intersection of the self and time and space.

Birth and death then have their function, intensifying and focusing your attention. Life seems more dear in your terms, corporeal terms, because of the existence of death. It seems, perhaps, easier to have no conscious idea of the year or time that death might occur. Unconsciously of course each man and woman knows, and yet hides the knowledge.

The knowledge is usually hidden for many reasons, but the fact of death, personal death, is never forgotten. It seems obvious, but the full enjoyment of life would be impossible in the framework, now, of earthly reality without the knowledge of death.

You have been given an opportunity to study life and to experience it more fully than you ever have before in this existence. Its intensity and brilliance, its contrasts and similarities, its joys and its sorrows, are here for you to perceive, whose eyes are opened by the fact of the doctor’s pronouncement.

Now I tell you: That intensification, appreciated and understood, and the experience of life and living, accepted unconditionally, can bring you in this lifetime another birth in which the doctor’s pronouncements are meaningless. Spiritually the death sentence given you is another chance at life, if you are freely able to accept life with all of its conditions and to feel its full dimensions, for that alone will rejuvenate your spiritual and physical self.

The experience that you wrote of was significant on several levels, and of course was meant to reassure you ahead of time because of the events you knew would occur. The experience was to inform you emotionally and spiritually of the great meaning of each individual, portray the lovely brilliance that is within each human being, and let you know that the integrity of the self and the soul exists beyond the possibility of annihilation, as you yourself will continue to exist regardless of which path you choose to take ---dying within two years, or living physically on for many more. In other words, you will continue to exist and to be fulfilled within that love you sensed.

You felt before, unconsciously, that you were drifting and that life had little meaning. Beneath the surface of events you felt unfulfilled, and felt that you had great courage and abilities with never a chance to use them, and no “heroic” episodes then to rouse you to fuller understanding, and no real impetus to lift you or to bring excitement into your days.

Unconsciously, therefore, you chose a situation in which a crisis was precipitated, rousing all the greatest elements of heart and soul, so that they must strain to understand, to perceive, to triumph. And so you shall, in whatever way is most important for you, and you will learn more and be more fulfilled than you would have been had those conditions not been initiated.

This does not mean that there were not other ways available that you could have chosen. You chose the set of conditions that you did because in past existences you were so terrified of death that you tried to hide its knowledge from yourself, and this time you placed it in the forefront of your attention.

In the entire fabric of your existence, this life is a brilliant, eternally unique and precious portion, but only a portion, from which you emerge with joy and understanding, whether you die tomorrow or in years to come. The choice of life and death is always yours. Life and death are but two faces of your eternal, ever-changing existence, however. Feel and appreciate the joy of your own being. Many live into their nineties’ without ever appreciating to that extent the beauty of their being. You have lived before, and will again, and your new life, in your terms, springs out of the old, and is growing in the old and contained within it as the seed is already contained within the flower.

We are all travelers, whatever our position, and as one traveler to another, I salute you. 

End of reply.

Abraham: Momentary Anxiety Is NOT Destiny

Abraham - Boulder, CO- 6/15/02

Abraham: You see, some would say your world is about economics. Now we don’t agree with that, although much of your world seems to be driven by economics. And those who want to sell you something, want to activate within you a need for what they’re selling. That is a big part of the reason that so many of you feel anxiety. Because they’re getting very good at promoting things in ways to activate your anxiety.

And so what’s happened is, you like so many others have become someone who easily acquiesces to the vibration that they want you to vibrate, rather than choosing your own. And we say, actually these are Esther’s words. She’s been saying it a lot lately, “I can damn well choose my own vibration! (laughter) I can choose my own vibration! I can choose my own vibration! I can choose my own vibration! I can choose my own vibration! I can choose my own vibration! I can! I can! I can! I can! I can! I can! I can! I can! I can choose my own vibration! (laughter)

I do not have to (carry) the vibration within me that I picked up along my physical trail! I don’t have to carry the vibration of my mother or of a worrisome friend! I don’t have to carry the vibration that the television is hammering at me or that the government is hammering at me for whatever reason!”

In other words, when somebody wants you to do something, you always have to stop and ask yourself, “Why do they want to do this?” In other words, what’s in it for them? And when you begin to look at things in that way, you begin to understand that you get to choose your own vibration. You’re very good at it. 

And so the reason that you’re feeling anxiety is because every fiber of your being wants to feel joy, wants to know the well being that is your Source.  And when you fixate on things that don’t allow it, you sort of go berserk on some level of your being. And we’re glad. That means your guidance system’s working.

Your anxiety is not because the world is in trouble. Your anxiety is not because you’re in trouble. Your anxiety is because you're choosing a thought that doesn't match your desire, that’s all. 

In other words, it’s not because some big bad thing is gonna happen. You’re in no way near a vibrational proximity to anything like that. You're just someone who deserves and intends to be so in harmony with source, and when you're not, you can't stand it. That’s why you’ve got anxiety. So just practice, practice, practice, practice...

In other words, we want you to show yourself that you can feel good by conjuring your own thought. And once you’ve done that for a few days, you’ll be free. You’ll be free of all anxiety. Because we can feel that you believe us. We can feel that you believe that Well Being abounds. We can feel that you believe that you have the ability to conjure a vibration. And we can feel that you understand the Art of Allowing.

In other words, We think everything is intellectually lined up for you. We just don't think you've practiced it enough that you feel confident to go out and play a serenade for someone. Yes.

Guest: I don’t feel confident. Like you say, your emotions are your guideposts. And when I feel anxious, I don’t know if that’s just the anxiety or if that’s my intuition trying to tell me something or...

Abe: Well it, what it always is, negative emotion - whether you call it blame or guilt, or anxiety of fear - it doesn’t matter what you call it. Negative emotion always means the same thing. You are focused on something that doesn't match your desire. 

Sometimes a person will say, “I am too sensitive.” And we say, it’s like someone saying, “My hands are really sensitive and it’s painful for me to put them on the hot stove.” And we say, we don’t think sensitivity is your problem (laughter). We think, we think your problem is you’ve got your hands on the stove (laughter), you see.

And so bless that anxiety. That is sensors. In other words, that’s a very good sign. What it’s saying is, “Don't think this thought, this thought that doesn't line up.” It’s saying, “You would do well to de-activate this thought. You do not have to face reality. Some of reality is painful. Don't go to the painful parts of reality."

And as you show yourself that you can FEEL GOOD by pointing over there and that you feel bad by pointing over there. And that you CAN point over there. Then more and more, you point over there and anxiety goes away.

YOUR ANXIETY IS NOT WARNING YOU OF SOMETHING TO COME. Your anxiety is alerting you to a vibration that’s happening NOW.

You have POWER NOW. So just think about your hand on the stove and just laugh about it and say, “I can take my hand off the stove.” And as you practice this just a little bit, you’ll feel your CONFIDENCE come.

Because from what we feel from you, you are good at directing thought. You have a very clear mind. You’re good with words. You can focus easily. You concentrate easily. And that’s all that we’re talking about here. Just choosing the ones that feel good - instead of accepting anything that anybody wants to dump on you, you see. Yes.

Seth: Disgust with Car Leading to Need for Repairs

Seth - The Early Sessions - Book Five, Session 222

Rob had forgotten to put gasoline in the car and unknown to him on a conscious level, the oil was low. Driving up a hill one night with Jane, the car stalled. They had to back it down the hill to a driveway to turn it around, Jane using a flashlight to lead the way.

They coasted down the hill and managed to get the car started, but at home, even with gasoline, it would not start. They had it towed to the garage and they diagnosed moisture in the distributor. The next day it STILL wouldn’t work.

They had it towed to the garage AGAIN and this time they diagnosed corrosion in the coil connection. The service manager did not charge them for the second tow or repair because he said that they should have seen the problem the first time.

Here’s what Seth said:

When the trouble initially began, the most recent trouble, you were generally disgusted with the car, and your disgust led to the difficulties. NOT in a nebulous manner, but in very literal terms...

...The general and overall condition of the car was on its way to deterioration.

Now when your attitude began to change, it changed first on a subconscious level. Consciously you were not aware of the change. Now. You had already done some damage. The problem was to make it as minor as possible. It was therefore concentrated as corrosion on the coil, and this corrosion was NOT THERE when your garageman previously examined it.

The destructive elements were concentrated, given nice, neat tangible form, and therefore remedied in physical fashion.

Now you can do, that is any individual can do, and DOES, the same with the physical body. If his reactions cause a generalized overall poor condition, this is much more difficult to treat. But if this energy can be put into specific form, one pimple, one pain, one ulcer, at least the problem is recognized, localized and can be treated with somewhat less difficulty.

There was no need for your garageman to think, then, that the trouble had not been noticed, for when he examined the car last the overall condition WAS poor. But there was no specific physical or localized trouble. I thought that you would find this rather interesting.

Seth on Death and Cancer

Seth, The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events, Sess 866, Mass Events

Cancer, for example, has become the symbol for the body’s vulnerability, in current years—the proof of man’s susceptibility to the body. It is a disease that people have when they want to die—when they are ashamed to admit that they want to die, because death seems to fly against sane behavior. lf the species struggles to survive, then how can individuals want to die?

I have mentioned before that many people have had cancer and recovered without knowing it. In your belief system, however, it is almost imperative to see a doctor in such circumstances (as Jane wrote in Note 2 for Session 805), for many fears are unsubstantiated, and the fear alone, found groundless, gives the person new life symbolically and physically.

In the case of your article, a woman’s cells would already have had to prepare themselves for the guest—granted that guest was cancerous, and was a sperm. There is not an attack. There is an acceptance and a preparation for certain changes.

(Pause at 10:13.) A life crisis is formed. The “parasite,” or virus, plays its part in setting up such a psychologically-desired position. It is an emotionally-charged position, an imminent crisis. I am aware of the tormenting questions involved in such issues, and also of the gap between my explanations and the daily experiences of many people. The fact is that when death comes it is wanted; it has been chosen.

The fact is that death in its way is the culmination of a life, leading toward a new birth and new experience. The cells know this. So does the heart. People cannot admit that they want to die at certain times. If they could accept the fact of their own wishes, some could even change their minds. Many do: The psychological condition changes for the better, and the body cells are no longer amiable to the cancerous condition.

Seth Classic: New Job as an Event to be Activated

Seth, The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events, Session 822, Page 106

The inner ego is a portion of the self, for example — is the portion of your self — that is aware of your reincarnational activities. It is the part of you that exists outside of time, yet simultaneously lives in time.

You form your own reality.

The ego that you are aware of obviously could not form your body for you, however, or grow your bones. It knows how to assess the conditions of the world. It makes deductions. Your reasoning is highly important, yet alone it cannot pump your blood or tell your eyes how to see.

The inner ego does the actual work that brings about the events you have decided upon.

In very simple terms, if you want to pick up a book, and then do so, you experience that event consciously, though you are quite unaware of all the inner events that occurred to bring the motion about. The inner ego directs those activities.

If you want to change your job, and hold that desire, a new job will come into your experience in precisely the same fashion, in that the inner events will be arranged by the inner ego. A body event involves the working of numerous muscles and joints and so forth.

An event involving a job change concerns motion on the part of all of the inner egos involved. Obviously, then, a mass physical event implies an inner system of communications of proportions that would put your technological communications to shame.

Abe: Is the 2012 Prophecy Real?

Abraham - San Antonio - 9-8-07

Guest: So far as the Mayan calendar, this time-space-reality should be ending on December 21, 2012. Just want to get your...

Abraham: We'll talk to you in January of 2013 (audience laughter and applause). It is astonishing to us how many people are willing to let the shortsightedness of others control their life. 

Guest: If that is true, then I'm excited. 

Abraham: Ah, you see...we can hardly, we can hardly, we can hardly, we can hardly (audience laugher) find enough words to express the power with which this time-space-reality is expanding. This is not a shrinking Universe. This is not a shrinking world; this is an expanding world.

If you had any way of understanding, and you do through the power of your emotion. If you could feel what Source energy is driving as a result of the contrast that you are living. And what you all are putting into your vibrational escrow. Do you understand that? So, Source energy expresses a part of itself in you. You are like pioneers out here knowing what you don't want and knowing what you do want.

And so, with every picture you watch about global warming, you ask for an improvement in your environment with every thought about things not going well you ask for improvement. And as billions of you are doing that...can you imagine the vibrational escrow that is being amassed as a result of the experiences that you are living and have been living? 

And do you understand that it is from that vibrational stance that new energies are coming forth? So, you don't need to worry about all of these naysayers. We want you to understand, you have this wonderful thing going for you here out on this leading edge of creation on planet earth, and that is the dilution ratio. And by that we mean the old, disconnected ones are croaking right and left. (audience laughter) And in doing so, they are re-emerging back into pure positive energy where they are getting full view of things, where they're not pinched off anymore.

And new, fresh ones are being born all day, every day...who are being born from this vantage point of this furthest most leading edge. Do you understand that it is vibrationally impossible for those kinds of predictions to be true? They defy everything. There is no regression. There is only expansion. This planet is not coming to an end. It is barely beginning. Barely beginning. (enthusiastic audience applause)

You knew that so powerfully when you came forth. You didn't say, I'll go forth and I'll just dribble along until the end. You said, I'll go forth and I'll let this dynamic environment out there on the leading edge of thought inspire me, unique genius creator that I am, to a new impulse for desire. And I know when that rocket of desire shoots out of me, all that creates worlds will flow forth through me, toward it. And there will be a place marker held for me and for all others. And all we have to do is listen to the call of Source and come toward it. 

And in your despair, you pinch yourself off from that. And in your despair, you shout to the rafters your shortsightedness of well-being. And we say, of course you can't see well-being when you are in despair. You have yourself blinded to it and pinched off from it. You've got yourself blocked from the view of it. You must be in your joy and in your appreciation and in your passion and in your eagerness to know the expansiveness of this Universe. 

Don't let shortsighted others discourage you. Their discouragement is about their relationship with their vibrational stream. It's about the gap between who they really are and who they are letting themselves be. We promise you it has nothing to do with the longevity of this planet. Good.

Seth on the Meaning of the 1979 Iran Hostage Crisis

Seth - Session 891 - 12/26/79- Dreams, Evolution, and Value Fulfillment, Volume 1

Seth: Like the entire American hostage affair (in Iran), any physical event serves as a focus that attracts all of its probable versions and outcomes.

The hostage situation (now in day 53) is a materialized mass dream, meant to be important and vital on political and religious platforms of reality, meant to dramatize a conflict of beliefs, and to project that conflict outward into the realm of public knowledge.

Everyone involved was consciously and unconsciously a willing participant at the most basic levels of human behavior, and it is of course no coincidence that 1980 is immediately foreshadowed by that event. What will the world do with it?

Your TV and news systems of communication are a part of the event itself, of course. It is in a way far better that these events occurred now, and in the way that they have, so that the problems appear clearly in the world arena.

They are actually thus of a far less violent nature than they might otherwise have been. Religious beliefs will be examined as they have not been before, and their connections and political affiliations. The Arab world still needs the West, and again, it is better that those issues come to light now, while they must to some extent consider the rest of the world.

Do not personally give any more conscious consideration, either of you, to events that you do not want to happen. Any such concentration, to whatever degree, ties you in with those probabilities, so concentrate upon what you want, and as far as public events are concerned, take it for granted that sometimes even men are wiser than they know.

Abe: Can You Trust Men?

Blogger note: This post is a transcript of an mp3 from twitter.com/AbrahamFan.

Abraham - G-7-24-04

Q: I want to trust men…

A: You don’t want to trust men. You don’t want to trust men. You want to be able to think about men and feel good at the same time. Get rid of that ‘trust’ word; that ‘trust’ word will trip you up. IOW, you want to be able to think of a man, or think of men, or think of yourself with a man, or think of yourself in a relationship with a man, and feel good at the same time. And you have to train yourself to do that. And when you do, one that feels like that can come to you, you see.

There are so many words like ‘love’ and ‘trust’ and ‘worthiness’ that just activate all this chaos in you. And ‘trust’ is really one of those words. How do you trust… We’ll tell you what you can trust. You can trust that law of attraction will match you up with what you’re putting out there.

So instead of saying, ‘I don’t trust men,’ say, ’I’ve been offering a vibration that brings to me stuff I don’t want. I think I’ll change my vibration.’ So now suddenly, it’s not about whether they’re trustworthy or not, it’s about whether you’re practiced in your vibration. Whole different thing, isn’t it?

When you say, ‘No, this isn’t an issue of being able to trust them. This is an issue of me being able to soothe myself into a place that I can let the things in that I want in. I’m in charge of what comes to me.’

You’re right, the opening was for you because you and so many others are saying ‘you need to be different so that I can feel better.’ And we say, ‘Good Luck’ because they don’t owe it to you, they don’t even care about you, and it’s not because they’re bad; it’s because they are selfishly-oriented, too.

You finally got to say, ‘I’m selfishly-oriented. You’re selfishly oriented. I’m selfishly-oriented. You’re selfishly-oriented.’

And then in time you’ll be able to stop saying, ‘You need to do something different. You need to take me into consideration first.‘ Because what you’re saying to them is ‘You have to give up what matters most to you.’

Now there are a lot of churches, there are a lot of social structures that would teach that that’s the way you’re supposed to be, but it goes cross current of the whole nature of the universe. Everyone is oriented from the perspective of self and you care passionately about how you feel.

Feel the difference between saying, ‘You care more about you than you do about me, and that hurts my feelings,’ and saying, ‘You care more about you, than you do me and that’s normal. And I care more about me, than I do about you, and that’s normal.’ And what’s not normal is me thinking that if I care about how you care about me that you’ll be able to change how you care about me so that I will feel better. That’s…. never going to work.

So then you say, ‘Oh, so you care more about your feelings than you do my feelings. Oh yeah… that’s how we all are. Never mind.’

And then you don’t say, ‘I can’t trust you to do what I need you to do,’ you say, ‘I trust you to do what you need to do and I wouldn’t ask you to distort your experience, and do what I need you to do because that can never last; that’s why I’ve concluded that none of you are trustworthy. None of you are willing to give up what is most important to you for me. I’ve been barking up the wrong tree all this time. So what I want to do is just beat the drum of who I am purely and clearly and proudly and the Universe will bring someone to me that matches me. I can trust that.’

Abraham: Your Vibrational Résumé

Abraham - Sacramento -7/27/02

Q: Can you give me any insight on attracting a right work?
Abraham:

Well, there are endless possibilities for you. And you have been through your work and through your awareness of downsizing and through the work that you have not liked and through the work you HAVE liked...you’ve set off a very powerful vibrational resume. In other words, the Universe really knows who you are and what you like to do and what you’re good at and where your desires are.

And as you are in a place that is vibrationally neutral...in other words, not pushing against the things you didn’t like, then the Universe - IS yielding yielding to you - but you will allow the receiving of what the Universe is yielding. In other words, we want to say to you, it’s not your job to figure out how, where, when, who. It’s your job to know what you want to and to know how you want to feel and to trust that the Universe knows in detail everything that will please you and is yielding it to you and you’ll know it when you see it.

Our encouragement to you is to trust that it is coming...it ABSOLUTELY is coming. You cannot be as clear as you are in your desire and have the Universe not having ALREADY achieved and lined up circumstances and events. You just have to chill out an let it come and trust that you’ll know it when you see it.

And it won’t be a “Yeah, maybe mmm mmm mmm mmm, yes, no, yes, no”, sort of thing. It’ll be a “Yes!!” It’ll be a “Yes! This is what I’m wanting to do. Yes! Yes! This is it.”

Abraham: Internal Connection Trumps External Validation

Abraham, San Rafael, CA,  March 2003

Guest: What gets in my way is attachment or focus to the outcome. What you're saying is that it's joy for joy's sake in the moment.  It's not to try and get something ... It just occured to me, that a certain outcome meant that I was worthy. I was measuring my worthiness by the quality of the outcome.

Abraham: Thats because instead of using your joy as your success meter, you had been using the appreciation of others, in other words, others say to you ‘this makes me happy and this makes me sad, so if you want to make me happy you have to do this..’. So you learn to perform by others standards in the quest for their appreciation.  And thats why we say all their appreciation ever did was be a catalyst to hook you up to source energy. Why not go directly to the root of source energy? Why not leave everyone else and what they think out of the equation? And when you learn to leave them out, then you can go directly to the thought that feels better and life is fun right now.

Abraham: The Energy of this Time and Place is Strong

Abraham-Hicks Daily Planning Calendar Page 669

Abraham: It has never been more important for those upon planet Earth to understand the creative process, for never before has the creative energy been so powerful.

Never before have your thoughts translated into actual physical manifestation so rapidly. Never before has there been so much potential for the glorious exaltation that comes with receiving that which is wanted--and never before has there been the potential for so much painful experience from setting into motion that which is not wanted.

This time, is a glorious time. A time of great wanting. A time of much more allowing and a time of much more receiving. And with all of that, a time of contentment, satisfaction, peace, joy, exhilaration and, indeed, ecstasy.

But each of you chooses the degree of satisfaction, contentment, peace, love, joy, or ecstasy that you will experience for there is a broad range of that which may be experienced, and all of it hinges upon your willingness to make decisions about what you want, and your belief, or knowing, that that which you think IS.

Abraham: Resist Not Bullies

Abraham -Boise, ID 7/3/02

What you’re saying is, ‘when someone gathers forces, who seems to be a bully, and wants to push against another, shouldn’t someone rise up big enough to push back?’ And we say, all you end up with is bigger and bigger pushing against, and more and more using each other as your excuse not to allow your well being.

Guest: “So you would say that, like, America and Britain would’ve just become invisible to Hitler if they had assumed this philosophy?”

Abraham: “You would not provide the fodder to the fire that keeps him fueled. If there were no one pushing back at him, the majority of the energy that he had amassed would have been non-existent. If you weren’t pretty good at understanding well being, as [the bully’s] poking at you with a stick, you’re probably going to get provoked, which is exactly what he wants—so, as he provokes you, and you now turn your attention, now you’re engaged—which is what he had in mind the whole time.

Someone who wants power doesn’t want passivity, doesn’t want somebody not interested; They want somebody to push back against them! In other words, you can’t have a war unless there’s somebody that’s fighting against you, but it does not mean that you have to play the game.

So here you stand—and you say, ‘I’m going to choose what’s dominant in my vibration.’ So he pokes at you, and you notice that the world’s beautiful over there—and he pokes at you, and you notice that there’s well-being over there, and he pokes at you, and you notice that he’s a non-issue. You notice that your life goes pretty well except when you’re being poked a little; and less and less do you notice his poking, and more and more do you notice well-being, until you literally become so vibrationally different from him that the poking is no longer any fun for him—because you vibrated out of range, and others vibrated into range. His enemies bring themselves right to him.

What goes wrong with humans, is they say, ‘I want world peace’—and we say world peace is none of your business! Personal peace is. There is no possible way of getting everyone to agree.

So then you say, ‘Yes, but what if I ignore him and so I disengage him from my vibration. What about the others that he’s trampling? What about those that don’t know as much as I do?’, and we say now you’re back involved. In other words, you get to choose. So, finally, when you say, ‘I don’t have to figure it out for any of them, and I’m going to align with the energy of well-being’, and follow that path, then it’s easier for you to watch everyone else play out their game.

Abraham on Anger: Fighting to Breathe

Abraham - Buffalo, NY 5/24/05 

There are so many people who feel such despair because they've been taught by powerful people around them that they should not get angry. And you know what? If somebody pressed a pillow to your face, you would fight for the oxygen that you want to survive. And anger, is fighting for the vibration that you need to survive, you see.

Seth on Riots and Natural Disasters Part 2

Seth, The Nature of Personal Reality, Session 666

(Part 1 can be found here.)

Seth: The fact is that your society often involves you in petty annoyances and problems that do not bring out your full strengths; disasters often serve as encounters with nature, in which you can experience the great power and range of your own identities in a situation in which you are pushed to the utmost.

In a highly materialistic society, the loss of an expensive home and other material possessions is a matter of great practical and symbolic nature. Many individuals therefore sought out that experience. Many also found themselves reacting with a heroism they did not realize they possessed. A sense of community unity was born, a deep feeling of companionship that had not existed earlier.

War has often served as an emotional stimulus, as an escape in terms of drama, excitement and belonging for those who have felt alone, powerless and isolated. In its own way, a neighborhood fire serves the same purpose, among others, and so does a local or regional disaster. The nature of your conscious mind demands change and dramatic meaning, a sense of power, and aspirations against which to judge individual direction.

A “perfect” society, idealistically speaking, would provide these qualities by encouraging each individual to use his potentials to the fullest, to revel in his challenges, and to be led on by his great natural excitement as he tries to extend powers of creative potency in his own unique way.

When such opportunities are denied then there are riots, wars, and natural catastrophes. A sense of power is any creature’s right. I speak here again of power as the ability to act creatively and with some effectiveness. A dog chained too long often becomes vicious. A man who believes his actions have no value seeks out situations in which he uses his power to act, yet often without worrying about whether the action will have a constructive or negative effect.
