Vibrational Frequencies and Creations of Realities

Guest: Ive heard for many years that we createour own reality, and I have always wondered,more specifically, how do we create our ownreality?

Long before my Spirit took part in this flesh,I have been projecting thought into this reality.

Abraham: When you say, We create our ownreality or I create my own reality, the firstthing you have to do is accept that I didnt juststart with this body that was born back inwhenever it was born. I am a very old being thathas been projecting thought into this time/spacereality long before my Spirit took part in thisflesh. And so, I and others like me, have projectedall of this.

GUEST: Okay. So what Im understanding fromyou is that there are lots of different vibrationalfrequencies and groupings of frequencies, and theplatform that is my current agreement has anaverage vibrational frequency. And it is out of thataverage frequency that my contrast occurs, andmy desires come out of that. And all I need to dois use my Guidance System to sense the thingsthat are basically of a higher vibrationthingsthat make me feel better. And by controlling thefocus of my attention on those things, then that

pulls forth the Energy from my Inner Being thatflows toward that and creates more of it...So, themain thing that I should be working on is myability to focus and to maintain a focus?

Does Your Desire Feel Good?

Abraham: Heres the thing that we want you tohear: The contrast provides stuff to focus uponand gives you the variety that, naturally, without

effort, gives birth to the desire within you. Sothats just a natural consequence of coming intoan environment that produces that.

So now, the desire is within you. It was born outof the lovely contrast, and now your work is,singularly, to align your Energy with this new-found desire, which means think about thissubject that has been born within youand feelgood at the same time. Thats the modulationprocess: Think about your desire until it feelsgood. Think about it until it feels familiar. Thinkabout it until feeling like this, feels like the mostnormal thing in the world to you. And when youand your new desire are in alignmentthen themanifestation occurs.

Born of contrast, that new desire within you is thereason the entire Universe Exists.

We often say to you: Think about what you wantand decide what you want; decide what youwant. And the reason that you hear ushammering about that, so much, is because mostpeople are running around making decisions aboutwhat they dont want. We are wanting you to letthe contrast, of course, tell you what you dontwant, but then always look for the nugget withinit. We want you to feel the nugget, the prize, thewonderful uncovering. The fresh new desire thatis born is the reason that the entire Universe

existsand once the desire is born within you,then the Non-physical Energy will answer it.The saddest thing that exists in the humanexperience is when a being allows the contrast tolet a desire be born, and then keeps himself,through old habits of thought, vibrationally out ofsync with the new desire. Almost all of thephilosophies that you have inherited, and that youteach to one another, on this planet about whythings work the way they work, come from thatnot understanding how I could possibly be

deprived of the things that I want? And yet itssuch a simple thing, once you begin to understandthe vibrational nuances, and once you begin tounderstand: The reason that I have feelings, isbecause of two things: Im summoning the Non-physical Energy by virtue of my desire. And Imallowing it, or not allowing itby virtue of mythought or belief.

When we first began articulating through Esther,the words that we used were these: When yourdesire and your belief are the sameit is. And, inthose early days, the words that Esther found toexpress what we are offering here, with many


3/187

more words, said: When there is something thatyou wantyou must believe it.

Thats a hard thing for people to grasp, becauseyouve been carrying some of theseuncomfortable beliefs around for a long time. Andwe would like to help all of you let yourselves offthe hook, because you cant buck Law ofAttraction (That which is like unto itself isdrawn). If youve been thinking this thought andthinking this thought and thinking this thought,thats the thought thats active in you now. AndLaw of Attraction is going to bring you more stuffthat matches that thought all the time. And thenyou beat up on yourself. You say, I shouldnt bethinking those thoughts, when, in truth, you cantstop thinking those thoughts, because your radiosignal is programmed to those, and so Law of

Attraction is bringing you more. Thats thetrouble that most people have with this businessof You create your own reality. Try as you will,you cant buck that current, you see.

Dormant Beliefs Dont Affect You

We dont want you to try to buck that current. Wewant you to start setting a Tone that is more inalignment with the current that is really alreadyyou. You can be chuck full up to the brim wtih

beliefs that do not serve you welland not one ofthem will affect you unless it is activated. Andwhen it is activated, youll have a feeling responseto it.

When a belief that is not in harmony with yourSource Energy is activated, youll get that funnyfeeling in your stomach. And as you get thatfunny feeling in your stomach, what it is tellingyou is: This thought in this moment does notmatch who you are and what you are wanting.

And so, you have a simple choice. You can gowith it, you can try to beat it to death, you can getpeople together, you can try to isolate it, you canadd to it and get it bigger and bigger, or you can,as Jesus said, turn the other cheek, and allow thatvibration to become inactive again, while you aretuning your vibration to that which feels better.

If It Feels Good, Choose It

And so, you see, its all about choices. Whichfeels better? Does it feel better to be connected tomy Source, or not? Connected would feel better!Clarity or confusion, which feels better? Vitalityor a tired body, which feels better? Abundance or

poverty, which feels better? Connection orresistance...?

And so, it isnt complicated, but we have to dosuch a sales job to convince you dear beings thatit is right for you to seek that which feels good.Somehow youve come to believe that if it feelsgood, you should be feeling guilty about it. If itfeels good, there must be something wrong withit. And we say, however did that become such abig part of your mass consciousness, when there isnot a shred of evidence that supports thatanywhere in the Universe?!

Everythings out there pulsing. So heres someoneexperiencing a terrible experience. And I see it.And I dont want it. I dont want it for them, and Idont want it for me. But as I address it, my

switch is on. So Im not only adding to it forthem, Im adding to it for me. Now most humanswould say, Well, Esther, do not turn away fromthis and put your head in the sand. And Abrahamwould say, Esther, turn away from thisandachieve vibrational harmony with something else.

If Esther sees some horrible thing and she says,No, no, I want not that, what I want is... and outof this abhorrent thing a desire is born, and Estheris wise enough to turn her attention now only to

the desire, and find vibrational harmony with thedesirenow that situation has benefited All-That-Is, because something very powerful and verygood has come out of it.

But if Esther does like many people do, and getsstuck in what she sees here, so she suffers, indespair, and adds to the negative, or even if shetakes the next step where she says, Oh I dontwant this, I dont want it to touch me, and looksaway, but then feels guilty because shes not

helpingno good comes from any of that. Thenshe has just started one of those other vibrations,so all kinds of bad things start showing up in herexperience. And then, on her tombstone, it says,See, I told you this is how it was.

Esther is always reaching for the best possiblefeelings that she can find prior to one of thesegatherings, because she wants to be as connectedas she can to Source Energy before you beginsummoning Abraham through her. And she saidto Jerry, this morning, Whats one of the bestfeelings that you can ever remember from one ofthese gatherings? She was reaching for a feeling.And Jerry said Are you asking for a room or a


4/187

face or a question? Esther said, Im reaching forthe feeling. And Jerry said, Well, I always lovethe feeling at the end of the session, wheneveryone is feeling fulfilled and satisfied andconnected and glad and empowered and secure,and knowing who they are. And Esther said,Yeah, thats what I meant, thats what I meant.Shes reaching for the feeling, the feeling ofempowerment. There isnt anything in the worldthat feels better to a teacher than to empoweranother.

In This Moment, Which Thought Feels Better?Lets say that someone made you feel a littleinsecure. And out of that feeling of insecurity isborn, in this moment, a stronger-than-usual desireto feel empowered and know who you are. Use

whatever means you need to, but just reach for thebest feeling. How did it feel? Whats the bestfeeling? And so, heres this new desire pulsing,this fresh new nugget. Oh, its alive and well,summoning Life Force through you, right here inthe now. So here youre feeling it, right now. Thisfresh, new desire. And then, you just try toremember ever having felt like you now want tofeel. And just by reaching for that, just by saying,Have I ever felt like that?.. right away, thosethings will become be active again in your

memory of when you felt like that. And youllsay, I remember this, and I remember this, and Iremember this and youll cross the 17-secondmark and the 34-second mark and the 51-secondmark focused on that which feels good, and youllstand here in your powerful now, having activatedevery powerful moment that youve ever lived.And here it is, an apex, a vortex, right here andnow. This is what youve achieved, all out ofsome little slight that someone offered you. Oh,what a gift that was!

The Eternal Evolution of SpiritJust go through your day-to-day experience, letyour exposure happen as it will, because Law ofAttraction says that it must, and when and if youget an emotional responsewhether it is positiveor negativestop in the middle of that feeling,and acknowledge whether its connecting you toSource or not. If it is connecting you to Source, gowith it. Milk it for all its worth. If it isntconnecting you to Source, but doing the opposite,then take your pivot: I know what I dont want.What is it that I do want?

Let the desire be born, and then try to find thefeeling place of that. Try to remember somethingelse like that. Come back into your power. Andthen stand on that new platform where you willnow have access to things in your environmentthat a moment ago, you didnt have access to.This is the eternal evolution of the spirit that ispulsing within you.

Jerry and Esther checked into a hotel, and theperson at the front desk was in a terrible mood.And as Esther stood there, she couldnt help buttake responsibility for her rendezvous point withit. And that even irritated her more. Its badenough that somebodys being rude, but to acceptyour responsibility in meeting up with them

And so, Esther thought about it and realized that it

was sort of where shed last left her vibrationabout that hotel, and so it was logical. And as shewas talking to us about it, she was still wanting tosay, But Abraham, dont you think that maybe itwould be beneficial for the hotel to know that theyhave a really rude person behind the desk? Andwe said, well, but which feels better, to pursuethat thought, or to choose another thought thatfeels better? And Esther said, Well, yeah, yeah,yeah. But Abraham, dont you think that underthese conditions, shouldnt somebody call

somebody? Shouldnt something be done aboutthis?

The business person in Esther, says, Well, if myemployees are mistreating people, I would like toknow about it. And we say, no, you wouldnt.Youre better off not knowing about it. In otherwords, let Law of Attraction shake it all down.You dont have to be the monitor of that sort ofthing.

You have one question: Which feels better?Which feels better, this thought or this thought?Sometimes that seems like such a big thing tochoose from, because there are infinite thoughts,but there are not infinite thoughts in this moment.In this moment, your environment is so perfectlyestablished. In this moment, there are only acertain number of thoughts for you to consider.Not too many for you to choose.

As you choose thoughts that feel better on dayone,on day two, youll have access to a wholedifferent set of choices.


5/187

And on day three, therell be available to you,a whole different set of choicesbecause each day you will have re-establishedyour Vibrational Tone to your pure, positiveSource Energy.

As you start, on day one, deliberately choosingthe thought that feels betteron day two, you willhave access to a whole different set of choicesthan you would have if you had not made thosechoices on day one. And on day three, there willbe a whole different set of choices now availableto youbecause each day you will haveestablished your Vibrational Tone to your pure,positive Source Energy. Until in thirty days ofplaying with this, you can be a living, breathing,eating, light being.

Being Deliberate Does Take PracticeBut it takes some practice to say, which feelsbetter? Which feels better, this thought of mymother, or this thought of my mother? ButAbraham, you dont understand. This is who mymother is, mostly. That wasnt the question.Which feels better, this thought or this thought?But Abraham, you dont understand... Thatwasnt the question. Which feels better, is theonly question--thats the only question that your

Guidance System is asking. Which feels better,this thought or this thought?

Which feels better, to praise or to criticize? Oh,but you dont understand, theres nothing to praiseand theres lots to criticize. Thats not ourquestion. Which feels better? Which feels better?But Abraham, you dont understand. You didntsee what happened. No, we didnt. Were notvibrating there with you. But our question to youis, which feels better, which feels better? But,

but, but, but Abraham, you need to be here wherewe are so that you understand what were tryingto tell you. Which feels better?is the only thingthat your Guidance System is asking you.

So which feels better, to pronounce to the worldor to myself, Im not free? Or to pronounce to theworld, I can make more decisions?

Nobody can get inside your head and make youthink. Sometimes it feels like it, because theyreclamoring in your face so loud with whatevertheyre saying. But you have the ability, if it isyour desire, to feel good. You have the ability towithdraw from whatever thought is bothering you,

get off to yourself, and reclaim your connection toSource Energy. And that is the freedom that youare looking for.

You have the ability to look here where there isnot resistance. Jesus said, to turn the other cheek,and thats exactly what he was talking about.Resist not evil. Turn the other cheekandachieve vibrational harmony with that which feelsbetter.

All of you have access to Source Energy! It isalways within you, always radiating through you.Sometimes you are providing a shadow thatdoesnt let it shine, more than others, andsometimes you are letting it shine fully. But themore you are letting the fullness of who you areradiate through you, the better you feel about

everythingand the more you are contributing tothe whole of things. However, in any case, youcannot get it wrong!

A State of Perpetual Creative

Motion

From the Quarterly JournalJan/Feb/Mar

Often people are very uncomfortable about theword want, because wanting sounds like not beingthere yet or wanting sounds like still being in lack.Law of Attraction abounds, and when it is said toyou, Ask, and it is given, there is no morepowerful statement that is at the basis of whatmakes things happen than that.

Ask, and it is given. There is no more powerfulstatement that is at the basis of what makes thingshappen than that.

Now, how is it that you think you ask? With yourwords? The Universe doesnt hear your words.You ask with your desire. The desire that is bornout of the contrast. That desire. That wanting.Thats what summons the Life Force. And so, wewant you to always be in that place of wanting.

Always in that place of desire.

Sometimes, someone says, Well, I dont want anew car. Ive got it. Well, we still want them todesire the car. We want them to continue to desirethe benefit of the car. We want them to desiretransportation. We want them to still desiremovement around the city. Because if you everget to a place where you have not desire, youllcease to be. Dont worry. It cant happen. Youcould pinch yourself off from it here, and croak,

but youd re-emerge back into the Nonphysicalwhere your wanting is sublime and eternal. Andyou would re-emerge back into the physical veryfast, because wanting is your most natural thing.

Are we eternal beings? Do you accept that? Doyou understand why we are all eternal? Do youunderstand, or yet believe, that Law of Attractionis dominant? Law of Attraction, which says: Thatwhich is like unto itself, is drawn?

From the Nonphysical, you imagined yourselfhere. You set the desire out in advance, andsummoned yourself here. It is all about Law ofAttraction.

So, if there is no such thing as assertion, if its allabout attraction, can you understand that we areeternal beings because the contrast gives birth to adesire and the desire summons the Life Force?We are not standing in the Nonphysical assertingat you. You have, from the Nonphysical,imagined yourself here. You set the desire out inadvance, and you summoned yourself here fromthat vantage point. It is all about attraction. Youtip toe around this when you think about the ideaof perpetual motion. But at the basis of it is Lawof Attraction: Here I stand. I imagine. I give birthto a desire. That desire springs forth, and then thatdesire, which is a part of me, now summons LifeForce to itself through me. And then, there I standin that new vantage point with a new set ofcontrasting experiences to give birth to new

desire, and that new desire then moves forth,summons Life Force to itself through me, and Istand in a whole new place with a whole new setof contrasting experiences to give birth to newdesire.

Youre never going to get it done, and those ofyou who have been tired, we know that isdepressing to you. But we say to you, the onlyreason you are tired is because you are full ofresistance.

Oh, to have desire and get it out there and knowthat it will be fulfilled, and the Energy flowingthrough you. And then, another desire that you getout there and you want it to be fulfilled, and theEnergy flows through you, the passion, the eternalpassion that flows through you, eon after eon aftereon. Can you imagine that sort of Energy flowingthrough you? Youre trying to summon it, but notletting it through.

And so, what goes wrong for many people is thatthey summon more Energy than they have learnedhow to allow, or they dont summon Energy. Forthe most part, youre summoning more Energythan you can allow, so you give yourself aheadache. Or youre afraid to summon it, so yourbored. Its a fine line. Isnt it? Its a balance.Youre constantly refiguring. Constantly makingnew decisions. Making a new decision, finding anew desire, and feeling the freshness of the desire.

The other day, Esther broke something as she wasdusting, and she said, Oh, good, something elseto buy. For years, she says to Jerry as she walkspast a beautiful thing, What do you think of


7/187

that? Jerry says, Where would we put it? Nowshe has a place. Something to want.

That feeling of desire feels so good. We highlyrecommend it. In fact, we think it would bewonderful if when you went home, it was gone,altogether. Ah, to be in a state of all new, in astate of all new. It would be so wonderful to be ina place where your desire was peaked again. Its afine line because, in truth, you have enough desirewithin you to keep yourself busy for 20 or 30 lifetimes, but there is something so delicious aboutpersonally articulating a desire and then findingyour balance within it and feeling thedeliciousness of that fresh desire bubbling withinyou.

A desire that is within you that is not laced with

doubt, is divine. A desire that is within you that iscovered with doubt, is yearning. And yearning hasresistance in it. So, feel your way through this,and if it doesnt feel good, back off.

If you have desires and theyre not coming, stepback from the specifics of them and begin talkingabout why you want them. And in the moregeneral discussion of why you want them, youwill lower your resistance, and the desire will thenbegin to bring you pleasure.

Jerry has been such a meterer. He wants to savorthe creation. Esther wants it all, now. Jerry wantsto savor it as it comes. They are that way withtheir food. Esther eats hers quickly. Jerry, 20minutes later, still pondering. Esther is trying tosnatch his plate out from under him before he isfinished. There is something wonderful aboutsavoring as you go, and in the savoring,understanding that there is no limitation, butwanting to milk each moment for all the pleasure

that it can bring.

They are in a process of building a new office,which means, they could hire an architect andhave it built and go home and find it there, or theycould get involved in it. Yesterday, as they aredriving about, they stopped at several buildingsand just looked at roof lines and surfaces andstructural design and the way it sits in the landand window treatments and how the doors open,and received more pleasure in an afternoon of justobserving a combination of things, than mostreceive in the whole process of building abuilding.

Most of you dont quite yet get it that life issupposed to be fun, and that you are here in aCreative Workshop of enormous proportion, andit is your work to use the data of this time andspace to create, within your imagination,combinations that please you. And when you hitupon one that really pleases you, the Universeknows that. The Universe feels the signal andstarts moving things into place.

Life is supposed to be fun. You are here in aCreative Workshop. It is your work to use the dataof this time and space to create, within yourimagination, combinations that please you. Andwhen you hit upon one that really pleases you, theUniverse feels the signal and starts moving thingsinto place.

Esther said, how odd it is they keep findingthemselves in a building, and one or the other ofthem will say, Isnt this the way our windows aregoing to be? How odd it is that the Universe iseven designing where they eat lunch, in order togive them the data that they have achievedvibrational harmony with.

You have an enormous staff working on yourbehalf ready to give you any information that you

desire and any information that you are ready for.Toward what end? Toward completing thebuilding? No. Toward some physicalmanifestation? No. Toward some reward inHeaven? No. For the sheer joy of the expansionthat you feel as Life Force flows through you.

But, Abraham, there must be more. There mustbe another reason. There must be a bigger reasonthan for my joy. There isnt. Arent I here toserve something? Isnt there some end that Im

getting to? There is no end. Everything, all life,is in the moment. All life is in the moment, andyou have this magnificent body and this incredibleconsciousness, that is your focal point, right now,where you focus the Energy that creates worldsinto this powerful now.

We give this to you not because you haveresponsibilities that you are not fulfilling. We saythis to you because we want you to relax andaccept the perfection of what you are. We wantyou to understand that you cannot get it wrong.We want you to understand that you are adecipherer of data. We want you to understandthat all of the contrast exists to assist you in, here

and now, coming to a decision of how you, youmagnificent Creator, would like to flow theEnergy that creates worlds, now. This is who youare.

So, you cant get it wrong. You cant squander it.You cant not use it enough. You cant doanything wrong, and you, individually, get todecide how much Life Force, or Energy, yousummon. If its too much, or more than you areable to allow in this moment, back off. Of thatwhich you have summoned, how much are youallowing to flow through you? Or are youdisallowing or resisting the Energy? You get tochoose every part of this. This is who you are.

All Ailments Resolve

Themselves

From the Quarterly JournalApr/May/Jun


Also in GAF01 (ten tapes) Buy AlbumSan Rafael, CA

All things do resolve themselves, if allowed. Allthings do. ALL things do resolve themselvesifallowed

You say, Some things resolve themselves, andyou believe that. And when we say all thingsresolve themselves, you dont really believe that.You want to, but you dont have personal proof

about it.Theres the belief that says, Well, I really dontbelieve all things resolve themselves, and as youactivate that vibration, all kinds of people startshowing up with un-resolved things. But thatsnot the evidence youre wanting to attract. Yourewanting evidence that says, All things canresolve themselves.

Bridge your locked off statement by saying,

Well, I dont know how Ive been disallowing it.Ive been doing it without knowing Im doing it.But now I am aware that negative emotion meansIm doing it, and Im going to start watching forthose moments when Im not allowing it.

If we were standing in your physical shoes, wedlie in bed every night and talk to the cells of ourbody, and expect the recovery, and we would feelthe sensation of it. We would put ourselves in asmuch comfort as we could, as often as we could

for about a weekaligning Energy, relaxing intothe discomfort, talking to the cells, knowing thatthey are summoning and that Source Energy isanswering, knowing that we are receiving andallowing; and acknowledging, In this moment,Im not doing anything thats causing anydiscomfort in my body. I feel perfectlycomfortable. I feel such appreciation in thisperfectly comfortable moment. In this mode ofdistraction, or in this mode of focused comfort,Im in this place of appreciationIm in thisplace of allowing. (Our attitude would be, Letme see my physical progress.")

Just allow yourself to receive what the Universe isoffering. Before you know it, your body will beback in alignment.

Every bit of allowing is going to bring you greaterand greater results. Give the cells of your body anopportunity to make their request; give yourselfthe opportunity to receive what the UniversalForces are offeringand before you know it, yourbody will be back into alignment.

So many people are convinced that their physicalbodies are in a stateonce you reach a certainstage of lifeof steady decline. It is amazing theamount of expectation that is wrapped aroundthat. And it is absolutely opposite of what youveintended, of what your cells know how to do

and of what Source Energy is supplying.You do not need to decline. It is only yournegative expectationor your worrying about thisand that, and the otherthat pinches off theEnergy. You dont decline because your bodywears out. You decline because you disallowmore of the resources that keep you feeling good.Thats all. Every single time. There are noexceptions to that

Allowing Your Natural Well-

being

From the Quarterly JournalApr/May/Jun


Also in GAF02 (ten tapes) Buy AlbumAshland, OR

The only reason that you dont allow your naturalWell-being is that you have experiences--presented by others, presented by your own lifeexperience, presented by your own conclusions--that cause you to offer vibrations that do not allowthe Well-being that is natural to you. That is theonly reason that you do not allow.

Little ones allow. In other words, we think thatyou get a little older in your thinking when youthink about the newborn that comes forth, becausethey appear to be so dependent. And, in fact, theyneed your physical support. But then, when yourassumption is that youve got it all figured out,and you decide that youve lived the struggle thatyou now want to protect them from--what you dois perpetuate an activation of the struggle.

Wanting to protect them activates the struggle.

So its like feeding them with one hand, andtaking the food away with the other. Its likesaying to them, Welcome to this world that ishard in all of these ways--and let me activatewithin you all the troublesome things that willcertainly make this a hard world for you.

Why Is It So Hard?Often people will say, Well, Abraham, why are

we set up this way? Why does it have to be hard?If we are Pure Positive Energy, and then we areborn into these bodies, why are we so assured thatthere will be resistance surrounding us? Why doesit have to be? Why does there have to be so muchthat we worry about that gets our attention andsets up resistance within us, and keeps us frombeing in the place of allowing that we so muchwant? And we say, it is because the benefit of thecontrasting environment is millions of times morevaluable than it is detrimental.

If you did not have the ability to discerndifference, you could not prefer; and if you couldnot prefer, you could not vibrationally summon

Source--and if you could not vibrationallysummon Source, then we would all cease to be.The entire Universe is based upon our ability toconclude the new idea, which is the summoningforth of the new life into the new space.

And then you say, But wouldnt it have beenbetter if we could have had an environment whereit was easier to stay connected? And we say,there is no environment that is easier to beconnected than an environment in which you arefree to choose thought.

Find a thought that feels good, and practice it.

And you say, But its hard to choose a thoughtthat feels good, when theres so much around me

that feels bad. And we say, its only because youhavent practiced it that way. Its only becauseyouve been convinced that youve got to clamoraround the problem in order to find the solution.And there is truth in some of that. The clamoringaround the problem is what is giving birth to thedesire, you see. And so, its all an integral part ofall this.

Is Desire Not Painful?There are some who say that we should not

encourage you to have desire. And yet, we cannotstop you from having desire; the Universe isestablished to produce desire.

There are some who say that it is inappropriate tohave desire. And we say, those are only those whohave not figured out how to find vibrationalalignment with the desire, so the desire is alwayspainful. And we understand why you would notwant to have a desire that is painful--but the onlyreason it is painful is because you have not yet

learned how to allow.

So then you say, Well, how do we allow? Andwe say, you find a thought that feels good andpractice it until it becomes your proclivity. Andyou say Oh, thats far too simple. Theres got tobe something bigger than that. Theres got to besomething a lot more than just feeling good. Andwe say, there is nothing more important than thatyou feel good, because when you feel good,youve got control of your vibration. And whenyouve got control of your vibration, you are thedeliberate creator of your experience.

Why Must We Allow?So when you say, Why do we have to allow?We say, it is because you were born into anenvironment where there are choices; you wereborn into an environment where there is variety.In other words, if you lived in a household whereeverybody thought exactly the same way, andnobody had any contention about anything;everybody wanted everything exactly the same;you were all born to love pizza, and you were allborn to love milk, and you were all born to lovethe color yellow, and you were all born to lovehardwood floors instead of carpeted floors, andyou wereIn other words, if you were all bornwith these samenesses, you say Oh, we wouldget along so famously. We all sing the samesongs, and do the same things. And we say, youwould not be stimulated to a new idea. And a

continuing Life Force could not continue to bedrawn within you, because you need, we all need,an active calling. (Thats big!) We all need anactive calling. There has to be an activation of thatsummoning of Energy. And as long as theressummoning of Energy, then life continues. And itis our promise to you that life will alwayscontinue.

We all need an active calling.

Why Learn Allowing?And so, you say, Well, this activation of thisEnergy is a good thing. But my resistance to it isnot a good thing. Why do I have to learnallowing? And we say, you would not have tolearn allowing if you had not learned disallowing.And you say Thats my point exactly. Why was Iborn into an environment where I learneddisallowing? Why do I have to go back now andlearn how to allow? Shouldnt I just naturally

allow? And we say, because you wanted theenvironment of difference, and you needed to findyour bearing, and you needed to find your place,and you needed to decide what you want.

We promise you, you did not want to come intoan environment where you just said yes, yes, yes,yes, yes, yes, yes to all of it. You wanted to sayYes, no. Well, maybe. Well, what do I think?What do I conclude? What is my preference?Otherwise, your perspective has no value if youare not here to decide, to discern, to prefer.

So then you say, But I thought we were all one.And we say, we are all one, for the purpose of

coming up with a new idea. And you say Well,its painful, because now I have to learn how toallow all over again. And we say, youll be allright. You can use your Emotional GuidanceSystem to know.

If you dont get too far from where you are, itsalways easy to bring yourself back to center. Andeven if you do get far from where you are, its stilleasy to bring yourself back to center. It just takesdeciding that feeling good is worth something,and practicing, with real determination, to feelgood for no other reason than to feel good. And intime you show yourself that Allowing is not a bigissue.

Its Easy to AllowIts easy to allow. In fact, it is your dominant

proclivity. You would much rather love than notlove. You know how we know that? When youdont love, you feel miserable. You would muchrather praise than criticize. You know how weknow that? When you criticize you feel awful, andwhen you praise you feel wonderful. You wouldmuch rather know your success and know yourvalue than to feel that you do not have value. Youknow how we know? Because we feel your painwhen you choose the other. In other words, wethink that it must be easy to know the stove is

hot. In other words, that does not feel good to putyour hand on a hot stove. And we do notunderstand sometimes why it is so hard to takeyour hand off the stove.

Do I dare take my hand from the stove?

And you say, My mother had her hand on thestove, her mother had her hand on the stove, ourfamily puts its hand on the stove, thats what we

all do. (Fun!) The day I was born they put myhand on the stove. And we say, but now you getto decide how you like it. And you say, But itshard. Do I dare take my hand from the stove?And we say, risk it and try it. And you say Ah, itis sweet relief to take my hand from the stove.

These Are Your ChoicesBut look! My mother still has her hand on thestove. And my government still has its hand onthe stove. Theyve all got their hands on the stove.Who am I to find the relief of not putting my handon the stove? And we say, alright, put your handback on the stove if you want to. (Fun!) But


12/187

understand that you get to allow or not allow.These are your choices.

We are wanting you to understand its not hard toallow. In fact, the hardest thing of all is to learnpatterns of not allowing who you are: Its a lotharder for you to be confused than to be clearminded. Its a lot harder to be sick than it is well.Its a lot harder to not have enough money than tohave enough money. Its a lot harder to benegative than to be positive. Its a lot harder to bepessimistic than to be optimistic. The hard, hard,hard, hard thing is not allowing. Its easy to allow.You just have to give yourself permission to do itand practice it a little bit.

We have enjoyed this interaction immensely. Wethink you have it. We think that you know what to

do. And we think that together weve practicedvery well.

But you are on your own in this, and you like itthat way. You came into this environmentknowing that you would be an individualConsciousness. An individual Consciousness thatwould have your individual preferences, and thatanything that you, in your powerfulindividualness, identify as your desire--SourceEnergy will answer.

It is good to feel good!

And over the next few weeks, it is our expectationthat you will prove to yourself that you have theability to let it in. It is so much easier than youthink. Theres just one thing that you have toremember: It is good to feel good: It is good

It is Natural To Be Joyful

Clarity is your natural state of being. Healthy isyour natural state of being. Eager is your naturalstate of being. Loving is your natural state ofbeing. It is natural for you to have desire, and it isnatural for you to anticipate happy outcomes. Andit is natural for you to love. It is natural for you tosing. It is natural for you to play. It is natural foryou to skip. And it is natural for you to be joyful.

It is natural for you to know Well-being. It isnatural for you to expand. It is natural for you toquestion. It is natural for you to find interest. It isnatural for you to want more, and it is natural foryou to feel good. And anything else is resisting

the natural state of who you are. There is greatlove here for you. We are complete

An Emotional Journey From

Fear to Hope

From the Quarterly JournalJul/Aug/Sep 2005(pdf)From the recording G-10-16-04 Buy Recording

Also in GAW04 (ten tapes) Buy AlbumWashington, DC

Abraham: It is good to come together for thepurpose of co-creating, do you agree? You areknowing what you are wanting? An evolvingthing? Are you enjoying the expansion andclarification of your own desire?

Its the most important question that you want tobe able to sincerely answeryes to, becauseexpansion is what we are all about We cannot

cease expansion. The variety will always inspirewithin you the new idea, and that new idea willalways generate a vibration in youit alwayswill.

And so, as that new idea is vibrating within you,you could call itpreference, or a desire, or athought, but as it begins its own expansion, itsvibration causes within you something thatbelongs to you; its something that you must alignwith because if you dont, there will be discord in

your vibration.

And so, you just cant run around in your physicalworld and look here, there and everywheretaking no deliberate care to vibrate purposefullyand be assured that it will cause you perfectalignment with your Source Energy, because yourSource Energy has specific characteristics: YourSource Energy is non-resistant in nature. YourSource Energy doesnt push against anything.Your Source Energy is a high frequency, non-

resisted, Pure Positive Energy vibration. So, whenyou get crossways of your Source Energy, youfeel it, and that is what negative emotion is.

Negative emotion is your indicator that somehow

you got crossways of your Source Energy

vibration.

We want you to understand the vibrational contentof the thoughts that cause different feelings withinyou. And we want to show you how, with far lesseffort than it takes you to learn Quick Books onyour computer, you can remember your alignmentwith who-you-are, and utilize it on a day-to-day,moment-to-moment, basis, and bring yourselfconsistently into alignment with that steady

stream of Well-Being that is offering itself to youand through you in every moment of your life. Wewant you to let that be not only something thatyou are aware of, but the most important thingthat you are aware of. Because when you begin to

feel your way through your thoughts, when youbegin to realize that you have options about thethoughts that you activate and entertainthen youwill be the Deliberate Creator of your ownexperience.

As long as you think you dont have a choiceabout what you think because you dont have achoice about the circumstances that surround you,then you are like a cork bobbing on a raging sea,going wherever it bounces you. But when youunderstand that you have options, choices in everymoment, on every subject, then you begin to make

those choices because of the way those choicesfeel as you make them. And now, you are usingthe Guidance that comes forth from within you toguide you to the Well-Being; to the prosperity; tothe love of self and others; to the experience thatyou knew you would havethe experience that ispossible for allto the experience that really isonly experienced by those who come tounderstand theArt of Allowing.

So, it is good for you to reach for some thoughts

that give you some relief from the discord orresistance that you have presently going on, forwith each attempt at reaching for a thought thatfeels better, you release more resistance. And asyou release more resistance, you fill back up withwho-you-are, and your thriving resumes. And wewant to really emphasize the word "resumes,"because thriving is always the dominant part ofyour experience. But, we will acknowledge thatsome of you are going to have to croak before youresume thriving, (Fun!) because some of you have

pinched it off pretty good. Some of you havedeveloped some powerful habits of thought. Someof you have developed some strong enemies thatyou take great delight in every day pushing veryhard against. And some of you thrive on somesubjects and suffer on others. You have differentvibrational frequencies, depending upon the

subject at hand that is activated. But we want you

to know that you have access to Guidance that

will lead you always in the direction of your

thriving on allsubjects. But youve got to figure

out which direction is going towardyourobjective, and which direction is going away from

your objective. And before you can do that, youve

got to figure outwhat your objective is.

So, most of what youre doing is anEmotionalJourney. And if youre taking theEmotionalJourney that feels lovely as youre taking it, notonly do you enjoy the desert, and enjoy the

journey, and see the vistas, and have a wonderfulconversation and a very good time; but when youget there, you recognize it as that which you havebeen in alignment with all along. (That wasgood!)

It is our desire to show you how to take yourEmotional Journey. We want to show you that ifyou are in depression, and you find anger, thatyou are on the right path because there is lessresistance in anger than there was in depression.If

youre in fear and you find anger, that reliefthat

your anger gives youmeans youre headed in

the right direction because there is less resistance

in anger than there is in fear.And even though much of the world would tellyou that your anger is misplaced, (they would tellyou that you should not be angry) you want to sayto them, "You should be in here where I am! Andif you were, you would know that this anger isbetter than where I was." And then they might sayto you, "Yes, but you should have love in yourheart." And then we want you to say to them, "Iwould like to have love in my heart, but right

now, this anger is serving me fine, thank you.Because theres a big vibrational differencebetween anger and love, and I cant make that

jump right now just because you tell me I should.I made the jump from despair or fear to anger, so Iam on the right path. So, if youll just excuse me,I wouldnt get around me too much for a few daysbecause this anger is feeling pretty good. I mightmilk it. (Fun!) Im going to move as quickly as Ican into frustration and overwhelment. And fromthere, theres a possibility I could jump into

humor and hope, and maybe even love But fornow, Im doing the best I can."

You cant tell someone else the direction of theirjourney, because you dont know the details of thepre-paving that is calling them forth.

You cant understand the vibrational mix of

anyone but you. And when you try to guide

someone fromyour vantage point, you are

disallowing themtheir vantage point.

You do not have to control conditions, nor canyoubut you can feel better. And when you dofeel better, youve shiftedyourvibrational point

of attraction. And when youve shifted yourvibrational point of attractionyouve shiftedyour life.

So, are there problems in your future?Undoubtedly. But there are solutions right on theheels of them. You could close the gap betweenthe problem and the solution so tightly that youwould never even know there was a problem;your problems can be solved before theymanifestwhen you clean up your vibration.When you make it an Emotional Journey, youre

solving problems today that could be in your

future experience, and as you feel goodnow, you

never have to walk through the problemyou just

go from solution to solution, to solution.

It doesnt matter if youre looking past, present or

futureyoure doing it now. There are people onthe other side of the planet that are sleepingmaybe, but its still now. There are Non-physicalBeings like us who have no time, but its stillnow. In other words, now is now, is now, is now.And all of the Energy of all of the Planets, of allof the Universes, of all of the decades, of all of thecenturies, of all of the years, of all of thebeingness, of all of the consciousness, it isculminated into this now. It is a huge source andstream of knowledge and Energy and Well-Being,

and it is all available to you now, now, now.

So, the question that we want to put to you, is,what are you doing in your now? And you can tellby the way you feel: If youre angry, if yourefrustrated, if youre petty, if youre jealous; ifyoure pushing against, if youre blameful, ifyoure criticalyou are not in alignment with theresources of the Universe now.

So, as you make a decision:Nothing is more

important than that I feel good, what begins tohappen to you is, you begin to guide your thought,your every word, and your action. You guide yourmemory, you dont say, "This is how I grew upand therefore I have to deal with it and dig it upevery day and suffer over it." You say, Therewere things in my past that were unpleasant, but

there were things in my past that were pleasantI

will choose those that feel pleasant. Or, There are

things in my now that I have imagined into the

future that are awful, or there are things that I

imagine in the future that are wonderfulI will

focus upon those that are wonderful. But youcant jump vibrations all at once. So, stop beatingup on yourself.


16/187

We want you to be willing and happy to make thejumps incrementally; we want your journey to beabout the improvement about the way youfeel.

Theres relief everywhere you go, and theresreward for you everywhere you go.Do not equatehow you feel about something with how anybody

else feels, because theyre not in on your

equation. Youre not being compared to anyone.

But there is an absolute comparison between the

vibration of who-you-really-are, and the vibration

of your moment. And its your job, and only your

job, to bring harmony to that.

You have to take the Emotional Journey, first.And when you decide to take the EmotionalJourney on every subject thats important to you,youre going to discoverby tomorrowhow

much better you can feel about things that youhavent been feeling good about, and in themoment that you change the way you feel, eventhe slightest bit, everything related to you, relatedto that subject, will begin to shiftand there willbe evidence on your doorstep by the weekend.

We have enjoyed this interaction immensely.

An Introduction to the Art of

Allowing



Also in GASP00 (ten tapes) Buy AlbumAshland, OR

Weve been calling this gathering The Science ofDeliberate Creation, and surely it is that. But weare wanting to give it a new and emphatic subtitle.(a subtitle that you place even more importanceupon than the title) We are calling this workshopThe Art of Allowing.

Because when you discover how to achieve

vibrational harmony with your Source and withyour desire, then you are in the vibrational state ofallowing the things that you want. And its not adifficult thing to do once you understand the wayyour Guidance System works, and that Law ofAttraction is always consistent. Law of Attractionsaysthat which is like unto itself is drawn. Andeverything is managed or organized by Law ofAttraction. Law of Attraction is gloriously,blessedly, lovingly consistent. It never playsfavorites. It never behaves differently for one than

another. It is always what it is. Its like the law ofgravity--you can count on it.

Your Emotions are Your Guidance SystemYour emotions tell you everything that you needto know about your state of allowing or of notallowing. In other words, when you feel positiveemotion it means you are in vibrational harmonywith your Source, and you are allowing the goodthings that you are wanting to come to you. It isthat simple.

As You Are in a Place of Feeling Good, You arein a Place of Allowing Good.

When you feel that which you call positiveemotion, such as joy or appreciation, or a feelingof love or well-being those feelings that makeyour heart sing, those exhilarating feelings, thosefeelings, whether it ranges from contentment topassion, those feelings that you would call goodfeelings, those feelings that you would wish for allpeople that you love, (and if you are very wiseyou would wish them for all people that you dont

even know and maybe not love) as you are in thatplace of feeling goodyou are in the place ofallowing. You are in the place of allowing what?Allowing Source Energy. Allowing connectionwith who you are. Allowing wellness. Allowingclarity. Allowing abundance of all things desired.When you feel negative emotion, such as anger orfear or frustration or rage, even anxiety, thosefeelings of depression when you feel that whichyou call negative emotion, what that alwaysmeans is, for some reason, right now, you are notin the state of allowing. Allowing what? AllowingSource Energy, allowing clarity, allowing all thatis good. You are, instead, in the state of resisting.You are in a vibrational state where, for whateverreason, you have found some reason to focus in away that disallows the Pure, Positive Energy, theSource Energy, the Energy that creates worlds

from flowing to you and through you in the waythat youve intended it.

You Live in a Sea of Well-Being

What a magnificent Guidance System, youremotions. Not something that has to be translatedby another. Not something that has to be writtenin a book and studied for years to be understood.

It is right there within you in the moment.

Why Arent More Using Their Guidance System?So why arent more people utilizing theirGuidance System to hold themselves more oftenin a state of allowing the things that they want?Because you have become accustomed to thefeeling of resistance, so much so that yourGuidance System is sort of numb. It feels normalfor many of you to feel a little ornery, or a littleaggravated. In other words, you have become so

accustomed to the feeling of resistance that youdont understand the Guidance System when it isthere within you.

And because most of you have not been madeaware of the process of Energy flowing, and howit feels as it flows through you, most of you havelost your place in your Creative Universe in termsof flowing Energy. You have become those,almost without exception, human beings who arecharting the results of how you and others haveflowed Energy. You have become post Energystudiers. You are looking at the manifestation,which is the result of how the Energy has been


18/187

flowed, instead of being aware of how youreflowing in the moment.

Your Power is All In The NowThe only thing that matters is how youre flowingin the moment. Right now is where all of yourpower is. Right now you are either open andallowing your Life Force to flow or notand youcan tell by the way you feel whether you areallowing or not.

You are receivers of Well-being in extraordinaryfashion. You live in a sea, or an arena, of grace.Well-being is the sea that surrounds you. Butsometimes, without meaning to, you can getfocused upon a piece of something that somebodyhas manifested in their art of resistance, and as

you focus upon it, and as you achieve vibrationalharmony with it, you include it in your vibration,as well, and now you, too, are practicingresistance. How is that so? Because everything isabout attraction.

Your Attention To It Includes ItWhen you look at something that you want andyou give your attention to itby your attention toit you include it in your vibration. As you say yes

to it, you include this thing that you want in yourvibration. But when you see something that youdo not want, and you shout no at itby yourattention to it you include it in your vibration. Inthis Vibrational Universe, there is no such thing asno. Everything is yes. So when you see somethingwanted, it is yes. When you see something notwanted, it is yes.

You Know What is Wanted By seeing What Isnt

It is by your very objective nature, as you weighthe pros and the cons and the pluses and theminuses, that you keep including things that youdont want in your experience. But Abraham,isnt that a logical thing? I thought you said thatIm here to examine the content of the Universe,and that out of this sea of contrast will be bornrockets of desire? So how can I help but see thosethings not wanted? Thats right. You have to beable to see things not wanted. How would youknow what is wanted without your awareness ofwhat is not wanted?

Every Stick Has Two Opposite EndsEvery subject is two subjects. Its like a stick withtwo ends on it. On one end is what is wanted andon the other end is that which is not wanted. Sowhen you pick up the stick that says wellness,youre also picking up the stick that says lack ofwellness. When you pick up the stick that saysabundance, youre also picking up the stick thatsays lack of abundance. Every possibility has twoends. So how do I be in the place of allowing,when I pick up the stick that says abundance?How do I keep from picking up the other end of itthat says, not enough? And we say, thats whereyour Guidance System comes in. You can tell bythe way you feel whether your propensity forvibration on a topic is one of resistance or one ofallowing.

When you pick up the stick that says abundance,do you feel confident? Do you feel free? Do youfeel glorious? Do you feel exhilarated? Or whenyou pick up the stick that says money, do you feelrestriction? Do you feel shortage? Do you feelworried? Do you feel fear? Do you feel anger?What is the feeling that you hold when youactivate the subject of dollars? Or of wellness, orof any subject?

Are You Selfish Enough To Feel Good?

Nothing Matters More than that I Feel Good

With much less effort than you have ever thoughtbefore, you can learn to bring yourself intovibrational harmony with Well-being at all times.But theres one thing that you have to decidebefore any of it will begin to make sense, orbefore anything that we are going to teach you

here today will be able to be applied by you: Youmust be selfish enough that you are willing to feelgood. You have to reach the place where you say,Nothing matters more to me than that I feelgood. Because until you are willing to activelywork at feeling good, youre not going to knowwhen you dont. Until you deliberately reach forthe conscious feeling of the higher vibration, youwont be able to recognize the lower vibration.

You and the Cork are Naturally BuoyantImagine a cork bobbing up here on the surface ofthe water. On the surface of the water is whereyour natural vibration is: high, fast, pure. It allmeans the same. High, because theres no


19/187

resistance, fast, because theres no resistance,pure, because theres no resistance. Thats whoyou naturally are. Now take hold of that cork andhold it under the water. Thats what negativeemotion is. But, as soon as you let go of the cork,it floats right back to the surface.

And so, were not here to teach you to raise yourvibration, because your vibration is naturallyraised. Were here to help distract you from thelower vibration. Jesus said, turn the other cheek,and thats exactly what he was talking about. Turnyour attention from what holds your vibration in alower place, and your vibration will naturallyraise.

Meditation, the Practice of Allowing Well-Being

Many teachers, we are among them, teachmeditation, because meditation, when you achieveit effectively, means you distract yourself fromthe physical stuff. Its like a withdrawal ofconsciousness when you are still awake. Whenyou are asleep you withdraw consciousness too.But when you slumber and withdrawconsciousness, your consciousness is notconsciously aware of what it feels like to be inthat higher vibration. But when you are awake andin a state of meditation, now you are consciously

aware of what it feels like to be in that highervibration. Which means, you will be more awarewhen your vibration dips.

Use Meditation as a Process to Allow Connectionto Source Energy

Sometimes people say, Abraham, is it normal forall hell to break loose in someones life when they

begin the meditation process? And we say, yes,because what happens is you are bringing yourselfto a place of heightened sensitivity, so thatformerly achieved patterns of lower vibration areless comfortable to you.There are other ways than meditation:Appreciation, a rampage of appreciation raisesvibration. Listening to music that makes yourheart sing raises vibration. Petting your cat raisesvibration, or sitting and watching the river goby Often you are in your highest states ofconnection to Source Energy while you aredriving. It is the reason that there are fewer trafficaccidents, because you are, as a massconsciousness, often more connected when you

are driving. Something about the rhythm of theroad, or the lack of something to focus upon.

Here is the process of meditation that if we werein your physical places we would utilize: Everyday for 10 or 15 minutes, and not for much morethan that, we would sit quietly by ourselvessomewhere. Maybe under a tree, maybe in ourcar, maybe in the bathroom, someplace where wewould not be interrupted.

We would do our best to shut down our physicalsenses. In other words, we would draw thecurtains if it is bright. We would close our eyes.We would put ourselves in a place where there isnot much sound. We really would not even playmusic. Some people play music, but even that canbe distracting in nature. Something like the

ticking of a clock, or the dripping of a faucet, orthe trickling of a waterfall, something of thatnature can be very soothing. And some music fallsinto that same category. But it must be somethingthat does not stimulate thought.

And we would focus inward, even on ourbreathing. We would be consciously aware of airin, and we would be consciously aware of air out.We would concentrate on long breaths in, and wewould concentrate on long breaths out. We would

breathe air in, and when we thought it was all ourlungs would hold, we would bring still more in.And when we think it is still all our lungs couldhold we would breathe more air in. And then, at aplace of full expansion of lungs, we would take along, slow, delicious time to let the air out. Andour intention would be nothing more than being inthis moment, and being consciously aware ofbreathing. We would let it be our fullestresponsibility. Not fixing breakfast, not combinghair, not wondering how someone is doing, not

thinking about yesterday, not worrying abouttomorrow, not focusing on anything in thismoment except air in, and air out.

Now, during this process, within 2 or 3 days ofdoing it, youre going to begin to feel adetachment from your physical experience. Avery common thing that you will feel is a sort ofnumbing sensation. Some describe that theycannot tell their toe from their nose. Some, if theireyes are closed, and we recommend that, maybegin to see movement of light around under theireyelids, or even flashes of color.


20/187

There is no right or wrong in this process ofmeditation. There is nothing that you should bereaching for. This is a state of allowing. This is astate where, for just a few moments, you stoprunning the show. You stop trying to makeanything happen. This is your time of allowing.This is your time when you are saying unto yourmaker, unto your Source Energy, unto your InnerBeing, unto your God whatever youre wantingto call it, this is your time of saying, Here I be, ina state of allowing. And what am I allowing? Imallowing Source Energy to flow purely throughme.

15 minutes a day of that effort will change yourlife. Because it will put you in the state ofallowing the Energy that is natural to you to flow.Youll feel better in the moment. Youll feel more

energized when you come out of it.You may spend 14 minutes before you achieveany state of detachment. You might not ever beconsciously aware that youve achieved any stateof detachment. It doesnt matter, you are makingenormous progress as you allow yourself to be.

Ask and it is given. Not, ask and get worthyIt is Ask and it is given. Ask and Allow

A big benefit that youll notice, right away, is thatthings that youve been wanting will beginshowing up. Now, why is this? Abraham, I didntsit and intend. I didnt sit and set goals. I didnt sitand clarify what I want. I didnt tell the Universewhat I wanted. How come 15 minutes of justbeing will set those kinds of things in motion?Because it has always been, ask and it is given. Ithas never been ask and do something right and it

is given. It has never been ask and get worthy.It is ask and allow. Ask and allow.And so, every day, youve been asking. Youvebeen launching all kinds of intentions. You cannotlive in your physical body, you cannot be part ofthis physical environment without endless desiresbeing born within you. And as these desires arebeing born within you, the Universe is answeringthem. And now, because of your 15 minutes ofallowing, whether you were petting the cat, orpracticing your breathing, whether you werelistening to a waterfall or listening to happymusic, or whether you were on a rampage ofappreciation what happened, for that time ofallowing, is, you set up within your vibrational

auric field a vibration that, for the time, was not inthe state of resisting the things that youve beenasking for. And progress is made in that time.

Bring Your Guidance System Alive AgainWell, Abraham, if Ive been really negative for50 years, is it going to take me 50 years to turn itaround? 15 minutes ought to do it. In 15minutes I can undo all of the disallowing that Ivelearned to do? In 15 minutes you can allow, youdont have to undo anything. Well, what if Ivereally developed habits of negativity? Is 15minutes going to change that? Probably not. Butthe next time you go to one of those negativethoughts, youre going to be more aware of it.Your Guidance System is going to say, Hey!Youre going to feel your state of resistance in a

keener way. Your Guidance System is going to bebrought alive again so that you will be aware,probably for the first time in your life, of whatyoure doing with Energy.

Everything that happens to you is created by theEnergy you are Summoning and Allowing (ornot).

And that means everything. What youre doingwith Energy is what you do. You do everythingwith Energy. You are Energy flowing beings.Everything that happens to you and everythingthat happens to everyone you know, happensbecause of the Energy that you are summoningand allowing, or not allowing. Everything is aboutthat relationship with Energy. Everyone you knowwho is having every experience that you know ishaving it because of the focused desire that theirlife has brought to them, and the state of allowing

or resistance that they are in at any moment.

You Could Release any Deadly Disease, NowYou could have every deadly disease known toman, and some they havent even figured out yet,you could have them all in your body right nowand tomorrow they could all be gone, if from oneday to the next you learned how to allow theEnergy to flow. We really are not encouragingthose kinds of quantum leaps, they are a littleuncomfortable. What we really are encouraging isevery day being selfish enough to say: Nothing ismore important than that I feel good. And Imgoing to find ways today. Im going to begin myday by meditating and bringing myself into

Are Economic Business Slumps

Natural Phenomena?

From the Quarterly JournalJan/Feb/Mar

2002(pdf)

Guest: Is there such a thing as an economic cycle?Is there a natural law to economics, like summeris summer, and fall is fall

Abraham: Your economics are, in terms of yourindividual success, your exposure to contrastwhich gives you your idea of desire, and thenyour success has to do with your alignment. So,the alignment of your own Energy is the onlything that causes anything to affect you. Ofcourse, your Energy is affected by what you think

about other things. And so, your economy is theconsensus of the mass consciousness thought,because, as you have become a global world, andas you are all tied into the same mediainformation, you can simultaneously beaffectedand therefore mass consciousness isaffectedtherefore your economic conditions aremore worldwide experiences.

Economic declines are always false, always man-made, never necessary, and they always serve

some extremely well.

These are rip roaring times. This is the leadingedge of thought. There is not a reason for thereever to be a decline. And the declines are alwaysfalse. Always man-made. Never necessary. Andthey always serve some extremely well.

As we watch your television and we see, throughEsthers eyes, the newscasts, we notice that

although the good news of your planet is huge inproportion to the bad newsthe bad news is whatis amplified and given to you.

What the media is showing you, is the bleakestpicture, in order to get your attention, because thatsells newspapers or television programs, orwhatever. And even if they are all doing it, it doesnot need to affect you. But, it usually does affectyou. And as it affects you, then there is a greaterripple effect.

How could you go through eight years of onepresidential administration, having economicbooming times, and then days into a new

administration, have economic disaster? It isbecause a handful of people began saying ahandful of things that a few billion listened to.And so, it affected a few billion vibrations, andnow youre having the ripple effect of all of that.It is a powerful example of the power of mind.

There are popular trends and there are unpopulartrends. And positive attitude has, as long asyouve been in your physical body, not been avery popular trend. It doesnt sell newspapers. Itdoesnt sell television programs. (It doesnt sellprotection.) If you are in a position that you arewanting to soothe peoples troubles, then isnt anaggravation of their troubles beneficial to you?Thats sort of what is at the heart of all of that.

You are having glorious economic times, and

there is not a reason for it to be otherwise for youindividually.

You are having glorious economic times. Andthere is not a reason for it to be otherwise for youas individuals, or you collectively. But dont letwhat they are doing, collectively, affect youindividually. It need not. Begin making statementsthat always keep you in the receiving mode: Imnot affected by whats happening outside of me.

Im only affected by the alignment of Energybetween my desires. Im actually benefiting bywhats taking place here, because Im giving morethought to what I am really wanting. I am finetuning my desires in a more powerful way. Impulling more Energy through me than I ever havebefore. And Im more deliberately payingattention to when Im in the receiving mode thanwhen I am not.

I anticipate that I will thrive even more during

these economic times. These are boom times forme. Im clearer about what I am knowing. Im ina much better place this time than at any othertime. All is really well here, and the Law ofAttraction will sort everything out, and we are alldoing extremely well.

When you hear others that are expressingotherwise, sometimes it is to your advantage tostop, just for a brief moment, and ask: what istheir reason for perpetuating this? In many cases,they havent thought it through. But, sometimesthe answer will be, it is to their economicadvantage to do so. And as you begin toacknowledge how many people are using this to


23/187

their economic advantageyou wont worryabout the economy any more.

Economics has always been about supply anddemand. So if you are the diamond dealer andpeople are digging diamonds up in their backyard, you might want to go find something morerare, like a chunk of coal, or something like that.

There is no shortage. We know that there is noshortage, because we know that when you ask, theUniverse has the ability to yield. There cannot bea shortage. All there can be is an individual or awhole bunch of individuals cutting themselves offfrom the supply of Well-beingby finding onething or another to be upset about.

It does not matter what games anybody else is

playing. You have the ability to stand in a place ofprosperityno matter what.

Remember, there are the three points You ask,the Universe yields, and you just must be in thereceiving mode. It does not matter what gamesanybody else is playing. You have the ability tostand in a place of prosperityno matter what.And so, is there ever, really any shortage? Thereis never ever, ever, ever, ever any shortage! It is

all something that is mans making. Sometimesdeliberate, sometimes indeliberate. But it is neverreality. It is only a perception of reality.

Life is good, let it be. It is our powerful wantingthat you let yourself receive half the benefit thatwe all receive in our interaction through you. Itstime for you to begin letting it in.

There is great love here for you.

Are You As Selfish As Your

Are you aware that whatever you are giving yourattention to, is really focusing You? You areSource. You are Nonphysical Energy. You aremostly Vibration, but as you are expressingthrough these physical bodies, its easy to forgetwho you really are, because, as you stand in yourbodies, living the results, or manifestations, of allof that focus, you tend to get wrapped up in the

end product of the Vibration, rather than beingaware of your being, in the moment of youroffering the Vibration.

So, physical human life sometimes is not as sweetand delicious as it could be, when you, instead ofbeing aware of your in-the-moment vibration, andtherefore your in-the-moment Connection to theSource, and therefore your in-the-momentcreation of your experience, you sometimes spendmore time evaluating what has been created, than

you do being in the moment of creation.

As you stand in your now and you look out intoworld events, or even those events that are upclose to you, and you see unwanted things, thereis this tendency to let whatever it is that you areseeing be more important than it ever needs to be--because everything is changing constantly inresponse to the Vibration that you are emitting.

It would be sort of like setting your radio dial on

one station and then complaining about whatyoure hearing, when there are so many otherchoices that you could tune into. Its likesometimes you have it stuck on one station whichyou really dont like very much, but then, you justkeep commenting to one another how unpleasantthat one station is.

Anything thats happening in your experience,whether its a physical condition, even one of adiagnosed illness that is dramatic and scary, or,financial trouble even if it is looming very largeand very big, or, a relationship, unsteadiness ordiscomfort, even if it is strong, we want you torealize that those things are only happening to you

because youre stuck on a station that you couldchange so easily if you just would look at it in thatway.

Select what you give your attention to.

We want to assist you in feeling, more, yourpowerful, in-this-moment, opportunity to selectwhat you give your attention to, in order to adjustyour own vibration. And when you select whatyou are giving your attention to, in order to adjustyour own vibration, then, you affect either yourallowance or your disallowance, either yourallowance or your resistance, either your good-feeling or your bad-feeling--either your positiveemotions or your negative emotions. Its all thesame thing!

You are able to adjust your Connection with yourSource, which is everything. When you are fullyallowing your Connection with your Source, youare radiant; you are clear-minded; you are joyful;you feel good in the moment; youre usuallysmiling; your heart is swelling; you feelappreciation; you feel love; you feel fantastic; youare in love with life. Its like that first day ofvacation feeling all the time. In other words, itsthat feeling of awakening and feeling free, and

knowing that all is well, and feeling adventurousand eager about the way your life unfolds. Thatswhat Connection to your Source feels like.

And we say, folks, youve just got to startfocusing, because you cannot control theconditions of your environment. And you cannotfeel good when you look at conditions that do notplease you. And the reason you dont feel goodwhen you look at conditions that dont please you,is because you are choosing to look at something

that your Source does not join you in.

Jerry and Esther were saying goodbye to LC,(Lovable Cat) and Esther said, Goodbye, LC,were going to be gone a really long time. AndLC looked at Esther and said, I dont care. AndEsther said, But LC, you are going to miss mysweet face. Im not going to be petting you everyday. Im not going to be looking out for you. Imgoing to be gone a really long time. And LCsaid, So long. Goodbye. Ill be fine. In fact, Iwont even think about you while youre gone.And something within Esther, while she adoresthis little cat, really would feel better if LC wouldmiss her a little, because, isnt suffering in the


25/187

absence of someone you love, proof of love? But,were really wanting to help you to feel theabsurdity of that, even though its rampant in yoursociety.

Your cat will do what is best for it.

Were wanting you to want so much for your ownpersonal joy, that you can be as selfish as yourcat. Your cat, who may focus upon you in themoment, or may not, but we promise you, yourcat will do whatever is best for it. And wherehumans got the idea that their own individual,personal suffering was in any way good foranybody else, defies all Laws of all Universes thatwe have ever encountered. Feeling good is good,and is your indication of your full Connection

with who You are. So, were wanting to help youto remember, to reorient you, to, almost to shockyou into, the awareness that every Consciousness,which includes your full human form, and eventhe cells in your body--every Consciousness is,and must continue to be, selfishly oriented.Because, unless you are reaching for what isindividually best for self, you cannot stayconnected to Source. And the Whole, that is Well-Being based, cannot continue to be.

Your freedom will truly come to you when youlearn to exercise the power of your own focus.And we have never met anyone who couldexercise the power of their own focus, who didntfirst decide, I really, really, really want to feelgood. Nothing is more important than that I feelgood. Everything other than that is irrelevant. Iam going to focus upon that which feels good.As you begin to let feeling good be your dominantquest, everything in your environment begins totake shape to that--because your environment is

coming in response to your thoughts.

Do you get that? Your environment comes inresponse to your thoughts. So often, humans playit the other way around. Their thoughts come inresponse to their environment. Thats why yourequite often wanting to control your environment.You say, Lets get the bad stuff out, and the goodstuff in. Lets vote it out. Lets bomb it out. Letsboycott it out. Lets penalize it out. Lets findsome ways of punishing enough that the bad stuffstays away. You cant punish enough that thebad stuff stays away. Youre wanting to adjustyour vibration, so that you become a Vibrational

Match to that which you, personally, haveidentified as that which is good.

Whenever you look out into your world and seethings that are wanted, we know how good thatfeels. And we can understand how you wouldwant to promote those good things. And thenwhen you look out into your world and you seethings not wanted, we can understand how youwould not want to promote those bad things. Butwhat we are saying to you here is--the promotion,every bit of it, happens by your attention to it.

There are those who say, If we do not give ourattention to unwanted things, then the unwantedthings will overtake us. And we say, when yougive your attention to unwanted things--moreunwanted things will come.

The basis of your life is freedom; you are so free,you can choose to direct your thought anywhere.Joy is your quest; feeling good is what mattersmost; and, of course, your expansion, or growth,is the natural result of your being focused.

So, as we are moving forward here, realizing thatall things are possible, whats the best utilizationof this time together?

Lets look for the path of most allowance.

Were going to look for Paths of Most Allowance;we may call it the Path of Least Resistance,because, whether it is the Path of Most Allowanceor the Path of Least Resistance, its the samething. Its the path that allows; its the thoughtpath, the words, the imagery, the picture, thememory, the projection of thought, the processes,the tools, the tricks.

Esther was telling Jerry that one of the strongestfeelings of highs that she has ever felt was whenshe was pulling the monster bus into the RV resortin Chula Vista, and she had that feeling ofanticipation of getting onto their parking space,and taking their walks on the bay, and feeling theocean air in their lungs, and watching the sunsets.In other words, there was that moment: she pulledthrough the gate, and pulled the big parking airbrakes that go pssssst! when she does it, and itwas sort of like announcing to the world, Herewe are. And it was a high that was almostindescribable.


26/187

So then, as Esther was trying to regurgitate thatfeeling, she discovered that when she thinks onlyabout the monster bus being parked there, thatalthough she gets a little hit from it, it wasnt verymuch. But, she discovered that if she would startat about the time when they reached El Paso, andthink in terms of the delicious meal that they hadat La Posta in Mesilla, and then drive across thedesert and notice the sunset, and then park at thatplace that is such a beautiful place out in theArizona desert and take her walk, and then getback on the freeway and drive through the openfreeways with hardly any traffic, and then settingthe cruise control on about 87, and feeling thepower of the monster bus as it sailed across thedesert. And then stopping at a rest stop and havinga picnic with Jerry, and then anticipating wherethey were going. And then, when pulling into

Chula Vista, oh boy, did she ever get there!In other words, just by wanting to milk some

joyful experience for the purpose of feeling goodnow, Esther has discovered that that is one thatshe can use over, and over, and over, and overagain. Very often, she goes back to their Center inTexas where a stream has been man-made, but itlooks very, very real. In fact, people who see itdont know that it has not always been there. AndEsther sits on a bridge, that is made of a big rock,

with her feet not quite dangling in the water, butclose to it. And as she sits there, Lovable Catcomes up from a rock ledge and decides to jumpover to another rock, and literally flies through theair over her head in order to get there. And whenEsther remembers that moment in time, sheconnects to Source Energy in a very powerfulway. And then, Lovable Cat runs up the tree andstops long enough to say, Did you see that? Andthen runs down the tree and stops long enough tosay, Did you see that? And runs up the tree, and

stops long enough to say, Did you see that? inorder to demonstrate her powerful joy in themoment. And Esther cannot focus upon thatwithout using that as the moment in time toconnect to Source Energy.

Are most of my thoughts good-feeling thoughts?

All of you have these moments in time. Maybe itwas a day you met someone you loved, and youknew it, for the first time. Maybe it was the firstthing that they said to you that made you knowthat you really loved them. Maybe it was the firsttime you slept together. Maybe it was the first

time you ate out together. Maybe it was the firsttime you drove somewhere together. But all ofyou have those moments in time, that, every timeyou reflect on them, they take you to that high,good place.

And our question to you is, why not let as manymoments of your day, as possible, be in thinkingabout those things that take you to that high, goodplace? Because thats the only thing that you needto do to open your valve to allow the Universe todeliver to you, right now, all of the things thatyouve been asking for.

You dont have to explain anything to anyone.You dont have to justify anything, and in fact,you cannot. The best use of your time is to find amoment that is pleasing, and milk it for

everything that it is worth. And then, if we werestanding in your physical shoes, we would addthem together; we would pretend as if all thehappy things happened at the same time; wed addto it; wed make it up; we would float it into thefuture. In other words, we would just get onrampages of joyous mushing and mashing of thedeliciousness of our life experience.

Todays potential for joy is beyond anythinganyone has ever lived.

We would never stop talking about how good itis! We would never stop talking about how goodit is, because it is so very good. We have watchedall of the humans who have lived all of the lives,and we have never seen anything with thepotential of what you are standing on now. Thepotential for joy in this time/space reality isbeyond anything that anyone has ever lived. Andif we were standing in your physical shoes, we

would be using every excuse that we couldpossibly find to connect to the Source Energy.And in doing so, every fleeting little dream thatwe ever had would float into our experience likebutterflies and say, Here I am. Here I am. Here Iam. Here I am. Remember me? You dreamed mewhen you were 12. Remember me? You dreamedme when you were 18. Remember me? You askedfor me yesterday. Remember me? Remember me?Remember me?

Because every one of them remembers you. Everydesire that you have ever held has been encodedwith your Vibration, and has been making its wayto you. And you dont have to get them all at


27/187

once. You wouldnt want to get them all at once.They are strung out in a perfect array to give youa never-ending unfolding of perfection. You donteat all of your meals at the same time--youwouldnt want to.
