Abe on calibrating to feeling good - 2/24/24,
beginning of second half, 1:28:00
Q: Hi Abraham. Thank you for this opportunity to ask
questions virtually. I've been listening to you for a few years now, and have
really seen a shift in my mindset, in my life, and things that are coming into
my life that I've always dreamed of and always wanted. My question here lies in
my profession. This is my 16th year as a school teacher working in a title one
school. I adore my school. I adore the kids I’m privileged to work with. But I
don't know if you have any words of advice for us teachers and the burnout, and
the stress of our work. I take deep breaths, I do what I can. I try to manage
my thoughts. But there's a lot of burnout in the teaching profession and I
really fear for the future of education. And I don't know if there's anything
that you can speak to, to help all of us teachers out here that love it still,
but are really struggling with the profession. Thank you.
A: It's helpful to acknowledge that in every particle of the universe there is
wanted and lack of it. And so you just have to decide that you have the ability
to calibrate to the best of where you are.
And sometimes we know that sounds to you like what we're asking you to do is
just put up and shut up, or just make the best of it anyway.
What it is about is the more you look for the positive aspects, the more that's
what your bag of marbles, your point of attraction, is about. The bag of
marbles - we haven't talked about it in this broadcast, but it's an analogy…?
You carry your bag of marbles around and in this bag
is every thought you've ever thought. But the only marbles that matter that are
in this bag are the active ones, the active thoughts. And the active thoughts
are the practiced thoughts.
So, as there are more things for more people to
complain about and more people are complaining, then your point of attraction
just causes a match, a rendezvous, a point in time. You become a cooperative
component to wanted and unwanted. It depends upon what you’re focused upon. A
cooperative component is one who is a vibrational match.
So don't ever ask things to be as they used to be or
better than they are. Don't push against the parts you don't like.
Instead, savor the parts you do
like. And watch how your point of attraction changes. We're not kidding you.
Two people with different points of attraction going on, could walk down the
same street at the same time and have two very different experiences. The
people who meet you eye to eye, the things that you hear, the things you
notice. Everything is affected by your point of attraction. And nothing is
outside of your point of attraction.
Certainly, there are better situations than others. We're not saying you're
making it up. And certainly, you want things to be as good as they can be.
We're not asking you to tolerate.
What
we're asking you to do is just practice feeling as good as you can feel, and
then watch how the things around you change to match the good feeling that
you've been able to accomplish because you want to.

Abe on thinking
around the pain – 2/24/24. 1:33:00
Q: Esther, Jerry, Janet. I’m a long time listener and
lover of your teachings. I recently was in a bad accident and I am in a lot of
pain. And I'm finding it really hard to raise my vibration from despair and
fear up to the higher levels. I was wondering if you had any extra help or
maybe, I know, just help me somehow, please. Thank you.
A: Well, it isn't fun to not feel good. We know that for sure. And you're
talking about something that is frequent, chronic. Hard to think past it or
think around it, we know. But you can. You really can.
You
can be in pain and be feeling love at the same time.?And so, it's about focus. But we know
it's hard to hear. It's feeling outside the box. So let's call the box for now,
for this analogy, for your situation... The box is your body and it got beat
up. And it's hurting. And it's in the process of realigning. But it's hurting.
So the question that we're going to put to you in a very strong way is, can you
hurt and love at the same time? Now you might not be able to hurt and be
optimistic at the same time because that's too much the same stick. And it
challenges you too much. But you could hurt and enjoy a puppy. You could hurt
and find something humorous on another topic. So, we're asking you to try for a
little while to separate manifested...
Start again. We're asking you to know the difference between interpreting
vibration through sight, interpreting vibration through sound, interpreting
vibration through smell, through taste, and through feeling. So those are
physical senses by which you are interpreting vibration.
Now, we're asking you to think about
interpreting vibration through emotion. And we're asking you to put emotion
outside the box, and all the other five inside the box.
So you know how our friend was talking about imagination. And we noted that
that's outside the box. Now that person was sitting in a now reality. In a now
reality, in a space and time, with manifested things, but was imagining
something different.
So we're not exactly asking you to imagine feeling
better.?We're
asking you to do what he was doing - being outside the box while in physical
form.?We know that
you are getting a sense of what we're talking about. Just play with it. It will
get better and better.
The more you are able to find an
emotion that doesn't match the pain, the more frequently you will practice a
vibration that will allow the healing. For real.
