two more 4/10 quotes on open-mindedness and feeling more


 

More from the workshop thanks to Marsha!

Open-mindedness - 4/10/24, 1:50:57

Q: Hello, Esther and Abraham and everyone. Wow, there was so much to think about from the broadcast last week. And I loved how you talked about our vibrational bag of marbles as our belief system, and our opinion system, and our expectation system. And that really got my wheels turning and it led me to make a determination for more of my segments each day, to be determined to be more open-minded. And as a result of deciding to try to be more open-minded, I had a number of really pleasant surprises and experiences. And I had a lot of fun with that. And it led me to wonder about… a couple years ago I asked if my inner being was more objective. And I'm also wondering about my inner being and open-mindedness. Thank you.

A: We like that you have introduced into this conversation the word open-mindedness. We said outside the box, meaning the same thing, but open-mindedness… Open to what??

Open to your inner mind. Open to your desires. Not just open to what has already happened, or open to your beliefs, or open to what you're observing, but open to what you choose to focus upon.?It's like opening beyond observation of what is.

It's all right to observe what is if you care about the way you feel, so you're open to focusing with more specificity, with more focus, with more deliberate intent. Open-mindedness.

Someone sent a note to us. You’re talking about the bag of marbles. This person is asking, is there a way to leave that bag somewhere and start with an empty bag? And you might call that open-mindedness.

In other words, thinking beyond what I've already thought, open to the new, is what people often mean when they think about open-mindedness. Seeing it in a way I’ve not seen it before.

We come back to that think and feel, think and feel, think and feel. And we come back to, when my - speaking from your point of view - when my desire and my belief are in the same place, so there's no vibrational separation, then my desire becomes a manifestation. Then it is.

So, open-mindedness… When my desire is what I'm focused upon, and I'm not trying to weigh my desire against expectations or beliefs, because I've been focusing upon my desire just in this last segment, just in this last minute or two let's say.

And because I focused upon my desire singularly on that end of the stick, then the other end of the stick is rendered inactive. It's like emptying out your bag of marbles.

When you talk about what you want and why you want it, and you do it long enough, just a little over a minute - 68 seconds is enough - then it is like your bag of marbles is empty in the sense that there's no belief that's going to contradict you. And that, in fact, must surely be the best definition of open-mindedness. I've cleared the pathway for a thought beyond what I normally think.

Several of your comments today were leading to this accentuation of this. What-is is compelling. So much about it.
It's also limiting. It's also like gum you've chewed all the flavor out of. There it is. I've seen it before. I've come to expect it.
I'm in the box with it. That's not exactly closed-mindedness. But it's not open-mindedness either, is it?

So what are we talking about here? Well, I feel a little bored. Ah, now we're talking. Well, I feel a little discouraged. Now we're talking. In other words, now we're talking emotion. Now we're talking vibration. Now we're talking true comparison with something that really matters. Now we've got marbles to marbles, we've got my human perspective marbles in relationship to my inner being marbles.

And I want to be open to the way my inner being is looking at it. Because you know what? Your inner being never closes its mind to join you in a belief that isn't working for you. That's why you feel negative emotion.

You feel negative emotion because your inner being won't be closed-minded. You feel negative emotion because your inner being will not cease to look forward into new.

Good conversation. We are appreciating how you all keep leading it into a place of greater clarity.

Want to feel more - 4/10/24, 1:57:20

Q: Hi Esther, hi Abraham. Hi everyone. Last week's broadcast was incredible. So many questions were answered and it was just magnificent. Thank you so much.

I wanted to ask you about our physical senses and the ability to experience more. So I know that we have our typical physical senses and then we have our ability to feel our emotional senses.

But for example, if I'm looking at something beautiful, like a beautiful sunset. And just I’m in the moment, I'm appreciating and I'm basking and I'm full and I'm blended and my heart is open. And yet I still want more. I want to feel more of it. I want to experience more of it. I was just wondering if there's a way to further develop our senses so that we can experience more. Thank you.

A: Well?when you are in tune with your inner being because you care about the way you feel, and so you've practiced focusing and feeling, focusing and feeling, then what happens is you feel the way your inner being feels when your inner being is looking at what you're looking at. In other words, that's the way you can expand your ability to feel more deeply or more broadly, more expansively.

When you feel wonderful, you?are?feeling what your inner being feels.?And then there is anything from that wonderful all the way down to feeling terrible, as you might be focusing in ways that pinch you off from the way your inner being is focusing.

So now we're talking about a couple of different things here that are really for the same reason, but as a couple of different approaches.

You're asking how you can be in your box appreciating the things that you're accustomed to appreciating and doing it long enough that you are in such vibrational sink with your inner being, who is now focused right there with you, but from that broader point of view, feeling breadth and?depth in whatever the subject of your attention is that causes you to feel the expansion to see the breadth and depth of it in the way your inner being does.

So you can be more expansive inside the box, provided that you're looking at it in the way that your inner being is looking at it, or you can get out of the box and look in the direction that you've not looked before at things you've never contemplated before. So, what do both of those things have in common? You being in concert with your inner being.

Whether you are being a better selective sifter by selecting inside the box, looking around your room, around your environment, out at your sunset, into the eyes of your lover, at whatever's going on around you, into the conversation that you're having at dinner, whatever you're seeing in the movie or reading in the book. In other words, looking at whatever you're looking at through the eyes of source.

Or, being so neutral in your thought, absence of resistance, that you are called to the thought that your inner being is thinking outside the box. Humans call that imagination, or visualization.?



We call it joining vibrational forces with the larger part of you that has a much more expansive universe to explore.



So what we're saying is, you all can join us, and we promise a good ride and that you're going to feel great when you do it. Or you can focus inside your box by selectively sifting things that feel good to you, and inviting us in to whatever your object of attention is.



This is such a good conversation. We have not had this conversation before.
