Dear Trixi,

Thanks for the post. It is always great to get these reminders and they always
come at the right time. Of course, you knew that.

My love

Hi all, I thought that this was a powerful story of positive expectation at
work. At the bottom is a list of my expectations.

Great Expectations

Pete Rose, the famous baseball player, and I have never
met, but he taught me something so valuable that it changed
my life.
Pete was being interviewed in spring training the year
he was about to break Ty Cobb's all time hits record. One
reporter blurted out, "Pete, you only need 78 hits to break
the record. How many at-bats do you think you'll need to get
the 78 hits?"
Without hesitation, Pete just stared at the reporter
and very matter-of-factly said, "78." The reporter yelled
back, "Ah, come on Pete, you don't expect to get 78 hits in
78 at-bats do you?"
Mr. Rose calmly shared his philosophy with the throngs
of reporters who were anxiously awaiting his reply to this
seemingly boastful claim. "Every time I step up to the
plate, I expect to get a hit! If I don't expect to get a
hit, I have no right to step in the batter's box in the
first place!"
"If I go up hoping to get a hit," he continued, "then I
probably don't have a prayer to get a hit. It is a positive
expectation that has gotten me all of the hits in the first
place."
When I thought about Pete Rose's philosophy and how it
applied to everyday life, I felt a little embarrassed. As a
business person, I was hoping to make my sales quotas. As a
father, I was hoping to be a good dad. As a married man, I
was hoping to be a good husband.
The truth was that I was an adequate salesperson, I was
a not so bad father, and I was an okay husband. I
immediately decided that being okay was not enough! I wanted
to be a great salesperson, a great father and a great
husband. I changed my attitude to one of positive
expectation, and the results were amazing. I was fortunate
enough to win a few sales trips, I won Coach of the Year in
my son's baseball league and I share a loving relationship
with my wife, Karen, to whom I expect to be married for the
rest of my life! Thanks, Mr. Rose!

Your truths. The truth. THE TRUTH!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It never crossed my mind that it would be any different.

The key here was that I never doubted myself. The trick here is I have
all these wonderful things because I believed in myself.

It's your vibration, your dream, what you expect for yourself!

An Abe take on a few good quotes"

When a disciple came from a faraway country, the Master asked, "What are
you seeking?"

"Enlightenment." (Surrender to NP, Flowing PPE, Merging with IB and ATI)

"You have your own treasure house. (IB...the ability to experience ATI and

joy in every moment) Why do you search outside?"

"Where is my treasure house?"

"This seeking (desire/wanting) that has come upon you."

At that moment the disciple was Enlightened. Years later he would say to
his friends, "Open your own treasure house and enjoy your treasures."

Anthony de Mello, SJ


MORSEL: In all persons, all creatures, the Self (IB) is the innermost

essence...

Our real Self (IB) is not different from the ultimate Reality

Ireena,

Thank you for sharing...I like the lover part. Where are the

the right time.

Are you still on that abundance list? How is that?

Much love to you.

Hi, Trixi, I thought that your post was brilliant. I experienced the same
thing around wanting to be married and have kids and it all happened right
on schedule. It's just how I wanted it to be and it never crossed my mind
that it would be any different. I always just played around with it in my
mind because it felt good. Thanks for sharing.

Love,
Dianne

Dear Sweet Alana!

Do you expect a wonderful relationship? Do you think that you deserve a
great guy? I will tell you a story. When I was a little girl I would dream
and make up stories about this wonderful guy that I was going to marry. I
stayed up late at night and would think about all the wonderful things we do
and how we are, on and on. Whenever I wanted to feel good I would go to my
dream world and add on to my dream. Now those were days that I did not know
of ABE. All I knew is that it felt good. I also knew that I wanted to get
married between 22 and 24, have my first baby by 26, start my own business,
have three kids and live on a farm. Now what life do you think I am
living? The key here was that I never doubted myself. I met my husband of
of 15 years, right on target, and do you know that I love him more today
than when I first met him! I had my first baby at 26, have three wonderful
- beautiful children, own my own business and live on a farm!

The trick here is I have all these wonderful things because I believed in
myself. I never listened to others who said - oh you can't marry him (my
parents) - I told them that I loved him with all my heart and this was the
one. They changed their views because I was dead set on my way! Today they
love this man so very much. They honor him and speak very highly of him.
AND THEY USED TO HATE HIM! He was not good enough for their daughter! HA!

Then they all told me starting a business was hard and you had to have lots
of money behind you to do that. BULL SHIT! It's your vibration, your
dream, what you expect for yourself!

Thank you all for your upliftment, prayers and PPE!

Angel and I went to see Dr B. today...

The "Mrs" Dr B, who Angel loves the best was there, not her husband.
Waiting for feline leukemia and feline aids test results was the longest 10
minutes of my life. Earlier when we were waiting for them to come draw her
blood, Angel lay on stomach and chest with both paws on one of my
shoulders...actually she was more center so we were solar plexus to solar
plexus. I visualized Ang singing the meow mix song and dancing. The thought
of it created a vortex that I could feel. At that moment I knew all would be
well...

Angel and I sat in the waiting room and read an article on Nicole Kidman..she
discussed just enough Science of Mind to give me that Synchronicity feeling
which added to our peace. We felt your PPE...

The vet tech said..."I have good news"...and truly it was, it is.

So Angel got a shot of antibiotics, we will never use Advantage flea medicine
again and instead of sleeping in my closet, Angel is downstairs watching TV
with my mother and father...amazing :)

I worked last night 11pm to 730am, I was so grateful that the unit called and
asked me to work...giving to others...being there when the 20 week old fetus
transcended, and seeing the sparkle in the eyes of an 88 year old Alzheimer's
patient who told me she was 47 was exactly where I needed to be. Thank you
U, Thank you Light family.

Oh...when I told the "47" year old it was 1999...she laughed and said "Oh
well that is not what it is where we are"...I believe her :)

Love and gratitude to each one of you!

<< I'm very curious if anyone has

manifested or manifests within a short time situations, changes
in their lives, material things, etc. following the guidelines
given by Abraham? >>

I just love the opportunity to share all the wonderful things that have
happened to me since Abe. I really manifested so much before Abe, but
knowing how creation works is so much more fun than the hit or miss I
experienced before. Not understanding made it much more difficult to
identify the resistances and to soften them with new beliefs.

My latest manifestations are truly exquisite!!!

A little over a year ago I began in earnest to pump up my desire for a mate.
Like others, I'd had some difficult relationships, so I wanted to get more
clear-headed about what I wanted. When I KNEW exactly all that was
important, I began to take action. I put an ad on the internet. I got more
responses than I ever believed possible! I met some interesting men, and, in
the process, realized some things about myself. Like how I was always trying
to fit in with their wanting (a knee-jerk response).

Well, I took charge of my power, and felt like I was in charge of my destiny
by remembering that this relationship was for ME. A few months later, the
man I wanted turned out to be my second ex-husband, which completely
surprised, thrilled and delighted me. All that I'd wanted Ben to be, he
became, or, I realized he'd been all along.

A few months into our relationship, we began dreaming about moving to an area
where we could work at what we love to do more easily. Ben's a musician, I'm
an artist and writer. Ben's got an income we could live on, but we didn't
have the extra money needed to move. I just KNEW it would come and we set
the date to move.

Six months later, in time for our set date, through some miraculous events,
we had more than enough money to make the move easy and effortless.
Originally, I had $5,000 on my mind as adequate. I was amazed when my sister
wrote me a check for that exact amount after my great-aunt died. I wasn't
expecting anything from her. When the $5,000 didn't seem to be enough for
the move, more came through selling artwork. We had $18,000 when we were
ready to go.

Now, being here, my desire's been to focus on selling my book. I've been
editing it in preparation. I found out about some writing workshops and
submitted some of my book to one of them. I was accepted, but it turned out
not to be everything I wanted. Once I became clear about what I wanted in a
workshop -- to be able to network with agents and editors, as well as
learning more about my craft -- lo and behold!!! I noticed an ad for a
workshop here that fit everything I wanted perfectly. Not only that, but
they extended the early bird sign-up date, so that I was able to go at the
cheaper rate!!

I'm going in a little over two weeks, and, right now, I'm creating meeting
either an agent or editor who is enthusiastic and excited about my book. To
achieve that end, I'm creating a package that knocks my socks off, because I
know if I'm thrilled with what I write, everyone else will be, too. I'm
revving up that passion now, pulsing life blood through me, feeling the
anticipation of all I'm excited about, allowing myself to BE what I know I
can BE, so all that I want to happen will be the next logical step. In other
words, now I'm creating what I want to happen, through my imagination, so
that, when I take the action, it will all fall into place.

To be continued.................

I get this, and I enjoy it a lot. While not exactly ABE-related, it nevertheless provides me a weekly dose of inspiration which is usually very much in line with ABE-stuff. Thought I'd share it with y'all this morning. Check it out. Tommy Gordy is a Science of Mind minister, I believe. Anyway, I like him.

Dear Sweet Alana!

Do you expect a wonderful relationship? Do you think that you deserve a
great guy? I will tell you a story. When I was a little girl I would dream
and make up stories about this wonderful guy that I was going to marry. I
stayed up late at night and would think about all the wonderful things we do
and how we are, on and on. Whenever I wanted to feel good I would go to my

of 15 years, right on target, and do you know that I love him more today
than when I first met him! I had my first baby at 26, have three wonderful

The trick here is I have all these wonderful things because I believed in

love this man so very much. They honor him and speak very highly of him.
AND THEY USED TO HATE HIM! He was not good enough for their daughter! HA!

Then they all told me starting a business was hard and you had to have lots
of money behind you to do that. BULL SHIT! It's your vibration, your
dream, what you expect for yourself!

Oh and a couple of more things - while we are on this subject....

1) IT'S NEVER ABOUT THE SUBJECT! We think it is - BUT IT IS NOT! It's
about our vibrations (what we put out there) and how we ALLOW it back (are
we appreciating). A Cup of Coffee is just as easy to manifest as a million
dollars! Do you expect to have a cup of coffee every morning? AND DO YOU?
Do you expect to have a million dollars every day? AND DO YOU? And what do
you think when you are low on coffee? Oh I have to go buy some more coffee
or else I won't have any in the morning. Well you could just expect to have
coffee and say I will have coffee tomorrow, bring me coffee and forget about
it and you never know where that coffee would come from. Ya see it's all in
what we expect and believe.

2) Are you focused on good things? Are you using the help that is
available to you? Is your desire up there for what you want? You see, when
we really expect something it ALWAYS comes to us. There are many things
that I just expect. They are mine! I have claimed them as mine.

Think about how you eat every day - do you have to sit down and say to the
universe - ok where am I going to get food? How is my body going to
transfer food to energy? How will this all work? NO - you don't even think
about that stuff, usually. Well manifesting things is the same way. State
your intentions clearly and go about your business. It will come. If it is
general it will come in a general way. If you are very specific it will
come in a specific way.

LOOK AT YOUR LIFE! WHAT IS IN YOUR LIFE? This is how we manifest! Which
ones came easy to you? Which ones were hard? HOW DID YOU FEEL WITH THE
EASY ONES? HOW DID YOU FEEL WITH THE HARD ONES?

Do you expect a mate? A wonderful relationship? Do you see others in a
wonderful relationship and say - Yes that's for me!

3) ASK for help. It is always given! You can ask for ANYTHING - even help
with asking for HELP!

I love you all!

Good Morning Alana and ALL!

I too met you at the Silver Spring Abraham Workshop. We even sat at the
table together for lunch on Saturday. I was the crazy one laughing all
the time at the end. :) I do have fun!

So your question..........

I have (as you and we all have) Manifested EVERYTHING in my life.
Everything I see and experience I DID or I allowed. So I can look back
on my life and say ok how did I "feel" when that or this came about?

You see - every thought you have right now is your tomorrow. Connee
wrote something really good on that lately!

I sit every morning and evening and write out what I want or need for
tomorrow. Some of this comes from contrast (which is a good thing) and
then I know exactly what I want so I write it - then I put it away and
have fun in my NOW. Live in your NOW. What do you appreciate right
now? When you appreciate you literally open the doors to all that you
have told spirit you want.

When you accept thanks from someone else you open those doors.

You see, it is much more simple than we make it. Yes, I close the doors
sometimes but contrast is just here telling us where we are - just like
flying high and loving every minute of life.

So have fun, write, in Vision, appreciate and look back on your life and
say ok I get it - that's how I got this or that! You will find that it
is always a match. Just Trust that you are doing this correctly and
Trust in Spirit.

Well you have a wonderful fun filled day!

I AM THAT I AM, Trixi!

Dear Abe Friends,

I have a question for anyone who may be able to give me some good
advice. I have this strong desire for something special and
wonderful in my life. It is something I have desired since I was
a little girl. I know exactly what it is and I know exactly what
it feels like. I have launched many millions of rockets of
desire for this one thing. I have spent countless joy-filled
hours these past few years feeling it, writing it, visualizing
it, and creating it over and over and over again in my minds
eye. Until I met Abe, I spent many years worrying and doubting
and crying about it manifesting.

Over the last few years, since coming in contact with Abes
teachings, I have had powerful, wonderful dream manifestations of
it. When I wake up, I stay in the feeling place of it for hours,
not minutes!!! I will go along happily for weeks or months and
then I just cry because it is still not manifesting and I am left
curious and discouraged, wondering what is wrong. This seems to
be my pattern. I would like to believe in these processes. I
would like to know and to trust that my desire, which seems to
occur so easily for others, can also manifest for me.

I accept and agree that I create my own life with my own
vibrations. I know I can not be that ONE exception in all the
Universe to these processes. I ask these questions now as I am
feeling afraid to continue to visualize. I can hardly create it
in my minds eye any more without feeling longing and
discouragement. Perhaps some of you may have some advice??
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Trixi,

You have done it again -- struck some great nerves with you 1-2-3 approach to
creation. I thought Susan was the master of this ~ you rival her for top
billing. Thanks.

Patty

Juls,

Certainly the air conditioning in your car works -- you have selected for it
not to at this time to really see the contrast. You can get it going again by
changing your thougt, if you so choose. However, you are creating some great
writing and thoughts by experiencing the contrast ~ so whatever you choose is
perfect !

Patty

Juls,

Of course all those gifts of appreciation mad way for you to send oodles of
appreciation to the givers -- making them appreciate the energy they received
from your appreciation of their gifts - those creating the little ripple that
makes all the Universe respond with a little happiness, smile and joy. Thanks
for sharing -- I now am sending out a ripple of a little more love than
before for the love,appreciation and sharing that touched you!

Lots of love,

Patty

I did not take your questions wrong at all..
It was exactly what I needed...
Love to you, my friend
Nori

Thanks to Vilik for pointing me to this guy Christopher. He's got a site
called www.anunda.com, and also a list anunda@....

One of the things I get a really big kick out of is how this tremendous
awareness is creeping up on the planet...here it is, anunda-style...quite
abe-ilicious, imo...just like connee's science of mind!

Huggles round n round the tub,

NetPaul

=======================================================

Who is anunda

This is a question that has often been asked of me. Only this morning I was
asked "How do I find Anunda?" ... to which my reply was "Anunda has found
you"

When I first started out on my Spiritual Quest, I reacted to what people
were telling me I should believe, I reacted to words they were using, and
to the way I was told who and what I should believe .

Please bear with me as I go into some of the background . you may not yet
understand what I am getting at, but it will become clearer ... this I
promise you.

We often ask "How do I find God", "How do I find Jesus" ... the answer is
really quite simple ... we don't.

The ancient Chinese Tao puts it quite simply .

"From One came Two ... From Two came Three ... From Three came ten thousand
other things ."

The Bible contains the phrase ... "In the beginning was the word ."

Early on in my own personal journey I read the line ... "What you are
looking for you already are" .

So I asked the question "Why ."

And then I understood that my eye can see, but cannot see itself except by
looking at itself in a mirror ... and what it sees in the mirror is not the
eye that is looking, but a reflection, a reversal, the flip, the opposite
of that eye.

So if I am God, Jesus, anunda . then everything that I see is the mirror
image of the I that is looking. It is not the I am, but it is the mirror
image of that.

Now, going back to the words from the Tao, One has created Two (or duality)
in the need to see itself.

By not accepting I am, I have created a subject (I, the looker) and Object
(what I am looking at) ... now, both of these contain the original I but
the seeker forgot that and made all sorts of judgemental decisions about
not only the subject but also the object?

Confused? Ok, so was I . which part of I (you) is confused? ... where does
the confusion come from ...? Where do the reactions come from .?

So I remembered the principle of the Mirror. I decided to flip the question
.. and the answer.

If what I am looking for I already am, what is it that separates me from
the experience of being that? ... Who, what, where and why are the
questions that arise out of duality, of seeing subject as separate from
object?

But the answers of religion and spirituality brought reactions ... where
did those reactions come from?

If I returned to `God' there should be no reactions .... why was `God'
wrong? ... and the word `Love' ... well, that brought up more reactions
than I would care to mention at this point.

I had to remember `One' ... for myself I had to define or find a word that
aroused within me no feelings, no reactions, a word that my body felt
comfortable with, a word that encompassed everything. It meant defining a
new word that contained the essence of what I `knew', but for which there
was no re-action.

So I looked at `The Nothing', `Innocence', `the void', and all of those
other words the described wholeness.

Can there be innocence that does not have an opposite in `Guilt' .? can
there be a nothing that contains `Everything' .? Can there be a void that
contains only pure potential before separation, before I place a judgement
on what I see reflected back to me in the mirror? . Can there be a word or
a symbol which implies all of these, a nexus, a common meeting point that
does not have some implied meaning, a point like the dot within the circle
. Can there be something simple I can conceptualise as the essence of
everything .

From the Sanskrit, Ananda defines the Bliss of the Yoga or union with the
Divine. It has been used before as an image, a symbol, but has been the
object of conflict . it has been deified (or held up as a god).

Sanskrit is the root language behind many of the languages of the world.
The concept of this oneness was what I was looking for ... the essence of
oneness .

So anunda was born ... an essence, the One before separation of the Tao,
the void that it pure potential, the innocence that is beyond guilt, the
nothing that contains everything .

The meeting point of all spiritual pathways east and west, of all colours,
creeds and races of man.

There are no capital letters in `anunda' it is not an object, being or in
fact anything outside of you ... it is the you that you cannot see ... the
essence from which `God' and all the lesser gods descended .

Why . ? is the question asked by the knower inside each of us who
acknowledges the existence of that anunda/essence/innocence on some level
and cannot remember what it is that separated us from that.

The ego is all duality and plurality that has descended from that One ...
as the multiple products of thought ... yet it still contains the essence
of unification ...

We forgot when we looked in the mirror ... we forgot that the reflection we
see is the flip or reversal of what is looking ... we forgot that what we
were reading is metaphor for aspects of that which is in essence
undescribable.

This journey, the journey of 'Hearing the Children", the "Journey of
anunda" is the journey of remembering ... of reconnecting the fragments ...
of the ego/mind/body recovering all of the judgements and the children of
those judgements of the separation that saw one become two and two become
ten thousand other things.

It is not written from any textbook, but encompasses all . for there is
more wisdom in a tree before it is cut down, processed, turned into paper
and covered with the written word .

well,

i manifested a lover.

in March, after having chosen to be a hermit since Oct, 97, i asked the
universe:

I AM ASKING FOR PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OF JOYFUL LOVE WITH ANOTHER HUMAN
BEING

on the 28th March, i found this person via the classifieds on the
internet.

it was also around Feb. this year that i found this list and the
writings of Abraham.

can i say anything more?

in much appreciation of this list,
Thank you Abraham,
Thank you Esther,
Thank you David and Connnee,
Thank you all,

in love and light,
ireena

p.s. i now ask and want physical evidence of the abundance of money to
repay all my debts, to facilitate me in creating the kind of life style
that i want.

So Be It! :)

WHO AM I?

The singular great ontological question, no?

Ramana Maharshi, considered by some to be the greatest Indian metaphysical
teacher of this century, used this as his teaching method...simply getting
quiet and asking the question WHO AM I until the answer starts cumming.

The Zen koan is just the same: WHAT IS YOUR ORIGINAL FACE BEFORE YOU ARE
BORN.

Jesus answered that one by saying "Before Abraham was...I AM".

No pun intended (giggles).

biting the bushes.

No worries, girlfriend, really and truly...cause even if we're not hangin
on for dear life, dear LIFE is hangin on for dear us.

Ahhhhhhhhh....what a RELIEF that is.

And not only that (grin), but guess who's lurkin in those bushes, anyway?
I'll give ya a hint...it delurked for Moses and called itself I AM.

And doesn't that loop so nicely right back to the top of this post tho!

=========================

And finally, here's a "Who Am I" poem I wrote. I can't remember if I
posted it here before...so I'll post it again. It's allowed, as far as I
know.

Love,

I AM NetPaul (or have we stopped doing that one yet?)

What Would Happen to ME

"What is your original face before you were born" (Zen koan)

What would happen to ME
If I simply let go of it all
If, simply as simply could be,
Stopped banging my head on the wall,
And let it all drop fancy free
A fat rolling head on the floor.

What would happen to me?

And what would all those people roar?

Mammas and papas, uncles and aunties,
Grammas and grandpas and teachers and preachers,
All the right honorable authorities
Insisting they're right, and not me

How much disapproval would I feel,
How much disapproval could I take.
Feeling them collectively all shake
Their sage grey heads all muttering
Beneath their hairy breath

Thinking I am bad for even thinking of such death.

And even if I pushed them all away,
And then became a rebel with a cause,
Or maybe none
Would I ever pause,
And ask myself against whom I rebel?
And what about rebellion makes me strong?
And where it is that I must not belong?

Does being on the outside make me right?
Does being on the inside make me wrong?
Or is it just the other way around?

What is in the fabric of it all
That makes me think I need a precious piece
Of hallowed ground, a place where I can drive
A stake into the ground,
Of this hard beating heart that I have bound
Up with the head of something I must make

Identity.

What would happen to me?

What would happen if I gave a yell,
Long and loud enough to pull quite down
The fabric of my own reality,
My very nearly perfect half a hell,
Or half a heaven as the case may be?

What if I would pull THAT curtain down?

Who'd be left to run the big machine,
Billow smoke and holler "I am OZ,
OZ the Great and Terrible,
Heed Thou ME!"
And do be sure to write the whole thing down!"

What would happen if there WAS no me
Sitting in the middle of it all
All the hoot and holler, all the smoke,
Sitting in the middle of the joke?

What would happen to me?

What would happen if I finally climbed
The very highest mountain I could find,
And viewed the widest vista I could see,
And walked up to the very final ledge,
And contemplated life upon the edge
Of this particularity,
This reality
This peculiar hedge

And jumped because I heard a single voice
Sing soft and low of wild divinity
And looking at a gathering of crows
Decided I could fly, insanely free,
Into the boundless ocean blue of mind.

What would happen to me?

Would I forget the way back home?
The way to kiss the kids goodnight?
Forget the difference between red and green
Coming to a traffic light?

What would happen to me?

And what would happen,
What would happen,
What would happen if I then forgot
That everything is hard and I am slow
So slow to learn and quicker to forget?

Would I forget the places I must go
Would I forgot the people I must see.
Forget that IT is high and I am low?

What would I regret?
And what would happen to me?

And what would such forgetting
Get me in the end?
Could I, would I, make myself pretend
Pretend I know, pretend I do not know
The answer to the question "Who are you?"
Pretend it's not a mirror, nor a show
Shimmering above, beneath and through
The endless rolling waves of bluest sea?

What would happen to me?

And what would happen then to me at last
If I read a book and let it speak
Its peace to me, then simply put it down.
And let its starseed simmer in my brain
Not watched, nor thought about, again
Until the hidden seed took root and glared
In rocket rainbow arcs across that blue
and heaving ocean glass
Spurting leaves and branches as it grew
Itself all through the infinite blue pane.

To exactly whom
At that point could I possibly complain
My heart out to?

And to which channel would I then attune,
And who else's message would I seek,
Whose answers would I gather and whose prayers would I croon,
If all those rainbow arcs began to speak
All at once, of everything they knew
Or anything at all they wanted to?

Would I turn that pane into a wall?
Or let it fall and shatter, finally
Into a multi-colored spray of shards
Of nothing much at all?

So what WOULD happen to me
If I closed my eyes and jumped
Off that final ledge,
That final hump
That rudely juts into infinity,
That hump I call my very own

Identity?

Would I fall and smash into the ground,
Scream into air that silently slides round
This face about to shatter on a rock,
This flesh about to tear upon a tree?

What would happen to ME?
