Youth and Alignment
Here's a couple more quotes that Marsha provided for us from the last live workshop! Love and hugs, Connee Abe Now - Fountain of Youth - 4/21/24, 13:47 Q: Hi Abraham. I'd like to ask you about two questions today. The first is about the fountain of youth. So assuming we allow more and have less resistance as we get older, and our capacity for love grows over time, what is your perspective about the human part of us that is aging and getting older? So I personally feel more freedom and childlike now after following this body of work and you're teachings, than I did when I was a child. So I'd love to understand this fountain of youth from your perspective. The second question is about being in the power of attraction. So how is this related to being in harmony and balance with our physical and non-physical co-creators? And is being in assertive mode out of balance and harmony? Thank you. A: The fountain of youth is a tricky conversation because, as you've heard us say many times, most people offer most of their vibration, which is their point of attraction ¨C it¡¯s their belief system, isn't it? - from what they are observing. And so, as you move through time, there is so much around you that makes you aware that you are moving through time. Also, you're watching others who are moving through time. And you have your observation of that and your opinions of that. So it is understandable why your beliefs would follow with what you are observing. But you could consider looking at it this way. Why not call it the fountain of clarity? Or the fountain of enthusiasm. Or the fountain of love. Love¡¯s a little trickier word. But the fountain of clarity. Because clarity, and vitality, and flexibility, and good feeling all come from the same experience of being a vibrational match to the source energy within you. So, it is more difficult for you to not believe or expect your clarity than your aging. You see what we¡¯re getting at? It's all the same fountain. It's the fountain of alignment. It's the fountain of connection. It's really the fountain of life. So, for each of you, you're wanting to look for a way to have the least resistance possible on this subject of your evolution. You could call it the fountain of wisdom. The fountain of becoming. We know that you see what we're getting at. We'll leave the other part of your question to perhaps later as we¡¯re moving forward, once there's more conversation under our belt here. Abe Now - Your power is alignment - 4/21/24, 24:21 Q: Hello Abraham. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity that you share with us. My question centers around, what is my work? And in this time of domestic unrest and wars in Ukraine and Gaza and the Middle East, I think of Esther and Jerry on their front porch during a drought looking for the rain. And I was wondering if you could give us some guidance on how to find some rest in this time of unrest. Love you so much. Love to all. A: What you were pointing out to us is something that is very important, and that is that when something is personal to you, your reason to focus is greater. And when your reason to focus is greater and therefore you do focus, you can tap in to that broader perspective of focus. And that is where all of your power is. That's what empowerment is. It¡¯s that alignment. And so, when you are looking around the world at unrest, it's not as easy for you to focus. When you're looking up close, as the woman in Israel that night was looking at her potential unrest, literal unrest. Or when you think of the people in Gaza, with all of the terrible things that are going on there, lots of reason for unrest. They are focusing. They're focusing. But most who are in desperate situations who are focusing, aren't focusing in a way that they are able to let in well-being. While you may be focusing, as Jerry and Esther were that day, on the discomfort of the drought. They were not threatened. Their lives were not threatened. And so they could find alignment. What we're talking about here is, what does it take for me to find alignment? Well it takes a reason t

Abe on Drones in Israel
Hi, friends, Here's the first of the segments that Marsha is transcribing from last week's workshop. Such power to read of the woman who was able to sleep well even though the drones and bombs were predicted in Israel. That's alignment! Love and hugs, Connee Abe on Drones in Israel - 4/21/24, 17:10 Q: Abraham I love the discussion about the openness. And I really love the woman who asked the question. I love to see her on your screen. And it reminded me about curiosity about being open to experience the new, and about attachment theory actually because when a child experiences the world new when it's open, it needs an attachment figure behind him. And it looks behind him, you know, like on the playground. Am I safe? Is this safe? And it's an attachment figure. If you have security you can go on and be open in this world. And it really took me a little time to realize that this attachment figure is my inner being and that I can be open because I can trust on this guidance and on this sifting process. I can feel if it's good for me or not and there's no need to be guarded. So, thank you for this new word. A: Both the conversation that you are referring to, where someone introduced into that conversation the words open-minded. And we liked it, too. We've been talking about thinking outside the box. Being more open-minded is an easier way to address that. But both that conversation and what you are talking about here today is touching on a very important thing. So let's just take a little bit of time here and focus together. Always as you are standing in your now, with your existing point of attraction - there's that word from the previous question - you are challenged as humans, often, with wanting the security of what is, or the adventure of the unknown. That's really the essence of what this conversation is really about. Really, you're wanting the eagerness of moving forward, and the newness of it, and the excitement of it, of the expansion and the more. But again it's like Jerry's conversation about not putting your basket out so far that it confuses you or frightens you or makes you feel discouraged, but not so close up that it's boring. You want it to be far enough that it feels enticing and exciting but not so far that it feels threatening or unimaginable or impossible or not doable. So, each of you are under different situations, considering different subjects, in different places of feeling that out. And it really is a process of just feeling it out, isn't it? We are not really excited about the word attachment. It's used in so many ways that cause confusion. Humans similarly use the word grounded, meaning not getting too far away from what is stable and secure. But we would not be emphasizing things to our children or to ourselves that is guarded or fearful. The person on the playground watching out for you, that sort of thing. It is so overrated and so misunderstood, and it does increase the feeling of vulnerability. Where what you are wanting to do, as someone who lives in your body and in this world, and as someone who mentors others who are, whether they are children or adults, whether they are your children or others¡¯ children. What you're really wanting to do is to evoke from them - because you've got such a good job going on of you evoking it for yourself, activating in your bag of marbles, so to speak - your sense of well-being. And of course you hit upon it. The most magnificent sense of well-being that you can have is when you, once and for all, acknowledge the existence of your inner being, the existence of source energy. The existence of source energy¡¯s love and attention on you. Someone wrote a very magnificent email, someone living in Israel. That night that it was known that all of those drones and bombs and missiles were headed for Israel. And she was really considering what that meant to her. And she described her ability to diffuse and focus - she used the word focus - on her knowing that her inner being is aware of her, and that there is a powerful well-being that comes with that. And then she sl

Reasonable people working for the good of the whole
Hi, friends, At the last Abe Now workshop, they talked several times about current events and finding alignment in contrast. My friend is going to transcribe some of this when she has time. But for now, here's one quote from 4-21-24. "When you focus into alignment with Source, whatever you focus on benefits." I was pondering this, and then our friend Charlie Curtis sent out his weekly inspirational message and referenced the following quote that I found riveting when I listened to it. Abraham talked of focusing on reasonable people, working for the good of the whole. And I was reminded for Mr. Rogers telling us that his mother always told him that when there was news of a tragedy, look for the helpers. And synchronistically, on Wednesday night, I had dinner with a friend who works for NASA. And he was describing how NASA contracts with NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, to build and launch weather satellites. I look at maps that come from those satellites often in my weather app. And when I heard the quote below, it occurred to me that is an example of the benefit of reasonable people working for the good of the whole. And how many of those there are, everywhere! At one point, someone, not sure who, said we don't have to give our attention to the crazy person at the microphone, demanding attention, but rather think of the many silent people who every day make a huge difference in our lives and the lives of many. Yes, that feels so much better to me! Here's the quote that inspired me so much. Love and hugs, Connee Abraham 8-11-12 Portland Oregon Abe: Your opinion matters. But don¡¯t use your opinions as clubs to hurt other people. Don¡¯t use your opinions to prove the wrongness of their opinions. Use your opinions as information to help you determine what feels better. What would feel better than this? What would feel better than government in quagmire? A cooperative government. What would feel better than a government refusing to be logical because the quest to push against the opposition has become the most important thing. What would feel better than that? Reasonable people working for the good of the whole. Wouldn¡¯t that feel better? Do you have the ability to imagine reasonable people working for the good of the whole? Or do you only have the ability to observe a government in quagmire? If you have the ability to observe reasonable people who are working for the good of the whole, then some of them who are there already, reasonable people, working for the good of the whole, will come into your awareness as evidence of what you¡¯re reaching for. You don¡¯t need a consensus from millions or billions. You only need consensus of your vibration here and now and what¡¯s in your vortex. And friends, we want to tell you, that consensus is easy to accomplish. But in order to accomplish it, these are the things that we assign to this particular body of people, here and around the world. These are the things you need to do. You need to play more. You need to go outside more. You need to move your body more. You need to drink more water. You need to quiet your mind more. You need to make more lists of Positive Aspects. You need to get on rampages of appreciation. And most of all, oh, we love you so much, You need to give yourselves a break. You don¡¯t feel like going to work, don¡¯t go. But if you go to work, make sure you feel like going before you go¡­ When you discover that you can go to work, and feel good, that you can have an existing government and feel good, that you can live in a world that has some chaos going on and feel good, when you discover you have the individual, personal power to feel good regardless of the conditions, then you will have mastered unconditional love. And when you have mastered unconditional love, the condition must contour to your expectation. It is our promise to you. You can singlehandedly solve any problem of your own and positively influence any problem that exists anywhere in the vicinity of your awareness. And you don¡¯t need consensus of the world, you don¡¯t need political

Two quotes from the workshop on 4/10
Hi, friends, My friend Marsha has done it again - transcribed a couple of great quotes for us! YAY! Thanks, Marsha! Love and hugs, Connee Unwanted equals hot coal in sea - 4/10/24, 1:45:30 Q: Abraham in the 14th century a man wrote, ¡°But all the wickedness in the world, which man may do or think is no more to the mercy of God than a live coal dropped in the sea.¡± And while one can quibble with any of those words - God, wickedness, mercy - behind them there's a knowing of the infinite love and clarity present, there for the asking. Whether by the billions of cells in the body, or the billions of people on the earth. For years, I used to get a cold chill of fear when I passed a news stand. But lately, sometimes I get a vivid sense of that Source presence. And the nearness of solutions, relief, and new creation. So thanks very much. And much love. A: Oh, it's so good to know that and so good to feel that. We like the 14th century comparison of the well-being in relationship to the not well-being. That's really good. All of the unwanted, in those words wickedness or evil. It's like dropping a hot coal into the sea. And that's about how much effect that it really has, and that is a very accurate comparison, we would say. We liked that you activated the word mercy right on the heels of us talking about compassion, because we would see them as one and the same. Good conversation. We can¡¯t add to the words that you offered. They are pitch perfect. ____________________________ Highest Priority - 4/10/24, 1:47:30 Q: Hello everyone. I don't really have a question. I just want to say thank you. I feel like for the first time things have solidly clicked in. Everything has gotten so easy and I'm realizing that this is the way it's supposed to be. I really became a deliberate creator in the last few months. And I've created the schedule that I want with my work, freeing up time to really do some of the things I've been wanting to do, including bringing my invention to the marketplace. And all of that has been so much fun. I'm really enjoying it. And anything that has seemed difficult or things that I didn't want to do, I'm noticing that now that I'm really in alignment, all of those things are so easy and fun. A: We are appreciating how particularly in this conversation today, how many of you, and us too, have become practical in the things that we are offering. Not just the laws of the universe and how they work, but some practical functions. We particularly liked your phrase, ¡°Freeing up some time to do the things that I really want to do.¡± In your physical terms, you call that compartmentalizing sometimes, or prioritizing. We like to call it segment intending or even just intending. But you're answering our friend earlier who was sort of wandering around her room talking to us, giving us a sort of dizzying experience as she was moving and talking. Who was wanting to give herself permission to do more of the things that are pleasing to her. And what you just said is, I've decided to carve out the time to give myself an opportunity to do the¡­ And what we want to say is prioritizing - in what we consider to be the best way of prioritizing - the things that feel good. In other words, compartmentalizing and prioritizing if you can just give yourself permission to do more of those things that feel good. When that is of the highest priority, then what you're doing is you're putting alignment with your source energy as your highest priority. You're putting your vibrational marbles in a perfect vibrational match to the marbles of your inner being. You're making clarity your highest priority. You're making timing your highest priority. You're making being in the right place at the right time¡­ You're making rendez-vous your highest priority. You're making being a cooperative component yourself and rendez-vous-ing with other cooperative components your highest priority. In other words, we like how those of you who've been listening in, and thinking in, and contributing in for a couple of years now with these broadcasts, how you are now finding

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 grea

Just make the best of things
From Facebook today: Q: Can I possibly be in the area of the Vortex and actually not be feeling happy? A: Nope. Nope. Happiness is an interesting word because sometimes you're happy just because something is interesting; you just feel good. You're interested. Interested is a form of happiness, don't you think? And satisfaction is a form of happiness. And enthusiasm is certainly a form of happiness. So happiness is a pretty broad word, but it is a high vibration. So feeling satisfied or interested or eager... Q: So I need to take it a step at a time. So from what I've heard today it would be for me to be focusing on being satisfied. A: Yeah. And give yourself a break - lean as far toward happy as you can. Just lean there, which means just try to make the best of things, just try to turn it just a little bit; try to just make the best of things. And here's the big piece: Stay off the subjects that are real downers, because with those subjects that are real downers, you want to focus on them because you think that they're the ones that deserve your attention, that you have to fix the most, but they're the ones that are doing the most to train your vibration downward. Q: I agree, I totally agree. And it is why I make the choice almost every day to listen to your guidance, actually. A: But after a while, if you're in a pessimistic mood, our recordings will just annoy you. (Fun) Q: No, I understand. A: It's like "Really, Abraham? Really? Why don't you come here and live with me?" (Fun) Q: And actually they very rarely do. I mean I feel mostly in alignment most of the time with that. ~ Abraham-Hicks North Los Angeles 813/2016 #AbrahamHicks Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

Abe on understanding our harmonies
Hi, friends, My friend Marsha transcribed another awesome quote from the last workshop! Love and hugs, Connee Abe on questioner with Christian girlfriend ¨C Abe Now 3/30/24 1:32:43 Q: Hi, Abraham. My question is about a relationship I'm currently in, which is kind of at a breaking point of, we're not sure which way to go, one way or the other. She is a Christian and does not support my belief systems at all. You know, we're quite a vibrational mismatch in a lot of ways. But she is such an amazing creator and so connected with law of attraction, even though she doesn't understand it. And it's really tough to find a way to get out of that, and really be able to focus on pursuing my peace and my joy, and being a little selfish. And I would just like your guidance on how to do that more effectively, whether that means staying or going, and what the right way to go is. So thank you very much for this opportunity. A: In the conversation that we had in the last hour, the one about personality, how are we defined, what is our belief system - all of that¡­ It¡¯s important to understand that life does mold you into perspectives. So, when you think about it, when you think about the very large population of your planet, and the variety of exposure to life and therefore, conclusions and decisions that people have made, it's easy to acknowledge that there could be a lot of incompatibility. Just because of the way belief systems are and the way life has touched you and so forth. But when you consider the things that we've been talking about even only in this broadcast, about the existence of that larger part of you who remains non-physically focused, who is pure love. And you realize that every single person is an extension of that. And in varying degrees they are allowing their conscious connection to that. They can't disallow their connection to it. You cannot cease to be an extension from that. You also cannot disconnect from your guidance system, which is constantly letting you know how much of that full version of yourself you are allowing or disallowing in any moment. And so your sweet girlfriend, we can feel the things that you were saying about her, her alignment and how much her point of attraction is reflected by her connection to all of that. And so, don't let the labels that so many people are offering get in your way. People use those labels of religion or politics or race or so many things be divisive terminology that makes them push against one another, when at the core there is love and alignment. All right so let's get right to the specifics of this. This will help you so much. Even if you're the only one who applies it. If both of you do, even better. But even if you're the only one who applies it. Look at it this way, this is what we would do. I have an opinion about the law of attraction. And my girlfriend has an opinion about Christianity. And we would like to say to you, there is nothing about alignment that would take anyone away from the love of that one that is revered as Christ, as Jesus. But a lot of people freak out if we were even so bold as to imply that we have some sort of connection to that. Because they don't want anyone who is living to actually have an active connection to that. And, all of you have an active connection to that. And it's called a lot of different things. The basis of all religions is in the vortex. And so, wouldn't it be nice ¨C that¡¯s a stretch, isn't it - wouldn't it be nice if humans could understand their harmonies rather than amplifying their discords. If they could focus upon what feels good rather than pushing so hard against what feels bad. But that¡¯s never going to happen across the board with everyone, and it doesn't need to. You don't need to agree about everything. If you could just agree that you are two humans who are extensions of Source energy, who can tell by the way you feel how much of that Source energy you are allowing in any point in time, you can be compatible without stepping on the toes of each other's philosophy or belief.

The happiness factor
From Suraj on Facebook: ??? Esther used to say to Jerry right from the beginning of their relationship, let¡¯s go and get a coke and pretend that we are on a vacation. Because that feeling of being on a vacation just felt so good. Doesn¡¯t that feeling of no responsibility, nobody is looking for me, nobody is expecting anything of me now, I don¡¯t need to be doing anything other than what I am doing right now, is that feeling of utter freedom, that feeling of being free, that feeling of that¡¯s who you are, that¡¯s how you were born, that¡¯s the way you were meant to be. But it¡¯s the vibrational adjustment that is necessary, then the conditions will conform and after a while you will find yourself eagerly moving through all kinds of activities and all kinds of experiences and in the absence of resistance you are free flowing and it always feels good to you. It¡¯s not about what you do. It¡¯s about the vibrational frequency you are standing in while you are doing it. That¡¯s all life is always obout. So instead of measuring with yourselves about Who¡¯s doing the most? That person makes way too much money per hour. Instead of measuring that, if you would just measure the happiness factor. You will figure it all out. ?? ? Abraham-Hicks. Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

Positive future!
From Facebook: There are a lot of people who are speculating about positive futures. We are among them. In fact, we are so certain of the positive future that we will say to you that there is no regression, that it is not possible, and we're going to plead a very powerful case for this. Think about everything that you've been hearing from us, especially lately in the vernacular that we've been offering it. So you are Source energy and you sent a part of that Consciousness here to explore contrast, which causes you to expand. The Source Energy part of you takes the expansion. So from everything that you are living, the Source that is the beginning of all that is the future experience is extracting from what you are living the very best of it, and it is on that premise and basis that future generations are coming forth. Does that sound like endedness or like eternalness? ~ Abraham-Hicks Los Angeles 8/16/2008 #AbrahamHicks Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

Segment intending sadness or love?
From Facebook today; What you just did is take your notebook and you just said ¡°I feel sadness over many things I see¡±. And if you are really segment intending...if you are really wanting to merge yourself with your Inner Being, which is the ultimate step five moment, then your sentiment would be something like: ¡°There are unwanted things amongst many wanted things and I love focusing on the wanted things, no matter what. There are so many more wanted things than unwanted in every moment in time for everyone. I love the sensation of being in such sync with my Inner Being that I am seeing the world through the eyes of Source. The only thing that produces and perpetuates satisfaction is knowing what you want, and moving toward it. There is satisfaction and dissatisfaction potential in every moment of focus. I am not here to control anything that anyone is doing. I am here to control my response to whatever comes in my experience. The only thing I am here to control is my vibrational relationship with my Inner Being because, when I get in control of that, that means that every single moment in time I am so practiced in syncing up with that, that I have access to the thought that my Inner Being thinks about that.¡± So you are aware that a child has died and your Inner Being is aware that that child is eternal. And you are aware that that child is no longer in its physical body and your Inner Being is aware that there¡¯s no separation of non-physical and physical and the communications and the relationships can continue on, if they are wanted. Or you see someone suffering and you think, ¡°Oh it¡¯s a terrible situation that¡¯s causing that person to suffer¡±. And your Inner Being is thinking, ¡°This person is merely temporarily depriving themselves of the pleasure of alignment and that could change as quickly as they take the stick out of the wheel¡±. When you give yourself the knowledge-based ability to hook up with your Inner Being and what your Inner Being knows about every situation then (and really, only then) are you the person in this body in this time and space in the way that you intended as you came. ~ Abraham-Hicks Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

Abe on visualization and 8 year crush
Hi, friends, My friend Marsha transcribed two more segments for us! So grateful to her and to Abraham and Esther for this endless and beautiful wisdom! Love and hugs, Connee Abe on visualization, 3/6/24 55:00 Q: Hi Esther. Hi Abraham. Thank you so much for doing these broadcasts. My issue today is that I'm having a, I¡¯m experiencing kind of the same thing all the time, like my life is the same. So I know that means that I'm spending too much time observing what is. So I've decided to do some visualization. So I know what visualization is, but I'm not sure what to do. Do I¡­ Like say I wanted to do a trip somewhere. Do I just spend some time thinking about hitting the highlights of that trip? Is that where you would suggest I go with that? And also, is there anything else that you might suggest so that I'm not observing so much of what it is? Thank you. A: Well, this question fits right in with where we are, doesn't it? So, you're right about focusing on what is. It¡¯ll get you stuck there. Sort of inside the box observation. And it is a good idea to visualize. But we would like to have a discussion with all of you, especially with you who has sent this video. We want to expand your understanding of what we know visualization to be. Think about visualizing as receiving, as reception, rather than as projection. Now think about the game we asked you to play where you choose a subject that is an easy existing match. Something that is neutral. Something that has no concern. And focus on it just for a little bit. And notice how the law of attraction brings more to that until it becomes larger and larger. And what we want you to hear in this explanation is that by starting with something... Like when you say, I would like to plan a trip and I would like to visualize it. Well you may be asking more of yourself than you're ready to do and you may introduce more resistance into it. But if you could start in a more general place, where you say, I like experiencing new things that are uplifting to me. Or, I like the feeling of anticipation. I like the feeling of anticipation. I like looking forward to something. I like that feeling of looking forward to something. Now pay attention to the way you feel, and if that phrase isn't working for you then back right off of it and reach for something else. I like looking forward to something and I like travel. I like going to places that I haven't been before. Or, I even like going to places I have been before and seeing aspects that I have not seen before. Now feel how general we are being. We've not picked a place. We've not purchased airfare. We didn't get online and look for hotels in some city. We're just speaking generally of how fun it is, or how good it feels to... I like walking out of a building in a city that I don't know and taking in my first breaths of air, and my first sights and sounds of the city. I like that uplifting feeling that I find. Now, just this little bit of conversation is enough to generate some visualization. You may catch a glimpse of something. Esther goes right to Barcelona with this thought. Of this hotel that's on an intersection with beautiful buildings, and it's a big wide intersection. And it's a visualization of something that you might call memory. But it's not happening now. And it isn't memory in the way you think of memory. It¡¯s a visualization. Now let it sit for a little bit. And feel if you don't have somewhat of a feeling of anticipation. It'll be fun. It'll be fun to see some new sites. To experience some new things. To meet some new people. Now, we've been making a statement for a while... It was confusing to a lot of you. You wrote to us about it. And the statement was, was actually talking about quieting your mind, which is what being general does. And then watch the movie, the visualization, if there is one. Watch the movie if there is one. Watch the movie if there is one. Well for Esther, her mind is exploding with seascapes, and views from her ocean going vessel deck. And her treehouse. And Lovable Cat just ran by. And a stream with some fi

Christian background and channeling
from Facebook today: Hotseater: "I came here with some skeptism because I don't really believe in channeling...(laughter from crowd) And, coming from a Christian background, I was taught that this is "new age" and... Abe: Well, where does the Christian religion get it's knowledge? Guest: From the scripture. From the bible. Abe: But where did those come from? Guest: Uh.... Abe: Channeling. (loud applause) a little later... Abraham: Anytime anyone looks outside of themselves for guidance they always get less than when they are looking for it within. And there are many people that look for guidance within religion and find it. You have found guidance there. You have found clarity there. You weren't making wrong choices. Hotseater: So, I'm kind of confused. Who is God? Who is Jesus? What's heaven and hell? Abe: God is Source energy and the culmination of all that you are. God is expanding here today in this room. God expands each time you live something not wanted and prefer something more. Even if you are the one-celled omoeba in the ocean¡­God expands in that too. Jesus is a physical human, like you, who came forth into this environment, like you, to understand who he is and how he fits into all of this. And he banged around like you for a long time also, and then removed himself from the chaos of all that and went away and was taught by others to meditate and get inside himself, where he closed that vibrational gap and connected with source in the way that Esther is doing here and in a way that every one of you can too. And, he said that to all of you. The kingdom of heaven is within you. It is not that which is outside of you. When he says 'Turn the other cheek", he's talking about turning your canoe into the flow. He's talking about not pushing against. In other words, he is not different from that which you are. Heaven is the illusion that physical man has about what it will be like when he no longer has resistance. Heaven is an illusion in the sense that it is not a place, but it is certainly a state of being. And, heaven exists right here on earth or exists here, where we are. Heaven is the state of non-resistance, you see. And hell is the fiction of man's disconnected mind. There is no such thing as hell (thunderous applause). And, you know it. Think about it. You knew that every time somebody tried to teach you about that you got your knot in your stomach and what was that know telling you? That knot was telling you that you were activating a vibration about a subject and your Source was not going there. In other words, Source says there's no such thing. There's no such thing. There's no such thing. And, as you are trying to teach yourself that there is, you create a crevice between you and you. And, when we said that just now it felt to us as if you said, "Hell, YES." ~ Abraham-Hicks 4/29/06 Asheville, NC Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

Abe on Easy Existing Matches, 3/6/24
Hi, friends, Here's another quote that Marsha transcribed for us. YAY! Love and hugs, Connee Abe on Easy Existing Matches, 3/6/24, 39:00 A: You've been thinking thoughts habitually. That's what a belief is. And some of your thoughts are so habitual, and so supported by others who have the same opinions or expectations or habits of thought, that it normalizes it. So it just feels normal to think these unpleasant thoughts, these not good feeling thoughts, or experience these not good feeling experiences. But we want to submit to you that you have choices that you don't know you have because you're stuck in these habits. You've got to find some way of accepting that you don't have to be stuck in these habits. We know how annoying it feels to you when we say to you it doesn't have to be that way. But it doesn't have to be that way. We know it annoys you when we say slight shifting in the way you think, and therefore in the way you feel, can lead to another shift and another shift and another shift until something really tips and manifestation changes. But manifestation does not change suddenly. And that's a good thing. It's subtle vibrational shifts. Just getting outside the habitual way of thinking more often, if you can. And then connecting the dots. It's what the story of¡­ Make a short list. We're going to give you an assignment. We don't do this usually. But this will be really helpful to all of you. Once this broadcast is finished, take a piece of paper and decide that you're going to get outside your box of worry, outside your box of responsibility, just for a little game we're going to ask you to play. Outside the normal thoughts. And write down five things that you have some soft interest in. Not strong interest. Strong interest, you've been thinking about it too much, and you've got a mixed bag of thoughts. Soft interest. Like, it could even be something that, you look around your environment, and your environment triggers it. Triggers that make you think of the thought. But it's really a neutral kind of thought. As Esther looks around this studio, this new studio, she can see window shades that are down because of a desire to control the light. So ¡°window shades,¡± Esther could write on her list. Now Esther does not have strong thought about window shades. As she looks around this space, she sees her computer. She has positive thoughts about computer. So she could think ¡°screensaver.¡± She could look around this room... This room is carpeted, which is really nice for the sound control in this room. Esther loves floors. Only positive thoughts about them. Esther could think, ooh, there are carpets that are inside the box. This one is. And there are extraordinary carpets that are outside the box. So Esther could write ¡°amazing wonderful carpets.¡± Outside the box. You sort of get what we're thinking about. Now, what we are saying to you is, once you make your list, these thoughts that hold little or no resistance, that held enough interest because you focused with us for a while. And you're going to do the process, and you're going to write it down, on your phone, or on a note, on a small card. You're going to keep it in your pocket. Or in your handbag. You don't have to get it out and look at it again. You already turned it loose to the universe. And now, you're going to move through your day. And Esther is going to see in interesting ways, screensavers, and window shades, and extraordinary carpeting. It's going to come to her. And it's going to be pointed, and it's going to be frequent, and she's going to know that it's in response to her point of attraction. She's also going to know that it's because these are neutral, meaning non-resistant subjects for Esther. Which are the ones that the universe can act on the fastest with you. When you ask for an improvement about a relationship that has broken your heart, you've got so much resistance that the improvement can't come till you find a way to get over that resistance. And that takes some time, doesn't it? When you ask for more money when you're feeling stress about no

Love. 2
from Facebook Love. Don't try to define it. Just feel it. Let it bump all over you. Let it come inside of you and outside of you. Just let it twinkle through your eyes. Let it radiate through your smile. Let it beat through your heart. Let it throb through your being. Just feel the love. And be the love. And stop trying to figure out where it came from and how, where it's been, and how long it's going to last. Just let it in in the moment¡­just let it out where you are. ~ Abraham-Hicks Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

Think around what-is
From Facebook this morning: What humans mean by what-is is what is manifested into a strong enough vibration that you can interpret it though your physical senses. So when humans say this is how it is, they mean ¡°I can see it - I can see it and smell it, I can taste it and touch it - it is manifested in a way and this is what is.¡± So if you are doing what most people are doing, you're offering most of your vibration (the vibration that Law of Attraction is answering) based upon what you are observing with your physical senses. And you have to cut that out because if what you're offering vibrationally is about what-is, then you can't get more money, you can't find improvement in your relationship (you can't fill in a missing relationship with a relationship), you can't change the way your body feels or looks - you can't change anything if you don't do something other than look at what-is. Can it be any more clear than that? Do you agree with that? Do you get it that you just keep recreating what you think about, so it keeps changing but it keeps changing to more of the things that you're thinking about? So the question that really is before all of us, no matter what it is that you're wanting to be different in your experience, is do you have the desire and then do you have the ability to think around what-is? Can you stop compounding what-is by conversations about what-is? ~ Abraham-Hicks French Riviera Cruise September 2017

Reach For feeling of relief
From Facebook today: Share Their Gloomy Forecasts? Q: Hi, Abraham. So, just wanted to tell you that about a year and a half ago, I was rummaging through a box in the garage. I was looking for a piece of music, and I ran across my Abraham tapes from a two-day workshop I did with you in ¡¯95. And I was just delighted. And I said, my Abraham tapes, I love these, and I started listening every chance I got. I would go out on my lunch hour at work and listen. And my husband started listening. And right away, our lives just transformed. It was good to begin with, and became richer and richer. We¡¯re blessed that our circle of friends know you, and even the friends who don¡¯t, know that there¡¯s something going on. And are asking me, ¡°How is it that you can be so positive? And, you know, your relationships are good. And what¡¯s the secret to your good marriage?¡± And I said, ¡°Well, I know not to get upset about things. I just don¡¯t see a need to worry.¡± And they said, ¡°You don¡¯t worry about anything? That¡¯s pretty amazing.¡± And I did some sifting...and here¡¯s the point of all this. A: Yes, we¡¯ve noticed you were rambling. (Fun!) Q: I did find a concern I had, and the intellectual part is, you¡¯ve told us that the planet is in good order; it replenishes itself; all is well; its beasts move easily in and out, and I found a lot of reassurance from that. But I¡¯m so tenderhearted that a little bird¡¯s nest fell out of the light fixture near our door, and I thought I¡¯d die, little birdlets scattered everywhere. And then, someone told me¡­ I purposefully didn¡¯t see Al Gore¡¯s movie, sat down with my head in the sand over this, I know that all is well. And I¡¯m going to keep that. And then, a well-meaning friend who talks about¡­ you know, there¡¯s a lot of what I call it doomsday dramas, and it is kind of beguiling. And I see that. I did that for a while. I was a vegetarian, and, you know, all my cosmetics and blah blah. But I didn¡¯t want to see it. But she was telling me about the polar bears. And, you know, I thought I¡¯d die when the birdlets fell on the ground, and then when she told me about the polar bears, I felt like she¡¯d punched me in the stomach and my heart clenched and¡­ A: And so if, in that moment, one of your people who is aware of how positive you are had walked into your experience and asked how do you stay so positive, what would you have said? Q: I have selective worrying, I guess. I don¡¯t worry about anything but the beasts. Well, that¡¯s not true, but that one really got me. And it throws me off kilter every time I think about it. So, I try not to think about it. And so, I guess my question is, what about the poor polar bears? A: Well, whether you realize it or not, you have stumbled across the key to keeping yourself in vibrational alignment with who you are by using your power of focus. So, what you just explained to us is that you¡¯ve done pretty good at feathering your own nest. Maybe that¡¯s too soon to give that analogy to you. (Fun!) You¡¯ve gotten pretty good at controlling the environment around you so that you can focus more easily only upon things that feel good, and in doing so, that really is the secret of just staying in alignment with who you are. We started to interrupt you a time or two as you were rambling (Fun!) (it¡¯s all right), to say to you that if you were consciously aware that you have been around as long as we are consciously aware that we have been around, you would not let the things that people are worrying about bother you because you would realize how humans have worried about things almost from the time that they¡¯ve been around, and things continue to evolve and get better and better and better and better and better and better and better. Of course, you could focus upon any little pocket of the world, and you find within it components that are pleasing to you, or components that are not¡ªand it really is a matter of tuning yourself to them. So, now we want to say to you that until you reach the place where you finally just get it, that there¡¯s too much out there in this world that you are focused upon

Fun is where the idea is
From Facebook today: Esther is in a new house and she has a new washer and dryer, and the week before she moved in - it was right before Christmas - the washing machine gave her an error code. And it locked the door and she couldn¡¯t get anything out of it, so she googled what the error code meant and it looked very complicated. So she called the people that she had purchased it from, and they put her on a long list of waiting. Her clothes were going to be held captive for about six or seven days. So she just monkeyed around with it and somehow the door opened and she got her clothes out. And then, it sort it fixed itself for a while¡­it didn¡¯t lock up again. And she thought ¡°It¡¯s going to hold my clothes captive again¡±, because she knew she hadn¡¯t solved the problem but she wasn¡¯t there, so it didn¡¯t matter so much. And then the other day, she was away and her housekeeper called and said, ¡°The washing machine has called an error code¡±, and her clothes were being held captive. So Esther said, ¡°I will be home in a couple of days and we will figure it out.¡± So the man from the builder came over and played with it and couldn¡¯t figure it out. And then he called the same people that Esther had called before who put her on the waiting list of nine days of clothes held captive. And as Esther is listening, she can feel herself all tightening up. Because they bought a lot of appliances from these people. And they shouldn¡¯t be holding their clothes captive and somebody should care more about these clothes being help captive. And it should go to a higher priority and don¡¯t they know who Esther is? Someone who¡¯s really really busy, who doesn¡¯t have time for her clothes to be held captive. So Esther got herself worked into quite a little silent fit. She didn¡¯t want to misbehave in front of her contractor but she sort of wanted to kill somebody. And he was the only one in the room, and he felt fear. And so Esther said, ¡°Well, I have a plan B.¡± And she said, ¡°I am going to go to Home Depot and I am going to buy a crowbar and I am going to pry the door open and get my clothes out.¡± Now he¡¯s really smiling because he believes her. ¡°And then I am going to call someone and I am going to say, ¡®Can you please come and get this pile of metal and haul it to the dump?¡¯ And then I am going to call somebody else and say, ¡®Will you bring that nice shiny washing machine and deliver it?¡¯ And I am going to do all of that today.¡± And now they are laughing. Because it¡¯s a ridiculous story, but it was shiny and bright. It felt like freedom. It felt like the bondage has lifted. It was a ridiculous plan. But it was a plan. And she no longer felt bound and held captive by people who don¡¯t care. And now she¡¯s really laughing and so is her contractor. And now she¡¯s laughing¡­ which pile she is in. And then she looked her washing machine. It¡¯s a Maytag. And she said, ¡°You know what? The Maytag repairman is just waiting for someone to call because he has nothing to do.¡± And the contractor said, ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± So Esther googled Maytag repairman and he was just sitting there with nothing to do. He said I will be right there. He came over. He said, ¡°This is a known issue with this particular model.¡± He fixed it. Her clothes were not held captive and she lived happily ever after. So what¡¯s that about now? Esther¡¯s unique and Esther does not want to be mad, even when she knows she¡¯s perfectly justified in being mad. And so she was guided even though it was not easy, to a stream of thoughts that led her to an idea that she couldn¡¯t find before. She could not find that idea before until she got in to place of comedy. Isn¡¯t that a really logical idea? She couldn¡¯t find it. Her contractor couldn¡¯t find it. Nobody could find that idea until they brought levity to it. So this is a demonstration of no longer wrestling it to the ground and killing it and try to fix what¡¯s broken and instead get into a clear place where you are laughing where the ideas always are. Fun is where the ideas are. Laughter is where the ideas are. Love is where the ideas are. Appreciation is where t
