(These are some Facebook postings, saved here before they disappear into the black hole…) April 25, 2012  Day 1 I am going to do what Yogini Param Sangat is doing in this Living Abraham Hicks group (on Facebook). Report on every fantastic thing that happens on every fantastic day, deliberately filtering out any negative stuff. [...]

I am using this blog right now as a personal diary. Just letting you know. This evening I had an intense negative experience. Negative in the sense of the feelings it engendered in me and afterward left me with. Huge waves of anger and disappointment, rolling along with their own momentum. I recognized there was [...]

My inner being

Received from the Abraham mailing list by my inner being, and reposted here by my inner being. Sounds like simple advice, feels like simple advice, feels possible. Take your Inner Being everywhere you go. If you take your Inner Being to the party, it’s going to be a good party! If you take your Inner [...]

There is a wide circle of human beings, right now, on this planet, moving on paths that spiritually intersect with mine. Hello, others. What can I do for you? What can you do for me? “As I stand in my focused, human, leading-edge experience, and I choose this combination of thoughts and feelings, I am [...]

Sin

I am reading through some handouts I got at the meetings of the General Church clergy in Bryn Athyn this June. A couple of the highlighted headlines strike me: “Recognize and admit to your sin,”  somewhere in the steps of repentance. And then, “Accept that you are at fault.” Wow, do I really want to [...]

“All people, circumstances, events, and situations are attracted to you by the power of the thoughts that you are thinking.” (Abraham Hicks) – Bull shit. No way. Things just happen. Bad things happen to good people, too. – Ah, those voices. Trying to divert my attention and my belief away from Divine Providence. I am [...]

Abraham gives this guidance: “Tell your story as you want it to be.” We tell a story about our lives. An old story. – Let me tell you what I think, what happened to me the other day. Let me tell you what I don’t like and why. Let me tell you how it is. [...]

Gratitude looks back. Appreciation looks forward. “When you feel gratitude, often you are looking at a difficulty that you have overcome, but there is still some of that ‘struggle’ vibration present.” (Abraham Hicks) Appreciation beats gratitude. Oh, and don’t force your kids to say Thank You.

Appreciation

Appreciation means: to increase the value of. Appreciation is a way of turning downstream, instead of struggling against the current. Appreciation is the vibration of alignment with who you are. It is the absence of resistance. Appreciation is the presence of everything that feels good. Gratitude, often, is related to a struggle I have overcome. [...]

There are some concepts in the Writings of Swedenborg that are very attractive yet have never really been clear to me. “Remnants” is one of those. Even the word itself is vague. Remnants of what? Remnants where? Remnants that are in pieces? In one of the dissertations for Theological School, just a few years ago, [...]

Swedenborg has a teaching that time and space are not fixed things in the spirit world. The apparent passage of time is more to do with states and feelings changing, than with time passing. Same with space (DP 50; TCR 29). We are spirits, in a physical body. Time and space for our spirit is [...]

Every thought that I think, if I keep thinking it, will eventually become powerful enough to attract the essence of itself into my experience. (Abraham – The Law of Attraction) This also covers all those thoughts that concern problems, what’s wrong in the world, or the latest global disaster. “Come, take up the cross, and [...]

It isn’t wrong to believe in something that brightens the mind, that inspires, that feels sacred, clean and good. And to the extent that I feel that way about anything, I will obviously share this with other people. So what is evangelization about? (It’s such a big scary word.) Is it about spreading the truth?

The reason for life

Why do we live? Why are we here, in this life filled with hardships? Abraham gave the answer. Question: Why does the dog put its head out of the window of the automobile, and risk getting bugs in its eyes? Abraham: Because the ride is so worth it. Same answer for us.

“Your real work is to find a way to be in the receiving mode.” (Jerry and Esther Hicks). “Whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” (Mark 11:24) “Little heed is paid to the prayers of those in the throes of temptation.” (AC 8179) The Lord is [...]

The following text is from Swedenborg’s Arcana Coelestia # 4247.3. I have parallelized it with understandings from the teachings of Abraham, to show how these interrelate and correspond with and add to each other. … Good flows into truth and makes it its own. The Source energy that made me, makes everything, every thought, feeling, [...]

The Divine is far away. Out of my reach. Somewhere in heaven or in creation. Far way. Right? No. Words create this impression. By thinking about the Lord as the man Jesus Christ, I can get into the belief that he is far away. He lived 2000 years ago, after all. That’s far away. By [...]

“Most people who are in the midst of observing something unwanted in another person believe that if the unwanted condition were not there to be observed, they would not be observing it.” (The Vortex – Jerry and Esther Hicks) (Abraham) And that’s not true, in case you were wondering. Well, I am grateful for having [...]

Ancient Bible texts, poetic and cryptic: Awake, awake, O Zion, clothe yourself with strength. Put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, the holy city. Shake off your dust; rise up, sit enthroned, O Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains on your neck, O captive Daughter of Zion. For this is what the LORD says: [...]

I am reading the book The Vortex by Esther and Jerry Hicks. In the foreword is the very true comment that any book (or film, talk, sermon, conversation) that introduces one single new thought into my life is worth its money. And whadda ya know, the intro goes on to give me just such an [...]
