My daily desire
sculpted
in Hebrew and in English, emphasized by one image;
sometimes enriched by a relevant bio-story and by that day's Abraham-quote
October
17, evening – October 18, morning, Sunday,
2009
at Shoham with Efrat and Mika
MY DESIRE
TODAY
My desire is that
in our togetherness tomorrow
my brother-peer will have all the stage,
and that I'll finally catch and internalize
that in my pursuit of equality between us
I'm like the rabbit, which in the race with the turtle always
lost,
for when it reached the target at one end, the turtle had preceded
it,
and when it ran to the other end, the turtle was already there.
How?
One one end turtle-he placed itself, on the other end –turtle-she…

4 days ago,
Ya'acov drove with me to fetch Mika
from "Orchid Kindergarden"
and let her push the button for making his wheelchair descend from the
car.

"Heaven-on-Earth"
October
18, evening – October 19, morning, Monday,
2009
at Shoham with Efrat and Mika
(after my brother-peer helped me to "purify"
and accentuate yesterday's desire:)
MY DESIRE
TODAY
My desire is to internalize
that "Equality
in Self-Esteem" between me and my brother-peer
is based
on similarity between us regarding the frequency
of feeling and spirit,
& on contrast between us regarding kind and weight of life
experience. |
Last morning, as often before kindergarden, Mika came into my room/her
drawing study.
"This is a pirate, and this too, and this
is a boat, and these are seats for the people".
Then she drew 2 children, and when she began to draw a third one in
between, she said:
"The legs of this child are asleep - look,
I'm drawing its legs!"
I couldn't help exclaiming; "Like Ya'acov's
legs?"
It must have hit her, what she has not integrated from that encounter
with Ya'acov:
"I said: the child is asleep!"
I was stupid enough to insist: "No, you said,
the legs of the child are asleep!"
She stopped drawing altogether....
picked up a tiny doll from the desk, intending a role-play, and told
me, what my part was...
October
19, evening – October 20, morning, Tuesday,
2009
from Shoham with Efrat and Mika and 1 hr with Immanuel - to my home
in Arad
MY DESIRE
TODAY
My desire is that tomorrow
when hitchhiking home to Arad,
I can make drivers who feel "unworthy and without meaning"
to align with their Source who knows "I am worthy~~ I love
myself~~
I'm looking at every moment for what lets me feel good about
myself."
|
On this photo, taken recently
on Rosh Hashanah, it is not a foreign driver,
who is viewing "my" Highway 6-South, while driving across
a bridge,
but my son, with whom I do the same work, only much more cautiously...
Noted the next day:
Usually I don't follow up on how or if
my daily desire is becoming fulfilled.
Though there are striking assertions of the "effectiveness"
of this "method",
I am still very much in the beginning of understanding Abraham's message.
But the hiking experience was so great, that I must report on it.
Dov, the Interior Designer,
I wasn't pleased with the fact, that his job on this day would be
at a Jewish settlement in Palestine, in the house of an Anglo-Saxon
family.
But I chose to praise him for having chosen such a satisfying profession.
"The art of it is satisfying, yes,
but the people I have to deal with..."
"Perhaps they argue with you about what they want and don't want,
because devicing a house is a rare chance to let out their creativity"
"This would be fine,
but my clients throw bombs or shit at me, always knowing better
and he came down with an avalanche of complaints against Israeli Jews.
This would be a good day, because his clients were polite Anglo-Saxons!
This example of "good" clients gave me the idea for my fervent
advice:
"Whenever cursing thoughts pollute
your mind and soul,
you will focus on the desire to attract the kind of clients,
with whom to work will be fun and full-fill-ment for you."
He came with the argument, that then he wouldn't make a living.
I became even more ardent in my words and facial movements:
"Dov, this is why you met me!(one
doesn't just meet ME!:
from now on you will focus on the desire to attract the kind of clients,
with whom to work will be fun, and the money you'll need will come!"
With this expressed desire of mine I got
out of Dov's car, leaving him gasping!
Shlomit Schweitzer from Lod, working
for the NGO Yad Sarah
As if I had deserved a price, my next two drivers were happy with their
work.
When on that Highway fork a car stopped, I opened the door by exclaiming:
"how wonderful - a woman! [out
of 10 drivers who pick me up only one is a woman!]
and a religious woman!"
She smiled and then confessed:
"On the previous fork- to Jerusalem- I saw you, a white-haired
woman,
and since I work with old people, among them many with Altzheimer,
I reported to the police......................., but now a see, you
are young."
"But if you went to Jerusalem, how come you find me again on this
fork?"
"I only had to take equipment from someone not far on that other
road,
but I'm headed to Beersheva - I work for "Yad Sarah" as you
can see."
How strange, that she had to meet me twice,
and this in order to be praised!!!
For the kind of work she does - and what she radiates! - is exalting
my heart!
Yad Sarah is known for the equipment it lends out, like a stick to me
in Jan.2006,
but the main work, according to Shlomit, is the interaction with people
in need.
"I'm in love with the population of
the elderly!" exclaimed Shlomit.
There are volunteers who visit an aged or handicapped person once a
week.
Shlomit works with the coordinators
of the volunteers!
"In your town Arad there is a wonderful
coordinator, Maya Simchi!"
I had told her of my desire concerning Tzippi's mother (see
Desire Oct. 9-10)
so when I got out at Lehavim, she gave me Maya's phone as well as her
own.
The farmer from the
religious Kibbutz Alumim
This time I had to walk for half an hour,
and since it was not a highway, and walking allowed, I was enjoying
it.
My driver was a quiete man of 63, with a wrinkled, sunburnt face.
First I learnt something from him about agricultural premises in Israel.
"Alumim" made a deal with a neighboring Kibbutz, Shomria,
concerning water.
["Following the implementation
of the
Gaza disengagement plan,
60 families from the former settlement of Bnei Atzmon moved to Shomria"]
I asked, "why did you need more water
than is allotted to you?"
"Because of our appetite!"
he said. Was it meant to be cynical?
So Alumim was given a piece of land near Omer,
which "belongs" to Shomriya.
On that land - far from Alumim- my driver's kibbutz grows carrots,
and he was on his way to check, how the newly sown plants were doing.
"You seem to love your work!"
I ventured. "Yes!"
he said strongly.
"I don't think one can work in agriculture,
with all the hazards and difficulties
if one doesn't love working the soil."
October
20, evening – October 21, morning, Wednesday,
2009
at Arad , alone in my castle, with the "surprise"
that my desire (tshuqati) on
Oct.10-11,
that the cockroaches (tshuqim) will find their 'right place '
still waits to be fulfilled:
During my absence from the newly painted, sprayed and ordered house
the cockroaches had celebrated and multiplied almost more than before.
MY DESIRE
TODAY
This time my extermination
of the cockroaches was sharp and accurate
though " even before Abraham" I knew that "what
you resist, persists".
My d e s i r e i s
t o u n d e r s t a n d ,
a) Did the cockroaches stay because they have a message for me?
b) Is there a symbolic connection between the cockroaches in my
personal life
and the sequence of events in my personal life since
October 7,
which bring up my grief about the
extermination of human beings
as if they had been cockroaches ?
|
In addition to some 50 alive insects I found these "ashes"
on the clean board under the sink
Again I emptied the cupboards under and next to the sink, but this time
sprayed 3 times
with a much stronger "exterminator of cockroaches" than on
October 8
and let the ventilator run with full power for 18 hours, before I put
the things back.
Today's e-mail quote - Abraham 2003
You're always getting a perfect vibrational match
to what you predominantly give your attention to.
But you've got to make the best of it.
You've got to vibrate slightly different from where you are
if you are going to improve where you are.
You can't keep taking score of where ... your relationship is,
or your body is, without continuing to create it as it
is.
To make improvement, you've got to reach for a different thought.

October
21, evening – October 22, morning, Thursday,
2009
at Arad , alone in my castle
MY DESIRE TODAY
My desire is to be an INSPIRATION
for my daughter-in-love who always sees black
to become more aware of her choice ~ to replace a black prophecy
by "a loving-feeling-thought"
,
like a thanksgiving or
an appreciation,
which will bring her closer to what she wants & remove her
from what she doesn't.

This composition of "the family
around Mika" (2008) includes photos of Immanuel and Efrat,
which they found no longer fitting, when they moved flat. So they took
new shots of each other,
which my pilot-son - when now in Bangkok - had let make into this kind
of images, as in 2008.
but alas, Efrat's photo (here also in the wrong place, looking
up to her stepson instead to Mika!)
was "dark" - which in my eyes added a pretty contrast to the
composition, but only in my eyes..
October
22, evening – October 23, morning, Friday,
2009
at Arad , alone in my castle
Today Micha sent an e-mail to all family members,
announcing
that he resigned from his frustrating job at "Applied
Materials",
and that he will take a break after 14 years of intense work.
He closes with the words, which he repeated when I called him:
"I'm looking forward
with curiosity and optimism,
to see how I'll cope with inaction and new possibilities."
When
pondering, what picture of "Micha in the Desert" to choose,
I was stunned by the similarity between
"Micha driving my jeep to Succah in the Desert" in winter
1989-1990,
and the image, which I had chosen for October 19-20, 3 days ago:
"Micha viewing "my" Highway 6-South from a bridge"......
I bought that old jeep exactly 20 years ago, and Micha, then 23, gave
me some tips....
When
I tried to fall asleep at night ,
I pulled out one of my old paper cutting from the box next to
my bed.
It was from "Living
with Joy", a book given to me in 1993.
How surprised I was to read a teaching similar to that of "Abraham":
p 167: "So you will want to
make a decision, as you take a quantum leap,
to follow your inner guidance,
the inner urges of your feeling level,
of your soul.
There are two levels of reality.
In one your mind puts out a goal,
is very clear in its intent,
makes the decision to have it,
and commits your will.
The second level is the soul level;
from it the higher self goes out in all directions
and magnetizes you to the coincidences, people and events
that create what you want.
This happens beyond the level of the mind;
you must follow your inner urgings and guidance to join this
flow.
[see continuation tomorrow
- below]
I glanced, only
glanced at the website of "Living with Joy"
and that's what I read:
You are seeding the world
with new thoughtforms
Joy is an attitude.
It is the presence of love for self and others
Imagine yourself as part of a larger
group,
all coming together to explore consciousness,
to seed the universe with the new ideas that are coming.
These ideas are beliefs that the universe is friendly,
that it is abundant,
and that you can live in a state of joy and love.
As you contribute your higher thoughts
to the "general atmosphere,"
you are creating ideas
that will assist others in loving themselves more.
The 4th season of Alon
Gal's Reality Show Mishpakhah khoreget demonstrates
as the last season (see
my letter to Alon Gal in Dec. 2008)
how the reason for an awful financial situation is never the
lack of money,
but the lack of self-appreciation, of self-love.
And how Alon Gal makes people love themselves,
and the fact, that this is shown on TV "for entertainment",
is another sign of the beginning of "Heaven on Earth"!...

October
24, evening – October 25, morning, Sunday,
2009
at Arad , alone in my castle
Today's desire will appear further below - following my process towards
identifying it
When I felt driven to inform Immanuel
of a Chinese doc about Chinese culture,
he responded with informing me, that I didn't need to come for his next
flight,
from Wed. to Tuesday, since on the weekend Efrat's family would be with
her,
"and for the rest she will manage" (meaning: she will manage
without you).
In brackets he added what came down on me like a hammer:
"(Perhaps this will be the beginning
of a gradual process of liberation)"
I was aware right then and there
- of a huge gap between mind and feeling.
And in order to move, accept, heal and evolve the latter ~ I wrote a
letter ,
which later I decided NOT to send!
"Immanuel
How good that my letter
caused you to already inform me of your program.
Can you listen to my strong emotional reaction to your sentence;
"(perhaps this will
be the beginning of a gradual process of liberation)"
???
Remember that these are emotional reactions,
and that from there I'll quickly grow towards a new insight
concerning my task in the world in present time.
"Release right now?
Just when the
togetherness with Mika has become so adult?
Just when you returned
to live in Shoham for the third time,
a beautiful city, where kindergarden, pool and every
place is easy to reach,
a flat in an amazing neighborhood, my pretty room with a drawing place
for Mika
Shoham, where Yaacov works, which gives us a new chance
after 25 years...
Just when I'm wholly happy with my wanderings between my home and yours,
exactly now "I am no longer needed" ?
And again: "Remember
that these are emotional reactions,
and that from there I'll quickly grow towards a new insight
concerning my task in the world in the present time."
Imma
Oct. 17, 2009 - co-creation of a rainbow on Mika's old baby mattress,
in my new room
After having written and sculpted that letter I left
it in the "Draft" box,
and - already released of much of the pain - began sensing excitement,
excitement towards the unknown experiences which I felt lay ahead...
Before sleep I wrote my twofold desire by hand into my Desire-Diary.
Then ~ when I opened computer and Internet with morning blessings~
and glanced at new e-mails, I felt urged to read one letter right away
:
Cornelia from Germany, a volunteer hostess in "Succah
in the Desert",
had found me again recently, after 13 years~~~
The experience she told made me sob with joy and I responded instantly,
though my first work of the day "should" be the sculpting
of my desire.
"Da sitze ich am Morgen, 7:25 , vor dem Computer
und Deiner mail
und weine nicht nur, sondern schluchze, und es will gar kein Ende nehmen.
Wieder ein Zeichen fuer den Beginn des "Himmels auf Erden"!
Und ich schluchze...."
In a very difficult encounter with a class of "youth-at-risk",
Cornelia couldn't handle aggressivity any longer and fled, crying.
Remembering that "emotions
have to be moved physically",
she ran out to the meadows and wept and screamed, thinking:
"Yes, it is good!"
The next day she sat together with the class - 2 were missing, 6 were
present,
six pupils from five nations: Russia, Turkey, Germany, Portugal and
Kosovo.
"You cried, didn't you!" said one of them and Cornelia said:
"Yes, I did and I'll tell you how it was for me ~~~ and how we
are all vulnerable."
Her sharing encouraged the kids to share their own pain (and I, C-R,
cry again),
how they were beaten, even now at the age of 16, how their mothers were
beaten.
At the end of the lesson a girl drew an angel on the board
and said: "this is you!"
And Cornelia closes: "I was filled with joy
- and I knew this angel was you!"

<CorneliaMaas@
Liebe Rachel
Ich wollte Dir gerade antworten, da entdeckte ich Deinen
Brief, welche Freude! Ich hatte gerade zwei Stunden mit dir auf
deinen Seiten verbracht.
Ich beginne damit, was ich Dir gerade erzählen wollte, eine
Schulstunde in dieser Woche:
Es ist eine Klasse mit "verhaltensauffäligen" Schülern,
die aus anderen Schulen oder Unterstützungsprogrammen herausgefallen
sind und nun bei uns an der Schule eine (letzte?) Chance haben,
den Hauptschulabschluss zu schaffen. Von der EU wurden Gelder
bereit gestellt, um besondere Rahmenbedingungen zu ermöglichen,
kleine Klassen, Möbel für die Zimmergestaltung, einen
zusätzlichen Schulsozial-arbeiter~~~ Ich ging in das Zimmer
~~~ kurz: die Schüler verweigerten alles, beleidigten sich
gegenseitig und mich ~~~ ein Mädchen wurde wegen "nichts"
sehr aggressiv ~~~ alles, was so einen Schulalltag ausmacht, funktionierte
nicht mehr (Drei Lehrer weigern sich schon, diese Klassen überhaupt
zu unterrichten) - noch zwei weitere Konfrontationen, und ich
rannte weinend aus dem Klassenzimmer und suchte Hilfe bei den
zwei Schulsozialarbeitern. Sie trösteten mich und übernahmen
den Rest der Stunde, und ich wollte am nächsten Tag unbedingt
zwei Stunden, um mit den Jugendlichen zu reden. -
Jetzt kommt der Part, warum es mit Dir zu tun hat:
Ich hatte die Tage zuvor bei Dir gelesen, dass ich meine Tränen
nicht rechtfertigen oder bewerten muss (ich stimme Dir völlig
zu) und ich war deshalb nicht verzweifelt über die Situation,
sondern hilflos. Das gab mir auch den Mut, mich gleich am nächsten
Tag wieder der Situation zu stellen und ich hatte keine Angst
davor. Dafür danke ich Dir, Rachel. Ich denke, dass es ohne
die Vergegenwärtigung Deiner Gedanken anders gewesen wäre.
Nachmittags ging
ich hinaus über die Wiesen und weinte und schrie und dachte:
ja, es ist gut so.
Am nächsten Tag setzte ich mich mit der Klasse zusammen (sechs
waren da, zwei fehlten), und gleich sagte einer: "Gell, Sie
haben gestern geweint?" und ich sagte:"Ja, das habe
ich. Ich erzähle Euch jetzt, wie es für mich war ~~~"
Einer sagte: "Religionslehrer sind immer sensible Menschen"
und ich sagte:"Ich hoffe es. Nennen wir es mal: empfindsam.
Wir sind alle verletzlich und Ihr seid es auch ..."
Es wurde ein intensives Gespräch, wir hörten uns alle
sehr genau zu, sie erzählten wie sie als Kinder geschlagen
wurden, dass sie noch jetzt (mit 16 Jahren) geschla-gen werden,
sowohl Jungen wie Mädchen, dass ihre Mütter geschlagen
werden. Es waren sechs Personen und 5 Nationen: Russland, Türkei,
Deutschland, Portugal, Kosovo. Am Ende der Stunde malte ein Mädchen
einen Engel an die Tafel und sagte: "Das sind Sie."
Ich freute mich so sehr - und ich wusste auch: Dieser Engel warst
Du! |
Of course, it wasn't me who was the angel, it was Cornelia
herself,
who had matured and opened up to use me as the sounding-board of her
Inner Being.
My joy was about the confirmation,
that a desire - propelled like a rocket over and over and over again
- for decades
does begin to manifest,
the desire, that these six kids, these colors
of the One Rainbow, will love themselves
And this great joy helped me to quickly
sculpt today's desire in both languages:
MY DESIRE
TODAY
This 3-line sculpture is perfect in puns
and rhymes and can not really be translated.
"Release - dismissal!"
screamed my feeling when reacting to my son's letter.
Therefore:
My desire with all my heart is that Efrat may be free from depending
on me!
My desire is also~~ that I myself be free towards whatever comes
towards me.
[Looking
at the last photos now - Oct. 29 - I regret having been
so stingy with photographing...)

While preparing breakfast, I listened as usual to an old
casette of mine.
"By chance" it was the channeling of 1988, which I mentioned
above.
In the passage on which the tape opened, it was explained,
how frustrated I had been all my life, because I could not "motivate"
people,
and because I did not accept, that others did choose to have the experience
of not really living (in my words today: of experiencing zest and full-fill-ment).
It was said, that I should choose "a more mundane, non-spectacular
activity".
Well, when towards the end of 2006 I began my assignment at Shoham,
I seemed - for some people - to have forgotten my spectacular visions,
and resigned myself to playing grandma for the last of my ten grandkids.
The "purpose" of this - over almost 3 years more and more
fulfilling task - was,
that my daughter-in-love
could not cope with being alone with 1
year old Mika
while her husband, the father of Mika and 3 older children, was on long
flights.
She had been traumatized twice during the previous 12 months,
first by Mika's birth (Dec.20, 2005) - a birth after 6 years of trying
to get pregnant -
which was accompanied by severe, not immediately identified post-natal
depression,
and then by that
almost fatal accident on July 6, a week before the
2nd Lebanon war,
with its painful aftermath for Mika and Efrat.
It was not until 4 months later, in November, that Efrat could use her
hands again...
When, on Dec.23, 2006, they moved from the Galilee to Shoham, near the
airport,
a move so vital for her pilot husband, and so fiercely resisted by Efrat
(born in Acco),
there was another threat in the air for my daughter-in-love-
that Immanuel would get custody for his son Tomer, for which he had
fought so hard.
How wondrous, that I was free, outside and inside, to be simply, lovingly
PRESENT!
This is an opportunity to
"fill in" "Abraham" concerning "right timing".
I guess, that "Abraham" talks to a different audience than
Godchannel.
"People have to be taught small steps to turn
their lives around!"
was the channeled message which I received in October 1988.
But as to desires concerning other people or peoples or Creation,
so much evolution in so many areas has to take place,
and when I don't see my desires manifested,
despite whole, entire, total feeling-thinking focus on what I want,
I must come back to myself and ask,
with what good-feeling-thought can I speed up evolution?
As to my Vision about Peace-through-Desert-Hosting-Economy,
compatible with the Desert's Resources of SPS-Space, Purity, Silence,
as contrasted to crowdedness, pollution, noise in populated areas,
I had to understand, that I was to do all the R, the Research,
but as to the D,"Development", I was only to create different
models:
Succah in the Desert, the Pyramidion, RedSeaPartnerSHIP, Noah's Shore,
and my last model around "the Cave of the Womb" in the Zealots'
Valley.
In January 2006 I was made to understand - through a Body "problem"
-
that not only were those Bedouin with their self-and mutual hatred not
ready,
- I myself was still oozing tiny poisonous drops of victimhood and judgments.
This had nothing to do with my desire, which I believe was absolutely
pure
and in total alignment with "Who-I-Really-Am", my loving HIgher
Self.
The non-manifestation had and has to do with the probable result of
a manifestation:
in a global as local environment of overwhelming denial of "The
Mother"
the "reversals" of any success would have been certain.
It is Orin who channeled "Living with Joy" --
continued the passage above -
who pertains to the time factor which I miss in "Abraham":
YOU CAN CHOOSE
HOW QUICKLY
YOU WISH IT TO HAPPEN
To make the time between asking for
what you want and receiving it shorter,
begin by getting clear on your goals.
Some of you are so nonspecific
that your minds wander around,
never making clear requests to your souls
and so your souls spend much time guiding your minds
to get clear about what you want.
The more accurately and precisely you can state what you want
in any area of your life...
the more rapidly you will have it.
You may not get it in the precise form you asked for,
but your soul will create for you the essence of what you want.
In being precise, you are formulating essence.
Essence is the growth that you are going for in any quantum leap,
and I would suggest
that you take anything you have requested and ask,
"What is the essence of it?"
If you look at what you have tried to create, you will see
that you have always gotten the essence
of everything you asked for.
For instance, if you wished
for a loving relationship,
you may have wanted simply to feel loved.
Your soul may give you love in many ways,
perhaps through a close friend, child or pet,
perhaps through a job promotion, or in any of the ways you accept
love.
If you want to create a more
fit body,
the essence you want may be more self-love.
If you are willing to go for essence in your quantum leaps,
you will be able to create them far more rapidly.
If you are tempted to go
back into the past and say,
"Well' I wanted this, but I did not get it",
look at the core, at the essence,
of what you requested.
I would say you have gotten it in many ways.
The soul is quite creative
in interpreting your request.
The soul has to be creative,
for the mind is fairly narrow in its ability to ask.
The soul takes any request for growth
and expands it in every direction it can.

Quotes
from Abraham's newest book,
The Vortex,
Where the Law of Attraction
Assembles All Cooperative Relationships
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.168-169
Show them the processes
you have learned
that cause you to feel better;
and apply them often, and openly,
until you are very adept at moving inside your Vortex
whenever you choose.
If you pretend to be happy when you are not,
or confident when you are afraid,
you only cause confusion in your children.
Show them, through the clarity of your deliberate example,
how well your life goes
when you deliberately manage the Vibrational gap
between the two Vibrational aspects of you.
Let them know that you want to feel good,
and demonstrate to them that you can feel good
whenever you choose,
regardless of what is occurring around you.
And most important of all, let your children understand
that you do not hold them, or their behavior,
responsible for the way you feel.
Free them of the impossible bondage of needing to please you
- and, in doing so,
release them to their own wonderful Guidance System.
Questioner:
but that I was a victim of two parents who were out of control.
Abraham:
While the therapist did not want you to
feel blame for happened to you,
it is really of no greater value to you
to put the blame upon your parents,
because whether you are feeling blame or guilt,
[see Godchannel's message that "guilt
and blame are the same"]
you are still outside of your Vortex;
you are still not in alignment with who-you are.
There is no more destructive conclusion to come to
than the belief that you are a victim
and that others have the power
to inflict pain and suffering upon you.
...
Your parents did not hit you because you were bad.
And your parents did not hit you because they were bad.
Your parents hit you because they were out of alignment,
and because they felt powerless.
It is not illogical - in fact it is extremely logical -
for a person to go from a feeling of powerlessness
to a feeling of revenge or anger,
because that is a step
toward alignment on the Vibrational Scale.
In other words,
a feeling of powerlessness,
is the emotion that indicates
the greates distance from the Vortex of who-you-really-are.
... anger is closer...
and frustration is much closer to who-you-really-are.
Hope is a great deal closer to who-you-really-are,
and now you are almost there;
you are almost inside the Vortex.
Belief in Well-Being
and knowledge of Well-Being
are inside the Vortex,
along with appreciation and love and passion
and eagerness
and all good-feeling emotions.
...
The same thing was true of your
parents.
Undoubtedly there were unwanted things going on in their lives
that they had a difficult time ignoring,
which caused them to be pulled into more and more unwanted situations.
It is a sort of chain-of-pain that develops
as someone is unhappy (and often justifiably so),
so he or she lashes out at another,
who lashes out at another,
who lashes out at another ~~~
Most people involved in the chain-of-pain,
whether they are children or adults,
come to the conclusion, from the uncomfortable life that they are living,
that they are not worthy
and that good things do not come to them.
And because they feel that way - that is what happens.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.170-172
Only when you are willing to find a thought,
any thought that brings you a feeling of relief
can you begin your trek up the Emotional Scale
in the direction of the love and appreciation
that represents who-you-really-are.
And only from inside the Vortex can you fully appreciate
the experience and the expansion,
and the understanding, that it has given you.
Most people believe that what they are looking
for is someone to love them,
and they also believe that it is the responsibility fo their parents
to love them.
But parents in despair, far from their Vortices of well-Being,
have no love to give.
And so, the child assumes he is not loved because
something is wrong with him,
rather than understanding he is not being loved by his parents
because they are out of alignment with love.
Again, we must say that
humans are looking for love in all the wrong places.
Look to your Vortex;
look to the expanded you;
look to your Source;
look to the resource of Love.
It is always there for you,
but you must find Vibrational alignment with it, within you.
You must tune your Vibrational frequency to that of love -
and your Vortex will envelop you - and you will be surrounded by love.
Questioner: But how do you attract terrible experiences
when you are only nine months old?
Even though you are only nine months old
in your physical body,
you are a very old and wise creator focused in that baby's body.
And you came with powerful intentions to experience contrast
and to launch clear rockets of desire into your Vibrational Reality
for the purpose of expansion.
People often assume that
because a child is not yet offering words,
the child could not be the creator of its own experience,
but it is our promise to you
that no one else is creating your experience.
Children emanate Vibrations
- which are the reason for what they attract -
even from their time of birth.
Most children are born into situations
that do not challenge their natural tendency
to remain aligned with their own Vortices.
Most children are not influenced out of their Vortices
by those who surround them
in the early days of their physical experience.
But sometimes,
when you have come into the physical experience
with a powerful intention
to teach Well-Being,
you intended, even before your birth,
to have early exposure to contrast
that would stimulate your desire early on in your physical experrience,
because you understood the power of the asking
that would come out of that experience.
When you really know what you do not want,
you ask with greater clarity for what you do want -
and your Vortex expands more rapidly as a result.
....
...as you look fore more reasons to feel
good ...
....as you move into your Vortex...
... when you merge with the evolved, expanded part of you...
you will harbor no ill will toward anyone who helped you achieve
that.
In fact, you will stand in appreciation for the part they played
in your joyous expansion.
Jerry:
What would cause a child to be born with an unwanted physical condition?
For instance, there seems to be an almost epidemic number of children
being born with the condition called autism.
At what point before its birth could a baby be thinking thoughts of
lack?
From your physical perspective,
you often do not remember the immense value of contrast and difference,
while from your Non-Physical perspective before your birth,
it is often a very big factor in the choices that you make.
Many parents and teachers who have forgotten the value of contrast and
differences
have a powerful desire that their children "fit in",
which has resulted in a truly troubling epidemic of conformity.
And so,
many Beings come into the physical experience
with an express intention of being different enough
that they cannot be controlled into conformity.
All Non-Physical Beings coming forth into the physical experience
are clear and eager and sure,
and they never come from a position of lack.
No exceptions.

Creating Positive Parent/Child Relationships in a World of Contrast)
PART V
SELF-APPRECIATION
and The Law of Attraction:
APPRECIATION,
the "Magical" Key to Your Vortex
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.175
We have very much enjoyed
our interaction with you
in presenting our knowledge of the universe,
of the Laws of the Universe,
and of the important part that you play.
Always, our primary intention
as we interact with our physical human friends
is to help you remember who you actually are
so that you may experience the fullness of the appreciation
for your part in this joyous, Eternal, Universal creation.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.176
It is an important dance
that we dacne with one another
as we dialogue back and forth between physical perspective
and non-Physical perspective,
because both perspecties are integral to the whole.
Both the perspectives of physical and of Non-Physical
are essential to our Eternal expansion,
but the most significant understanding that we are presenting in this
book,
and the most important knowledge that you will ever acquire,
is about the integration of those two
Vibrational vantage points.
When people observe
the wonder of their galaxy and planet
and speculate that it was somehow
set into motion by Non-Physical forces,
... essentially accurate;
Your physical world is an extension of Non-Physical Energy and creation.
Everything that you now behold
was created from the conscious attention of Source Energy.
The story of the creation
of you and your world
is not a story of something that happened-
but a story of something that is happening.
The Source Energy that created your world
continues to flow forth to you and thrugh you
for the continuation of creation
and for the expansion of the Universe.
Often Humans, in their humility, refuse to accept
their important role in the continuing expansion of All-That-Is,
and that is the reason why we are offering this book.
It is our desire to awaken within you the memory
of who-you-really-are and of why you are here.
We want to help you return to the knowledge of your creative
ability;
we want you to reap the benefits of the important work
you are doing in your physical bodies,
we want you to return to the Vortex.
Your physical exposure to your physical world
is providing the contrast
that is necessary for you
to form your opinions and desires about how life could be improved.
And even though you cannot see them, and are often unaware of them,
your desires for improvement shoot out from you
as Vibrational rockets,
or messengers of request.
They shoot out into the Vibrational atmosphere in the same way
that the original rockets that created your planet were sent;
and they are received by the Source of the Energy that creates worlds,
the same Source Energy that is the origin of All-That-Is.
And those ideas, requests, and desires are understood;
and - in the moment of their launch - they are answered.
Most people have neither an awareness
of the launching of the rockets
nor of the receiving and answering by Source,
but even so, powerful new creation is begun.
...
in the living of physical life
and in the launching of those rockets of desired expansion,
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.177
it is not only an expanded world you are creating -
it is an expanded you.
As you observe sickness in yourself or in another,
you set forth a new Vibrational request for wellness
that is received and answered by Source.
When the contrast of your physical world
reveals to you corruption or injustice,
you set forth a new Vibrational request for fairness and justice.
When someone is rude to you,
your rocket asks for nicer experiences.
When you do not have enough financial resources,
your rocket asks for more.
And with each request offered all day, every day,
a Vibrational Escrow, or Vibration Reality, is forming.
The Broader Non-Physical part of you,
the part of you that existed even before your birth,
the part of you that exists in the Non-Physical
even while focused in physical -
the Source within you (your Inner Being)-
not only answers your request for improvement,
but becomes it.
People often have a difficult time conceptualizing a creator,
or a force,
or the process
through which something as amazing as your planet,
spinning in its orbit in perfect proximity to other planets,
could have come to be.
And yet, ... you are - every one of you -
continuing to add to the expansion of all of that
through your living of life
and the launching of rockets into the Vibrational Reality
that will someday be fully realized by physical inhabitants.
We have written this book
because we want to call your attention to the Vibrational Reality
that you are in the process of creating.
We want you to be aware of your Vortex of Creation
and most important of all,
we want you to find a way,
by the deliberate directing
of your own conscious thought,
to become a Vibrational Match
to the contents of your swirling Vibrational Vortex of Creation,
because every desire tht has been born within you thus far exists there,
just as you have dreamed it to be,
waiting for your alignment.
[It is not only a matter of my alignment!
See below, in the left frame, on October 25-26]
Everything that you see
that is now physical, tangible, visible, audible reality
was previously swirling in a Vibrational Vortex of Creation;
.....
as that older, larger, wiser part of you focuses purely upon your request,
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.178
holding no resistance whatsoever,
the ... Law of Attraction responds.
And then , all cooperative components
(all components with same Vibrational frequency)
are drawn into this swirling Vibrational Reality,
this precursor to the physical reality that is now available to you.
Only one thing is necessary for this Vibrational Reality
to become real in a physical sense,
manifested into things and experiences
that you can see and hear and smell and taste and touch:
you have to go into the Vortex!
When your husband, in his frustration, yells at you,
and yo are reeling in the absence of love that he is currently showing
you,
you launch a rocket of desire
to be respected, to be loved;
for a mate, who feels better,
for a mate who loves you.
And click, click, click, click,
those requests are received and integrated
into your Vibrational Vortex of Creation.
And now, the Law of Attraction responds to this swirling creation,
drawing in all cooperative components -
and your newly amended creative Vortex expands.
But there is a very important question that you may want to consider:
Are you,
right now,
a cooperative component?
Are you in the Vortex?
* If you are still reeling in discomfort from your mate's verbal abuse-
you are not in the Vortex.
* If you are telling your girlfriend about what happened,
defending your innocence in the whole affair -
you are not in the Vortex.
* If you are longing for the time when he treated you better-
you are not in the Vortex.
* If you are letting it go
and remembering how you felt when you decided to marry him -
you are in the Vortex.
* If you are not taking his outburst personally
and are focused upon other positive aspects of your experience -
you are in the Vortex.
...
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.179
A simple way to understand the Vortex is this:
* Before your birth into this physical body,
you were in the vortex (no resistant thought resides there).
* A part of the Consciousness that was you
is now focused into the physical you that you know as you.
* The contrast of your life causes you
to send rockets of expansion into your Vortex,
where the larger Non-Physical part of you exists.
* The Vortex,
which holds only your positive requests for improvement and expansion,
holds no thoughts that contradict improvement and expansion.
* The Law of Attraction
responds to the pure, nonresistant Vibration of your Vortex
and gathers all cooperative, Vibrational-matching components
that are necessary for the completion of the creation.
* YOu are one of the components of your creation.
* in fact, you are the creation.
*So the only question is:
Are you,
from your physical format,
right now,
a Vibrational Match to yur creation?
Or not?
* And the way you feel,
right now,
as you focus upon the subject of creation ,
is your answer.
* If you are angry -
you are not a Vibrational Match -
and you are not in the Vortex.
[Again!!! "Abraham's teaching " has
to be filled-in:
Anger and all "negative" feeling
have to be accepted, vibrated
physically and then evolved!]
* If you are feeling appreciation
(as I've expressed, for instance,on
each page of the 365 days of Song-Game 2007
and all other pages of "InteGRATion
into GRATe-FULL-ness" 2007:
you are a Vibrational Match-
and you are in the Vortex.
[The following passage is in
italics and underlined in the original:]
The key to getting inside your Vibrational Vortex of Creation,
of experiencing the absolue absence of resistance,
of achieving complete alignment
with all that you have become
and all that you desire,
and of bringing to your physical experience everything that you desire
-
is being in the state of appreciation.
And there is no more important object of attention
to which you must flow your appreciation
than that of self.
The habit of thought, or belief,
that holds most people outside of their Vortex of Creation,
more than all other thoughts put together,
is the lack of appreciation of self.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.180-181
Why Would Someone Lose Self-Confidence?
............................
The
reason why the bravado that you are born with usually fades
is because you allow yourself to become distracted from your Vortex.
You allow others to convince you
that it is more important to you
to pay attention to how they feel than how you feel.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.182-183
What Is a First Step Toward Self-Appreciation?
{I've dealt with this question ever since I came to understand
"Cain
& Abel", this immensely informative Biblical metaphor,
which was just now the pretext for Cornelia Maas,
see left frame, Oct. 25-26
to finally search for me.
She had re-studied the booklet (lost to ME!)
of my lecture in Germany 1985.
Jerry gives many examples of how family and teachers in his childhood
and youth either "deflated, humbled, embarrassed, belittled him",
or "uplifted him tremendously".
"But .... we don't need to look for others to uplift us or give
us self-confidence,
although it does help.
We can find it directly in ourselves, no matter what's going on around
us, right?"
You have just pointed out, through the examples in
your own life,
the problem with looking to others for yur upliftment.
Those who were in a state of appreciation -
and therefore wee in alignment with Source;
with their Vortex;
with the Pure, Positive Energy that creates worlds -
as they held you as your object of attention,
you felt the advantage of their gaze.
But when those not in their Vortex.....
Your vortex of Creation, the Source within you (your Inner Being),
is undeviating and dependable.
When you make your way to your Vortex of Creation through the thoughts
that you choose -
you will always be replenished.
A balanced, good-feeling life requires
that you return often to drink from the Source.
Jerry asks if "competion" is
helpful or unhelpful and tells,
how - after much competing in diving (my
association to dead Nir Rak),
juggling and other talents and abilities, he pulled
himself away
I liked winning, but I didn't like losing;
and I didn't really enjoy others' losing, even when I was winning.
You have deliberately positioned yourself in this time-space
reality
filled with variety and contrast
because you enjoy the stimulation of thought that it provides.
The key to effectively utilizing
the variety or competition of ideas and experiences that surrounds you
is to use it to stimulate your desire,
but then once your desire has been formulated
and your rockets have been launched into your Vortex,
to now turn your undivided attention to you
and your thought-by-thought relationship with your own vortex.
Once your rockets have been launched,
the physical competition has served its purpose for you.
In other words,
competition is a tremendous impetus
to Step One of your Creative Process,
but it is a tremendous hindrance
to Step Three of your Creative Process.
Jerry: Aren't you speaking more of comparison
than competition?
Competition is just an advanced version of comparison.
... there is never an ending to the game,
for there will always be another combination of contrast
that will cause you to launch another rocket of desire.
Therefore, you will always have the fun of moving towars your Vortex;
of closing the Vibrational gap;
and of experiencing, in detail, your newly launched expansion.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.187
Some offer
criticism
because we place such emphasis on the value of your feeling
good,
accusing us of teaching selfishness.
And we acknowledge
that true selfishness is at the very core of our teaching,
because if you are not selfish enough,
if you do not care how you feel,
if you are not willing to continually redirect your thoughts
in the direction of feeling good,
you cannot come into alignment with the Source within you.
And unless you are n alignment with the Source within you,
you have nothing to give another.
(see
the last stanza of my song: "she's a ray of the sun")
Alignment with Source -
being inside your Vortex of Creation,
becoming one with the true expanded version of you -
is the ultimate selfishness.
And yes, in that state of alignment,
all good things must com to you.
Every rocket of desire that you have launched will be fulfilled.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.188-189
True success
is not the attainment of things,
or the achievement of tasks,
or the achievement of financial abundance.
True success is the coming into alignment with You.
Yes, selfishly aligning with your desires,
your clarity,
your confidence,
your knowledge,
your love
- with Yourself!
....
Jerry: Well, this philosophy
clearly is
about the value of our feeling good.
Can you guide us on how to feel good/
Can you give us a process or a technique
to feel good about ourselves?
Speak to us about
how we can deliberately acquire self-appreciation.
The ultimate in
self-appreciation
is the allowing of yourself
to be in Vibrational alignment with Source,
with the expanded you inside your Vortex,
and it is not necessary
that you focus upon yourself in order to do that.
In fact, for most people, especially in the beginning,
it is easier for you to find alignment
while focusing on many other things, other than you.
Over time, you have developed many opinions and attitudes,
and habits of thoughts - or beliefs about yourself -
that when activated
hold you outside of the Vortex.
And so, it is easier to get inside the Vortex
by focusïng upon other subjects
that are easier for you to feel good about.
For example, you could think about your favorite pet,
and in your appreciation of that pet,
you may move right into the Vortex
bccause you do not hold resistant thoughts of envy or blame of guilt
toward your pet.
We would really like you to see
that when you are thinking about your cat -
or anything that holds no resistance to your Vortex,
and so you flow easilyinside -
you are then joined
(or better stated, you have allowed yourself to merge)
with the whole of that whch you are.
We would call that the ultimate self-appreciation,
even though you were not thinking about you
in order to accomplish it.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.190
As people stand amidst the contrast of their physical lives,
they often wonder,
What is my purpose for life? Why am I here?
and we want you to know that you deliberately came
to enjoy your exploration of the contrat of your time-space reality
because you knew that it would inspire new ideas and desires,
and that it was, in fact, the foundation for expansion.
It is our expectation that, through the reading of this book,
you now have a clearer understanding
of how you, in yur physical body,
fit into the larger picture of creation
and the important role you play, from your physical format,
in that larger picture.
We are most eager about helping you remember
that even though you are powerfully focused
into your physical body,
in your physical reality
at this time,
you - and we - are creating a Vibrational Reality
that holds the promise of your future manifestations.
And the amount of time that will expire
before you begin to see and experience those desired manifestations
is only the amount of time that it takes you to get into your Vortex.
Your moods and attitudes and emotions
are your indicators of your proximity to your Vortex,
to your Vibrational Reality,
to everything that you desire,
and to all that you have become.
[See what I say about "time" in the left frame of Oct. 25-26]
... As we conclude this book,
we are going to offer a handful of very simple processes
that, if consistently applied, will help you achieve
a gradual but steady alignment
with the Energy-that-is-really-you,
and will assure your entry into your Vortex;
and once you are consistently there-
your physical life will be transformed.
Abraham/Hicks:
The Vortex p.191
Some Processes to Get into the Vortex
It
is not necessary to deliberately apply these, or any processes
in order to raise your Vibration and get into the Vortex.
Many people move easily into the Vortex
simply because they like feeling good
and consisently offer thoughts that do feel good....
But if you are like most people
who are observing the world around you,
you have probably developed patterns of thought
that do not serve you,
and that hold you -
whle you may be unaware of it -
ouside the Vortex.
When you have a belief about something
(a belief is only a thought you keep thinking)
and you think about it often,
and therefore keep it active in your Vibration,
the Law of Attraction simply brings you evidence to support
it
(because you get what you think about,
whether it is something that you want or something you don't want).
And without making a decision
to do something about changing the pattern of Vibration
that is contained within those beliefs,
nothing can change in your experience...
And so, the following processes are offered
to help you release resistance
and to provide an inevitable path into your Vortex
The Vortex P. 191~~~ Some
Processes to Get into the Vortex
[It
is exciting to quote these processes in another wording,
though I'm highly trained in feeling grate-full in each moment,
as exemplified, for instance,
in my song: I breathe and enjoy...
I've dedicated an entire year - 2007- to the training in
InteGRATing
into GRATE-FULL-ness
and in 2008, the year of "K.is.s.-Log", I began each
day
by thinking -not only in bed - for what I am grate-full NOW,
but by sculpting my hodayot (thanksgivings) on this website
as I phrased
in the intro to "K.is.s.-Log"
From January 8, 2008 onward a page will begin with
"image of the day"
and with a double Thanksgiving,
first to my Body, my Partner,
second to people, circumstances or
things.

A Bedtime-Visualization Process
Tonight, as you lie in your bed,
focus your attention on the best-feeling things you can find.
Draw your thoughts inward,
away from any overwhelming details of your day,
and feel the ease that occurs when you focus up close to where you are.
Think, in detail, about your bed:
its comfort, the feel of the bedding.
Think about the relationship of your body to the mattress,
and imagine the mattress floating or your body being absorbed n it ~~~
Relax and breathe, and enjoy the comfort of your bed.
Say things such as:
I like this. This is a good thing. I have a good life.
and sleep.
When
you Find Yourself Awake
When you awaken in the morning,
deliberately stay in your bed with your eyes closed for five minutes
or so,
with the intention of basking in the most pleasant things you can bring
to mind~~~
During your slumber,
you have released all resistance,
and if you do not activate it now, it will not come up.
So this extra five minutes in bed is for the purpose of allowing your
naturally higher Vibration to get a strong foothold~~~
Find pleasure in your thughts,
and hold them in that pleasant place as long as possible.
And, in the moment that the slightest uneasiness surfaces,
breathe deeply
(which means "vibrate , move your emotion
in your body!")
focus back upon the comfort of your bed,
find something to appreciate-
and then get up to begin your day.
