Contrast & Lack (the wrong end of the stick)

[spiritualcookie]

The thing that we see that most commonly trips you up is that in the contrast - which is necessary and valuable to help you give birth to a rocket of desire -
often there is an activation of man kinds of jumbled Energy.

Usually, in order for you to know that you want something, you have to pretty well have chewed on details or events that have helped you know what you do NOT want.

In other words, when do you speak most clearly about wanting to be well?
Usually when you are less than well, correct?

When does your strongest desire for money really kick into high gear?
Most likely when there is not enough money.

When you are confused, that is when you want more clarity right?

When you are overwhelmed, isn't that when you want more serenity?

And when you are bored, isn't that when you want more stimulation?

Make peace with the Contrast!

You are continually asking.
You cannot stop asking;
Contrast is evoking the desire from you.

Your real work is to find a way to be in the receiving mode.

Monster Bus Problems Bring What Is Wanted
(Even masters as Esther need "contrast" to find clarity, sometimes!)


Now, Jerry and Esther for the first ten years of their work, they flew. They were on an airplane every Friday and every Monday and uh -spending a lot of time in airports and -a little bit of time at home -more, than they are now. But then one day after sort of growing tired of spending so much time at airports, Jerry and Esther considered these motor homes or busses. And Esther said to Jerry, "if we had a motor home, in five minutes we would be home. Instead of the all-day flight that it's going to take from LaGuardia back to San Antonio."

And so, for the next ten years, they've been driving busses. And -now they've come to the place where the bus feels like more responsibility than they really need to be dragging around with them. When they first began traveling in the bus they had big equipment, that they were using for sound conversion, and now everything's digital. The office is not sending them boxes of paperwork: Everything's coming electronically. So, they've paired things down they really don't need, except for Esther's clothes -a great big bus with a lot of big closets. And so they've been talking about releasing the bus and traveling differently, and doing some flying and and moving about in a SUV.

But Esther especially had very mixed energy about it. She loves that bus! She loves being in the bus, she loves driving the bus... And so she could not come to a decision. And what she wanted more than anything, was to be decisive. Now, Jerry had already brought himself to a place of ease about it. He had decided that life would be better and they would have more fun and have more time for themselves and less time moving in and out of RV parks. In other words Jerry came to the conclusion quite easily. But Jerry is a mere passenger in the bus. Esther is the pilot of the bus!

In other words, the bus has more meaning to Esther.
It has been her friend, while Jerry has been sleeping. -So, Esther had mixed feelings about it, and what she wanted was to become decisive. She wanted a decision to formulate within her, that was as powerful as the decision that had formulated within Jerry. And such an interesting thing happened: In the last one thousand miles of moving that bus back to Coburg, where they will leave it; the bus had four break-downs.

Never before has the bus broken down! Four things, that left them off, on the side of the road. But what it provided for Esther was clarity about that decision!

It provided clarity about the responsibility of all of those moving parts being with them, everywhere they go. And it brought her to a -a very easy personal consensus about the ease -In other words as much fun as it is the ease of releasing all of those moving parts. In other words, they just don’t need that much responsibility moving with them! Now there's not a right or a wrong answer in whether they should keep the bus, or whether they should release the bus. There's a not a right or wrong answet, but what there is:

-There is a Vortex version of them, that has been being created over time, that at one time that bus was a perfect answer to. That, at THIS time that bus is not a perfect answer to. But Esther was clinging to an old decision, and feeling uncomfortable, because new life was calling her to a place, that the old decision was not allowing her to go.

Are you following a bit? And then the magnificent, universal Law of Attraction yielded to Esther, what she most wanted. It was opportunity to come to clarity about what they wanted!

...So, we offer this example of what's going on with Jerry and Esther, because now Esther is no longer contradicted. In other words the -those poignant life experiences amplified, what she already knows, and what her Vortex is already calling her toward. But she wasn't ready to let go of that last resistance, until that last strong calling took place.

Often people say,
"I've wanted this for as long as I can remember.
Why hasn't it happened yet?"
Because they were not aware that every subject is really two subjects:
(1) What is wanted, and (2) the lack of it.

For example, they thought that because they were talking about money, they were talking about what they wanted,
when instead, they were focused on the opposite of what they wanted.

Only when you are sensitive to the way you FEEL do you really know what your vibrational content is.

With some practice, you will become very adept at always knowing exactly where you are focused.

The contrast of your time-space reality is extremely useful,
for contrast helps you focus your thoughts:
Whenever you know what you do not want,
you also know even more clearly
what you DO want. (...)
And so, the exposure to contrast sharpens your focus
and gives birth to new preference and desires.
In fact, this valuable contrast assures the eternal expansion of all That Is.

HS:
After about a three year hiatus of being at the live events and listening to the weekly CDs, I've come up with two things. I keep opening the CD and thinking my question is going to be in this CD. It's in all the CDs, but I can't quite get some of these things. Um... well, actually my first question has to do with um- the question- the evolution of the questions that have been discussed. At first it was a lot of "What about child molestation? What about The Holocaust? How this Law of Attraction doesn't work here or there"- and that seems to have dropped away...

Abe:
You know why? We never give a satisfying answer.

HS:
You never give a satisfying answer?

Abe:
Not to those questions. In other words, we never tell anybody what they really want to hear! In other words, we say "you create your own reality". Right. Period. And then, they say "well, what about bad things happening to other people?" And we say "they create their own reality." And they say "why would anyone create something they do not want to create??" And we say "because they don't know what they're doing. They are offering vibrations that they are not paying attention to."

HS:
I think, people eventually got that. Um- I kinda promised I wouldn't ask this question but I'm going to, anyhow.

Abe:
Who did you promise?

HS:
This is it. I've mentioned to people and they said, "oh, don't". Um- but this is a quick one.
Why do dogs risk getting bugs in their eyes, sticking their heads out of car windows?

Abe:
Well, tell your friends that you have asked the most profound question that has ever been asked! And you have given us an opportunity to give the answer, that we have been waiting a very long time to give. And that is:

Because the contrast of the bugs in the eye is a small price to pay for the exhilaration of that ride! And it is exactly the same way you felt, when you made the decision to come into this physical existence. It's exactly the way you felt when you knew there would be contrast, and you said:

The ride is going to be worth it.
