The Abe Forum

Our job is the Perceiving of the "Done", assembled Components/Essences
of the Vortex into specific, physical Experiences

We don't want to make it sound like it's already created!
We want you to understand, that you've created the Essence of it,
and now you get to bring it all the way home!

Now you get to PERCEIVE it into being.
That is the delicious part of Life experience!

Abraham Hicks

What is the "Receptive Mode"?

HS:
Thank you for the opportunity! My goal is to talk about turning it around faster when things start to go wrong. I appreciated that you just said, step five is not getting mad at yourself for having a step one moment. I was trying to make my christmas cards and hanukkah cards, and get them out timely, and things started intervening, and it seemed to snowball the way they intervened. And so I'm trying to figure out, well, what I could do differently?

Abe:
We're going to make a really strong statement here. And if you can hear it and practice it, you will find the magic in this not magic, but practical application of utilizing the laws of the Universe!

At whatever point that you recognize that the momentum feels like it's against you,
step away from it.

Back away from it. Set it aside. Turn it over to the Universe!
Give it to the Universe: Say something like "you know what I want! I've said it all in motion. Do your best with this! I'm out of here, for a little bit!"

Because you're the only one messing it up!

You've put it into the vortex, and the vortex is doing its job, and law of attraction is doing its job, and even more:
Source energy is all over it! And all kinds of cooperative components are coming into place. But there is a human tendency- Esther has it, too, to be in control of things. And it's in control of conditions, you see!

You don't want to try to be in control of conditions!
You want to be in control of your own vibration, and the conditions will follow.

So, when you're trying to be in control of conditions, and you can't control them- now your vibrations are all out of whack. And now, the Universe is responding to an out of whack vibration! Just relax!! Esther remembers watching someone in a big beautiful motor home. It was at least a million dollar bus: It was beautiful and shiny and new. And there was a big sign on this gate, that said: If you are longer than 40 feet, do not turn here. Make the loop all the way around! In other words, rather than turning from here where there wasn't enough room; go all the way around and you can get right out, well.

They didn't see the sign or whatever, and turned and scraped the whole side of their beautiful bus on the gate at this RV-park, and tore the gate right off of the track. An electric gate. And did thousands of dollars of damage to the side of their bus. The doors wouldn't even open, on the lower bins. It was a big thing, and Jerry and Esther stood there, and they didn't know what to say- because they were trying to flag them down. They were trying to get them not to turn there. -They couldn't stop it from happening, and then they witnessed what felt like a tragedy to them. And Esther was standing there, as the front door opened and a woman stepped out- it was a couple, and Esther said "oh, I'm so sorry about that!" she said: "It's just paint and metal! It's just paint and metal."

And Esther said: OH MY GOD!... she couldn't believe that this woman was so easy about something that looked so big and bad and awful to her! ..."Just paint and metal." Jerry said, he must do that a lot! She's adapted! (big laughter)

-But we would like all of you to ADAPT to things, happening!

And, so what! "Oh good! something else to create around!"
Since you are an eternal being, and there's never-ending wonderful things for you to focus upon, and be the steward of it, becoming a reality about- then is there really any reason to be upset about anything? Or to put unnecessary time restrictions on yourself, to get all bound up to measure yourself against... WHAT?

There's only one thing that you want to care about, and that's being in the receptive mode.

And not because of what it will yield you, but because how it feels when you're in the receptive mode! You could have an intention or a desire to amass quickly a million dollars, or more. And it's not likely that that's going to happen today. The condition of a million dollars being in your possession- it's unlikely that it's going to happen today.

BUT there is a vibrational version of that, that is highly likely!
-You could feel prosperous. You could feel abundant. You could feel free!
You could find the vibrational version of that. You could find the unconditional version of that.
You could have said: "I'm sending my well wishes to all of these people I love, vibrationally. And they're getting so much glut of stuff in the mail right now! Mine will stand out when they get it in February or March!"

Esther receives so much mail and correspondence and well wishes, that the girls just put it in boxes. They try to categorize it for her, and when she comes to look at it, she's overwhelmed by it. Even if she spent the whole week that she's going to be home, she couldn't even open it all, or read it all, or respond to it all! And she said to us years ago: "Abraham, what should I do about this? What should I do about all of these kind people sending me all of this whatever that they want me to respond to?" and Abraham says: "See it and receive it, with the love that they have sent it. And project to them an appreciation for what they have done!

And recognize that the greatest value came to them, when they wrote it!
...When they offered it. Not when they're getting something back from you about it!

In other words, find a way to put yourself in the receiving mode every time, as much as you can.
It's all about self-soothing, because if you're mad at yourself for not getting it done, if you're angry that you haven't checked off your list on something, if you're worried that someone will judge you, or that they will be disappointed because they didn't hear from you, or any of those things that sometimes you all feel about different things like that then you're not in the receptive mode.

And the receptive mode is all you have to give to anyone!

When you are in the receptive mode, you're in the replenishing mode.
And when you're in the replenished mode, then you have good timing, then ideas come to you. An idea about someone who would like to hear from you, who's also in the receptive mode when hearing from you, would be a good thing to do, or happen right here and now! When you're in the receptive mode, everything rendezvous for you.

It's like getting into traffic at the appropriate time.
Getting into traffic at the inspired moment, taking an inspired direction, exiting and getting back on...in other words, there's all kinds of information that is available to you from this broader perspective, who sees everything that you are! Your inner being knows where you are in relationship to everything that you want. EVERYTHING that you want! Not just the big things: EVERY single thing that you want, your inner being knows where you stand in relationship to all of it.

Haven't you ever been on your way out the door, and you've completely forgotten about something that you really need to take with you? Like the keys to the Del Mar house- since that's where you're going. And on your way out the door, the thought comes to you: Where do you think that comes from? And if you are frustrated, because you are running late, that idea is being offered to you. But you don't receive it, you don't even remember that you don't have the keys- until you need the keys, you see. What we're getting at:

The receptive mode is everything.

It's clarity. It's happiness. It's joy! It's appreciation.
It's good timing. It's right place, right time. It's life-giving! It's health. It's well-being.
And it's a whole lot of things that are gonna turn into really good stuff, as a result of staying in that vibration, more of the time!

How to not needing Glasses anymore?
(Esther, performing "the Impossible")

HS:
I've worn glasses since I got out of college, and I'm wondering how can I see better? How can I see without my glasses? What can I do so, that I can improve my vision, like... it's a muscle that can be enhanced? So, is there any way where I could eventually either eat more carrots or do more eye exercises, right so I could see better, and maybe not even use these... is there a possibility of curing or bettering my eyesight?

Abe:
Yes there is.

The most important thing to understand about any desire that you hold is, that it's all about focus.

And it's interesting that we're talking about eyes and focusing at the same time, that we're talking about vibrational Focus! So the thing that is interesting about the way you feel about it, and even about the things that you said about it, is as- you took your glasses off. Your belief and expectation is that you could not see as well! And so, of course, have you noticed these differences? Have you noticed that when you are tired or even, you might say when your eyes are more tired, that your vision is more blurred? And have you noticed that when you wear your glasses, that your eyes do become dependent upon them?

In other words, the lenses do the focusing, so that your eyes can become lazier. That's why your prescriptions usually, as you go through time, become stronger and stronger. It isn't necessary that your eyes change! They just do, because you don't give them a reason to focus in the way they are capable of doing!

Don't you think that's an interesting thing? And so, behind everything... now we know, there are a lot of physical people and a lot of physical places- mostly optometrist offices who would disagree with what we've just said. Because they are looking at the results. They're looking at the manifestation of people's vision! They're not looking at the vibrational reason for it. They're not looking for the vibrational Focus. They're not looking for the emotional Focus! They're just looking for the results of whatever is going on.

And so, it would be helpful to begin saying things such as: "I'm really appreciating these lenses, which help me at times to focus more clearly. And then occasionally, don't put them on, and expect the same thing of your own eyes! The best example that we have of this to give you: Esther and Jerry moved from Arizona to Texas, and it required a new driver's test. And therefore, a new eye examination. And Esther looked into the little Contraption, and she said: "This is broken!" because the last time she looked in it, things were much clearer.

And so, the nice woman explained to her: "Well, no problem! If you can't see clearly, we'll- just come back. But in the meantime go get some glasses, so that you can see what's here." And Esther thought "that seems like a lot of trouble!" so she said to us: "Abraham, can you see can you see what's in here?" and so we just tipped her head a little bit this way, and a little bit that way. Asked her to breathe deeply, and look again- and she read the letters off from inside of the contraption.

And Esther was astounded by the experience!!
Because she knows they are the same eyes! It's just different point of focus, you see what we're getting at!?

So we can tell you're not really having any of this, yet. Because it feels like, there's something that you need to be doing that you're not doing! But you just haven't looked at it this way- before your beliefs get in your way! And there is a common belief that your eyes get worse as you get older, or "how you explain, Abraham that some of you are born with better vision than others!?" -In other words, sometimes children at an early age- we know, we know, we know! There are all kinds of manifestations that you use as your justification, to not have things the way you would really like them to be.

But you ask this question: How could I see more clearly through these eyes? -That's what we heard you ask. And the answer to that is, first understand that you can expect that it is possible! Don't get all excited, all at once. Don't try to be healed suddenly! It's not like that. Just care about your focus, sometimes, when you look at things. It depends upon what else is going on in the atmosphere also. And we want to say to you, that the new lights, that you are putting in your homes, are of a different vibrational frequency, and they make it more difficult for you to see, have you noticed?

And all of you are putting more strain on your eyes, as you are reorienting yourself to the world within the little thing in your hand, rather than the world out there. We're surprised you can see anyone's face, anymore- unless it's on Facebook! (laughter) And so, it really is a matter of using your eyes in a broader way. Look out into the distance, every day! Look up close, every day! In other words- in the same way you said, "eat carrots"- that's always nice. "Eye exercises?" Yes, yes! Use your eyes to focus! But dependency on the lenses will keep you from deliberately focusing your eyes and then your vision, most likely, will require more and more focused lenses. [Applause]

HS:
I do get that. I do.
