HTML:This leading-edge book by Esther and Jerry Hicks, who present the teachings of the nonphysical entity Abraham, is about having a deliberate intent for whatever you want in life, while at the same time balancing your energy along the way. But it??s important to note that the awareness of the need to balance your energy is much more significant than goal-setting or focusing on ultimate desires. And it is from this very important distinction that this work has come forth. As you come to understand and effectively practice the processes offered here, you will not only achieve your goals and desired outcomes more rapidly, but you??ll enjoy every single step along the path even before their manifestation. As such, you??ll find that the living of your life is an ongoing journey of joy, rather than a series of long dry spells between occasional moments of temporary sati No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Abraham is def a Seven on the Enneagram, lots of stuff on sober joy—happiness and bliss, optimism. The only thing about that is that Seven can go to One—perfectionism. We are going to have fun; we are going to have a good time; things are going to be good, bad things will /not/ happen: //so help me Source//, right. But really, the things that bring me joy and happiness and the things that bring me pain and stress are the same things, and they often can’t be separated; you don’t selectively numb or cancel things out, right. [Edit: Abraham actually calls this “contrast”, and says that it’s Totally Fine, but I was—I mean, I didn’t know the whole thing yet, and also I was just struck by, I don’t know, what an immature person would do with it, you know. Sometimes even relatively straightforward things—it would be easy to laugh and call the whole thing simplistic, actually!—have their ~ subtle~ points, you know.]
But I’m a Six, I’m a pessimist—so close to Seven, and drawing upon its energy so frequently, and yet often I’m fundamentally so far away, separating myself from its benefits. Each number has its benefits, but optimism Is better than pessimism, at least as such, you know—and although I’ve irresponsibly used Seven energy in the past, going hard into Five (one of my other strategies), and becoming a distanced, isolated Knower isn’t always the right thing, either. I want to be happy. I can be happy! I can even generate happiness within myself, persistently enough to bring about conditions that make me even happier! And Abraham can coach me on how to do it!….
And I’ll just hide my cartoon villain jokes from them, you know. 😉
…. And, of course, Abraham does seem like the kind of evolved being(s) who has/have the energy, very often, to make good their Enneagram Number deficits. You have to learn to pay attention to—not to be bored by—what makes you happy. It’s not boredom; it’s happiness. And everything else, that’s “contrast”.
…. Abraham does say that you can notice something you don’t like and then choose something else, so you don’t attach to it, although subtly it’s not the same as not noticing that you don’t like it—although of course normally what happens is you feel attacked by what you don’t want, and you feel flooded by negative emotion, and then…. 🫣🥶🥵😱
Sometimes you just have to look at it as a process, and know that Life //is// teaching you to do it better, and giving you all the experiences that you need to have…. I mean, I don’t have the naive view of God’s Will that the standard time travel story does—like in Doctor Who, Rose’s father doesn’t die because she intervenes, so dragons show up and torch the village, right. (Meanwhile, blatantly time-altering things can happen as an insult and it’s ok, right, in that and other episodes.) I mean, maybe if Rose’s father doesn’t die in a car accident he ekes out a defeated life and it’s worse for him, you know, but there’s like this sci-fi superstition that Time Can Only Be One Way, or you know, Eating Poop Is God’s Will, (is going on the Telly and winning money God’s will too?), and it’s like…. Unbalanced, you know.
I forget the point I was trying to make, but the thing is, I don’t think that Time is ever over, certainly not if you still need it, you know—if Life gives you an experience and you piss it away, something else will happen and it’ll be Life over again, you know. Eventually, you can learn to notice what you don’t like and choose something else, even if it’s not like, for most people, One & Done, you know. One & Done would actually be stepping outside of time, transcendence, and that works for some people, but I think Time //can// be a Teacher in most people’s lives, and I think sometimes transcendent people underestimate that…. So I choose something else. Of course, the main lesson isn’t so much //that//, as learning not to flood yourself with toxic emotions, you know. You just gotta…. not do that.
…. This is actually from one of those short YouTube clips she does, but Abraham said that Allowing us really the only thing that’s really ever lacking: it’s not asking, because we inevitably ask. I always thought that there was something I wasn’t asking for….
Anyway, it’s a good book: I tend to be in the middle category, with occasional visits to happiness and frequent slips into misery, but overall mostly neutral, which is actually something I can allow to be better….
Sevens (Joy) can actually go to One (Perfectionism), when not going positive, in a bad way, so it’s good that Abraham says she’s not trying to guide us towards to away from any particular path or viewpoint; it’s for us to decide if we want to go to the Ritz Hotel, or Mysterious Galaxy bookstore—she just wants us to go towards joy…. So that we can patiently allow what we desire, and to gently release what is unnecessary for us.
…. You don’t have to hammer home the same affirmation you started the day with, if you’re not in a neutral-or-better place anymore; but you can always brainstorm things about the situation that are good.
…. It is a process, but I won’t stop until I get to bliss, you know.
And hey, these things happen, you know. Little Persephone is out there with her mother, and she’s all crying, like, He’p! He’p me mommy! I don’t like it! It’s not safe! Somebody gotta he’p me…. ~ 😸
I mean, that’s how I feel, and I’m grown, and my mother’s a dry alcoholic who worries more than I do, you know.
But Abraham puts it in perspective. You go halfway towards the bottom of the list, maybe not quite half, and you kinda piddle there for an hour or so—it could be a lot worse.
But you don’t have to stop making it better.
…. It’s not exactly complicated, but sometimes it’s subtle, how it’s different from how you might assume it to be, you know.
One thing that strikes me is that, if I’m an eternal being in an eternal universe, I don’t have to worry about running out of time, and being stuck forever, you know. Nobody sends you to heaven against your will, but the only way to be “stuck” is to refuse to change—you can’t ~ really ~ be Stuck, you know.
And it’s not about being perfect or being shit, you know. (“But that’s what mercy means, boy!”) I am not obligated to be infinite/perfect/nothing-everything, you know. I came into this life to be finite, and I can continue to experience a uniquely finite experience of growing and expanding. Growth isn’t one-and-done, but experience is never lost, so I can be okay with making mistakes or experiencing limitation sometimes, and know that that doesn’t mean that I’m “stuck” as I once chose to be.
I’m simply learning more about the journey of life.
