f we could eliminate contrast, then we would eliminate choice, and if we could eliminate choice, then we would eliminate asking. If we could eliminate asking, we would eliminate summoning of Source, we would eliminate leading edge thought — and we would eliminate eternity.

Hello from Jerry & Esther these teachings or old timers, still wanting to learn more... each person seems to find the answers to the essence of the questions that they bring to this forum.

We don’t know exactly why you have chosen to read this journal at this time — but we do know that from wherever you are positioned right now, you can expect to move up to another level of joyousness. You can expect that something that you will read in this journal will act as a catalyst to your inspired motion toward all that is important to you.

“New Person”, we are thrilled by the joyous, new life experience that is just ahead of you. And, “Old Timer”, we have come together at the opportune time for both of us. And as your interaction is adding to our state of Well-being, Abraham is simultaneously providing you with an expanding awareness of who you really are, why you are here — and how to consciously fulfill your purpose in being here.

Intend to have fun with all of this, and your example of a joyous life experience will positively and profoundly influence the world around you. As you are doing it for yourself — you are also doing it for All-thatIs. From our hearts,

Welcome to you who are receiving this Quarterly Journal for the first time. Articles included in each issue are designed to be of as much value to you, the newest kid on the block, as they are to those who have been enjoying these materials for the past decade.

Although the basic theme of The Science of Deliberate Creation holds to a steady, dependable perspective, it evolves continually as attendees of our workshops bring their evolved questions, comments and relevant thoughts.

With the exception of the Abraham-Hicks books, nearly everything that you will experience in any of our publications will have been excerpted and edited from a recorded, and later transcribed, open group Abraham-Hicks interactive workshop. To the degree that each participant is, in each moment, at a different level of asking and of understanding — Abraham seems to present these materials on multi-dimensional levels.

And so, each person, whether new to

You Have Within You A Trusty Vibrational Meter!

ABRAHAM: Are you understanding that you are Creator? Are you understanding that in every moment whether you know it or not you are offering a vibrational output and that by Law of Attraction — the Universe is responding to that output? Are you coming to understand that what Deliberate Creation is is deliberately offering that vibrational signal? Are you coming to understand the role that your emotions play in your understanding of your signal? Oh, it is a wonderful thing when you begin to understand that how you are feeling — or the emotion that you are projecting —is an emotional/vibrational indicator of whatever your output is.

Do you know that you are physically focused extensions of Nonphysical Energy?

Are you understanding that you are eternal beings that are now partially focused through this perspective, or perception, that you know as you? Are you coming to understand that there is a fuller, broader, Nonphysical you that flows to you and through you when you allow it?

As you stand here in these physical bodies, you are literally on the leading edge of thought. The furthest extensions of the powerful Nonphysical Energy Stream. And as you stand here in the perspective, or personality, that you know as you, understanding your relationship with this Stream — some call it God Force, some call it Creative Life Force, some call it

Energy, Creative Energy, it doesn’t matter what label you give it — but as you stand here on the furthest edge of this Energy Stream experiencing the contrast of your time and place, out of that contrast is born desire that continues as a summoning or a perpetuating of the Stream through you into this leading edge environment.

Now, as this Stream flows to you — this Energy Stream that creates worlds — there are two things that you are wanting to be aware of relative to the Stream, and as you understand these two things — only these two things — relative to this God Force, or Life Stream, that flows forth to you, you will forevermore understand how it is that you can be a Deliberate Creator. You continue to be a Creator because you can’t turn your vibrating mechanism off, but when you understand these two things, relative to this Stream — you will be a Deliberate Creator: First, “How much of this Stream am I, in my now perspective, summoning through the power of my desire? How much do I want? How much do I desire? What is my desire?”

That’s the first thing. The second thing is, and the only other thing, “Of that Stream, which my desire is summoning, how much of it am I allowing to flow through?” And everything that you are living and everything that you are feel-

It is Through Your Perspective That You Create

the feeling of peacefulness or contentment. Not much desire, right now, but no resistance. Can you feel that? Now, feel with us the feeling of frustration — mild negative emotion. That indicates some desire, now, and some resistance.

Resistance is that contradictory thought.

And now, feel with us the feeling of strong negative emotion — anger or depression or strong frustration... That means strong desire and strong resistance. So, as you begin to pay attention to the way that you are feeling, you can know, in every moment, these two important things: I, as a physical extension of Nonphysical Energy, who is a Creator out here on the leading edge of thought, am exposing myself to contrast. For what reason?

ing and everything that everybody you know is living or feeling is all about those two aspects of that Stream.

You are vibrational beings interpreting vibration on many levels. For the most part, you are doing it unconsciously. So we want you to do this part of it consciously.

Here’s what we mean: What you see with your eyes is an interpretation of vibration. That’s what sight is. What you smell with your nose, what you hear with your ears, what you taste with your tongue or feel with your skin, these are all interpretations of vibration. But you say, “Abraham, I didn’t have to learn how to do that. I was born seeing. I was born smelling.” Smelling, not smelly.

Smelling. “I was born smelling. I was born feeling. I was born with these physical sensors. I didn’t have to learn them.” And we say, you were born with your emotional sensors, too.

What is the Value of Contrast in your Physical Environment?

Contrast is what gives birth to decision or desire. When you say, “desire” or when you say, “asking”, or when you say, “decision”, it is all the same thing. The contrast brings you to that focused desire or to that focused summoning.

We want you to focus with us, for just a little bit, and get a sense of this very important contrast. We don’t mean conflict. We don’t mean agony and defeat and ecstasy and exultation, although agony and defeat and ecstasy and exultation certainly is a contrasting experience. We mean difference.

Your Trusty Vibrational Meter Imagine, with us, a Vibrational Meter.

And we are going to stop at four places on this meter, even though there are infinite stops, in order to give you an understanding of what we mean by the two things, that it is important that you know of, relative to your Life Force: Feel with us, for a moment, the feeling of passion. Relative to the first subject, it means much desire, and relative to the second part, it means much allowing.

When you feel passion or enthusiasm or invigoration — those high, good, fast feeling feelings — what it means is, in this moment, your desire is strong, so you are summoning lots of Nonphysical Energy. Or better said, your desire is summoning through you, lots of Energy, and, in this moment, you have no resistance or no contradictory vibration that is hindering the flow. That elation or passion means you’re summoning Energy and you’re letting it flow. Now, feel with us

Ask and It is Given We want you to feel the power that the contrast provides you, because in contrast, it causes you, even without your consciously knowing it, to focus a desire or a decision — and that is the true meaning of asking. Have you heard the expression, “Ask, and it is given”?

You said, trustingly and knowingly, Continued on page 27

Love ❥ Appreciation ❥ Love ...With all my heart I want to thank you for your new book, Sara & Seth! It is a masterpiece and a gift to the world. I feel so blessed to receive the teachings though you. The two of you (Esther and Jerry) are a true inspiration.

Thanks again and lots of blessings to come your way! — EL — TX

stream and for sharing that. I have always known this, and finding you and your expression of it has expanded my life beyond anything I previously imagined.

Thanks again, — CM — NY

Gift to the World

...I feel so lucky to know two people who have the ability to write such a powerful, simple and beautiful story! Just as the events in my life have prepared me to encounter and appreciate this book, so too, this story gently prepared me for appreciating Solomon’s wisdom.

My father used to emphasize Jesus’ advice to become like little children in order to enter God’s kingdom. This story powerfully illustrates that by cherishing and opening oneself to the optimism and wonder of a child, one may find this metaphysical kingdom a realty of every moment in our lives.

I know there are probably many reasons why we met. But for me, the most important reason has been that you both have reminded me of that universal truth.

And so, my life, again, has become a continually wonder-filled experience! Thank you for reminding me that life is glorious, for allowing me to read your story, and for your friendship.

Become As Children

...I loved the Sara & Seth book! It was like a private session with Abraham. It spoke to me so directly and frequently. The points of the teaching are so clear and applicable. My favorite line (and desire): “I want to be just like him.” pg.

221. Reading the book pumped up my desires and gave me the optimism, enthusiasm, and expectation that I can do it.

As Sara so eloquently said it on pg.

206: “It works! It works! It works!”

This is your best book yet. I look forward to the next one. I can’t wait to see my favorite trio (???) in Colorado in June.

Until then, I love you — MR — OK

It Works!

It Works!

I want to express my heartfelt appreciation for your presence in my life! I attended the San Antonio workshop in May, and my life has turned around 1000%. Tremendously! I expressed that “I wanted to Live!” and so I am, joyfully!

I am having so much fun. I often play the 17 second technique from the Maui tapes (7 minutes long) and I feel that I am living as I joyfully, purposefully intended.

An abundance of good stuff happens every day and it keeps getting better as I allow and float. I can hardly wait to get up in the morning. I enjoy my Monthly Tapes and eagerly look forward to the Sara sequel, Sara & Seth, on tape.

Thanks again, — SW— B.C. Canada

Having So Much Fun

The new Sara and Seth book is WOW! It reads in a flow. I swear, as I read it I felt like I was right there. I didn’t rush through, I savored it. Sort of like eating something that was really good and I was looking for more of it, when really I should have been full. A very powerful tool for learning.

This book reminds me of the basis of all creation. How changing my thoughts toward something will change the outcome.

I’d be really proud to give something like this to the world!!!!

I am ready to build a tree house too.

What fun.

Love ya, — PC— TX

Sara & Seth Is a WOW!

Cried Tears of Joy

I just finished reading the 4th chapter of the new book, Sara & Seth, and sat and cried tears of joy... Thank you. Thank you for continuing to become more and more connected to the

Love ❥ Appreciation ❥ Love students, the faculty and parents of my school. I began to move away from a problem-centered approach to school issues to a solution-focused approach. I found my time to be much more productively utilized by seeking desired outcomes rather than fruitless discussions of student or teacher problems.

I will never forget an Abraham-type statement that a teacher made one day that put it all together for me just before I retired. She said, “pain is inevitable, misery is an option and happiness is a choice!” If we did nothing more but promote the Abraham philosophy in our schools — our children and everyone would experience an exceptional education for a creative and uplifting life.

Thank you again for all that you do in promoting this liberated state of consciousness.

Blessings, — TC — VA

Sara & Seth is Fabulous! I woke up at 5AM and didn’t feel like going back to sleep, so I picked up the copy of Sara and Seth, (I bought yesterday at my Science Of Mind Church Bookstore) and read it straight through.

The forword from Jerry where he said he laughed out loud and had goosebumps and teared up, was also true for me. It is delightful and fun and funny and joyous, and it makes me want to look around and say, “How much fun can I have today?” and “What could I learn that would excite me?”

The delightful examples of pivots, setting your tone, focus wheels, cork floating and using what you don’t want to determine what you do want,.is the best summation I have seen, so far, of what Abe teaches and how to use it. And presented through Sara and Seth in a tree house. Great fun!

Love, Light & Laughter, — CC — VA

Delightful and Joyous

...Thank you, beyond words, for this most exciting, brilliant, fun and adventurous book. I loved every minute of it and couldn’t put it down. Sara and Seth is a scrumptious treasure. Everyone will love and cherish its beautiful messages and enjoy the ride through its wonderful world of possibilities.

Bless you, and lots of amore, — JG — CA

I Couldn’t Put The Book Down

...Sara and Seth is the magnificent evolution after Sara. It was quite special in expressing, with excellence, the important concepts of Abraham’s teachings. Then, Sara on tape was truly a paradigm shift. And now, Sara and Seth, the empowering, enriching, enlightening, educating, magical story, is as excellent as the first Sara. What a special adventurous teaching of life, of holding the vision and allowing the Law of Attraction to bring it about. This is Deliberate Creation at its best.

Caught up in the magical feeling, I felt as if I was in the tree house with Sara and Seth, talking with my dear friend, Solomon, again. Such fun.

With much appreciation for another exciting book to share with my clients and loved ones of all ages — along with all of Abraham’s teachings that “all is well” on the journey of a joyous life experience.

Lovingly — LF — IL (P.S. Jerry, I look forward to hearing Sara and Seth on tape. See you in April.)

Empowering and Magical Story

...It is with joyful anticipation that I submit this order for the new book, Sara and Seth — Solomon’s Fine Featherless Friends. I also want to take the time to simply tell you of my heartfelt gratitude for the Abraham teachings and the profound impact they have had on my life.

Several years ago while I was working in the public schools as a guidance counselor, I had the opportunity to read the first Sara book, Sara & the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather. This wonderful book gave me the insights that I needed to provide the quality of guidance services that I wanted for my

Sara & Seth, Solomon’s Fine Featherless Friends — An Introduction It’s 4:30 in the morning, Esther is beautifully asleep as I sit on our balcony experiencing the rolling breakers, reflecting the pure spirit of Hawaii along the Kaanapali beach. It was during my first visit here, over 20 years ago, that a powerful desire welled up within me: to enable everyone that would know me to discover their own way to taste this delightful spiritual and sensual experience.

Esther and I have returned to this same suite in this same hotel many times, and although these annual visits are usually for the purpose of conducting workshops, these past few days, here, have been used, primarily to prepare for the introduction of this remarkable new book — Sara & Seth (Solomon’s Fine Featherless Friends).

It can be extremely refreshing, in this fast paced, highly scheduled culture, to tap back into childhood memories, back into times less complex, back to when our perceptions were clearer. There is something undeniably soothing about revisiting that fresher, purer, less cluttered perspective. And I believe that Sara & Seth are about to bring you to that feeling of a fresh new beginning. They have certainly, joyously carried me there.

And about my powerful desire? Well, whether or not you ever show up on these serene, uncluttered Kaanapali shores, or in Sara & Seth’s special kid’s place, their simple yet adventurous tree house — I will continue to feel this strong desire for you to experience all of the good that you are willing to imagine and allow.

It has appeared to me that the longer most people remain upon this earth, the less free and joyful they begin to feel. As they pass through time, and as they gather experiences, possessions, relationships, responsibilities and beliefs in vulnerability — most slip further and further from their true, natural joyous state of being.

Sara & Seth, like most of us, occasionally step into a downward slide from their natural state of joy into a serious perspective of life and of its perceived injustices — but they don’t stay there long. For their wise, loving mentor, their dear friend, Solomon, remains close by, observing their every experience — willing, eager and able to guide them (and the reader) back to their natural joyful balance.

As our first Sara book: Sara, and the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather, was honored by the Body Mind Spirit — Books to Live By — award of excellence, this new book, Sara & Seth, Solomon’s Fine Featherless Friends, promises to be another valued lifetime companion to a 4 year old Hanna or to her great-great-great grandparents.

It thrills me to note how often I have an experience that causes me to clearly recall a scenario from this dear book — which instantly puts me in a place of re-evaluating and re-aligning my perspective. Each of us can, by applying the simple techniques that Solomon offers to Sara & Seth, sustain or reclaim, our joyful perspective of this magnificent opportunity here upon this earth.

As I first read these materials, I was surprised at how often I heard myself laughing right out loud as I related, so easily, to what Sara & Seth were experiencing. Many issues, that I was unaware of not being completely resolved, were being soothed within me as they were being soothed by Solomon within Sara & Seth.

We are so pleased to offer you these simple keys, the only keys you will ever need, to achieving the joyful, satisfying life you have come to earth to experience: Sara & Seth, Solomon’s Fine Featherless Friends.

A Brief Excerpt from Sara & Seth, Solomon’s Fine Featherless Friends ...It was a warm and sunny afternoon in Sara’s mountain town. In fact, Sara had decided, earlier that day, that this was the prettiest day, so far, this year. And to celebrate this extra pretty day, Sara had decided to go to her favorite place in the whole town, her leaning perch. Sara called it her leaning perch because no one else in town even seemed to notice that it existed. Sara could not come to this spot without remembering how it came to be. How the metal railing atop the Main Street Bridge had been bent way out over the river when a local farmer had lost control of his truck while trying to avoid running over Harvey, a friendly and always roving dog, who weaved his way in and out of traffic every day, always expecting everyone to stop or swerve to make way for him. And so far, it had always worked out that way. Sara was relieved that no one was hurt that day, not even Harvey, who many thought deserved to get run over. I’ve heard of cats having nine lives, Sara smiled to herself, as she remembered that day, but not dogs.

Sara lay there lazily watching the river flow by beneath her. She breathed deeply and enjoyed the wonderful smell of this delicious river. She could not remember ever feeling better. “I love my life!” Sara said right out loud, feeling a fresh exuberance for life and an eagerness for more.

“Well, better get going,” Sara said to herself, climbing back out of her perch and gathering up her book bag and jacket that she had piled in a heap on the bridge. She was still standing on the bridge when the Morris family’s rattling, sagging, overloaded truck drove across it. It was not the loud clanging of an out-of-tune engine, or the crates of chickens tied to the roof, or the old goat teetering in the back of the truck, that caught Sara’s eye. But the intense, interested gaze of a boy riding in the back. His eyes locked with Sara’s, and, for a moment, they each felt as if they had met an old friend.

Then the truck sputtered on down the road. Sara threw her bag over her shoulder and ran down the road to the intersection, looking to see where the truck pulled in. It looks like it pulled into the old Thacker place, Sara thought. Hmmm...

W E N G-SERIES TAPES — FALL, 1998 You Have A Trusty Vibrational Meter!

We have enjoyed this interaction immensely. It is wonderful to come together with those like you are are coming to a clearer understanding of who you are. It is our promise to you that no desire is left untended. There is not anything that you can ask that will not be given. Be easy about this. Love yourself in the process. Seek those thoughts and experiences and friends and books and television programs and music... seek those things that are uplifting to you in your interaction with them. Follow your bliss, and let your emotions guide you to the fullness of who you really are. You are vibrational beings who now have a keener understanding of vibration than you have ever had before.

We rant and rave and offer so many words we tend to make you think it is complicated, and it is not. Which feels better? This thought or this?

Which feels better? This thought or this? That is the criteria that your Inner Being offers. Don’t get carried away with the idea of vibration, but do get carried away with the intention or attitude, “Nothing is more important than that I feel good.” When you make a decision in terms of how it feels to you...

“Today, no matter where I’m going, no matter what I am doing, it is my dominant intent to look for that which I am wanting to see, to look for that which feels good,” you are making a decision that does the most important thing. It connects you to your Source Energy — and once connected to Source, all things are possible. There is great love here for you. We are complete.

Abraham — G-10/11/98, Boston, MA & G-11/1/98, Chicago, IL

G-8/22/98 — All comes in response to your vibrational offering. You pay a great price for your empathy. Practitioner wants to honorably integrate Abraham’s materials. You can’t impeach your leader into connection.

Wants the low-down on “Mercury in retrograde”? Abraham’s philosophy regarding cussing, swearing children. Who is responsible for the “victim’s plight?

G-9/5/98 — How can we impact Nonphysical from Physical? Your fresh, powerful present rockets of desire. Evaluating others from your current ethical biases. Contrast ain’t necessarily conflict or trauma. Now, she does want to bear a baby. Law of Attraction and its influence on births.

Is this co-dependency or is it co-creativity?

12

G-series tapes FALL, 1998 G-9/6/98 — Receiving conscious communication from Nonphysical. When tragic deaths become next logical step. That “vengeful, angry, punishing God” never existed. About the dynamics of tithing? Yipping, clattering, eternally linking, neighbor’s dog. Yipping, clattering, eternally linking, “horrible” tenants. Wife’s religious perspective doesn’t embrace his.

G-9/13/98 — Wants constant conscious connection with Inner Being. She is 38 and single and (bleeped). Caught up in children’s rage and cynicism. How about her last 3 significant relationships? Tell me about “being present in my now”? Fears she has denied physical entry to spirits. She has a recurring hair loss problem.

G-9/27/98 — Creational X,Y,Zs and the variables of time. What they are addicted to, is feeling good. His lucrative, 4 days a week, profession feels unfree. Attorney loves, and dislikes, aspects of her profession. Are Pintos n’Cheese stuck in her chakras? “At your age”, what do you expect?

Wants to synthesize his Rockets of Desire.

G-10/11/98 — Focus Wheels, Place Mats, Creation Boxes and Dollars.

Lotteries, and the exchange of human energy. A review of Abraham’s Prosperity Game Process. Student wants un-work-related dollars. 17 Second Process to having enough time. Launching of children’s program is bogging down. Do we choose when and how we die?

G-10/13/98 — All creation is on the leading edge. Are we, at some point, homogenized beings? She always falls asleep after she eats. Can our prayers override another’s intentions? To deal with her ornamental bushwackers. Focus Wheeling 50 pounds weight loss worries friends.

Questioning the nature of Nonphysical time.

G-10/15/98 — You did not learn to smell, you smelled. When seeking the cause of her discomfort. Can this prosecutor protect victims from victimizers? Which came first: chicken or egg? Can we communicate with plants and animals? Teen is “flipping off” her angry mother. Why does this cultural pity party exist?

G-10/17/98 — Inspired, or motivated, to her new job? What being fully connected feels like. The real purpose of Esther’s tree house. Is resistance natural to our physical form? No “joy in heaven” from pain on earth.

Clarification of “We are all one.” A new perspective of “Families of Consciousness”.

G-11/1/98, III — How does Abraham select the Workshop questioner?

The next logical step to experiencing a “Frank”. Did time stop when he fell from the bridge? Balancing children’s educational structure with freedom. Is a “genetic” pain a genuine pain? Let’s have more clarification on “Vibrations”. Nurse wants to understand purpose of husband’s death.

Love ❥ Appreciation ❥ Love ...Since attending that wonderful weekend with you in Boca Raton, which I feel changed my life, I have been wanting to tell how much it meant to me and how everything back at home seems different because of it.

You both showed me how it is possible to live the life of your dreams in a wonderfully close and loving relationship — each look between you two told more than a book could have done. I long for all of that now that you have shown me the way.

I have been thinking about and looking forward to the time that I can fly across the Atlantic once again and bask in that energy with you both.

With love and light — CSW — England

The four of us may come to Albuquerque in May. Maybe we’ll just follow you guys around in a van like the Grateful Dead-heads.

Except, we take showers. We could be the (Appreciative) Alive-heads.

Love, literally, PB — NM

Life Changing

(Hi, Esther, here — A band of our favorite people told us a while back — “We love going from place to place to see you guys. It’s like the Grateful Dead. Because Abraham’s dead, and we’re grateful.”) ...My immense appreciation for the wonderful workshop with Abraham that you gave in San Francisco.

Abraham’s message has changed my life! I have been on a spiritual path all my life, and so far, this communication has been the clearest and simplest information in helping me to access my “inner knowing”.

It was wonderful to meet both of you and I would like to thank you for making this your life work and in the process, helping people like myself who are really searching for their joy!

Thanks again, BSF —WA

Wonderful Workshop

...I just received the tapes for the Los Angeles workshop and was again reminded what a joyful interaction it was.

Thank you. I am truly touched by the integrity and love that you both bring to your work. How joyful it must be to see that love reflected back to you at each and every workshop.

As my understanding of the material grows so does my list of questions, so I am joyfully anticipating your return. I find being in the presence of both you and Abraham to be quite exhilarating.

With much love and appreciation, CK — CA

More Questions

...Thank you for the wonderful time I had at your seminar in Boca this weekend. What a joy! In those closing minutes, Esther/Abraham certainly raised the vibrations to such a high... tears were running down my cheeks. My sister-in-law sent me the intro. tapes a few months ago, and I ordered a few things. Your book, Sara, was then available for me to take to share with my class of high school students when we lost a classmate to bacterial meningitis over a weekend. Then my daughter sent me the gift of the seminar for my birthday!

I am so delighted that I am attracting such wonderful experiences into my life. I love it!!!

Most sincerely, T C — FL

What A Joy

...My wife and I and our best friends just attended the Phoenix workshop — our first — and I had to write and tell you what a wonderfully rewarding, fun and enlightening time we all had. We are still pumped, and still having delayed effect awakenings on various subjects, and we were doing extremely well with this stuff before we came!

As neat as the tapes have been, being there was way better. There was much more dealt with through energy, than the verbal dialogue would lead one to believe. We felt like we were individually, and very personally addressed, via non-physical energy, to help us in the areas we wanted help with, and questions were answered that we didn’t even verbalize.

I honestly feel like you two are the coolest people I’ve ever been with. I never got to see the Beatles, or Jane Roberts (my short diverse list of heroes) but I put you right up there.

Still Pumped

...The workshop in San Rafael brought me profound and lasting change.

I feel my feet firmly planted on the path for the first time this life time and perhaps ever.

The workshops, the books, the calendar, the tapes — I gobble them up.

There is much love from me to you!

This teaching has revolutionized my life. It just makes so much sense, and is so simple. All we have to do is to practice it —

and live it.

Thank you! Thank you both!!

Blessings and great love, JT — TN

Search Is Over

...Thank you for the workshop in Phoenix. We appreciated you answering all of our questions without us having to even raise our hands — Abraham even glanced over at me while answering one of mine. I felt like I was observing most of the two days from the ceiling — it was a delightful experience all around.

You are both amazing powerful creators and are doing quite a job — with perfection and total professionalism. Accommodations at the Windmill Hotel were great also — good pick. The four of us have read so many books searching for answers that you have so simply answered — our search is over — the real fun has just begun.

We are just flying and really having fun with all of this.

Much Love to you both, S&J N — NM ...My life has been transformed in the three years that I have been listening to your tapes. Every aspect of my life, every relationship that I have, has been enriched and enhanced with the knowing of Abraham. I am eternally grateful for this information that empowers me to be a deliberate creator!

Your staff is great! And I’m so enjoying the Weekly Tape Program! How is it that each new tape seems to get better and better? Of course...the power of the Law of Attraction!

With a full and joyful heart, Your friend, LT — PA

Enjoys Weekly Tape Program

...You do a wonderful job of editing the Monthly Tapes, because each tape seems to give the answer I need at the time.

Each month gets a little deeper and broader. It is so wonderful to have such guidance.

Wonderful Guidance

15

You are what is needed on our planet now.

Fondly, BB — IA ..On the latest Weekly Tape I received, I heard Jerry say, “new web-site” in the intro.

So, I found it, and I must say that it is very clear, fun and uplifting. Thanks for making this information available. And all really is well.

Love, Laughter, and Light from California.

New Web Site

...You guys have not only revolutionized my life but have set a glowing example of what it means to be uplifters.

I have practiced Buddhism, for 26 years and I know that it works — but I didn’t know why. Abraham has explained it to me (through you) in a way that has opened every door and then some. I am thrilled to be here (on Earth) and participating with you. Please continue this magnificent work!

TR — CA

Uplifters

...If I wrote you all the times I think about doing so, you would not have much time for anything else. I truly trust that the Universe lets you know just how I feel and how very much you mean to me and have meant to me for quite a while now.

Every time I think you can’t do anything else to endear yourself any more deeply, there you go and do it again.

The new Sara and Seth book is absolutely DELICIOUS!! And then, in came the new little San Francisco three tape album when I needed it most.

There is truly great love for each and all of you here!!!!!

Sara & Seth Is Delicious

...The Sudbury book, “Free At Last” was a wonderful gift! I have retired from the school system, so am intimately acquainted with children and “education” in my community.

“Sudbury” is a great help for “what to lay my thought to” in place of “ain’t it awful what we have”!! And, of course, Sara and the other tapes I ordered are at my elbow when I sit in the rocking chair to just “workshop” or “listen”.

Thank you, Abraham. Thank you Jerry & Esther.

Sincerely, MO— KY

Sudbury School

Sara receives the Award of Excellence Body Mind Spirit Magazine, one of the widest known publishers of New Thought materials, has recently informed us that our beloved Sara has received their Award of Excellence as one of last year’s outstanding books in print. And, as such, has been included as one of the forty-six books recognized in their magazine’s Books to Live By selection.

Esther and I were most pleased to learn that our dear friend Louise Hay’s Hay House publication of another dear friend, Alan Cohen’s book, A Deep Breath of Life, has also received the recognition.

“Dear Mr. & Mrs. Hicks: It is my pleasure to inform you that Sara, and the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather has received a 1997 Body Mind Spirit Award of Excellence as one of 1996’s outstanding books in print...

“Chosen from hundreds of excellent books in print in the areas of spirituality, natural healing, relationships and creativity...each book makes a valuable contribution to our selfknowledge and self-transformation...We commend the authors for these outstanding works...”

And Esther and I feel both appreciative of and blessed by the recognition of our Sara.

IT GETS BETTER & BETTER I finished the audio book of “Sara” and wanted you to know how GREAT it was.

I especially like Jerry’s voice and hope that he is considering reading the “A New Beginning” books, too. I listen to Abraham every day as I’m walking my dogs, driving in my car, or working in my garden. And it’s the only way to be stuck in traffic, do laundry or sit in waiting rooms. Each Abraham tape just gets better and better and seems to be made for me personally. Thank you so very much for all the wonderful changes you have made possible in my life. I am looking forward to attending my first workshop, in Detroit.

Also, the people who take the phone orders there at Abraham-Hicks are delightful and such a pleasure to talk to.

Thanks again, L.P. — @worldnet

A Review of Sara

and the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather, My whole family read this book and we haven’t been the same since. My husband, perhaps, was the most moved by it. He actually said that it had such a tremendous impact on him that he looks at life with new eyes. It’s like being nearsighted your whole life and then finally getting glasses. Everything becomes crystal clear.

I cannot say enough good things about this life-transforming book. You will share in Sara’s ups and downs on the way to greater heights of fulfillment and know that there is a Sara in all of us. If there is only one book you ever buy, make sure it is this one. You won’t regret it! (all ages) by Denise Tarsitano in

the “Rising Star Series, Excerpted from phenomeNEWS “Mixed Reviews” 9/9/98 Sara and the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather is a novel about a young girl, Sara, who learns the simple lessons about life through a wise owl named Solomon. This is the book you can give to friends who are questioning the meaning of life. Sara serves as a touchstone to seasoned travelers on the spiritual path, also.

Readers will understand how they, too, can become the magnificent creators they were born to be and that all really is in divine order ... all really is well.

When Sara comes to this knowing, she asks her wise mentor, “Solomon, how ever will I ever explain this to anybody? How will I ever make them understand?” And Solomon speaks to all of us as he answers, “Sara that is not your work. It is enough, Sweet Girl, that you understand.”

Sara is also available on audio cassette tapes. Jerry Hicks brings his show business background to a delightfully orchestrated version of the book as he breathes joy and vitality into each character. This album is for children of all ages, from 5 to 105.

Sara and the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather is a wonderful gift to give yourself or anyone who wants a greater understanding of life. We highly recommend the book, and the book on tape — and all of the Abraham-Hicks material.

Jerry & Esther Hicks — 11/95 19

SPECIAL SUBJECT TAPES — VOL I Focused into our now — the only point in which we have the power to create — neither speculating into the future nor reminiscing into the historical past — ABRAHAM speaks, primarily, toward that practical information which we can personally learn to deliberately apply to our current experience and thereby gain beneficial results....From their broader perspective — unencumbered by your cultural beliefs — ABRAHAM reaches into a place, within you, of clear primal acknowledgement, from which you will repeatedly hear that enthused inner "voice" reminding you, "I knew that!"

As you experience these Special Subject tapes, expect a fresh state of joyous becoming—for ABRAHAM'S words will stimulate you to a new beginning. Retain the beliefs that are of value to you, and learn to become unaffected by any acquired beliefs or influences that have been a hindrance. ABRAHAM guides us, first, to harmony with our Inner Being, and then all else falls into perfect alignment.

In order to build a foundation of an understanding of Abraham’s teachings, begin with the tapes AB-1, Free Introduction To Abraham, through AB-6, Great Awakening and Blending, and then progress through the Special Subject Tapes Series—as per the order of your interest. Each tape addresses different levels of awareness, and as you repeatedly listen to them, as you are moving forward, you will continually be achieving new insights and experiences.

Order a single at $9.95, 3 or more at $7.75, or order 5 or more, and receive a complimentary (while available) 12 space cassette album.

AB-2 LAW OF ATTRACTION * — The most powerful Law in the universe.

It affects every aspect of your daily life. A Law which is, whether you understand that it is or not. Specific processes are offered here to help you learn how to harness this Law — to get what you want.

AB-3 LAW OF DELIBERATE CREATION * — Discover the ecstasy of understanding universal Laws which are absolute — no matter what the circumstances. Without an understanding of this universal Law, it is as if you are playing in a game where the rules are not understood, so it is not only impossible to know if what you are doing is appropriate, but you do not know how to win the game. The rules of the game of life are clearly offered here.

20

SPECIAL SUBJECT TAPES — VOL I AB-4 LAW OF ALLOWING * — Of all things that you will come to understand through this physical life experience, nothing is more important than to become an allower. In becoming an allower, you are free of the negativity that binds you. Learn the joyful difference between tolerating and allowing — and experience the blissful difference in every relationship you have.

AB-5 SEGMENT INTENDING — Our futures are individually paved by the steady stream of thoughts we set forth. We are literally creating our future life as we direct our thoughts of this moment into the future. Discover the magnificent power you hold in this moment — and learn how to use that power always to your advantage.

AB-6 GREAT AWAKENING, BLENDING — You have deliberately and excitedly chosen this time to be physical beings upon this planet, because you knew in advance that this would be the time when many — not all — physical beings would recognize the broadness and great value of their being. Follow this step-by-step process for awakening.

AB-7 RELATIONSHIPS, AGREEMENTS — We are all creators as we individually think and plan, but we are also often co-creators as we interact with others. Most relationships with others are far less than we want them to be.

Find out why. Discover how to rejuvenate unhealthy relationships and attract new harmonious ones.

AB-8 BODILY CONDITIONS — Nothing is more important to us than the way we feel and look, and yet so many do not look or feel as they would like to.

There is not a physical apparatus, no matter what the state of disrepair, that cannot have perfect health. Discover the powerful processes to bring your body to the state of being that pleases you.

AB-9 CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS — While it can be satisfying to read and remember the teachings of the great ones who have gone before us, it is ever more joyous to discover the power of that knowledge within our own being.

Learn the process to go within — as Christ encouraged — to experience the blissful oneness with Christ.

AB-10 ADDICTIONS — Habits, or compulsions, or addictions can range from annoying to destroying. Often, long after they are no longer wanted, they can bind and control your life. As you listen to this recording — you will for the first time understand exactly what the addiction is, and the simple process offered here will free you from it.

AB-11 JOYOUS SURVIVAL — While there are seemingly earth shattering events occurring in greater frequency upon your planet, you need not be affected by them. Discover how to create and control your experience in this seemingly unstable environment.

SPECIAL SUBJECTS TAPES — VOL II AB-12 PIVOTING & POSITIVE ASPECTS * — If I am the "Creator of my own experience", why don't I have more of what I want? Fostered by an action oriented world, most of you do not understand your true nature of attraction, thus the confusion in why you are getting what you are getting.

These processes of pivoting and the book of positive aspects will assist you in the self-discovery of what is important to you, and will put you in the strong, clear place of well-being, so that you can allow what you want into your experience.

AB-13 SEXUALITY — Love, sensuality and the perfect sexual experience — pleasure vs. shame. This misunderstood issue lies at the heart of more disruption in the lives of physical beings than any other issue. Discover the true nature of your being, and release yourself from the negative turmoil that surrounds the subject of sexuality.

AB-14 DEATH — Aging, deterioration and the perfect death experience — choices vs. chances. The gathering of years is a natural experience.

However, deterioration of your physical body is neither natural nor necessary. Be healthy and productive and active and happy until the very day of your chosen re-emergence into the nonphysical.

AB-15 DOLLARS — Abundance, in perfect flow — gaining the freedom that dollars can bring vs. losing your freedom while gaining your dollars.

As there is an abundance of the air you breathe, so there is an abundance of the dollars you seek. Listen and learn how to relax and breathe in the fresh air of freedom offered to you through the abundant flow of dollars.

AB-16 HEALTH, WEIGHT & MIND — The perfect states of weight, health and mind — how can I get there and stay there? Diet plans abound and research continues and yet the number of those unsuccessful at maintenance of satisfactory bodily and mental conditions increases steadily.

Understand how your body functions and why you are as you are — and then begin your swift and steady progress toward that which you desire.

AB-17 MATING — The perfect mate: getting one, being one, evoking one — Attracting vs. attacking. While it is your natural endeavor to cocreate with others, there are few who have discovered the bliss of magnificent relationships. Find out how you can experience the joy of a perfect union.

AB-18 PARENTING — Perfect harmony between my children and me — and me and my parents. Harmonizing vs. traumatizing. While often disconnected from parents, either by death or by distance, your parent/child relationships often have great influence in your experience with your children or with your current life experience. Learn how to perceive what has been in a way that is beneficial to your now rather than destructive. Let that which you have lived be of value.

28

SPECIAL SUBJECT TAPES — VOL II AB-19 CAREER — The perfect career. What, where and when is it — and what can I do about it now? With so many exterior standards or rules regarding the appropriateness of your behavior or choices — in most cases more confusion than clarity abounds. Use this process to discover and attract that which is perfect for you. Stop the futile backwards approach — and begin creating from the inside out.

AB-20 SELF APPRECIATION — If I am so "Perfect as I am" — then why don't I feel better about me than I do? Selfishness vs. selflessness. Your awareness of your perfection was intact as you emerged into this physical body, but it was soon sabotaged by the critical, comparing, judgmental world that surrounded you. Rediscover your true sense of value and wellbeing and perfection.

AB-21 INNER GUIDANCE — Tell me more about my Inner Voice? Because you have thought in terms of being dead or alive, you forget that you are, simultaneously, physically focused while another part of you remains focused from nonphysical perspective. Once remembering that the inner you exists, you may begin to listen to what your Inner Voice is offering. Here is the process for re-establishing that important conscious connection.

Free 90 Minute Introduction To Abraham Tape A stimulating overview of Abraham’s basic message: How to consciously harmonize and interact with your pure, positive Inner Being...How to realize who you are and why you have chosen to be physical in this time...How to joyously and deliberately utilize the Laws of the Universe to Attract all that you are wanting to be or have or do....Also, Jerry & Esther summarize the process of their introduction to Abraham. This cassette is a comfortable means to share Abraham with those who seek a new way of realizing a successful life experience. (Order AB-1. * Include $3.45 S/H) ...I am a medical doctor and have not, before, run across material that has this much potential to create health...Have enjoyed Abraham’s books and tapes beyond any expectations I had when my mother originally sent them. I would like to subscribe to your “Weekly Tape Program”. Thank You. CHRISTIANE NORTHRUP, MD. — MAINE

Quarterly Quotes from Abraham-Hicks

Y

P

our ability to imagine will help the next logical steps come to you faster.

Work the bugs out in your imagination.

You don’t have to build little things and bigger things. You can do it all in your mind. We’re not talking about the next logical action step. Use your imagination until your big dream feels so familiar that the manifestation is the next logical step.

Chicago, IL — G-11/1/98

W want.

eople say, “The joy is in the journey,” but they rarely understand what they are saying. You are in this focused time/space reality with goals and objectives that call you because as you identify a desire it literally summons life through you. Life summoning through you is what it’s all about — not the completion of anything.

Chicago, IL — G-11/1/98

orrying is using your imagination to create something you don’t

Y

ou want the desire because it is the idea or the goal or the Creation that is responsible for a good amount of Life Force to flow through you. The main event is the Life Force that is flowing through you — not the manifestation.

And if you don’t believe us now, wait until that manifestation has popped, and realize that its power to draw life through you will be greatly diminished. That’s why you keep wanting another goal and another goal and another goal...

Kansas City, KS — G-9/27/98

Asheville, NC — G-9/5/98

W

henever something that you think you want does not unfold, it is for one of two reasons: Either your habit of vibration — your belief, your dominant vibration that you are offering relative to the subject — doesn’t match what you think your desire is, or, you and your desire are a perfect match, and this thing you think you want just doesn’t match — and so the Universe doesn’t deliver it.

Chicago, IL — G-11/1/98

M

ost of you have been convinced that there’s only a little bit, and so you play different roles: “Well, I didn’t really want it anyway.” “Well, you know, spirituality and worldliness are two very different things. You cannot be spiritual and have all of these dollars flow to you.”

And you say, “Oh, well, if I had to choose between spiritual and materialistic, I certainly would take spiritual.” And we say, “You cannot avoid being spiritual and you cannot avoid the material. You’re here in material bodies. You intended to manifest spirit into matter. It is why you are here.

Boston, MA — G-10/11/98

S

tart taking pleasure from your inner reality. Most people are approaching this backwards. Most people are saying, “Okay, I want that, and I am not fulfilled until I get that manifestation.” The reason for that promise of manifestation out there, to begin with, is that it gives you the reason to play the game in the inner reality. It is your imagination, it is the feeling of Energy flowing through you that is life.

Kansas City, KS — G-9/27/98

“S

o, why am I who I am, and why am I born to who I am born to, and why is it set up the way it is set up?” We say, “For the fun of it. For the joy of it.

For the expansion of it. For the growth of it. For the difference in it. For the desire producing value in it.”

Tarrytown, NY — G-10/17/98

Y

ou have sole ownership of your vision. And the Universe will give you what you want within your vision.

Quarterly Quotes from Abraham-Hicks

W

What happens with most people is that they muddy their vision with “reality”.

Their vision becomes full of not only what they want but what everybody else thinks about what they want, too. Your work is to clarify and purify your vision so that the vibration that you are offering can then be answered.

Boston, MA — G-10/11/98

hy is your economy more today than in the past? Because human desire has summoned and created. Where is this Well-being coming from? What is the economy? The economy is the exchange of human Energy — it expands proportionate to the ideas or desires that you create.

Boston, MA — G-10/11/98

T

he Universe knows all things and is responding to the vibration that you are sending. When you are sending your vibration on purpose — you are orchestrating what the Universe is aligning for you.

Atlanta, GA — G-9/13/98

Y

ou are an extension of that which is Nonphysical. You are the leading edge — more specifically focused — eyes of that which is Nonphysical. The current you’re using as the Energy that you are creating with — is the Nonphysical.

We are all in this together. You are the more specific eyes of the Nonphysical Energy.

Chicago, IL — G-11/1/98

W

e would focus on everything that mattered to us. It is so satisfying to hold a thought and to find the feeling place and then see the Universe conspire to help you receive it. Oh, co-creation at its best.

Chicago, IL — G-11/1/98

Y

ou, on the leading edge of thought, are here, enormously creatively involved. There’s something so satisfying about asking and deliberately aligning your Energy and deliberately finding the familiar feeling of that — and then seeing it manifest.

Syracuse, NY — G-10/13/98

H

ave you heard the expression, “We’re either growing or we’re dying.”?

Well, what they’re saying is, “You can’t stand still.” We are either giving our attention to where we’re going or we’re giving attention to where we’ve been or we’re giving our attention to where we are, but in any case, wherever we’re giving our attention is our vibration — and the Universe is matching it.

Syracuse, NY — G-10/13/98

W

hen you’re vibrating purely, you get only what’s a match to that.

It’s your ambivalence: “I like that but I don’t like that... I like that but I don’t like that...” that keeps what you like and what you don’t like coming at you all the time. You don’t have to “turn the other cheek” when you are in vibrational harmony only with what you want. Then, only what you want comes.

Chicago, IL — G-11/1/98

A

s you perceive something — you give birth to a thought — and this thought now thinks. Now that it exists, now that it has been conjured, now that it has been focused —now it vibrates. Now,

by Law of Attraction, other thoughts that are vibrationally same will come to it. So it begins its expansion immediately.

PRESENTING A POWERFUL 365 DAY COURSE IN SPIRITUAL PRACTICALITY A DELICIOUS, NEW ADVENTURE INTO A STUDY OF SPIRITUAL PRACTICALITY. This is a one year experiential study of twelve evolving segments, of increasing intensity, of imagining and planning and manifesting.

Instead of 52 weeks some Study Groups may prefer to experience these materials in as little as a twelve week period — those decisions are for each individual or group facilitator to make relative to their cocreational desires.

Habits are usually created slowly. And since a major aspect of the value to you of using this material will be the changing — often slowly — from unwanted habits of thought to habits of thought that are more appropriate to your current conscious desires — the most common use of this calendar will be as a joyous 365 day journey into a new world of leading edge thought and experience.

Begin experiencing the power of this calendar at any time. You don’t have to wait until the first of next year. However, in order to get into time sequence with the calendar — it is best to start at the beginning of any month. Let the first day of your first month be day one (page three) of this calendar.

After over 30 years of studying, teaching and enjoying the art of personal fulfillment, I have long understood the power of clarifying and writing out my decisions in appointment books, journals, organizers, etc. But as the years passed, I became aware that at the most joyous and highly productive segments of my life — I simply carried, daily, a fresh, updated sheet of paper in my pocket. This works!

The first sides of the pages are compilations from the best of the Abraham teachings. The second sides of the pages are designed to accommodate your daily list of things to do — but as the course progresses, you will discover that they will be offering processes and techniques to fit the advancing stages of your progression within these materials.

Your only power to create your life is in this moment, and the Abraham-Hicks Daily Planning Calendar is designed to focus the purest of your intentions to your todays, the time in which you have your power.

• The Abraham-Hicks Calendar/Workbook is a tool to teach others to create, the perfect (by your ever changing standards) adventure in living.

• Use it as a medium of exchange: Exchange any habits of thought, word or action that no longer serve your best interests. Exchange them for bright fresh habits that are more appropriate to who you are in the current moment.

• Exchange any patterns of interaction that are not allowing of each individual’s freedom, growth and joy — for continually changing cocreational interactions that allow the very best from every life you touch.

• Exchange any restrictions to your flow of health, relationships, abundance...Exchange them for an open flow — to and through you — of all that you will come to see as your perfect state of Well-being.

One day at a time you will give your attention to that which feels best to you, and you will, thereby, create the most progressively wonderful life that you can imagine.

From our hearts, Jerry and Esther

Dear Jerry and Esther, My clients (I’m a psychotherapist) love the “Calendar/Workbook.” First it was A New Beginning I, A New Beginning II, Sara and the Foreverness of Friends of a Feather, and now it’s The Science of Deliberate Creation...what a magnificent progression of learning aids to supplement the dazzling Abraham events and tapes!

I was excited when I first heard about the planned calendar and study group workbook, but the completed project literally takes my breath away! This is a treasure!

I appreciate the wealth of so many beautifully stated truths, the accompanying exercises ‚ and the careful and loving effort with which each excerpt was thoughtfully selected from the vast body of Abraham knowledge, to be re-presented to us on these happy pages. The compact size is perfect...how easily the little folded pages slip into a wallet, or purse, or date book. This portable adventure in Spiritual Practicality is wonderfully user-friendly!

The effect of this extra daily measure of Abraham Energy is truly stunning. Manifestation of creations comes faster and faster. Life feels better and better. We all thank you, Jerry and Esther and Abraham, for this latest in an amazing assortment of tools for growth!

With love, A.B. — NY

book: a new beginning I This extraordinary book is powerfully offered by a group of teachers who call themselves Abraham.

They express clearly and simply the laws of the universe, explaining in detail how we can deliberately flow with these laws for the joyful creation of whatever we desire. Abraham describes this as the time of awakening, explaining that each of us chose, with very deliberate intent, this specific time of great change to participate in this physical experience. An empowering, life-changing book that will assist you in seeing your personal life experience as you have never seen it before.

COMMENTS: • Thank you for a delightful book—A NEW BEGINNING I—a life changing book...a joyous do-it-yourself book...I have always known this was an “inside job”, but I’ve not known, before, how to communicate well with the “inside.” — Germany • We are thrilled with the data. Everyone we have sent the book to thinks it is the best book they have ever read. — California • The feedback I’ve gotten on the many ABRAHAM books that I have distributed has been phenomenal and it has come from all over the world. — California • The first edition of A NEW BEGINNING I sold out because readers love the practical ideas of Abraham. In the tradition of Jane Roberts, this refreshing new book reveals a unique blend of new-age thought with the Western desire for “more.” An inspiring self-help classic that gets results.

Softcover. $15.00. 218 pages. ISBN 0-9621219-3-2.

34

book: a new beginning II An uplifting book that strikes a chord with the very core of your being. Written by Abraham to assist you in understanding the absolute connection between your physical self and your inner self.

Abraham puts this physical life experience into perspective as they explain and define who we really are and why we have come forth as physical beings. This book is filled with processes and examples to assist you in making a deliberate conscious connection with your own Inner Being, that you might find the awesome satisfaction with this physical life experience that can only come once this connection is made.

COMMENTS: • Your book, A NEW BEGINNING II, has been my constant companion, now marked and circled on page after page...So— UP with the “Fairies of the Universe” and beautiful music and laughter! — France • ..I hugged the book; I couldn’t put it down for two days....You should see my metaphysical library—and of every book I have, this is the clearest! — Germany • Thank you so much for the book—it is the best yet. I like to open it at random and see what the good word is for the day. — California • Like the book before it, A NEW BEGINNING II is clear, practical, inspiring and empowering with more focus on how to realign with your Inner Being. The bottom line for AbrahamHicks is to choose to feel good in every moment. From that base of joy you will naturally and easily create what you want for yourself and the world.

I have just now been with the 2nd tape, and it is profoundly resonating within me in a kind of paradoxical giggle...as I feel like a kid eating an ice-cream cone with sprinkles on it and simultaneously experiencing the profound tranquility and excitement of an adult who organically knows everything is all right as I continue to have the appetite for more.

G-series tapes summer, 1998 Monitoring your vibrational meter G-6/14/98 — Abraham’s tenth year with Unity of Fort Collins. She wants to do like Esther does. Faced with a “peanut butter” project at work. She loves their personal experience with Abraham. Allowing, accepting or resisting “Senior Citizenship”. To remove his attention from his diabetes. Let’s talk about conditional living.

G-6/20/98 — Let’s talk about your infinite Vibrational Meter. Why didn’t her furiousness create worse results? How can we shift our protective stance? Rebuilding your body weight belief system. When “terrible” things happen to innocent babies? Gerontologist seeks an “ageless” life until death. Abraham’s Prosperity Process and robust “agelessness”.

G-6/21/98 — Are the pendulum’s answers valid regarding others? Chiropractor questions Non-physical aspects of healing. What if your rules required bigamy? He’s got alien bones on his mind. She plummets through extremes of career contrast. Staying in a state of perpetual creative motion. Should parent protect child from a dis-empowering teacher?

G-6/27/98 — You have this Vibrational Meter within you. Why does Abraham neither laugh nor cry? “Can’t worry and love children at same time?” Loves to serve, but money evokes her fear. When alien thoughts create alien thought forms. Climb aboard a butterfly, and use your imagination. “Live in the world but not of it”?

G-7/11/98 — How much allowance to give to children? She gained 40 pounds in three years. Why to begin playing Abraham’s Prosperity Game. Abraham of the Jews, Christians and Muslims. To be less sensitive to influence of others? To communicate relief to her ailing grandmother. Where was Abraham before the earth evolved?

G-7/25/98 — Aerial view of your Rockets of Desire. Tears, at births, weddings and funerals? Seeking inspired careers in alternative traditional healing. His patent has been infringed; now what? Is there a cosmic form of birth control? When one’s unwanted lover keeps hanging on? Son resists thanking grandfather for unwanted.

G-8/1/98 — What does Abraham mean by “the Universe”? Why he buys high and sells low. Rockets of Desire, connecting to your Well-being. Retirement, as not necessarily in one’s best interest. Wanting to believe that “All is Well.” She remembers Grandmother’s teeth in a glass. Would Jesus do it differently this time?

G-8/2/98 — What would Christ say to us today? Caring for this beautiful new baby girl? Why is she collecting “inappropriate jerks”. Best to ask for specifics, or in general? Magical appearance of a second career decision. How about this attorney’s unforgiving nature? My body, my PMS, my unwanted cramps?

Visionary or Actionary?

Harmony or Cacophony?

The visionaries are the reason for the massive employment in your world and the high economy. You don’t meet them every day because they’re not out there in the trenches. They usually don’t have their sleeves rolled up, and they are usually not mixing among the others. They’re meeting on islands.

They are living the good life. They are connected to Energy Stream. They are visionaries. They are the reason that your technology is where it is. Are they scientists? No. Are they the mathematicians? No. Are they the bricklayers? No. All of those magnificent beings are an important part of the cocreative mix. Every one of them is as important as any other, even as important as the visionary himself. But the visionary is the one who holds the hope or the idea and believes it so much that he holds a guiding light that Law of Attraction can actualize around.

Is it possible to be the visionary and the actionary of your own life? Not only possible — it’s the way most of you intended it to be. It’s the best of all worlds. What can be more exhilarating than to find a dream from the contrast, to fixate on the dream and let it give you pleasure as it grows — and then to watch Law of Attraction bring it into manifestation while you help with your action? Does it get any better than that? You didn’t think so as you made the decision to come forth into these physical bodies. You said, “This is the best time in all eternity for a Creator to Create.”

You have more harmony points with every person on the planet than you have disharmony points — because there is much more of you that is in harmony with your Core than you realize or that most of you allow. The closer you come to being in harmony with your Source Energy, the more in harmony you are with each other.

When you think about other people and what they think of you, do you understand that what they think of you has very little to do with what you are? It has mostly to do with the habits of thought that they have developed. It has more to do with them as thinkers than it does with you as the subject of their thought.

If nothing is more important to you than that you feel good, you can form a fantasy about someone who is in your life and they will begin to modify to meet your fantasy — because Law of Attraction is a very powerful thing.

When you decide that you want to feel good, and you reach for the vibration that feels good to you and you establish that as your Tone — either the people around you will be uplifted to join you in that vibration or, if their vibration is already very well chosen otherwise — they will clatter right out of your experience. But what happens to most of you is, while they are clattering out of your experience, you notice they’re clattering. You begin to clatter too, and then they clatter right back into your experience — and you clatter together miserably and continually.

vibration. High, because there’s not resistance. Fast, because there’s no resistance. Pure, because there’s no resistance. So, here is your cork bobbing up here in this pure, positive Energy place.

Now take hold of your cork and hold it under the water. That’s what negative emotion is. The good news is, in the moment that you turn your attention away from whatever it is that is causing you to vibrate here, whatever it is that you have included in your vibration that’s holding you in that lower, slower vibration — in the moment that you turn your attention from it — your cork bobs right back to the surface. Most of you have heard us offer that analogy over and over and over again, and yet most of you still believe that you have to somehow pull your way back up the vibrational ladder.

It is not a matter of deserving the higher vibration. You don’t earn the higher vibration. That’s natural to you. You just have to ignore whatever it is that has brought you to the lower vibration — and your vibration will go right back where it belongs.

When you sleep at night, that’s what happens. When you meditate, that’s what happens. When you appreciate, that’s what happens. When you are basking, that’s what happens. Anytime that you are not looking at something that is vibrating lower and slower, and therefore including it in your vibration, your cork floats back up where it belongs. So, your work isn’t nearly as complicated as you think.

vibrate there, and then you say, “That is a very bad thing. That thing has made me feel very bad. That thing should go away. We should have a law. We should do something to separate that from me, because as I observe it, I don’t feel very good.” And what we are wanting you to realize is, it’s not about needing to deal with all those things. As observers, that’s your conclusion. You say, “Since I haven’t learned to flow Energy, and I have no clue about the Energy I’m flowing, all I’m doing is running around and observing, and when I observe good things, I feel good and good things come to me, but when I observe bad things, I feel bad and bad things come to me. So we need to, as a people, get rid of all bad things. And if we could just get rid of all bad things, then we’d have peace on Earth.” Not passion on Earth. Peace on Earth. We would have sameness. We would have absence of desire. We would have ending of beingness.

If we could eliminate contrast, then we would eliminate choice, and if we could eliminate choice, then we would eliminate asking.

If we could eliminate asking, we would eliminate summoning of Source, we would eliminate leading edge thought — and we would eliminate eternity.

It is the contrast that puts the eternalness in eternity. It is the contrast that you think you don’t want, that you really do want. You don’t want to get rid of contrast. You want to learn to feel what you’re giving your attention to — and be more deliberate in your choice of vibration.

It may make it sound more complicated than it really is when you call it a science. “The Science of Deliberate Creation.”

But the reason that we have encouraged the terminology of “science” is because it is never-ending. There is always more to discover as you apply these very basic and always eternal, ever consistent rules, or laws, to your ever-changing experience.

Passionate Observers The reason many of you have felt great complication in your physical experience is because you have become such passionate observers, and as you observe, whatever you are observing dictates your vibration. You are, for the most part, vibrational reactionaries. Whatever you are observing is vibrating. You observe it. As you observe it, you include it, and then you

It is the best of all worlds to be here in these physical bodies, focused in this time of higher contrast than ever before.

Which means, more people are asking than ever before, which means, more Energy is flowing than ever before. As Deliberate Creators, and as teachers of that, this is your heyday.

vibrationally, but we also think it is a good idea to evaluate the content of what is manifesting — in order to understand more clearly what your offering has been.

Don’t be guarded or protective or worried that you might offer a vibration that might net you some result that you don’t want — because if that were to happen, you would now stand in a new place with a clearer idea of what you desire. And you can now offer the clearer Tone that matches what you are now wanting. There is no danger for you.

One More Time: Through your vibration, you communicate with All-That-Is. Everything in the Universe has a vibrational basis, and it is through your vibrational offering and by the powerful Law of Attraction that you come together.

Are you wanting to deliberately offer your own Vibrational Tone? When you are remembering, you are offering it. When you are imagining, you are offering it. When you are observing, you are offering it. This vibrational offering — sort of like a radio signal — is projecting from you at all times that you have conscious awareness. You are always projecting your signal — and the Universe is always responding to it.

Buffer of Time You live in this time/space reality where there is a glorious buffer of time between the offering of your vibration and the yielding of the manifestation. And even if you are not aware of what you have set in motion, and what you are in the process of creating, even if you are oblivious to what you are flowing and you are oblivious to what is coming to you until it absolutely gets there — still, it does not matter.

When you are living something that you do not want, out of that contrasting experience comes a very clear, loud projection of desire from you — and that new desire then begins a whole other range of attraction.

Setting Your Tone It is always true that what you think and, therefore, what you feel, and what you are getting back in terms of manifestation are always a vibrational match — and you are wanting to begin to deliberately offer your vibration. We call it setting your own Tone.

Many of you who are students of, and teachers of, Deliberate Creation are coming to this strong desire of projecting your own deliberate Vibrational Tone. And what that really means — it’s a rather simple transition for most of you — it means that you must deliberately make the decision that you will offer your vibration by deliberate intent rather than by default.

All things come to you — all things come to you — all things come to you in response to your vibrational offering. And so, we think it would be a good idea to pay attention to what you are offering,

Never Done or Wrong You never get it done. Everything that you focus upon and everything that manifests leaves you in another place to focus for a continual manifestation. You will never be in place where you will say, “There, now, my vibrational offering is complete.” You are eternal beings. You will always be attracting unto the perspective that is you.

You cannot get it wrong. With each moment of awareness of that which you have created, is also a vibrational offering that is now attracting unto you, still.

Wherever you stand now is wide open to any kind of change that you might desire.

When you see something you want, by Some want to do that. You can release your attention to it, you are including it and most of what you are living and replace inviting it.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS When you utilize a drug or alcohol, your cork floats, in the beginning, because just like hypnosis or meditation — you are distracted from whatever thought that is holding you in the slower vibration.

And so, when you’re distracted from what is holding you there — your vibration raises. That’s why they call it a high.

This is the first thing that, as a counselor, you must accept so that you can convey it, vibrationally, even if you don’t do it in words: What they are addicted to is feeling better. What they are addicted to is feeling better. What they are addicted to is the higher vibration. And, bless their hearts, they’ve been banging around until they found some way that they could facilitate that for themselves. And then you say, “No. This is ultimately bad for you. It makes you do bad things. And so, we will take this method that you have found — that is the only method that you have been able to find for getting yourself into a higher vibration — we’re going to take that away from you because it isn’t good for you. We’re going to label you and condemn you and scorn you.”

Much of the population is perfectly willing to be miserable, but some of you are less willing to be miserable.

We Encourage Connection We’re not encouraging addiction. We are encouraging connection. But sometimes it helps if you can convey to them why they have had those impulses. And some of them are ready to hear that from you, and it makes perfect sense to them, and some of them are not. We would rather see someone with feeling of relief. We would not take their substance from them until we had given them an alternative bridge to connection. But so many people are pushing so hard against the addiction itself, because they don’t understand it, that those words would not be well received by them. They think that the first thing we’ve got to do is get it away from them.

If the users were to withdraw the addictive substance from their system, after about three days, the cells would

Assisting With Addictions QUESTION: I am a counselor and I work with a number of people who are seeking assistance or release from a variety of kinds of addictions: drugs, gambling, food, alcohol. I’m wanting to be of the greatest assistance I can be to them, and I’d like your assistance.

ABRAHAM: Well, the thing about all of those addictions is that there is another hunger that is deeper, that is beyond the cellular hunger for the substance.

Each of you, as you come forth into these bodies, are full of this Nonphysical Energy Stream that created you and that sustains you. You are spirit embodied in this flesh, blood, bone apparatus, but then, as you bang around for a while and you see disapproval in the eyes of so many, and you, every day, pick up something else that you push against — little by little you become familiar with disallowing the Energy Stream.

All feel the diminishment, but some feel it more than others. Those who come forth with the intense decision that they will stay connected to the Stream, those who have come forth with very strong determination to express what they know about this Energy Stream — they suffer greatly when they choose vibrations that disallow it fully.

But almost nobody is talking about vibration. It would be a rare alcoholics meeting or drug counseling session where anyone would say to the one across the table, “Well, you know, you’re holding thoughts that are keeping you vibrationally separated from who you really are.” And yet, that is what is at the heart of it. And so, that void that they are feeling which is the void of joy, the void of clarity, the void of Energy, the void of life, that is the void they are trying to fill by buying one more thing and bringing it home or by utilizing a substance that distracts them, in this moment, from the things that cause them to push against.

44

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS stop calling, and the physical craving would subside, temporarily. But the reason that they went there to begin with has not been tended to. And so, almost as soon as they turn around, something is going to remind them of something that’s going to take them back into that lower vibration — and then they are going to long for the feeling of relief that the substance gave them.

Three Days From Freedom Any physical addiction — it doesn’t matter how long they’ve been taking it or how full of it their body is — any addiction, would, between three and thirty days, be completely cleared from the system. Usually closer to three days than thirty days. But it is the emotional craving that must be tended to.

What you have to say to a person, and help them to understand, is, “You are perfectly all right as you are, and it’s nobody’s business what you’ve chosen.”

But that’s not the way most of the programs go. Most of the programs say, “You must admit what a rat fink you are. We have a step that says you’ve got to go to all of those people that you have wronged and you’ve got to open your heart and you’ve got to admit how unworthy and rotten you are.” It was that feeling that drove them to drink to begin with, so now, what you’re saying to them is, “We’re going to take the substance away that gives you any relief, and we’re going to poke a poker in your ribs until you want it again. We’re going to torture you back into the very reason that you drank to begin with — but we’re not going to let you drink.” And they say, “Okay.

Then I’ll jump off a bridge.” Or they will replace it with something else that is equally condemned, and probably illegal, which brings all sorts of other worrisome thoughts.

We Would Soothe Them What would we do if we were standing in your physical shoes whether we were a counselor or a friend or even a stranger? One who is connected to the

45

Stream is more powerful than millions who are not. If we had the blessed opportunity of having someone like that in our gaze, we would say, “I wouldn’t worry about it.” We would do everything that’s in our power to soothe — to soothe the void. We would appreciate, we would praise, we would point out positive aspects, we would show them how to pivot, we would teach them about emotions, we would show them the difference between how this thought feels and how this thought feels — and we would encourage them to choose the thought that feels better.

Teach Them Selfishness Most of all, you have to teach them selfishness. They have to be selfish enough that they don’t care what somebody else thinks — and that’s not an easy thing. You all have integrated yourself into a society where you very much care what people think. That is the hardest hurdle for most of you to overcome. You do care what others think because you have trained yourself, most of you, to get almost 100% of your connection to Energy from somebody who is physically focused and approving of you.

In your early stages, is where most of you begin vying for approval. You began standing on your head, but what you discover is, you cannot get that Energy Stream from someone who is not connected to the Energy Stream. If they are not selfish enough to be connected, they’ve got nothing to give you. Even though they want to. Your parents want to give you everything that you need, but they can’t give it to you if they’re not connected to it. You have all kinds of people depending on each other for their connection. That’s why Teachers like us and Teachers like you have come into this physical time/space reality — to remind you all how to make your own connection.

To help you find your connection with Core Energy so that you can set your Tone and never again be dependent upon what somebody else thinks about you. So that if you have a rough day, you don’t need

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS alcohol or drugs. You meditate and reconnect, or you quiet your mind, or you appreciate and reconnect, or you choose one of hundreds of pleasant images that you’ve been practicing that you keep in your pocket. You get one of them out and roll it around in your mind. You show yourself how to adjust your vibration.

You never again depend upon the conditions to adjust your vibration. You leave behind what you have learned about conditional love, and you become one who loves unconditionally — and in order to do that, you say, “Nothing is more important than that I feel good.” And in the beginning, sometimes that means, “I need a drug. I need some alcohol. I need a friend who is connected. I need a stepping stone to help me to connect.” And that’s why we say we wouldn’t take the drug away. We would allow the drug while we teach the greater message.

life’s better than mine.” And then the very wise manipulator said, “Oh, you cannot judge by your life here on earth. It is after you die that the rewards and punishments are given.” So then the assumption was, the better it feels, the worse it is. “I guess I’m supposed to suffer and struggle and deprive myself of anything that I might desire so that in heaven I will then receive my reward.” And we say, “That is the screwiest one of all.” Because Law of Attraction is not different in the physical than it is in the Nonphysical. As you learn to find the vibration of connection — the vibration of connection is always yours.

You Are Pure Energy When you leave this physical realm and release your attention from it, you leave behind all vibration of the lower, slower nature, and your vibration raises to the highest level. And so, there is no way that you could get so bad or so negative or so disconnected that it would affect your afterlife — because in the moment of your transition, you are Pure Positive Energy.

Law of Attraction is responding to you eternally. And whatever you are offering, vibrationally, is what you are reaping in terms of manifestation — and that consistency is the most powerful and important part of our physical and Nonphysical Universe.

You got much more than you bargained for there, but it is at the heart of everything you ask.

The more detail you give to your vision, the more you allow the Universe to go to work and line things up — and often you can work the bugs out of it in your imagination before you take your first action. And if there are no bugs to work out of it, or no big ones — then your feeling of diving in is a lot stronger.

Excerpted from Abraham-Hicks Workshop Kansas City, KS — G-9/27/98

The Children Know Why doesn’t everyone who drinks become an alcoholic? Why doesn’t everyone who uses the drugs...? Children have a hard time with this. All of these drug campaigns, “Drugs are bad.” They know that the peak performers, the heroes, the athletes are well involved. They know.

They know the signals. They know the codes. They know the symbols. They know the signs. They know the lies.

They know. You see? So people who don’t know, say, “Don’t do that.” While people who are doing that are excelling.

It’s the same old thing that happened when those who wanted to control said, “Keep these rules and be among the blessed, and break those rules and be condemned.” And then, too many people saw too many people breaking the rules and being blessed, and they said, “Hey! Something’s screwy here. I’m doing everything that’s on this list, and I’m not being blessed. And they’re breaking all the rules, and they’re abundant. They’re

ABOUT THE AUTHORS Excited about the clarity and practicality of the translated word from ABRAHAM, Jerry and Esther Hicks began, in 1986, disclosing their ABRAHAM experience to a handful of close business associates. Then, recognizing the practical results being received by those persons who began plying ABRAHAM with meaningful personal questions regarding their finances, bodily conditions, and relationships...the Hickses made a conscious decision to allow ABRAHAM’S teachings to become Esther & Jerry Hicks available to an ever widening circle of seekers. And that circle continues to expand — even as you read this page.

Jerry and Esther have now published more than 300 Abraham-Hicks books, cassettes and videos, and have been presenting open group interactive workshops in about 40 cities a year to those who gather to participate in this progressive stream of thought.

Although worldwide attention has been given by leading edge thinkers to this Science of Deliberate Creation who, in turn, incorporate many of ABRAHAM’S concepts into their books, lectures, sermons, screenplays, scripts...the primary spread of this material has been from person to person — as individuals begin to discover the value of these materials in their practical, personal experience.

ABRAHAM, a group of obviously evolved teachers, speak their broader Non-physical perspective through the physical apparatus of Esther. Speaking to our level of comprehension, from their present moment to our now, through a series of loving, allowing, brilliant yet comprehensively simple, recordings in print and in sound — they guide us to a clear connection with our Inner Being — they guide us to self-upliftment from our total self.

COMMENTS FROM READERS & LISTENERS: ...It’s hard to believe that life could be so simple and so joyous and that it could take me so many years to find out how to do it...So, thank you, so much, for making an already good life even better! (With lots of good feelings) SC — PA ...I’ve been a “searcher,” “seeker,” “sharer” since I was a teen. My middle name was purported to be “Why?” The information from Abraham is so down-to-earth, useful, compelling, exciting, sensible, practical, empowering, clear, usable. I’m a marvelous deliberate creator now.

Thanks for putting the “fun” back into physical life. JS — AZ ...Am so delighted to be reading your books, listening to your tapes, attending your seminars and talking to each of you on the phone. I am so happy and getting happier and clearer every day. My life has been leading to this point, and it feels like the icing on the cake. I know everything will just get better, although it’s hard to know how. What a powerful gift you’ve given us — the recognition of our ability to create the life we want, and the tools to carry out the plan. Thank you for sharing. — CA

The Beasts Know It

I

f you know that all is well, you know all you need to know. And if you know life is supposed to be fun, you know more than almost anybody else knows. And if you know that the way you feel is your indicator of how connected you are to Source, then you know that which only a handful of Deliberate Creators, respective to the total population, really know. The beasts all know it.

Your animals know that all is well. Your animals live in the moment.

They understand the power of their now. They expect the Universe to yield to them.

They don’t worry or fret or conjure or make laws or rules or try to regulate. They are Pure Positive Energy. Your beasts vibrate more on the Energy scale of contentment than of passion. Their desire was set forth from Nonphysical, and continues to be set forth by those, like you, who want Energy balance, who want sustenance.

The difference between the beast and the human is that the beast is more general in its intent. The human is usually less blended, usually less allowing of the Energy to flow — but is more specific. And that is why the human is seen to be the Creator while the beast is more the balancer of Energy.

Your Rockets of Desire

A

ll of your power is in the now — because all of your vibration is in the now. So when contrast gives birth to desire, bless that desire. Feel the power of the passion of that desire, because the Universe is hearing your rocket. And when you relax, the Universe will answer your rocket of desire.

Esther saw a documentary where they were tapping into thunderstorms to find lightening bolts. They were sending a rocket up which was hooked with a wire to their equipment, and they wanted the lightening to strike the rocket because they were wanting to measure the current. And Esther said, “Abraham, is this like that rocket of desire that you are talking about?” And we said, “It is very much like that.”

The contrast gives birth to your desire and then the Universe matches your rocket and brings it right back down to you. And so, as you are moving through the contrast of your physical experience, bless the contrast that gives you the desire. In that desire, you are summoning Life Force, and if you can learn to relax in the midst of that desire — more good than you have ever imagined will begin to flow into your experience.

Feel the power and the freshness of your now: You decipher the contrast.

You know what you don’t want. You send out your rocket of desire of what you do want — and now you stand in a fresh new place; you want in a fresh way that you have never wanted before. And that’s what life is. In that fresh wanting, you summon another dose of Energy.

If you can begin to savor the mere fact that you have desire right now, and you would stop trying so hard to have that desire be fulfilled and manifested in some physical format — then you would have it.
