Full transcript
- 0:00You're understanding that you are source
- 0:03energy expressing through these physical
- 0:05bodies.
- 0:07You're understanding that you are
- 0:09eternal beings, so much more than this
- 0:11one perspective. But oh, what a glorious
- 0:14experience it is when you allow
- 0:19your physical human personality
- 0:22to be vibrationally attuned to your
- 0:25source energy. It just does not get any
- 0:28better than that.
- 0:29And of course, you really can't stop
- 0:32that from happening. That just happens.
- 0:34In other words, you would not even be
- 0:36here if that were not happening.
- 0:39But you, who are beginning to understand
- 0:43what we have called science of
- 0:44deliberate creation
- 0:46more recently, art of allowing that you
- 0:50can control the degree to which you
- 0:52allow who you really are to flow. In
- 0:56fact, that's what allowing means.
- 0:58Allowing means how much of who I really
- 1:01am am I allowing by my choice of thought
- 1:05to be present in this moment.
- 1:07When you're ornery, you're pinching some
- 1:09of it off.
- 1:11That's why you feel ornery.
- 1:13Really.
- 1:15When you're allowing who you really are
- 1:17to flow, you feel good. You feel as we
- 1:20feel. You feel clear. You feel sure. You
- 1:24feel invincible. You feel powerful. You
- 1:26feel eager. You feel adventurous. You
- 1:29feel kind. You feel willing. You feel
- 1:32compassionate. You feel understanding.
- 1:36You feel like giving others the benefit
- 1:38of the doubt. When you're edgy, when
- 1:40you're ornery, when you're
- 1:43feeling a little vulnerable, or when
- 1:44you're feeling
- 1:46defensive
- 1:48when you're feeling guilty or blameful,
- 1:50when you're feeling fearful
- 1:52these feelings are indications that
- 1:54you're pinching off who you are, and
- 1:56it's no wonder you feel bad. When you
- 1:58pinch off who you are, that's what
- 2:00feeling bad is.
- 2:02Instead of saying, "I think I feel bad
- 2:04because you said such and such to me."
- 2:06or "I think I feel bad because outside
- 2:09circumstances have
- 2:11happened in this way." We would like you
- 2:13to stop for a moment and say, "Oh, wait
- 2:15a minute. I feel bad for only one reason
- 2:18and one reason only. I feel bad because
- 2:21I'm not allowing
- 2:22who I really am to flow.
- 2:24And this is what it feels like when I
- 2:27pinch
- 2:28that off.
- 2:31We say, "Somebody should do something
- 2:32about that."
- 2:35>> [laughter]
- 2:37>> And guess what?
- 2:39There is only one person who can.
- 2:42So, we have a new game for you to play.
- 2:45And the game goes like this.
- 2:47I've decided in my physical human form
- 2:50that I'm going to take complete ultimate
- 2:54only responsibility for everything that
- 2:56happens to me.
- 2:58I will not ever again
- 3:00It'll take a little getting used to.
- 3:03I'm not ever again going to blame
- 3:05somebody else for where I am, for how
- 3:08I'm feeling, for what's happening to me.
- 3:12Can you imagine if everyone would say,
- 3:16"It's my job. My life is my job."
- 3:20So, you don't blame your mate anymore.
- 3:22You don't blame your kids. You don't
- 3:23blame your parents. You don't blame your
- 3:25teacher. You don't blame circumstances.
- 3:27You say, "I take full responsibility."
- 3:30The reason that this is ultimately so
- 3:32satisfying is because you have only ever
- 3:35always only ever always only ever always
- 3:38been the only ever always one who could
- 3:40only ever always do anything about
- 3:43anything in your life experience. Nobody
- 3:45else can do anything. In other words,
- 3:47asking someone else to change, even if
- 3:49they're willing, even if they can do it
- 3:51for five or 10 or 15 or 20 years, even
- 3:53if you can get somebody else to contain
- 3:55their behavior so that you will feel
- 3:57better, you are the only one ever that
- 4:00could do anything about it.
- 4:02And so, when you stop and think about it
- 4:04and you think
- 4:06>> [sighs and gasps]
- 4:07>> Let's talk about the uprising, the
- 4:09seemingly eternal uprising in the Middle
- 4:11East.
- 4:13Everyone thinking that somebody else
- 4:15should do something different.
- 4:17And nobody else willing to do it
- 4:19different for the other. And we say,
- 4:21"Can you imagine how peaceful and
- 4:23wonderful experiences could be if each
- 4:26individual would understand that, hey, I
- 4:29can do something. I can do something."
- 4:31And what is it that we're asking you to
- 4:32do? We're asking you to choose any
- 4:34thought, any word, any action that
- 4:37allows who you are to come back in this
- 4:40moment.
- 4:41So,
- 4:43you are so angry at your mate or your
- 4:46mother
- 4:47or someone, someone you work with,
- 4:49someone you work for.
- 4:51And they just seem to be ruining your
- 4:53life
- 4:55because they will not change their
- 4:57behavior.
- 4:58You do not seem to be important enough
- 5:00to them
- 5:01to change their behavior, which hurts
- 5:03your feelings a great deal.
- 5:07And then you discover, "Wait a minute.
- 5:10They don't have to change a thing in
- 5:12order for me to feel better. I can start
- 5:14looking for positive aspects.
- 5:17I can look for things within them that
- 5:20make me feel good." "Oh, that's
- 5:21impossible." you say.
- 5:24"There is so much that is bad and not
- 5:26much that is good. In fact, I haven't
- 5:28seen a glimmer of anything good for so
- 5:29very long." And we say,
- 5:32"Are there other subjects to which you
- 5:33could give your attention?"
- 5:37"Well, maybe."
- 5:38you say reluctantly.
- 5:41"My dog.
- 5:44My dog is easy to love or my cat." And
- 5:46we say, "Do whatever it takes to find
- 5:49something to be your object of
- 5:50attention. And as you give your
- 5:52attention to something that allows you
- 5:54to feel good,
- 5:56you've done something about this
- 5:58relationship that was bothering you.
- 6:00In fact, if you will make it your work
- 6:03to feel good,
- 6:04Every relationship that you have
- 6:07will be one that pleases you.
- 6:10Now, that's offensive to some of you
- 6:11because you've been holding others as
- 6:13being responsible for you feeling good
- 6:15for so long that it's sort of hard to
- 6:18let loose of that. It's sort of hard to
- 6:21let them be whatever they need to be
- 6:23while you selectively choose whatever it
- 6:25is that you need to choose to feel good.
- 6:27And we know, friends, it would be a lot
- 6:29easier for you to do this if they'd
- 6:30learned it first.
- 6:35>> [laughter]
- 6:37>> But you can't wait for them to figure
- 6:38this out. And you don't need to because
- 6:41once you figure it out, your life is
- 6:43going to feel so much better.
- 6:46It does not matter how many aspects
- 6:50of whatever it is you're giving your
- 6:51attention to that's making you feel bad.
- 6:54It does not matter how many negative
- 6:55aspects there are. It is our absolute
- 6:58knowing that in there somewhere are some
- 7:00positive aspects.
- 7:02Now, it might be that the way your
- 7:04relationship has been evolving that you
- 7:07have begun to focus upon the aspects
- 7:10that you don't like. So, you have
- 7:12activated that part of your vibration to
- 7:14an art.
- 7:16So that when you come together with this
- 7:18person or these people, that what they
- 7:21mostly show you is that part that is
- 7:23most active in your vibration. Did you
- 7:25hear that?
- 7:26What they mostly show you is the part
- 7:29that is most active in your vibration.
- 7:32It's such a wonderful thing. Did you
- 7:34hear that? What What they keep showing
- 7:37you is the part of them that is most
- 7:39active in your vibration. And all this
- 7:41time you thought it was their doing.
- 7:44It is the part that is most active in
- 7:46your vibration. That's why when we say
- 7:48to you, "Somebody should do something
- 7:50about it." The person that we're always
- 7:52talking about is you, not them, you.
- 7:56Because Oh, we know they could stand on
- 7:59their head and they could work really
- 8:01hard to only show you things that would
- 8:04please you. But you know, you're sort of
- 8:05fickle in what you want from moment to
- 8:08moment. And they're outside of your
- 8:10emotional guidance system. They've got
- 8:12to find ways of pleasing you based upon
- 8:15the letters that you've written or the
- 8:16prenuptial agreements that you've
- 8:18signed.
- 8:19Or the arguments that you've had where
- 8:22you've come to I promise I will never do
- 8:24that again. In other words, it's so
- 8:25awkward when you try to control the way
- 8:28you feel by controlling their behavior
- 8:30from the outside. We've never seen it
- 8:32work, not for very long. That's why it's
- 8:34easier to just keep moving to a new
- 8:36relationship where you have not
- 8:38activated in you the negative aspects of
- 8:41them.
- 8:42A new relationship is easier because you
- 8:45don't know much about them until you
- 8:47have that dinner when you say, "Tell me
- 8:48about yourself."
- 8:52Very good in coming together vows would
- 8:55be, "I promise you I will never tell you
- 8:57anything about my past if you will
- 8:58promise me that you will never tell me
- 8:59anything about your past. Let's start
- 9:02just start in this fresh place. Please
- 9:03don't tell me about any of your failures
- 9:05because as sure as you do, I'm going to
- 9:07activate them in my vibration and then
- 9:09I'm going to suck them right out of you
- 9:11and then our relationship is just going
- 9:13to be like all the other lousy
- 9:15relationships you and I have ever had.
- 9:17Let's not do that. Let's start fresh."
- 9:20So, tomorrow what we want you all to do
- 9:22is leave everyone that you know.
- 9:28Go out into the desert all alone.
- 9:31Meditate and start your lives over
- 9:35with all fresh new vibration. So, what
- 9:38we're getting at here, of course you're
- 9:39not going to do that and we really do
- 9:41not want you to do that. It would be
- 9:42easier if you could do that. But, if you
- 9:45were to do that, if you were to start
- 9:46all over with all fresh new
- 9:48relationships
- 9:51without understanding
- 9:53what we're really going to talk about
- 9:54all day here today, before long you'll
- 9:56be right back in the same situation
- 9:58where you'd need to leave all of those
- 9:59relationships, too. Because you have
- 10:02habits of vibration within you that
- 10:04evoke what happens in your life. And all
- 10:07this time you've been thinking that it
- 10:08was to do with other people. And it was
- 10:10never to do with other people. It's only
- 10:12about what you activate in your
- 10:13vibration.
- 10:15And then you say, and you're right, you
- 10:17say,
- 10:18"But it wouldn't be active in my
- 10:20vibration if they weren't showing it to
- 10:22me all over the place."
- 10:24And we say, "Yes, but they're showing
- 10:26you a lot of things. If you will be more
- 10:28selective in your sifting, if it will
- 10:30matter more to you
- 10:33how you feel
- 10:35than anything else,
- 10:37then what your experience will be is one
- 10:39of bliss because as you look at a
- 10:42relationship that has been happening for
- 10:44a while, and you deliberately look for
- 10:46things that make you feel good, and you
- 10:48practice looking at things that make you
- 10:51feel good until
- 10:54you activate within yourself that
- 10:56vibration, then what happens is
- 11:00those people that you're interacting
- 11:01with literally rise to match your
- 11:04vibration. We're not kidding you about
- 11:06that.
- 11:07You've seen it sometimes with children.
- 11:09You'll see a child with one person
- 11:11behave one way, and the same child with
- 11:13another person
- 11:15behave entirely differently. And you
- 11:17say, "I cannot even believe that that is
- 11:19the same child." And what is happening
- 11:21is different people have activated
- 11:23different vibrations. In other words,
- 11:25you are multi-faceted beings.
- 11:28Someone said to us recently,
- 11:30after talking through tears about some
- 11:33unpleasant things that were happening,
- 11:36"I think this happened when I was in the
- 11:37second grade."
- 11:39And now, this is an adult, children of
- 11:42her own.
- 11:44"I believe that this happened to me when
- 11:46I was in the second grade."
- 11:47And we say, "We think so, too. We think
- 11:50that things happen along your physical
- 11:52trail, and some of them stand out really
- 11:54big in your life experience. Some of
- 11:57them are so bold and so big, or they get
- 12:00your attention in some dynamic way for a
- 12:02period of time, and they cause you to
- 12:04learn, sometimes over a gradual long
- 12:06hammering steadily time, and sometimes
- 12:09in a very short, very fast, very
- 12:11flamboyant, very dramatic time. In other
- 12:14words, if when you're four, the train
- 12:17runs over your toe, you will always have
- 12:19a different relationship with trains
- 12:21than most people that you know. When
- 12:23things happen like that, it causes you
- 12:25to begin to offer a vibration in a more
- 12:29dynamic way. And then what happens is,
- 12:31without knowing it, you practice those
- 12:33vibrations. You talk about them, you
- 12:35talk about them over dinner, you think
- 12:37about them, you dream about them, you
- 12:39write letters about them. Now you're
- 12:40writing electronic mail letters about
- 12:43them. In other words, you find yourself
- 12:44communicating about what your lives have
- 12:47been or about what your lives be. And so
- 12:49you keep alive a vibration within you
- 12:52that is the point of attraction. You
- 12:53remember that, don't you?
- 12:55This is a vibrational universe and
- 12:57everything is about vibration.
- 12:58Everything is about law of attraction.
- 13:00It is a universe of inclusion, there is
- 13:02no exclusion. So whatever it is you're
- 13:05offering vibrationally, that represents
- 13:07your life experience. So let's say that
- 13:10you have a particular poignant
- 13:11relationship with someone when you are
- 13:13very young, and that relationship
- 13:15causes, for whatever reason, a vibration
- 13:18to be activated within you. Maybe you
- 13:20begin to feel vulnerable, maybe somebody
- 13:22picks on you on a pretty regular basis,
- 13:24and you develop some patterns of
- 13:26vulnerability or defensiveness.
- 13:29And then you practice them and practice
- 13:31them and practice them so much so that
- 13:33almost everybody that shows up in your
- 13:35experience treats you in similar ways
- 13:37until later people say about you, "Well,
- 13:39you have a chip on your shoulder." or
- 13:41"You are very defensive." When you come
- 13:43into your first relationship that begins
- 13:45to evolve pretty quickly. And then, in
- 13:47psychotherapy, it is determined, "Well,
- 13:49that happened in second grade." And we
- 13:51say, [clears throat]
- 13:52"A lot of things happened in second
- 13:54grade and third grade and fourth grade.
- 13:55A lot of things happened. A lot of
- 13:57things happened yesterday, some things
- 13:58will happen today." But now you are in
- 14:00the place that you understand about
- 14:02vibration. Now you are in the place that
- 14:04you understand that your emotions tell
- 14:06you about how you are feeling, and they
- 14:08tell you how much of who you really are
- 14:10you were allowing.
- 14:12So when you get this straight in your
- 14:13mind, that when you are allowing who you
- 14:15really are, you feel eager, you feel
- 14:18sure, you feel powerful, you feel
- 14:21adventurous, you feel healthy, you feel
- 14:23vital and alive, you feel well, you are
- 14:26source energy pouring through these
- 14:28physical bodies, and anything less than
- 14:30that is you pinching it off a little
- 14:32bit. Then it's pretty easy for you to
- 14:34begin to guide yourself into thoughts
- 14:37and words and actions that feel good
- 14:40while you're thinking them because as
- 14:42you are feeling good, then you are in
- 14:44the vibrational place of allowing who
- 14:46you really are to pour through you.
- 14:49It is so much fun to watch our physical
- 14:52friends coming back consciously and
- 14:54deliberately into their own
