Guest .We have been taught that old feelings,or suppressed feelings can manifest in the body as illnesses . So what do we do with old hurts, or angers?
Abe . The thing is that old stuff can not affect your now unless you are thinking about it. In other words , it was old stuff but you are thinking about it now so now its new stuff! Its the newest its what you are thinking about NOW.
Your point of power is in your now, And so at every point you have the option of thinking the old stuff that hurts you or the old stuff that uplifted you. The now stuff that hurts you or the now stuff that uplifts you . In other words pay attention to the way that you are feeling
.There are some who say “I am full of old beliefs and some of them are negatively affecting me” . And we say it is possible, let us say that something happened very hurtful when you were young. You weren’t even old enough to be able to put it into words let us say. But it left a very deep emotional scar. You’ve been carrying it around all the days of your experience using it as your excuse for why things are not going well now.
In other words that sometimes is the case. But in your now when you say ,”Nothing is more important than that I feel good” “I’m wanting to connect with my Inner Being,pure positive energy and I can’t do that and focus on lack at the same time ” You just become one who plays the rules of a bigger game.
In other words, someone said to us recently “Abraham its hard you know” he said “to do what you teach”. “Because we live in a world where there is so much negative stuff”. He says ” I’m bombarded by it, even in my workplace”.He said “I have to play their game” “If I don’t then I will feel fearful Because if I don’t play their game then they might not like me or .. He gave a whole list of things that might happen under those conditions and we said just join a bigger arena. Play a bigger game Play with the Laws of the Universe rather than the laws that have come about from people who are disconnected.
Do you know that every law on your books , whether it is a religious law or a secular law.Without exception has come forth from those who are disconnected? Those who are feeling guarded and vulnerable. They are the ones that enact the laws.
So what we are saying is, just play in a bigger game. Let nothing be more important than that you feel good, and you will discover that the things which made you feel bad will not come forth much anymore. In other words, those old hurts you really will leave behind you .
