I have abundance because I AM abundance. With no desire for wealth,nor fear of poverty one can give freely of possessions and time. This sets up a never ending flow of abundance.
A simple programming- secretly embedded in the subconscious of people always has them seeking for what is beyond themselves, somehow expecting to find answers to their questions. In order to have an answer you have to make yourself part of it. A free radical in the body steals electrons and moves around causing imbalance. Macro-cosmically we do the same, energetically taking things in our environment from external sources and trying to find balance. Money, houses, cars, relationships, we acquire these things because-..well we've been shown to and feel a great void within us if we don't follow suite. But why do we really seek these things? Why do we expect them to add something to our lives, and feel the sting of emptiness if we lose them?
Most people don't have an honest answer to this. This is not an easy path to walk down. You would have to discover, in your own personal experience why these things are part of your life and why you seek them out. Until then, a person is simply a broken record, mindlessly engaging in whatever enters their field of view. Simple interest, curiosity and thrill mean nothing. A person must search their heart and find WHY they have such desires, where they stem from, why they grow, and how they weaken the will. A person who acquires some wealth, or possession and then is saddened or knocked down by its absence does not know their own heart. Thus they are not ready for the WHY. Unless a person knows why they take certain paths, desires certain things, they will never be awake and never be free.
If you are alone, absolutely alone, and your happiness remains the same, then you have attained happiness- otherwise you have not. This is my child, this is my wealth: such thoughts are the preoccupations of fools. If we are unable to own even ourselves, why make such claims? Being alone and being lonely are not the same. The lonely seek friendship, the hungry seek sustenance, the angry seek conflict, the emotional seek drama, the fearful seek comfort. To be free of these patterns one has to seek the self; they must stop collecting information from books and outside sources and being collecting information from inside their own self. Otherwise a person will remain subjugated by their tendencies, and the seeking, regardless of its form; money, love, food etc. will always lock them in a prison in consciousness. Happiness is a person who wants what they have. Abundance is not a question of how much one has but of what one's attitude is toward what one has. And when the thirst dies down for such things, these things will be present with little to no effect on the individual. So do not seek abundance because it is here, you are it; simply find the direction life moves and go with it.
