Greetings, love and
abundance to you all. It is the topic of
abundance that we wish to address with you right
now. Many of you still believe in your
heart of hearts that to be abundant you mist
exert effort, and you must struggle.
We have come to tell you
that abundance in any form does not and indeed
cannot “come” from force. Rather, it comes from
surrender, from a state of “being-ness.” This
state of beingness is actually your natural
state. It is the state from which all
creative energy flows. It is the place of your
eternal spring.
We wish to use as an
example the idea of spoon bending. We will not
refer to this as an exercise because it is not.
It is actually just the opposite. Yet we hope
you might be with this idea by picking up a
spoon and relaxing into this meditation.
Sit in a comfortable
meditative position with a metal spoon in both
hands. Hold it lightly between the thumb
and first finger of each hand. Remember, nothing
comes from force. We will tell you that even
holding the spoon at all is not really necessary
and you will understand this in due time.
As you hold the spoon and
relax into beingness, take a look at any
attachments to outcomes. What reasons
might you have for “needing” to be able to bend
the spoon? Or might we say knowing you are able.
You can already bend it. You have just
forgotten. You can release attachments to
outcomes anytime just by knowing it is so.
Release attachments now.
As you do so, notice how
the spoon feels in your hand. Notice your
internal process (thoughts, emotions, etc.).
Feel your body. Is there anyplace you are
holding tension? Relax those parts now.
Continue with the spoon.
How do you feel about yourself as you hold it?
Have you begun to get impatient to be “able” to
bend it? Have you given yourself a timeline? In
what ways have you been judging yourself? What
doubts are coming up?
We wish to clarify that
the purpose of this meditation is not to bend a
spoon, but to use spoon bending as a means of
understanding how we approach life situation and
abundance in general. Perception is everything.
It is one thing to know some people can be
abundant (or can bend spoons), it is another to
know you are abundance itself.
There are some who will
hold the spoon in their hands and notice in
subtle ways that they are forcing or willing the
spoon to bend. There are some, this channel
included, who might give up rather than feel
their own perceived inadequacies. We are
offering this spoon meditation as a way to bring
up, bring to light, resistances to abundance,
self imposed blockages so you can release them.
We recommend that you be
with this activity regularly with the “goal” not
being to bend the spoon, but to learn from the
process. We also recommend that you keep the
spoon nearby to remind you to treat yourself
with unconditional love. Whether you can
remember to bend the spoon or not, you are
worthy of unconditional love and this is the
source of all abundance. The spoon is a great
teacher, but it is only symbolic.
And so we say surrender to
love, surrender to who you already are, and you
will do a lot more than bend spoons. You are
powerful loving beings worthy of all the
abundance in the universe. You are not only
abundant, you are abundance itself. All you have
to do is feel it.
