Abundance
"Oh God, Oh universe, you know what I want, you know what I need, you know what my heart desires...send it to me"
I heard it over and over again, chanting and praying to God for graces. It came from Mr. Pido Aguilar of Ateneo Graduate Business School as he speaks in his teatro voice in front of us. That afternoon, I was among his audience as he tackled this topic - Abundance.
Flow & connect
To have abundance, you should flow and connect - go with the flow of life and not against it. Always be connected to others. You never stop from living a life which doesn't flow...give and it shall flow back to you. "You can have anything you want as long as you give up the belief that you cannot have it" ...With abundance, what you have is overflowing, so you have to give and share in order to be refilled.
It's a natural thing that the universe give us everything it can give, we cannot stop it. We just have to recognize it and accept it. Non-abundance is scarcity. It happens because some people do not recognize the things given to him, block it or disconnect from life's flow. For this type of behavior, we have to understand that some people are going through life's "journey". All people have problems, we're all going through something which others don't know. When you don't understand people, you tend to judge him negatively, condemn him, say bad words to him. It is important to understand people's behavior and keep in mind that he may be acting or behaving that way because " he is going through something I don't know"...For your self, the value or the role of this "difficult" people is that he may help you become a better person, he will test your patience and make you realize that life is beautiful.
Abundance or Scarcity?
Abundance is not just about money, it's abundance in all your life's aspects (wealth, self, work, family, friends, romance, rest, recreation, health, faith)
Non-abundance are the following: Global practices (Environmental destruction, war, hunger, materialism, broken relationships);
Filipino practices (Filipino time, fake/pirated CDs, traffic habits, Lotto/jueteng, retail (tingi), debt (utang), politicking, chismis, worry/complain, lusot)
Eliminate any outside influences that don't feed your soul or life purpose.
Dharma or Karma?
"For everything that comes your way is but something you somehow once gave away..."
Abundance is equated with dharma - you reap your rewards
Non-abundance is equated with karma - during payback time, the universe will get what your heart desires- the one or the thing that will hurt you the most when taken away-as payment for all the things you've done.
Practice abundance!....receive abundance!
