This Thursday, December 13, 2012, I will be starting a 40 day series of meditations on abundance. I do this series periodically, basically whenever I feel constricted, especially financially but in any area of my life. When I begin to be under the illusion that my job or my husband or the government is my Source, or when I feel a lack of love, a lack of peace, a lack of health, I start these meditations. See below for the full text of the meditations and the program. You can, of course, start this any time, but I’d like it if you’d do it with me. Starting Thursday I will post the day’s meditation that I’m on and some thoughts about it.
If you’re new to my blog, this is not me, it’s someone much more serene and you don’t have to sit like this to meditate. I sit in a chair.
This is my typed excerpt of the total 40-Day Prosperity Plan from The Abundance Book by John Randolph Price–$7.00 from Hay House publishers. If you use this program, please start with it right away, but please commit to purchasing this wonderful and inexpensive little book. It contains lots of background information and testimonials that are essential to a thorough understanding and reaping of the benefits of this plan.
The rest is verbatim John Randolph Price’s words, not mine:
“Here is a program for realizing abundant prosperity in your life and affairs. It takes 40 days for consciousness to realize a truth. A break during the 40 day period releases the energy being built up around the idea. Therefore, there must be a definite commitment to faithfully follow this program each and every day for 40 days—and if you miss even one day, to start over again and continue until you can go the full period with perfect continuity. Here is the course of action:
àEstablish a specific date to start your program, such as the beginning of a particular week. Count out 40 days on your calendar and mark the completion date.
àOn the first day of the program write the statement shown below in your spiritual journal:
This day (show actual date) I cease believing in visible money as my supply and my support, and I view the world of effect as it truly is … simply an outpicturing of my former beliefs. I believed in the power of money, therefore I surrendered my God-given power and authority to an objectified belief. I believed in the possibility of lack, thus causing a separation in my consciousness from the Source of my supply. I believed in mortal man and carnal conditions, and through this faith gave man and conditions power over me. I believed in the mortal illusion created by the collective consciousness of error thoughts, and in doing so, I have limited the Unlimited. No more! This day I renounced my so-called humanhood and claim my divine inheritance as a Be-ing of God. This day I acknowledge god and only god as my substance, my supply and my support.
àThere are ten statements of Principle below. Read one statement each day. This means that you will go through the entire list fourtimes during the 40-day period.
àAfter reading the daily statement—either upon arising or before going to bed in the evening—meditate on it for at least 15 minutes, focusing on each idea in the statement with great thoughtfulness and feeling—letting the ideas fill your consciousness.
àFollowing each meditation period, write down in your Journal the thoughts that come to you. Be sure to do this daily.
àSince you have alreadyreceived an all-sufficiency of supply (all that the Infinite Mind has is yours now), you can prove this Truth to your deeper mind by sharing your supply on a regular basis while you are working with the Plan. Giving is an esoteric science that never fails to produce results if it is done with love and joy, because the Law will shower you with a pressed down and multiplied return. But if you tithe (and I really prefer the word “sharing” to tithing) as a mechanical and calculated method to please god, unload guilt, meet a sense of obligation and play a bartering game with the Law, no one benefits—not even the receiver. Give with love, joy, and a sense of fun and windows of heaven will be thrown open with a blast.
àThe Statements of Principle:
1. God is lavish, unfailing Abundance, the rich omnipresent substance of the Universe. This all-providing Source of infinite prosperity is individualized as me—the Reality of me.
2. I lift up my mind and heart to be aware, to understand, and to know that the Divine Presence, I AM is the Source and Substance of all my good.
3. I am conscious of the Inner Presence as my lavish Abundance. I am conscious of the constant activity of this Mind of infinite Prosperity. Therefore, my consciousness is filled with the Light of Truth.
4. Through my consciousness of my Godself, the Christ within, as my Source, I draw into my mind and feeling nature the very substance of Spirit. This substance is my supply, thus my consciousness of the Presence of God within me is my supply.
5. Money is not my supply. No person, place or condition is my supply. My knowledge of the all-providing activity of the Divine Mind within me is my supply. My consciousness of this Truth is unlimited; therefore, my supply is unlimited.
6. My inner supply instantly and constantly takes on form and experience according to my needs and desires, and as the Principle of Supply in action, it is impossible for me to have any needs or unfulfilled desires.
7. The Divine Consciousness that I am is forever expressing its true nature of Abundance. This is its responsibility, not mine. My only responsibility is to be aware of this Truth. Therefore, I am totally confident in letting go and letting God appear as the abundant all-sufficiency in my life and affairs.
8. My consciousness of the Spirit within me as my unlimited Source is the Divine Power to restore the years the locusts have eaten, to make all things new, to lift me up to the High Road of abundant prosperity. This awareness, understanding and knowledge of Spirit appears as every visible form and experience that I could possibly desire.
9. When I am aware of the God-Self within me as my total fulfillment, I am totally fulfilled. I am now aware of this Truth. I have found the secret of life, and I relax in the knowledge that the Activity of Divine Abundance is eternally operating in my life. I simply have to be aware of the flow, the radiation, of that Creative Energy, which is continuously, easily and effortlessly pouring forth from my Divine Consciousness. I am now aware. I am now in the flow.
10.I keep my mind and thoughts off “this world” and I place my entire focus on God within as the only cause of my prosperity. I acknowledge the Inner Presence as the only activity in my financial affairs, as the substance of all things visible. I place my faith in the Principle of Abundance in action within me.”
