How do you change an internal belief like poverty?
You know, if a person is living in poverty and they have a total debt
and they can't even pay their bills that month and stuff like that.
EQ: First off, a belief in poverty is a belief in the fact that
there is not enough for everyone and that thee do not deserve an equal
share. Is this not so?
Yes.
EQ: So you have two things you are dealing with. The belief
in lack - which all you have to do is look at all the abundance on this
planet and all the people who have it, many who thee will probably
ascertain did not deserve it. Is this not so?
Yes.
EQ: So that should dissuade thee from the whole belief that there
is lack here, right?
Except when that person's thinking personally and they're looking at
their heavy debt.
EQ: This is the difference: That is a belief in
non-deservability, dost thou understand? So if there isn't lack,
thee have ascertained that lack is an illusion. Then thee have to
look at then why are thee choosing to live difficultly. Dost thou
understand?
Yes.
EQ: This is a lack of self image. A lack of belief that
thee deserve to be Bill Gates.
Yes, but I have a question. You said to disprove your belief.
EQ: Exactly!
So I don't know how a person would disprove that if it's a belief in
. . .
EQ: We said there are certain things that are much more difficult
and will take the entire lifetime. The first step that we would
suggest would be to begin to give thyself gifts. Whether these
are gifts of material things is irrelevant. Give thyself a
gift. Perhaps that gift is a whole day that is yours, that no one
else can take away from thee. It doesn't matter if you are called
into work, it doesn't matter if your mother wants thee or your children
are needing thee, what matters is this is thy day and thee deserve it
because thee are alive and a good person. Then thee want to begin
to look at thy value. It is an exercise of beginning to view
thyself from the eyes of the people that love thee. Dost thou
understand this concept?
Yes.
EQ: Truly stepping out and saying, "Why does this person love
me? What is lovable about me?" Ask them! And begin to
accept it. It will be hard work and as time goes on and thee
begin to accept more and more gifts either from thyself or from others,
then the flow stops being dammed and it begins to come. Dost thou
understand?
Yes.
EQ: Thee also need to examine, and this is particularly true for
the females amongst thee, how many of thee want to live just barely so
that they can get rescued by some man? Truly! Many women do
this and it is subconscious, they do not know they are doing this, but
subconsciously they are wanting love and they do not feel they deserve
it but they were told when they were very, very young that all they had
to do was be walled up in a castle, or be pricked and fall asleep for
200 years, or sleeping and their prince charming will come in and
rescue them and make their life work. So many little girls grow
up to be women who live their life on the edge hoping that they will be
rescued. So this is another thing to think about.
Could it also be that that person chose to have that life?
EQ: The soul?
I'm sorry, yes.
EQ: The soul may choose to have that experience but the soul
always wants thee to remedy it. Dost thou understand? The
soul may want thee to have the experience of poverty, that doesn't mean
that thee have to be there forever.
So a related question then, can any of us be too wealthy?
EQ: We would say that "too wealthy" would be that person whether
they have ten dollars or ten gazillion . . . Is that a
word? We like it.
Yes, sure.
EQ: . . . ten gazillion dollars, too wealthy is when thee
horde.
So if I were to make, or if any of us were to make say, ten times
what we currently make, that wouldn't necessarily be too much as long
as the reciprocity and giving and taking . . .
EQ: As long as thee understand that thee own nothing. Thee
do not own thy money, thee do not own this physical body, thee do not
own thy homes, thee do not own thy children, thy spouses, thee own
nothing. So share it! That which thee give out comes back
many fold if thee believe this thing. So if thee feel abundantly
wealthy and thee give from that space? Guess what comes
back! If thee feel abundantly lacking then thee will not give and
thee are hording and it doesn't come. Dost thou understand?
Yes.
EQ: We would love it if everyone were Bill Gates. We
would! We think this is wondrous. Then, wouldn't thy planet
be a much better place? If everyone had much, much, much more
than they could ever have need for? Everyone!
I don't know . . .
EQ: Dost thou think there would be murder? Dost thou think
there would be robbery?
There would still be competition somewhere though.
EQ: There might be competition because of boredom.
Yes. We create our own competition just to keep our minds
going.
EQ: But we believe there would be a lot less violence.
Because you felt more secure.
EQ: Because everybody has everything.
Right.
EQ: Thee don't have to fight for somebody's land to have
more. Everybody has it all.
And this would shift us away from a collective fear
consciousness. At least partially.
EQ: Yes.
This would open up our creativity too.
EQ: Absolutely. For what we have discovered is when
entities get themselves out of themselves, they connect with the All
and once they are connected with the All, they are connected with
infinite creativity. Very good.
So abundance that would be shared with all would multiply the
creativity and satisfy and make every one humble?
EQ: Yes.
This is part of a love and link connection thing that I started and
I mentioned at Mission Beach and this has helped me so much, what you
just said, so all my questions are answered.
EQ: Super! This is important.
