Abundance

There is a lot of chatter about 'abundance' these days on the airwaves. A lot of talk about removing blockages to  this abundance. What they are usually talking about is financial 'success' aka performance, and often a successful romantic relationship. If you're really lucky you'll meet your 'twin flame'...

The trouble is, these desires are mostly a result of projection, and therefore lack. You want these things to compensate for what you don't currently have as a permanent state.


Try thinking about abundance in a different way. How much bliss do you experience when you meditate? How many layers of appreciation do you feel when you listen to a piece of music or watch a movie? How deeply into your own body can you go and how much of the universe can you find there? How many nerve endings are activated when you interact with another who is not your lover. How much self-compassion do you have?

When you start to truly have abundance in this inner way, you could choose to live in a cave and feel as if you have the whole world.

For me, abundance is characterised by a pomegranate seed. It's a little red, juicy jewel in which you can find everything. Try looking at one with appreciation. When I was teaching myself this, I spent some time clocking little 'jewels' that I found in my life, and endowing them with appreciation, collecting them like trinkets - gifts to me from the Beloved.

It's a good practice - how much 'juice' can you squeeze out of a little pleasure? Can you find pleasure in something you would normally resist? Make it into a game.

When abundance really happens, it would be unusual for your external circumstances to not reflect this. But that's not why you do it, because a critical aspect of this is surrender and letting go. You let go of your performance-led goals, and start living like a poet or an artist. Celebrate your own creativity in any way that pleases you. If you treat yourself with something nice, do it in full consciousness out of self-compassion and make sure you enjoy every drop. Re-define abundance, and it will be more likely to work with you.


I wrote a poem about these jewels of abundance a while back.
Always a good reminder.....




Jewels that I find:
Shining pomegranate seeds
Raspberry-laden bush
Sweet watermelon
French fancies, battenburg and Swiss roll
Our love in these
Abundantly smiling
Like rubies and pearls
Shared moments of laughter
Sparkling rosé
Glasses clinking and tinkling
You make me coffee
And I kiss you
