“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Thoughts of abundance immediately begin to work for you, at their inception. Again, always consider the thing desired accomplished and projected in present reality, present physical reality, and so it shall be. This does not mean that a wish today for five thousand dollars will come minutes after. It does mean that it will come shortly, in your terms, according to your belief.

Now you often projected negative thoughts, not being able to accept the items in the spirit in which they were given. You felt it made you inferior to accept such gifts. This is negative to begin with. You (pointing to me) wanted to feel aloof, and I tell you, superior. There is a knack in accepting and receiving. Your attitude was a rejecting one in general—that is, it was a reflection of a deeper pattern of negative thinking.

Some of this had to do with your own background. There was also a feeling, “Since you do not buy my paintings, do not hand me your junk.” But these people did not feel you wanted them to buy your paintings. You did not project that thought.

Give us a moment. (Pause.) To some extent there was a bottling up of energy, in that you could not take or give freely. You projected your own negative patterns of thought upon those who gave joyfully. This does not mean you look for alms. I did not mean they gave and therefore placed themselves above you. These were quite simply offerings, and they considered them little enough.
