Giving in order to receive is an old paradigm we’ve all
bought into, but it no longer fits new understandings of the quantum field and
law of attraction. New clients of mine, in trying to understand the workings of
the law of attraction, often raise the question: “Why do some miserable,
stingy, corrupt people just seem to get richer and richer all the while
cheating and swindling others and pinching every dime?” The answer is: “because
they have such a pure vibration of taking.”
There is no judgment in law of attraction. What you vibrate
intensely is what you get. If you think you should be rich and can take and
cheat without guilt, you get that. We , as a culture, especially as Americans,
have a big thing about giving back. And of course, it is nice to do, and it
sometimes feels good. But I’m no longer seeing it as necessary in order to
receive.
Yes, giving and receiving are the opposites of the same universal principle, but more and more quantum physics is looking at Oneness and not polarity. As we learn more about Oneness, we see that the concept of opposites, polarity, and required balance are cultural ideas and not necessarily an expression of the Unified field. It goes back to that Judeo-Christian, light and dark at war, kind of thing.
People overly concerned with giving are often unintentionally egotistical, suggesting a subtle version of you need me, but I don't need you. Or a version of 'better than'. These are the people who often refuse any thing that is offered to them. They also, often, are not feeling themselves WORTHY of receiving. They are, many times, performing a duty or obligation and not giving from joy. Also, sometimes they 'give' as assurance that they will receive. Tithing is sometimes taught this way; as sort of insurance that you will get back what you give.
All of these are the wrong reasons to give. When one is purely aligned with Spirit, one gives from pure joy, pure exuberance and the impulse to share. Tithes, or any gift, given freely and joyfully have much more impact on your alignment with wealth than any gift given out of duress or expectancy of a return.
Everything should be done for one reason alone and that is because it gives joy. That is what we are here for – joy and freedom and fun. Giving ‘should’ be done when it is fun, and when it is done from an attitude of “I have plenty and there is plenty more where that came from (my consciousness) and it gives me joy to share.” Then abundance flows into our attitude of “I have plenty”. We get “plenty” more.
Science of Mind, Abraham, and quantum physics teach that the Universe, Source Energy, god, the Unified field, whatever you call it . . . is only a force of flowing energy that says 'yes' to whatever you put into it. Like water, it is a flow, that's nature is to give, to expand and it only needs a request to flow into.
This feels so much better to me than the obligation to give in order to receive.
