Abundance vs . Poverty Consciousness

 Do you see the abundance in your life and Thank God or do you focus on the misery in your life and curse God ? Abundance Consciousness makes you love God and connect to higher realms whereas Poverty Consciousness makes you blame God and disconnect from God.

Human beings have evolved above animals in terms of physical bodies but they now, need to move above animalistic survival based thinking; wherein the ‘survival instinct ‘is replaced by an ‘abundance instinct’; such that a belief in abundance of resources replaces the competitive negativity arising due to a belief in scarcity of resources.

Abundance Consciousness is a mind-set which deliberately focuses on the blessings of life - on all those good aspects of life which reflect love, peace or good health with the belief that contentment will grow in abundance in the future. For example, a focus on feeling gratitude for being generally healthy is abundance consciousness whereas a focus on the painful areas of the body and feeling generally unhealthy because of minor problems is Scarcity Consciousness.  Similarly,  a focus on feeling wealthy because your necessities are being met by your work/life choices is abundance consciousness whereas a focus on all the goods which are in the market and which you want to buy but cannot buy, is scarcity consciousness.

People have been trained into focusing on the scarcities of life, due to the traditional belief that pain/the negative situation has to be focused upon to be fixed. However , a focus on pain creates sadness and a feeling of failure .

Focusing on failure does not help to fix a negative situation. To resolve a painful situation, focus needs to be on clearing the errors and healing the negative aspect of life with appropriate measures while channeling the remaining energy on fueling the positive aspects of life.

Metaphorically, if you have failed in one subject but have passed in all others, your focus needs to be not on sadness of failing but on the positive learning attached to the sadness of having failed. Instead of feeling emotionally  negative because you failed, you need to concentrate on the positive emotional solution of the problem . You can either choose to focus  on passing the one subject in which you have failed or on learning detachment by  ignoring the failure as insignificant and continue your efforts such that your overall confidence grows.

Traditionally, suffering has been focused upon by choice as scarcity consciousness was predominant . It was believed that suffering is inevitable and has to be borne . However, suffering makes you continuously focus on the area of life where you have failed without adequate attention being given to fuel optimism which is necessary to overcome suffering  . Evolution of consciousness entails that a choice to focus upon happiness predominates over sadness, with conscious awareness of those areas of life where there is abundance so that the faith in positive life force grows.

The need to curtail indulgence in happiness arises from a generalized assumption that resources are scarce & won’t grow overtime. Hence, compromise on happiness in the present is necessary to be happy in the future . Excessive focus on future with a fear of scarcity leads to creation of feelings of deprivation in the present. Suffering in silence manifests pessimism, hatred, anger & suppression overtime,  that lead to a need to vent out frustration through aggression, whenever an opportunity arises. If people do not use violence externally, they become sick internally as the suppressed violence is subconsciously vented out by harming the self through indulging in negative thinking & escapist addictive habits which create negative hormones in the body .

Abundance consciousness means having a thinking pattern which is patient and optimistic. A consciousness of abundance  leads to reduction of greed arising out of a fear that there will be scarcity in the future. The future is expected to be happier than the present without worries being fueled as the belief is that ‘ there is plenty and always  will be; hence, there is freedom of choice to be positive because the difficulties will pass away overtime’.

Abundance consciousness fuels energies upon the best aspects of self more than the worst ; whereas scarcity/poverty consciousness is the awareness of the worst aspects of life with the belief that ‘ there is scarcity and always will be; hence, hoarding of resources is required in the present as difficulties will always remain and worsen in the future. ’

Scarcity consciousness arises due to a shortage of money  to buy resources and not due to an inability to grow resources. Resources are available in large magnitudes today in the human technologically advanced money based economy . If you have  money, you can buy anything which is held to be competitively scarce.

The scarcity or helplessness which is felt in everyday life is a problem of Poverty/ helplessness Consciousness which is a vibrational manifestation problem carried over from the primitive mindset. In the human world, the scarcity manifests   due to a persistent focus on fear of losing which creates an unequal distribution of incomes, goods & services . There is no real scarcity but scarcity is maintained to balance power equations as in the animal world where there was a belief that the strong have to eat the weak in order to rule as only the fittest can survive. The theory of ‘ Survival of the fittest ‘ explains the need for measures to maintain monopolies and rich-poor class differences at the cost of bearing unhappiness amongst those deprived. 

Energy travels from one being to another and unhappiness of the souls who are unjustly treated passes onto reduce the happiness of souls who feel powerful in the form of dis-obedience, rebellions, curses, conflicts, strikes etc. Since , animals do not feel poor/ rich, this emotional quality of happiness is sidelined in a blindly imitated competitive struggle for survival . Due to the Law of Repetition, governing life cycles, human beings inadvertently, continue to  behave like animals who want to be powerful even if it makes them negative/ anxious/ sick.

The evolution of resources from primitive times to modern times, shows the tremendous technological progress humanity has achieved but the scarcity consciousness remains because fear remains in the traditional mind. Due to the need to maintain power structures in self-defense, and a blind belief in helplessness, the means of distribution of surplus resources are curtailed by motives of monopolization, autocracy and corruption; which uphold individual profiting over mass welfare. Energy exchange is biased towards material display of power by advertising and glamour .  In fact, surplus resources are thrown away in developed countries because of market manipulative strategies of capitalism.

Hence, the solution to happiness is to break the animal mind-set of divisions where individuals struggle for survival to save their single power equations, at the cost of some profiting over several others or one winning  where several lose the race.  Awareness needs to be developed that life is  no longer a race or a struggle for survival but an artistic expression of the co-creator which can prosper with differences of opinions.

Surplus and happiness for all would grow in a variety of ways when  efforts are made to replace the need to COMPETE with a  need to COMPLETE.

Happiness cannot arrive until the scarcity conditioning is discarded with training in the  realization  that the problem in the human world today is not of scarcity of resources but of inequality of distribution.  As long as competitive capitalism is the model of growth, people hold back their surplus, creativity, talent, goods and services because of fear of losing money  and not because there is inability to grow more . People inhibit their abilities to spread love and happiness instead of using their surplus to complete other’s deficits .

Competition blocks ease of travel of resources from surplus areas to deficit areas . This inhibition indirectly blocks the spread of creative and productive energy, thus  slowing down further technological growth and soul evolution.

Scarcity continues to manifest unchecked,  because of fear of losing,  and starts being inculcated from school years. This conditioned fear of losing makes children competitive, restless, aggressive and violent more than compassionate, content, peaceful and happy; as they start behaving like  animals competitively fighting for resources in the jungle

Human society needs more minds seeking to complete deficits in happiness by helping each other than minds which are competitively successful. Instead of competing for scarce resources, human beings need to be trained from childhood to complement each other and work to complete each other’s deficiencies; so that resources increase in abundance  for all involved.

The much needed abilities of sharing & compassion, which are lacking in human world today due to lack of focus , can be technically developed  through a  modified education structure which stresses on developing human skills like patience and empathy along with academic skills,  so that positive thinking becomes a part of routine individual repertoire. The spread of positive thinking increases abundance consciousness in several automatically.

Unlike food, happiness spreads when you spread happiness to others . Food reduces once it is consumed but happiness increases once it is consumed and distributed. Originally, happiness was identified with having food & shelter, as it was so in the animal world.

Hence, there was fear that happiness would reduce if we spread the goods.  But, human beings do not identify happiness with just consumable items anymore. Human evolution has an increasing hunger for emotionally positive frequencies which increase by receiving  satisfaction in all aspects of life , not only food or clothing or shelter . The advancing soul has an increasing need for love , acknowledgement and self-respect to be happy .

Empirically , it has been proven that human beings could never be content if they just received food & shelter as animals seeked . The slave cult was abolished because human beings needed more than food & shelter to be happy in routine life, unlike the animals. The slaves received only food & shelter in exchange for work,  but they rebelled whereas the animals continued to work in the same mould. Hence, animal laws of scarcity cannot be blindly superimposed on human beings as people can get starved of happiness if focus is given merely to food & shelter

Happiness grows through investing efforts in mutual trade which focuses on devising methods of developing abundance for all. Happiness or well-being does not increase through investing in competitive games, wars & terrorism which provide short term diversions at the cost of wastage of resources in ego based conflicts of territories/ religions or nations. 

Human civilization has already suffered severe trauma for running away from emotional problems and resorting to wars to resolve ego based arguments. The huge amounts of energy and money  invested in wars and defense weapons can, now,  be avoided if investment on emotional management is given a priority over competitive sports; which subsequently manifests as  war games played at macro levels.

Happiness spreads while being happy oneself and not by sacrificing needs of love, creativity or satisfaction for future peacefulness. While indulging in greed is not needed to increase happiness, a focus on contentment is necessary to feel abundance in life. Present feelings multiply over time and positive thinking generates more positivity overtime, while feeling sad, compromised or negatively competitive creates more unhappiness over the long run with bad effects on health & inherent peacefulness.

Abundance consciousness spreads happiness from one to several through words spoken & feelings generated which increase optimism, and open doorways to experience love, creativity & passion . Complaining about survival, in terms of whether you will get food / shelter or not,  is a primitive thinking habit which needs to be deliberately discontinued and replaced with optimistic thinking. By default,   ‘’Abundance consciousness’’ motivates positive thinking while “Poverty/Scarcity Consciousness “ promotes negative thinking . 

Hence, a focus on developing abundance consciousness needs to supersede poverty/scarcity/war consciousness while training young minds . Children need to be trained into thinking that there is enough for all and always will be. Beliefs manifest reality .Vibrations are created in alignment with the feelings focused upon.

Scarcity or feelings of deprivation are created more by the habit of focusing on fear or greed than a real scenario in the Modern world.

Very often, individuals do not give charity of surplus as much as they can because there is no means to reach those who need due to lack of opportunities of fair distribution. Individuals want to open their wings and spread happiness in the modern world, but are blocked by a traditional mass super structure which believes in scarcity of resources  and hence , there are channels created for saving for wars & self –defense, but not for distribution of excess resources.. Once opportunity is created,  sharing of surplus would be a preferred option to indulging in excessive of clothes/drugs/food/ cars/ jewelry ,as it would be more satisfying for the soul . 

In contrast with abundance consciousness, a belief in having LESS compared to others,  creates sadness in self and the sadness spreads like a virus spreading . The energy of sadness spreads faster than the energy of happiness  because negative electrons have a higher magnetic content than positive electrons .

 In our poverty conscious world, sadness of one person  makes several people cry in despair, and believe more in the individual’s  debilitated state . Newspapers and  social media thrive on accentuating negative thinking .

 Feelings of helplessness and despair spread in an uncontrolled manner because of the traditionally honored belief of needing to focus on the suffering of human life. Sadness and helplessness are repetitively aggravated by focusing on problems, more than on accomplishments. A choice to be not content is ingrained in the human mind-set by traditional thinking of focusing on  past suffering; instead of on the thinking patterns which  help in overcoming suffering.

From an energy/ soul’s  perspective, humanity , as a race is infected by cancer of the spleen. Metaphorically, just as a human being develops cancer by focusing on anger & helplessness,  mass consciousness is infected with the virus of helplessness , due to a rigid belief in unchangeable suffering. In spite of huge improvements in living standards,  human health is destroying itself due to inappropriately focusing on the negative energy that there is lack of sufficient immunity against difficulties, which creates an internal dominant focus on sadness.  The cancer which , affects humanity today and spreads terrorism, aggression & wars , is created by excessively focusing on anger , rejection & despair at an individual or mass scale.

This illusion of helplessness is created by focus on injustice more than on improvements.  The appearance of negativity would reduce when the fear of scarcity dies in individuals and surplus of goods is spread to the poor who reflect lack of abundance with educational efforts made to raise their vibrational frequency to receive and manifest abundance.  

From the perspective of the evolving individual human, there is too much food, too many fashions, too many medicines, too much work and too many choices available in the modern world. The feeling that there is too much is increasing as individual humans strive to strike a balance between need and greed, with the understanding that greed is harmful in the long run for maintaining peace , good health or optimism. People are trying to learn how to say NO to excessive surplus of resources because there is so much to choose from .  

However, feelings of scarcity continue to rule over our subconscious minds because the traditional models of growth based on the principle of scarcity of resources, have not been revamped in tune with the changing times.

Though news about despair & loss pays more money as negativity is absorbed faster due to its magnetic content, spreading a negative mass consciousness spreads waves of sadness to all. The evolutionary shift in human consciousness towards a qualitatively better life for all, would be facilitated when focus of education, media & newspapers shifts towards depicting positive aspects of individual lives or the growing abundance of the human race, which has already overcome several centuries of struggle to arrive at a consciously abundant world.

Happiness increases only if positivity is allowed to be  the dominating energy in the mind by choice and with practice of positive thinking self -help exercises, which reduce the habit of the mind to automatically slope downwards towards fueling the energy of negative thinking.

In alignment with the rising abundance of resources in the modern industrial world, an inbuilt abundance consciousness would ensure that methods of distribution are created such that compassion, empathy and sharing rule over monopoly and competitive money making games. When mass consciousness is positive, waves of happiness spread for all . Increasing happiness for others , increases positivity in self. 

Walls of division have been created from the primitive  times onwards when fear of losing resources was paramount . Due to habits of continued negative thinking, people remained trapped in feelings of deprivation. Racism & nationalist feelings were promoted  in school syllabi.

Competitiveness and violence still continue to be a major tool of survival used as is evident from the stature of armies which all countries maintain to defend themselves from ‘enemies’’.

In today’s advancing world of the internet and world wide unification of thoughts, there is no continuing real need for creating national boundaries  for safeguarding resources of food and shelter , as was in the primitive era.

The development of abundance consciousness would be much easier  if countries work on international trade with peace, without the need to spread terrorism , threats & fear. However, almost one-third of financial  resources of national governments are spent on defense expenditures which can be used for development of health, education & peace in the masses.

God represents peace and harmony in every religion but our education system stresses more on differences in regions and religions than unanimity and thus, fails to teach that all religions essentially uphold the same principles of love, understanding and Oneness.

The concept of nationalism creates mental walls, and promotes egotist racism, which leads to inequalities in distribution of food, services and benefits of technology. Economic inequalities are subsequently  used by religious leaders who instigate the poor against the rich by quoting religion as the reason for disharmony/war whereas the underlying reason is always a need to amass more wealth for self over others, coming from the animal-mindset . People of every religion need economic welfare equally but the need to compete makes people brand their own God as superior to another , thus creating a need for anger/ violence.

Education and literacy are meaningless if they do not lead to creation of a happier and more peaceful world. If an increase in overall happiness was targeted instead of the need to be superior to others, there would be no need to glorify the self over others and create economic inequalities to feel powerful.

Differences in religious worship are natural and have developed as language differences have developed in different regions but these differences are superficial and need to be ignored than prioritized , to promote a peaceful and harmonious world where different breeds can live together as an unanimously evolving consciousness.

When belief in having surplus increases with faith in overall abundance,  happiness spreads as insecurity of each individual reduces.  Each person feels safe about spreading happiness and helping others as accentuating welfare of each other increases mutual satisfaction. happiness, peace, faith & optimism. Contributing towards growth of positive energy in another’s life raises the frequency of positive energy  in self while creating vibrations of abundance which spread peacefulness to several others.

Peace in the world is a direct outcome of individuals feeling at peace in their own lives; as the more restless and competitive individuals feel,  the more are tensions and wars created at the mass level. Mass consciousness is a sum total of individual consciousness.

Change begins from the individual and reaches the masses where it can be accepted or discarded . To evolve to a happier and more peaceful world, the rudimentary mind-set of using force & violence needs to be replaced by deliberate training given to individual young minds to feel abundant and not competitively judged; so that the whole structure is motivated to think differently and evolution speeds up as attempts are focused upon completing each other’s deficits more than competing with each other’s talents.
