About this event

Carl Thomsen – Carl is a life-long meditator, more than 50 years. He has been a seeker for truth throughout that time and has trod the paths of many traditions from The Teachings of Don Juan to A Course in Miracles. After encountering the Teachings of Abraham several years ago, he found that all his previous experiences flowed directly into and through these teachings. Carl now speaks and writes for Abraham for private clients and groups.

Carl is a home renovation contractor ( sacreddwellingbuilders.com ) and is married to Barbara Schofield Thomsen and they live in Catskill, NY. They teach Qigong together.

Brief Introduction to the Teachings

The "Teachings of Abraham" refer to a system of spiritual philosophy popularized by Esther Hicks and her late husband Jerry Hicks. According to Esther, "Abraham" is not a single person but a group of non-physical entities that she "translates" or channels. This entity or energy is available to all who wish to partake.

The core of the message is centered on the Law of Attraction and the idea that individuals are the creators of their own reality through their thoughts and emotions.

Core Principles

· The Law of Attraction: This is the foundation of the teachings. It suggests that "that which is like unto itself, is drawn." Essentially, your thoughts—whether positive or negative—act as magnets that bring corresponding experiences into your life.

· The Science of Deliberate Creating: A process for consciously manifesting desires by intentionally directing your thoughts and feelings to align with your desires, trusting that the Universe will deliver, and then allowing it to happen by maintaining a positive emotional state.

· The Emotional Guidance System: Abraham teaches that emotions are a biological feedback mechanism indicating your alignment with your "Source" or "Inner Being." Positive emotions signal alignment, while negative emotions indicate you are focusing on something that contradicts your true desires.

· The Vortex: This is a "vibrational reality" where all your desires and requests are held. According to the teachings, once you ask for something, it is instantly created in the Vortex; your job is to reach a state of "vibrational alignment" to allow those things to manifest in physical form.

· The Art of Allowing: This involves reaching a state of high vibration where you are no longer resisting your own desires. It is often described as "letting go" of doubt and worry so that the things you want can flow to you.

The Fundamental Message

· The overarching theme of the teachings is personal empowerment. Abraham emphasizes that you are not a victim of circumstances and that by managing your "vibrational output" (your mood and focus), you can design a life of "joyous expansion."

· The teachings are often summarized by the phrase: "The purpose of your life is joy; the basis of your life is freedom; the result of your life is growth."
