Our first Study group of the new year was held at K’s apt. We will celebrate our 6 monthaversary in a week by going back to the Hungarian Pastry Shop. YUM!
Questions:
1. How do you tap into the sea of your Universal mind?
C - Stay in bed after I awaken to do my mediation and to mediate on my day ahead.
SH – I stop, breathe, especially through any chaos that might be going on.
CH – Sometimes my bedroom, but that is a push more than a relax into it. It right now is perceived as a cacomb, but in reality it only feels like one because it is so warm and the only place I cane absolutely alone, if husband isn’t home. Otherwise it’s probably in the shower daydreaming.
K – Meditation of coursse, shower; walking alone. These are great places that just call me into meditation.
2. What is your current prosperity prayer?
C – Christ within prospers me now.
CH – Divine Order is being established in my (H & my or our lives) life immediately gently and in peace. [I mix it up.]
K – Thank you God for unseen abundance already on its way way to me now. Life is to enjoy! I now open my mind to prosperity now. I am beautifully and appropriately supplied with the rich substantce of the Universe now. Or almost any of the affirmations from this chapter. They are great.
SH – Everything is in Divine Right and perfect order. (It’s an improvement on my mom’s affirmation.)
K – Focussing on the money may scare it away.
C – If we do what we’re supposed to do then the money is a by product of our process.
K- I want to financially help my family.
C – Oh well yes the family is an important extension to this.
K – My Mom especially. She has helped me out great deal, especially when I first moved here from my hometown.
C - This chapter was awesome. I decided to write up my intentions for my 5 minute homework. My intentions list just kept gorowing. For isntance I did different things from my initial list of our 5 minute homework. If you look at p. 176, I need to call on my Divine Intelligence which I was a passage I initially missed when I read this section the first time. Upon my 2nd reading I realized that I needed ‘to cast a definite hook’ out with my intentions. Also from that reading, especially on page 179, which we all already know, but have to renew within our thinking is ‘Ideas are the beginning of all riches’. We have to allow ourselves time to let the ideas flow into our consciousness.
C made up a song on the spot, since she likes to do that:
It’s the study group, it’s the study group of Catherine Ponder also known to us as Cat Po’ Study Group. We read her books and discuss them. We do homework to keep ourselves prospered. All our doors are now opened, all our channels are now freeee. The whole world better watch out ’cause we are readddddy for theeeeeeeeee!
SH/K/C – Ha, heehee! Very cool
SH – I realized and found out that I treasure mapped my bed. You know I went to the store decided on the bed and knew what I was getting in September, but earlier I had picked out a picture, the price and hadn’t noticed the bedframe until I found it again earlier this week. It’s the same bedframe that I ultimately got, not from Ikea even though in the picture it is from Ikea. Luckily when I went into the Paramus store, the price for down $100 for that day. In October the bed was delivered and set up in my bed frame.
C – Let me know when you two want to come my house so I continue to create a vacuum by releasing my china and flatware.
In 4TPhd, there was discussion about our Time (in relation to tithing, & treasure. I think most of us in the last regular 4T finally got what the time aspect was and we were so relieved, but when it came up last Monday in 4TPhD, there was a discrepancy in how P was teaching it and all the other written matter on it and the way B taught it to us. There were several of us who were adamant about what time’s definition is, which was opposite of what P. was saying.
SH – I was beginning to feel uncomfortable, especially since we were all so clear and P. was seemingly making us unclear as to the meaning of the term.
C – I and few others were at odds at his understanding versus our revelation from our last class. To say it went round and round for a couple of minutes would put it mildly. What we learned was that the time was for us to replenish ourselves so that we could then go out and either tithe our time to an organization or to another person who may just need to vent. Through mediation we are then filled up and can take on the world.
But P. was saying that Time is the when you go out into the world and help others. But in the 4T book in the contract and on page it say time is for replenishing yourself through meditation.
SH – Then C confused everyone when she started talking about airplanes and putting the oxygen mask on yourself first before putting it on the child. P. was confused as well as some of the rest of us.
C – But you can’t help anyone else, if you don’t have yourself filled with air (or light of God within), right. It only makes sense. I think P. decided that we disagreed with him and we’d just move on from there. His interpretation was definitely different from the book’s and what we just recently learned.
K – I always thought it had to do with helping others.
C – Yes, that’s what P. said, but then what is talent? Talent is helping others, I think Time is for refilling or replenishment.
K - What I sometimes have a challenge with is the full tithing. Tithing is 10% right? Well with an extra bill I don’t want or use, I sometimes can’t do a full tithe. I sometimes am in a quandry of what to do.
SH – Tithe what you can do, until you can do more. I know that I had been holding on to a tithe, that I had marked out for someone and my money has been acting funny. I know I have to release it, but for some reason, I haven’t been able to, but tomorrow, I will make it a point to fulfill what I have said I will do.

5 minute Action Homework
K – I sent an email and called Prat. Wrote the VA to have them send the correct monetary infomration to the school
I decided to release or remove my weight from my body, rather than lose the weight, because when something is lost, then subconsciously your body is always looking to retrieve its rightful place.
SH/C – Yeah, that’s right. That makes sense.
C – Last night before I went to bed, I did some monthly recollections and then looked into my email where I’d received an Chambere’ gig from a woman tht had hooked me up with the Women’s collective on musician and lyricist. Intially I thought it was a gig for me, but in reality it was her asking if she could use of a couple of my songs in her act. Totally blew me away. It’s so great. I ‘ve been trying to get my songs out there and they are getting distributed. She was emailing to get my permission to use the songs. I, of course, wrote back with the affirmative.
I got an affirmation of doing 5 gigs at the Sugar Bar with firm dates.
My intentionary statements include: a) Before the end of the year my music is being placed in films and TV shows. b) Email non-exclusive rights to a couple folks to use my songs. c) Do college gigs within collectives d) Make up tutuorial on the web: Poker Face – Lady Ga Ga to step up my Video Game, so I offered her the use of my music in your tutorials as background music.
Quality is important, though along with presentation, so it won’t go out to just anybody unless I like their overall presentation. Some people just don’t care what is in the background when they’re shooting and I can’t have that with my music.
CH - On Dec. 31st I went to Carol’s Daughter: The Back Room for a luxurious mani/pedi. Mmmh.
Went to Jennifer Convertibles to look at sofas and get an idea of our new sofa in our new apartment.
SH – Before next group can we email each other our one definite item so we can see it our face when we are in mediation.
K – Easy and effortless money comes to me quickly and easily.
Check out WOWmobile, which another way for me to make money. With this Master Cleanse and the Sea Salt Flush, I am feeling not only cleansed but energized both physically, and mentally and specifically my brain feels energized.
