Last fall I was blessed with the opportunity to spend an entire evening with my dear friend Esther Hicks, asking questions of the group of ascended masters known as Abraham. It was an event I will never forget, and Hay House has released a record of our talk, titled: Co-creating at Its Best. Here are my opening questions for Abraham from the book:

Wayne Dyer: I’d first like you to just tell me and everyone watching and everyone here in this room, who you are. Who is Abraham? For those who don’t know, including me. Would you tell us?

Abraham: The most important thing to explain is we are a Collective Consciousness, a vibration, not different from that which all of you have access to. But because of Esther’s focus over the years, she has managed to accomplish a frequency, so to speak, that allows her to hone in on us, so she can hear us in a more pointed way.

Everyone who is physically focused, and that includes all of you, is an extension of Source Energy. And we are that Source Energy that you are all extensions of. But as you move around through your day-to-day experiences, not meaning to, you often find vibrational frequencies, because of what you are observing, that prevent you from receiving the fullness of who-you-are. And we are the fullness of that, you see.

Some have tried to get us to define ourselves in physical terms, but we cannot. And we are not whispering words to Esther that she is repeating. We are offering blocks of thought, and Esther is finding physical words that match those blocks of thought. Everyone is capable of doing this. You all can receive this inspiration. However, you can be inspired from different points of attraction. You could be in a very bad mood and receive inspiration, but then you are not receiving inspiration from Source Energy, but instead from blocks of thought that have been left along the physical trail, so to speak.

And so it’s a matter of tuning to a high frequency and doing it often enough that there is consistency to what you are receiving. That’s the easiest way of explaining it. And the most important thing that we want to say to you, and to everyone, is you are all doing some of that, but you don’t usually do it consistently, and Esther is not always in the mode of receiving Abraham, either. But in a forum like this, it is easy for her to receive us because of the expectation of the audience. We ride in on the momentum of the desire that all of you have already established, and then Esther translates our vibrations, our knowing, into words.

Wayne Dyer: So you are really a collection of vibrations of this higher and higher frequency. Equivalent to God, would you say?

Abraham: Humans have a hard time defining us, and they also have a hard time defining God. And they also have a hard time defining those who once were in physical bodies who have now reemerged back into Non-Physical.

As humans—we love you so much—you have a screwy perspective of this continuum of life. Most humans believe that you come into these bodies and you live for a little while and you get it right or you don’t and then you leave, when really what is happening is you are Eternal. You never really leave.

And even when you are no longer focused in your physical bodies, you are still consciousness
and you are still focused on what’s going on here on Earth. There is a Collective Consciousness that is so interested, so eager about everything that you all are about. And that Source Energy is what Man wants to call God. You all have direct access to that.

Wayne Dyer: So, I’ve often said that we’re not here as human beings having a spiritual experience, but rather it’s the reverse. We are infinite spiritual beings just having a temporary human experience.

Abraham: When you stand in your now moment and you have practiced yourself into a high-flying vibration where you’re not ornery, or you’re not upset, or you’re not worried about anything, you then allow inspiration to flow. Now, you are so much more than what you have thought yourself to be. Now, you are the extension of Source Energy. That’s when you feel clarity and passion. That’s when your timing is good. That’s when you’re at your funniest. That’s when you feel the best.

You create your own reality and you do so because the thoughts that you are thinking cause you to emanate a vibrational frequency that the Law of Attraction is constantly responding to. And so, in all waking moments, you are creating your own point of attraction and everything that you experience is coming to you because of your vibrational emanation and the response of Law of Attraction to that vibration. It is as if you are standing on a sort of spinning vibrational disc and only things of the same vibration can join you on your disc. Your disc changes depending upon the thoughts that you are thinking and the emotions that you are feeling.

You choose the disc by the things that you focus on. You could choose one that feels like elation or love or freedom or joy. Or you could choose one that feels like grief or despair. You can tell what disc you are on by those who meet up with you. If you are surrounded by ornery people, you are on the ornery disc. It really is that simple. They have rendezvoused with you because you are perfect vibrational partners.

As you are able to place yourself consciously on these vibrational spinning discs, you can then understand unequivocally why every single thing that happens to you, or to anyone else, is happening.
