Abraham used to call his seminars “The Science of Deliberate Creation” but stopped because people seemed to be taking it too seriously and getting all caught up on it.
Instead, Abraham now talks about the “Art of Allowing” – allowing what’s good to come to you, rather than needing to deliberately create it. I have a feeling that they changed “science” to “art” also to make it seem more intuitive, rather than a specific, methodical process. Science needs to be painstakingly methodical, art flows naturally.
In most places that I see however, I hear talk about the Science of Deliberate Creation. Scripting, Pray Rain Journals, visualizations, etc. I’ve done these, but the artificialness of the techniques usually wanes on me. To stop and pursue the new feeling often feels like a chore, too. I seem to be in the minority – many love it their deliberate creation time – but I seem to quickly lose the inspiration of the new vision, and just want to move on, usually long before it’s manifested.
Regardless, Abraham seemed to mean this: stop focusing so much on the creation, and just allow. He says “nothing is more important than that you feel good” because feeling good itself – being in alignment – is its own manifestation technique.
Motivations aside, I’m really not sure WHAT I want to create. Having analyzed my motivations at a deeper source, and rediscovering my religious roots, I’m very much up in the air at the present moment. I’m still exploring and letting it settle.
There are many other complementary techniques that seem to completely or mostly focus on the Art of Allowing – e.g. Sedona, Release Technique, Ho’oponopono/Zero Limits (“Ice Blue!”), The Work, Power of Now/Tolle, Jamie Smart’s The Art Of Being, Effort Free Life System by Chris Payne.
So I’m curious – is anyone else focus mostly on Being and allowing? Do you have recommendations for moderately active communities (not so large you lose the personal connection), or even chat rooms to hang out in?

Hi Avi,
You have a good point here, I think Abraham is trying to say enjoy the journey, the experience of creating without obsessing so much on just the end result. Enjoy each moment as if you are already there, where you want to be. Relax, let it go and allow it in.
By the way, nice to meet you!
Namaste,
Michelle
Hi, Avi,
I am at the very beginning of my focus on Being and Allowing. It’s taken a bunch of years of work to get to this very beginning, too. Thank you for sharing your journey – it’s always good to know I’m not alone on the path.
