Abraham: Pure Thought vs. Action Hours
Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008
I recently purchased an audio CD from Abraham-Hicks that is awesome! Its on Money & Manifestation, and there was one part in particular that I found fascinating! And that is the concept of pure thought vs. action hours.
On the recording, a seminar participant asked Abraham about something shes trying to create in her life, but she isnt able to take much action on it because shes got a lot of responsibilities (kids and whatnot). So she feels like shes not getting where she wants to be fast enough.
In part of Abrahams response, they said, People will say to us, I cant just quit my job and go sit on the beach and meditate. Or I cant stop what Im doing and just imagine. I have children to feed or dishes to wash or things to do. And we say, we are not encouraging you to stop the action part of your life. We are encouraging that you act just a little bit less and that you envision just a little bit more.
Then they went on to explain how much power there is in pure thought vs. the equivalent amount of action hours you would have to take to achieve the same burst of energy. Its mind blowing!
Basically, 17 seconds of pure thought (meaning, no contradicting thoughts interrupting) is equivalent to 2000 action hours. So the results you could achieve by taking 2000 hours of focused action, you can also achieve with 17 seconds of pure thought.
But it gets better! Because energy attracts like energy, that first 17 seconds of pure thought will attract another thought of the same vibrational equivalent. And when those two thoughts come together, there is an explosion of energy that multiplies the effect times 10.
Equivalent = 20,000 action hours. The next 17 seconds, times 10 again = 200,000 action hours. On and on it goes!
Can you see why this is so powerful?
Ive never heard this before. I dont think its mentioned in the two Abraham books I have - or if it is, I completely missed it.
But it clears up something for me regarding physical action vs. visualization.
For most of my life I only knew how to create results through taking physical action. (Like most of us, I imagine!) Id get an idea about something, work my butt off, and make it happen through sheer determination. And yes, I achieved some decent results doing that . . . sometimes.
Unfortunately, more often than not I would feel like I was on a treadmill. Taking action after action and not really getting where I wanted to be. And its so clear to me why! I was taking constant action, but at the same time I was emitting a contradictory vibration that prevented my desires from being manifested.
But THIS is why visualization is so powerful, because of the energy it generates. That doesnt mean action is never necessary; of course sometimes it is. But the action is a complement to the energy youve already released through pure thought (visualization).
Anyway, I browsed around the Abraham-Hicks website this morning to try to find a written transcript of this audio, but I couldnt find anything. But then I was led to one of their videos on YouTube, and that led me to another video and another - and suddenly I found a clip of that exact recording I just quoted above! Ask and you shall receive.
So here you go. Watch, absorb, and then go visualize your heart out!

It's interesting to hear Abraham in an early stage as it seems they are not as fluid on their speaking as now, where they interact, it is very "human", for lack of better word .

discovering what you are wanting and then attracting it to your experience...is your work here...could you give us a system:I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I WANT i want to know what i want i want to know what i want i want to know what i want i want to know what i want i want to know what i want i want to know what i want i want to know what i want i love the music i want to change my sign in name there is good in all experience...that it is never necessary to attract a bad experience in order to...
