Re: Abraham on focusing

In other words, a goal is in the future. Trying to achieve or attain a future goal will justify the means, it will justify any means that is meant to achieve the goal.
 
But really the whole thing has to be turned completely around and understood in the terms of the way is the goal. The means is the goal. And the way, the only way (the only means), is being in the present moment of here-now.

Ever wonder why time is referred to as a tense? The future is referred to as the future tense? It is because one is tense in wanting to get to the future from the here-now. The same with the past - the past tense. Thinking about a past situation brings in tension... it takes one out of the present moment and places you in a past situation.

The present is really not part of time.
Being in the present is really not being in a tense state. It is a state of relaxation. -no place to go, nothing to do. The doing, the going, will arise on its own out of the situation that comes with the next moment.

The next future moment can only be born out of this present moment. Feeling at ease in the present moment will create a future in which one will also feel at ease.
