Why order with lack at the Universal restaurant?

22 replies
The work of the universe is to give and our job is to receive, and we receive to the extent that we are prepared to receive.

Imagine that you are at the Universal restaurant and you can order whatever you want. The only issue is that in this restaurant they only serve orders to go, but they do not provide containers to carry the food because they do not know the quantity of food each person wants to order. You must then go to this restaurant with your own container and you can take as much food as the capacity of the container you've chosen.

In front of you there is every type of food and delicacy you can imagine - you may partake without limits - the only limitation is the size of the container you have chosen, if you selected a small container you can only take a tiny portion of the unlimited abundance that is in front of you.

When we approach the Universal Wealth, we are the containers, our tendency is to approach the Universal Wealth full of limitations. Self chosen limitations that prevent us from partaking of the unlimited abundance of the Universe.

I cannot, I am not worthy, it is impossible, I'm a loser, I am too old, is too late for me, I have no knowledge, I have no luck, I do not deserve it, I have no other way out, there are no opportunities for me, I have fear, what if all goes wrong, I have very bad luck, there is no real happiness, money is only for some lucky people and I'm not one of them.

What are your limitations?

The universe pours its abundance without limits on all of us and each of us receive what we can fit within the walls of limitations that we had created.

We could do a dissertation on how these limitations have come to you, through the collective and individual consciousness, and yet this would be a waste of time for both of us.


<span title="No importa como estas limitaciones han llegado a ti, lo importante es que seas consciente de cuales son las limitaciones que te están impidiendo recibir la abundancia del universo y que las elimines.">It doesn't matter how those limitations have come to you, what is important is that you become aware of those limitations that are preventing you from receiving the unlimited abundance of the Universe,%2/>

    i understand this concept .

    limitation is part of humanity ..but those limits are there for us to push against and challenge ..instead many of us refuse to push against any of our limits and stay imprison in boxes built when we where children and teens..only expanding where we believe we have permission

    the more common problem is not the size of someone container .

    my take is the bigger problem with abundance is that to many people feel they need to have what they don't like removed from the buffet ..before the feel they are worthy of eating what they like and enjoying it .

    then even when they grab what they like ..the find misery because they didn't grab everything they liked or several other little things people put between them and enjoting what the universe provides .

    i really want scrambled eggs now but it is 5 pm ..so i should have somethat that people think of as dinner instead of breakfast

      Thank you for your reply


      I agree with you that many people thinks they don’t deserve what they want and they have to take whatever is serve to them and maybe one day they will be able to eat what they really want and when they finally get what they want they live in fear of losing what they have.
      I also agree with you it is very important to remove the many labels we have for everything, and open our minds, is a path for every one of us.


      Bon apetite!!

    I like the metaphor of a restaurant for the repertoire of potential human experiences. What will you try to have?

    Wonderful thread! There are two things I remember while reading this. The girl who had a haircut who didn't say anything to the stylist even though she no longer liked what was done to her hair and the quote from "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" - "We accept the lovr we think we deserve."

    thinking about this more.

    in human terms the container is money ..when in reality there are so many more ways to get what we want than forking over an amount of money .

    many of us live where even the poorest people have luxruries kings didn't have 100 years ago ..and information only a select few had a few decades ago .

    but in a refusal to see the abundance we already have we are so sick with the illness of wanting what we don't have ..when what we don't have become something we do have we fail to enjoy it .

    in the great depression many people lost everything they owned ..in the depression the world is in now people lost stuff they thought where theirs by some kind of right ..houses they didn't own.. jobs that no one needed them to do anymore and other things gotten with money they borrowed and new they would never earn .

    if we want to live and experience abundance we must uncouple it from money ..money has it's place like food air and water ..but like food air and water there is really only so much you need day to day .. we are trying to take in asmuch money as we can hoping to get to some point where we have enough to live off of for the rest of our lives .

    though breathing is one thing ..through history food was grown parted of the year and stored the rest of the year .. and water came in one season and was stored or conservered the rest of the year ..and money was mainly used to pay taxes while people traded food and extra goods .


    if you are under 40 and willing to put in the effort to get healthy and stay healthy you can live another hundred years ..if you are over 40 and take care of your health .. you can easilt get to 90 or a hundred years old or greater .

    most people fear is running out of money .

    if you maintain your health and maintain your ability to earn the money to meet your current needs .

    and the definition of abundance i learned had everything to do with living and having your day to day needs met

      Thank you for your reply


      I agree completely with you life is not just about money and in our society money has become like God, pushing ourselves to have more and more of what we don’t even need to begging with. At the end of the day people become slaves of their possessions.


      But with I think we are the containers to receive the abundance of the Universe, and I am not referring just money, abundance of love, of happiness, of health, of joy.

    i will just bring up the life span issue again if you knew that you could live another 50 to 100 years .and stay healthy and active . or that there was a way to stay healthy and active the rest of your life and that the way you go would be sudden .

    today to many people are working trying to put enough aside to enjoy life some after they wear out their bodies . then they can't work . but they where also trained to be spare parts in the machine of industry .

    the old way or they way of the last hundred years was you got money from working a job you where supposed to get love from having a family , happiness really didn't matter just be thankful you where not in a hellhole of a country , your health was in your doctors hands ..and joy was for spare time .

    but that in many ways was better than the state of 10000 years before .

    today we have a really new choice that the best option is to seek a way ti integrate it all together

      Yes I agree with you, we are complete systems. Body, mind, thoughts, and emotions they all have to be playing the same melody to express inner peace and happiness.



      And I agree also on living fully on the Now, instead of living all our lives getting ready to enjoy life sometime in the future once we retire, or who knows.


      Thank you again

    the only way to live in the know is to have as long a term perspective as possible into the future ..so it opens up what you should do know to get there .

    now i could have stayed on the path i was on not to long ago ..go on disability keep getting fatter ..and develop even more cronic conditions.. and most likely commit suicide in one way or another eventually

    but then the universe has layed out this interesting thing for me to do in this world and let me know i might want to stick around and watch..or help the changes going on .

    it also helps gaining a perspective on your past and why things happened the way they did ..which right now is easy for me as i put together a vision of where i am going . i only remember the past now to get a clear view of the many patterns going on now i wish to stop .

    to simplify it the human race kinda backs into the future right now as we move into a new age of possibilities people want to selectively recreate a time of safe jobs .

    we can either do the same as everyone else ..or we can eye what we want to be based of the possibilities now that never where there before ..and move forward toward how we wish to become .

    the shit in consciousness is only just beginning..the last 30 years was mainly jusy away from mass catastrophe..what we are going through now is a destruction of our "civilization..while leaving most of the people wondering what is happening ..which we shift into a new civilization over the next 30-100 years .

    those of us who are not to upset the aliens havn't come to save us yet and understand they will never "save" us ..really have to stop waiting or holding the light .

    to really be of any value today we must shine our lights on ourselves and clean up the messes we find there ..then live the best life we can and be there for those who ask what we are doing differently .

    today we have you tube we can post short movies about the intersting thing we do differently .

    let me explain the shift in consciousness in very few words ..it has been the nature of human consciousness to separate things and view things as machines and try to put things together in way we think they should work.

    now we have such a base of knowledge on how the smallest bits work on their own..we are starting to view how the pieces work together .

    so the shift will be from the system we have of putting things together in unnatural ways..to replicating and enhancing the way nature does it so that it will support a healthy earth and healthy humans .

      Well sometimes before we see light as a society we need to be in complete darkness.

      and yes we have to hold the light, we have to BE the light

    we are all beings of light are bodies built from plants grown in the sun ..and the elements in our bodies where fuzzed together in stars billions of years ago.

    i stay away from heavy new age forums and discussions and will leave this a little cryptic ..but but both the light and the darkness have changed ..if you have held light for many lifetimes and had to keep it hidden ..you have the option to use that light ..because there are new people stepping up to hold light who will not have the need to hide it .

    we need to relax and get our hands in the dirt to plant seeds of the new light .

    back to a conversation others will understand ..human are planted in a mindset of lack survival and suffering ..through history we had to exist from what nature provided . the soil was where nature had put it the waters where where nature made them flow ..and humans had to live within the limits of that and many other things .

    we are now freed from those restrictions as we can make very rich an healthy soil pretty much any where we want ..and pump or collect water we need ..and soon we will be able to desalinate water cheaply . then purify it with uv light .

    right now our civilization lives on fossilized light .. it is critical we learn to use the light we get from our sun today to meet many of the needs of today.

    in the light that has been being held for milinia by people are the ideas that are there to try .

    i am going to dial back closer to your original post .

    A very big problem people have with seeing abundance when we have so much ability to do so much ..is that many skills nearly every person had a hundred years ago .. that helped them survive and in many cases live real good lives ..have been removed

    if you put fresh tomatoes , lettuces, onions , ..and mushrooms down .. then put a knife down how many in a modern setting under 30 would know those are the ingredient to a salad ..and how many would know how to prepare the salad ..only the ones who worked in a fast food place maybe .

    i saw a you tube from jamie oliver the chef he went into a school with potatos and tomatos ..and many of the children had no idea what they where .

    because so many skills have been lost people are stuck with depending on how much money they make to buy stuff ..and for many cooking is following the direction on the back of the box .

    money the way it is implemented on our society if very wasteful..when working for money for every one dollar you get to spend you nearly have to earn two if you add in the taxes your employer pays on you .then to pay you that there was anywhere from 10-100 dollars the business had to generate

    then think about the money you spend to work for someones else ..

    so it is really wasteful if that is the only way you get the money to get things you want..to have money be. the only way to get the things you want .

    the way the universe works as you become better at tapping into all forms of abundance and need money less ..you will get all the money you will need

      All I have to say is - be careful what you decide to fill your plate with. People's minds are filled with fantasies and illusions based on the appearance of things and the lies and brainwashing they've been sold through the corrupt PR industry, gov., and interests.

      Quantity is not better than quality, especially quantities of junk and their side effects and future consequences that trickle down in various destructions.

      Though people are blinded by these illusions and shiny object syndromes and come to actually believe that all that glitters is gold, when it's often only surface paint hiding what's really underneath.

      In terms of restaurant analogies and food production, I encourage everyone to truly educate themselves on where their food comes from, how it's made and what is really hidden in it. People can start with watching Food Inc or reading up on all the food safey issues summarized here Organic Consumers Association

    plug in ,

    the only way to be real healthy in today's world is to grow your own highly nutrient rich foods..and prepare or cook most of what you eat .

    many of the sicknesses rampant today are not as much from the low quality of food.. but the extreme sense of disconnection our current social model provides as normal.

    with everything not just food ..to truly be healthy we need to connect with the consciousness of our body and listen when it tells us in it's way ..what to eat and not to eat .then we can connect with our food ..and depending on where we live connect with those who grow it ..and connect with the growing number of people looking for ways outside the system ..and when we can connect with the soil ..and feel the life .

    if we stop growing corn to feed to cattle and to gas tanks and return it to pasture land with well managed live stock herds ..and reboot the system so most food people eat is grown locally . with more efficient methods .we begin taking carbon out of the atmosphere ,we cut about half of our fosil fuel use ..and we improve the level of health of everyone.

    but their is so much profit in the model we have ..because ceos don't make much went people are healthy and happy
