68 seconds!

[ignacio241]

Probably many of you have heard the 68 seconds of pure focus from Abraham-Hicks! Can somone explain me in better detail how this works? what is it for? what does it mean by "pure" thought? How do you do this?

hi,

Meaning of pur thoughts is forgive everyone, don't hurt any one, don't give negative vibes to energy.
Try out meditation, the practice of meditation will make you realize what are pure thoughts .
A basic nature of human is peacefulness which we all have forgotten. Each one is so influenced with out side world that we don't know what are original thoughts feelings are, we manipulate as per the world around us.

I've been re-reading Ask and It Is Given, and am really in tune with the Abraham-Hicks teachings as of late. The 17 second technique is in the book, and is often taught and referenced in their Law Of Attraction workshops they give all over the world. Anyway, someone took the technique and make some helpful video of it, expanding it to the optimum 68 seconds. Here is the explanation:

"We encourage you to play with spending 17 seconds on any topic. If you hold any thought, positive or negative, wanted or not wanted, if you hold a thought purely for 17 seconds, that at the 17 second point, another thought just like it joins it. And as these two thoughts coalesce, there is a combustion. And as these two thoughts combust, they are parlayed into one more evolved, faster vibrating thought. And when it happens, you feel it. It feels like heightened interest or enthusiasm. If you hold that, now more evolved, thought for another 17 seconds, then when you cross that 34 second mark, the same thing happens. Another thought like the more evolved thought now joins it, and there’s another combustion point. Only this time, it moves much further than it did the first time, because the two thoughts that combined were bigger to begin with. Purely hold a thought for 17 seconds until it combusts and another thought joins it, and the Energy in that combustion is equivalent to 2,000 action hours. If you work a normal 40 hour a week job, that’s about what you work in a year. 17 seconds of pure thought, allowing the combustion, gives you that much Energy. Your action is not very important by comparison. Cross the 34 second mark, and you can multiply your action by ten. That’s 20,000 action hours. Cross the 51 second mark, and you can multiply by ten again. That’s 200,000 action hours. If you can hold a thought, purely, without contradicting it, until you cross the 68 second mark — that’s just four times 17 — you can multiply by ten again. That’s over 2,000,000 action hour equivalent. We’re talking about accessing the Energy that Creates worlds. And the reason that it is not fathomable to most of you is that most of you don’t make it past the eight second mark without contradicting your desire. "

Excerpted from G-10/17/96 — Syracuse, NY

(from the 68 seconds video website):
To simplify it:

17 seconds is worth 2,000 manhours (or about 1 year of action…)
34 seconds is worth 20,000 manhours (or about 10 years of action…)
51 seconds is worth 200,000 manhours (or about 100 years of action…)
68 seconds is worth 2,000,000 manhours (or about 1000 years of action…)

WOW! And the reason that it is not fathomable to most of you is that most of you don’t make it past the eight second mark without contradicting your desire. I guess I have been definitely falling into the “8 seconds and less of pure positive thought” group. Definitely something I need to work on and will make a concerted effort to do so.

The videos on 68 Seconds can help! There are several there about money and relationships. There is also a template one that is just counting down the 68 seconds. All of them will let you focus in a more positive way so why not give it a try?!





Hope this is helpful to someone.

Hello friends,
I've found this thread very informative. Galia, thank you for your wonderful first post. That cleared up a lot for me. Ask And It Is Given is on my to read list...

In regards to focusing on an intention with pure thought, I've met a famous billionaire who told me that the best time to do this is when the mind is in the alpha state...Usually right when you wake up in the morning and right when you go to bed.

I utilize these times and I capitalize on them with a few minutes of added meditation. I can feel myself going into a deep focused mind space. Once I feel I'm "there", I'll start in on focusing on my intention.

I hold this for as long as possible without breaking the thought and I can feel my mind getting heavy...I can feel the broadcasting of the intention going at full power.

Can anyone elaborate a little more on focusing and holding intent?
