📜 “Ask & you shall receive” is the censored version

The true quote, edited out in the 4th century is:

“Ask without hidden motive and be surrounded by your answer

Be enveloped by your desire that your gladness be full”

How to Ask (THREAD) 👇🏼
...this reveals we’ve been doing it all backwards. Asking backwards

2 elements it’s telling us:

- No hidden motive
- You must already have what you ask for

Here’s how they come together
🔹 Hidden Motive

On the surface we think we are asking someone out on a date

We think we’re asking for a job or for a client or for a sale

But there is often a hidden motive...
Using the other person to give us validation,

help boost our self worth and confidence,

give us something to do because we’re bored

Use them as permission to begin loving ourselves (hidden motives we might not be aware of)
Here’s where it all ties in...

🔹Enveloped by your desire that your gladness be full

Your cup must already be full!

You can’t ask for what you don’t have
- You can’t ask for love if you don’t love yourself/your life

- You can’t ask for a business to give you value(money). If you don’t bring value

🍻 🔑 When your cup is full you naturally won’t have a hidden motive
So then we’ve been doing it all backwards

This is the solution. The counterintuitive way:
🔑 Also notice a very keyword seen three times. BE

Actually BE about it.

It’s not something you DO, a technique to trick your mind.

Seeking to cheat the system and have some ‘law of attraction vodoo fall from the sky’

Dishonest expectations get met with dishonest results
Thought + Emotion unify into belief when you’re actually BEING about it.

“As you believe so shall you become”

Part mental + part actually respecting and loving yourself enough to take positive actions to unite thought & emotion into belief
🏰 “Seek first the kingdom and the desires shall come to you”

Kingdom is mental and it’s the life you build

“The less we deserve something the more we hope for it”

When your asks stop being hopes.

But supplements to your current reality....your desires come effortlessly
