If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Sayings & Meanings | You Get What You Pay For
Unity Consciousness #2100

.

( 9aiy of 11)

So many ways to describe the truth and so many ways to devise the lie. So many ways they narrowly and broadly apply. So many ways to analyze and critically size (criticize). So many ways to identify. So many ways to despise the ones who try.
Dozens of times during this safari, we have uncovered many more meanings to common sayings as we have regained a more comprehensive level of awareness.
The saying, You Get What You Pay For, like all blindly repeated statements, contains both truth and lie. Which is which depends on your orientation to the meanings of the words in the sentence. All meanings contain truth and lie.

1. The higher the price, the better the item paid for. And the other way around. This is the most commonly promoted meaning of the phrase You Get What You Pay For. It is the most suboptimal understanding because it serves the purpose of the kind of thinking necessary to fuel the subjugation of creation to the degree humanly possible.

2. In some instances we can easily see how to give your life for freedom is worth it but to give your life for a job by today's standards, is not worth your life.

3. The price you pay is exactly equal to the quality you get.

4. The price you pay is equal to the value of what you are paying for.

5. Whatever it is you are paying for is exactly what you get.

6. What about free stuff? Do you get free stuff because you paid for free stuff?
So if "you get what you pay for" means the more you pay the better quality you get, then free stuff is always low quality.

7. What about stolen stuff? Do you get stolen stuff because you paid for it? Does the government get your money in various ways because they paid for it in various ways? Or is your continuous voting via your daily thinking and behavior, the payment for whatever the government does?

8. If you think you are buying something to eat that is nutritious, even if the item is not nutritious, you are still getting what you pay for. How is that? You are getting the results of the logic you are following that allows you to be deceived. Therefore when we are deceived we are getting the results of the logic we have invested in and paid for and rely on. When you rely on inaccurate logic you will often buy into inaccurate logic. And the other way around. If we have not paid the price to mature in knowledge of self, then we will get the results of lack of knowledge of self.

9. You get whatever it is you have paid for, earned, deserved, worked for, developed, nurtured. What about good and evil? Do we get good because we have paid for it?

10. #9 above is continued by saying, this is better understood through the word “You”. The more you think “You” only means you the individual and that you the individual are a single entity during a single span of time, the more confused you will be about things that require an understanding of your total identity. In previous messages, we discussed Who You Are and You Are Who and I am and I am remembered.

11. Since You is “IU” and IU is the Creator-Destroyer, then the phrase can be IU Get What IU May Form. In other words God gets what God creates and destroys. And so do we as individuals or in any other grouping.

12. You get what you pay for is the same as You get whatever you may form. You may form thoughts so you get whatever your thoughts form and you get the form of your thoughts. You also get your behavior or lack thereof.

13. You get the attention you paid for. You also get the inattention you pay for because you pay the price for inattention, thus you pay after the fact of lack and you pay for slack. In other words you get what you give. It's called comeback. This answers the question of freely given and freely taken and whatever is not protected is for the taking and the greed that accumulates when dynamic balance is forsaken. All this must be taken into consideration combined with the expanded identity of You.
