Karma and the Law of Attraction

What do you think of "The Law of Attraction" and The Secret?

It is an amazing sign of our transforming times that "The Secret" has exploded to the extent that it has in pop culture. Millions have watched the DVD and/or read the book, and are enthusiastically experimenting with what has primarily floated my adult creative life - the power to energetically manifest dreams.

The Law of Attraction basically says "like attracts like". What we think, how we feel, and most importantly, what we believe in our heart of hearts to be true is what we create and what we become. The secret to success, says the law of attraction, lies in our developed power to daydream with our fully unleashed imaginative capacity - and even more importantly, to unconditionally, completely believe it.

Create Your Vision

We envision, we fully experience, and we see ourselves in the present enjoying our vision, which profoundly signals the universe to exactly manifest it in truly miraculous ways. We allow - we appreciate = as the matrix to create. So it is.

Can we recover personal power, self-esteem, creative and intuitive insight, foundational motivation, and general chutzpah to "get going" and achieve our goals through this practice? You bet your life we can. Is that all there is to manifesting?

The Law of Attraction Does Not Exist in a Spiritual Vacuum

The answer to that question is, not exactly. The law of attraction does not exist in a spiritual vacuum. That is impossible. It exists instead as a part of the divine universe - harmoniously with the law of action and its corresponding consequences, also called the law of karma.

The Law of Karma

All actions bring consequences, which I believe keep us rightly anchored to an endless present, and therefore free to be able to respond - the break-up, reversed, of the word "responsible". I don't think this is an accident. It is how healing and development works on the physical plane through countless lifetimes.
