Pre-requisite:

The Law of Attraction

The Secret is the Law of Attraction

• “The Law of Attraction” was Hicks & Abraham’s earlier work.

• It became popular when it was introduced in “The Secrete”.

• A good understanding of this Law is necessary for understanding the power of emotions.

The Law of Attraction – Quotes “The essence of that which is like unto itself, is drawn.” – Hicks & Abraham

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” – Bible, Matthew 7:7

“… suppose we call it ‘The Law of Attraction’, of which Gravitation, Cohesion, Adhesion, Chemical Affinity or Chemism are but different aspects. … is the underlying cause of all that we call Energy, Force, Power, Motion, etc., in the Physical world.” – Though Vibration, by Walker Walker Atkinson (1906)

“There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way. There is no way to peace, peace is the way.” -- Thich Nhat Hanh

The Law of Attraction -- Implications You are the creator of your life experience.

You are the root cause of everything that happens to you.

You attract with your “mix” of vibrations.

Thoughts with higher intensity got manifested sooner.

The universe responds to your vibrations instead of your words.

Thus, What you “Want”, you may not get. What you “Don’t Like”, you may not be able to push away. What you “Fear”, you attract.

It is everywhere in the Nature

The same vibration will always attracts the same results

Part I

Discovering the Power

Welcome to Planet Earth! Coming to Planet Earth is like walking into a 3D Virtual Reality theater.

You have a history.

This is neither the beginning nor the end.

Everything “seems” to be real.

It provide new opportunities for you to expand and evolve.

The Glorious Planet Thrilled You(from your Non-Physical perspective) An absolutely exhilarating idea.

You felt unbounded enthusiasm for its variety.

The diverse beauty of the physical nature.

The diversity of the people and ideas waiting for you.

At no point did you feel concern about the perspectives of the inhabitants of your planet. Nor did you feel that you need to set them straight.

You knew that you had within you the resources -- not only to cope with your new environment, but also to mine it for the joyous expansion.

Remembering the Big Picture About the Non-Physical reality: It is real. It is vast it is a place (or rather, a Non-Place) of Pure,

Positive Energy.

It may seem foreign to you at first…

As you absorb it and consider it fully, you will begin to feel a recognition of this view.

At the deeper and broader level, you already know this.

As your perspective changes, your perception and experience will change as well.

You were an Idea From your Non-Physical vantage point, you gave birth to the physical you.

The physical you was once an idea, a though, an imagination.

With the manifestation of the physical you, the Non-Physical You remains Non-Physically focused.

Your relationship with the Non-Physical You is the most important thing in your life.

Everything that you are living is about your physical and Non-Physical point of view and how they interplay with each other.

Only through your emotions that you can clearly understand your relationship with the Non-Physical you.

Your Relationship with Your Inner Being Inner Being == Non-Physical You (Source, Soul, God)

It projected its Consciousness into the physical you.

You Inner Being is living, thinking, being, and evolving.

You are the furthermost extension of Source.

The Source is experiencing that expansion because of you, through you, with you.

Whatever happened to you, happened through you, and happened for you.

The Universe Continues to Expand Through You You see the world through your personal perspective of self

You cannot be other than “selfish”, for you cannot observe, perceive, or be other than from your perspective of self.

You always know more clearly what you do want when you are faced with what you do not want.

You are giving birth to new desires that are being born from the details of the life you are living out.

Your Inner Being Flows with New Desires Your Inner Being turns its undivided attention to that new expanded ideas and would literally become their “vibrational equivalent”. (Note: your Inner Being does not live in Time-Space continuity. It takes no time for it to change.)

You have the option aligning with the new idea (vibration) or resisting it.

The choice is what your life of joy (or of misery) is about.

For that is the point of your joyfully allowing you to be You (or not).

Thought Always Proceeds Manifestation Everything that you see around you was once a thought or an idea --- a vibrational concept that matured into what you call physical reality.

When it was thought long enough, by the Law of Attraction, it reached the maturity in which you now hold it.

Nothing exists that is outside of this process of creation.

Your planet was conceived from the Non-Physical realm long before human walked upon it.

You continue the creation of our planet, and life upon it, through your thought.

Vibrational Escrow Your hopes and dreams are held for you in a “Vibrational Escrow”.

The larger part of you has become it and is constantly and eternally calling the physical part of you toward it.

That calling feels to you like passion or enthusiasm (in its purest, non-resisted form.)

The most important question is: Are you letting you join the newly created, newly expanded version of You?

The answer lies in the way that you feel. > Positive emotions – you are being the expanded

version. > Negative emotions – you are not letting yourself

keep up with who you have become.

You Are a Vibrational Being You are a receiver of vibrational signals that you are translating through your physical senses into what you see, hear, smell, taste, and touch.

You did not need training.

You have a sixth sense – the sense of emotions.

E.g., “My feeling is hurt,” “I feel happy,” “I feel bad,” “I feel lonely,” …

Your emotion are literally your indication of how you are blending with You.

Your Emotions Are Absolute Indicators An awareness of your emotions and what they mean is essential to your evolution.

You must find a way to allow yourself to keep up with what life is causing you become, if you are to live the joyous life you came here to live.

The Expansion is Constant If your body does not look or feel the way you want it to: your desire for that improved bodily condition is

amplified, your Vibrational Escrow now expands to include that

desire.

Or, If you are not appreciated . . . (the same) If you are bored with what you are doing . . . If you are not appreciated . . . You do not have a significant relationship . . .

You are using the “data” that makes up the details of your life in order to expand --- and this expansion is constant.

It is All about Aligning Your Thoughts Allowing yourself to become what life has caused you to desire is not about action.

This is a mental process, not an action process.

It is about aligning of thought Energies.

You may eventually become inspired for some actions.

With alignment, your every effort will yield wonderful results, or return on your time.

Without alignment, the outcome will be disappointing.

Vibrational Alignment Feels Like Relief It is about aligning the vibration within your Being only.

It has nothing to do with anything that anyone else is doing.

Asking others to be different is not the answer.

Thus, you have total control.

When you are out of vibrational alignment, there is no action that will solve the problem.

Look for a way, any way, to feel better.

Find some sort of emotional relief about unsettled subjects.

Then you are on the way to an alignment of Energy.

Putting Your Canoe into the Stream Life is like rowing a canoe in a stream. Many people row upstream, against the current of Life.

Q: “What do you think about turning your canoe downstream and going with the current?”

“Oh, that just seems lazy!” “This is just what we all do here.” “This is what my mother did, and her mother

before her.” “All trophies and monuments are erected to

honor those hardworking people who stayed strong against the current.”

“… there are even more rewards after we die for those who work hard like this.”

Nothing That You Want is Upstream This is the Stream of Life. It was in motion before you came forth into the physical body.

You continue to add to the Current of the Stream by sifting through the data of your life.

> Every question you ask causes a formulation of an answer. (which is added to the current)

> Every problem you face causes a formulation of a solution. (which is added to the current, too)

If you will allow it, this Stream, this fast-moving Current, will carry you downstream to the fulfillment of everything that you life has caused you to create.

It is all there for you, waiting for you to flow to it.

Just Let Go of the Oars It is not necessary to put a motor on your boat in an attempt to make it go faster.

The Current will carry you . . . just let go of the oars.

Which is ever moving in the direction of that which you have become and all that you want.

The belief that there is something to overcome --- automatically points upstream.

The Law of Attraction Needs No Practice Just like the law of gravity requires no practice Falling up instead of down is not an option.

For example, If I feel unappreciated, the Law of Attraction

cannot surround me with people who appreciate me.

If I feel unhappy about my body looks, I cannot discover the process that is necessary to achieve a good-looking body.

The Law of Attraction simply reflects back to you an accurate response to your vibrational output.

Living the Law of Allowing Three major Universal Laws 1. The Law of Attraction 2. The Law of Deliberate Creation. 3. The Law of Allowing

The Law of Allowing is really all of your personal power lies.

Let go & let God.

With awareness and practice, it will become your second nature.

Part 2

Case Study

A Frightening Diagnosis Disease == Dis-Ease == Not aligning with Inner Being

The only thing you need to consider is: Am I pointing upstream or downstream.

Your emotion tells you two things: (1) how fast your Stream is Flowing (2) which direction you are pointed in the Stream.

Even the idea of “healing” is pointed upstream, for it implies an overcoming of the illness.

Disease = the Law of Attraction’s response to resistance.

Well-Being = the Law of Attraction’s response to allowing

A Frightening Diagnosis (Cont.) Some upstream statements:

This is a very scary diagnosis. I should have taken better care of myself. This disease is hereditary. The options for treatment aren’t pleasant. How did I get here? Why did this happen to me?

A Frightening Diagnosis (Cont.) Still upstream …

I can beat this. I’m not going to let this get the better of me. I’m not ready to go yet. I will triumph over this.

A Frightening Diagnosis (Cont.) Downstream …

This diagnosis has caused me to ask for even more wellness. The larger part of me has already achieved that wellness. I will continue to evolve and ask for more. The Law of Attraction is calling the rest of me toward that

improved state. The natural Current is moving in the direction of my Well-Being. My Well-Being is inevitable. . . . Improvement is natural. All in good time.

Since My Father Died,I Cannot Find Balance You are a vibrational being.

Most people carry residual vibrations from past experiences.

Your parents often set your vibrational tone.

Much of the way you respond to life today, has a great deal to do with your very early awareness of physical life.

Yet, your vibrational nature has matured and evolved.

You are offering may vibrations that do not relate to your past.

During the funeral, the intensity of those few days, you reactivated your vibrational past, which is not a match of your vibration now.

Since My Father Died … (Cont.) Downstream …

I feel out of sorts. I wasn’t ready for the death of my father. I’m sorry that I didn’t spend more time with him. I don’t know what he really wanted. I wish his life could have been more satisfying to him. I should have tried harder. I don’t know what I should have done different. . . .

Since My Father Died … (Cont.) Pointing Upstream …

Our relationship was what it was. And we are only one facet of each other’s multifaceted lives. I wasn’t born to live my life for him, nor was he born to live his life

for me. Maybe nothing went wrong. . . . I am thankful for the early basis that my parents provided. I cannot go back and relive my life. There are many positive aspects to my life experience. I’m quite happy about the way my life is unfolding.

Since My Father Died … (Cont.) Upstream …

I had a wonderful childhood. It was good in so many ways. I appreciate my parents, who gave me the

avenue into this wonderful life. They provided the avenue and then set me

free to create my own life experience. Life is good.
