Spiritual Drifts from The River of Karma

…..fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words, they are perspectives.

If the line above sounds familiar, it’s primarily because it’s a line from the movie, V for Vendetta.(I love that movie, and think its in a class of its own)Let me first say, that the line is more politically inclined.

So what does that have to do with the Law of Attraction? Well, in an odd way of looking, quite a bit really. And hopefully once you’re done with this, I would have conveyed that message that isn’t said in the countless millions of posts that has talked on the ominous Law of Attration.




We’ll start at the beginning….my beginning




For a while now, I’ve been listening Michael Losiers – Law of Attraction audio book. My personal feeling in regard to Losier is one – the guy is sheer Genius.

Oh no wait, I meant “Marketing Genius”. And it ends there.

He took a topic, broke it down into simple lay man English, added a book and Bam, he’s added a bestseller to his credit. I’m still wondering why I didn’t think of it first.

But it was one portion of his audio that clicked some of the pieces for me – his “What do you want” method. Losier’s approach is first determine what you don’t want, move away from it and ask yourself “What do you want” (If you’re wondering, I can hear the voice in my head as I type this)

Now, this was in fact the message was said on The Secret as well, only not very clear. In fact, it was so befuddled, the message was either intentionally obscured or somehow lost.

And that message is – Attraction is a perspective.



What do I mean?





Quite recently, my darling and I– yes, ROK is in a blooming relationship and loving every minute of it - had a discussion about The Secret. It was thru my darling sweetie I realized many people view LoA as just Positive Thinking. That was the clincher that made me realize why it took so long to understand the Law of Attraction.

Because Positive Thinking has been around for a bit, and Attracting sounds like it, the assumption is, The Law of Attraction is just Thinking Positive.

No, it isn’t.

Law of Attraction isn’t just only about Positive Thinking. It isn’t just about Positive Feeling either. It’s the combination of both and one important ingredient all the articles on the internet isn’t quite getting:
Positive Believing.



What?
To explain what I mean here, it is best I use an analogy to paint the picture

– Imagine Positive Thinking akin to a Car.
– Imagine Positive Feeling akin be the type of car. Eg. Mercedes, Rolls, BMW (I’m so driving a beemer in my head)
– Now imagine Positive Believing to the fuel you put into the car.

Which means, when it comes to attracting, you can have any car model you want, but if you don’t have the Believe, “it is not going to happen” because its like to you moving the car by hand.

Which means, even if you know what you what, if you ain’t believing it, you aint going no where.



Where is this said?
Once you come to realize the message, you’ll see its everywhere. It has been shouted from rooftops forever.

In The Secret, you’re advised not to think of what you don’t like E.g. Bills. Why – Because the more you see them, the more you’ll believe in it, and hence the more you’ll get.

Successful businessmen have said for ages. Richard Branson with “You have to believe that you can do it”. Another example is Donald Trump with his “ To be a winner, you have to think like a winner!”. To think like a winner, you have to Believe you’re a winner.

Granted, I want to add that in my personal opinion, Karma has a big part to play in attracting/manifesting (I’ll explain another time perhaps). But when it comes to the Law of Attraction, it’s important to believe.

When you believe, you see from that POV.

Why? Because Attracting isn’t just words or feeling, it’s a perspective. One that works right when you believe just right.
