Why Spiritual Laws don’t seem to work
I was asked by a friend what effect false premises might
have when people are practicing
the law of attraction:
The Law of Attraction states that our thoughts
and feelings attract our experiences and if we
are conscious we can use this law to attract that
which we want. The law works whether we are
using it deliberately or have no idea of its existence.
Those who want to be more active in their experience
and take more responsibility for their lives are
practicing this law consciously as co-creators with the
Universe/ God/ All that is…..
Here are some I’ve done and seen done:
Creating from a place of LACK = LACK
Creating from fear brings fear
Creating from desire brings desire
I think you’re seeing the point. One of the Quotes from my book
UNDRESSING GOD says, ” My Intention creates my result.”
Specifically, If someone is wanting a mate they may do everything right
in forming the picture of what they are wanting to attract but the ENERGY
of the wanting way out weighs the words and thoughts.
Some of you may have heard the chanelings of Abraham and he
talks a lot about the juice, the energy, the emotion and how that
is the real fuel that rockets the desired into manifestation right?
I’ll share the story about the flat tire to demonstrate my point.
When I wished these careless teenagers who were driving
recklessly through the parking lot a flat tire
with a lot of energy in the form of anger and then less than a mile down
the road I got a flat tire…. And then I stood there and wished all the
drivers passing by luck with the lottery, well I didn’t win the lottery
but I did get the flat tire!
That sums up my point,
I wished those teenagers would get
a flat tire with all my heart I saw it and I felt it,
I thought it would teach them a lesson that I felt they
desperately needed to get!
When I wished my fellow drivers would win the lottery
that was coming from a place of lack in me.
I was trying to ‘cash in’
on a principle I had just clearly seen demonstrated before me.
The only difference in the two ‘prayers’ was the energy around
my intention. Now you might ask, Why did ‘you’ get the flat tire
and not those teenagers?
Good Question, now we’re into another
Spiritual Law; you cannot create in another persons world.
We are all co-creating with the Spirit that resides with us
and UNLESS the other person we
are wishing something for wishes it also for themselves and is open
to receiving it, our prayer, our wish, boomerangs right back to it’s creator,
in this case me. I got what I sent out because those teenagers
certainly weren’t open to learning the lesson I felt they needed
AND certainly were not wanting a flat tire to spoil their fun.
The last point I’ll make is the speed at which I received my creation.
It took less than 4 minutes to manifest EXACTLY what I wished for!
Why?
Because of the amount of clarity and energy
that was behind the words I spoke!
I’d love to hear about your experiences too so please leave a comment!

Karen this is terrific! I really love the way you help people understand the difference between thinking a thought and having the energetic feeling that is required to manifest the thought.
Well spoken. I have to research more on this as it is really vital info
Dear Res.
If you have specific questions please email me. I would be happy to have
a conversation with you. Also if there is a topic you'd like to explore in
relation to this let me know and perhaps a show would be in order1
Thanks for sharing.

Karen, I had never thought about the distinction you make: " you cannot create in another persons world." Unless, as you say, they are open to it. This makes so much sense to me! Lovely post! Courtney
Courtney,
This is a key point and one of the many reasons people think that Spiritual Laws do not work.
Most people, like me at one time, make goals and see needed changes for everyone around
them but themselves. They become stuck saying: I'd be ok if; He would just do this or she
would be kinder, or they wouldn't do that anymore…. leaving themselves out of the equation
and the result is victimhood and stuckness.
Taking responsibility for oneself isn't always fun especially if it involves change, old habits, and
evacuating comfort zones! However, being responsible for what we can change which is parts
of ourselves like our perceptions, not taking comments and behaviors of others personally, and
choosing to reflect before we react will put us back in our own drivers seat so to speak.
This doesn't always change things outside of us but it does change us and when we change
our situation reflects that. People who have been an irritant may somehow slip out of your life,
new friends who are more aligned with your greater sense of self awareness may find their way
into your life and sometimes there aren't tangible changes but we find ourselves no longer upset
by the previously irritating situation. We do always have a choice to re-think, take responsibility,
and relax!
Isn't life too short to keep ramming our heads against the wall even if we feel we are RIGHT~?
You're not only beautiful but WISE! Your story of the flat tire and lottery and the intensity of the thoughts you generated coming back at you like a boomerang when you had the flat tire 4 minutes later but no lottery winnings is a powerful lesson.
Thank you!

Yes Debby it was. Sometimes the Universe provides you with one of those can't be mistaken messages.
I'm glad I had the clarity to appreciate it instead of feeling punished like I might have before I realized
that I am loved by all that is and no one is out to get me. Having a firm grasp of how we create and how
much freedom we really have to create is a guiding force in my life. I'm glad my experience was helpful,
that makes it even more valuable for me! Thank you for your comments Debby.
