Law of Attraction- A Material & Spiritual Life

[LuiBliss]

My philosophy is that of a balance between the material and spiritual life. A harmony with mind-body-soul-spirit. With that in mind, in addition to increasing spiritual awareness and moving towards enlightenment self actualization, enjoying a comfortable material life is obligatory. One can be satisfied with the basic necessities of life, but why settle for a Mazda when you can have a Porsche?

Health is the most important aspect to look after, however, in ones life. For without health it is very difficult to utilize the senses to appreciate what life has to offer.

Relationships. Man is a social animal, and needs to foster positive relationships with his peers as well as those of the opposite sex.

Wealth Have purpose in life and turn ones purpose into an income where he/she not only is able to help the world around her, but she is also materialistically rewarded in doing so.

When you work in alignment with your inner virtue and not merely your personality level desires, you get everything you need and more. But you can't attract something that isn't in line with your purpose here on Earth. Hence not everyone can attract infinite wealth, or we'd all be doing it. On a 3D material level, wealth looks good, but in terms of self-development instant wealth could be very bad for some people, self-destructive even.

You also can't attract something that is above your paygrade, in terms of learning. If your spirit is in grade 5 you can't manifest a lesson that's on the university level.

One way of looking at it is... all knowledge and all "things" already exist. Whether or not we can perceive them, learn from them, or "have" them is a matter of which gateways within ourselves are open.

Aha.. Very Insightful Foreigner.

Thank You Very Much for Sharing!

To simplify it, it's like working out (building muscle) you can attain it just 1st) how bad do you want it since big muscles require hours a day and many days a week for many years to attain.

It is possible for most people, it is easier for others because of genetic makeup etc. but also have that intense desire should be there.

I guess this is just another dynamic of what you are trying to say eh Foreigner..

I'm curious how the law of attraction works with lets say a child born in a country in the middle of a war or drought and starves to death by the age of two? How could this child attract this to themselves as their brain hasn't even developed yet? I've never bought into the explanation that they did something in a past existence to merit this fate since I've seen no convincing evidence for reincarnation. I was wondering if you or anyone could shed some light on this. We live in a country where we are relatively safe and have resources, often at the expense of others so I think we often forget about the real unfortunates in a world that seems to be doing something to them beyond any control they might have.

 

[LuiBliss]

In very simple terms CT, Law of Attraction works upon the overall conciousness of your direct surroundings. You cannot rise above that threshold. Plus the needs and desires of someone in that situation are different than your own. Other than that, what causes a person to be born in different situations is beyond the scope of this thread or my experienced knowldge. I am merely advocating that those that come in contact with this thread reach out, dream and work towards attaining their desires and have a lot of gratitude that you are able to do so in peace.

I've been manifesting some very advanced high-level lessons this year. Sometimes it's even too much or more than I want to deal with, but I guess I'm ready for it.

But you're right in saying we're not all prepared for the same lessons. I think we're all here to learn different things and one way of understanding that's right to some might not be appropriate for someone else. Some might be here to transcend material reality while others might not be meant to see beyond it.

In eastern philosophy the intention comes from the yi (意) which is a type of energy which inhabits the human consciousness, usually through the third energy centre, solar plexus. Some people naturally have a stronger yi. Life experience, like how you were raised or the values you were taught, will determine how well your yi is trained. I suspect that it's also a soul level talent that is developed over many lifetimes in some people. But... it's an ability that may be wide open or locked down depending on what the soul is here to learn.

But... my earlier point is that it's going to be hard to put your intention into something you don't really want. For instance a lot of people want money but there are subconscious programs stopping them from achieving it, like feelings of guilt or unworthiness. They may be on the personality level or they may be installed much deeper as an outpouring of their spirit... in which case they will never be able to manifest it.

Whereas, if something is part of your life path, it will be easy to ask for it. It will feel right on all levels, once you realize that's the thing you're supposed to do. It becomes so easy that you manifest things without actually having to focus on it.

It's not so much about them deserving it but it's about what's happening on the level of the spirit. Everything that happens on Earth is material and temporary. Think about a soul that is perhaps thousands of years old in linear time, and is immortal. A suffering life of 30 years in order to extract a key lesson is not really that long. The suffering feels real and vivid while it's happening but once it's over, it's gone. It's hard to know which material happenings translate to what on the spirit level, because we are all living under the veil of material life which prevents remembering.

And I don't say that as someone who comes from a privileged life. I have suffered horribly, beyond what a lot of people could tolerate. I now see its utility. It has turned me into a much more advanced person. But it's bitter work and there is always the risk of self-destruction.

People who are born into intense trials have the most to gain, if they don't succumb. Or maybe it's an atonement of some kind, hard to say. For it doesn't feel like an atonement exactly but a lot of good has been extracted from it... but it has had a touch of "paying my dues" in there a littlqe bit.

But you're right in saying we're not all prepared for the same lessons. I think we're all here to learn different things and one way of understanding that's right to some might not be appropriate for someone else. Some might be here to transcend material reality while others might not be meant to see beyond it.

It depends on the lesson and it's hard to gauge who is advanced and who isn't, on the soul level, just by examining their life superficially. I see this in astrology a lot. People who have really harmonious charts with no conflicts also lack depth of perception and understanding. Outwardly their lives seem full, complex, rich, and privileged, but inwardly they don't have a lot of complexity. And that's ok, it's neither good nor bad. An easy life is not necessarily a better life, in cosmic time.

Attracting money for the sake of money alone is more difficult than attracting money as a means to accomplish something in life.

This is what Foreigner is trying to say I think about putting your intention where you really want. A good way to test out if you really want what you think you desire is to meditate and visualize the overall picture of what you want your life to look like. I mean, you may have a set determined purpose in life, but that doesn't mean you have to allow your life to bring you whatever random shit it throws at you. You can be a conscious creator. To be as dedicated as you can to manifest your desires takes hard work, especially depending on the scope of your desires and how much change you want from your current life.

A powerful way to begin making changes in your outward life is to begin from the inside. This is why I recommend a daily meditation practice where you start by watching your breath just like most regular meditations for 5 minutes, then proceeding with the visualization.

Visualization is great because you get to 'test out' if your desires are truly your desires and are truly worth sacrificing for and if they are you continue. What meditation will also do is ingrain in your subconscious that this is your life and this is the 'new' you and you begin to see new opportunities. At first you will need to recognize them and mindfully take them. Later on it becomes second nature.

I'm not sure if it's crazy to bump an eight year old thread that I started, but thought I would do anyway.

Just wanted everybody to know that I am still at it, utilizing the Law of Attraction to manifest the life of my dreams.

I've got a new YouTube channel that I would love if you would check it out.

The channel website is YouTube.com/@WisdomCoachingGuru

and a video that is directly related to The Law of Attraction would be:-



Please do subscribe to my channel to stay informed of new videos as they come.

And do let me know of your trials and tribulations in manifesting abundance.

And do share with me, what does a life of abundance look like to you?!

 

[paltatomate]

And do share with me, what does a life of abundance look like to you?!

i want freedom.

which means not a total lack of material possessions or relationships, but rather a selection of valuable ones.
and the value of each of them can change with time.
so what i have been trying to learn is to determine what is important to me in this current situation, how to get it, but also how to dispose of all what i don't need anymore.
because having too much weights a person down, making them less free.

so i would say abundance of anything is not for me.

ok great @lecroute

now lets delve deeper and find out what you mean by freedom?

what kind of freedom do you want? what does freedom look like to you?

for example, for me, freedom would look like the freedom to smoke anywhere I like indoors, and I'm using the law of attraction to materialize that.

For me also, freedom means material abundance and financial freedom. The freedom to own the house i want, the car i want and go to the places i want. I am also aiming for a private jet, and that is a heavy material possession, but it will also allow me to have the freedom to travel whenever i want to wherever i want with complete ease.

Most importantly is the avenue to attain all this is the freedom to make a living doing what I love. and not be encumbered by peculiar taks that i am not fond of to attain my freedom in the material and the spiritual.

Thats right, i, myself, aim for spiritual abundance as well. a balance betgween the material and the spiritual. a whole life. and making the most of the earth and what it has to offer. Basically having everything with the ability to do anything i want.

I want to be like a spoilt child in his own playground. And i want others to experience the same.

I think this is where i differ from other teachers of the law of attraction because it seems like it is all "me, me, me" with that practice. But i try and envision a better world for all of us to live in. and would love to get together an cooperate with others sharing the same/similar vision where the whole world basks in happiness, abundance and freedom.

so back to you, does this resonate with you at all? how does it feel to you? and lets go deeper into your ultimate lifestyle.. defining specifically how you would like your life to play out and i plan to be supportive in that in any way i can and there are others to who are there as well

 

[paltatomate]

I am also aiming for a private jet, and that is a heavy material possession, but it will also allow me to have the freedom to travel whenever i want to wherever i want with complete ease.

this sounds very materialistic to me, and material things tend to weigh people down instead of making them free.

the freedom i want is the ability to make my own choices, based on my own set of values.
i agree that having financial resources can help you a lot with that, but i don't see having money as a something you absolutely need to be free.

for example, for me, freedom would look like the freedom to smoke anywhere I like indoors, and I'm using the law of attraction to materialize that.

now, how do you do that?
if it were something really important to me, i would find out where the best indoors place it is to smoke, and then just do it. which in that case it would be me taking the freedom of doing what i want, using my personal valued not to do it a place where i would either get caught or disturb others too much.
would that go along with the idea of the law of attraction?
or would the law of attraction mean to focus on laws on smoking indoors to be changed?

Most importantly is the avenue to attain all this is the freedom to make a living doing what I love. and not be encumbered by peculiar taks that i am not fond of to attain my freedom in the material and the spiritual.

doing what you love is always great, but if you do it to get financial abundance so you can afford your material possessions, it will soon become just a job. and i think it will even become a very stressful one.

i don't say everything is wrong with the theory of the law of attraction.
like i mentioned before, i got thing i absolutely really wanted by just absolutely really wanting them. because my enthusiasm made me overcome barriers, and it made others help me achieve my goal. all this happened long before i heard about the law of attraction as a thing, and when i finally did read about it, i felt a bit disappointed because it was so focused on what you mentioned: getting what you want like spoilt child.

We live in a material world, and this material world is awesome and deems to be enjoyed by those that appreciate it. This is also a spiritual world, and spiritual gifts are also enjoyed by those that appreciate and strive for them.

its not the material things that weigh people down. It's the attachment to material things that weighs them down!

I am perfectly happy right now living my very simple life in my parents basement. I appreciate and love my parents so much and my brother too. I enjoy every moment because I have practiced meditation, spirituality and mindfulness since being a young adult.

Coming to the place that I am in now, which is perfect contempt, satisfaction, and happiness. And although I am currently on house arrest, I have never felt freer. Because I am making the most of my life, thankfully and in gratitude.

Again, I have an awesome relationship with my family and I am looking to have a romantic relationship with somebody special hopefully soon. And in addition to that, I want nice things for us, a nice house with a nice kitchen, and ultimately have a maid in our house so we don't have to waste time doing mundane tasks like cleaning. And also have a chef cook our meals a couple of times a week to have high quality gourmet meals cooked in our kitchen.

A nice car that you really appreciate because it is a piece of artwork is also something that brings me happiness. So I'm not into labelling things as this is too material or not. This is the planet we found ourselves in and we have a vast imagination that we can use to live the life that we want to live.

I feel no pleasure in selling myself short or living to sub-par standards.

I value freedom very much and i have lived with absolutely nothing. I have been homeless in my life not too long agoo. There was a time when I wanted nothing to do with my parents and brother.

I have come to learn a lot and appreciate things a lot more. And appreciate them a lot and even appreciate something so seemingly basic as having a roof over my head, a bed and blankets. Food and cigarettes that are readily available.

It's about balance. and I think its about being honest with what you truely want, and getting rid of preconceived ideas about what the meaning of material possions will do to your freedom.

Having an RV will allow you to have the most amazing advetures and experiences you could imagine. And the more expensive the RV is, the more comfortable your roadtrips would be. so why not? wouldnt an RV give you the freedom to travel to some amazing locations?! Thats one kind of freedom I suppose.

the freedom i want is the ability to make my own choices, based on my own set of values.

can you explain?

now, how do you do that?
if it were something really important to me, i would find out where the best indoors place it is to smoke, and then just do it. which in that case it would be me taking the freedom of doing what i want, using my personal valued not to do it a place where i would either get caught or disturb others too much.

Well, in Canada, it's completely illegal to smoke indoors in any public location. So I will use my manifestation method and intnetion to bring about change that its infridging on people rights, freedoms, and liberties to smoke if they wish to. And business owners having the right to cater to smokers if that is how they wish to operate their business.

I do have evidence that tobacco smoke has another side to it (that it is good for you, if you are careful) but thats a whole other discussion, maybe ill start a thread about that sometime. So because of that, people can choose if they want to smoke and more public places that have enclosed smoking sections could come back to be in place. and I believe that i will be a catalyst in bringing that to reality... somehow... so yeah a change in laws, a change in policy.

doing what you love is always great, but if you do it to get financial abundance so you can afford your material possessions, it will soon become just a job. and i think it will even become a very stressful one.

You are using preconceived ideas of how reality works in all of this. If you want financial abundance and freedom the so be it, let the universe bring that into your reality. Don't use what society has made you believe that you need a job for this or what have you. You never know what could happen and what opportunities present themselves to you..

Doing that is imposing a limit on yourself, and theres no freedom in limitations.. live up to your standards @lecroute

 

[paltatomate]

its not the material things that weigh people down. It's the attachment to material things that weighs them down!

the thing is that lost people tend to get attached. personally, i would prefer the custom-made rv (spacious and powerful, over comfortable) and every now and then a stay at a nice 5* hotel over owning a house.

live up to your standards @lecroute

you have no idea
