The New Age movement brought focus to the Law of Attraction, drawing the ire of some who might see such activity as the devil’s work. The Law of Attraction basically says energy goes where energy flows. This concept on manifestation dictates that we attract that which has our focus, whether positive or negative, as a predetermined order of the Universe.
Manifesting means to make something happen, and the idea of such personal power is inspired by various philosophical traditions. Some evangelicals have stitched together scriptures to fit their claim that to engage in manifestation is to place more faith in your own thoughts instead of seeking God’s will. Apparently, there are only two options for this type of limiting belief: You can either ask God or ask the enemy, which seems to eliminate the obvious. If God created everything and God is within, how could manifesting be from any other source? It has been pointed out that Jesus was teaching the Law of Attraction when he said, “Anything that you ask in prayer, believe that it will be given to you.”
What I sometimes observe is that when bad things happen, people who are really into the Law of Attraction take ownership. This is sometimes at the expense of becoming a victim. I decided to look up synonyms for manifesting, and the one that struck me was ‘to let it all hang out’. (tee hee) I didn’t know Thesaurus was a source of comedy! Well, it’s time to let it all hang out in a whisper from spirit on manifesting:
The universe is composed of vibrations that form patterns moving to a Cosmic rhythm. Manifestations are influenced when one matches their vibrations to align with a focused goal or intention, whether consciously or subconsciously. Since each soul has an aim or a goal, expression can emerge from the subconscious to manifest in ways that are unexpected or unintentional.
Magnetic domains, such as that of the Earth, operate with energy responding to a positive with a negative and vice versa. Any vibration, whether regarded as positive or negative, can manifest a response. Lessons of love are the playground for the soul. Any experience that leads to greater strength and development can be a powerful manifestation, yet without a direct connection to a single source of attraction.
Symbiotic relationships between energy and soul patterns exist, but are not necessarily manipulated by a thought process. Stable positive vibrations are formed by the spirit, not by mere thoughts alone. Manifestation is a full-body experience that combines elements of vision, faith, focus, and devotion to creating an intended result. Some can manifest with adventure and some by accident, for destiny and free will do not hold a predictable or stable vibration.
What you manifest in life is not solely dictated by your vibrations. Timing is also a factor. Where you are at a certain time and place can be a determining factor with any outcome. If you take full responsibility for manifesting an experience that brings pain and suffering, you will likely fall victim to the concept of the Law of Attraction. Knowing that life is greater than the Self ushers in the awareness needed to maintain independence in the face of success or failure. Love every moment of life, regardless of the whether perceived as positive or negative.
Bring joy, ease suffering and create beauty, then dance like you mean it!
Blessings, Russell
