The Master Key to Understanding the Law of Attraction
When I was first introduced to the Law of Attraction, my understanding of how it actually worked, was limited to the theories I read in various high profile LOA publications.
It wasn't until I began studying other related material, such as quantum physics, neuroscience, body chemistry and the like, that I began to piece together a larger picture on what was really happening when I attempted to apply the various LOA techniques, such as, intention, visualization, gratitude etc.
Through this study, and through my practical experience in applying the Law of Attraction, I discovered a vital principle that's brings meaning to all the various methods and teachings around the LOA, I call this principle, Cooperative Reality.
Cooperative Reality basically states, that in order to apply the Law of Attraction, we require the cooperation of other individuals realities, allow me to explain.
In the book called "The Science of Getting Rich" by Wallace Wattles, he talks about the universe being made up of intelligent substance, and through deliberate intention and true belief we can alter the movement of the intelligent substance and bring into reality the image that we hold in our mind.
The Science of Getting Rich was written in 1910, and Wallace Wattles was way ahead of his time in this line of thinking.
Modern Quantum Physics tells us that sub-atomic particles are not solid, they exist as energy that is more akin to a thought or vibration.
Sub-atomic exist in a state called a wave function, that is, the particle is spread out in what scientists refer to as super position.
It is the same particle, appearing in as many as 3000 different or potential locations.
Incidentally this should be something that is shocking and mind blowing to us, but it would seem that it is a concept so difficult to grasp, that the strangeness of it doesn't seem to affect us that much.
There is a very good explanation of the experiment that scientists used to come up with this theory in the movie called "What the Bleep do We Know", I will not attempt to explain what they did, suffice to say the results are profound, and the theory is well grounded.
Now the word potential is a very important one, because once the particle is consciously observed, the wave function is collapsed, and it now appears in only one place, whereas before being observed, it was potentially in one of many locations.
This is very exciting to me, it tells me that what we call reality, that which is made up of the very tiny, does not exist in any predetermined state or location until such a time as it is consciously observed.
Once observed, the wave function is collapsed, and reality is set.
So, down to the practical, does the wave function or our reality always collapse to the same location? Or can the collapse of the wave function be set differently? The answer is yes, by you, the conscious observer.
You have been doing this, every moment of your life without ever realising it, setting reality for yourself at each moment.
Why then do we see the same reality every day? We see the same reality every day, because that is exactly what we expect to see, what we believe to be reality with every fibre of our being, is exactly the reality we will get.
Current reality though, is not only set by your beliefs, but also by the beliefs of those around you, so much of what you see is reality set by others.
However, there exists a reality which is not yet set, a reality that no one else knows about, that reality is your future, it exists only in your mind.
What do you think about your future? What do you believe your future holds in store for you? What are your dreams, your aspirations? These are vital questions, and if you ever wish to see the dawning of a new and vibrant existence, both spiritually and physically, you must consider these things very carefully.
All of the various methods and practices that are taught within the law of attraction, such as intention, visualization, meditation, gratitude and so on, are all designed to do one thing, create a new framework of belief within your mind.
Briefly, here is how it works.
Whenever you have a thought, you are firing a series of interconnected neural networks in your brain, this in turn causes a corresponding chemical release from a number of glands.
These chemicals are called neural peptides, they interact with the cells in our body, causing a feeling that corresponds to the thought.
Every time we repeat a thought process, we produce the same chemicals and generate the same emotional response.
The cells in our body over a period of time, becomes addicted to these familiar chemicals, and begins to send signals to the brain for more of the same.
This action causes the thought to fire and the cells receive the requested chemical fix.
This is why we see some people repeating the same thought cycles over and over with seemingly no regard to the outcome, and we have all done it.
It is this kind of repeated mental activity that creates the framework of our beliefs, the longer we persist in a certain train of thought, the more our bodies will request the same familiar chemicals, and the bonds between the neural pathways associated with that thought will be strengthened.
Study of the mind and brain is a subject of immense proportion, the detail of which is outside the scope of this article, but if you are interested in learning more, I can recommend a wonderful book entitled "Evolve your brain" by Dr Joe Dispenza.
So by applying the various methods within the teaching of the law of attraction, we are attempting to change the framework of our beliefs in order to see a new reality take shape by collapsing the quantum field in alignment with our new beliefs.
But the key is this, in order to collapse reality in line with our new beliefs, we need the co-operation of those around us, this is Cooperative Reality.
As we hold an image in our mind, and begin to form the neural structure a new belief, we create a vibration in the quantum field, and that vibration will attract other like vibrations that exist in the minds of other individuals, and this is the law of attraction in a nutshell.
You will begin to see people responding to you differently, you will notice them going out of their way to help you, a change in their attitude toward you.
The mind of every individual on the planet are in a constant state of response to the vibrations created by one another.
As you begin to strengthen your new beliefs, you increase the strength of your mental vibrations and you will begin to feel a general movement toward you, an attraction, whereas before it seemed like everything was moving away from you.
We do not attract things, we attract the thoughts and intention of other people, and our intentions along with those attracted intentions begin to collapse reality in alignment with our new beliefs.
There is much to say on this subject, and if you would like to know more, you can visit my website.
I will soon publish a book called "Law of Attraction - Cooperative Reality" that will explore these things in much greater detail.
I wish you all the very best on your journey.
