PART 3
Attractiveness suggests loveliness, something that is a beauty in the eye of the beholder.
As discussed in Part 2, the initial attraction in an unbalanced situation soon turns to a grim reality, a not-so attractive scenario where the ugly truth shows itself. That is only one aspect of the Law of Attraction, but one that serves a very important purpose in bringing one’s conscious awareness to some karmic problem.
Karma is a word heard more and more these days as the spiritual human comes to understand the Law of Creation. Whatever one sows, one will reap later, sometimes in a subsequent life where the seed that was sown has been forgotten. Karma is not all bad, although a lot of it is because for some reason we seem to have accumulated a lot of bad fruits. The sins of the father will be visited on the sons, suggests that it is not an immediate thing. The fruit of the seed sown takes time, maybe more than one life-time, to show itself.
Stevenson had no idea his early coal-driven steam engine would lead to wars, death and destruction in the Middle East. The Seneca Indians had no idea that their oily puddle was the tip of a massive oil-berg that would eventually lead to a poison called plastic.
Nevertheless, the Law of Attraction brings us all rewards too, because many seeds that are sown give the sweet fruits of evolution, creativity, enlightenment, Love and compassion, beauty and knowledge.
There may be a time when an act of kindness, generosity of spirit, compassion, self-sacrifice, voluntary dedication, friendship, loyalty, perseverance, bravery, craftsmanship, artistic accomplishment, purity, honesty and more, sows a seed.
Miracles, Divine intervention, Angelic rescues, windfalls, good luck and even synchronicity [serendipity], are the fruits of such seeds. When something really good just drops on your proverbial plate, rest assured you have deserved it. And it may or may not have anything to do with wealth or success, for a reason.
There is a part of you that knows what is good for you, what you most need and what would help you most. And that part is not the part that would like to win the lottery, retire to a place in the sun and live happily ever after with the partner of your dreams, in a huge mortgage-free house with matching pink Ferrari and Porsche parked outside.
The part of you that knows best may know that winning the lottery is what’s good for you – to learn about wealth, financial management, generosity, begging letters, and losing it all again.
The part of you that knows best may know that what you need is a holiday, a break from routine – to get a new perspective on your empty life.
The part of you that knows best may know that the partner best suited to your evolution happens to be a walking god or goddess who steals your fortune, abuses you and takes away your freedom – to help you wake up, deal with that karma and get back on track.
If your Higher Self and your lower self are in agreement, what you think you want may arrive.
If they are not, no amount of wishing, hoping, focusing, making wish-boards, filling out questionnaires on design-a-man/woman/life will ever bring it about.
Good things come because you have aligned yourself with your Highest Aspect. The good things that come may not be material. They may be a sense of contentment and peace, unconditional love from, and for, those around you, experience of harmony and balance. You may find abundance in the form of knowing you have everything you need, spiritual enlightenment, a joy in your work, Grace and fearlessness, love. This is regardless of what you have, have not, are, are not, do or don’t do.
“Remarkable are the Blessings that come from not dreading, not desiring, not hoping, not regretting, not waiting, not rushing, not wanting, not resisting, not being afraid.”
Sri Rameesh Purah
It could be that the Law of Attraction is only one part of the Law of Creation. It pushes us away from that which does not create and pulls us towards that which does.

Great, this is absolutely what I was searching for. Thanks!
Would appreciate it if you just acknowledge me as original author and this blog as source, if you use it – Thanks
Yes, thankyou Tom. A natural Law has to hold water under any condition, while underpinning a diversity of expression. Wiki adds:-
Natural law, an ethical theory that posits the existence of a law whose content is set by nature and that therefore has validity everywhere
Principle, an abstract object sometimes known as a law
Laws of science, established principles thought to be universal and invariable
Scientific law, or physical law, a scientific generalization based on empirical observations of physical behavior
Religious law, the ordering principle of reality; knowledge as revealed by God defining and governing all human affairs
Lore, all the facts and traditions about a particular subject that have been accumulated over time through education or experience.
Folklore, acquired knowledge or traditional beliefs
As usual, your erudite thoughts and left field take are so refreshing.
My thoughts on it are though, does it have to be a “Law” – perhaps “Phenomenon” is a more accurate word. The word law implies it must be adhered to and it’s cast in Stone. Even the so-called Law of Gravity breaks down in the sub-atomic realm and beyond the event horizon. It is also changing over time and modulated by consciousness.
Likewise the “Law of Attraction” only holds if we will it to.
PS in many cases it is here, one has it all, already. Even the difficult bits are a blessing. See ‘Grace’ on this blog.
The visible stream flows down the mountain but the forces that take it to the top are unseen. Abundance, success, the Higher Life is indeed there for everyone to achieve but it cannot be a presumption that to simply want it, wish for it or even ask for it is the way to get it. I look forward to the film/book, thanks John.
The Compass Movie and Book are Coming in February 2009.
Life is meant to be lived in abundance. We all want to experience life at the highest levels. Over the years, we have been taught the importance of vision and clear thought. However, those who have truly attained success in all aspects of life know there is more that needs to be done to reach the top, and live a life of fulfillment and gratitude. Without knowing the optimal path, life tends to meander like a stream. A stream will take you down the mountain, but it will never carry you to the top.
Never before in history has there been a film that has told the story of the journey through life coupled with the world’s leading authorities on personal success. As an added bonus, the viewer will be treated to four dynamic individuals who will inspire, motivate and make you think at a deep level when you learn of their incredible life stories.
The Compass will move you!
