The Secret, The Law of Attraction and Spirituality

According to the Law of Attraction, what you focus on is what you create. For example, if you decide to write a book and see it as a successful venture, you will eventually make it happen. The more attention you give the project, the more you will attract the people and circumstances to make your dream come true.

I believe this and I know it works... when I use it! Since 1992 I have used the law successfully... when I remember it and use it. However, what I have found is that when my life is moving along at a magical pace, my dreams are manifesting freely and easily, I get lazy and lapse into unhealthy patterns. Well, that WAS my pattern.

I'm so grateful for the movie and the reminder to keep my focus on the positive goals I have for myself and my work. Ancient Pact, Volume 1 is the culmination of many hours of intention and work. When it won 2006 Best Book Award for New Age fiction in November 2006 I was happy but failed to consciously make the connection that I have intended for Ancient Pact to win many awards and help many people.

One of the things I like most is that the teachers of The Secret remind people to use the power consciously and to remember to be of service to others. When some of them appeared on Oprah in February, that is one of the key messages they all conveyed. There is more than enough resources for EVERYONE. That is such a fundamental concept of spirituality.

People who lack resources and live in fear are easy to dominate and control.

Once humanity grasps that each of us creates our reality, anyone who leads with fear and domination will lose their power. Fear will no longer be a weapon. Heaven and Hell as separate places where eternal judgment is passed are constructs of fear. God as a separate being who creates and destroys is a way to keep believers ignorant of their Spirit nature.

People who fear for the condition of their eternal soul are easy to dominate and control.

While I don't know if the creators of The Secret believe the same things about God, Ancient Pact's first lesson is All is One. We aren't bodies who have a soul. We are Spiritual Beings - Souls- who have bodies for a while. I believe everything that exists is an expression of a shared energy that is this physical Universe.

I see it as an ocean of energy that is sometimes visible, sometime invisible. Sometimes creatures rise out of the ocean like a whale breaching. The whale experiences a short time in a different reality then returns to the ocean. A wave may form, roll against the beach, cease to be a wave and then return to the ocean. Everything in the Universe arises and eventually returns to the ocean of energy. Everything is a part of the Consciousness.

There is no separate God, Goddess or Creator. Everything and everyone is Creator, All, Universe. Many of us have just forgotten what we are.

So often after tragedies people say, “Thank God we weren’t killed.” That is only half of the equation. Who created the tragedy? Who created the rescue? It must be the same creator. How often do you hear those same people say, “Thank God for the car accident.”? Salvation and consciousness happens when the connection is made. Assign responsibility and gratitude to the same creator.

It is time to WAKE UP.
