The Law of Attraction

Since the movie The Secret came out in 2006, there has been a renewed interest in talking about the law of attraction.
The law of attraction is not new.


In the Bible it says:  * Matthew 13:22-23 "And the one on whom seed was sown among the thorns, this is the man who hears the word, and the worry of the world and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. 23“And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the word and understands it; who indeed bears fruit and brings forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty.”

* Mark 11:24 "What things soever you desire, When ye pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them".

Buddha’s famous teaching from the Dhammapada:

“Experiences are preceded by mind, led by mind, and produced by mind. If one speaks or acts with an impure mind, suffering follows even as the cart-wheel follows the hoof of the ox. … If one speaks or acts with a pure mind, happiness follows like a shadow that never departs.” 

From the Kabbalah -Jewish Mystical Thought

"When man below is of a "radiant countenance" and filled with joy and gladness, he then draws down upon himself the same qualities from Above." Zohar (II, p. 184b)

"Joy breaks through barriers." The Rebbe

"Joy breaks through all the boundaries of golus (exile). "The Rebbe

"Tracht gut, vet zein gut! (think good and it will be good)" the Tzemach Tzedek, third Rebbe of Chabad 

The oldest ( living major)  religion of them all, Hinduism has this to say:
"You are what your deep, driving desire is. As your desire is, so is your will. As your will is, so is your deed. As your deed is, so is your destiny."
– Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 


One of my favorite authors, Dr. Deepak Chopra wrote in his book, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, “Success is a journey, and it includes much more than material wealth which is only one component that makes this journey enjoyable”.

What is success?
I agree that it is much more than material wealth. It is primarily, good health, peace of mind, energy, fulfilling relationships, a feeling of belonging, emotional stability, freedom to express oneself and the opportunity to be heard, and most of all allowing the Divine plan and guidance to unfold and flourish within and be shared with others.


What happens when we feel that negative emotions of doubt, fear, anxiety, helplessness,...interfere with our faith, our ability to feel the joy, the hope, the desire that are so important to attract positive experiences in our life?


What if we want so much to feel all this positivity , yet feel like in a hole of negativity?
This is where The Emotion Code can help: It helps to release the negative emotions that hold us back and make it so hard for us to believe or even dream of a better present or future.


When we have attracted a certain unwanted event already, we can also ask: "What trapped emotion has caused me to attract this particular event (or person)?"
We were talking about this very topic on facebook this morning and one of my facebook friends who uses the Emotion Code wrote on my wall :". I released two trapped emotions holding an event in my mind asking Have I done something to attract this event to me? Yes! Do I have a trapped emotion I can release to stop attracting this event. Uh-huh!~Yes :)"

So there we have it. If life is not attracting what you truly desire, there is a tool to remove from the energy field all that is not a favorable point of attraction.  Since the law of attraction works, as it has since the beginning of times, it might as well work in our benefit.
Do I hear an "Amen" ?
