The law of attraction says that what
you believe will manifest, will in fact manifest. So you can conjure
up pretty much anything if you put your mind to it right? It's not
that easy, but you can make a difference in your life. Have you or
someone you know ever said, 'I really wanted that and I got it!' or
'I thought I would win!'? It's possible they believed they would get
it, so they got it. The thing is, wanting something is not enough.
You have to believe.
Wanting something and believing
you will get it are two different things. It's a lot trickier to
believe than to want. You may want a promotion at work. The idea is
to believe you will get it, imagine yourself getting the promotion
and starting your new role. Literally give yourself the new job. Then
potentially you will get it.
So how does the law of attraction work?
Okay, we are all made of energy. Everything you see around you is made
of energy. We are made of atoms, which are comprised of protons,
electrons and neutrons. Electrons, for example, when passed through
two slits behave like particles if being observed, but like a waves
if they are not being observed. Essentially we are made up of tiny
subatomic particles charged with energy, whizzing around our very
selves. Plus, these particles potentially behave in strange ways when
a conscious mind is involved. There are other strange ways that the
subatomic world behaves, such as particles being in two places at
once, and his information can be found here.
So at the quantum level the world is
very different and bizarre, but scale up and we have mass, and go
about our daily lives ignoring the fact we are comprised of pure
energy. It's a little like being a computer generated avatar in a
game console. Or maybe like we're created by computer code – or
universal energy code perhaps.
It's believed that our dense physical
third density reality is too hard to manipulate via thought. When we
die and ascend to the etheric plane, there in our spirit body we can
manifest reality via thought and shape our world at will. Same is
true for those UFO abductees who report a pleasant encounter filled
with love and hope, but still underwent physical examination. Some
understand this to be the result of the human abductee being taken
into a different dimension, where thoughts can create reality. The
abductee expected to receive a physical examination therefore it
manifested.
Given that part of your spirit coexists
in higher densities (dimensions), you can potentially believe something into existence on the higher plane, after which it will drop in frequency
until it materializes on this earthly plane. For example you can
believe that you will be able to afford an amazing new car, then
through one of your higher selves, or through the power of your own
thought, cause this to manifest in the higher vibrational reality.
Over time it could come into being here on the earthly plane once the
frequency of the thought-form drops.

There's the rational view that
believing you want something enough, will cause you to take action to
achieve it or get it. However, everybody can think of someone or an
example of a time when someone believed in something so much that it
did occur. For example, it's true that going to a singles night will
increase your chances of meeting your soul mate, but only the law of
attraction is going to send him or her to the same chance meeting
place. Again, you can take action to get that dream job by applying
and going to the interview, but only the law of attraction brought
the dream job your way in the first place soon after you believed it
would appear.
Thoughts are energy, just the same as
light is energy. Thoughts are not nothingness, otherwise how could
they exist? Whether physically manifesting as electrical impulses in
your brain or as part of the electromagnetic energy that each person
has surrounding their body, thoughts exist as energy. Given that we
and everything around us is comprised of energy, we can attempt to
manipulate events or things into manifesting through the law of
attraction.
An advanced meditator or spiritually enlightened person with a great deal of inner peace may be able to use the law of attraction more easily and to greater effect. However a person of this type, knowing that material things and attachments are quite irrelevant - may not want to.
