The main reason religions don’t like the Law of Attraction

I am not religious, but I am spiritual. What this means is that I believe in a higher power, but don’t necessarily think that I have to follow certain rituals found in organized religions in order to connect with it. Religions would like us to believe that we are subject to a vindictive, jealous and easily angered God that we must constantly please by staying on the “straight and narrow.” Otherwise, if we stray (SIN!!!) then God won’t love us and will banish us to eternal damnation.

Why must God have the same attributes as humans? That is preposterous. What this makes God is just as unrational, selfish and immature as we are. And that just doesn’t do it for me.

Therefore, when we learn from the recent masters who teach the Law of Attraction, we finally understand that the power has been in OUR hands, not that of a white-bearded God that sits up above and casts his glances upon us all, blessing some and condemning others. Organized religion loses its power on us, and those in charge can no longer control their flock.

But what needs to be noted here is that the Law of Attraction works BECAUSE of God, not WITHOUT him. For we are all one–individual waves of the same ocean, and we are all GOD. Rather than being an old man with a white beard, he is YOU, and he is ME, and he is that annoying high-pitched scream of the baby in front of you in the grocery line. He is the guy who cut you off in traffic this morning, and the hair-flipping girl who would rather flirt with her co-worker than sell you a ticket at the movie theater. God is the leaf you kicked on the way to your car, and the wilted flower you plucked off of the bush in your front yard. He is not UP there. He is HERE.

So the next time your religious leader condemns the Law of Attraction as blasphemy, open your mind just a tad and consider that he may be threatened by something unknown to him (of course if he looks in the Bible hard enough, he will find Jesus’ reference to it in just about everything he says!). Love him for the fact that he is God, challenging you to open your mind and show compassion. We are all at a different level. But we are all in the same cycle of life.

If you haven’t read the Conversations with God books, I suggest you try one and see if it fits your beliefs, or at least gives you another perspective on why we’re here.

    That’s exactly what everyone needs to know !!

    They are all just paths leading to the same ocean/goal.

    Some paths are longer than the others, some have different levels of play while others take you there asap.

    Religions are just a way of life. People like to make themselves believe in certain issues and feel “secure” in their lives. It becomes like this game whereby everyone wants to compete and rush to do their rituals and undertake religious beliefs whereby one doesn’t even understand what he/she is doing or why the ritual is placed there.

    I do it because my parents did it, I do it because everyone does it are not good answers.

    Then these same people watch others who don’t undertake these rituals and something triggers their minds telling them that they are better people than the rest. This shows their attitude towards others and then telling us that their sole religion is the only way is purely selfish behaviour.

    In conclusion, we should be open hearted and listen to everyone. Listen to everyone and let them put their views on the table. THEN, pick what you want and carry on. There is no reason to compete, confuse and argue because everyone could be playing a different level of the game we call life and so one day or the other it will come to sync.

    These are very difficult lessons to learn though because we live in a Capitalist society whereby everyone wants to be ahead of the other. Telling people that we are all on the same journey will hurt many…

    Hello KD

    I did watch the DVD “The Secret” some time back…. Interesting

    I personally feel that our Thoughts are very important for the fact that they can help us change the environment we are in. But then how does destiny/fate and manifestation relate? OR…. is the manifestation also part of destiny or some planned action?

    I have been practicing Thoughts but lets see hopefully down the line I will be able to put more light on to it….

    Hello mys0ul,

    Within the context of the Law of Attraction, what you manifest IS your destiny/fate. Those who do not realize that what they think manifests into their lives will call it destiny or fate, whereas those who are self-aware will KNOW that their “future” is simply where their thoughts have led them. It’s all about taking responsibility for our actions–which is directed inward. Those who cast the responsibility with “fate” are those who believe they must react to external stimuli. Keep practicing your thought process, and know that concentrated intention will get you where you want to go.

    H2X,

    Agreed, and perfectly put! If we could teach our children that, then the world would begin its subtle shift towards growth rather than demolition. Thanks for the post!
