The Law of Abundance

This universe that we live in is a place of abundance. Look around you and you will see abundance everywhere. I planted a couple little cherry trees last year, this year they are bent over with cherries. The Grass in my yard grows faster than I can keep up with it. It grows thick in places I don't want it and little fruit trees are coming up all over the lawn. We too are abundant creatures we have been created with a multitude of ideas and talents to carry them out. There is a spiritual law that we must give to receive. It is in giving that things come back to us. So whatever you would increase in your life first give away.

Yet when many people try to manifest prosperity, they don't achieve their goals. What happens?
Now we can't give away what we do not have. So say you want to give love you must first love yourself. This sounds like a paradox it is not. We must be the very thing we would give so to give love we must be loved and loving. This law works in reverse for us too. Say you are fearful that is just what you will give away and what you will receive back from the universe. So we want to monitor our thoughts and see what we are sending out.

If we are going to manifest true prosperity, we must first bring our consciousness into attunement with the Higher Power. When we are aligned with our Higher Power we are at peace knowing that all our needs will be taken care of in Divine Order. When we reach this point we then are at a place to ask for guidance in the silence. It then becomes easier to brings specific goals into manifestation. It is not uncommon for us to change our minds several times as we learn to listen to our Higher Power and begin to ask for our highest good and find it is not what we started out desiring.

We create our own reality. We attract those things in our life (money, relationships, employment) that we focus on. I wish I could tell you that it is as simple as stating an affirmation, but no affirmation is going to work if your mind/thought is negating the positive.

When we focus on "the fear of scarcity" then we create that experience for ourselves. When we focus on "I hate my job" then we will never notice the aspects of our employment that might be satisfying. Basically, just wanting something isn't going to bring that to us when we continue to obsess on the not having of that something. We negate the very thing we are trying to manifest.

Agree with the Law and accept the truth that you have been given everything.When we do this, our consciousness becomes the Law of Abundance. We take on the energy, power, and force of the Higher Power and become an open channel for our desires to manifest through us. What takes place when our minds agree with the law of abundance is an acceptance Which is similar to a light being turned on in consciousness, and ideas begin to fill our minds. These ideas are in the form of helpful solutions, actions to take to bring manifestation of our desires. Then once the fear has been quieted through purposeful activity, the Higher Power takes the next step and begins to connect you, with the people, places, situations, and conditions to bring more of the already-present abundance into your life. From there you continue your upward climb until the gifts of the Law are fully recognized. Gratefulness speeds up this process.

The Hidden Law

When you were at school your teachers, unknowingly, did you a disservice by only revealing half the truth about the world. The consequences of imperfect knowledge are truly devastating, as you will learn.

Welcome to a different type of lesson. An orthodox school curriculum assumes that the world is explainable. To be understandable, the world has to be comprised of chains of causes and effects. You know the kind of thing: this causes that, that causes the other, the other causes something else and something else causes the final outcome. If we have infinitely accurate information about each stage in the chain we can predict an outcome and this outcome is really a jumping off point for further stages in the chain. Tracing chains of causes and effects increases our sense of security and makes the world appear predictable and understandable.

Foreseeable chains of causes and effects are not the only way things happen in this world. There are also LIVING TRENDS. Living trends differ from chains of causes and effects in that they are inherently surprising that is to say, they have outcomes that can only be experienced as surprises. It is very difficult to become an expert on such will-o-the-wisp phenomena. Therefore, the knowledge of living trends is not on the school curriculum. In fact there tends to be no interest in them or even an emotional denial that they exist at all. But they do exist and we are all in the grip of them.

So what is a living trend? It is a pattern of development that spontaneously emerges, apparently without a cause, from the natural world. There is a rapid inflationary phase, a plateau phase of unpredictable length and a sudden surprising reversal of the trend. Participating in a living trend gives a feeling of being in a comfortable routine leading to a secure outcome. However, all the time you are heading for an unpleasant surprise. Lets have an example. Consider investors in the stock market. Suddenly, from out of nowhere, confidence appears. This is reflected in rising prices. There is a rapid inflationary phase wherein stock prices rise to unrealistic levels. Then the acceleration of confidence tails off and remains at a given high level, as the plateau phase is entered. An unpredictable moment arrives when all confidence drains away, prices plunge and there is a big shakeout of the market.

The thing that makes people available to living trends is IMPERFECT KNOWLEDGE. All of the investors have only a partial understanding of the economic realities behind the share prices. Their individual notions of what is true increase the sum total of chaos and disorganization within the overall scenario and it is out of the principle of chaos that living trends make their impromptu emergence. We are told that the Truth will set us free. What is meant is that the Truth will set us free from participation in living trends. This is why successful market speculators and entrepreneurs often come from the ranks of those who performed rather badly at school. They know they dont know anything and that insight makes them more likely to intuit the truth of beguiling living trends in the market.

Another classic example of a living trend is one that is described in the New Testament Gospels and which gripped the life of Jesus. He, unlike the ordinary person, appeared to be fully aware of the 'power' in which he was caught up and did nothing to save himself from the negative surprise to come.

To possess a mind programmed with half the truth makes you available to living trends without your being aware of it. Your days at school furnished you with imperfect knowledge of how the world of everyday life functions and you naturally became a sitting duck for passing living trends. These living trends are powers, forces or vortexes of disembodied intent. Science knows nothing of them and yet they most definitely operate a blind conspiracy against the whole human race, causing individuals and nations to fall from grace.

Living trends are just waiting for us to stray across inner thresholds within ourselves. A threshold is crossed when we stray: from preference into desire; from love into lust; from caution into fear; from courage into recklessness; from gentleness into weakness; from freedom into anarchy; from thrift into greed; from respect into servility; from ambition into ruthlessness; from friendship into infatuation; from confidence into ego mania etc. We dont choose to cross these invisible lines. Instead, we have diminished responsibility because we do not understand the threat posed by living trends. There are limits to all development and as soon as we cross a given threshold we expose ourselves to being drafted by a living trend into a madcap excursion whose destination is a negative surprise. Individuals, nations and species have been driven to extinction because they did not understand this one thing.

There is however a single hope and that is the putting into practice of an unwritten law that hides behind the visible appearance of the world. That law says 'Tap the world lightly. It is a hidden law that I personally would like to write across the sky in great big letters: DO NOT GO BEYOND WHAT IS JUST ENOUGH. Here endeth the lesson.

Are There Laws For Running A Homebased Business? October 2001
By Bob Brolhorst

The answer is no, but there are some things that you need to know before
you get started.

1) Check with the city in which you will be starting your business. If your
business will be home-based, you may not need a license, but only a permit
or a home occupation permit. In some cities, you don't even need a permit.

2) Then check with your county, as the county requirements generally over rule
that of the city.

3) Finally check with your state. If you hire anyone or give yourself a paycheck,
you need a Federal Employer ID number (FEIN).

4) Always start with the zoning department. If you live in a residential area,
a home-based business may not even be allowed, or only certain types of
home-based businesses may be allowed.

5) Ask the experts by making a few phone calls. Don't rely on answers from
others in your area who have businesses. Ignorance of the law doesn't hold up
in court. And the fines can be pretty large.

6) Another piece of advice, even if your city doesn't require a permit or license,
your insurance company may require registration of some sort before issuing a
liability policy for you. Liablility insurance is something you can not be without.

7) Obtain the services of a good attorney. They will be able to advise you on
such issuses as whether to incorporate or not, or whether being a sole propriotor
would be better. Also you may need to have legal contracts drawn up so keep a
lawyer on retainer, it will be money well spent.

8) Trademarks for your business may also be necessary, but this is something
that your attorney can help you with.
