The Second Law is that you attract what you fear.
*************** Why is that?
Emotion is the power which attracts. That which you fear strongly, you will experience. An animal – which you consider a lower form of life (even though animals act with more integrity and greater consistency than humans) – knows immediately if you are afraid of it. Plants – which you consider an even lower form of life – respond to people who love them far better than to those who couldn’t care less.
None of this is by coincidence. There is no coincidence in the universe – only a grand design; an incredible “snowflake.”
Emotion is energy in motion. When you move energy, you create effect. If you move enough energy, you create matter. Matter is energy conglomerated. Moved around. Shoved together. If you manipulate energy long enough in a certain way, you get matter. Every Master understands this law. It is the alchemy of the universe. It is the secret of all life.
Thought is pure energy. Every thought you have, have ever had, and ever will have is creative. The energy of your thought never ever dies. Ever. It leaves your being and heads out into the universe, extending forever. A thought is forever.
All thoughts congeal; all thoughts meet other thoughts, criss-crossing in an incredible maze of energy, forming an ever-changing pattern of unspeakable beauty and unbelievable complexity.
Like energy attracts like energy – forming (to use simply words) “clumps” of energy of like kind. When enough similar “clumps” criss-cross each other – run into each other – they “stick to” each other (to use another simple term.) It takes an incomprehensibly huge amount of similar energy “sticking together,” thusly, to form matter. But matter will form out of pure energy. In fact, that is the only way it can form. Once energy becomes matter, it remains matter for a very long time – unless its construction is disrupted by an opposing, or dissimilar, form of energy. This dissimilar energy, acting upon matter, actually dismembers the matter, releasing the raw energy of which it was composed.
This is, in elementary terms, the theory behind your atomic bomb. Einstein came closer than any other human – before or since – to discovering, explaining and functionalizing the creative secret of the universe.
You should now better understand how people of like mind can work together to create a favored reality. The phrase, “Wherever two or more are gathered in My name” becomes much more meaningful.
Of course, when entire societies think a certain way, very often astonishing things happen – not all of them necessarily desirable. For instance, a society living in Fear, very often – actually, inevitably – produces in form that which it fears most.
Similarly, large communities or congregations often find miracle-producing power in combined thinking (or what some people call common prayer.)
And it must be made clear that even individuals – if their thought (prayer, hope, wish, dream, fear) is amazingly strong – can, in and of themselves, produce such results. Jesus did this regularly. He understood how to manipulate energy and matter, how to rearrange it, how to redistribute it, how to utterly control it. Many Masters have known this. Many know it now.
You can know it. Right now.
This is the knowledge of good and evil of which Adam and Eve partook. Until they understood this, there could be no life as you know it. Adam and Eve – the mythical names you have given to represent First Man and First Woman – were the Father and Mother of the human experience.
What has been described as the fall of Adam was actually his upliftment – the greatest single event in the history of humankind. For without it, the world of relativity would not exist. The act of Adam and Eve was not original sin, but, in truth, first blessing. You should thank them from the bottom of your hearts – for in being the first to make a “wrong” choice, Adam and Eve produced the possibility of make any choice at all.
In your mythology you have made Eve the “bad” one here – the temptress who ate of the fruit, the knowledge of good and evil – and coyly invited Adam to join her. This mythological set-up has allowed you to make woman man’s “downfall” ever since, resulting in all manner of warped realities – not to mention distorted sexual views and confusions. (How can you feel so good about something so bad?)
What you most fear is what will most plague you. Fear will draw it to you like a magnet. All your holy scriptures – of every religious persuasion and tradition which you have created – contain the clear admonition: fear not. Do you think this is by accident?
The Laws are very simple.
1. Thought is creative.
2. Fear attracts like energy.
3. Love is all there is.
[Oops, you got me on that third one. How can love be all there is if fear attracts like energy?]
Love is the ultimate reality. It is the only. The All. The feeling of love is your experience of God. In highest Truth, love is all there is, all there was, and all there ever will be. When you move into the absolute, you move into love.
The realm of the relative was created in order that I might experience My Self. This has already been explained to you. This does not make the realm of the relative real. It is a created reality you and I have devised and continue to devise – in order that we may know ourselves experientially.
