The Law of Abundance
How can you lack anything, when the Law of Abundance states that nothing is lacking?
There are a few universal laws which will help you understand and work with the Law of Abundance. They are five:
1 - The Law of Conservation of Mass ("Nothing is lost in the universe")
2 - The Law of Affinity ("You are responsible for your present situation")
3 - The Law of Similarity ("As within, so without")
4 - The Law of Action ("Just do it")
5 - The Law of Balance ("Abundance is not Excess")
1 - The Law of Conservation of Mass ("Nothing is lost in the universe")
"Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed"
- Antoine Lavoisier
Lavoisier is considered the father of modern Chemistry and he stated the first version of the law of conservation of mass. This might bring back some memories of your school days. But, back then, you probably didn't realize or even bother to think about the consequences of his statement.
The amount of matter in the universe doesn't change. Nothing is added or subtracted. Everything is changing in a continuous flow.
If that is so, then the universe already has and provides all that is necessary for its own well being. That said, how could small tiny creatures like us, which are as grains of sand on the cosmic beach, be lacking anything whatsoever? The Law of Abundance makes this impossible.
Nothing is lacking. Abundance is the natural state of things. What is scarce, in reality, is our own vision,our understanding of things and our consciousness.
So you see, our own deficiencies are the cause of this illusory scarcity since, in fact, the planet doesn't lack resources nor does the universe lack harmony, beauty and kindness.
The idea that natural resources are scarce is a great illusion. What is truly scarce is Intelligence and Humanitarianism. Take world hunger for instance. Even in countries which produce food in excess, millions of people are starving. Scarcity is not the issue.
How much unnecessary food don't you consume? Come on, honestly, how much money and resources are wasted on producing the trashiest forms of food which, instead of feeding, end up poisoning all of us? Meanwhile, the real hunger of others is being neglected.
The Law of Abundance is real. But the way humanity makes use of these resources is completely absurd. And this is how misery and scarcity can be created in a world of abundance.
2 - The Law of Affinity
You are responsible for your present situation.
You are the creator of your own destiny.
Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov on the law of affinity:
"You will never achieve great transformations in your psychic life as long as you have not understood the magical secret of the law of affinity.
Each sentiment you experience has a particular nature and, by virtue of the law of affinity, it will stimulate forces in space of the same nature, which will make their way to you. If your sentiment is negative, you will attract negative influences; if it is positive, you will attract blessings.
You can thus draw everything you desire from the great reservoirs of the universe, but only if you emanate feelings and project thoughts that are of the same nature as those you wish to attract. These thoughts and feelings determine absolutely the quality of the elements and forces which will be awakened somewhere far off in space, and sooner or later they will arrive at your door.
The law of affinity is the greatest key to spiritual achievement."
The above mentioned law is an essential element for understanding the Law of Abundance. Have you ever considered how much your disposition influences the reactions of the environment around you? Take this to a more practical, even trivial context.
Say you go out for a walk in a park. If you smile and say "good morning" to the passersby, it's very likely that you'll receive a smile and a "good morning" in return. But who will smile at you when you're wearing a frown and looking like you just got shaken out of bed by force? Is anyone going to feel like chatting with you?
Try this as an exercise: make a point of smiling to everyone. I mean it, don't worry about looking daft, you're learning something. I've tried it myself and guess what, it works. Of course there is always that unhappy human being who is completely overwhelmed by his/her bad mood, but in most cases you'll see positive results
So don't forget: your disposition towards life changes everything. This is key for the manifestation of the Law of Abundance.
How many interesting people don't meet each other for lacking a friendly and open countenance? How many goals weren't achieved because people just didn't believe enough in themselves? How many loving relationships never even started for the same reasons?
Do you want to see smiles in your life? Then smile at life first.
3 - The Law of Similarity
"As above, so below" (or "As within, so without")
- The Emerald Tablet
This is a geometrical law that you might have seen worked out in triangles. In particular, similar triangles are triangles that have the same shape and are up to scale of one another.
At this point you are probably wondering what all this has to do with the Law of Abundance.
But you see, this same principle is applied to the microcosm and the macrocosm. One is the same as the other, but in a different scale. "The universe is the same as man, man is the same as the cell, the cell is the same as the atom and the atom, in turn, is the same as the universe."
Have you noticed the striking similarity between the atom and a planetary system? Amazing isn't it?
"The kingdom of God is within you"- Luke 17:21
This principle is intimately related to the previously mentioned Law of Affinity. The idea is that by changing your microcosm, that is, your inner disposition (feelings, thoughts, etc), you'll be changing the macrocosm.
So first, you must generate an inner feeling of abundance, prosperity, satisfaction and generosity. It's much like the smile and the "good morning". Acts coming from a particular inner disposition will have similar consequences in the external environment.
"Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without." - Buddha.
How do you create this inner feeling of abundance?
Recognize the natural state of abundance and prosperity of life. Now, I know you'll find misery and scarcity around if you look for it. You'll also find the unpleasant environment of a trash can in a beautiful park if you stick your head in it, won't you? But that doesn't mean the park is lacking in beauty, peace or cleanliness. It means you're looking in the wrong place.
The Law of Abundance manifests itself in every aspect of life. The problem is that you fail to recognize it at times.
Give, for it is giving that you'll receive. If you convince yourself that you lack, then you'll hardly find the motivation to give. And without giving, there is no receiving. Generosity comes from within, and abundance comes from generosity.
Kill the illusion of scarcity. Here is a good example: saying "I don't have time for anything" simply means you are terrible at time management. All you have to do is to admit it and improve.
4 - The Law of Action
"Just Do It"
The Law of Abundance won't manifest itself in your life if you don't act. Acting is necessary for you to be in harmony with the whole system.
Everything in the universe is moving, changing, growing and working. Don't wait for things to change, take the initiative and do it yourself. Take an active part in your life!
Waiting until you have a certain amount of money before you can be generous; waiting for such and such job before making plans; waiting for a perfect partner before you can feel complete; this just doesn't work. It's important to be patient, but this doesn't mean not acting.
Food is abundant, but all animals must go out hunting for it. If you sit at home all day, you won't get a business going for you the next, will you?
Things will change when you change.
5 - The Law of Balance
"Abundance is not Excess"
There is a constant interplay of opposite and complementary forces everywhere and in everything. High and low, hot and cold, in and out. It never ceases and it always tends to a state of balance.
Chinese Medicine works with this universal principle to restore and maintain the balance of Yin and Yang in the body. The deficiency or excess of any of these elements will throw the system into disorder and trigger a reaction for the reestablishment of harmony.
The universe and the body work by the same laws (remember the Law of Similarity? As within, so without). So the Law of Abundance will respect the Law of Universal Balance. Can you already see the consequences of this?
This means that using the Law of Abundance to feed a greedy desire for an unnecessary amount of money, for instance, is just unrealistic. Everything must have a just purpose and a just measure.
Don't get me wrong here. It is absolutely possible to increase your monthly income. But bear in mind that money is "currency", its nature is much like energy. And energy is always flowing and balancing itself out.
A warm cup of tea will only maintain its surplus of heat for so long before its temperature balances out with the room. This is worth meditating upon.
Final thoughts:
Working with the Law of Abundance demands the ability to recognize the good things in your life, to be grateful, to cultivate positive inner feelings, to kill the illusion of scarcity, to act and to balance.
You will reap what you sow. It may be a job offer, a better health condition, meeting new people, getting into a new loving relationship or anything else you desire.
Be mindful, be peaceful and be awesome.
