The Law of Attraction
    #23535277 - 08/12/16 03:53 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Remember the next time you are raped, robbed, betrayed or get ill - that this is what your thoughts were focusing on - and you totally deserve it!

So whenever I masturbate, the universe wanted to fuck me?

I am that, which is.

And referring back to my "Desire" thread questions, where do these sort of thoughts/desires arise from?

You've totally missed the point.  In my experience, this concept is is very true.

When I'm depressed, anxious, angry, and addicted, people don't want to be around me.

When I'm at peace, exuding caring and compassion, people are lined up to be with me.

At an event today, I had a half dozen women wanting to spend time with me.

10 years ago, depressed and addicted, no woman would give me the time of day.

I had a buddy who was built like a god: 6' 5", 275 lbs and handsome. Women swooned over him whether he was angry or sad or whatever. Same with the hot pissy, female models I knew.

I was in no special mind-state when I attracted the 22 year younger Haley.

The LOA is ALWAYS applied ad hoc and negative results such as rape and robbery somehow don't apply for some strange reason even though such events fall under the basic supposition as outlined by claimants.

Re: RJT  I think you have confused the "law of attraction" with having a positive vibe.

I think "the law of attraction", refers to a specific book, movie, and idea, that if you, say for example: want a house and think thoughts of having a house, you will get a house. I knew somebody that thought that was what it meant. I was never interested enough to pursue it, probably for similar reasons explained in the video.

Thus it goes way beyond the idea that having positive expectations, maybe a sort of self full filling prophecy, to say instead, that 'you can control reality to get what you want'.

But perhaps different people have different interpretations of what they are sure it means.

You can say the same about rich men attracting women, but that misses the point.

The maxim is, "like attracts like"

When we are bitter and angry, we attract bitter angry people.

When we are positive and caring, we attract positive caring people.

It has to do with any mental state.

Do buyers attract buyers or do they attract sellers?

Do prey attract prey or do they attract predators?

Dominant people generally attract passive people.

Straight women generally attract straight men.

Doesn't seem like like-like.


I suppose you could limit your premise down so narrowly as to make it "true", but then it is not a universal principle.

I can come up with a million exceptions to this idea.

I notice oftentimes overly aggressive people attract overly submissive compliant people.

I didn't coin the term. I'm simply saying there are a zillion cases where it's true.

I did not claim this or any principal is "universal". Is there such a thing?

So the principle works except when it does not?

The idea specifically has to do with cognitive energy. That like energy attracts like energy.

When you're angry, do you seek someone who is happy and at peace? Unwilling to be sucked into your crap?

Of course not. You look for someone who will sync with your negative energy.

When I am angry I search for a hapless victim to vent upon. :evil:

I certainly don't think there is. And the more miraculous and wonderful events seem to me those that always avoid definition.

Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

Exactly.

You'd never vent to someone who promoted the positive aspects of the person you were mad at.

When we're angry, we desire to vent to people who support our anger.

Why would I? They are bigger than me!

And how does that support "like attracts like"?
