Success is the ability to fulfill your desires effortlessly. Success has often been considered a process that involves hard work.  Success is a process, not the destination. There are many parts to success.  Material wealth is just one part.  Having money is not the definition of success. Money is just one thing that makes the journey to success more enjoyable.  Success includes good health, successful relationships, energy and enthusiasm for life, creative freedom, emotional and psychological stability. Health and well-being and peace of mind. True success is the unfolding of the divinity within us.  We are divinity in disguise.  True success is the unfolding of the miraculous within us.WHAT IS A LAW?

Law is a process by which the unmanifest becomes manifest. It’s a process through which the dreamer manifests the dream.  All of creation, the physical world is a result of the unmanifest transforming itself and becoming manifest.  Everything we behold comes from the unknown.  The Bible, however, states that everything comes from God.  Our physical body, the physical universe.   Anything and everything that we can perceive through our senses is the expression of the unmanifest becoming manifest.  When a theory cannot be disproved, it is now considered to be a law of the universe.

The source of all creation is divinity or the spirit of God.  the process of creation, is divinity in motion — the mind.  In other words God created the heavens and the earth.  The unmanifest laws became manifest.  The source of all creation is divinity or the spirit.  The process of creation, is divinity in motion, or the mind.  And then there is the physical universe, which includes the physical body.    When we understand universal laws and apply them in our lives, anything can be accomplished, because the same laws that created the universe, a galaxy or a human body, can also bring about all other desires.

When we  understand these laws, anything we want can be created because the same laws, that nature uses to create a forest or a galaxy, or a human body  can also bring about the fulfillment of all our other desires.

1st SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – The Law of Pure Potentiality

This law is based on the fact that we are in our basic state of pure consciousness potentiality, all possibilities and infinite creativity.  Other attributes of consciousness are pure knowledge, unboundedness, perfect balance, infinite silence, invincibility, simplicity and bliss.

Our internal reference point is our own spirit, and not the object of our spirit.  In object referral, we are influenced by outside objects, people and things.  We constantly seek the approval of objects, people and things.  Our thinking and behavior is always in anticipation of a response.  We tend to want to control things.  We have a need for approval and power.  These needs are based on fear.  This is a power which is usually used to control other people.  If you don’t have fear, you wouldn’t need to control and you wouldn’t need to struggle to have control over others.

Your ego is your self image, your social mask.  Your ego is not who you really are.   That is what wants power and have control.  It lives in fear.  Your true spirit, your soul, is completely free of and immune to criticism and is unfearful of any challenge.  Yet it is humble because it recognizes that everyone else, is the same self, the same spirit in different disguises.  it feels respect for other people, while at the same time, feeling beneath no  one  That’s the difference betwen object referral and self referral.

In self referral, you experience your true being which is unfearful of any challenge.  This is true power.

Power that comes through an object based referral, is ego based power.  This is inferior power because it lasts only as long as the object is there.  For example, the president of a country has object based power because his power only lasts as long as he is in office. As soon as the job, the title and the money goes away, the ego-based power goes alway also.

Self Power is permanent.  It draws people to you and it also draws things that you want to you. People situations and circumstances are drawn to you and support what you want.  This is also natural laws or support from the laws of nature.  Support of divinity.  Your power comes from bonding with people.  Your power is that of bonding.  A bonding that comes from true love.  Love is one of the most powerful forces in the universe.

To access the field of self potentiality, the field of all possibilities, means to experience total silence, to separate yourself for a period of time in silence.  Set aside a little time to experience silence at a certain amount of time per day.  this silences your internal dialogue.  It silences urgencies. As the internal dialogue silences, you begin to experience the field of potentiality.

Practicing SILENCE AND MEDITATION periodically, at least once a day, is one way to experience the law of pure potentiality.  It involves not speaking and not engaging in conversation.  It also means not looking at television, listening to the radio, reading a book  … set aside a little time to experience silence.  Not speaking is one component of experiencing silence for a certain period of the day.

The Bible says “Be still and know that I am God.”  This is also a key factor in hearing from God – silence.  As you become quiet and your internal dialogue quietens, you begin to experience the stillness of the field of pure potentiality or God’s wisdom.

NON JUDGMENT is another way to access the field of pure potentiality.  Because to judge, is to constantly evaluate and classify things as right and wrong, good and bad.  When you are constantly evaluating, classifying, labeling, analyzing and this creates a lot of turbulence internally.   Internal turbulence cuts off or restrict the flow of energy between you and the field of pure potentiality.  You literally squeeze the gap between thoughts and the gap is your connection to the field of pure potentiality.  It is that silent space between thoughts … it is the inner stillness that connects you to true power.  Non judgment creates silence in your mind.

Through non-judgmentalism, silence and meditation you can access the law of pure potentiality.

Spending time in COMMUNION WITH NATURE, in direct communication with nature, whether it be a stream, a forest, a park, a lake, a seashore,  that connection with nature’s intelligence, will also help you access the file of pure potentiality.

Learn to become quiet and listen and you will receive creative thoughts and genius.  The world will freely offer itself to you to become unmasked.  It will roll in ecstacy at your feet.  The affluence of the universe, the lavish display and abundance of the universe, is an expression of the creative mind of God.

The more tuned in you are to the creative mind of God, the more you have access to the infinite, unbounded, creativity of God’s mind.  But you have to go beyond the turbulence of your internal dialogue, to connect with that abundant, affluent, infinite creative mind.  Then you create the possibility of dynamic possibility, while carrying the stillness of the creative unbounded mind.

Stillness is the potentiality for creativity.

All your relationships are a mirror of your relationship with yourself.  If you have guilt, fear or insecurity in a relationship these are a reflection of guilt, fear or insecurity you  have within yourself.  Taking some time to heal and develop yourself FIRST before getting involved with a relationship is wise.

When you truly understand your true nature, you will never feel insecure about anything.

2nd SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – the Law of Giving

The law of giving and receiving, because the universe operates through dynamic exchange.  Nothing is static.  Your mind and body is dynamically interacting with the universe .. Because your mind and body are in constant exchange with the universe, if you stop the exchange of energy, it’s like stopping the flow of blood. As soon as you stop the flow of blood, it begins to clot, to coagulate, to strangle.  That is why you must give and receive in order to keep wealth and affluence or abundance or anything you want in life circulating in your life.

Money is merely a symbol of exchange of goods and services that keep the flow of life going.  In order to have a healthy economy, we must keep the circulation of money flowing.  If your only intention is to hold on to money, since money is life energy, you will stop the circulation of wealth.  When people hold on to money, the government feels inclined to issue “stimulus checks” to stimulate spending, to stimulate the flow and circulation of money to keep the economy robust and alive.  Hoarding money kills the economy.

Like a river, money must keep flowing.  Otherwise it begins to stagnate and it can no longer support life.  Circulation is what keeps it alive and vital.

In reality, receiving is the same thing as giving, because giving and receiving are different aspects of the flow of energy in the universe, the more you give, the more will be returned to you because, you keep the abundance of the universe circulating in your life.

What goes up, must come down.

What goes out, must come back.

And what you give is directly proportional to what you receive.  What you give is unconditional and from the heart.  That is why it is never a good idea to force someone to give.  Giving should always come from the heart.

The best way to put the law of giving into operation, to start the law of circulation, is to make a decision that anytime you come into contact with anyone, you will give them something.  It does not have to be material things, it could be a flower, a compliment, or a prayer.  In fact, the most powerful forms of giving, are non-material.  The gifts of caring, attention, affection, appreciation and love are some of the most precious gifts you can give and they don’t cost you anything.

One of the things I was taught as a child was to never go to someone’s house without taking something, or never visit anyone without bringing them a gift.  This is the way to circulate wealth in your life and the life of others.

As long as you are giving, you will be receiving.  The more you give, the more confident you get and the more you will receive, the more you will be able to give.

Also be in the habit of receiving from others.  Often times people want to give us something and we reject it out of a sense of false humility.

3rd SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – the Law of Karma

Karma is action and the consequence of that action.  It is cause and effect simultaneously because every action generates a force of energy that returns to us in like kind.

What you sow is what you reap.  If you want to create happiness in your life, you must learn to sow seeds of happiness.

Karma implies the action of conscious choice making.  We are infinite choice makers. In every moment of our existence we have access to an infinity of choices and the best way to use karmic law is to become consciously aware of the choices we make in every moment.

Whether you like it or not, everything that is happening to you in this moment, is a result of the choices you’ve made in the past.

A lot of us make choices unconsciously and therefore, we don’t recognize them as choices.  And yet, they are.  I could insult you and you can make the choice to be offended or not be offended.  I could pay you a compliment and you could make the choice of not letting that flatter you or to let it flatter you.

Most of us have become bundles of conditioned reflexes, that are constantly being triggered by people and circumstances into predictable outcomes of behavior.

Most of us have predictable responses to the stimuli in our environment. Our reactions are automatically triggered by people and circumstance and we  forget that these are still choices we are making in every moment of our existence.

Before making a choices, ask yourself, “what are the consequences of this choice that I am making?” “will this choice that I am making now bring happiness to me and to those around me?”  If the answer is yes, then go ahead with that choice.  If that choice will bring distress to you or those around you then don’t make that choice.

Choose actions that nourishes you and everyone else around you.

A universal mechanism to help you make correct choices has to do with the sensations in your body:  the sensation of comfort and the sensation of discomfort.  If you feel “peace” or “comfort” about a decision, chances are it’s the right choice. If you are uneasy or uncomfortable about a choice, don’t make that choice.

Only the heart knows the correct answer.  The heart is intuitive.  It taps into the cosmic computer and takes everything into account.  At times it may not seem rational, but the heart has a computing ability that is far more accurate and far more precise than anything within the limits of rational thought.

Life is a continium of choices, some are made consciously and some are made unconsciously.

You can use the law of karma to create money and affluence and the flow of all good things to you, but first you must become consciously aware that your future is generated by the choices you are making in every moment of your life.

Karma means action and anytime you perform an action, that’s a karmic episode.

The law of karma says that no debt in the universe ever goes unpaid.

4th SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – the law of least effort

This law is based on the fact that nature functions with effortless ease and abandoned carefreeness.  This is the principle of least action.  If we observe nature at work, we see that least effort is expended.  Grass doesn’t TRY to grow.  It just grows.  Fish don’t try to swim.  They just swim.  Flowers don’t try to bloom, they bloom.  Birds don’t try to fly, they fly.  This is their intrinsic nature.  The earth doesn’t try to spin on its own axis, it is the nature of the earth to hurtle through space.  It is the nature of babies to be in bliss … they bubble with bliss. It is the nature of the sun to shine.  It is the nature of the stars to glitter  and sparkle  and it is human nature to make our dreams manifest into physical form easily and effortlessly.

Do less and accomplish more.  What is commonly called a miracle, is the expression of the law of least effort.  Nature functions effortlessly, frictionlessly, spontaneously.  When you are in harmony with nature and established in the knowledge of your true self, you can make use of the law of least effort.

Least effort is expended  when you actions are motivated by  LOVE because nature is held together by this energy of LOVE.  When you seek power and control over other people, you waste energy.  When you seek money or power for the sake of the ego, you spend energy chasing the illusion of happiness instead of enjoying happiness in the moment.

When you seek money for personal gain only, you cut off the flow of energy to you and interfere with the expression of nature.  But when your actions are motivated by love, there is no waste of energy.  When your actions are motivated by love, your energy multiplies and the surplus energy you gather and enjoy, can be channeled to create anything that you want including unlimited wealth.  Your physical body is a device for controlling energy.  It can generate, store and expend energy, and if you know how to do those things in an efficient way, then you can generate any amount of wealth.

When you seek power or control over other people or seek approval from others, you expend your energy in a wasteful way.  When that energy is freed up, it can be rechannelled and used to create anything that you want.  When your internal reference point is your spirit, when you are immune to criticism,  and unfearful of any challenge, you can harness the power of love and use energy creatively for the experience of affluence.

Most of our energy goes into upholding our importance.  If you lost some of that importance, two extraordinary things would happen to us.  We would free our energy from trying to maintain the illusionary idea of our grandeur, and we would provide ourselves with enough energy to catch a glimpse of the actual grandeur of the universe.

Accepting responsibility for your situation and for all the events you see as problems.  Not blaming anyone or anything for your situation.  Responsibility is the creative response to the situation.  All problems contains the seeds of opportunity to take the problem and transform it to a better situation.

Every problem is an opportunity in disguise and this alertness to opportunity, allows me to take this moment and transform it into a greater benefit

You relinquish the need to defend your point of view and have access to enormous amounts of energy to be creative. When you encounter resistance and you force the situation, your resistance will only increase.  You want to be like a reed that bends with the storm and survives.

Follow the path of no resistance.  Remain open to all points of view and not rigidly attached to only one. I do not feel the need to convince others to accept my point of view.

5th SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – the law of intention and desire

This law is based on the fact that energy and information exists everywhere in nature.  All matter, things, etc. when broken down are all energy and information.  The whole universe in its essential nature, is the movement of energy and information.  You are not separate from the universe.  The universe is your extended body.  You are able to change the energy and informational content of your own quantum mechanical body, you can influence the energy and informational content of your extended body, your environment, your world and therefore cause things to manifest in it.

It’s similar to what the Bible says “calling things which be not as though they were”, “we shall have whatsoever we say,” etc.

These changes are brought about by attention and intention.  Attention energizes and intention transforms.  Whatever you put your attention on will grow stronger in your life.  Whatever you take your attention away from, will wither, disintegrate and disappear.   Intention, triggers transformation of energy and information.  Intention is the real power behind desire.  It is desire without attachment to the outcome.  Attention on the fertile ground of intention, has infinite fertilizing organizing power, the power to organize an infinity of events all at the same time.

Intention lays the groundwork for the effortless, spontaneous frictionless flow of pure potentiality seeking expression from the unmanifest to the manifest.

When action is performed in the present moment awareness, it is most effective. The past present and future are all properties of consciousness.  The past is recollection, remembering, memory.  The future is anticipation, the present is AWARENESS.   Therefore, time is the movement of thought.  Both past and future are born in the imagination. Only the present, which is awareness, is real and eternal.  The present is an eternal field of possibilities.  Action in the present becomes the fertile ground for the events of the future.    When the present attention is freed from the burden of the past, action in the present becomes the fertile ground for the creation of the future.

One pointed intention is attention which is unbended in its fixity of purpose and means to hold your attention to the outcome that’s intended with such unbending purpose that you absolutely refuse to put your attention on obstacles.  There is a total and complete exclusion of all obstacles.  If you have life centered, present moment awareness, then the imaginary obstacles which are more than 90% of perceived obstacles, disintegrate and disappear.  The remaining 5-10% of perceived obstacles can be trans muted into opportunities.

Keep your desires to yourself.  Keep them your own private secret.  Do not share them with anyone else unless they share the exact same desires that you have  and are closely bonded with you.

Keep a list of your desires, look at them in the morning, at night and through the day.  Write down the vision.

6th SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – the law of detachment

The law of detachment says that in order to acquire anything in the universe, you have to relinquish your attachment to it.  This doesn’t mean you give up your intention to create your desire, you don’t give up the intention and you don’t give up the desire.  You give up your attachment to the result.  This is a very powerful thing to do.  You still have the intention and desire, but you relinquish your attachment to the result.  The moment you relinquish your attachment to the result, combining intention with detachment at the same time, you will have that which you desire.

Let go and let God.

Symbols such as houses, cars, planes, money, etc. are temporary and transitory.  They come and go.  Chasing symbols, is like settling for the map instead of the territory.  It creates anxiety. It ends up making you feel hollow and empty inside  because you exchange yourself for symbols.

Anything that exists in the physical universe can be acquired by relinquishing your attachment to it.  Attachment comes from poverty consciousness, because attachment is always to symbols.  Detachment is synonymous to wealth consciousness because in the detachment there is freedom to create.  The symbols of wealth are created spontaneously and effortlessly.  Only from detached involvement can one have joy and laughter.  Without detachment, we are prisoners of helplessness, hopelessness, mundane needs, trivial concerns, quiet desperation and seriousness, the distinctive features of every day mediocre existence and poverty consciousness.

People are constantly seeking security, but attachment to money is a sign of insecurity.  The need for security is based on not knowing your true self.    Those who seek security, chase it for a lifetime, without ever finding it .  It remains illusive because security can never come from money alone.   Attachment to money will always create insecurity, no matter how much money you have in the bank, in fact some of the people who have the most money, are the most insecure.

True wealth consciousness is the ability to have anything you want, anytime you want and with least effort.  In this uncertainty you will find freedom to create anything you want.  Security and certainty are a result of rigid attachment to the known.  However, the known is nothing other than the prison of past conditioning.  Uncertainty is the fertile ground of pure creativity and freedom.  Uncertainty is the same thing as tapping into the unknown in every moment of our existence.  The unknown, is the field of all possibilities.  Ever fresh, ever new, always open the the creation of new manifestations.  Without uncertainty and the unknown, life is just a stale repetition of memories.  You become a victim of the past and your torment of today is yourself left over from yesterday.

The search for security is an attachment to the known.  The known is our past.   The prison of past conditioning.  Relinquish your attachment to the known.  Step into the unknown and you will enter the field of all possibilities.  In your willingness to step into the unknown you will have the wisdom of uncertainty factored in and this means that in every moment of your life, you will have excitement, adventure, mystery.  You will experience the fun of life and have an exuberance and zest for living.  Everyday you can look for the excitement of what may occur in that field of all possibilities.  When you experience uncertainty, you are on the right path, so don’t give it up.

you don’t need to have any idea of what’s going to happen a week or month from now, because if you know what’s going to happen, you get rigidly attached to it, and you shut out a whole range of  possibilities.

when you are attached, your attention gets locked into a rigid mindset and you loose the fluidity and the creativity inherent in the field.  When you get attached, you freeze your desire from that infinite fluidity and flexibility into a rigid framework, which interferes with the whole process of creation.

It doesn’t take away from the law of intention, which is goal setting.  it is simply saying that you want to go in that direction but between point A and point B there is an infinity of  possibilities.   With uncertainty factored in, you might change direction at any moment (that’s why praying and asking God’s will be done is crucial, because God could dump something entirely new on you), you find a higher ideal or something more exciting.    You are less likely to force solutions to problems and makes you more alert to opportunities.

When you force solutions to problems, you only create new problems.

What is opportunity?  It’s continued within every problem you have in your life.

Every problem you have in your life is a seed of opportunity for some greater benefit in your life.  When you have this perception, you open up to a whole range of possibilities and this keeps the mystery, the excitement, the adventure alive.

When your attention meets opportunity, solutions spontaneously appear.

Good luck is nothing more than preparedness and opportunity coming together.

7th SPIRITUAL LAW OF SUCCESS – the law of dharma

We have taken manifestation in physical form to fulfill a purpose.  Pure potentiality is divinity in its essence and the divine takes human form  to fulfill a purpose.  You have a unique talent and a unique way of expressing it.  There is something you can do better than anyone else and for every unique talent, there are unique needs.

When these needs are matched with the creative expression of your talent, that is the spark that creates affluence.  Expressing your talents to fulfill needs creates unlimited wealth and abundance.

There is a reason why we are here and we have to find out what that reason for ourselves.

Ask yourself:  How can I serve humanity?  What are my unique talents?  I have a unique talent that no one else has.    Be focused on what you are here to give.

We are spiritual beings who have taken manifestation in physical form.  We are not human beings who have occasional spiritual experiences, we are spiritual beings who have occasional human experiences.

Every human being that is alive has a  unique talent.  there is one thing  you can do and one way of doing it that is better than anyone else on this planet.

Service to humanity.  Serve your fellow human beings.  How can I help those I come into contact with?  when you combine expressing your unique talent with service to humanity, then you make full use of the law of dharma.

The abundance achieved this way is permanent and no one can take it away from you because of your unique talent and way of expressing it to your fellow human beings by asking the question “how can I help?” instead of asking the questions “what’s in it for me?”

Asking the question “What’s in it for me?” is the internal dialogue of ego and selfish pride.  Asking “how can I help?” is the internal dialogue of the loving spirit of God living inside of you.

Use your unique talents to serve your fellow human beings.

How am I best suited to serve humanity?

Discover your divinity, find your unique talents, serve humanity with it and you can generate all the wealth that you want.    When your creative expressions match the needs of your fellow humans, then  wealth spontaneously flows from the unmanifest, into the manifest, from the realm of the spirit, to the world of form.

SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU.
