Key Takeaways

1. The Universe Operates Under Spiritual Laws

When you understand and follow the spiritual laws you can create heaven on Earth.

Life's Team Game. Just as soccer has rules, life on Earth operates under spiritual laws. Understanding and following these laws allows you to participate fully and contribute meaningfully, creating a harmonious existence. Ignoring these laws leads to chaos and disharmony, turning life into a "free-for-all."

Divine Guidance. The universe, like a loving parent, offers guidance and encouragement, not judgment. It holds a vision of your enlightened future, regardless of your current mistakes. This support is constant, with angels ready to assist you on your journey.

Free Will and Consequences. Earth is a plane of free will, allowing you to choose whether to follow these laws. However, your choices have consequences. Following the laws leads to rewards, while disregarding them results in inevitable repercussions.

2. Inner World Reflects Outer Reality

Literally as within so without.

Mirror of the Soul. Your external world is a direct reflection of your internal state. Anger inside manifests as angry people in your life, while inner peace creates a peaceful external environment. This principle extends to your physical body, where emotional vulnerabilities can manifest as physical protections.

Body as a Barometer. The physical body mirrors deep, often unconscious, inner feelings. A pain in the neck might reflect someone being a "pain in the neck," while stiff hips could indicate resistance to moving forward in life. Even inanimate objects, like cars, reflect the inner state of their owners.

Changing the Reflection. To change your outer world, you must first alter your inner beliefs and attitudes. If you wish to change society, enough individuals must change themselves. This inner transformation is the key to creating a different external reality.

3. Request and You Shall Receive

Under spiritual law, if you want help, you must ask for it.

The Etiquette of Assistance. Just as interfering in a friend's concerns without invitation can damage the friendship, spiritual law dictates that help is only given when requested. Unsolicited help prevents others from learning and can even enable negative behaviors.

Asking with Clarity. Asking for help doesn't mean screaming in frustration but calmly and clearly requesting what you need. As soon as you are ready to ask, you are ready to receive, and the higher powers will align to assist you.

The Universe is Listening. The universe is waiting to help you, but you must ask. Clarity in your request is crucial, as the answer lies in the question. The more precise your question, the greater the help you will receive.

4. Attract What You Are, Not What You Want

The Universe rearranges itself to reflect your reality.

Like Attracts Like. You unconsciously transmit energy, and like attracts like. Negative qualities attract similar energies, while positive qualities attract those with similar high-frequency energy. The people and situations in your life are not random; they are drawn to you by your own vibration.

Shadow Work. The more vehemently you deny being a magnet for a particular type of person or situation, the more your Higher Self is asking you to look at your shadow—the negative aspects of yourself that you deny. These denied aspects are what attract the unwanted experiences.

Shifting Your Magnetism. To change what you attract, you must shift how you feel about yourself. If you want a committed partner, commit to loving yourself. If you feel inadequate, remind yourself of your good qualities. The inner transformation will automatically attract different people and experiences.

5. Release Resistance to Embrace Flow

Whatever you resist persists in your life and uses up your energy in struggle.

The Futility of Resistance. Every time you focus on something, you call it towards you. If you don't really want it, trying to push it away only strengthens its presence. Resistance consumes vital energy, keeping you stuck in a cycle of struggle.

The Power of Acceptance. Words like "don't," "can't," "won't," and "not" invoke the Law of Resistance. Instead of resisting failure or poverty, attract success and wealth. Embrace the positive rather than fighting the negative.

Embracing the Positive. Decide what you do want in life and send out magnetic, excited, enthusiastic energies to draw the positive to you. Releasing control frees energy, allowing you to move forward with greater ease and joy.

6. Reflection: See Yourself in Others

Never try to change someone else for they are reflecting you. Look within and change yourself.

The Mirror of the Universe. Earth is a learning environment where your outer world mirrors your inner qualities. Every person and situation in your life reflects an aspect of yourself, both positive and negative.

Changing the Reflection. Instead of trying to fix or change others, look within to alter your own beliefs and attitudes. The more a characteristic in someone else bothers you, the more your soul is trying to draw your attention to a reflection within yourself.

Animals and Objects as Mirrors. Your animals and even inanimate objects also reflect your inner qualities. A well-behaved dog reflects a trustworthy owner, while a leaky faucet reveals leaky emotions. By understanding these reflections, you can gain deeper insights into yourself.

7. Intention: The Arrow of Manifestation

Intention releases a force that makes things happen.

More Than Just Wishing. Intention is more powerful than wants, wishes, or hopes. It's a focused energy that overcomes obstacles and makes things happen. Like an archer aiming at a target, intention gathers energy and unleashes the might of the Universe behind your vision.

The Power of Focused Energy. If you intend to send someone healing at a certain time, the force goes out at that time, whether or not you do the absent healing at that moment. The power of intention can create entry points for light and healing.

Aligning with the Universe. When your intentions are noble and honorable, even if your plan doesn't come to fruition, you will be rewarded for the purity of your ideals. Universal energy supports intention, making it the basis of manifestation.

8. Prosperity: A State of Consciousness

The most spiritual thing is to have money and use it wisely with love.

Abundance is Your Birthright. Your natural birthright is to flow with abundance, including love, joy, happiness, and prosperity. The only thing that can stop you from receiving open-hearted generosity from Source is your consciousness.

Removing the Blocks. Your thoughts, beliefs, memories, and levels of deservingness create barriers to receiving abundance. Remove the beliefs that strangle your prosperity, and open your heart to receive the flow of abundance.

Prosperity Consciousness. Material things flow to you when you have abundance consciousness. This means having a sense of financial well-being and using riches with wisdom. Open up to receive your birthright and live in prosperity.

9. Balance: Integrating Polarities

Our aim is to balance all aspects of our lives.

The Swing of Life. Like a child on a swing, we experience one aspect of life and then its opposite. The more we wish to explore one extreme, the further from the center we swing. Our aim is to integrate these polarities and live in balance.

Balancing Masculine and Feminine. Masculine energy is doing, thinking, logical, and aggressive, while feminine energy is being, creating, intuitive, and passive. Our aim is to balance these internally so that we can listen to our intuition and act on it.

Seeking Equilibrium. We are always seeking balance. When we find it, the lesson is learned, and it is done for all time. Balancing aspects of our personality is like riding a bicycle—you fall off to one side and the other until you find your center.

10. Karma: As You Sow, So Shall You Reap

The law of karma is ‘as you give so you receive’.

The Universal Balance Sheet. Karma is the law of cause and effect, where good and bad thoughts and deeds return to you in some form. Loving thoughts and actions are credits, while negative ones are debits. The Universe calls these up when we least expect it.

Family Karma. Your family is your karma. Your soul chooses your family before you are born to resolve unresolved feelings or situations from a past life. By loving and empowering others, we heal karmic relationships.

Freeing Yourself from Karma. You only carry karma until you have learned the lesson. Ignorance keeps you burdened. Free yourself now through awareness and love. If your beliefs do not make you happy, change them now.

11. Reincarnation: Earth, a School for Souls

You return to Earth again and again until you have mastered the spiritual laws.

The Cycle of Rebirth. Under the Law of Reincarnation, if there is anything unresolved or incomplete at the end of a lifetime, your soul is allowed an opportunity to return in human form to resolve or complete it. This cycle continues until all lessons are learned.

Earth as a Learning Establishment. Earth is a learning establishment in which our lessons are presented to us in the form of experiences. The breaks, weekends, midterms, or holidays are known as death. We have a holiday in spirit before returning to school in the flesh.

The Goal of Ascension. Once you have left the wheel of rebirth behind, you move into higher planes of the Universe, continuing to evolve in the light. Ascension means raising your spiritual vibration to such a level that you do not need to reincarnate.

12. Gratitude: The Key to Abundance

Heartfelt gratitude is a key to abundance. It unlocks the great resources of the Universe.

The Power of Appreciation. When you are totally grateful to a person for something they have done, that person feels the energy of thanks and is so overjoyed by it that they want to give you more. When you send out heartfelt thanks to the Universe for the blessings you have received, the divine energy lovingly responds by giving you even more blessings.

From Hell to Heaven. Judgment and criticism put you in hell. They are the opposite of gratitude and appreciation. Recognize with compassion that others are hurting. Look for one good thing about them or one nice thing they have done for you. Focus on appreciating or being grateful for it.

The Gratitude Journal. If you want your life to become happier, healthier, and more abundant, keep a gratitude journal. Every day, write down a few things you are thankful for. You will find yourself looking for good things to record in it.
