circumstances...........

 

     We are buffeted by circumstances so long as we believe ourselves to be creatures of outside conditions; but when we realize that we are a creative power and that we may command the hidden soil and seeds of our being out of which circumstances arise, then we become the rightful masters of ourselves.

     That circumstances grow out of thought, each of us, who has for any length of time practiced self-control and self-purification, knows—for we will have notices the alteration in our circumstances has been in exact ratio with our altered mental condition.  So true is this that when we earnestly apply ourselves to remedy the defects in our character and make swift and marked progress, we pass rapidly through a succession of vicissitudes.

     The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors, that which it loves, and also that which it fears; it reaches the height of its cherished aspirations; it falls to the level of its basest desires—and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own.

Attraction..............................

     The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors; that which it loves, and also that which it fears;  it reaches the height of its cherished aspirations; it falls to the level of its unchastened desires, and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own.
      Every thought-seed sown or allowed to fall into the mind, and to take root there, produces its own, blossoming sooner or later into act, and bearing its own fruitage of opportunity and circumstance.  Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bad fruit.

-James Allen,   As A Man Thinketh

Vibrational............................................

     Because emotions emit a vibrational energy field, they affect and determine the people who are in our lives.  Life events become influenced by our repressed and suppressed emotions on the psychic level.  Thus anger attracts angry thoughts.  The basic rule of the psychic universe is that "like attracts like."  Similarly, "love promotes love,"  so that the person who has let go of a lot of inner negativity is surrounded by loving thoughts, loving events, loving people, and loving pets.  This phenomenon explains many scriptural quotations and common sayings that have puzzled the intellect, such as, "The rich get richer and poor get poorer," and "Those who have, get."  As a general rule, therefore, people who are carrying the consciousness of apathy bring poverty circumstances into their lives, and those with a prosperity consciousness bring abundance into their lives.

-David Hawkins, as excerpted from Letting Go:  The Pathway of Surrender
