Does the Universe owe you anything?

Spiritual Ethics in Today's World

A client I had visited with many years ago, asked me about the Law of Attraction. The question he put to me was more of a statement, "The Universe," he said, "owes me a living." He went on spouting off about this marvelous universe that was set in place to grant his every wish and fulfill his every need.

After about fifteen minutes, I asked my client, "How is the universe doing in supplying what you want and ask of it?" As it turned out, that was his problem. The universe wasn't supplying him with anything he wanted and he was confused and wanted help with how to control the universe via the Law of Attraction.

Since that client, I have met others with the same attitude. The universe owes me _________ (fill in the blank). Is this where you are coming from? Do you feel that the Law of Attraction is the way in which you can order from the universe what you wish to manifest? If so, I am sure your life is not what you want it to me, nor are you where you want to be in life.

The universe is, in point of fact, an operable set of laws that are in constant motion. These laws cover such sciences at physics, mathematics and even metaphysics. There are more, of course, but the point is this, the universe has a consciousness, but one that supports, facilitates and keeps in motion all of these laws. The universe is not a singular, man-made image such as how God is often portrayed, and from which we demand, command or beg for things to be given us or to manifest in our lives. That is not how it works.

The first key to the Law of Attraction is responsibility. We are responsible for the state of our own lives. We are not necessarily responsible for each circumstance, but that is because we interact with other human beings and we all have free will and free agency. It is our responsibility, however, how we react to our life circumstances.

We are actually responsible to the universe, rather than the reverse. It is our duty and obligation, if we want to develop and evolve in this world and in the universe, to discover and learn the laws that run our universe. It is our responsibility to work with those laws and to flow WITH the universal energy movement. When we are in synchronicity with the universe and universal laws, we are fully activating the Law of Attraction and drawing into our lives, automatically, our personal growth and our wants and needs.

If you put a toddler into a swim pool, the child will begin to sink and then, will naturally hold his breath and discover that he will immediately float to the surface where he can get another breath. Soon, he can be taught how to swim in water and how to stay afloat and how to breathe properly and in sync with his swim strokes. The swim pool represents the universe and we are the toddlers learning how to maneuver in the vast and infinite waters. The water in the swim pool will not adapt to the toddler's needs by giving it oxygen when it is immersed within, rather, the toddler must learn how to operate in the water and maneuver to the surface in order to get the oxygen his body needs.

The universe is complex in its seeming infinity, yet very simple once we learn the laws of the universe and throw away man-made rules that are useless, frustrating and powerless. My client had adopted a man-made rule that in actuality had no substance, no worth and no validity. The universe did not owe him a living. He owed the universe commitment and responsibility to learn the laws governing his world and to learn how to maneuver within to draw to him what ne wanted. Once he learned how to get in sync with the universe, his life changed and he began experiencing genuine happiness, fulfillment and manifestation.

Following the Trail of Open Windows

Spiritual Ethics in Today's World:

Following the Trail of Open Windows

You have probably heard the old saying that "when a door closes, a window opens". It was certainly one I grew up hearing and one that some of today's generation also spouting to their young.

When giving readings thee are times I will use this old saying to illustrate that a chapter in one's life is ending and soon a new one will begin. Often I have discovered, as an astute observer of life's ways and patterns, when a door does close or a chapter closes in our life, there can be a period of limbo, when nothing seems to be happening and wherein we are often without direction. I have heard this referred to in metaphysics as "the dark night of the soul". It is a period of time where we feel as though we have no anchor, no comfort zone, little or no faith and sometimes there can even be depression and giving up on life. Luckily, the "dark night of the soul" doesn't last long. Time CAN heal, or at least, heal us enough to get us motivated and moving again.

Here's how I look at it. No matter how dark the night, morning always brings light. No matter how deep our feelings take us, we never walk alone, especially if we are praying or meditating for help and answers to our questions. There are always loved ones, teachers, adepts and master on the other side ready and willing to provide guidance if we ask their intercession. One thing I encourage my clients to remember is that timing is everything. My youngest sister, who has a fire sign moon, used to say that when she got impatient with how slowly her life was moving, she'd tell God to get out of the driver's seat so she could take over. Of course, that only ended in disaster, but it definitely made life interesting for her for a little while. Many of us do that, or try to. The key to any crisis or dark night is to participate in the resolution of your life's quandary. Do something, even if it is just the immediate task in front of you. By continuing to life you life to the best of you ability, you will sponsor the opening of the next set of doors and windows. I have always told clients and loved ones, if you don't know what direction to take, follow the windows. By taking advantage of the opportunities that come your way, the path will be shown.

Years ago a client I once knew lost her job and was a single mom raising two children. She needed work badly and a way to care for herself and her children. A window opened. She got an offer for part time work at a local University, but she was disappointed because she didn't think she could make it on part time salary. I asked her if there were any other windows open to her and she said no. I told her to following through with that window of opportunity and see where it might lead. She did. It lead her to a full four-year scholarship and the part time job lead to full time work at the University. Today, she is a very fine teacher and is married to a wonderful man who is also a teacher. Her two children went on to college and are leading happy and productive lives as well all because she had the courage to follow the immediate opportunity, i.e., "window" in front of her.

U.S. Political Scene 2008 - a New Age View

Spiritual Ethics in Today's World --- Law of Attraction & Politics

The Time for Action and Intention is NOW!

"Fear and apathy are the two greatest bars to truth and forward action." Robbi Dyer

How can the Law of Attraction be applied to the current political environment that exists in the or elsewhere? When we remember that nothing and no one is exempt from the laws that run this universe, we will stop feeling helpless and victimized. When we realize that when an apple is disconnected from its fastened point to the limb of an apple tree, the apple will fall to the ground because of the law of gravity, we will realize that no individual, no group, no nation is without accountability for its actions and reactions in this universe where we all share life.

Where do we place our focus? We place our focus on what we want to happen, on who we want in leadership positions and on our own thoughts and actions in the present moment. We concentrate on who we believe will fulfill out expectations, not on the opposition. Eckhart Tolle presents the natural laws of existence well in his new book, "A New Earth". In it he states that "what we resist, we draw to us". In essence, if we concentrate on what we do not want, we will draw that into existence, rather than the opposite. The key to winning at politics is nonresistance, focus and holding thought-forms that will yield leaders with the same sense of positive accountability and strength as you are willing to hold the intention for.

When you go to the library to find some good escape literature to read during leisure hours, you are immediately hit with volumes and volumes of books all trying to attract your attention. Every two years, you are bombarded through as many stimuli as the media can thrust on the airways as possible. Candidates crawl out of the woodwork and begin trying to catch your attention and gain your vote. Over the years I have observed, with interest, that during political campaigns of any kind, groups of people often engage in conversation about the various candidates. What I have observed during these periods is that mostly I would hear about which candidate or candidates or party people did not like or did not want to come to power. I would hear criticism, sometimes angry or heated words and nearly always complaints and charges against whomever they did not want and whatever policies they did not want to see executed. Rarely, did I hear positive conversations about good candidates with common sense goals and workable and beneficial strategies for leadership and national (or local) direction.

Wasted energy is not uncommon. We are all guilty of wasting energy and time and action and even our thoughts. Wasted energy serves no purpose and accomplishes little if anything. Wasted energy travels in the direction of our thoughts and actions and often aids what we do not want or what we do not want to happen. By changing our attitudes and our energy strategy, we can actually help the candidates we want in office and the policies we want to see enacted by our government. By focusing on what we do want, we can make a difference. By focusing on the positive, we do not add energy to the negative. We've all heard the evidence. When you think a thought or envision an image, that activity produces energy. Like-energy travels into the Universe and finds like-energy. That like-energy returns into our world producing the quality of events that the initial thought implied. Free will or free agency is our right to make choices. Making choices that favor what we want is far better in end result than the opposite. With so many challenges, both natural and human-caused facing the world today, it is more important than ever that we act and think from a place of spiritual ethics. The coming General Election in the is giving us a chance to practice the metaphysical principals we know to be true and real. Make a commitment to spiritual ethics when you exercise your right to vote this November. Make your vote count and make your thoughts, actions and intentions positive and constructive. The Universe is life affirming. We must be too.

Blessings all, Robbi
