Law of Attraction, Intention Manifestation, and Conscious Creation 101 for Beginners

So, we have all heard of the law of attraction, intention manifestation, "you create reality" and other such terms. All of these concepts are beginning to become readily available to whoever may choose to explore them. In the realm of personal development you will hear these terms come up quite a bit. To the average person searching the web, these names don't really make a lot of sense and exploring them can be frustrating. So, what are these tools? What do they do? I would like to take some time to explore the subject and explain some things in more detail.

The fundamental groundwork for understanding what these things are and what they do its the concept that everything in the universe is energy. Just as you would use a screwdriver, clamps, and saws to work on something made of wood, these tools are made to work with energy. The basic flows of human energy are outward flowing, inward taking and neutral, which is a balance of the two. The other concept to understand is that all energy in the universe comes from the same source. Meaning that everything is made from the same "stuff" The "stuff" can compose many different forms and the simplified explanation is that all of those separate forms are one form of energy. That is referred to as "the law of one" The subject of quantum physics in science is exploring that in much greater detail.

The tools of the law of attraction, intention manifestation, visualization and other such things are meant to direct human and universal energy from inside one's self to produce results in the "outside world". The use of these tools requires a new perspective that is inherently different from "what everyone knows" and what was printed in a science book. Belief in the concepts of "post determination" and "subjective reality" determines one's ability to use the tools mentioned. Post determination simply means that all events in one's life are brought about after a decision or choice has been made, not before. Subjective reality is the view that everything an individual experiences is determined by their perspective and how they choose to view it. An example would be, 2 people test-drive the same car. Person number 1 loved it and wants to buy it and person number 2 hated it and would like to see all cars of that model scrapped. The determination and perspective is subjective to the person having the experience.

Once an individual has a solid belief in subjective reality and or post determination they may choose to explore other topics such as the law of attraction and intention manifestation to assist them in creating their life and or reality. Usage of these concepts, and the methods and practices of them rely solely on one's belief in them. However, before moving forward we must first know what they are. It maybe helpful here to illustrate what types of energy each one deals with and what it does.

Let's start with the law of attraction since it's gotten the most global exposure. The law of attraction by definition is similar to gravity as a universal law. It is always working and always in place. The law of attraction also referred to a LOA for short, works with inward taking energy and magnetism. You will hear things such as "like attracts like" when people discuss the law of attraction. Application of this tool in working with human energy would be to purposely take actions that make you feel happy so that other things that make you happy would be drawn to you. Sounds simple, but used alone may or may not produce outstanding results. Humans are a blend of all types of energy composed in a form and basing the use of the tools from that viewpoint can help yield better results.

The concept of intention manifestation deals primarily with outward flowing energy. It's similar to goal achievement but with a little bit more practical universal knowledge behind it. Intention manifestation is used as a means of creating one's reality by thoughts and beliefs and directing positive outward flowing human and universal energy toward a goal or desire. The difference from goal achievement is the embedded concept of post determination. Some one who believes in intention manifestation sets out to do something before having any readily available means or resources with faith that what is needed will be provided after the decision is made. This tool is meant to work in cooperation with the law of attraction to take in the outward flowing energy and give it physical form.

So, what exactly is an intention, and what is a manifestation? An intention is simply a decision with expectancy and faith behind it. A sense of knowingness and willingness to allow it to happen in anyway that works best is all an intention is. Many of us have done this out of anger and produced results before. A manifestation is nothing more than and idea or concept that has been produced as a physical form. The saying "thoughts become things" is along the same lines. Many inventions are example of manifestations that began as a desire and a thought to give it a mental image. Another definition is that a manifestation is physical evidence of non-physical energy.

The term conscious creation is something that comes up quite a lot also. Conscious creation is the usage of metaphysical concepts and tools to create one's experiences by using thoughts, beliefs, and feelings. People, who consciously create, determine what they will have, do and experience in the physical world by their internal non-physical energy and directing it where they want it to go. This would be in direct opposition to the current view of the world and what is believed to be true. An argument for this is that at one point everyone believed and knew that if you sailed to far on the ocean you would fall off, because the earth is flat. Conscious creators are people who are aware of their energy and use the mentioned tools to create situations and desired results with it.

This article is simply a baseline to work with if any of these concepts are new or intrigue you. Investigating any of these topics is food for thought if you have an open mind and are willing to try new things. I highly recommend using tools for directing outward flowing and inward taking energy simultaneously and in conjunction with each other. Personal development, universal laws as well as quantum physics are some of the most intriguing and fascinating concepts of our time. Information available now on these topics could just be the tip of the iceberg on the depths and applications of these subjects. I believe we should all at least consider these ideas and develop their practical applications in our lives.
