What You Give Attention Grows Powerful

In the Kybalion we are told there are seven laws of the universe. The first being the universe is mental in nature. But another is that of polarity or the law of opposites. The best explanation I have seen of this comes from Ken Wilber's No Boundary in which he writes about the tie between opposites. He asks us to observe a semicircle. One side is concave, the other convex. Concave and convex are opposites, yet one defines the other. Try to draw one without the other. You can keep this going. Draw black without white.
This dualistic view, this view of seperation, of inside verses outside, of perhaps my side and....the other side is actually a choice of where YOU draw boundaries and a potential trap to set you against something.

WHAT YOU RESIST YOU GIVE ATTENTION

ENERGY FLOWS WHERE ATTENTION GOES

You WILL get more of what you resist.

Each boundary is also a connection, an introduction to the necessary and sometimes beautiful contrasts of the world. If you encounter an uncomfortable contrast, let it be just that, information. Something to inform you of what you don't want to create. Choose then to focus on your creation.

PEACE

Thank you for the beautifully insightful website. Everytime I see web pages like this I realize how much closer all of humanity is to a brand new state of mind and "group think". Evolution is happening as we speak; let's put our attention on that!
