Applying the [universal] Law of Dharma


[APPLYING THE LAW OF “DHARMA” OR PURPOSE IN LIFE]

I will put the Law of Dharma into effect by making a commitment to take the following
steps:

(1) Today I will lovingly nurture the god or goddess in embryo that lies deep within my
soul. I will pay attention to the spirit within me that animates both my body and my mind.
 I will awaken myself to this deep stillness within my heart.
 I will carry the consciousness of timeless, eternal Being in the midst of time-bound experience.

(2) I will make a list of my unique talents. Then I will list all the things that I love to do while
expressing my unique talents. When 1 express my unique talents and use them in the
service of humanity, I lose track of time and create abundance in my life as well as in
the lives of others.

(3) I will ask myself daily, “How can I serve?” and “How can I help?” The answers to these
questions will allow me to help and serve my fellow human beings with love.

The [universal] Law of Dharma Part 2

The [universal] Law of Dharma [Part 2]

If you want to make maximum use of the Law of Dharma,
then you have to make several commitments.
The first commitment is: I am going to seek my higher self, which is beyond my ego,
through spiritual practice.
The second commitment is: I am going to discover my unique talents, and finding my
unique talents, I am going to enjoy myself, because the process of enjoyment occurs when I go
into timeless awareness. That’s when I am in a state of bliss.
The third commitment is: I am going to ask myself how I am best suited to serve humanity.
I am going to answer that question and then put it into practice. I am going to use my unique
talents to serve the needs of my fellow human beings — I will match those needs to my desire to
help and serve others.

Sit down and make a list of the answers to these two questions:
Ask yourself, if money was no concern and you had all the time and money in the world,
what would you do? 
If you would still do what you currently do, then you are in dharma, because you have passion for what you
do — you are expressing your unique talents. Then ask yourself:
How am I best suited to serve humanity? Answer that question, and put it into practice.
Discover your divinity, find your unique talent, serve humanity with it, and you can generate
all the wealth that you want. When your creative expressions match the needs of your fellow
humans, then wealth will spontaneously flow from the unmanifest into the manifest,
from the realm of the spirit to the world of form.
You will begin to experience your life as a miraculous expression of divinity — not just occasionally,
but all the time. And you will know true joy and the true meaning of success ,
—the ecstasy and exultation of your own spirit.

[Applying the Law of Dharma]

The [universal] Law of the Dharma or Purpose in Life

Everyone has a purpose in life ... a unique gift

or special talent to give to others.

And when we blend this unique talent with service

to others, we experience the ecstasy and exultation

of our own spirit, which is the ultimate goal of all goals.

When you work you are a flute through whose

heart the whispering of the hours turns to music.

And what is it to work with love. It is to weave the

cloth with threads drawn from your heart, even as if

your beloved were to wear that cloth. . . .

~— Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

The [universal] Law of Dharma | Purpose in Life

Dharma is a Sanskrit word
that means “purpose in life.” The Law of Dharma says that we have taken manifes
tation in physical form to fulfill a purpose. The field of pure potentiality is divinity in
its essence, and the divine takes human form to fulfill a purpose.

According to this law, you have a unique talent and a unique way of expressing it. There is
something that you can do better than anyone else in the whole world — and for every unique
talent and unique expression of that talent, there are also unique needs. When these needs are
matched with the creative expression of your talent, that is the spark that creates affluence.
Expressing your talents to fulfill needs creates unlimited wealth and abundance.

If you could start children right from the beginning with this thought, you’d see the effect it
has on their lives. In fact, I did this with my own children. Again and again, I told them there was
a reason why they were here, and they had to find out what that reason was for themselves.
From the age of four years, they heard this. I also taught them to meditate when they were
about the same age, and I told them, “I never, ever want you to worry about making a living.
If you’re unable to make a living when you grow up, I’ll provide for you, so don’t worry about that.
I don’t want you to focus on doing well in school. I don’t want you to focus on getting the best
grades or going to the best colleges. What I really want you to focus on is asking yourself how
you can serve humanity, and asking yourself what your unique talents are.
Because you have a unique talent that no one else has,
and you have a special way of expressing that talent, and no one else has it.”
They ended up going to the best schools, getting the best grades, and even in college,
they are unique in that they are financially self-sufficient, because they are focused on
what they are here to give. This then, is the Law of Dharma.

There are three components to the Law of Dharma. The first component says that each of
us is here to discover our true Self, to find out on our own that our true Self is spiritual, that
essentially we are spiritual beings that have taken manifestation in physical form. We’re not
human beings that have occasional spiritual experiences — it’s the other way around: we’re
spiritual beings that have occasional human experiences.
Each of us is here to discover our higher self or our spiritual self. That’s the first fulfillment
of the Law of Dharma. We must find out for ourself that inside us is a god or goddess in embryo
that wants to be born so that we can express our divinity.
The second component of the Law of Dharma is to express our unique talents.
The Law of Dharma says that every human being has a unique talent.
You have a talent that is unique in its expression,
so unique that there’s no one else alive on this planet that has that talent, or that
expression of that talent. This means that there’s one thing you can do, and one way of doing
it, that is better than anyone else on this entire planet. When you’re doing that one thing, you
lose track of time. When you’re expressing that one unique talent that you possess — or more
than one unique talent in many cases — the expression of that talent takes you into timeless
awareness.

The third component of the Law of Dharma is service to humanity — to serve your fellow
human beings and to ask yourself the questions, “How can I help? How can I help all those that
I come into contact with?” When you combine the ability to express your unique talent with
service to humanity, then you make full use of the Law of Dharma.
 And coupled with the experience of your own spirituality, the field of pure potentiality,
 there is no way you will not have access to unlimited abundance, because
that is the real way abundance is achieved.
This is not a temporary abundance; it’s permanent, because of your unique talent, your
way of expressing it, and your service and dedication to your fellow human beings, which you
discover through asking the question, “How can I help?” instead of “What’s in it for me?”

The question, “What’s in it for me?” is the internal dialogue of the ego.
Asking “How can I help?” is the internal dialogue of the spirit. The spirit is that domain of your awareness where
you experience your universality. In just shifting your internal dialogue from “What’s in it for
me?” to “How can I help?” you automatically go beyond the ego into the domain of your spirit.
While meditation is the most useful way of entering the domain of spirit, simply shifting your
internal dialogue to “How can I help?” will also access the spirit, that domain of your awareness

where you experience your universality.

Applying the [universal] Law of Detachment

Applying the [universal] Law of Detachment

I will put the Law of Detachment into effect by making a commitment to take the following
steps:

(1) Today I will commit myself to detachment. 1 will allow myself and those around me the
freedom to be as they are. I will not rigidly impose my idea of how things should be. I
will not force solutions on problems, thereby creating new problems. I will participate
in everything with detached involvement.

(2) Today I will factor in uncertainty as an essential ingredient of my experience. In my
willingness to accept uncertainty, solutions will spontaneously emerge out of the problem,
out of the confusion, disorder, and chaos. The more uncertain things seem to be,
the more secure I will feel, because uncertainty is my path to freedom. Through the
wisdom of uncertainty, I will find my security.

(3) I will step into the field of all possibilities and anticipate the excitement that can occur
when I remain open to an infinity of choices. When I step into the field of all possibilities,
I will experience all the fun, adventure, magic, and mystery of life.

Back to [The Apotheosis]

The [universal] Law of Detachment Part 2

The [universal] Law of Detachment [Part 2]

Uncertainty, on the other hand, is the fertile ground of pure creativity and freedom. Uncertainty
means stepping into the unknown in every moment of our existence.
The unknown is the field of all possibilities, ever fresh, ever new, always open to the creation ot new manifestations. Without uncertainty and the unknown, life is just the stale repetition of outworn memories. You become the victim of the past, and your tormentor today is your self left over from yesterday.

Relinquish your attachment to the known, step into the unknown, and you will step into the
field of all possibilities. In your willingness to step into the unknown, you will have the wisdom
of uncertainty factored in. This means that in every moment of your life,
you will have excitement, adventure, mystery.
You will experience the fun of life — the magic, the celebration, the
exhilaration, and the exultation of your own spirit.
Every day you can look for the excitement of what may occur in the field of all possibilities.
When you experience uncertainty, you are on the right path — so don’t give it up. You don’t
need to have a complete and rigid idea of what you’ll be doing next week or next year, because
if you have a very clear idea of what’s going to happen and you get rigidly attached to it, then
you shut out a whole range of possibilities.
One characteristic of the field of all possibilities is infinite correlation. The field can orchestrate
an infinity of space-time events to bring about the outcome that is intended. But when you
are attached, your intention gets locked into a rigid mindset and you lose the fluidity, the creativity,
and the spontaneity inherent in the field. When you get attached, you freeze your desire
from that infinite fluidity and flexibility into a rigid framework which interferes with the whole
process of creation.

The Law of Detachment does not interfere with the Law of Intention and Desire — with
goal-setting. You still have the intention of going in a certain direction, you still have a goal.
However, between point A and point B there are infinite possibilities. With uncertainty factored
in, you might change direction in any moment if you find a higher ideal, or if you find something
more exciting. You are also less likely to force solutions on problems, which enables you to stay
alert to opportunities.
The Law of Detachment accelerates the whole process of evolution. When you understand
this law, you don’t feel compelled to force solutions. When you force solutions on problems,
you only create new problems. But when you put your attention on the uncertainty, and you
witness the uncertainty while you expectantly wait for the solution to emerge out of the chaos
and the confusion, then what emerges is something very fabulous and exciting.
This state of alertness — your preparedness in the present, in the field of uncertainty —
meets with your goal and your intention and allows you to seize the opportunity. What’s the
opportunity? It’s contained within every problem that you have in your life. Every single problem
that you have in your life is the seed of an opportunity for some greater benefit.

Once you have that perception, you open up to a whole range of possibilities — and this keeps the
mystery, the wonder, the excitement, the adventure alive.
You can look at every problem you have in your life as an opportunity for some greater
benefit. You can stay alert to opportunities by being grounded in the wisdom of uncertainty.
When your preparedness meets opportunity, the solution will spontaneously appear.
What comes out of that is often called “good luck.” Good luck is nothing but preparedness
and opportunity coming together. When the two are mixed together with an alert witnessing of
the chaos, a solution emerges that will be of evolutionary benefit to you and to all those that you
come into contact with. This is the perfect recipe for success, and it is based on the Law of
Detachment.

[Applying The [universal] Law of Detachment]

[source:7 spiritual Laws of Success]

The [universal] Law of Detachment

In detachment lies the wisdom of uncertainty,

in the wisdom of uncertainty lies the freedom from

our past, from the known, which is the prison of past conditioning.

And in our willingness to step into the unknown,

the field of all possibilities, we surrender ourselves to

the creative mind that orchestrates the dance of the universe.

Like two golden birds perched on the selfsame

tree, intimate friends, the ego and the Self dwell in

the same body. The former eats the sweet and sour

fruits of the tree of life, while the latter looks on in detachment.

— ~The Mundaka Upanishad

The [universal] Law of Detachment 

The Law of Detachment
says that in order to acquire anything in the physical universe, you have to relinquish
your attachment to it. This doesn’t mean you give up the intention to create your
desire. You don’t give up the intention, and you don’t give up the desire. You give up your
attachment to the result.
This a very powerful thing to do. The moment you relinquish your attachment to the result,
combining one-pointed intention with detachment at the same time, you will have that which
you desire. Anything you want can be acquired through detachment, because detachment is
based on the unquestioning belief in the power of your true Self.
Attachment, on the other hand, is based on fear and insecurity — and the need for security
is based on not knowing the true Self. The source of wealth, of abundance, or of anything in the
physical world is the Self; it is the consciousness that knows how to fulfill every need. Everything
else is a symbol: cars, houses, bank notes, clothes, airplanes. Symbols are transitory; they come
and go. Chasing symbols is like settling for the map instead of the territory. It creates anxiety; it
ends up making you feel hollow and empty inside, because you exchange your Self for the
symbols of your Self.
Attachment comes from poverty consciousness, because attachment is always to symbols.
Detachment is synonymous with wealth consciousness, because with detachment there is freedom
to create. Only from detached involvement can one have joy and laughter. Then the
symbols of wealth are created spontaneously and effortlessly.
Without detachment we are prisoners of helplessness, hopelessness, mundane needs, trivial concerns, quiet desperation, and seriousness — the distinctive features of everyday mediocre existence and poverty consciousness.

True wealth consciousness is the ability to have anything you want,
anytime you want, and with least effort.
To be grounded in this experience you have to be grounded in the wisdom of
uncertainty. In this uncertainty you will find the freedom to create anything you want.
People are constantly seeking security, and you will find that seeking security is actually a
very ephemeral thing. Even attachment to money is a sign of insecurity. You might say, “When
I have X million dollars, then I’ll be secure. Then I’ll be financially independent and I will retire.

Then I will do all the things I really want to do.” But it never happens — never happens
Those who seek security chase it for a lifetime without ever finding it. it remains elusive and
ephemeral, because security can never come from money alone. Attachment to money will
always create insecurity no matter how much money you have in the bank. In fact, some of the
people who have the most money are the most insecure.
The search for security is an illusion. In ancient wisdom traditions, the solution to this
whole dilemma lies in the wisdom of insecurity, or the wisdom of uncertainty. This means that
the search for security and certainty is actually an attachment to the known.
And what’s the known? The known is our past.
The known is nothing other than the prison of past conditioning.
There’s no evolution in that — absolutely none at all. And when there is no evolution,
there is stagnation, entropy, disorder, and decay.

Applying the [universal] Law of Desire and Intention

Applying the [universal] Law of Desire and Intention

I will put the Law of Intention and Desire into effect by making a commitment to take the
following steps:

(1) I will make a list of all my desires. I will carry this list with me wherever I go. I will look
at this list before I go into my silence and meditation. I will look at it before I go to sleep
at night. I will look at it when I wake up in the morning.

(2) I will release this list of my desires and surrender it to the womb of creation, trusting
that when things don’t seem to go my way, there is a reason, and that the cosmic plan
has designs for me much grander than even those that I have conceived.

(3) I will remind myself to practice present-moment awareness in all my actions. I will
refuse to allow obstacles to consume and dissipate the quality of my attention in the
present moment. I will accept the present as it is, and manifest the future through my
deepest, most cherished intentions and desires.

Back to [The Apotheosis]

[source:7 spiritual Laws of Success]

The [universal] Law of Intention and Desire Part 3

The [universal] Law of Intention and Desire [Part 3]

The past, present, and future are all properties of consciousness. The past is recollection,
memory; the future is anticipation; the present is awareness. Therefore time is the movement
of thought. Both past and future are born in the imagination; only the present, which is awareness,
is real and eternal. It is. It is the potentiality for space-time, matter, and energy.
It is an eternal field of possibilities experiencing itself as abstract forces,
whether they be light, heat, electricity, magnetism, or gravity.
These forces are neither in the past nor in the future. They just are.

Our interpretation of these abstract forces gives us the experience of concrete phenomena
and form. Remembered interpretations of abstract forces create the experience of the past,
anticipatory interpretations of the same abstract forces create the future.
They are the qualities of attention in consciousness.
When these qualities are freed from the burden of the past,
then action in the present becomes the fertile ground for the creation of the future.
Intention, grounded in this detached freedom of the present, serves as the catalyst for the
right mix of matter, energy, and space-time events to create whatever it is that you desire.
If you have life-centered, present-moment awareness, then the imaginary obstacles —
which are more than ninety percent of perceived obstacles — disintegrate and disappear.
The remaining five to ten percent of perceived obstacles
can be transmuted into opportunities through one-pointed intention.

One-pointed intention is that quality of attention that is unbending in its fixity of purpose.
One-pointed intention means holding your attention to the intended outcome with such unbending
purpose that you absolutely refuse to allow obstacles to consume and dissipate the
focused quality of your attention. There is a total and complete exclusion of all obstacles from
your consciousness. You are able to maintain an unshakable serenity while being committed to
your goal with intense passion. This is the power of detached awareness and one-pointed,
focused intention simultaneously.

Learn to harness the power of intention, and you can create anything you desire. You can
still get results through effort and through trying, but at a cost. The cost is stress, heart attacks,
and the compromised function of your immune system. It is much better to execute the following
five steps in the Law of Intention and Desire. When you follow these five steps for fulfilling
your desires, intention generates its own power:

(1) Slip into the gap. This means to center yourself in that silent space between thoughts,
to go into the silence — that level of Being which is your essential state.

(2) Established in that state of Being, release your intentions and desires. When you are
actually in the gap, there’s no thought, there’s no intention, but as you come out of the
gap — at that junction between the gap and a thought — you introduce the intention.
If you have a series of goals, you can write them down, and have your intention
focused on them before you go into the gap. If you want a successful career, for
example, you go into the gap with that intention, and the intention will already be
there as a faint flicker in your awareness. Releasing your intentions and desires in the
gap means planting them in the fertile ground of pure potentiality, and expecting them
to bloom when the season is right. You do not want to dig up the seeds of your desires
to see if they are growing, or get rigidly attached to the way in which they will unfold.
You simply want to release them.


(3) Remain in the state of self-referral. This means remain established in the awareness of
your true Self — your spirit, your connection to the field of pure potentiality. It also
means not to look at yourself through the eyes of the world, or allow yourself to be
influenced by the opinions and criticisms of others. A helpful way to maintain that
state of self-referral is to keep your desires to yourself; do not share them with anyone
else unless they share the exact same desires that you have and are closely bonded
with you.

(4) Relinquish your attachment to the outcome. This means giving up your rigid attachment
to a specific result and living in the wisdom of uncertainty. It means enjoying
every moment in the journey of your life, even if you don’t know the outcome.

(5) Let the universe handle the details. Your intentions and desires, when released in the
gap, have infinite organizing power. Trust that infinite organizing power of intention
to orchestrate all the details for you.
Remember that your true nature is one of pure spirit. Carry the consciousness of your spirit
wherever you go, gently release your desires, and the universe will handle the details for you.

[Applying the Law of Intention and Desire]

[source:7 spiritual Laws of Success]

The [universal] Law of Intention and Desire Part 2

The [universal] Law of Intention and Desire [Part 2]

This conscious change is brought about by the two qualities inherent in consciousness:
attention and intention. Attention energizes, and intention transforms. Whatever you put your
attention on will grow stronger in your life. Whatever you take your attention away from will
wither, disintegrate, and disappear. Intention, on the other hand, triggers transformation of
energy and information. Intention organizes its own fulfillment.

The quality of intention on the object of attention will orchestrate an infinity of space-time
events to bring about the outcome intended, provided one follows the other universal laws of
success. This is because intention in the fertile ground of attention has infinite organizing power.
Infinite organizing power means the power to organize an infinity of space-time events, all at
the same time. We see the expression of this infinite organizing power in every blade of grass,
in every apple blossom, in every cell of our body. We see it in everything that is alive.
In the scheme of nature, everything correlates and connects with everything else.
Thegroundhog comes out of the earth and you know it is going to be spring.
Birds begin to migrate in a certain direction at a certain time of the year.
Nature is a symphony. And that symphony is being silently orchestrated at the ultimate ground of creation.
The human body is another good example of this symphony. A single cell in the human
body is doing about six trillion things per second, and it
has to know what every other cell is doing at the same time.
The human body can play music, kill germs, make a baby, recite poetry, and monitor
the movement of stars all at the same time, because the field of infinite correlation
is part of its information field.

What is remarkable about the nervous system of the human species is that it can command
this infinite organizing power through conscious intent. Intent in the human species is not fixed
or locked into a rigid network of energy and information. It has infinite flexibility. In other
words, as long as you do not violate the other laws of nature, through your intent you can
literally command the laws of nature to fulfill your dreams and desires.
You can put the cosmic computer with its infinite organizing power to work for you. You
can go to that ultimate ground of creation and introduce an intention, and just by introducing
the intention, you activate the field of infinite correlation.
Intention lays the groundwork for the effortless, spontaneous, frictionless flow of pure
potentiality seeking expression from the unmanifest to the manifest. The only caution is that
you use your intent for the benefit of mankind. This happens spontaneously when you are in
alignment with The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success.

Intention is the real power behind desire. Intent alone is very powerful, because intent is
desire without attachment to the outcome. Desire alone is weak, because desire in most people
is attention with attachment. Intent is desire with strict adherence to all the other laws, but
particularly the Law of Detachment.
Intention combined with detachment leads to life-centered, present-moment awareness.
And when action is performed in present-moment awareness, it is most effective. Your intent is
for the future, but your attention is in the present. As long as your attention is in the present,
then your intent for the future will manifest, because the future is created in the present.
You must accept the present as is. Accept the present and intend the future. The future is something
you can always create through detached intention, but you should never struggle against the
present.

The [universal] Law of Intention and Desire

Inherent in every intention and desire is the

mechanics for its fulfillment. . . intention and desire

in the field of pure potentiality have infinite organizing

power.

And when we introduce an intention in the fertile

ground of pure potentiality, we put this infinite

organiyng power to work for us.

In the beginning there was desire, which was

the first seed of mind; sages, having meditated in

their hearts, have discovered by their wisdom the

connection of the existent with the non-existent.

~— The Hymn of Creation, The Rig Veda

The [universal] Law of Intention and Desire

This law is based on the fact that energy and information exist everywhere in nature.
In fact, at the level of the quantum field, there is nothing other than energy and information.
The quantum field is just another label for the field of pure consciousness or pure potentiality.
And this quantum field is influenced by intention and desire. Let’s examine this process in detail.
A flower, a rainbow, a tree, a blade of grass, a human body, when broken down to their
essential components, are energy and information. The whole universe, in its essential nature,
is the movement of energy and information. The only difference between you and a tree is the
informational and energy content of your respective bodies.

On the material level, both you and the tree are made up of the same recycled elements:
mostly carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and other elements in minute amounts. You could
buy these elements in a hardware store for a couple of dollars.
The difference, therefore, between you and the tree is not the carbon, or the hydrogen, or the oxygen.
In fact; you and the tree are constantly exchanging your carbon and oxygen with each other.
The real difference between the two of you is in the energy and in the information.

In the scheme of nature, you and I are a privileged species. We have a nervous system that
is capable of becoming aware of the energy and informational content of that localized field that
gives rise to our physical body. We experience this field subjectively as our own thoughts,
feelings, emotions, desires, memories, instincts, drives, and beliefs. This same field is experienced
objectively as the physical body — and through the physical body, we experience this
field as the world. But it’s all the same stuff.
That is why the ancient seers exclaimed, “I am that, you are that, all this is that, and that’s all there is.”
Your body is not separate from the body of the universe, because at quantum mechanical
levels there are no well-defined edges. You are like a wiggle, a wave, a fluctuation, a convolution,
a whirlpool, a localized disturbance in the larger quantum field. The larger quantum field
— the universe — is your extended body.

Not only is the human nervous system capable of becoming aware of the information and
energy of its own quantum field, but because human consciousness is infinitely flexible through
this wonderful nervous system, you are able to consciously change the informational content
that gives rise to your physical body.
You can consciously change the energy and informational content or your own quantum mechanical body, and therefore influence the energy and informational content of your extended body — your environment, your world — and cause things to manifest in it.

Applying the universal Law of Least Effort

Applying the [universal] Law of Least Effort

I will put the Law of Least Effort into effect by making a commitment to take the following
steps:

(1) I will practice Acceptance. Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances, and
events as they occur. I will know that this moment is as it should be, because the whole
universe is as it should be. I will not struggle against the whole universe by struggling
against this moment. My acceptance is total and complete. I accept things as they are
this moment, not as I wish they were.

(2) Having accepted things as they are, I will take Responsibility for my situation and for
all those events I see as problems. I know that taking responsibility means not blaming
anyone or anything for my situation (and this includes myself). I also know that every
problem is an opportunity in disguise, and this alertness to opportunities allows me to
take this moment and transform it into a greater benefit.

(3) Today my awareness will remain established in Defenselessness. I will relinquish the
need to defend my point of view. I will feel no need to convince or persuade others to
accept my point of view. I will remain open to all points of view and not be rigidly
attached to any one of them.

Back to [The Apotheosis]

The universal Law of Least Effort Part 3

The [universal] Law of Least Effort Part 3

The third component of the Law of Least Effort is defencelessness, which means that your
awareness is established in defenselessness, and you have relinquished the need to convince or
persuade others of your point of view. If you observe people around you, you’ll see that they
spend ninety-nine percent of their time defending their points of view. If you just relinquish the
need to defend your point of view, you will in that relinquishment, gain access to enormous
amounts of energy that have been previously wasted.

When you become defensive, blame others, and do not accept and surrender to the moment,
your life meets resistance. Any time you encounter resistance, recognize that if you force
the situation, the resistance will only increase. You don’t want to stand rigid like a tall oak that
cracks and collapses in the storm. Instead, you want to be flexible, like a reed that bends with
the storm and survives.
Completely desist from defending your point of view. When you have no point to defend,
you do not allow the birth of an argument. If you do this consistently — if you stop fighting and
resisting — you will fully experience the present, which is a gift. Someone once told me, “The
past is history, the future is a mystery, and this moment is a gift.
That is why this moment is called ‘the present’.”

If you embrace the present and become one with it, and merge with it, you will experience
a fire, a glow, a sparkle of ecstasy throbbing in every living sentient being.
As you begin to experience this exultation of spirit in everything that is alive,
as you become intimate with it, joy will be born within you,
and you will drop the terrible burdens and encumbrances of defensiveness,
resentment, and hurtfulness.
Only then will you become light-hearted, carefree, joyous, and free.
In this joyful, simple freedom, you will know without any doubt in your heart that what you
want is available to you whenever you want it, because your want will be from
 the level of happiness, not from the level of anxiety or fear. You do not need to justify; simply declare your
intent to yourself, and you will experience fulfillment, delight, joy, freedom, and autonomy in
every moment of your life.
Make a commitment to follow the path of no resistance. This is the path through which
nature’s intelligence unfolds spontaneously, without friction or effort. When you have the exquisite
combination of acceptance, responsibility, and defenselessness, you will experience life
flowing with effortless ease.

When you remain open to all points of view — not rigidly attached to only one — your
dreams and desires will flow with nature’s desires. Then you can release your intentions,
without attachment, and just wait for the appropriate season for your desires
to blossom into reality. You can be sure that when the season is right, your desires will manifest.
This is the Law of Least Effort.

The universal Law of Least Effort Part 2

The [universal] Law of Least Effort [Part 2]

In The Art of Dreaming, Don Juan tells Carlos Castaneda, “. . . "most of our energy goes
into upholding our importance. ... If we were capable of losing some of that importance, two
extraordinary things would happen to us: One, we would free our energy from trying to maintain
the illusory idea of our grandeur; and two, we would provide ourselves with enough energy
to catch a glimpse or the actual grandeur of the universe.”"

There are three components to the Law of Least Effort — three things you can do to put
this principle of “do less and accomplish more” into action. The first component is acceptance.

Acceptance simply means that you make a commitment:
“Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances, and events as they occur.”
This means I will know that this moment is as it should be,
because the whole universe is as it should be.
This moment — the one you´’re  experiencing right now — is the
culmination of all the moments you have experienced in the past.
This moment is as it is because the entire universe is as it is.
When you struggle against this moment, you´’re actually struggling against the entire universe.

Instead, you can make the decision that today you will not struggle against the whole
universe by struggling against this moment. This means that your acceptance of this moment is
total and complete. You accept things as they are, not as you wish they were in this moment.
This is important to understand. You can wish for things in the future to be different, but in this
moment you have to accept things as they are.
When you feel frustrated or upset by a person or a situation, remember that you are not
reacting to the person or the situation, but to your feelings about the person or the situation.
These are your feelings, and your feelings are not someone else’s fault. When you recognize
and understand this completely, you are ready to take responsibility for how you feel and to
change it. And if you can accept things as they are, you are ready to take responsibility for your
situation and for all the events you see as problems.

This leads us to the second component of the Law of Least Effort: responsibility. What
does responsibility mean? Responsibility means not blaming anyone or anything for your situation,
including yourself. Having accepted this circumstance, this event, this problem, responsibility
then means the ability to have a creative response to the situation as it is now. All problems
contain the seeds of opportunity, and this awareness allows you to take the moment and
transform it to a better situation or thing.

Once you do this, every so-called upsetting situation will become an opportunity for the
creation of something new and beautiful, and every so-called tormentor or tyrant will become
your teacher. Reality is an interpretation. And if you choose to interpret reality in this way, you
will have many teachers around you, and many opportunities to evolve.
Whenever confronted by a tyrant, tormentor, teacher, friend, or foe (they all mean the
same thing) remind yourself, “This moment is as it should be.” Whatever relationships you have
attracted in your life at this moment are precisely the ones you need in your life at this moment.

There is a hidden meaning behind all events, and this hidden meaning is serving your own
evolution.

The universal Law of Least Effort

Nature 5 intelligence functions with effortless

ease . . . with carefreeness, harmony, and love.

And when we harness the forces of harmony,

joy, and love, we create success and good fortune

with effortless ease.

An integral being knows without going, sees

without looking, and accomplishes without doing.

— ~Lao TZU

The [universal] Law of Least Effort

This law is based on the fact that nature’s intelligence functions with effortless ease
and abandoned carefulness. This is the principle of least action, of no resistance.
This is, therefore, the principle of harmony and love.
When we learn this lesson from nature, we easily fulfill our desires.

If you observe nature at work, you will see that least effort is expended.
Grass doesn’t try to grow, it just grows. Fish don’t try to swim, they just swim.
Flowers don’t try to bloom, they bloom. Birds don’t try to fly, they fly. [LYL comment:one example too much,seriously...]
This is their intrinsic nture.
The earth doesn’t try to spin on its own axis; it is the nature of the earth to spin
with dizzying speed and to hurtle through space. It is the nature of babies to be in bliss.
It is the nature of the sun to shine. It is the nature of the stars to glitter and sparkle.
And it is human nature to make our dreams manifest into physical form, easily and effortlessly.

In Vedic Science, the age-old philosophy of India, this principle is known as the principle of
economy of effort, or “do less and accomplish more.” Ultimately you come to the state where
you do nothing and accomplish everything. This means that there is just a faint idea,
and then the manifestation of the idea comes about effortlessly.
What is commonly called a “miracle” is actually an expression of the Law of Least Effort.
Nature’s intelligence functions effortlessly, fric-tionlessly, spontaneously. It is non-linear; it
is intuitive, holistic, and nourishing. And when you are in harmony with nature, when you are
established in the knowledge of your true self, you can make use or the Law of Least Effort.

Least effort is expended when your actions are motivated by love, because nature is held
together by the energy of love. When you seek power and control over other people, you waste
energy. When you seek money or power for the sake of the ego, you spend energy chasing the
illusion of happiness instead of enjoying happiness in the moment. When you seek money for
personal gain only, you cut off the flow of energy to yourself, and interfere with the expression
of nature’s intelligence. But when your actions are motivated by love, there is no waste of
energy. When your actions are motivated by love, your energy multiplies and accumulates —
and the surplus energy you gather and enjoy can be channeled to create anything that you want,
including unlimited wealth.

You can think of your physical body as a device for controlling energy: it can generate,
store, and expend energy. If you know how to generate, store,
and expend energy in an efficient way, then you can create any amount of wealth.
Attention to the ego consumes the greatest amount of energy. When your internal reference point is the ego, when you seek power and control over other people or seek approval from others, you spend energy in a
wasteful way.
When that energy is freed up, it can be rechanneled and used to create anything that you
want. When your internal reference point is your spirit, when you are immune to criticism and

unfearful of any challenge, you can harness the power of love, and use energy creatively for the
experience of affluence and evolution.

Applying the Law of Cause and Effect

Applying the [universal] Law of Cause and Effect

I will put the Law of Karma into effect by making a commitment to take the following
steps:

(1) Today I will witness the choices I make in each moment. And in the mere witnessing of
these choices, I will bring them to my conscious awareness. I will know that the best
way to prepare for any moment in the future is to be fully conscious in the present.
(2) Whenever I make a choice, I will ask myself two questions: “What are the consequences
of this choice that I’m making?” and “Will this choice bring fulfillment and
happiness to me and also to those who are affected by this choice?”
(3) I will then ask my heart for guidance and be guided by its message of comfort or
discomfort. If the choice feels comfortable, I will plunge ahead with abandon. If the
choice feels uncomfortable, I will pause and see the consequences of my action with
my inner vision. This guidance will enable me to make spontaneously correct choices
for myself and for all those around me.

The Law of Cause and Effect Part 3

The [universal] Law of Cause and Effect[Part 3]

What about past karma and how it is influencing you now?

There are three things you can do about past karma.
One is to pay your karmic debts. Most people choose to do that —
unconsciously, of course. This may be a choice you make, also.
Sometimes there’s a lot of suffering involved in the payment of those debts, but the Law of Karma says no debt in the universe ever goes unpaid. There is a perfect accounting system in this universe, and everything
is a constant “to and fro” exchange of energy.

The second thing you can do is to transmute or transform your karma to a more desirable
experience. This is a very interesting process in which you ask yourself, as you’re paying your
karmic debt, “What can I learn from this experience? Why is this happening and what is the
message that the universe is giving to me? How can I make this experience useful to my fellow
human beings?”

By doing this, you look for the seed of opportunity and then tie that seed of opportunity
with your dharma, with your purpose in life.
This allows you to transmute the karma to a new expression.
For example, if you break your leg while playing sports, you might ask, “
What can I learn from this experience? What is the message that the universe is giving me?”
Perhaps the message is that you need to slow down and be more careful
or attentive to your body the next time.
And if your dharma is to teach others what you know, then by asking, “
"How can I make this experience useful to my fellow human beings?”" You may decide to share what you learned by writing a book about playing sports safely.
Or you may design a special shoe or leg support that prevents the kind of injury you experienced.
This way, while paying your karmic debt, you will have also converted the adversity into a
benefit that may bring you wealth and fulfillment. This is the transmutation of your karma into
a positive experience. You haven’t really gotten rid of your karma, but you are able to take a
karmic episode and create a new and positive karma out of it.

The third way to deal with karma is to transcend it. To transcend karma is to become
independent of it. The way to transcend karma is to keep experiencing the gap, the Self, the
Spirit. It’s like washing a dirty piece of cloth in a stream of water. Every time you wash it, you
take away a few stains. You keep washing it again and again, and each time it gets a little
cleaner. You wash or transcend the seeds of your karma by going into the gap and coming out
again. This, of course, is done through the practice of meditation.

All actions are karmic episodes. Drinking a cup of coffee is a karmic episode. That action
generates memory, and memory has the ability or the potentiality to generate desire.
And desire generates action again. The operational software of your soul is karma, memory, and
desire. Your soul is a bundle of consciousness that has the seeds of karma, memory, and desire.
By becoming conscious of these seeds of manifestation, you become a conscious generator of
reality. By becoming a conscious choice-maker, you begin to generate actions that are evolutionary
for you and for those that are around you. And that’s all you need to do.
As long as karma is evolutionary — for both the Self and everyone affected by the Self —
then the fruit of karma will be happiness and success.
