The important thing to bear in mind, while practicing affirmations, is that because the mind has a tendency to use words while thinking, it is helpful to use them in such a way as to uplift the mind in cooperation with divine inspiration.

Here are some points to remember while you repeat uplifting word-phrases and melodies during the day:

To engender manifestation of any desire, you have to focus all your energies on it. The rays of the shining sun when focused through the magnifying glass can cause the paper to burn up, not otherwise. This focus is crucial especially if the goal is the Divine One. While other desires may get fulfilled, the Divine One still tends to stay elusive. Ever silent and ever-present, the Lord seeks to see if we are willing to be pleased and satisfied with His little gifts or if we are willing to find our true happiness only in the realisation of His Cosmic consciousness.

What is the Law of Attraction?

Law of attraction has many different labels, "Success consciousness", "Law of Magnetism", "Power of Thought" etc.

What it says is; all your thoughts, all images in your mind, and all the feelings connected to your thoughts will later manifest as your reality. In other words; everything you have in your life - now - has been attracted to you thru your mind.

This means that both the things you are happy with and those you are not - is your own creation.

Most importantly it means; you can from now on create your life consciously. You can start attracting only those circumstances that creates happiness for you - and leave out those you do not desire.

As The Law of Attraction is the most important law in the universe - there is a lot to say about it! Here you will find over 100 links to articles related to the Law of Attraction sorted under different topics. Indulge in all the knowlwdge and inspiration and learn how to become your own Creator!

Now that you have become aware of the power inherent in affirmations and of the potency with which they can influence individual lives, you would not be wrong in regarding them as virtually magical! They are wondrous - like so much else in life. Through affirmations much can be accomplished easily; objectives that would otherwise seem like an arduous uphill task.

Nevertheless, there are certain pointers one ought to know and remember. Firstly, affirmations should not be used negatively or for negative ends. Secondly, there comes a time when you need to rise above shortsighted affirmations and broaden your horizons - ultimately giving in to the Spirit of surrender.

The world today suffers more from emotional and mental turmoil than from anything else. In fact, it is just the partial truth. Almost all suffering and most problems have emotional base. For instance, it is well known that emotionally disturbed people are more prone to accidents than others.

David Spangler writes: As man continues to grow in his recognition of what is within himself, he will increasingly realise that the creative source of his world is indeed in his own consciousness... When man knows the reality of the power within his consciousness to create inner changes, then he can make those personal changes, knowing that they will be positively reflected in his environment.

Within our hearts is the child that longs for Alladin's lamp, wherefrom the genie will pop out and grant us our every wish.

If we would only care to take a deeper look within ourselves, we might just find Alladin's lamp after all. Of course, the fulfillment of our wishes may not be as rapid as the twinkling of our eyes, but we may well be our own genie.

Miracles happen if only we let them. The entire manifestation of existence is one big miracle. The flower, the ocean, the fact that you read this are all simple manifestations of His one eternal miracle.

The power of the mind is so tremendous, that if we use it properly even the deadliest of diseases can and have been cured. This truth has been known and observed for many years now.

Modern research experimenting with diverse healing systems cites numerous examples of cures of even deadly diseases such as cancer and AIDS by attuning the mind to positive thoughts and changing one's lifestyle to a simple and harmonious one.

We limit ourselves by limited thinking. Many a times, our beliefs follow long habituated patterns of established behavior. We need to, at times, raise our level of thinking by affirming to ourselves, the universal abundance and positive influences... thereby dispersing our cloudy belief-patterns into a fresh downpour of creative abundance!

By choosing to curb the babble of untruth, both inner and outer, by listening to the guidance from within and following the path of what we find most spiritually nurturing, we open a channel of abundance, blocked only by our limited thinking.

Affirmation is only the first step to self-healing. We must do our human part. Without additional power from God, however, our efforts are forever incomplete. Affirmation, in other words, should end with prayer.

Why should one pray only after repeating the affirmations? Why not before? Prayer is always good, certainly. But if it isn't uttered with an affirmative consciousness, it can easily become weak and beggarly: a plea that God do all the work, without man's active participation. Effective prayer is never passive. It is full of faith. It matures in an attitude of affirmation.

Transforming anger is a powerful step that will create positive changes in our relationships with others.

A pre-requisite to surrendering to love is to release anger. This is very important since anger can be one of the most challenging emotions to transform. In the "fight/flight response" duo - anger is the 'fight' part just as fear is the 'flight' part.

To claim that affirmations or any similar technique can lead us to enlightenment would be presumptuous. However, what can be attempted is a step towards the calming of one's mind, and internally and externally manifesting certain other aids which in turn help in spiritual progress and life in general.

Deep in the heart there is hope that there is someone out there who is the 'right one' for you.

Loneliness is a hunger born deep in the heart. It is reflective of the inner need and eagerness to seek fulfillment and completeness. As human beings mature into adults, they consciously become more and more aware of their heart's inner despondency and strive to satiate it through various means. The most prominent way of course is by relating to others.

We are what we choose to be. Man has access to all the gifts given by Existence. Yet life on earth for many is one of want and deprivation. There are people living below relative poverty lines, and there are those who are overwhelmed by their excesses in wealth. Why these differences? Is it that God is partial and kind to one at the cost of another?

No! Relative differences arise because one believes that the abundance of the earth is for him to reach out and access, while the poverty-torn person unconsciously and continuously re-affirms his / her poverty-consciousness.

"Happiness," Aristotle said, "depends upon ourselves."

I care less about the gross national product and more about the gross national happiness.

Jigme Singye Wangchuk, King of Bhutan

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

Most religious teachings aver that one can do nothing to uplift oneself: One can only wait for God's grace to descend. Other teachings aver the opposite - that man must do the whole work of upliftment himself, without the benefit of grace.

Paramhansa Yogananda brought these two teachings together into a harmonious whole. He explained that we should use "our own, but God-given power". God, in other words, doesn't do all the work for us, but neither can we do it all alone.

When we are caught in anger, we are always cutting ourselves off from the bigger picture and from a sense of our basic connectedness. If we could see our angry emotional reactions clearly, it would become obvious that they deplete us and narrow our life.

We would see how they are aversions to life, how they separate us and keep us closed. Yet, in spite of the fact that we hurt ourselves and others with our anger, we hold on to this restricting emotion with a puzzling tenacity.

A human being is not a scarecrow with a head and body full of straw. A human being is an embodiment and channel of God's light and power. Yet there are times when confidence runs low, and we do not feel quite up to the mark. While this happens to the best of us at times, some people who live by a defeatist attitude all the time. This is not just undesirable but detrimental to one's psychological and spiritual growth.

The important point to be noted is that it is changeable.

Addictions are not formed overnight. An addiction connotes a mental habit of becoming attached to something on which you have become dependent. We commonly think of drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, coffee etc. to be objects of addiction.

However, a habit can be as addictive; be it playing cards, sex, watching TV, gossiping, or anything else that you cannot help but do. If for some reason you are unable to indulge in the habit or activity to which you are addicted, it leads to tremendous discomfort, frustration, anger, or even unbearable physical pain (as in drug addiction).
