A Comment on Law of Attraction

"Law of Attraction is talking about the same thing, just in a more limited way you might say.  Lots of people and traditions have felt and sensed 'how things work' in creation, and have tried to talk about it as best they can from their perspective.  In the first lines of 'The Dhammapada' Buddha says, 'The experience of life is created by mind.  Thought preceeds experience.' Understanding that and trying to figure out how to use that 'law' to your benefit is the point of this kind of investigation and practice.

Whether it 'works' for someone or not is a whole other subject, with many variables.  On the other hand, it is working perfectly for everyone all the time -- it is what creates the life you now have.  Changing your thought/fear/desire mix will have a long-term effect on how your life unfolds, but may not get you the new car you tried to 'manifest' in the time period you've alloted before deciding it doesn't work."
