Law of Attraction

by

the-secretI can’t help wondering if there IS a Law of Attraction. When we look at how much the quantum reality depends on consciousness to trigger the probability collapse into a coherent state, when the implications of entanglement are taken up, (and I am by no means promoting myself as expert in these areas) it seems to me that rather than a Law, it is a matter of what we allow ourselves to actually see or experience.

I hold the view that our senses are NOT things which enable us - rather they are limits. We can see, but only a fraction of a line infinitely long, we can hear a tiny amount of what sound can offer, we smell (well some do) only a fraction of what animals can achieve etc.

If the Universe is a hologram, some kind of image of a real reality in which we partake as active contributors by perceiving it, then our perceptions are crucial to how it unfolds. We’ve all seen this because we live in a society.

Two people are in identical situations, with the exact same things happening to them – perhaps colleagues side by side in a workplace, or neighbours on the same street. One person will moan and groan about their fate, seeing the worst of events, able to predict with almost uncanny vision how all the events are going to make things worse for him.

The other one will see the same things happening but sees them in a more positive light, able to bounce back and find new paths through the exact same situations. The only things different in the two situations are their views of things, yet they have very different experiences from the same circumstances.

Can we really say these two people are living in the same reality?
