Cause and Effect – Think2wice

The study and deliberate application of the Law of Attraction can take us a long way–from that faint vision of our heart’s desire to its achievement in the here and now. What was once only an intangible dream can be made real through faith and action. A definite method exists; one practiced by wise men and women through the ages. Through this process, we may not only achieve our goals but also awaken to our essential nature.

However, anyone who has reached for a goal will likely tell us this: Along the path of achievement, there will be many unexpected twists and turns. There will be hills to climb and valleys to forge; there will be days that seem darker than the night; there will be times when our doubt is strong and our faith is weak; when we wonder Why did I even start? It’s at times such as these–when the world seems braced against us, and our dreams beyond our reach–that we may consider ourselves very rich, indeed, if we can call on that friend.

Who is that friend? A soul that wishes us only good health, happiness, and fortune; an individual who wishes to take nothing, but eagerly offers meaningful encouragement, honest opinion, and good wishes; a person who goes that extra mile in kindness, and generosity. Most of us realize the importance of having a mentor–someone who has bravely led the way and achieved what we desire to achieve; but to have a friend who believes in us and our dreams is equally invaluable. What, though, if we don’t have such a friend?

All is not lost. There’s still something of great importance that we may do. We can be that person for an acquaintance, colleague, or so-called stranger. What goals do they desire? And how can we help them achieve them? What trials are they going through? And how can we help them surmount them? As ye sow, so shall ye reap. We may be that friend. It’s in everyone’s best interest to do so.

Dare to dream (and care for one another).

From Three Magic Words, written by the gifted New Thought author U.S. Andersen, I offer the following quote: Inherent in every cause is its exact result, for effect is nothing but cause moving through space and time. Please read those words again slowly, giving them the contemplation which they deserve. When fully grasped, the concept may be the key through which we unlock understanding of our true nature, and also the means to achieve our goals.

Think: What if we realized our power? What if we knew our true nature, of being so much more than flesh and bones? And what if we realized that every step we made was leading us closer to the realization of our dreams? What if we knew, with unwavering faith, that cause and effect were intimately linked; so much, in fact, that they could be called one? What if we realized that to imagine a desire was as good as creating it whole, complete, and manifest? And, as U.S. Andersen expressed, that only space and time separated us from experiencing its reality here and now?

The concept of cause and effect being one, not two, is not unique. It’s similar to an esoteric teaching called the Principle of Polarity, which states that everything is dual. Right/left; up/down; east/west. This concept may be more easily understood through a familiar example: Heat and cold, it’s taught, are not opposites but poles, or extremes, of one thing called heat; the only difference being that of degree. We are figuratively asked to look at a thermometer and state where heat begins and cold ends, or vice versa. Of course this is impossible, for such is relative.

The implications of this understanding are tremendous. Think: What fears could assail us if we knew the truth of this promise? What mountain could we not scale or move? With U.S. Andersen’s quote in mind, we would know that our goal was already manifest; and that our vision, faith, and persistence is the price we must pay to claim it!

We might also remember this: First cause is always mental. Physical outcome (the effect) is always secondary. Most, if not all, of our worries and problems arise because we assume that our life is a reflection of the outer; when, in fact, circumstances are but a reflection of the inner. It’s from within, where our true nature shines most brightly, that we access the power and potential to decree what will manifest in our life.

Dare to dream (and care for one another).
