In a discussion forum I facilitate, we’ve been discussing Universal Laws. It seems there are many variations and versions of what is a spiritual or universal law. I’d love to know what you think makes the list! Also, what experience in your life has helped you understand these laws?
Here’s what I’ve come up with as my initial list of the key Laws (and I’d appreciate your feedback on it, what’s missing, the order of importance, etc.):
I’m defining a “Law” as an unseen, unchangeable, unbreakable force that produces results predictably, reliably, and consistently, regardless of awareness or understanding of it (as in the Law of Gravity in the physical world). These Laws are all based on my understanding of the Universe as vibration, energy/consciousness.
- The Law of One–we are all connected; there is no beginning or end; energy/consciousness cannot be created or destroyed only transmuted
- The Law of Love–there is only love; all else is a distortion or contrast with love, much in the way that there is no source of darkness, just light and things that block the light
- The Law of Forgiveness (Grace)–a higher law than that of Karma; we can receive grace without deserving it or without an action that attracts it
- The Law of Attraction–like attracts like; opposites repel
- The Law of Allowing (Non-resistance)–one of the apparent paradoxes of the spiritual realm; in order to “get” something we have to stop “trying” to get it
- The Law of Cause and Effect (Karma)–the physical world is the “effect” and the spiritual realm is the “cause”
- The Law of Correspondence–”as above, so below”
- The Law of Duality–in physical manifestation, there is always an apparent opposite of each idea, such as male-female, have-lack, darkness-light; there is a kind of mirror-image correspondence with an idea in the higher dimension and its manifestation in the physical world (e.g., the paradox of giving to receive, letting go to have)
- The Law of Periodocity–cycles, rhythms, (e.g., the Seven Year Cycle of the body’s rejuvenation)
- The Law of Balance (Equilibrium)–all things tend to return to a natural state of balance and equilibrium.
So, for me, an illustration of the Law of Love might be a story about a mother whose baby is pinned under a huge boulder and she is somehow able to lift the boulder to save the child’s life…does this make sense?
