The Law of Vibration and Attraction
〃Any idea that is held in the mind
that is either feared or revered will; begin at once
to clothe itself in the most convenient
and appropriate physical forms available。〃
… Andrew Carnegie
Dr。 Wernher von Braun
In an interview held with Dr。 Wernher von Braun in
February of 1976; Dr。 von Braun was quoted as follows: 〃After
years of probing the spectacular mysteries of the universe; I
have been led to a firm belief in the existence of God。 The
grandeur of the cosmos serves only to confirm my belief in the
certainty of a creator。 I just cannot envision this whole
universe coming into being without something like divine will。
The natural laws of the universe are so precise that we have
no difficulty building a spaceship to fly to the moon and can
time the flight with the precision of a fraction of a second。
These laws must have been set by somebody。〃 Dr。 von Braun
went on to say; that 〃science〃 and 〃religion;〃 properly
understood; are not antagonistic pursuits。 On the contrary; he
affirmed; they are 〃sister disciplines。〃 Through the scientific
method; one learns more about 〃creation;〃 whereas; by virtue
of the study of religion; one gains a greater insight into the
〃creator。〃 By employing the tools of science; man attempts to
harness the forces of nature which surround him; through
religion; on the other hand; he endeavors to control the 〃forces
of nature;〃 which are at work within him。 After a brief pause;
he added; 〃There would not be a single great accomplishment
in the history of mankind without faith 。。。 Any person who
strives to accomplish something needs a degree of faith in
himself and when he takes on a challenge that requires more
and more moral strength than he can muster; he needs faith
in God。〃
Years before anyone would accept the idea of a man
traveling to the moon and back; Dr。 von Braun was asked;
〃What would it take to make a rocket to reach the moon。〃 He
replied simply; 〃The will to do it。〃 von Braun was; clearly; a
brilliant man who possessed a great understanding of life and
a tremendous awareness of the laws of the universe。 In fact;
he is considered; by many experts in the field; to be the
〃Father〃 of the space program。 Like all great achievers; he had
gained a profound insight into the 〃spiritual〃 laws of life; and
one of those laws is the Law of Attraction。 This is the law I
would like to delve into now。
Indeed; an understanding of this particular law is
actually the key to understanding this entire book。 The reason
this is so; is that 〃The Law of Attraction〃 is the underlying
principle which governs the level of your personal prosperity。
However; to help you achieve a really solid grasp of this
concept; it will be necessary for us to focus briefly on another
law; namely; the 〃Law of Vibration。〃
The Law of Vibration accounts for the difference between
mind and matter; between the physical and the nonphysical
worlds。
According to the Law of Vibration; we postulate that
everything vibrates or moves; nothing sits idle。 Everything is in
a constant state of motion; and therefore; there is no such
thing as 〃inertia〃; or a state of rest。 From the most ethereal; to
the most gross form of matter; everything is in a constant state
of vibration。
Moving from the lowest to the highest degree of vibration;
we discover there are literally millions upon millions of
intervening levels or degrees; from the electron to the universe;
everything is in vibratory motion。 (Energy is manifested in all
the varying degrees of vibration。)
〃Rates of vibration〃 are called 〃frequencies;〃 and the
higher the frequency; the more potent the force。 Since thought
is one of the highest forms of vibration; it is very potent in
nature and therefore; it must be understood by all of us。
Now; the Law of Vibration may be explained in many
different ways; depending upon the purpose for which it is
being explained。 In this chapter; however; it is our intention to
confine our inquiry to thoughts alone; so we may thereby
improve our understanding of the Law of Attraction。
Vibration
To vibrate means: 〃to move backwards and forwards; to
oscillate; to shake; to quiver; to swing; to waver; to cause to
quiver。〃
To obtain a more graphic conceptualization of the idea of
Vibration; just stretch out one of your arms straight in front of
you。 Then hold it perfectly still。 While you are holding it still
and are unable to perceive any motion in that arm at all; know
that the electrons which compose the arm; are moving;
shaking; quivering; or vibrating; at the rate of 186;300 miles
per second。
The arm appears still to you; but in reality it is in a
constant state of motion。 Of course; although such motion is
imperceptible to the naked eye; under a high…powered
microscope it would become very apparent; indeed。
Now; begin to shake your arm。 You; yourself; are now
causing the arm to vibrate。 It was already vibrating of its own
accord; in obedience to the Law of Vibration (which teaches
that everything is in constant motion)。 But you have stepped
up; or increased; the rate of that vibration。 You have pushed
down on the vibratory accelerator pedal; as it were。
Positive And Negative Personalities
〃The mind in itself and in its own place
can make a hell out of heaven
or a heaven out of hell。〃
… John Milton
People; as a rule; can be classified as positive
personalities (optimists) or negative personalities (pessimists)。
Those individuals who are positive in their thoughts
always tend to look upon the brighter side of life。 With their
faces turned toward the sunshine; they attempt to see the
good; even in the bad。 Such individuals habitually think
thoughts of a positive nature and they are a blessing to the
world。 They are in a 〃Positive Vibration;〃 and therefore attract
other positive personalities to them。
Negative personalities; on the other hand; habitually look
upon the dark; gloomy; and depressing side of life。 Even the
good holds some bad for them。 They dwell on the bad and the
negative。 They think about it; anticipate it; expect it; and
invariably they receive what they have been seeking。 Due to
the negative vibration which they keep themselves in; they of
course attract other miserable personalities to them。 As you
are already aware; 〃misery loves company。〃
Their state of mind can be compared to the person who;
upon being asked how he felt; said;
〃I feel alright today; but I might feel bad tomorrow。〃
Negative personalities are depressing to everyone around
them。 Their faces take on the expression; in physical form; of
the negative thoughts which they are holding in their minds。
Each day; one can observe such individuals passing on the
street。 No cheer; no joy radiates from them…just gloom; frowns
and hostility。 Having created their own hell for themselves;
they seem to enjoy wallowing in it。
The law of Polarity and Relativity states that for every
positive there is an equal and opposite negative。 Therefore;
both of these personality types are necessary; so you can
develop the awareness to distinguish one from the other; and
in that manner; choose the one which will advance you in life。
You do have Free Will。 You can choose which of these two
personality types you wish to adopt。 Therefore; if a person is
constantly negative; but tires of that state; the person may;
through awareness and proper effort; change himself into a
positive personality type of individual。
Understand this…The Law of Vibration will give people the
awareness they require; to make the personality changes they
desire。
The Brain … The Body
The human body; believe it or not; is one of the most
efficient electrical instruments in this entire universe。 The
human brain; similarly; is probably the most efficient electrical
instrument ever created。 Both are truly marvels。
The brain is the part of the body where all manner of
frequencies are transformed from one frequency level into
another。 In the brain; for example; sensations are transformed
into muscular action。 Sound; heat; light and thought are also;
each in their turn; transformed into other frequencies; each
affecting the body。
Within the brain there are centers which control and
regulate the functioning of all organs and parts of the body。 By
means of the proper stimulation of these centers; the
functioning of the organs may thereby be controlled。 In our
seminars; we refer to this phenomenon as the vibratory control
of the body。
In the final analysis; the brain is simply a vibratory
instrument。 To begin to understand its functioning you must
undertake the study of the Law of Vibration。
Since the early 1940's; we have had at our disposal the
EEG (electroencephalograph); which reads the electrical
activity of the brain; and the ECG (electrocardiograph); which
traces the electrical changes which occur during heart
contractions。
Therefore; vibrations are certainly not something which
are new to us。 Indeed;
