Many instructions
about the laws of Nature are needed, in order to understand the entire beauty of the law of attraction which lies at the foundation
of Hierarchy. FW2 84.
The Ray of
intelligent love. This is the ray which embodies the highest vibration of which
our solar Logos or Deity is capable in this present solar system. It is not yet vibrating adequately nor has it yet attained
the peak of its activity. It is the basis of the cyclic spiral movement of the body logoic, and just as the Law of Economy
is the law governing the internal fires of the system so the cosmic Law of Attraction and Repulsion is the basic law of this
divine Ray. TCF 40.
In the widest
sense of the idea the Laws of Economy and of Synthesis are only divisions of that same cosmic law of which Attraction and
Repulsion are also manifestations. This cosmic law, demonstrating thus in a threefold manner, might (for lack of a better
term) be called the Law of Being, and is of a nature so incomprehensible to the finite mind of man that he can only sense
it partially through the aforesaid three branches. TCF 332.
Some perform
the work of the Destroyer of forms, and others carry on the work of cohering and of attracting; the work of the Destroyer
and of the Preserver is carried on under the Law of Attraction and Repulsion. TCF 79.
The basis
of attraction lies in the spatial current of identity. The one transmitting the
current arouses an identical current, and the vibration of the Cosmic Magnet responds to the propelled energy. FW1 285.
Attraction
and repulsion are therefore conditioning factors in our solar life, and this conditioning reaches us through Gemini. It is
the effect of a cosmic energy at present unknown to humanity. EA 352.
The principle
of attraction is based upon the Cosmic Magnet. The cohesion of parts and their
separation are subject to the very same law of attraction and to the principle of cosmic magnetism. Inf1 124.
It is magnetism,
radiation, attraction and repulsion. TCF 436.
In the widest
sense of the idea the Laws of Economy and of Synthesis are only divisions of that same cosmic law of which Attraction and
Repulsion are also manifestations. TCF 332.
The inner
working of the law of gravitation (or attraction and repulsion.) LOM 262.
Does not
the law of attraction move the striving particles. Is not the law of gravitation put in effect by the Highest Reason? When
people speak about harmonization they penetrate very little into the essence of the law itself. Cosmic creativeness contains
in itself the substance of the great Materia Matrix. Attraction is a property established for the expansion of Cosmos.
Therefore,
this law acts upon all planes, in spirit and in matter. The foundation of construction is established upon the manifestation
of the better possibilities, and the creativity of spirit proceeds under the same mighty law. Inf2 130.
The general
law, which produces cyclic effect, is the Law of Attraction and Repulsion, of which the subsidiary law is the Law of Periodicity,
and of Rebirth. TCF 275.
The karmic
conditions are being built upon the principle of attraction; and when the creativeness of life is understood but little the
karmic attraction assumes very ordinary dimensions. Hence, when the progress of a spirit is in step with the Cosmic Magnet,
the Cosmic Magnet leads the affirmed spirit to its foundation. Thus, the spiritual tie attracts the spirits closest to each
other. This law is immutable. Inf2 132.
Primarily,
nevertheless, it may be posited that the Law of Attraction is the demonstration of the powers of Spirit, whilst the Law of
Repulsion governs the form. Spirit attracts Spirit throughout the greater cycle. In lesser cycles, Spirit temporarily attracts
matter. The tendency of Spirit is to merge and blend with Spirit. Form repulses form, and thus brings about separation.
But - during
the great cycle of evolution - when the third factor of Mind comes in, and when the point of balance is the goal, the cyclic
display of the interaction between Spirit and form is seen, and the result is the ordered cycles of the planets, of a human
being, and of an atom. Thus, through repetition, is consciousness developed, and responsive faculty induced. When this faculty
is of such a nature that it is an inherent part of the Entity's working capital, it has to be exercised on every plane, and
again cyclic action is the law, and hence rebirth again and again is the method of exercise. TCF 276.
So strong
is the guiding principle of the Magnet that the forces which do not respond to the law of attraction are yet subservient to
it. Inf1 183.
It involves
a realization of the Laws of Attraction and Repulsion, of the magnetic interplay between all forms, great and small, of group
relationships, of the galvanizing power of the unifying life, and the attractive power of one unit upon another, be it atom,
man, or solar system. TCF 881.
The very
essence of the Cosmic Magnet is potentially so multiform that every principle enters into each of its manifested chains. All principles are based on attraction and are impelled by the power of the Cosmic
Magnet. Inf1 128.
This cosmic
law, demonstrating thus in a threefold manner, might (for lack of a better term) be called the Law of Being. TCF 332.
Cosmos is
maintained upon interrelations. The force of attraction is an acting power as well as the power of cohesion. Upon the basis
of the manifestation of attraction alone does the great law verily prevail. As material bodies act through the forces of attraction,
so the entire spiritual world exists by the same law. Inf2 27.
The appearance
of forms with their unique coloring, qualities and activities, the syntheses and fusions, the urges, instincts and aspirations,
the manifested loves and hates (as expressions of the great law of attraction and repulsion), the producing of civilizations,
of the sciences and arts in all their wonder and beauty, - all this is but the expression of the will-to-be of certain Beings
or Lives. EP2 28.
The great
affirmation imbues the entire space, and it is contained in the principle of attraction. All the laws are confirmed through
fiery attraction, and all cosmic principles are imbued with the unity of Fire. Full coordination effects full harmony, and
the attraction between particles belonging to one seed is powerfully imbued by the law of blending. Inf2 510.
Cosmic magnetism
collects all the highest aspects of cosmic attraction. The spirit responding
to the attraction in like measure will be that part of the Cosmic Reason. Inf1 129.
The cosmic
force moves in a spiral. With basic might, the Magnet propels forward in the spiral of the creative potential of energy. The
circular motion is highly strained during attraction to the generative source. Inf1 205.
Psychic energy
is also called "a magnet," and in such a definition there is much truth. Of course, the law of attraction and repulsion reacts
especially upon psychic energy. Without the cooperation of the energy it is impossible to observe positive and negative properties.
Therefore, a reminder about the magnet will be extremely goal-fitting when one wishes to emphasize the attraction of psychic
energy. AUM 474.
In fitting
the affirmation of cosmic law to the state and social order one should keep in mind the law of attraction, repulsion and cohesion.
All structures are subject to this same law. And people should be graded according to the composition of their auras. The
ray which unifies the manifestation of harmonious auras acquires the strength of augmented attraction, but inharmonious combinations
produce repulsion. The results of such combinations can be compared with gases. Just as non-cohesive molecules press against
the walls of a vessel, so are inharmonious auras mutually repelled, and the vessel which contains such gases may burst. FW3
66.
Attraction
multiplies force. AY 319.
The magnet
of the heart consists of the accumulations of thousands of years; in it is expressed Karma and attraction. FW3 372.
The attraction
of the magnet of the heart acts powerfully at a distance. FW3 375.
The very
realization of the magnet increases the attraction, focusing it upon intensification of currents. Inf1 intro.
Wherever
the attraction weakens, severance results. Inf1 120.
When the
energy of the heart swells with love and devotion the radiant spiral will leap out into space and, naturally, by the law of
attraction will meet the Teacher's ray. Heart 250.
The second
law is the Law of Attraction and Repulsion. Fundamentally, the law describes the compelling force of attraction that holds
our solar system to the Sirian; that holds our planets revolving around our central unit, the sun; that holds the lesser systems
of atomic and molecular matter circulating around a center in the planet; and that holds the matter of all physical plane
bodies, and that of the subtle bodies coordinated around their microcosmic center. TCF 568.
All luminaries
depend upon an attraction which is reciprocal. Understand that everything is held together by the Magnet of Cosmos! Inf1 130.
The higher
the sphere, the greater the power of attraction. Thus one can realize the power
of Cosmic Reason. The power increases according to the spheres. Inf1 132.
The realization
of equilibrium alone must direct humanity to the understanding of the great Cosmic Law. Only the union of Great Higher Forces
can produce equilibrium. For we know how the attraction of the Luminaries acts: their energies are reciprocally compressed.
FW3 64.
Intelligent
activity. All atoms show ability to select, to discriminate intelligently under the Law of Attraction and Repulsion. - S.
D., I, 295.
All molecules
move in conformity with the attraction; all spatial fires move in conformity with the attraction. It is the cosmic seed which attracts all atoms to itself. In
truth, each atom is a seed, but there are cosmic seeds. Thus, each luminary attracts
energies into its vortical rings and permeates them with its rays. Hence, the
Spatial fire is not uniform but of varying tensions and properties. In rotation, the luminaries attract and enfold the energies
in their orbits. Inf1 328.
Our co-workers,
in action, are distinguished from others by their flexibility and striving, and by their open-mindedness. The cosmic life
is built on attraction and repulsion, in other words, on rhythmic explosions and accumulations. The activity of Our co-workers
is not free from the laws of nature. It can be observed how activity builds the consciousness, and there should be no fear
of destruction by its explosions. One thing is unknown to Us — rest in inaction. AY 311.
In Cosmos
the center of striving rests upon the principle of Hierarchy. Cosmos acts by means of attraction to the manifested powerful
center. Thus the cosmic seed is manifested in each action of Hierarchy by the quality of the striving, which ascends through
realization of the predominant principle. AY 667.
Some people
are called bearers of happiness, some of unhappiness. Many examples and much evidence can be found. Let us assume that something
like this exists, and let us look at it from a psycho-physical point of view. In addition to karmic effects, there is something
that attracts or repels happiness. By a series of physical experiments, one can demonstrate that certain combinations of elements
will determine the degrees of attraction and repulsion.
The stronger
the presence of the basic energy in people, the more positive will be their effect. If this main element is fire, then the
other needed elements will be drawn like moths toward the light. This means that even success can be revealed and measured
in physical terms, and it is useful to know one's own essence. AY 485.
Remember
the laws of gravitation and repulsion, action and counteraction. Steadfastness results from attraction, and tension from repulsion.
Attraction along the line of Hierarchy leads to Me, and repulsion from the enemy to glorification. Thus, the Teacher and the
enemy are cornerstones. AY 656.
Idiosyncrasies
are inexplicable attractions or repulsions, and they appear as trustworthy evidences of reincarnation. No one can explain
otherwise these irresistible feelings. It is vain to try to show them to be the effects of atavism, because it is possible
to trace their independence of ancestral habits. The special force of such attraction shows that they are deeply implanted
in a given individual. They are so firmly fixed in the consciousness that even hypnosis cannot overcome them.
But if in
individual cases the changes of lives were to be examined, then the attraction or repulsion would be found to be a natural
effect of what has gone before. Thus, it is especially instructive to observe such inborn symptoms. They reveal both the capacities
of the man and the kind of surroundings that are most favorable for him. Let us not forget that each plant needs its own soil;
so, too, in the life of man, indispensable are the circumstances which are natural and peculiar to him. Let those who rule
learn how to arrange the human garden. Bro 163.
Lacking the
correct coordination of attraction and repulsion, insignificant thoughts form, as it were, ugly conglomerates and pollute
space. We call them spatial slime. Much energy is wasted in transmuting these stillborn monsters. One can imagine how greatly
spatial production could be increased were it not for these progenies of men. FW1 549.
One may wonder
at times why and how people can meet again after many incarnations. There are many reasons for this, but the principal one
is the Cosmic Magnet. One may notice that people are attracted precisely through a sense of karma; nothing can hold back the
debtor. But earthly concepts make it difficult to coordinate Infinity with the manifestation of karma. How great must be the
attraction in order to hold such divergent energies in conformity! Moreover, one side will always try to escape, but the law
will lead it to the immutable realization of inevitability. In this one can observe a psychic attraction that only proves
the oneness of the basic law. FW1 640.
A cosmic
vortex, which propels energies through powerful agitations, may be compared with a strong magnet the power of which creates
through various actions. Energies which are gathered by a saturated vortex are distributed according to the poles of attraction.
The width of application of this law of attraction to the various assignments of man in all the Worlds is immeasurable. Just
as man is attracted to certain kindred on the Earth, in the spiritual World he is attracted by a vortex created by his own
actions.
It is difficult
to free oneself from a Cosmic vortex, therefore it is needful to direct the human consciousness to the inexorable laws. Mastery
of Karma and of the laws of life requires true understanding of the Cosmic Vortex. Space consists of these vibrations, eternally
moving in the spiral of the vortex. FW3 151.
Each vital
attraction or repulsion creates its own spiral. FW3 283.
The attraction
of all conformities takes place when all fiery currents are aflame. It is necessary to accept the law of counteraction as
a stimulus of creativeness; the stimulus which intensifies each construction. Attraction of spirit is developed precisely
by the fiery tension of all forces. In fact, each inscription in space can enter into life as magnetic opposition to the forces
of darkness. FW3 212.
Spatial fires
are subject to the law of attraction of the Heart of the World. Subtle is the world of manifested attractions, and each wave
of attraction assembles new combinations from the energies propelled toward union. Therefore the Heart of the World creates
quick conjunctions. There are so many fiery attractions in the Cosmos! FW3 281.
Therefore
we have (during a period of Attraction and Repulsion, or a life cycle) that which we call Time and Space, and this holds equally
true in the life cycle of a Logos or an ant, or a crystal. There are cycles of activity in matter, due to some energizing
Will, and then Time and space are known. There are cycles of non-being when Time and Space are not, and the energizing Will
is withdrawn. But we must not forget that this is purely relative, and only to be considered from the standpoint of the particular
life or entity involved, and the special stage of awareness reached. All must be interpreted in terms of consciousness.
The first
type of cycle, or the period involved in one entire revolution of a sphere around its own center of consciousness, is to the
particular Entity involved (be he God or man) a lesser cycle. The second type of cycle or the period involved in the complete
circling of an orbit, or the revolution of a sphere around the center of which it is an integral part, we can consider as
a greater cycle. The third type of cycle has not so much to do with the transition of the form through a certain location
in space but as the cycle which includes both the greater and the lesser cycles. It has to do with the response of the ENTITY,
to Whom our solar Logos is but a center in His Body, to the contacts made on that center and on its cosmic opposite. These
two centers, for instance, our solar system and its cosmic opposite, in their interaction create a cycle period which has
a relation to the "ONE WHO IS ABOVE OUR LOGOS." This is, of course; beyond human conception, but must be included in our enumeration
of cycles if exactitude is to be achieved. TCF 284.
Below, an
interesting lesson from M Hilarion with certain affinity to the Law of Atrraction. JPC.
THE LAW OF
BALANCE
LESSON 9
It is a source of
pain to me at times to be compelled to witness your impatience at the ignorance of your brothers
and sisters who have not as yet had equal opportunities for accumulating knowledge ; as well as your unwillingness,
often, to convey information to them : There are among your number those who are intellectually incapable of grasping
intricate problems or technical terms of expression, but who may be far above you
in true spiritual progress. Such, through . their inability to correlate those lines of
thought which lead eventually ; to the understanding of fundamental laws
of life and its phenomena, or to grasp such natural illustrations
as lie all around them, without : help, would sincerely appreciate any
effort toward their enlightenment. You cannot give a casual glance around any field of nature without
resting your eyes upon hundreds of objects which furnish perfect similes for the
illustration of any phase of natural law. The fields of motion and of vibration seem the most obscure, and are difficult
of exploration to many of our otherwise well advanced students, who
are just entering upon the study of universal (that is, natural) phenomena,
from the occultist's point of view ; and, in giving you the following simple illustration, I am but doing what any one of
the older students is quite competent to undertake, if willing
to turn his attention to the needs of his younger brothers.
You have
all observed the motion of a perfectly balanced plank, with a person standing upon the middle, having a foot on either side
of the balancing point, while imparting an equal amount of force alternately
with each foot. The longer the board, the more time is required
to lift each end to the highest point it can reach. Each of the ends would be negative to the
positive center of balance when horizontally at rest ; but each end
would manifest both positive and negative aspects when in motion, according
to its ascent or descent. The entire board would have a certain mode of motion imparted to it by the
person representing the generating force, but it would also have its own peculiar mass motion-that
is, the motion of its own interior mass ; and each molecule of the board would have its own
particular vibration entirely independent of every other molecule.
The
board would be in one sense dead ; that is, its power of growth would be cut off, but its molecules would
be alive. Now imagine that the board continues in that position, constantly generating
force for an indefinite length of time, and that you can see the inner forces that sustain and keep intact [TT 23] the molecules
of the board ; you would perceive the molecules contracting and their vibrations rapidly increasing, each drawing into its
own centre all the living forces that make it a separate molecule, while its sheaths-its physical
forms-would disintegrate gradually, leaving nothing to be seen by even
the most powerful microscope. If your vision could reach to a
still higher plane, you would see that all of the individual centres
of the various molecules had become part of one substance of a
finer grade, for they would have reached the plane of the atom,
which is the plane of the indivisible.
Space is
the result of expansion. Time is the result of the action of the laws of attraction and repulsion-motion per se-and must be
taken into account in this illustration.
During
this hypothetical time (say of one thousand years), the process of
disintegration in the body of the person standing on the board would
be gradually consummated, the board would decrease in weight and would disintegrate; and, finally,
while the board might retain a semblance of form, there would come a time when its motion would become so rapid
as to render the board indistinguishable from the person, or generator of the force ; the person and the board would seem
as one object ; and, if it were possible to increase the motion still more, they would disappear from sight altogether, and
only be visible on an inner plane.
In
more than one sense this illustration is a correct correspondence of this
age ; of its creative powers, and of motion and vibration in whole and in part.
As one end
of the board requires an appreciable length of time to fall, and to receive an impulse from the earth which it contacts, thus
enabling it to rise again, so every age or cycle requires
a corresponding time, and must receive an upward impulse from the negative
force of the preceding cycle. While its matter, its humanity, and all its forces are at or near this negative point, all partake
of the dark side of life, and can only give the impulse to rise again by united endeavor. The key-note of motion and vibration
is raised while on the upward sweep of the cycle, with every succeeding age.
The law of correspondences holds good throughout the universe, and on all planes of Being.
The fact
of the Group Soul is widely contradicted by those not yet able to understand that all life
is a series of groupings. From the animalcule to the man, each
organism, each individual organ, is a group of a distinct grade
in the universal scale of living substance, subject to and brought into form by its peculiar
rate of vibration. For instance, that which is now, or has been, the
heart in every animal form in manifestation, was composed primarily of one form of energy, which, [TT 24]
by the laws of chemical affinity united with another or higher form of energy, to produce
or evolve a third form of energy which may be termed the
universal heart. This form lies latent in every molecule of physical
substance ; and, as each molecule of matter is combine ; with another and still another, this
sometime latent energy awakens and is also combined with another form of the same energy, and event eventually manifests as
the physical heart of some low form of life. When the matter composing this lower form of heart has been cast off, the energy
remains on the astral plane awaiting its next manifestation in higher form.
Every
organic centre is a god in embryo, a dual manifestation From a nucleolus
to a god, one feminine cell must be impregnated by a masculine cell in order to manifest on
any of the lower planes, although the process of impregnation differs in nearly all planes of
life. TT. Hilarion.
