What are Universal Laws?
The Invisible Forces Guiding your Life
Ever wondered what invisible strings are pulling the events in our lives? The harmonious bloom of a flower, the mesmerising orbits of planets, the ebb and flow of the tides, our personal growth, and even our deepest struggles – is there an unseen principle guiding it all? The answer lies within the Universal Laws. If you have heard about the Universal Laws, yet don't quite grasp the concept, or how they apply to your daily life, I hope this brief overview will give you a greater understanding and provoke you to delve deeper. Personally I think the Universal Laws are absolutely fascinating. They mesh the deep and thought-provoking with everyday conversation. It's a mix of inspiring scientific sophistication and down-to-earth relevance, intriguingly blurring the lines and bringing the metaphysical to the mainstream. It's like watching stars line up – just as captivating, with a touch of mystique brought right to our doorstep.
The Subtle, Yet Powerful Universal Laws
“The only law that matters is the law of the universe”
– author unknown
It may seem like a bold statement, yet it perfectly encapsulates the essence of Universal Laws.
Universal Laws aren't merely spiritual concepts. They are fixed principles, governing the subtle mechanics of our universe, as well as our lives. Often unseen, they continually shape our experiences.
Do you recall any instances where you felt an unseen law at work in your life?
Lets delve a little deeper.
The Big Three: Law of Attraction, Vibration, and Correspondence
While there are several Universal Laws, three stand out in their ‘everywhere-ness' and influence: the Law of Attraction, the Law of Vibration, and the Law of Correspondence.
The Law of Attraction states that like attracts like. Our thoughts and feelings send out a frequency that, in turn, attracts experiences of a similar frequency. This is why optimism often brings joy, while pessimism can lead to undesirable outcomes.
“When we focus on what we want versus what we don't want, it will show up in our life”
-Kaiser.
The Law of Vibration, often mentioned by spiritual leaders like Eckhart Tolle, states that everything in the universe, from the smallest particle to the mightiest galaxy, is in a state of vibration. This vibration resonates with similar frequencies, shaping our realities in profound ways.
The Law of Correspondence conceives that our outer world is a reflection of our inner world, affirming the wisdom of the ancient truth
‘As within, so without' or as you'll hear me say often, Divine Within, Within Divine
Have you noticed these laws in action in your daily life? If so, how have they influenced your experiences?
Discovering the World of Universal Laws Through “The Secret”
You may remember when Rhonda Byrne's The Secret was released? This documentary focussed on the Law of Attraction and featured snippets of wisdom from spiritual thought leaders such as John Assaraf, Lisa Nichols, Bob Proctor and Michael Bernard Beckwith. It exploded onto the scene and was the first glimpse for many of the Universal Laws. I must admit, while “The Secret” was eye-opening, it was not without its shortcomings. Some critics argue that it oversimplifies the laws of attraction, creating a deceptive illusion that positive thinking alone is enough to manifest dreams into reality. I, too, saw these gaps in the narrative but chose to see it as an initiation rather than an all-encompassing guide.
It was evident that the documentary had painted a somewhat one-sided picture, focusing predominantly on material gains and under emphasising the importance of action in the manifestation process. However, despite these shortcomings, “The Secret” served as a valuable springboard. It piqued my interest and sparked a burning desire to delve deeper into the realm of Universal Laws. This adventure began with understanding the intertwined relationship between our thoughts, emotions, and the universe at large. A journey that has led me to discover at least 52 Universal Laws, like Vibration, Correspondence, and Cause and Effect, enriching my life in countless ways and instilling in me a newfound sense of empowerment. Now, I feel an overwhelming sense of excitement in sharing these revelations with you, in the hopes that they might spark the same transformative journey in your life as they have in mine.
Just like me, many others have embodied these Universal Laws, resulting in significant life changes. Consider Oprah Winfrey, who attributes her success to the Law of Attraction, or Elon Musk, who leverages the Law of Action to bring his revolutionary visions to life.
Universal Laws Today
The awareness of Universal Laws is expanding beyond spiritual circles, permeating various sectors, from personal development to entrepreneurship. The recent trend of mindfulness practices echoes the principles of these laws, showing the importance of our inner world in shaping our outer reality.
The Pandemic has been a challenging time for us all, and interestingly, we are witnessing a resurgence of people seeking wisdom from Universal Laws. In a world turned upside-down, many have found solace and empowerment in these timeless principles. (Maybe we just enjoyed BE-ing at home, escaping the BIZi-ness and found time to sit and reflect?)
The laws offer a framework for understanding life's trials and tribulations and, more importantly, a roadmap to inner peace and success. From manifesting health and prosperity to fostering positive relationships, these ancient yet dynamic laws seem to have gained fresh relevance in our new-normal world. They're providing a hope in these uncertain times. New Thought, Ancient Wisdom.

-Kumar
How can Universal Laws impact my life?
Understanding and applying Universal Laws can significantly influence your life. They can guide your actions, shape your experiences, and help you align with your life's purpose, personal growth and spiritual development. It's like having an inner guidance system.
I grew up in a Christian household and adhere to the 10 Commandments. Controversially, I suppose, I liken it to the 10 Commandments, but with a scientific explanation blended with spiritual guidance – The how, what, where, when of our existence and daily living in this world.
