Law of Attraction Myth Series:

Asking

 

 

Asking is a concept advocated in law of attraction circles. The idea goes that you must first "ask" the universe what it is that you want. You cannot help but ask as it is something that happens by default anyway. However, there are some "types" of asking which don't lead to manifestation. The aim below is to address these concerns:
 
1. There are certain things you shouldn't ask for.
 
For example:
 
a) Asking for a specific other person against their will. People have free will, so just because you want them, doesn't mean that they want you. That is not to say that you cannot have a specific person. It is just that the process of manifesting a relationship with a specific person who doesn't want it, lacks manifestation power.
 
b) Asking for a specific very large sum of money. Asking for small sums of money and manifesting is easy, because by default, money will come into your life anyway if you have a source of income. However, asking for very large sums of money (e.g. $100 million) is on the wrong track. Money is a man made lie which has been completely made up by people. You must only rely on your natural Laws of Mind resources, such as vision, passion, discipline, momentum, efficiency etc. To state you want a large sum of money, is to create a limit which doesn't exist.
 
Remember: money is man made and made up. To state you want a specific sum of money is creating a limit on money, not to mention that money is a made up limited thing. This means you are creating double fake barriers in your mind which don't exist in natural reality.
 
2. You must not ask for something from your egotistical desire
 
Asking for a life of luxury leads to no manifestation or momentum towards it, because it is egotistical. Instead, you should focus on service and passion.
 
a) An egotistical desire is simply taking without giving anything back. A law of human relationships is that you must be of service and give, if you are to receive back. Nobody is going to give you everything on a plate. This law of relationships is a law which permeates through nature.
 
b) To have an egotistical desire is not creating. It is simply having a desire without any power. True manifestation is a creative process which creates new things through using your natural resources. So as long as you are creating new things in accordance with your passion only, will you be on the road to successful manifestation. To simply want something without giving will lead to negative manifestation.
 
3. The universe doesn't owe you anything and is indifferent.
 
You simply can't ask, and expect everything to fall on a plate for you. You must create for yourself. No one is there to give you a leg up. You must create the help yourself, and use the resources that you have within you:
 
a) Manifestation is nothing to do with the universe. It is to do with you in your mind and body being the centre (or center) of the construct by which reality is created. The universe cannot do anything for you, except what you allow through using your own mind and body.
 
b) You must not expect anything to come to you. What can be manifested is already there. All you must do is increase your awareness through a change in your state of consciousness to realise what is already there.
 
What To Expect/Conclusion
 
Asking is a very mis-understood concept in manifestation, and law of attraction circles don't make this any easier. When you take the steps to learn real manifestation, you will realise the truth in these statements. So long as you ask in the wrong way, your manifestation will be useless. Please take heed from the lessons above.
