What Is The Law Of Emergence?.

“More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones” — Mother Teresa

(What follows are excerpts from my current book in development, “The Law of Emergence.” I would love your thoughts on these ideas.)

I once knew a guy who used the law of attraction to ‘attract’ a Mercedes into his life. “Wow, this stuff really works!” he declared, becoming an instant convert. Two weeks later he lamented that the Mercedes was in the shop – for the third time – and he had spent the last several days trying to pray his way out of the mess he had attracted himself into! The problem was that he manifested the Mercedes, but didn’t develop ‘Mercedes Consciousness.’ He changed the world outside but remained the same inside.

This is a common limitation of many ‘New Age’ teachings, which are little more than just metaphysical versions of material practices; instead of using physical labor, they’re using mental and emotional labor. In one sense, it’s a step up – and a necessary step, as we’ll discuss later — but there is rarely much transformational value in it and, because it’s still based on a sense of being separate from the thing we want, it can be just as exhausting. Even some sincere ‘spiritual’ teachings, still rooted in a dualistic perception of life, teach followers to use this Great Power within to get more stuff ‘out there,’ which often leads to spiritual materialism and perpetuates the very problems they’re trying to heal.
