The Orange Seed - Part 3

"The Concern Of Thanks"

A wise man would usually tell me that there are three laws of the universe

1) The Law Of Attraction
2) The Law Of Vibration and
3) The Law Of Gratitude

The recent craze (and highly misconstrued) "the secret" has brought light onto the first two laws for the modern society; more so the first law.

The third law has been in the minds of us all from since...forever. But we've never really taken it to the deepest levels. I'm sure you parents would have taught you to say "thank you" whenever you would have received something. And they would periodically remind you to say "thank you".

This "thank you" that you express may first be perceived as simply manners, but what you invoke is a very powerful law; and that's the law of gratitude. This powerful law is an energy within itself. I have come to understand it as a tool of guidance...Guidance for the emotion, and by extension the soul. It allows us to notice all the little things that happen during the day that go right, all the things that could go right and all the things that have gone right in your life. this powerful technique, banishes fear, doubt, sadness and even disbelief. Gratitude for, simple things such as the fact you have skin on top of your flesh.

The law of gratitude has to regard for circumstances, it only knows the value of what you have and of what you can achieve. Gratitude allows you to see beyond your circumstances, beyond you situation, and in essence beyond your own choices.

How do we activate this law: Well we do it all the time!

1) Praying to whoever you call God is a good start. By saying thanks for what you have is a very good thing. Start with thanking your God for all the things in your immediate environment.

2) Try paying more attention. Notice all the things that went right and all the thing that could have been a lot worse. But stick to the former. This way your awareness not only increases but accepting those things that went you way and that which you cannot control is a giant step on your way to happiness.

3) In a relaxing period alone, try to meditate on ALL the things you can be thankful for. At least once a month. It's actually called a gratitude meditation. I mean scan you life thoroughly and pick out every luxury that you experience. Like a bed, the roads to drive on, your mind, your skin (would you prefer none?) the grocery. Although there may be more month at the end of the money, still be glad you have the opportunity to do something in the first place. How about you friends, and family. No friends? Then be thankful in knowing that if you want good friends they will come one day.


With this law it's impossible to feel fear, doubt, anger, or depression when you're feeling gratitude.

To be concluded

Change the World
Change thyself
