This law says that in order to acquire anything in the physical universe, you have to relinquish your attachment to it. This doesn’t mean you give up the intention to create your desire. You give up your attachment to the result. This is a very powerful thing to do. The moment you relinquish your attachment to the result, combining one-pointed intention with detachment at the same time, you will have that which you desire. Anything you want can be acquired through detachment, because detachment is based on the unquestioning belief in the power of your true Self. Attachment comes from poverty consciousness, because attachment is always to symbols. Detachment is synonymous with wealth consciousness, because with detachment there is freedom to create. True wealth consciousness is the ability to have anything you want, anytime you want, and with least effort. To be grounded in this experience you have to be grounded in the wisdom of uncertainty. In this uncertainty you will find the freedom to create anything you want.

You are a beautiful, beautiful man. Your words, thoughts and ideas fill me with joy and hope that this experience is truly self created and within our control.
Attachment is povery consciousness.
So well said.
Attachments turn us into stagnant small ponds (often stinky and mirky), when Nature wants us to be running rivers. Rich and full and wild!
A MAN WHO’S ENLIGHTENMENT IS ONLY APPRECIATED BY THOSE WHO BELIEVE….

Thank you for these powerful words.
I understand what I read but it is so difficult to put it into practice. When I desire a successful career, do I only have that desire and detach myself from the result? When I desire a happy relationship and future with my partner, how can I detatch myself from a picture of us together as family? That makes my desire stronger? By Detachment does it mean taht I should just desire happiness in a relationship and detach myself from my partner as this might not be the result? I cant seem to seperate the two thoughts.
I had asked this question to deepak but havent heard personally from him. But from what i can guess…you had the answer right. I think to expect love being reciprocated by a particular person is a form of attachment,but to seek love in any/all forms in life is free from it. I had once come across a buddhist monk and asked him that i find the whole “positive co cocreation” and “letting go” very contradicting. how do you let go and then create something with positive thinking? And he had said that if you have optimism without any fear at all, that is when you have actually let go and at the same time you create what you want. So, in your case, if your desire is actually rooted in the fear that your partner might leave you, then its a form of attachment. A lot of these things are a lot easier said than practiced, but we have a lifetime to experiment
?
thanks you so much, that was very inspiring. You are right, we cant have all the answers, we are learning. the answers lie inside us and if we set ourselves free from the result or attatchment we will in essence get what we wanted. thank you.
Hi there…
I was reading Deepak’s book “Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul” and I came across this passage which reminded me of this discussion. He nails the topic when he explains the following which I am rewriting in my own words- He says, that the soul is not a private property. Its a seamless field of awareness and all of us are tied to this single field. When you love someone, you make a connection with them at a deeper level (we all have heard that). What that means is that when you strive to heal your relationship (if it needs healing) or be the loving partner that you strive to be, you should know that this deeper connection actually enables the other person to receive it. Irrespective of what the immediate signs seem to be, know that this seamless field of awareness knows your intent and will respond rightfully.
So…I guess that makes it easier to let go, if you know that your intent and effort towards a relationship is never going unnoticed. It is acted upon because awareness has no choice about it. I would recommend reading this book because i am not doing a good job of conveying the point, but you will get it if you read the book.
I just love each and everything that you write. Some are so very thought provoking, some just make you feel good. You must be a really wonderful man. Wish I could meet you sometime. I follow you diligently on twitter
Where can I find a spiritual guru in Sydney who can guide me to the final levels? Thank you.
