While it certainly can be, it certainly need not be. And if you consider that everyone is using LOA all the time (and by this, I include unconscious creation), then it is indeed very problematic to say that LOA is a spiritual pursuit. |
Becoming aware in such a way to see LoA is exactly what is a spiritual pursuit. Unconscious creation is there to hopefully wake people up. The school of hard knocks.

Eg suppose a person does not believe in any kind of god or spirit; is a liar and a cheat and a robber and a rapist and a violent person; does not see any need to change his ways; and would utterly scoff at the notion of a "Law of Attraction".
Nevertheless he would be creating his own reality through LOA. However, I would not say that the person is engaging in any "spiritual pursuit".

The spiritual pursuit is not LoA itself - its the awareness and consciousness raising and alignment with spirit that is. I may have mixed term saying LoA when I should have been saying creation/manifestation awareness.

As a matter of fact, you'll also find that among people who believe in the LOA and try to use it, there are many whose IM attempts will have nothing to do with anything with an obviously spiritual theme. Instead they'll be manifesting for a empty parking lot; or a lottery win; or great sex; or a new job etc.

Whose to say having a parking spot is not a spiritual connection? I have alway read and thought deliberate manifestation is in context of for the greater good of all (which is a spiritual or connected to peace and harmony thing). I gues those that try to use LoA to manifest such and such are just attempts becuse these things are comming from low awareness of what is for the greater good of all. Until they can perceive that their goals are what the spirit is looking for they are attempts and don't pann out and then they conclude LoA isn't allways working.
