Hey, Rob. I'm just reading the Hicks' The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent, and their description of a unified, universal consciousness power is what some people might call god. Not a force that you're separate from, but one that you're actually inseparable from.

I get the feeling that it's unnecessary to come to a "higher understanding" of LoA, as long as you align yourself so that you think thoughts that feel good when you think them. If you're constantly trying to "figure it out" (chances are that's something you do all over your life, not just LoA) then you might be aligning yourself to attract more and more things to "figure out." There's nothing wrong with that, of course, especially if thinking those thoughts make you feel good to think them. If they don't, I invite you to consider alternatives.

One thing I'm finding fascinating about this book: the concept of The Contrast. The Contrast is always there, always providing you with desires, and will never go away. "You will never be 'done'", they say. I love that.
