LoA and free will

[Rakiot]

Actually I’m contemplating how the LoA is related to free will. That is clear how I can attract money or goods, because they are not live. Therefore I know who is attractor and who (better, “what”) is attracted. But if two (wo)men have met? E.g. if a girl is raped by a criminal should we think that the criminal did not have free will and was attracted by the girl? However, this situation is symmetric so we should decide that both may be the attractors.

Let's back up just a bit here.

Yes, money and other goodies are not living things and can't have anything remotely resembling freewill. But these sorts of things only come our way through the actions of people; that is, they don't just magically appear out of the air, or dust, or the bottom of the refrigerator. So they come to you by an act of freewill by another person, or group of people. It just so happens that LoA works in conjunction with their freewill to supply you with what you need without diminishing those who are supplying it to you.

Napoleon Hill writes of this in his book, Think and Grow Rich. Essentially, he says that when you give more than you receive, the difference comes back to you multi-fold.

As for your example of the criminal act, that's something that I really don't have an answer for. But I hope that nobody would suggest that a rape victim somehow "attracted" such a violent and demeaning act upon themselves in any way.

I assume that the girl doesn’t want to be raped. If the rape take place LoA doesn’t work for her and if not -- doesn’t work for him.

I’ve just read it. Yes, how it works if free wills conflict?

I recommend reading this, as it pertains to free will and spiritual heirarchy in regards to manifestation. It seems to make a lot of sense in some areas. 3 parts total.

The I that is my consciousness has free will, but it is way below my conscious awareness to really know. PERIOD

The idea of the girl and the rapist is simply explained by the Hicks' when they state that whatever the vibration the girl was feeling matched the vibration the rapist was feeling. Not the the girl had to actively manifest "a rape" for it to happen, nor that the rapist had to actively manifest that particular girl to vent his unfocused ill-will or rage upon.

They just had to be vibrating on the same low level and happened to have proximity for that to occur.

Don't assume that so called "inanimate objects" have no free will. I would ask you to consider the possibility that everything is ultimately composed of thought. Matter is made up of molecules, which are made up of atoms, which are made up of even more sub-atomic particles, which, in turn, are made up of sub-sub-atomic particles down to the tiniest quantum of energy exchange. But this thing we call "energy" is in actuality the same thing as consciousness.

Energy is action, consciousness is action, and they are both the stuff existence is made of. Even the individual cells of of your body are conscious with their own individual "free-will". The universe is like an enormous fractal, on a macroscopic and microscopic scale. The macrocosm is a reflection of the microcosm and vice versa. You are a conscious being whom is composed of many many other conscious beings. You are those being's Higher Self. Your identity, as you would define it, is also embedded in a larger conscious entity whom is your Higher Self.

Now the thing is, even though these "less aware" points of consciousness have their own individual free will, the fact that they are there within you is by virtue of the fact that they harmonize with your overall vibrational essence. The law of attraction can only connect you with things that are vibrationally compatible with you, whether that involves a state of chaos and disharmony, or a state of peace and harmony.
