Some things in life are just too terrible to believe are the result of our thoughts. Death, illness, natural disasters, poverty, accidents and other tragic experiences are not a part of our daily visualizations, yet these situations are very real and cannot be denied. When misfortune strikes, seemingly out of nowhere, then it is difficult to accept the Law of Attraction as the cause.
The truth is that the Law of Attraction is influenced by the Law of Karma, and therefore it is possible to experience events that are not in line with our thoughts from this lifetime. For example, there are people who have never worried about terminal illness, who suddenly find out that they have two years to live. It is difficult to make sense of these devastating circumstances whilst simultaneously believing in the Law of Attraction, and the only answer to this type of occurrence is to accept the role of karma.
On the other hand sometimes we attract unwanted situations by mistake, directly as a result of our negative thoughts or unfocused manifestation techniques. Generally these type of unwanted manifestations are a lot less serious, but still have a negative impact on reality. The good news about making a manifestation mistake, is that it is an opportunity to strengthen your faith and refine your manifesting techniques.
Past Life Karma
There are some circumstances such as major life tragedies that can only be explained as the role of past-life karma. Children that are born into unfortunate circumstances could not have attracted this to them through conscious thought, because children only begin to consciously think as their brains mature.
As hard as it is to digest, if you truly believe in the Law of Attraction you will know that reality is a perfect reflection of thought. This means that there must have been some level of thought in the child in order to attract the birth circumstances.
As beings that have been reincarnating since the beginning of all time, we all carry frequencies with us from one lifetime to the next. Every thought, word and action is accumulated in the form of karma, and sent back to us in order to teach our souls the necessary lessons for enlightenment.
This doesn’t mean that a child born into a poor household is a reincarnated serial killer, it just means that in their past-life they were probably emitting frequencies of lack. All great tragedies serve as an opportunity to learn huge spiritual lessons, and it is our life’s mission to evolve from past karma.
We have the ability to pay off our karmic debts and transcend the reality presented to us as the result of a past-life frequency. A soul will continue to reincarnate again and again until the soul’s thoughts and intentions are on a higher frequency. Once the soul has achieved enlightenment, then it ascends human life and goes back to the Divine Source.
The Two Manifestation Mistakes
As we learn to master the Law of Attraction it is only natural to make the occasional manifestation mistake, and end up attracting either unwanted experiences or incomplete manifestations. Fortunately making a manifestation mistake does not end in tragedy, but can be frustrating to understand. Here are some examples of the two most common manifestation mistakes and ideas on how to learn from them:
Unwanted Experiences
Thinking negative thoughts repeatedly or having a strong belief in a negative outcome, will influence manifestation and can attract negative experiences. For example you might be forced to go into an area where you know your ex often likes to hang out. If you are deeply afraid of bumping into your ex, you might start to accidentally visualize this happening.
The next thing you know, you have manifested a negative experience and your worst fears come true. This is directly as a result of the powerful feelings of fear and anxiety you have emitted as well as allowing your mind to run rampant. However, it is at least a confirmation of your manifestation abilities and a reminder of how important it is to focus your thoughts.
The best way to prevent this type of negative manifestation, is to pay close attention to your thoughts. If you notice yourself imagining a bad outcome, you need to consciously combat these thoughts immediately. Remind yourself that you can control reality, and focus on imagining a better situation. For the same example as above, you could visualize yourself achieving your task whilst feeling relaxed and happy, without seeing your ex at all.
Incomplete Manifestations
Forgetting to be detailed in your request can cause only half of your desire to manifest, or your desire might manifest in an unpleasant way. For example perhaps you wanted to attract a new wardrobe, and then you are gifted a huge bag of clothes but none of them fit you. Alternatively you may want to attract a promotion and then you do, but as a result your best friend is let go.
In order to prevent incomplete or unpleasant manifestations it is super important to figure out exactly what you want, and to imagine the best set of circumstances for your desire to manifest. This is also why it is a good idea to dream big, there is a saying to keep in mind while manifesting that goes “shoot for the moon, and even if you miss you will land amongst the stars”.
Forgive Yourself
Whether the reason for your unwanted manifestation is due to a mistake or past karma, it is unhelpful to obsessively blame and reprimand yourself. By continually asking yourself “Why did I manifest that experience?” it will only serve to weaken your faith and lower your frequency. This will in turn affect your present and future manifestations negatively, so it is better to simply accept the situation and move on.
Look at it the unwanted manifestation as a mistake or the result of past karma that is an opportunity for higher learning. Each and every moment you are facing an important chance to learn a valuable spiritual lesson, and take one step closer to enlightenment. For this reason it is particularly important to keep your spirits high and faith strong in times of hardship. In doing so you can hope to turn the situation around, or attract a future that is beyond your wildest dreams.
