Law of Attraction (New Age)

Encyclopedia : L : LA : LAW : Law of Attraction (New Age)


The Law of Attraction is an idea that is widespread in New Age philosophy. It posits that a mental disposition will attract equivalent external circumstances and events.

Esoteric teacher Dick Sutphen states:

The Law of Attraction states, in a nutshell, like attracts like. In other words, we are like a walking magnet that draws to us anyone or anything that is on the same wavelength. If you’re radiating positive energy, you attract positive people and experiences. If you’re radiating negative energy, you attract negativity.[link]
Books have been written on the subject by Michael Losier, Jerry and Esther Hicks, Penny Jordan, Sheryl Woods, Kristi Gold, Liz Gerstein and Sandra Anne Taylor, William Walker Atkinson, Robert Collier, Israel Regardie and Mark Allen[link]

One web site offers contacts with business, spiritual and life coaches who include the Law of Attraction in their approach. [link]

Esther Hicks, a professional channel, is one of the best-known proponents of the subject. Her web site describes it as "The most powerful law in the universe."[link]

In March 2006 a film The Secret based on, and explaining, the Law of Attraction, was broadcast through the internet. It is currently available on DVD and pay per view streaming.
