Are there well defined spiritual laws that we can all agree upon?

Question

so as we can move on to discover more undiscovered spiritual phenomena much in same fashion like science when it first discovered gravity and move on discover a special theory of relativity? The way I see it we can't even agree on what basic must be.

Answer 1

Dr. Linnea Bailey says so:

1.The Law of Divine Oneness:

The Law of Divine Oneness helps us to understand that we live in a world where everything is connected to everything else. Everything we do, say, think and believe affects others and the universe around us.



2. The Law of Vibration:

This Universal Law states that everything in the Universe moves, vibrates, and travels in circular patterns. The same principles of vibration in the physical world apply to our thoughts, feelings, desires, and wills in the Etheric world. Each sound, thing, and even thought has its own vibrational frequency, unique unto itself.



3. The Law of Action:

The Law of Action must be applied in order for us to manifest things on earth. Therefore, we must engage in actions that support our thoughts, dreams, emotions and words.



4. The Law of Correspondence:

This Universal Law states that the principles or laws of physics that explain the physical world – energy, Light, vibration, and motion – have their corresponding principles in the etheric or universe. “As above, so below.”



5. The Law of Cause and Effect:

This Universal Law states that nothing happens by chance or outside the Universal Laws. Every action has a reaction or consequence and we “reap what we have sown.”



6. The Law of Compensation:

This Universal Law is the Law of Cause and Effect applied to blessings and abundance that are provided for us. The visible effects of our deeds are given to us in gifts, money, inheritances, friendships, and blessings.



7. The Law of Attraction:

This Universal Law demonstrates how we create the things, events, and people that come into our lives. Our thoughts, feelings, words, and actions produce energies which, in turn, attract like energies. Negative energies attract negative energies and positive energies attract positive energies.



8. The Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy:

This Universal Law states that all persons have within them the power to change the conditions in their lives. Higher vibrations consume and transform lower ones; thus, each of us can change the energies in our lives by understanding the Universal Laws and applying the principles in such a way as to effect change.



9. The Law of Relativity:

This Universal Law states that each person will receive a series of problems (Tests of Initiation) for the purpose of strengthening the Light within. We must consider each of these tests to be a challenge and remain connected to our hearts when proceeding to solve the problems. This law also teaches us to compare our problems to others’ problems and put everything into its proper perspective. No matter how bad we perceive our situation to be, there is always someone who is in a worse position. It is all relative.



10. The Law of Polarity:

This Universal Law states that everything is on a continuum and has an opposite. We can suppress and transform undesirable thoughts by concentrating on the opposite pole. It is the law of mental vibrations.



11. The Law of Rhythm:

This Universal Law states that everything vibrates and moves to certain rhythms. These rhythms establish seasons, cycles, stages of development, and patterns. Each cycle reflects the regularity of God’s universe. Masters know how to rise above negative parts of a cycle by never getting too excited or allowing negative things to penetrate their consciousness.



12. The Law of Gender:

This Universal Law states that everything has its masculine (yang) and feminine (yin) principles, and that these are the basis for all creation. The spiritual Initiate must balance the masculine and feminine energies within herself or himself to become a Master and a true co-creator with God.



Sub-laws
In addition to the 12 Universal Laws, Drs. Milanovich and McCune (1998) state there are 21 sub-laws of the Universe that are governed by the Higher Self. Using Milanovich and McCune’s stellar work, Dr. Bailey works with her clients to understand and apply these laws to their lives by first differentiating between the voice of the ego and that of the Higher Self, and then by practicing techniques designed to align one’s self with her or his Higher Self.

The 21 sub-laws are actually human characteristics that relate to the Universal Laws. These characteristics are: Aspiration to A Higher Power, Charity, Compassion, Courage, Dedication, Faith, Forgiveness, Generosity, Grace, Honesty, Hope, Joy, Kindness, Leadership, Noninterference, Patience, Praise, Responsibility, Self-Love, Thankfulness, and Unconditional Love.

Answer 2

I'm sorry you lost you cat. I am a Christian and I am not sure I could give you a definitive answer either way. I do know that dying from kidney failure is a painful & suffering death for a cat, and I am sure your vet certainly had the experience & judgment regarding his situation. There is the story in the New Testament about Stephen who was being put to death by stoning, Stephen called out to God to forgive his executioners, and at that point Stephen fell limp in death. God had spared Stephen the impending pain of being stoned to death. I am not suggesting that Stephens death is anything like euthanasia, only that God spared Stephen the pain of his impending death. I don't think one could apply this towards justifying euthanasia with humans, that would literally be trying to play God. However, in the instance of creatures, God gave mankind dominion over them, so perhaps following Gods example in sparing Stephen might be sound when it comes to the creatures we are responsible for. I hope that is helpful. Also know that the second guessing yourself (what if I had done this, or that) is part of the experience of grieving. Additionally, if share what's on your heart with Jesus, He will forgive you. Your kitty will too.

Answer 3

The responder above hit the topic right on point, I can't resist elaborating a bit :D Love is the most basic spiritual premise of all. It is the source of all and should guide all actions. There is an old saying; in essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity. The various denominations etc. create problems because they mix up what are the essentials. We start defining religion based on doctrine and the gap just continues to widen.

Answer 4

there are some well defined, some open to interpretation, laws, but both sides have to be able to read. I doubt if either has read the other's book that they are so vehement about. if they did they would find so many similarities they might begin to question what their leaders are saying to them [spiritual leaders].
forget theoretical. they still can't say for certain which way electricity flows in a battery

Answer 5

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children;
2 and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.

3 But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints;
4 and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.
5 For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7 Therefore do not be partakers with them;
8 for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light
9 (for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
10 trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.
11 Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;
12 for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.

Answer 6

there is one thing that everyone can agree on, and it is clearly illustrated in the variety of answers you have and will get from this question

everyone believes in something
that is the common denominator
whether it is the christian god, allah, the hebrew god, satan, ufo's sent to take us to heaven, or even the belief that there is no higher being; these are all beliefs

the power to believe in something and live by that belief, whatever it may be is what unites every living soul in this world

Answer 7

The most important spiritual law is "Love God"; and the second is "Love Other People the Way You Want to be Loved." Unfortunately, people are not likely to even agree on these......

Answer 8

We are all at different levels of spirituality, at different times. Perhaps to some degree, like positive and negative energies, Faith, communication and Prayer.

Answer 9

Everyone has different opinions of what spiritual laws are. So, no, this will never happen.

Answer 10

Nope. because each of us have different spiritual questions to find answers for.

our ancestors found their answers and started religions, and we cam along with other questions; and the religions of our ancestors does not answer OUR spiritual questions; so we look around to find those answers.
