The Attitude of Gratitude

Love is the highest vibrational frequency and the ultimate law of the Universe. 

To love is to see something with pure positive energy and to act in its best interest. To love is to see the flaws and yet not mind them.

Love is everywhere. All there is, is love. 

But honestly, as cheesy as this sounds. It is very hard to see “love” literally everywhere. Especially in the people, places, things, circumstances and situations that you do not love. In fact, the ones you hate!

And why should we love them? We ought to think the way we do for a good reason. 

But this time-space-based Universe that we are currently living in is governed by several laws. One such law is the Law of Reciprocity. 

This law states that, 

Whatever you give you get. 

That means if you give love, you get love and vice versa. 

Also, an important thing to remember is that it is not just the act of “doing” something that would produce the desired output but the energy behind doing it that yields results. 

Let me explain. 

If you donate money to the needy thinking that you will get double the money then my friend that is very unlikely to occur. Because the underlying intention of it is what matters. 

When you give to someone for the sole purpose of love, the desire to help and not to get something in return rather from a place of pure positive energy that is when the Universe unlocks many of its blessings.

Do you see the difference? The energy is what matters. Funnily you cannot fake it. So is true with negative energy.

But we can use this law of reciprocity to our benefit. This law is an amplifier. And truth be told, out of all the bad things that might surely be happening in our lives. There is always something good. It is that we may not have looked at it the same way. 

We are often told to be grateful for all that we have. To count our blessings, to look at the brighter side of life and consider the glass as half filled.

Many sacred texts throughout the world emphasize the power of Gratitude. 

They say,

“Appreciation is the highest form of Prayer”

If we have a close look at our everyday lives and all the things we do there is some form of gratitude connected to it. 

A prayer is a form of Gratitude.

We pray when we wake up, before eating food, after finishing it, before going to bed and before every auspicious activity. 

We are told to think positive thoughts, to speak in a respectful manner, and to have an optimistic mindset. 

All these things are prescribed in every culture throughout the globe. 

Why do you think it is said so? It is because the Law of Reciprocity is at play. 

 The act of doing anything but that defies the very law. And not to forget, the Law of Attraction is always responding in accordance with it. 

But how do we practice Gratitude on a practical basis?

As I said earlier you cannot fake it. Because every universal law is responding to you as per your vibrational frequency. And you cannot fool the mighty Universe. 

But what you can do is acknowledge the things around you. No matter how small you consider them to be. 

Little things like being grateful for the clean air that we breathe, unpolluted water that we drink, continuous working electricity, high-speed wifi, food that we eat, a roof over our heads, friends and family, our healthy body, vitality, money in our bank account and so forth. 

Things like being thankful for the compliment received, wholeheartedly appreciating something that someone did for you and things like that. 

Gratitude is the ultimate form of receivership.

It opens your heart and makes you see the beauty in everything. 

When you are thankful for something, you appreciate it. Energetically speaking, you are in a state of pure love in that very moment. Not only is your frequency vibrating at a higher level but is also in alignment with that of Source Consciousness aka God. 

When you are in a perpetual state of thankfulness that becomes your dominant vibration. And you’ll soon attract everything that you desire very effortlessly. You’ll become a Super Manifestor! 

The next thing that I am about to say is going to surprise you and motivate you to start practising gratitude even more. 

Gratitude is used as a tool for quickening your manifestations. 

And is a very effective one! I do it on a daily basis! A lot of spiritual enthusiasts use gratitude for conscious manifestations. 

If you know nothing about the law of attraction or manifestations yet you really want to manifest something, you need not worry. Just get a gratitude journal and you’re good to go! 

When you are grateful for the things you have, you get more to be grateful for! Thankfulness acts like a magnet that draws more opportunities to be thankful. It is because it puts you in an Abundance Mindset. You no longer see the lack in things. All you see in surplus.  But to the quite opposite, when you focus on the lack, the lack magnifies.

One such way of practising gratitude on a daily basis is having a Gratitude Journal. 

What I do is, I write three things I am grateful for right before I go to bed and as soon as I wake up. It has been a real life-changing practice. It sets a really good tone for the entire day.

Something else that I do, is when I have negative or unwanted thoughts, I just pause for a minute, close my eyes and breathe. Then I open my eyes and look around for all that I have right now that I really wanted before. And I breathe in the positive vibes. I soak myself in the beauty of everything around me. 

One thing that I would like to say is you cannot force yourself to appreciate something you’re not grateful for. Nor would I suggest you do that. Rather just let it be. And in no ways are you indebted to, obliged or supposed to be or do something that you do not want to. If you do not see something to be thankful for yet you would want to be thankful just set an intention. Just ask the Universe for it and in no time you’ll find something to be grateful for. 

Lastly, out of the many things that I am thankful for, what I am grateful for is you, dear reader. For taking out your precious time and reading this article of mine. Thank you so much! I am truly blessed! But I would like to ask you something and I hope you answer

 “ What are you grateful for today?”
