The Gulf oil spill is also going on in my universe!

I don't take the law of attraction so literally, that I would feel responsible for British Petroleum and the actions of their people in authority. I know some won't agree with this. I feel responsible for the circumstances in my own personal life. I don't think I am to blame for the actions of others; they also have their free will.

No, as the previous responder said, you were most definitely not responsible for the oil spill, so don't lose sleep over that. Free will is always operating. I don't even believe in God and I can say this. But people can be the victims of others' free will, as those directly affected by the oil spill were. And saying the spill was an event without meaning is horribly dispassionate and mentally cruel to those poor creatures who lost their lives because of it. You can kind of tell I don't take the LOA as anything but a hoax. I studied it, lived it and believed in it, thoroughly, for years. It doesn't work. It certainly didn't in my life.

Maybe you did how I cannot comprehend,(:-)! or maybe it was outside of human control. In order to bring about an evolutionary leap in mass consciousness we had to be prepared for it, sadly as with all of humanity it comes to us through a hard lesson. Because I believe in the ONENESS of the all. I believe that all things work together for the good of those who love God. That does not mean that all things that happen will be good but that the outcome will be. People hear the message about Alternate Energy, Now after the Gulf oil spill the mass consciousness has been prepared to listen. What does Loving God mean, Loving Life,The Earth,the children of the earth.Loving all of creation and living in resonance with it. Oh by the way I lived 14 years in New Orleans, I love to fish and if you wanted to see a old man cry it is when I watch the internet news about the spill. The places I use to go fishing, picnicing with the family.

Yes, everything that comes into our realm of consciousness for our experience, we (at some level) are responsible.

No you are not responsible for creating the oil spil. You are not even responsible for the majority of stuff that happens in your own back yard so please dont beat yourself up about it or worse feel guilty in any way. Yes the law of attraction works 100% in physical science experiments but it only sometimes works if a person wants to manifest a specific thing for it takes mental work as well as physical action. Human beangs are powerful but not so powerfull. We all have the creative spark within but not to such an extent that one can cause oil spills. Have fun with the law of attraction but dont take it too seriously.

"Responsible" is a word with varied meanings. From an ordinary, worldly, personality perspective, "responsible" often means "to blame for." From this POV, you are not, of course, responsible for the oil spill.

But when we enter the non-ordinary, energetic realm, "responsible" has a different meaning because in this realm, or "reality" nothing that happens is wrong, so there is no blame that can be assigned to anyone. From this POV, the fact that anyone notices the oil spill indicates that they are at least partially resonant with it. So the question becomes, is there someplace in my consciousness that I can identify that I am doing or acting in a way like this oil spill. If your main attention to the oil spill is, for example, the pollution of the coast, the question would be, is there some way that I pollute myself? If your main focus of attention is on judging the oil company as irresponsible, the question becomes, Is there some way I am behaving irresponsibly towards myself, the Earth or others?

The problem that people have with LOA is that, as Abraham says, each thing we want or prefer has an opposite in this ordinary world. If we love clean beaches, we resist or dislike dirty beaches. And we usually aren't aware of which "end of the stick" we are applying our attention to. And often our attention is applied to the thing we don't want - we resist it rather than applying our attention to the condition we DO want, appreciating and enjoying it. Resistance is the highway to manifestation. We create what we resist. Luckily, we are not very good at manifesting from the ordinary, worldly, personality "reality." We aren't that good at focusing our attention.

if you are in alignment with the gulf oil spill then yes it will manifest in some way in your reality, though not in the form of an oil spill but in a personal symbolic form...for example you find that there is an oil leak from your car engine.
