All about attracting and manifesting

QUESTION: Masters, Please explain the laws of attraction and manifestation and how they correlate with individual free will, divine will and opposing forces. I have used attraction and manifestation techniques and felt it working, but then people use their free will to stop it from occurring. Who wins when one person wants something to happen and another wants the opposite? I once sent energy for a chipper and the next week a chipper was for sale across from my house. I knew it was for me, but the man wanted too much money. Someone else bought it. Why didn’t he lower the price for me, or give it to me freely? How does that work? Why doesn’t the price I want to pay attach to the manifestation? Please explain. It appears to me that opposing laws, rules or forces run counter to laws of attraction and manifestation that nobody mentions. ~Christina, USA

ANSWER: All souls have free will, which is exercised using their freedom of choice in the direction of the lessons they learn on Earth and how they go about them. As you use it here, there is no divine will because that would mean that someone or something outside of you determines what is going to happen in your life and you have absolutely no say. (To mess with your mind a little, since you are a piece of Source energy, you are divine, and using your freedom of choice could be called divine will.)

Opposing forces occur when two souls having their own experiences interact, and each has a different outcome in mind. You can only control your own reality unless another party chooses to let you take the lead and follows along. No one is any stronger in a disagreement until one party gives up.

When you are using manifestation to attract something you desire, the intention goes out into the universe and is received in energy. That energy will attract corresponding energy and find a way to make it come to your awareness. It will not cause others to change the price of an item they think is correct, or to openly give it to you because you want it. They maintain their reality and the desires they have. With the chipper, your neighbor’s manifestation was for someone to buy it at the price he deemed proper, and that is what happened.

After the sale, your intention was still out in the universe and all you had to do was continue to look for it instead of blaming your neighbor for not “listening” to your broadcast. Your opposing forces are not in conflict with each other; they are just not in alignment. You have to look for what aligns with your attraction. The only time you can be in total control is when you are the only one involved in your manifestation.

The miraculous success stories written about the law of attraction occurred when different people shared the same desires and came together through using energy to look for each other. Broaden your expectations when you put energy into manifestation, and you will see it can be very successful. But the fact that you want something will not force others to see things your way unless they are so inclined.
