The earliest written expression of the idea now known as the law of attraction (LOA) is attributed to Hermes Trismegistus and is found in a text called the Emerald Tablet, which includes the widely quoted phrase, “as above, so below.” The LOA can also be traced to Plato's law of affinity, which states, “likes tend toward like.”
Until the birth of the New Thought movement in the late 1800s, prototypical ideas about the LOA circulated within occult subcultures including alchemy, Hermeticism, Gnosticism, Rosicrucianism, Kabbalism, witchcraft, and many other secret societies and mystery school traditions. Scholars have grouped all of these various ideas under the single label of Western esotericism, and there are three fundamental ways to view these esoteric, mysterious ideas:
Is the LOA foolishness or dangerous? Why was it kept secret for so long, and why are millions of people now spreading the LOA’s gospel of health, wealth and love? There is one simple answer: It works.

- They are heretical or dangerous.
- They stem from, or are based on, a single strand of truth referred to as perennial philosophy, which runs through all of the traditional religions as well as all of the various occult subcultures.

Having read some of the books examined in this book on the Law of Attraction, this book provides me with a better understanding and study by demonstrating how to use and apply this law by offering a rational explanation using both science and everyday language I can use and interpret with just a modest education. A balance that will help me better apply this law in my life.It's what I needed to help me further advance. It tops my list. Thank You so much. Well done!
