The Acorn and the Oak Tree

When you and I have a thought, particles move into and back out of form based off our intention. So if we have a thought about the amount of money we want to make, about the car we want to drive, about the house we want to live in, about the lifestyle we want to have, we actually take possession of that image on the conscious level and the particles needed to create that physical reality have already moved into form. In fact, the ether on which the image exists on the physical plane has created; in ‘formless substance,’ the physical reality you desire. So as my mentor Bob Proctor states, “the moment you consciously entertain yourself in possession of your goal- YOU ACTUALLY HAVE YOUR GOAL ON A CONSCIOUS LEVEL. You must therefore begin thinking and talking like the person who has the goal. Consciously reaffirming your goal by rewriting your image as often as possible every day will strengthen the image in your mind.”
So a thought is the very thing that switches the ‘non-physical’ world (the stuff you can’t see), to its physical equivalent. So the potentiality of everything starts to move from potential into a particle through a simple thought. So what does that mean? It means that all of a sudden it goes from nothing to an electron or particle when a thought is formed. The thought that’s held in the mind switches on the intelligence of the universe that we can’t see. So why is this important? It’s important because of the GREAT LAW. The GREAT LAW simply states that everything is made up of energy.
So if everything is energy, what causes it to move from the stuff I can’t see to the stuff I can see? What causes it to move from the stuff I can see to the formless substance that I can’t see? Well let me show you…
To the left you see two small acorns. The question is where is the Oak Tree? If an oak tree is created out of the acorn, where is the oak tree? If you have read the book Working with the Law by Raymond Holliwell, you will probably remember the chapter on “The Law of Success” where Holliwell points out, “All of the processes of nature are successful. Nature knows no failures. She never plans anything but success. She aims at results in every form and manner….” So where is the oak tree?
- There is NO oak tree in an acorn
However, you and I and everything that exists are little packets of energy that respond to thought because thought influences energy. Now note right here that the reason I’m using an example in nature is because nature is NEVER wrong. And to succeed in the best and fullests sense of the term we must, with nature as our model, copy her methods. In her principles and laws we shall discover all the secrets of success. Just as you can not defy gravity, we can neither defy nature’s laws which are the natural laws of the universe. Therefore, we need to learn to work with her laws and play her game. So if we learn what those laws are and we understand the rules, then we also understand how to play the game. We make success so much easier than stressing ourselves out and working harder. WORK SMARTER not HARDER. Work in harmony with the natural laws not against them. So where is the oak tree?
- There is a nucleus or a patterned plan for the oak tree encoded within the molecular structure of the acorn
But still, where then is the oak tree? Well, to answer that question I must keep coming back to the answer that EVERYTHING is ENERGY and that’s the foundation of the universe. This is the Game of Life and the Game is ALWAYS ON. Therefore, there isn’t a time where nature’s laws don’t work. Now understanding that nature’s laws are ALWAYS ON; we must understand that ALL ENERGY VIBRATES. If you look at ANYTHING underneath an electron microscope you would see it vibrating. For example, our bodies are made up of 100 trillion cells. Every cell is doing 100,000 thousand electrical or chemical actions per second. So 100 trillion x 100,000 thousand = 10 thousand trillion electrical or chemical actions or reactions per second. But wait a second, where is the oak tree?
- If an acorn is kept out of the earth and is not in the process of growing, it must by law, be dying
- The acorn must be planted in the earth
- The energy/potentiality of the oak tree must be in harmony with the seed
- THIS IS CALLED RESONANCE
So let us begin to understand how the Law of Attraction works. If the acorn itself is energy, then where is the oak tree? REMEMBER that we need to take a look at the “Natural Laws of the Universe” to answer this question.
The Natural Laws
THE LAW OF VIBRATION AND RESONANCE
- Energy on the same frequency resonates and attracts
- Thoughts are waves of energy that travel
- Physical universe manifests from the quantum universe
- Concentration and focus increases vibration
- Negative thoughts=negative attraction
- Positive thoughts=positive attraction
- The acorn has the DNA or POTENTIAL within the seed for the OAK TREE
So the OAK TREE is in the POTENTIAL of the acorn. If I planted the seed of the OAK TREE in the right soil, and we know the soil is vibrating, the soil has nutrients and it has water, then under the right conditions and with the law of RESONANCE in nature through the attractive force of the universal laws- the acorn’s rate of vibration or frequency will make itself known to everything else in the universe on that same frequency. That’s why “birds of a feather flock together.”
So if the acorn is planted underneath the soil, and everything is vibrating underneath the soil, then the soil and the water and the right conditions are also being attracted to the acorn. Now the acorn starts to get the soil and the water. So the nutrients and water to the acorn is its food. And just like anything, when one begins to eat the “right food” we begin to grow because it increases our vibrational rate. Or another way of putting this is that it gives us more ENERGY (the vice is also true here where if we eat the wrong foods then it takes more energy to digest it).
- Like energy is attracted to the acorn’s energy and becomes one with the acorn
- The acorn expands and little shoots begin to come out the bottom and develop into roots
- As those roots expand and burst through the earth, this attractive force continues and particles of energy from the atmosphere are attracted to it
- As the acorn continues to expand at some point it ceases to become an acorn and becomes an oak tree
- The roots, the trunk, the bark, the branches, the twigs, and the leaves, are all in the universe and they are attracted to the acorn, because of the nucleus or the patterned plan which rests within the seed of the acorn
- THE ACORN HAS NO ABILITY TO CHANGE ITS VIBRATORY RATE; HOWEVER WE, AS HUMANS, DO HAVE THAT ABILITY. YOU ARE A CO-CREATOR AND CAN CHOOSE YOUR OWN PROGRAMMING.
The image you choose to hold on the screen of your conscious mind, and plant deeply in your sub-conscious mind is the patterned plan, the nucleus or the seed which determines what you will eventually grow into. Your thoughts dictate the vibration you will be in and also controls what you will attract to you and what you will repel.
Like the acorn; but on a human conscious level, want to take the energy that is ALREADY HERE (ie fertile soil, nutrients, water, etc.) and get you in HARMONY with it so that you may grow into that OAK TREE! See yourself in the picture below and it may begin to start to make sense to you!
See your “Mind” as the acorn planted deep within the potential of the earth or universe. It attracts to it what puts out.
