The universe kinda becomes like a god. All that energy and vibe stuff is like a way of praying. It’s all about faith, not really backed by evidence.
It’s like how I see thunder, so there must be a god of thunder. In this case, seeing vibration and energy (like in String Theory, which still hasn’t been proven) makes me think there’s gotta be some deeper meaning and that it can make my wishes come true.
And of course, there are people out there selling books, spreading fake news, and posing as manifesting professors just to cash in on others’ ignorance.
But hey, for a lot of people, it’s just a way to find hope and relax a bit through positive thinking, focusing on their goals and planning things out. So I’m not trying to bash “believers”, just sharing a shower thought.
To all the people downvoting: “Law of Attraction” is not a lay person’s way of saying “Law of Gravity”.
It’s the belief online that “if I give off good vibes, good vibes will be attracted back to me. You know, because everything is, like, made up of vibrating strings, and stuff” (that last bit is just the connection to String theory OP mentioned)
OP is not endorsing these beliefs, just observing them.
Thank you for pointing this out! Now I see why people keep downvoting. Imagine listening to a dude talking like that about gravity 😂
At least it’s good to know that most of us haven’t heard of the “Law of Attraction” I was talking about.
