What we think of others is really what we think or feel about ourself, Question?

Well said Rach!

Often we think of the 'looking in the mirror' loa effect.
And you are right. bully/ feeling like a victim or helpless etc.
Very well written!

You're Welcome! The pleasure was all mine to read your post.

i've seen these comments too, and I don't 100% agree with them. In your example, your thoughts about your housemate are judgemental, so don't feel good cos your IB never judges others in that way (it will just be thanking your housemate for clarifying your desire for a clean and tidy housemate and loving the idea of a clean and tidy housemate.)

But the inference of the comments seens to be: we attract people who have the same 'flaws' that we have, and I don't think that's true at all.

Victims don't attract bullies because they themselves are bullies (although they can, in time, become bullies, but that's just a learned response.)

Victims attract bullies cos they have an active 'victim' vibe going on. And yes, they will more than likely have judgements about what constitutes bullying behaviour. But they aren't necessarily a bully themselves.

Victims of burglary are not (necessarily) themselves burglars, and nor would they ever contemplate being one. But they do have an insecurity vibe going on, a fear of loss vibe going on.

So yes, I'd say 99 times out of 100, the reason you are feeling bad when looking at another's words or actions is because you're judging them as bad or inappropriate when your IB isn't doing that. Your IB is just appreciating them for the rocket of desire they caused you to launch, and is totally focused on that desire. But your judgement about them is not necessarily how you feel about yourself, because you may never do or say the unwanted thing that they are saying or doing, you're just judging them, and that, in itself, is enough of a diversion from your IB's POV to make you feel discomfort.

Just my two cents...

With love,

Rach

Good point of view, Thanks Rach...

What we think of others is really a reflection of how we feel may be more accurate and may help to alleviate some confusion.Let's take a look at what Abe has to say about it.

ABE: "Your life is a perfect vibrational mirror: what you are living is always a perfect vibrational match to that which you are giving your attention to, which is also always a perfect vibrational match to how you’re feeling.

When you make the correlation that what I think and how I feel and what manifests is always a match, then you begin to understand that you can, with a little selective sifting, with a little deliberate thinking...train yourself into a vibrational expectancy that will yield you a life that you...would have to call a very lovely life."

Meredith Murphy can say it much better than I:

"So each of us reads life as a reflection of our own prior focus. Life as we know it, is simply a giant feedback system--reflecting our state of being, clearly and without distortion. I can trust that as I do this, what is ME is mirrored in the world around me and I can alter the world from within me. The parts of me that are made manifest in the world around me--will disappear and change--reflecting what I create within me. That's it. Therein lies my power to create...."
