Law of Attraction Vaheguruji ka khalsa, Vaheguruji ki fateh,  I have read and heard the Western perspective on law of attraction, but little did I know that my Guru, Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji actually spoke about it 500 years ago! How cool is that??  So, I started doing my research, started reading books, going on iGurbani app and typing the word 'attract', guess what, I found my answer. Why was I wondering elsewhere, when the answer was with me all the time?  Guru Sahib speaks about the connection between the thoughts, words and actions.

Bhagat Dhru -Translated from Sri Gur Bhagat Mala Steek by Giani Narain Singh Ji 1.       Sri Dhru Bhagat Ji In the age of Satyug, there was a bhagat called Dhru. He was born in the house of King Uttanpad. His mother’s name was Suneeta. She was a religious and truthful woman. King Uttanpad had two wives. The younger wife, Suruchi was beautiful but was fickle minded and full of jealousy. She controlled the King and always kept him in her palace. She had a son as well who always played with the father. Suruchi never let Dhru play with his father. Dhru never got to enjoy the love of a father. A child who doesn’t get the fatherly love, the child’s upbringing is incomplete and will then go through series of mental distress. Bhai Gurdaas Ji writes about the life of Bhagat Dhru in their Vaaran. < siqgur pRswid] One Oankar, the primal energy, realized through the grace of the divine preceptor
