The Mirror Effect, the Law of Attraction, and "Points of Attraction" That Can Nurture the Evolution of Human Consciousness
AHP Perspective
(2009)
Abstract
This message has several purposes. First, I want to express my immense joy that Chip Baggett and I are serving as Co-Presidents of AHP since August 16, 2009. In my view, Chip and I are long-time friends, who have a transcendent connection and synergistic energies. My desire and intent is for our co-presidency to mirror the effect(s) of synergistic collaboration as a “point of attraction” that can assist in the evolution of human consciousness across often “perceived personal and societal boundaries” (e.g., race, culture, ethnicity, class, individual and collective belief systems, and dogma). More generally, however, this message is intended to further discuss: what I have called in other writings the mirror effect; what others have called the law of attraction; what I will call “points of attraction” in our life spaces that can limit and those that can nurture the evolution of human consciousness; and my views of two recent societal and global mirror effect events that have provoked creative thought.
