The Law of Pure Potentiality is one of the fundamental universal laws outlined by Deepak Chopra in his book, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success.
The law recognizes the unity and oneness of all things, and points to the underlying energy that governs everything in the universe, including your consciousness.
The Source of All Creation: The Meaning of The Law
Everything in existence is part of a universal field of energy. This energy has many names, and is referenced by most major religions, as well as the physical sciences.
The energy is timeless, but the form of this energy is constantly shifting. Thus, everything that you experience is one representation, one perspective, of this universal energy.
Since you exist, you, too, are a part of this energy, and you can use your consciousness to imprint your thoughts and intentions onto it, and use it to manifest anything that you choose.
Because it is constantly changing and subject to your will, this field is a field of “pure potential”, ready and waiting to be molded according to your will.
You just have to know how to get in touch with it.
Practicing The Law
In order to get in touch with your universal nature, you need to tap into your source of inner guidance and intuition. There are many practices that you can use to do this, but the Chopra Center recommends three daily actions:
- Meditate. Firstly, the best way to get in touch with the field of pure potentiality is to meditate every day. Take time to be silent, to practice observing your breath, and allowing whatever thoughts might come to come freely and easily. This space is the source of all creative inspiration.
- Observe Nature. Secondly, make sure you take plenty of time to be in nature. The natural world is a great repository of energy, and one of the easiest ways to get in touch with your own true nature is to spend time experiencing and appreciating the incredible diversity of the planet on which you live.
- Practice Non-Judgment. Total acceptance is one of the core characteristics of any spiritual path, and by committing to not judging the people, events, and circumstances around you, you tell the universe that you are open and ready to receive whatever is best for you.
