Context. What is the purpose of the human experience?
If the results inside you are happiness, peace and harmony, you'll find this
information to be true; and if the external results, in terms of relationships, health,
resources and how you adapt to your environment improve, you'll verify that that
this information is wisdom.
In order to lay the foundations for a new civilization that will bring a greater
level of satisfaction for everyone, we must start by harmonizing ourselves. To do
this it is essential to study the Universal Laws and apply the principles that lead to
wisdom. We should bear in mind that only by sustained practice and discarding
theories and ideas that prove to be mistaken can we really achieve wisdom. This
3
way we can develop peace and harmony directly on the ground, with the teaching
of daily life, because life is the best school and nature the best teacher.
All we need to achieve efficiency is to stop arguing with the perfect order of
the Universe; mental inefficiency is necessary in order to discover, through
saturation, that the Laws of the Universe exist. When we reach the point where we
have suffered enough, we are ready to understand the Laws. Internal opposition
must stop before external opposition can, and for this to happen we have to have
accepted that everything that exists and everything that happens is perfect and
necessary, because its purpose is one of Love.
Studying and understanding why things exist and why they happen can lead
us to recognize the Laws, which in turn make it possible to create a better future
for Mankind.
There are seven Laws that govern all of the Universe's processes of creation,
administration and evolution. Of the seven, four are fundamental, for they control
the development and evolution of the consciousness of the human species
anywhere in the Universe. These four Laws form the lower triangle of the Laws,
while the Law of Evolution is the superior Law that governs the inferior triangle,
which is also known as the triangle of hell, because it is the lowest part of the
Universal Laws.
We will be within the Law when we love, enjoy and value what we have.
Everything within the Law functions well and flows on its own.
Anything that brings suffering, anguish, pain and illness, happens because we
are going against the Laws, and that is how we are going to recognize them. The
results we obtain when we go outside the Laws enable us to recognize their
existence. We have to make mistakes to be able to discover the Law. Mistakes are
not the problem; the problem is not learning from them.
The Law is designed so that we ourselves make a change, not so that we try
and change others.

LAW
In the tables above, the effects of violating the Law are listed on the right-
hand side. In this discussion of the Laws of the Universe we will also find an
explanation of the benefits of not violating the Law.
It is important not to confuse the Universal Laws with human laws or rules;
the Universal Laws are immutable and non-repealable, their origin lies in the
wisdom of the Absolute or Divinity and therefore they are absolute; they cannot be
amended or negotiated, and disobeying them brings a negative outcome —in the
sense of unpleasant—, and also a positive outcome —in the sense of it being a
learning experience—. That is why it is said that in fact human beings do not
construct laws, what we do is issue rules; we call them human laws, but they are
rules, because they are repealable, transitory and useful for a given moment.
We have come to planet Earth to develop three inner virtues: Happiness, inner
Peace, and Love or Service to others. This development brings with it excellent
results in all four fields of: Relationships, Resources, Health, and Adaptation to the
environment:
8
The idea is to use these virtues to interact with what is around us. To learn to
be happy, to be peaceful, and to love is the true purpose that has brought human
beings to the physical world of matter.

Happiness, peace and love are principles of the divine essence; they have no

Learning to be happy:
9
ü To learn to be happy we have only to face up to all that we believe takes our
happiness away.
ü If there is suffering, then just one question needs to be asked: what is it that I
am not accepting?; that is where the answer is to be found.
ü Everyone, without exception, has what they need to be happy; however, very
few people know how to be happy with what they have.
Learning to be peaceful:
ü Inner peace is the result of one's own spiritual development, not a gift.
ü All this requires is to be involved or share time with people whose behavior is
very different to our own, to learn to love and respect them just as they are.
10
ü Love is not a force, it is a tool.
By developing the three inner virtues excellent outer results are obtained in all
four spheres:
ü In relationships.
ü In resources.
ü In health.
In the life experience of any human being five elements are present: purpose,
destiny, mission, function and intention.
1. Purpose
b) To love one's neighbor as oneself, i.e., to respect the rights of all beings in the
Universe.
And how do we learn this? Here we can see the perfection of the Absolute's
educational design. To perform the exercise of learning to be happy within
ourselves we need to live in a place, with certain people and circumstances where
everything that happens around us is more or less aggressive. In this way we will
realize that our problem does not lie in what is happening around us, but in how
we relate to it, and the rejection and resistance that we set in motion.
As for the second part, loving one's neighbor as oneself, this means respecting
them just as they are, not seeking to change them, not putting up resistance to
11
others. We need to live in a place where the people around us think differently,
have varying customs, and create different things. That way, we will learn to love
them as they are, without judging them or condemning them. This is how the
purpose of love is fulfilled; it is the real reason why we human beings are here on
planet Earth.
More than 2,000 years ago, the Master Jesus taught us this when he said:
"Love your enemies"; they are not our enemies, they are people who think
differently.
Being happy means experiencing zero suffering about what happens; and
loving means offering zero resistance to others. Wisdom is the same as love, not
feeling. Those who have love care deeply about others, but they do not suffer;
however, those who possess goodness but not wisdom care deeply about others,
but they suffer enormously. Those who do not care, the indolent, the indifferent,
possess neither wisdom nor goodness.
2. Destiny
This is what we come to learn from the world of matter —how to manage the
seven tools of love to attain invulnerable peace—; it is a great opportunity to learn
what we are missing.
All of us bring to the world a destiny that is inevitable and highly valuable. Our
culture teaches us to try and avoid destiny instead of showing us how to harness
it. The key to harnessing destiny is: "You have the capacity to enjoy whatever you
do, because that capacity is within you". However, if someone says to their child:
"You must always do what you like", this will generate a huge block in them.
3. Mission
This is what we can teach in the world of matter. We should enjoy our mission
intensely, whether or not it is part of our function.
12
Our mission enables us to recuperate a large amount of the vital energy
invested in the exercise of learning to be happy. Our mission is what we already
understand, what we already know; it can therefore be used to serve others while
bringing enormous enjoyment.
Both our mission and our destiny are represented in our personality: the latter
through our belief system and the former through understanding. As we
progressively transmute our ignorance into understanding and wisdom, we will
increasingly have a bigger mission and therefore more satisfaction.
4. Function
We know that all living beings have a function within the order of the
Universe. It takes wisdom to accept it with joy, enthusiasm, and total capacity for
action and service. One's function does not consist in "earning one's living"; living
is not "earned" because it is a divine gift. What one earns is what supports this
biological entity, this body.
Thus, our support is guaranteed as a result of our function. Those who are
happy and enjoy what they do will always have an abundance of resources at their
disposal.
5. Intention
This is what we want for ourselves or for others. Intention must be directed in
a way that does not interfere with the destinies of others nor seek to avoid our own
destiny.
Intention is the most complex element for human beings today, because
feelings, the idea of kindness and the other ideas that our culture has erroneously
conveyed to us lead us continually to try and interfere in the destinies of others. If
we were to accept that destiny is something extraordinary and not "bad", that it is
the best opportunity we have to fulfill what we came to the world to do, we would
stop trying to change the destiny of others.
When a son or daughter wants to fly the nest and their parents object to it,
how should we act so as not to interfere? We always want things to go our way. In
this case, the parents consider that it is not the right moment for their son or
daughter because they do not have a steady job, for example, and they do not
13
want them to leave home. The "I want's" are the cause of suffering. An "I want" is
also unconscious selfishness because we want others to be happy doing what we
want them to do.
What would be the wise and loving thing to do in this case? To say to the son
or daughter: "What matters most to us is for you to be happy and find your way,
so we respect your decision. We want you to know that if you want to come back
the door will always be open."
In short, wisdom means being clear about our purpose, taking advantage of
our destiny, enjoying our mission, accepting the function and holding the intention
of not interfering in the destiny of others. All this must be practiced in thought,
word and deed.
14
Chapter 1. The discovery of the Laws
"Nature does not respond at random or upon the whim of an emotional and
ill-humored god; behind everything we see there is a Law."
Four hundred years later, physics is the science that has come the closest to
this subtle frontier between what we see and what we do not see, and seems to
have reached the very core of the Laws of nature and how they behave.
The idea that social phenomena, be they collective or individual, are governed
by Laws as exact as those that we have discovered through physics and natural
science may, first of all, logically support the philosophical principle that says:
"Behind every phenomenon there is a Law". Secondly, and this is what is most
attractive: if we accept the existence of Laws for social phenomena, the processes
of our civilization on planet Earth would no longer be just a loose wheel in the
universal panorama. Or, to put it another way, the processes of development of
human beings and their social organizations would also be included in the universal
order and subject, therefore, to the Law of Evolution. Which means that our
present civilization would be just another step in the ascension of consciousness,
and an additional link in the long chain that joins and relates the whole Universe,
from the biggest to the smallest and from the subtlest to the densest. This chain
gives meaning to our past, explains our present, and gives our future direction by
setting it on track towards a new form of civilization in which greater harmony,
wisdom, understanding, love and satisfaction for all human beings will reign.
What remains is the task of verifying through our experience the existence of
this great map that governs the perfect order of the Universe, which affects and
controls our daily life in a direct and forceful way.
15
As soon as we become aware of the existence of the Laws that maintain the
universal order and we prepare to obey them, we begin to form part of the team of
builders of a new evolutionary moment in present civilization. Then we will be able
to understand the reason for our existence on this planet, and give profound
meaning to all the experiences we have here. We will be able to free ourselves
from the belief that someone is to blame and the idea of injustice, by
understanding that all events merely have a perfect pedagogical purpose for us to
discover the Law that governs them and thereby become able to transcend conflict,
illness, pain and death.
Chance does not exist, nor do good or bad luck, there is no unfairness, and
therefore no one who is to blame and no punishment. Accepting this idea involves
conflict, because our mind is full of ideas, concepts and beliefs that are opposed to
the principles of the Universe.
16
Table 1. Within the Law or outside the Law
Everything within the Law functions well What is outside the Law does not
and flows on its own flow
We are within the Law when we value, We are outside the Law when we
love and enjoy complain
The Law is not individual, but rather universal. Yet, what is completely
individual is the understanding of the Law. If people do not understand the Law,
they cannot obey it, so they will not succeed in getting anything to work.
The principles developed by human beings to organize their society, unlike the
Universal Laws, are variable and therefore they are subject to change and repeal.
But to the extent that these principles enable human society to be organized within
certain parameters, which people commit themselves to respect or feel obliged to
obey, we can also call these human rules "Laws of men".
The Laws of men are variable principles that govern the territorial, economic
and social arrangement of human organizations.
The Laws of the Universe are more like the laws of physics, to the extent that
to be able to catalogue them as such, first we have had to verify that each time
they are applied they produce the same result, and that when we learn to manage
them we always obtain a specific purpose. The Laws of the Universe are not written
down in books; that is where the human concepts about God, the Law and order of
the Universe are to be found, but not the truth of them. Every Law is recognized by
the result, because it is not a question of beliefs but of verifiable truths.
17
One cannot accept what one does not understand, and that is why it is
important to study the Laws in order to understand how the Universe functions.
1. The list of what you want. What we want is what we do not have. The "I
want's" can refer to financial characteristics, physical —taller, thinner …—
characteristics, to our family relationships, where we live, etc. This list is
very important, not only for recognizing the Law, but also to progress in
spiritual development.
2. The list of what you have. Starting with things as basic as a body full of
qualities, and following on with our knowledge, experiences, friendships,
family, where we live, work, function, etc. On completing this list we can
ask ourselves how much we value what we have. By recognizing, valuing,
and being grateful for everything we have, which is much more than we
imagine, our results will be more satisfactory in every respect.
3. The list of what is happening around you. What we see on the news, the
behavior of the people around us, social situations, physical events, etc.
The Law is not a belief, it is something that we can verify with the results that
we obtain. We observe our results in the following situations:
18
ü What happens to us when we do not value what we have? What is the
result? That we will begin to lose it, because if what we have is of no
value, then it must be that we do not need it; this will be the
consequence of violating the Law. Valuing everything we have is the key
to prosperity.
ü What can we do to live within the Law, i.e., to obey it? By verifying the
results we stop going against the Law and we understand that all
suffering is associated with breaking a Law. Therefore, if we learn to feel
satisfied with everything we do, we will begin to obey the Law. There are
two types of results: inner —of happiness, peace and love—, and outer —
relationships, health, resources and adaptation to the environment—.
When we do not obtain these results it is because we do not know how to
and therefore we need to learn.
What the Law says is that we cannot stop suffering unless we accept; but we
cannot accept what we have not understood, and we cannot understand something
unless we have an experience that shows us how the Laws of the Universe operate.
To escape from our system of false beliefs and from the ego, we need to
follow this sequence:
19
Chapter 2. The fundamental Laws that govern the
Universe
There are Laws that govern and arrange everything that happens. They are
Laws as obvious as that sowing a specific seed will result in a specific tree, and
sowing another type of seed will result in a different tree. Everything is governed
by Laws, nothing is by chance.
The seven Universal Laws that give rise to all the other processes of
manifestation, creation, operation and comprehension of the Universe, which we
also call evolution, can be arranged according to the function that they fulfill, as
follows:
The three superior Laws are the Laws of Creation. The superior Law is the
Law of Love, since behind every purpose and every event always lies the principle
of Love.
Everything that has form is a creation. There are two types of creations:
those of God/the Absolute and those of human beings. The latter are also in the
Absolute, because nobody can create something from nothing, everything already
exists as information; man participates in the creative capacity of God/the
Absolute.
20
Creation happens when the masculine principle acts with the feminine
principle; and this interaction is governed by the Law of Polarity. The three
elements: the masculine, the feminine and the information that joins them, are
essential for creation to occur.
Love can only be expressed through a pure or innocent mind, never through
a mind that is contaminated with ideas of good and bad, blame, punishment or
vengeance. Therefore, the first thing we need to do for love to be expressed
through us is to cleanse our mind of mistaken concepts.
The Universe and all its processes are within the Law, its functioning is
perfect and absolutely nothing happens that is outside it, because there nothing
is possible. Even whatever seems absurd or unacceptable to us is governed by
exact Laws that are specialized in managing apparent chaos and absurdity, for in
the Universe everything has a purpose and fulfils a specific function.
The Laws have basically two functions: The superior laws govern Creation;
the inferior Laws are the source of the understanding of creation.
21
There are three fundamental processes or principles in the Universe: creation
and the administration of creation —both governed by the superior Laws—; and
the pedagogy of creation —governed by the Law of Evolution—.
The superior Laws handle a greater level of information than the inferior
Laws, and this is the reason for the order of hierarchy. Inversely, the inferior
Laws handle a greater number of processes and complexity than the superior
Laws, and this is the reason for the density and lengthiness of the process of
evolution in the lower triangle, which can require approximately 39,000 years for
the experience in human form, whereas the human process from the fourth to the
seventh level of development of consciousness may take around a thousand
years.
22

• In every creation there is a masculine
principle (transmitter) and a feminine
principle (receiver). The ear is feminine
Polarity and the voice masculine
The creation of the Universe is the response to the Absolute's purpose for
His/Her children: that they be able to codify in their innocent consciousness all of
the information of the Universe and of the Laws that govern it and in this way
become one with Him. The creator of the Universe does this so that it fulfills the
function of being His/Her children's school, taking the total information that exists
in the Absolute.
In daily life we can begin to live in Love when we are ready to respect all
living beings in their functions, experiences and behaviors, and stop using any
type of aggression, imposition, prohibition, punishment, or blame, and let go
once and for all of ideas about evil, injustice, confrontation, power and
domination.
24
2.2 The Law of Manifestation
At the source all is unmanifest at a neutral point or point zero, which is why
the Law of Manifestation is also called the Law of Conciliation, —or resultant of
the union of the extremes—. The Law of Manifestation can be recognized in the
thoughts that enable the creation of new developments for planet Earth.
Care should be taken not to confuse the nonphysical with the unmanifest.
For example, thought is nonphysical, but it manifests in the mind, which is also
nonphysical. Dreams also are not to be found in a physical dimension, but that
does not mean that they are not real, just that they manifest in other nonphysical
dimensions.
25
The absolute dimension (the 40th dimension) or Unmanifest Absolute is
androgynous, that is, it contains both the masculine and feminine principles
simultaneously.
Lastly, all the matter of the Universe is feminine because it is what receives
the information.
26
The Law of Evolution works by pitting opposites against each other, thereby
triggering the confrontation of all our ideas, beliefs, cultures, customs, feelings
and emotions. It allows disequilibrium and apparent absurdity to be within the
Law, and that what is not correspondent in a place to manifest. It creates
circumstances that go against the inferior Laws, acting as an "anti-Law" before
those Laws it contradicts —Nature, Harmony and Correspondence. For this reason
it is also called the Law of Inverse Flow, because the existence of the Law can
only be discovered by going against it; in the same way that the current of the
river can only be recognized by going against it. In other words, a force can only
be measured by putting up resistance to it.
From the individual point of view we recognize that this Law is working
through pain, suffering, anxiety, and physical and mental illness; while socially it
is recognized in "social ills": poverty, insecurity, abuse of authority, sexual
aggression, theft and, in general, everything that has to do with corruption.
The purpose of the Law of Evolution is for us to verify what does not work,
what is false, and to transform beliefs into truths of wisdom. Thanks to this Law,
each of us can move from a state of ignorance to one of wisdom in which we are
invulnerable to any outside influence because we are able to take decisions from
within ourselves since we know exactly what does work.
Each of these three figures serves an extremely important function within the
evolutionary process of human beings.
27
completely ignorant of the Law. The effect of the bad character on the
good is to provide contrast so that they recognize the existence of the
Law, because the feelings of the good character often lead them to
violate the Law of Correspondence, with the result that their lives are
filled with innumerable difficulties. The "bad" character does not
interfere with the Law of Correspondence, but is outside the Law of
Harmony.
28
We cannot move directly from the level of being unfeeling to being
desensitized, but must first go through the intermediate stage characterized by
kind feelings. In the same way that it is not possible to pass directly from
innocence to wisdom, ignorance is a prior step that cannot be omitted.
In life it is more important to fulfill our destiny than to carry out our mission,
because fulfilling our destiny enables us to learn what we do not know and to
understand the Law in order to evolve in the development of our consciousness.
Our mission enables us to teach others what we already know and also to
maintain our inner energy high, and although it does not directly contribute
anything new to our consciousness, it does contribute to the consciousness of
others. This makes it possible for the spiritual growth of others to have a positive
impact on our own growth.
The place where they are born, the race to which they belong, their specific
genetic structure that determines their temperament and physical and mental
potentials, the sign of the Zodiac that influences them, the culture and beliefs
that they acquire, as well as the functions that they are to carry out and, in
general, all the situations that can affect people's lives are wisely determined.
They are therefore perfect for the specific learning of the evolutionary stage at
which each individual finds themselves, and for satisfying the needs of
consciousness until its total development is complete.
29
2.5 The Law of Correspondence
This is Law that governs the universal order. It determines the arrangement
of time, space, location, action and function of all living beings and the relevant
limits of the field of action of the different species.
Once the type of experience required has been determined, together with the
appropriate characteristics and locations for developing a function or a specific
learning experience, the Law of Correspondence creates the circumstances so
that in each place only that which is meant for that place and the people that
inhabit it manifests and happens. For this reason in each place only that which
must exist and happen does, so that nothing happens to anyone that is not
meant to happen to them.
The Law of Correspondence determines where, when, how and to whom the
specific learning experiences designed by the Universe are to happen, in
accordance with their need for evolution; as well as the functions that they are to
perform in the chosen location. Similarly, it determines the mission of Love and
service that each person is to perform, and to whom they are to provide the
relevant service.
The sex, race, parents, nationality and function of an individual have already
been determined long before they are born, together with all the necessary
experiences associated with the destiny and mission that correspond exactly with
the level of consciousness that is coming to take up that body to continue their
process of evolution.
All human beings, without exception, are in the perfect place to learn exactly
what brought them to the physical world. In addition, we always carry out a dual
purpose in accordance with the Law of Correspondence: to learn and to teach.
30
When we have nothing left to learn from the place and circumstances around
us, and we are no longer useful for the learning experiences of the people with
whom we are sharing our lives, we are ready to move on to another place with
different circumstances, which will be just as appropriate and perfect for the
continuing development of our consciousness. In the same way, in the previous
place exactly what has to happen will continue happening, because it is in perfect
correspondence with the people who are there.
The process by which we completely change our life experiences for others
that are increasingly advanced and satisfactory can be compared to the situation
of a student who completes high school and is accepted at university to continue
learning at a higher level. This does not mean that high school ceases to be
necessary and appropriate for the students who are studying at that level. In this
case nobody would consider this unfair.
"A father asked his two adult sons what business they wanted to
set up. One of the sons, let's call him A, was very keen on sport and
wanted to open a gym. The other son, who we will call B, didn't know
what he wanted so he copied his brother and asked his father to open
a gym for him too. The father set up two gyms for them in different
parts of the city, but A thrived while B ended in ruin, complaining that
his gym was not as well-located as his brother's. They changed
places, A went to run B's gym and vice versa. Before long B failed
once again and A was very successful."
What was happening? Well, A came into the world to run a gym and B did
not. That was not his function; he is not good or bad, it was just not for him. He
ended up being employed by his brother, taking orders from him and earning a
wage. That job was not for him. This is how the Law of Correspondence works: it
is what we need that happens, not what we want.
All we need ask in any circumstance is: "What do I need to learn from this?"
Because any situation that we experience is exactly meant for us. Recognizing
this enables us to understand that everyone lives a different experience but one
that is necessary and meant for them.
Our problems are the result of our mistakes, but that does not mean we are
to blame for them, we are just in correspondence with the result: it is not a
question of punishment, but of a result. When we learn to see the value of each
31
experience and to enjoy what we normally call difficulties, nothing will be a
problem, just a work tool, and a learning opportunity.
Difficult situations are not unfair, they are correspondent. There are no unfair
circumstances, everything that has happened in our lives, what is happening now
and what will happen is the generation of our own correspondence, and therefore
we have no reason to blame anything or anybody for it.
This Law regulates the times of action and recovery, like, for example the
length of natural cycles and rhythms, or the arrangement of space so that one
individual does not invade another; and it also regulates human relationships, in
the agreements that we reach. Similarly, it manifests in the proportion and
harmonic distribution of the components of everything that produces a sense of
pleasure and beauty: the Law of Harmony is always present in anything that
pleases, attracts and produces great satisfaction.
32
ourselves, learning from the different situations that life presents us with, and we
willingly decide to eliminate learned or self-imposed limitations from our minds
and overcome psychological traumas and the fear that they trigger in us. By
deciding to flow with the Law of Harmony we can begin a new experience of life in
which our relationships are not conflictive. The key technique for Harmony is
respect, which is expressed by accepting and supplementing personal experiences
with those of others.
Sometimes we mistake being in harmony for being in love, but they are
different Laws. In the center of the scale there is a point that does not move,
regardless of what happens with the Law of Harmony: it is Love. Harmony
regulates the balance between the extremes of the scale, but Love is not affected
by it. We can be in equilibrium without possessing anything of Love, and be in
Love without there being any equilibrium.
Everything that is born, dies. The Law of Nature is horizontal and manifests
within certain vibratory limits, that is, its action unfolds only on the dense plane
of matter and it cannot operate vertically on any of the other Laws that govern
the subtle and follow it hierarchically. All the Laws act on the Law of Nature
simultaneously: the superior acts on the inferior, never the other way round.
This Law establishes the fundamental structure of matter for the processes of
manifestation, by providing and maintaining the bodies of all species of living
beings, as a result of which it is also called Mother Nature. It governs the densest
manifestations, that is, all that we call physical worlds, and it determines the
characteristics and functioning of all the bodies within which consciousness
develops.
The Law of Nature manifests through the four great realms of creation —
mineral, vegetable, animal and human—, and is recognized in their natural state,
in the harmony of their manifestation and in the equilibrium that all species
maintain within the immense diversity of creation. It can also be observed in the
state of purity and constant renewal of all species of living beings, and in the
perfection of their genetic combinations, the functioning of which is based on the
reproduction and repetition of the processes that keep the bodies in perfect
conditions of health and vitality. This Law does not allow the deterioration or
33
degeneration of species, which it destroys implacably when for some reason they
become weak.
Nature is perfect and its alterations are the result of violating the Law of
Nature. This may occur due to an external action permitted by a higher Law,
which alters the normal state of harmony and perfection of nature, producing as a
consequence the weakening of immune systems, hereditary defects,
malformations, hybrids, environmental pollution, disease and degenerative
processes. However, this all serves to recognize the presence of the Law of
Nature and to learn to respect and obey it.
Once we recognize which Laws govern the natural processes, we can find
ourselves in four states:
We act within the Law of Nature when we follow our instinct, which is like the
mind of nature. All the necessary processes for keeping species in a perfect state
of health are engraved in the instinct. This Law acts through constant
reproduction, natural selection and the depredation that makes up the food
chains. Its code is binary, because it does not admit mid-points between birth
and death, like imperfection, weakness or illness.
Thanks to the process of civilization, human beings have lost our instinctive
guidance in the aspect of maintaining health, as a result of which we sometimes
do not know what, when or how much to eat, or how to combine foods. The
instinct knows all this by nature, but we have gradually desensitized it, and it
would therefore be important to renew these capabilities.

The idea is to start managing instinct by observing what our body tells us. To
handle conflicts, however, and to make progress in our spiritual development, we
should not follow instinct, nor fight or flee. It is better to use reason or
understanding, and as we do that habitually we will ultimately end up by
switching off the automatic defense system, or instinct for survival, because it will
not be necessary.
The Law of Nature is very strong, but it handles much less information than
the other Laws. It has the strength of a bull, but we need to learn how to "tame
it" so that it obeys us and we do not have to fight with it.

Chapter 3. Recognizing the effect of the Law
The effects of the Laws of the Universe can be analyzed from two
standpoints: either from the ego or from understanding. If we look at life from
the ego, we take ourselves outside the Law to the "I want"; "I want others to
change, I want things to happen the way I want them to, I want everything that I
don't need, all that I don't have". If, on the other hand, we look at life from
understanding or wisdom, we flow with the Law and our approach is that of "I
need": "I need everything I have".
ü I do not seek anything because I know that what I need is there and I
can make use of it.
We must let ourselves be guided and also let go of others, not try and
control them. Let's go and flow with life instead of putting up resistance to it. To
do that we must give up the "I want", "I seek", and "I ask for". It is a matter of
working on two things: inquiry —which is not the same as seeking— and acting.
With these two tools everything we need will come to us, and what comes to us
we must value. That is all we need to do. When we ask life, life will either say
"yes" to us —by providing us with what we desire— or "no" —what we desire will
be blocked and we will find it impossible— . If the answer is "no", then the best
thing is to give it up, and if the answer is "yes", we take it and act.
When we do not want anything, our inner self drives us to be obedient with
the Law, to direct our lives wisely and to satisfy our needs; it leads us to know
the Law. When we do not want anything, we are giving a service of Love, because
instead of asking or wishing for things what we do is act. And when we serve with
Love we find the way to equilibrium and wisdom.
38
When we seek for nothing, we act with absolute faith –if we do not yet have
sufficient understanding– or with absolute wisdom.
When we do not ask for anything it is because we are following the order of
the Universe and are ready to receive the information to be able to act. In this
way we lead ourselves towards wisdom.
All this manifests in our lives as humility. Humility is an inner virtue that is
expressed when someone is able to admit a mistake, learn from it, apologize as
necessary and consider everyone as valuable as themselves, even if they are in
different positions. Not seeking things leads us to tranquility and inner peace, by
eliminating expectations from our lives. By not expecting anything we are
imperturbable; and by not asking for anything, our lives become perfect because
we can flow with the order of the Universe. When someone does that, they
recognize and accept what life gives them; and the Universe always gives us
everything that we need.
We should not suffer life, but enjoy it. We should recognize that we can
choose and act with the options that life offers us. Life always presents us with
options, it is just that sometimes we do not take them because they do not agree
with our ego.
When we do not seek anything, we keep our life's goal in mind, without
questioning destiny because we are not looking for anything else than what we
have; life always gives us what is necessary for us to utilize.
When we act from what we truly need we are not asking for the
circumstances of the Universe to change, but are respecting individual and
collective processes and setting an example of neutrality and understanding.

3.2 "I want"
When we seek something, our personality and our ego lead us to think that
we know what is good for us and for others. But in fact we need to inquire in
order to find out. If we act thinking that we know what we need, what do we
encounter? Opposition, so that we can see that this is not the way things are.
Sometimes we do not recognize that something is not for us and we insist; we
blame circumstances or ourselves because we believe that not everyone has the
same opportunities. But opportunities are always there, it is just that some
people take advantage of them and others do not. The ego lays blame, we feel
full of limitations and we become frustrated. That is the result of "I want".
Driven by our ego we ask for things to change, we ask for peace, we ask and
ask, but things do not happen because we are not following the order of the
Universe. Nothing happens in the way one asks for, it happens in the way it has
to happen, but often our ego does not accept that each individual has exactly
what they need, and that is why things do not flow and what we get is suffering
and frustration. We may even become depressed about not getting what we
want, or blame others, which makes the conflict even bigger.

3.3 A suggestion for flowing with the Law
To flow with the Law we suggest using two tools: expressing gratitude and
valuing.
When we learn how to express gratitude, in the true sense of the word, our
mind is cleansed of all grudges, resentment and blame, as well as any urge to
attack. Those negative aspects keep us anchored to suffering and to its limiting
effect on our actions, that weigh us down both financially and in terms of health.
Each one of us can flow with the Law and thus transmute our destiny into
mission, but to do that we need to express gratitude and value what we have,
and love the function we fulfill. What we need can be summed up in three points:
ü Wisdom-related information.
ü Training.
43
Chapter 4. The Laws of Life
When we are not aware of the Laws of Life some events seem miraculous to
us and we cannot understand why they happen: others seem normal, and we do
not consider them important, but there are others that seem so absurd and
unacceptable that we go so far as to consider the possibility that either God does
not exist or is unable to administer human society. What really happens,
however, is that most people have not yet learnt how to recognize the signs
Divinity uses to express itself to enable us to recognize the Law and Perfect Order
of the Universe. This means that we are witnessing the result of the ignorance of
many people who battle against the Laws of Life, wasting most of the
opportunities there are to learn how to reach high levels of human and social
satisfaction.
Unawareness of the Laws of Life leaves an individual with very few chances
of avoiding the situations that exceed their capacity for action, which on many
occasions become repetitive, leaving them unable to do anything about it except
grumble and complain about their "bad luck". In fact it is not bad luck, but just
that they are experiencing the result of unconsciously disobeying the Laws of Life.
In the same way, we see that many people miss the best opportunities simply
because they do not know how the Laws of Life operate.
Being aware of the Laws of the Universe and the Laws of Life enables us to
develop the skill of transmuting our destiny into mission, thus succeeding in
turning adverse circumstances into opportunities for learning and teaching,
voluntarily balancing our destiny and our mission, and in this way obtaining
maximum benefit from the experience of life. This skill is developed by learning
how to recognize in our daily existence a number of clear indicators, inner ones —
happiness, peace and love— and outer ones —relationships with others, health,
resources and adaptation—.
There are numerous Laws of Life, but here we are going to focus on the 14
main ones:
44
5. The Law of Communicating Vessels
Nothing happens in our lives that has not been previously announced,
although at times we have difficulty seeing the "warnings".
When we begin to understand what the learning of life is, our ideas become
clearer and mental confusion disappears, making way for a new experience.
Problems begin to be seen as opportunities for learning, what was difficult
becomes easy, and the appropriate tools are acquired to establish excellent
relationships, stabilize physical health, achieve abundance and prosperity and
enjoy life immensely anywhere doing any activity that we are meant to do.
45
Life, like educators, also intends our learning to be as least traumatic as
possible. However, our ignorance, stubbornness, pride and learned limitations,
often lead us to face situations that are increasingly difficult and at times
dramatic, due to our inability to observe, read and obey the signs of life that
manifest in the Law of Warning. When this happens, we complain about "bad
luck" resigning ourselves to our "destiny", without knowing that each of us is the
architect of our own destiny, and that it is designed in accordance with our own
level of ignorance.
Life gives us advance warning about difficulties that we can avoid if we are
prepared to follow the order of the Universe; otherwise our lives will become
complicated to give us another opportunity to learn to obey the Laws. For
something to be classified as a warning there has to be a block, i.e., something
that does not work, that does not flow in any way. When there are difficulties but
we observe that nevertheless things are making progress, albeit slowly, we will
know that we can work in that direction.
We can learn from life in a simple and pleasant manner, and even enjoy the
learning, if we forget about "free will" and we devote ourselves to obeying the
Law of Warning. Disobeying the Law will always be a cause of suffering, but it is
the only way that those who are ignorant, disobedient, arrogant, stubborn and
proud have of discovering the existence of the Law; and how? By confronting it
with their high ideas about freedom, independence and sufficiency in order to
finally discover that the only way of freeing themselves from all pain, conflict and
suffering is to obey the Law. Suffering ends at the limit of our ignorance, that is,
where our understanding begins.
46
succeed in teaching us new attitudes to life; because the easier trials were not
sufficient to induce understanding and a change in attitude.
The possibilities of the Law of Warning are almost infinite. However, there is
one trait that defines them fairly accurately, because in most cases they appear
as details that are apparently unrelated to the situation, which can only be
interpreted by the person for whom they are intended due to the relationship
between the warning and the intended action. For example: someone tells us
something about a place without knowing that we intend to go there, they speak
to us about a business without knowing that we are thinking of setting it up. On
other occasions people we do not know tell us things that are related to the
situations we are experiencing; or otherwise what we were thinking of doing is
blocked.1
It is not that someone who has failed is unlucky, it is that they are not within
the Law, they do not know it or they do not know how to be governed by it, and
they violate it unknowingly. It is not that someone who is successful is lucky, it is
that they are flowing with the Law, even if they do not know it. A wise person
flows with the Law knowingly and everything just goes well for them. Successful
people do not place limitations on what life offers them. For example, they accept
1
Carl Jung called situations in which the person experiencing them sees significance and
meaning, and those in which actual events coincide with states of mind "meaningful coincidences",
or synchronicity. It would be the psychological event of the individual that determines the
meaningful coincidence. For Jung the unconscious part of the psyche has to do with these
manifestations; they are trans-psychic experiences because they go beyond the psychic and
manifest in the physical. According to Jung, what is speaking to us is our unconscious, not the
Universe …
47
a job offer even if the function seems difficult to perform, even if it is poorly paid,
even if it takes a lot of effort, even if initially they do not know how to do it …
If what we do, say and think is not consistent, we create a disorder in the
flow of the Universe and everything is blocked for us. If we rebel against our
function and we do not value it, resources are blocked, in the same way as if we
refuse to receive because we think we do not deserve it or we feel guilty. If we do
not adapt to where we live and we try and find another function in a different city
or a different country and everything becomes difficult, the best thing is to give
up the idea of leaving to get out of the block, and decide instead to adapt to
where we are. Another reason why resources may become blocked is because we
interfere in other people's destiny and "play the good guy" by paying someone
else's debts, for example. That intention goes against the Laws of the Universe,
which will block us for trying to interfere.
Just as the Law of Warning helps us avoid unnecessary problems in life, the
Law of Opportunity offers us the possibility of finding great satisfactions. Both
Laws are recognized in the small, subtle details of life.
Many people reject opportunities because they mistakenly think: "This is not
for me, I don't like it, it's not my turn, there's not a good atmosphere, there's no
motivation, I'm not appreciated, I can't stand it anymore, etc." And in that way
they miss the best opportunities that life offers them. An opportunity may present
itself with simple signs like, for example, someone asking us a favor, our boss
telling us to do a job we have never done, or someone we do not know giving us
the card of someone who can help us.
Let us consider an example: someone had made great efforts to finance his
degree in psychology, but could not find a job as a psychologist. One day he was
48
offered a very lowly job, but little by little his workmates began to tell him their
problems and they found his advice very useful. It seemed unfair to him not to be
paid for doing this and that the company psychologist did not resolve the cases,
but because he knew the Laws of the Universe he continued to work with
enthusiasm, helping everyone who was sent to him free of charge and, magically,
the psychologist handed in her resignation and he was hired to take her place.
Life always has the answers ready whenever we inquire. The Law of Two
manifests through a binary language (yes-no) that is recognized in what is
facilitated and what is blocked. This Law only responds to questions that are
asked by means of action. The Universe does not respond to inertia; we must ask
about what is meant for us through action.
So that we do not stray from the pedagogical processes governed by the Law
of Evolution, by using our "free will" we will discover that life blocks what is not
meant for us, whereas it does allow us to follow that path if, instead, it is meant
for us.
Our inquiry actions should be directed at obtaining life's response, which may
be different than the one we want. Therefore, if we are going to look for a job, we
will look at the companies that we like the most as well as at the ones we like the
least. Sometimes life has great satisfactions in store for us where the personality
refuses to work. Sometimes it is precisely there where we can most serve and be
fulfilled as human beings, and the only way to find out is to inquire of life.
However, in order to follow a logical order in the process of inquiring of life, it is
suggested that we always start our questions by directing them at the things or
experiences we would most like to obtain. If after a reasonable period of time we
do not obtain affirmative answers, then it is important to inquire about things
that we have been refusing to consider as an option for our lives.
Inquiry actions can be very varied, because we can inquire anything of life:
from what to study, wear or eat, to how to enjoy ourselves, where to travel,
49
where to work or live, what businesses to set up, how and with whom to have
relationships, etc.
To stay within the Law, we must use what we possess and enjoy what life
gives us. In this case, "I want", as a tool of inquiry, is healthy. If we want
something and when we ask for it we receive it, then it was not a simple "I want",
but a necessity for our function. If, on the contrary, we do not receive it, we will
dispose with it, because we are being told that it is not what we need. By doing
this exercise we put an end to conflicts and mental dualities.
The Law of Three allows reasonable perseverance with regard to life's options
and our personal expectations. However, on many occasions what we have is not
perseverance, but stubbornness in the face of certain circumstances in which the
Law of Warning is telling us "no".
When we have a doubt about a given situation, the wisest course of action is
to make at least three attempts to ensure that it is not a lack of perseverance;
and, of course, each time to observe the result obtained. If some progress can be
seen, however small, the purpose has chances of success; but if, on the contrary,
stagnation or backward movement is observed, it is better to desist from the
purpose to avoid falling into stubbornness or disobedience of the Law. However, if
we are still not sure of the answer we can try up to a maximum of seven
times, because stubbornness will only lead us to achieve what we want, but not
what we need for our development.
The Law of Three is the Law which streamlines the use of vital energy. At
times we can achieve what we want but at a very high cost, or wasting energy
uselessly, because such situations contribute little to our learning. A typical
example of wasting vital energy is trying to change someone else, because that is
impossible.
There are no good or bad businesses, jobs or places, just those that are right
for some people and others that are not. Learning to distinguish these situations
can save us a great deal of energy and suffering in life, because where one
person fails, another is successful; what is an excellent business for one person
can be the worst for another. The best way of knowing what is right for us is to
use the Law of Three, for life has a specific function for each person.
50
Table 6. Perseverance vs. stubbornness
Perseverance Stubbornness
Energy is consumed and there are Energy is expended but there are no
results results
This Law manages the loss or the taking of energy, because only someone
who has, can give; anyone who does not have, can only receive.
We often waste a great deal of energy, and without realizing it find ourselves
exhausted by certain people, situations, jobs or external or internal conflicts. As
we will show, this is explained by a principle of physics called the "Law of
Communicating Vessels".
The Law of Communicating Vessels applies to all the situations in our lives,
and it is one of the great secrets of wisdom; for the level of vital energy we have
available for benefiting from life's experience and achieving immense levels of
satisfaction in every sense depends on managing this Law.
51
Managing the Law of Communicating Vessels appropriately requires us to be
very careful when selecting our friendships, relationships, businesses, where we
live, work, the places we go to and the thoughts we accept. In addition, we have
to train ourselves constantly to manage the feelings and negative emotions that
arise spontaneously in the presence of certain individuals, situations, or news that
we receive, in order not to give energy away involuntarily.
52
finding job opportunities or from being able to generate anything, because we are
in a state of low energy.
By knowing the cause that is the origin of every result that we obtain, the
best way of achieving excellent results in our lives is:
53
ü To wish everyone the best, particularly those with whom we have had
conflicts.
ü To render the best service to others, without restriction and without any
conditions.
The mind becomes saturated after it has discovered that opposition and
suffering are futile. It is only then that it is ripe to receive new information that
will lead it to obtain successful results. No one succeeds in transcending suffering
without having suffered.
54
At each instant we are building our future. Everything that has been created
in our mind —consciously or unconsciously— manifests as the reality in which we
live.
All creation begins with a thought or an idea that is then translated into the
related actions, with everything that was previously created in a person's mind by
their thoughts and imagination manifesting in their life in a mathematically exact
manner. However, the generation of the external circumstances is governed by
the Laws of Evolution and Correspondence, whose purpose is for the person to
change their conception about life and adopt new behavior in the circumstances
that life presents them with so that they can succeed in understanding and
accepting what they are missing.
When we understand that nothing and no one can harm us, but that it is we
who generate all our life circumstances, we can start right there creating a new
life. In order to do that we need to learn to acquire a taste for everything we do,
and to see the value of every experience we have —particularly the most difficult
ones—. In other words, it is a question of enjoying learning until we achieve
invulnerable peace, total happiness and the constant expression of love towards
all people and all things.
Our thoughts, words and deeds today are the seeds of the fruit that we will
harvest in the future. What are the seeds that we are sowing today in thought,
word and deed? If we sow within ourselves acceptance, peace, trust,
commitment, loyalty, service, enthusiasm, joy, self-confidence, calmness,
flexibility, adaptation and understanding of the value of the experiences that we
have, we will begin to harvest excellent results from now on.
55
change, so does everything outside us. Success in life is not possible unless our
inner attitude is one of success.
Each individual is the generator of all the situations in their life, and other
people are the instruments they choose in order to be able to have the
experience that they decide to learn.
Examples of interaction:
56
Within economic systems the compensation is usually money. However,
people can establish other non-monetary forms of compensation. Yet in order to
remain within the Law of Harmony, it is essential for there always to be a clearly
defined compensation. This is the only way for us to remain in balance with the
Universe, and to ensure that the sources that generate the products and services
which make human well-being possible at all social levels are kept active and
efficient.
Receiving without giving produces poverty and people who are unable to
serve, create, act, accept their life or commit to some activity; in addition to the
disastrous results that arise from the increase in poverty, which generates all
kinds of psychosocial ills.
When sharing (giving and receiving) information, people can find themselves
in one of the following four situations:
57
person who is receiving the false information, so that they can perform
for themselves the process of verifying the information, and thereby
learn to cleanse their mind of all acquired limitations. Blaming
something or someone for our own results shows personal ignorance.
58
teaching or for the creation of goods, products or services, is always governed by
the Law of Compensation.
ü When we recognize that we do not know, we can set about learning and
opening the flow of wisdom information to us.
Evaluation of results
59
4.11 The Law of Affinity
All beings of similar character tend to convene in the same place. Our
personal mental condition creates affinity that attracts what is similar to it in the
outer world.
In order to develop internally the characteristics that are in tune with places,
situations and people with a high level of satisfaction, it is essential to keep a
constant watch on our thoughts, because they are the tool that programs the
mind and maintains or transforms the personality, which is the source of all the
human attitudes and behaviors that may determine our success or failure in our
life experience.
The best always associate with the best. Everything that we choose to feed
internally produces situations, people and places in line with that energy.

61
4.12 The Law of Empty Spaces
Any empty space tends to become filled with something new, which means
that everything that leaves our lives or our minds will be replaced with something
new.
Under the Law of Empty Spaces we are always accompanied, never alone;
the feeling of loneliness is no more than a mental limitation, because it is
impossible to be alone. Attachments, dependencies, the feeling of loneliness or
abandonment that many people experience are the result of not recognizing or
accepting the need to manage the Law of Empty Spaces.
Let us remove from the mind everything that is not satisfactory to make
space for the new. By allowing the thoughts and attitudes of the ego to leave our
lives, we are opening up space for the energy of wisdom to enter.
The Option of Love makes it possible to pass the tests that life presents. The
option of pride makes it impossible to pass through the gate to the realm of love,
peace and happiness.
62
overcome, which trigger in us states of anxiety, suffering, aggression,
defensiveness, stress, guilt, anger, resentment, hate, vengeance and violence so
common to human experiences.
63
although we may justify our behavior, it is often a consequence of our ignorance.
We need to dismantle justifications, because it is not things or people that upset
us, it is we who are upset with them. When we realize that the problem is ours
and not someone else's, anger immediately disappears, because the justification
that was maintaining the bad temper leaves the mind. Consider this example:
You're the company accountant. You go to look for a document in the files and it's
not there. Your usual reaction might be to get annoyed with your secretary, who's
responsible for filing everything; you're furious and you tell her off. Your
secretary calmly says: "Don't you remember? You're the one who took the
document out, then I gave it back to you, and you forgot to put it back in the
filing cabinet …". The anger and irritation disappear right there, because there is
no justification."
Justifications are a type of archive that makes us suffer and get upset, it
damages our relationships and prevents us from being successful in life.
Justifications lead us to have negative reactions, blame others, not take
responsibility for our own processes and enter states of crisis, bitterness,
frustration and depression, resulting in total blockage of our lives. We learn
justifications through dreadful pedagogical systems or inappropriate information,
and with phrases such as: "When someone doesn't greet you, be cross; when
someone misses an appointment, be cross and tell them off; when you see your
partner with someone else, feel ill, jealous and distressed; when your son or
daughter goes out without your permission, punish them ..." This is how we
generate our archive of justifications.
The Option of Love consists in being happy that someone else is happy, not
in wanting to be right. We suggest taking advantage of all the opportunities that
life presents us with to free ourselves from pride. To achieve this we can do the
exercise of not contradicting anyone who disagrees with us —in simple,
unimportant things, to start with—.
As explained, the ego is a weapon that we use to fight against life, which
does not allow us to establish good relationships or achieve success. Once we
effectively replace the ego's weapons with the tools of love, we are ready to
become human beings of peace and love, and to train ourselves in the use of the
tools.

This is the Law that makes it possible to evaluate whether life's tests have
been transcended. Life never repeats a destiny situation that has already been
understood.
There are no negative situations or circumstances, nor bad people who want
to cause us harm, these are often just situations, circumstances and people with
whom we are correspondent for carrying out our learning processes, although we
do not yet understand them or take advantage of them efficiently.
In any difficult situation we should ask ourselves: "What can I learn from this
situation?" We may not find the answer immediately, and therefore the situation
will continue to be present. But when we understand what life is really trying to
teach us with each difficult situation, we can use the tools of love, which will
enable us to transcend personal destiny and all of the difficulties arising from it.
Understanding gives us the ability to use the seven tools of love. We suggest
using the seven things we give up when using the tools of love in order not to slip
into the behaviors of the ignorant.
66
The ignorant:
In the world of matter and form there are no "bad" or "good" things,
everything is neutral and necessary, and nothing happens to anyone that is not
meant for them. The drama occurs when we face situations from emotion and
ignorance, instead of understanding. Destiny is an opportunity for us to develop
67
spiritually, but if we do not seize it we will make dramas and tragedies grow
around us.
The Laws of Life that have been explained here form part of the Laws of the
Universe, but they are closer to us. The seven Laws of the Universe act constantly
and simultaneously, whereas we can be governed or not by the Laws of Life
depending on our understanding or lack of understanding.
However, ignorance of the Laws does not exempt anyone from the result;
besides which, it is not enough to know them, we must be able to manage them
through training.
68
Conclusions
ü Being aware of the existence of the Laws of the Universe and of Life
helps us to free ourselves from suffering, conflicts and fear.
ü Respecting the experiences of others and being ready to serve them not
subject to any conditions is to express love in human relations.
ü In each place only that which must exist and happen does, and nothing
happens to anyone that is not meant for them.
69
ü Through our activities (roles) we learn what we need (destiny) and we
fulfill the purpose of love in life (mission).
ü I can't stop suffering unless I accept; I can't accept what I have not
understood; and I cannot understand unless I have had the experience,
or I know how the Laws of the Universe operate.
None of what has been said here should be believed, nothing should be
taken as true or fact; we must practice and verify whether in our own lives this
information works and produces satisfactory results.
70
Training Exercises
In order to flow with the Laws and manage vital energy it is helpful to repeat
the following phrases very frequently:
ü "People are not good or bad. Everyone does the best they can according
to their level of ignorance or wisdom."
ü "I'm the most important person for me and I'm committed to making
myself happy."
Once you have this information, you must verify whether it is true through
the internal and external results that you obtain from your experiences.
To act as "the wise" do, practice exercises to desensitize feelings with mental
reprogramming in difficult situations. When facing your own mistakes or those of
others, try to find what is positive behind them, i.e., learning, so that your
conflicts disappear and you are able to stop suffering.
Think always the best, say what is appropriate and do what is necessary.
71
To recognize the warning you must observe the signs, which may be
anywhere. For example, if someone you do not know offers you a card and tells
you to ring them, or if you lose your wallet despite being very organized.
This involves making a list of things that you would like to do but that you
have not yet done. Give yourself the opportunity of inquiring of life whether what
you would like to do is available to you or not. If it is, it will be perfect, if it is not,
you just accept it.
For example, you would like to travel to Africa. By finding out about the trip
and how much it costs you will understand whether you can do it or not, and in
either case it will be marvelous, because life is answering your question. With this
exercise we want to verify life's answer, not the one we want or imagine, in order
to learn to obey the Law.
If you always do the same thing with the same attitude, you will always
obtain the same results. Change the information, change the attitude and you will
change the results.
