Resources for Learning about the LOA
This is by no means a complete list of resources that address the Law of Attraction and related concepts. There are thousands of titles, and many more authors not listed here. But hopefully, this is a good start.
Ancient writings
Bible (Christian teachings) “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believe, you shall receive it” --(Matthew 21:22)
Tri-piṭaka (Buddhist teachings) “We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.” – Buddha (500 BCE)
Bagavad Gita (Hindu teachings) “Man is made by his beliefs. As he believes so he is.” (Also see Vedas, Hinduism’s oldest texts, c.2500 BCE)
Tao Te Ching (Taoist teachings) presumed to be written by Lao Tzu, (500 BCE) “Watch your thoughts, they become your words; watch your words, they become your actions; watch your actions, they become your habits; watch your habits, they become your character; watch your character, it becomes your destiny.”

Books about creativity and visualization –since LOA is all about being a deliberate creator, I think books that teach you visualization techniques or that help get you in touch with your creativity are very helpful. There are hundreds of titles out there to choose from. Two examples from the meet-up session are: Visualization for Change, by Patrick Fanning and the Sark books, such as A Creative Companion.
