The Principle of Vibration

“Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.”

From the densest matter to pure Spirit, everything is in vibratory motion and differs only in its rate of vibration. Thoughts and emotions have their own frequencies too — which is why mastering your vibration is, in this teaching, the lever that moves everything else.

Also known as

The same law appears across traditions under different names.

  • “Nada Brahma — the world is sound”· Vedic
  • “In the beginning was the Word”· Christian (John 1:1)
  • “Om — the primordial vibration”· Hindu

How to apply it

  • Direct attention with will: Will moves Attention, and Attention changes the Vibration.
  • Spend a few minutes lifting your emotional state before any important conversation or decision.
  • Treat a bad mood as a frequency to be re-tuned, not a fact to be obeyed.
