The law of compensation states that for every loss there is a gain and for every thing we gain there must be a loss. It comes back to the single most fundamental principle of the universe. Everything is energy and energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed or mutated from one form to another.

Let me explain with some simple examples:

You leave one job to take another job, your boss pays you money, in return for that money he loses, you do work for him which makes him more money. You spend your money to buy new shoes, in return for the money you lose you get to walk around in the new shoes, the shoe shop owner loses the shoes but gains the money to buy himself a new watch, the watch dealer loses a watch but gains the money and the cycle is endless.

A tree falls down in the forest, making way for another tree to grow in its place, the fallen tree is burned to make heat, the heat is used to cook food, the food is eaten to provide energy for the person, after consumption of the food, the human waste goes back into the earth and acts as a fertilizer which in turn provides energy for more growth and once again the cycle continues.

There are no exceptions to the law of compensation. No person or thing can escape the effects of this universal law. Like all of the universal laws, this unseen force is always working whether we are aware of it or not. It is an extension of the law of cause and effect, or, for every action there must be a reaction. With an understanding of this law we can learn to live in peace and harmony, without greed or envy. A rich man may have money but no time to spend it, a poor man may have no money but an abundance of free time. One woman might grow old and be in pain, another person might die young but feels healthy. The rich man might have money but trying to keep it causes him great stress, the poor man has no stress and is happy.

When we understand how the law of compensation works, we can use it to our advantage in so many ways. One way the law of compensation works wonderfully is to create abundance. Considering this law works on the principle, for every action there must be a reaction. If we give we must receive. This is true for it is a universal law. What goes around comes around, if we give charity in the form of money or we give our time to help someone, we will be rewarded. It might not happen immediately but it will happen.

Often people sabotage their own good deeds by not believing they are worthy of their just reward. They have a subconscious belief that they are in poverty and they dont deserve to be prosperous. When we learn to let go of these fears we open the floodgates to wealth and success. The law of compensation works hand in hand with the law of attraction in that what we think about is what we get in our lives. If we focus on positive thoughts, words and actions when we do something to help someone or when we give charity to benefit others we will receive our compensation from the universe. The universe will compensate you when you believe in the process, its all you need to do. If you give money you may very well get money back in some way but you may be compensated in another way by being offered a great job or given a free meal.

This law works every time when you believe and the more faith you have in the process the faster your compensation will appear in your life. Please feel free to read the Law of Tenfold Return article on this website for some startling information on manifesting money fast.
