Similar to the Law of Cause and Effect (Causation), the Law of Compensation is simply harvesting the fruit of your labour. Whereas a small act causes a return, in the Law of Compensation it is more about how you devote your time.

If you want something to happen, you work on that area in your life. It applies to all aspects of your life, too. If you want to be an electrician, for instance, you may need an apprenticeship or college training or a mixture of both. You need to make a commitment and student diligently. You also need supervision whilst you practice and eventually become a qualified electrician.

On a personal level you will get back what you give out. If you spend your life sharing love, love will be returned to you. If you give out judgment and hate, it will also be returned to you.

Spiritually, though, it is a balance between spiritual and material things. We need material things and, depending on our means, it is nice to have some luxuries in our life. However, the danger is that material things can become so important to us that we leave little or no room for spiritual things. Whether you believe in a next life or not, you can’t take material things with you. Materialism can also affect your relationship with others because you will need to concentrate more on secular work and less time with family and friends. It is the Law of Compensation.
