I intend to do much more with this in the near future. And I have some surprises, confessions and much more to share with you.

Great website!! Keep up the good work!!

I see time and time again many people willing to criticise others for their unpaid off work rather than put forward a genuine offer. Some times they even put them down in regards to the level of their genuine contribution..
A whole commune some time ago thought tradesman to be a lower life form and they should not be able to come into town because they were not rich enough..
Eventually these people no longer serviced the area. So the problem remained who's going to fix things..

You should never undermine the efforts of your fellow friends Rick. Unless you had made an offer?.

Thats just not true.
To make that mention about the starving poverty people 'their thinking and positioning creates the situations they are in'.
These people in such circumstances often smile when they are even poorly nourished.
They are often happy. And of course they also experience great despair. They have so little and yet they are more than grateful when given something. Most of them have even greater values than some of our very own 1st world successors e.g. such as Dealers and deadbeats of all kinds..

Clearly I never did totally dismiss the Secret. But I would urge you to attempt to take a moment to understand the conditions of such lives and completely understand it. And by no means would that suggest going to be a part of it.

As for the use of talking about the bills.. This would be a highly influential point of call to make the viewer see things your way. considering more than half the world is oppressed they may even be attracted to buy another copy.

Most of all some people are such believers in some things that they convince themselves and become arrogant about unfortunate things in the world which need to be addressed. This particularly falls on those in power at most, with few Exceptions.
The secret 'so to speak' would only work if those who believed or knew of this practice, also became responsible as people.. Not just 1000 or 50,000 of them. We would need to be talking in the millions.

But-to examine one of the favorite accusations of the critics-why, for example, do children get abused or get illnesses when they are too young to-we assume-"think thoughts" about such things?
There is a burgeoning amount of evidence from persons who, under hypnosis or other forms of conscious regression techniques that shows that we do indeed feel what parents are going through emotionally before we are born, while in our mother's uterus.
People have checked out their impressions with their parents where possible, and have had them confirmed. It is, therefore, entirely possible for a child to be born giving off the "energy", if you will indulge me with this much-bandied word- of being a potential object of abuse, or the "energy" of the fear of the mother dreading the loss of that child perhaps through a disease or accident, a fear she may not even know the roots of herself. Or the loss of the child as an indirect way of resolving a conflict with the father, or of not being entirely sure that she truly wants to be a mother at all. The variations, obviously, are infinite.
"Thought" is not just a clearly seen picture with sounds and words. "Thought" can be just a strong emotion, a sensation connected with a picture/words/sounds that the person may not be conscious of. It may be a vague, blurry image and mutterings. Whatever it is, you must finally be experiencing it as an emotion, which will inform the actions you take in the world consciously, or that "move you" to act UNCONSCIOUSLY.
Which brings me to the victims of wars, of famines and other disasters.
I would assume you know that religion is a part of most people's lives in most cultures.
I have not studied all world religions. But I have noted that the concept of being the active creator of your life has been considered by some of these religions to be information available to only the high initiates of "mystical" schools; something you had to be chosen and endure much rigorous training and indoctrination to be allowed to learn. For what I feel is political reasons, the "high priests" of many religions thought it is better that the unwashed masses remain passive and helpless, the better for those in "power" to control. That said, there is a widespread belief that God-this is in many, many of the world's cultures-is a punisher who must be appeased and pleaded with, who may or may not listen to you, or care. And many cultures have very fatalistic belief systems that predict disasters upon themselves, or who think suffering is necessary and even holy. Without writing a book here, I think I have made my point. As others who responded to Kenrick's post have said, no-one CONSCIOUSLY chooses losses, disaster, poverty, disease. BUT!!! The real story is in one's beliefs, in one's unconscious assumptions about life, in one's "religious" programming, and in the muttering at the edge of consciousness that we do not even notice, but which we fail to listen clearly to and change at our peril.

As for the secret, if you don't get it, then you will never get it immediately as you are watching it, and after you have time to reflect on the wisdom that is outlined.

It's been exciting/interesting to watch someone take a public domain book, struggle to get the movie produced, and look how much it has enriched the lives of the participants. I'll bet their sales of products and services have gone through the roof.

I only wish one item would have been added, and concentrated and stressed a little more and it's been mentioned in the comments several times already.

DO SOMETHING, DO ANYTHING, because just sitting around and thinking the cosmic force, or GOD for that matter isn't going to get you what you want. As it says in the Bible, GOD helps those who helps themselves.

In any case, we can still have some fun here, despite the illusion(s).

PS: but while you are having some fun attracting abundance iinto your life, or lessons, do remember that you are in a dream or illusion and don't yet realize it. And at some point you will awaken and forget the figures in the dream. And you will once again, realize that you have never left the Divine Domain. Never. This world is just a temporary perturbation in Consciousness or the Divine. It'a already gone. But YOU, as the Witness Consciousness still have your Attention, or the root of Mind, on images in the desert.

I adamently disagree, and would ask that you explore the choices and decisions you have made in this regard. The Secret highlights the point that it is our CHOICES, our THINKING which then attracts our resulting situation.

Are the starving in Ethopia or the people of Darfur actively "choosing" their fate? I would respond no they are not, but their thinking and positioning creates the situations they are in. Just like concentrating on what you do not want, inevitably brings more and more of that which you don't want. Try this . . . Do NOT think about a pink elephant . . . what do you see in your mind. Worry about not having enough money to pay the bills . . . hmmmm, what do you get?

I ask you to consider changing your thinking and give it a try . . . perhaps there are NOT "too many variables". I wish you success!

I have studied and practiced meta-physics for most of my 47 years, and this movie has put forth -- in a most public and profound way -- many of the universal laws that govern our earthbound existence. The 100th monkey saw it . . . and many millions are beginning or already practicing the "rules of the game". I believe that critical mass has been achieved.

Visualize, Experience, Emote, Act "As If". Be - Do - Have is a motto that I endeavor to live by. Is my life perfect? Far from it, though my "failures" highlight the ways not to get what I really really want and show me my resistance to those acheivements. I choose to see these "failures" as opportunities to learn and to be closer to what I want.

Do I believe that these practices will draw the affluent to me? LIKE I AM A LIGHTHOUSE, they will see me shining and follow the light!

Keep up the great work.
