James Ray has done …
James Ray has done the self help a shameful dis service, I watched many of his interviews long b4 this happened & everytime I came away feeling he was only in it 4 the money. He comes across 2 the independent thinker as egotistical, greedy & selfserving. I do believe LOA works & worked 4 him, this is his result, he has brought this on himself at the cost of 3 people dead & many others injured. He owed it 2 his followers 2 b more responsible, they trusted him & it cost 3 people their lives

The guy’s a prat… …
The guy’s a prat….what happened at Sedona is the proof.
How is he going to rationalize that and line it up with the LOA.?
That sweat lodge was criminal on so many levels……..I know that from experience .
Only a greedy fool would put 64 people in that plastic death trap and charge them $9,000………to charge for it is offensive to Native Americans anyway.

when the nay sayers …
when the nay sayers have their 5 pillars intact and all firing at the same time, there’s no way anyone can argue James Ray’s point. Case studies are just that, but when science is starting to go hand and hand with harmony the more you dive into it the average person will say this works and i will continue.

U.S. Bill of Rights …
U.S. Bill of Rights 1st Amendment:
the Government for a redress of grievances.
This doesnt mean denying speech you like, or that you accept or support. This means accepting all speech, whether you like it or not. Freedom of speech is for everyone. It was the desire of men smarter than those in power today to bestow upon us, these inalienable rights. You see Beast boy you cave men just a bunch of evil deceivers you dont even follow your own bullshit……..

laryon: You tickle me with your complete stupidity & irrational thought. Wow…public education has you up. Every Historian & scholar that studies Egyptian hieroglyphics & artifacts agrees….Egyptians were clearly white. Every facet of their culture systematically fits perfect into all civilizations that border the mediteranean sea.
Actually I know its more than public education that causes your low IQ – its your sloped head eggplant brain. History proves, the cant learn.

My take on this is …
My take on this is the following. You have to think about what it is that you want – it will make people happier. Because they are positive since they focus on that.
However, the important part is that thinking about what you want is not the only thing. You also have to take the actions to get there. That is why “The Secret” alone does NOT work.
However of course, that’s the hard part about it, and it would help sales to share that part of the message to. Still, the LOA is incredibly powerful.

If we all lived our …
If we all lived our lives the way The Secret teaches us, the world as a whole would be a remarkable, healthy and friendly place to be. But unfortunately, until we educate the negative people and encourage others to help and inspire others to greatness it remains an uphill task but one that is not unachievable.
Keep smiling when others are frowning.

to put it most basically…I look at these two individuals debating “The Secret” and I think the person I would most like to imitate is NOT the hideous negative nay-sayer…

i’ll put it this …
i’ll put it this way, if you were a goalkeeper and were about to ‘receive’ the ball, you might want to stand in front of the goal. That, to me, is action. ‘Receiving’ implies an action, i think.

theres alot better …
theres alot better books to read than the secret, the secret is just a simple book dvd, to explane it on a basic level, its great though cause its a stepping stone. you have to change your emotional guidense system to get concistent results, its very hard because youve got to be aware of how you feel, and figure out where you are emotionaly then change it by using mind techniques. its harder for some to change because their brains programed to negativity through years of bad thaughts.

I can only speak …
I can only speak from my personal experience…Yes, it does. There are however a couple of disclaimers I have. BELIEF is the key. It needs to be something which truly resonates, that you have no resistance to on any level…and you need to be able to let go of it completely, forgetting about it.
If you are able to do that, you’ll be amazed at how quickly what you’ve asked for shows up…just remember to be specific about what you DO want, and don’t focus on what you don’t want.

i wrote alot as a reply to you. but i chose to erase it.
I guess i felt better after remembering your reply started off with an insult.
In that case theres no need for me to reply.

LoA = BS

In the secret They also mention that you act on inspired thought and feeling, and when u do take action it will feel joyous.For me the secret is just basic begins, it doesnt have evrything.You shouldnt chase after it you should let LOA Direct u to it.
