Re: James Arthur Ray in Trouble

"*Note* Manifesting skills don't always equate with integrity. It has been my observation that the way this was all presented in the movie "The Secret" was to appeal to people's greed."


I agree. I should admit though, I couldn't make it through even the opening of the movie, for all its shlock quasi 'occult' effects. Very mainstream feel to it all, and perfectly aimed at provoking large-scale discounting of anything deemed "new-age". So, business as usual. For me that makes it a divisive tool for the religious fundamentalists and the larger machine (Pharma, etc. etc.)rather than inherently whole-some. Abraham-Hicks must be feeling gratitude they ended up disinvolved in "the secret". I think their messages are largely helpful in intent, but still, "you can have it, if you want it, when you get out of the way" begins to grate, for sounding simplistic, pseudo-lullabye and "self" serving, small s. :-) Tweet
