Good Morning Everyone.  I have just finished watching The Secret.  It actually took me longer than expected due to a salvage attempt on my shed because of a wind storm (the wind won) but any way.  Has any one else seen this documentary or read the book of the same name.  And If so I'm interested on your thoughts on the topic.  For those who haven't heard about it (much like myself until I happened upon it last night) The documentary is much like an infomercial expounding the virtues of positive thinking and the Laws of Attraction.  I've personally always been a strong believer of Karma and the three fold laws, but The Secret brings it a step further.  Now don't get me wrong, some of the topic of discussion seems a little out of whack with rational thinking at first glance, and, I'm not one to buy into every belief system that comes down the pipe, but by and large it makes sense.  With that said and from what I've witnessed both here on ADN and out within the Wiccan community, a majority of this practice is already in effect.  So to folks such as us it's not really an earth shattering revelation.  There are however, several people that I can think of off the top of my head that this documentary should be slated as mandatory viewing.  I'll leave it at that for now and open the floor for discussion.  For those who have no idea what I'm rambling about, well, I can't tell you......it's a secret.   Kidding...  here's the link for the web site.  http://www.thesecret.tv/

Blessings All.

I've heard of the film, but unfortunetly haven't seen it yet. I've heard very good things about the film though. I'll have to check it out.

From what I have heard, the person is no other than L. Ron Hubbard himself. Now I cannot verify this but I have heard it from many sources and this just another way to convert to Scientology...
But who knows... What does everyone else think of this claim?

L Ron Hubbard,  Queen Mary of Scott's, Rocky and Bullwinkle.  Grin. I think that as long as people don't take it out of context and see the message for what it is, which to me was if you are nice to others and portray a positive outlook, good things will happen.  I saw it as being all about karma and positive energy.  But then again my shed wasn't making me emit positive energy at the time, only strong language  Rant  Grin.
