Not really a movie or documentary, The Secret is more of a video seminar, a presentation featuring a series of authors, philosophers, doctors, quantum physicists, entrepreneurs, and spiritual practitioners expounding on the powers of The Secret (probably the most well-known of the presenters is Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul and The Success Principles). What is The Secret, exactly? "That principle can be summed up in three simple words: thoughts become things," proclaims writer Mike Dooley, author of Notes from the Universe. Put it another way, it's The Power of Positive Thinking and how it can be applied to attracting more money, better health, and relationships; in short, happiness. (There is a rundown of topics on the DVD Chapters menu). Most of the material here is given in a straightforward manner, with the presenters simply talking into the camera to address the audience directly, which is good because it avoids the trap of pretense. On the other hand, the quick edits between presenters (would it hurt to let them say more than one sentence at a time?) don't help because it reduces many of their points to palatable sound bites and aphorisms. To many viewers, this may make the program come across as a series of nice ideas not rooted in reality. Plus it's somewhat spurious to claim that The Secret was well understood and practiced by specific individuals like Plato or Shakespeare (it's well known that some of the historical figures noted didn't exactly live happy or even prosperous lives, despite their achievements). But still, the primary message is one of positivity and hope for everyone. So what to make of it? In the end, programs like this generally find an audience that is open to the message, and many will probably find it to be a source of inspiration. Others will approach it with a good deal of skepticism or dismiss it as another way of marketing happiness the masses. It simply won't resonate with everyone, but if it resonates with you, you're likely to enjoy it and get a lot out of it. Those looking for more on The Secret might want to check out the companion book by Rhonda Byrne. --Daniel Vancini

 Finally, I get it! November 21, 2008
I have read self help and prosperity books for forty-five years. "Think and Grow Rich", "The Richest Man in Babylon","See You at The Top", "The Science of Getting Rich","Psycho Cybernetics","The Power of Positive Thinking", "The Seth Material", "The Peter Principle",Tibetan Book of the Dead, and several books by L. Ron Hubbard which didn't impress me enough to recall their titles.
In all of these titles, I found a nugget or gem of truth, but because I could only appreciate them intellectually and compare each with other works of a similar nature, I never got beyond a "reviewer's perspective". I could argue the merits and demerits of each volume. Yet, my life was not better for my intellectual appreciation.
Then one day, out of nowhere, steped a little Australian blond named Rhonda Byrne who opened her hand to reveal an encrusted ancient key saying, "Were you missing this, mate?" Tears welled in my eyes because I was missing that key!
What's the key? I suppose I could say the key is revealed in the work entitled "The Secret"; get a copy. But I won't do that because you might be like me and desperately need this information. Get this now! The key to "The Secret" IS DOING IT AND LIVING IT!
Keep the Gratitude Diary every day. Meditate. Take time out to just go out and walk and breathe deeply. Don't appreciate this secret intellectually by comparing it to other tomes and self help works. LIVE THE SECRET.
When you get the "gratitude attitude" and realize just who you are instead of who you are told by science and religion you are, you will turn your life around setting course for new vistas of happiness and prosperity. Realize first, happiness and joy must come before any material benefits you anticipate or desire. As Jack Canfield says, "If it ain't fun, don't do it." Never truer words were spoken.
The point to get is really going to rough up your fur; especially if your are religious or skeptical. No matter that science says you evolved from a gob of goo or that religion says you are an unworthy sinner needing repentance and salvation; when you "GET"(comprehend) The Secret, you will realize God isn't OUT THERE God is YOU!(in here).
You are God. God is eternal. God comes into form, moves through form, and moves out of form eternally. If you also get the CD "What the Bleep Do We Know?" and "What the Bleep Do We Know...Down The Rabbit Hole?" you will find physicists beginning to agree that quantum physics points to the reality of the Universe being THOUGHT. In the billions and billions of light years of cubic space extending forever in all directions away from our planet Earth, there has never been found any other life or life forms for the last fifty years of NASA investigations,Seti radio astronomy, and space probes.
Despite the fact that Science earnestly desires to find intelligent life in the Universe, it won't. Despite the fact that fundamentalists of every religion propound salvation comes only to true believers and ardent upholders of faith, salvation comes when humanity realizes the ideal of godhood manifesting everything by the power of pure thought.
Sounds like I am a new convert to a new and very subtle religion, doesn't it? Yet, I am only explaining what an impact this volume has had on my life. Americans are performance driven. Not seeing immediate results always gives the lie to such claims by this perspective. Yet, performance varies with experience and skill. No, I am not yet rich. But, I will be. And, it will come by my perfect understanding of and practice living the Secret.
The really funny thing is the secret has been revealed in every one of the books I mentioned above. It is in the Christian Bible, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, the Koran, and Vedas. It is out there for anyone to see. But, I didn't see it until that little Australian blond, Rhonda Byrne had the faith and guts to publish "The Secret". The CD is simply a mind blower. She got all the great minds together who really understand who they are and what the secret is in practice. If you want to change your life and prosper, say "Yes" when that little Australian blond comes to with her hand outstretched saying as she reveals a beat up old key in the palm of her hand, "Missing this, mate?"
Get"The Secret", Live "The Secret", and prosper by "The Secret".
The Secret November 17, 2008
I watched this movie in class and decided i wanted my own copy. I had a hard time finding it in stores around town, so i looked on line. Amazon was by far a lot cheaper than it would have cost in the store. I think Best Buy was selling it for $15 or $20. I got it on Amazon for about $5. Good buy, good DVD, will get you to keep thinking postivite. And you will start to believe in the Law of Attraction!
excellent service November 17, 2008
I ordered 5 DVDs from this company. When I received them after 4 or 5 days, one of them was a bad disc. I emailed the company about this problem and was informed that I would be receiving a new DVD in the mail soon. It arrived within three days. I give this company 5 stars for reliability and promp service.
Good Movie November 17, 2008
Good Video. It does not go into enough detail and then to find out that they cheated Esther and Jerry Hicks out of the film, when they were the major source of information that was left out.
 disappointed November 16, 2008
i am so disappointed because i am not able to open any of the 3 cd's kindly help me as to what i should do,
