The Secret October 14, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great DVD, special when you try to see and get the Best out of it. I have the book, I have CD and I bought DVD because the level of energy you get by watching this people is incredible, you see right away that their success comes from there attitude and where to get attitude - you work on it, it's not easy, it's takes time and the best - it's possible. This DVD gives power to belief in yourself and ability to create wonderful life for all. I think it's nice to have this DVD, you can find the right answer when you have trouble, just by watching, because mind after that work differently. Good luck to all.
Just Scratches the Surface, Still Worth a Look October 12, 2008 This review pertains to the original DVD release version of The Secret. I enjoyed the movie shortly after it came out, but began to feel uneasy as assorted controversies began to dog some of the stars. Look it up if you don't know what I'm talking about.
Overall, this is an important movie, for we're in a period of humankind's existence where perceived scarcity of resources will force us to either evolve as a species or perish. By evolve, I mean using a much higher share of our intellectual (and spiritual) capacity than at present. Critics, including adherents to the Law of Attraction, have Swiss Cheesed The Secret for pandering to the people's materialism, wanton lusts and venality.
And many have raised the oh-so-essential point that manifesting one's intentions is not merely a sit-back-in-your-La-Z-Boy-and-dream process -- as the movie might have you believe. Success is not easy. The movie is very light on the fact that most of us have to work our tails off to succeed.
But come on, lighten up, people -- all that's just marketing to get viewers thinking about the higher-level capabilities within them.
If you watch this movie and actually study it, you'll quickly realize that you must learn more, grow more and act more if you wish to materialize the paradisic visions shown in The Secret. (And of course, the idea is for you to learn, grow and act under the watchful tutelage and support of The Secret business organization. They are more than happy to supply you with videos, seminars and other "product" that might -- might -- help you to achieve some measure of life mastery.)
Part of the "Secret to Money," it seems, is creating a huge sales and marketing apparatus to keep the money flowing in after they buy the video.
But back to the movie. It presents some quite intriguing and valid principles, including: 1) that everything, including matter, is reducible to energy; and 2) All of this energy is connected in an incomprehensibly large network (hmm, a Matrix?), meaning that everything and everyone is connected with everything else. If you accept this, it renders quite foolish the wars, struggles and competition we engage in daily. And it makes generosity and kindness seem like a no-brainer, if not downright self-serving.
And so now we're at something of a crossroads. Even as more people than ever are embracing the message of plentiful abundance and oneness (preached by Buddha, Jesus, Wallace D. Wattles, and many more), we find a world gripped in many places by greed, crisis and dysfunction. Here's hoping that The Secret, for all its flaws, can tip the scales so that humanity will move toward alleviating its own suffering. It will require "the masses" to awaken to the potential within themselves as individuals, and undergo the hard work of life mastery.
Get it October 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Change your way of thinking it will change your life for the better and for only 10 and you dont have to buy a thing more.
Must get 'The Secret' DVD, even if you've read the book! October 2, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you've read The Secret and loved it as much as I did, then you must get the DVD as well! It basically repeats the book in oral form, quotations are all the same, but it adds tons of visual detail and more story-telling done by the contributors of the book. I was already using The Secret, after reading the book, to manifest small things to sort of 'test' the law of attraction and I must say that I was very impressed at how accurate the 'law' is everytime. After watching the DVD, I'm completely motivated to manifest my dreams which once seemed impossible and too far to reach.
My item arrrived in pristine condition. October 1, 2008 I received exactly what I requested, in a timely manner, and at very reasonable cost.
