Passion Meets Purpose Exposes the Not-So-Secret

Finally saw the BIG movie The Secret. Here’s the basics for those that haven’t heard of it, nor have any idea what I’m talking about…It was hyped on the internet as the revealing “The Great Secret of the Universe” that you could only watch by downloading from their website or purchasing it on DVD. It never hit the theaters for those of you out of the loop on this one.

The jist of the movie? Features the top players in the Universal Law of Attraction business. Jack Canfield, Bob Proctor, Joe Vitale, Esther Hicks, and the likes. For those of you that follow my blog, you are already aware of the ULOA. Essentially the whole “like attracts like”, we’re all magnets type thing. Which are principles I have been playing with a lot for the past year. And I gotta say – this stuff works.

Some are bashing it as a slick marketing campaign and I’ll give ‘em that. The Laws of Attraction haven’t been a big secret. But I do believe there is a major benefit to the movie getting out there and into as many hands as possible. For many people out there, life is a series of events that just “happens to them”. They are stuck. They are coming from a victim mentality. “He did this to me”, “She did that to me”, “My boss yelled at me”, “My spouse is mean to me”…etc., etc.

The beauty of The Secret, is that it features a variety of different personal development, self-help, and quantum physicists - so if Esther Hicks doesn’t resonate with you, perhaps Jack Canfield does. Then they show you a series of “examples” of using these laws and how they unfold in your life.

I say any film that can open people up to the idea that they are the co-creators of their own reality is a good thing. Was it earth shattering info for me? Not necessarily. But I have been reading many of those “teachers” books for several years now. So go watch the movie. Or shake your booty on down to the local library. Or your nearest metaphysical bookstore. Or search on Amazon. Or visit my resources page.

However you like your wisdom - book, CD, mp3 download – explore. Research. Ask questions…LOTS of them. Find a mentor. Talk with a minister. Work with a coach. Find someone whose life YOU admire and ask them how they attracted what they have in their life. It’s ALL the same stuff. It’s ALL good!

Peace and happy attracting,
Kam

I just managed to see The Secret for the first time last week myself. Having been a student of metaphysics for over 20 years, this was nothing new, but I enjoyed the way they put everything in simple, easy to understand terms. I saw it with a friend of mine who is rather new to the whole concept and it was a wonderful springboard to several discussions since.

As for your site, I’m very impressed and know that I will be back to read your posts often. Keep up the great (and necessary) work!

Lynn~ It is cool to watch a “newbie” hear the attraction/Secret info for the first time. The lightbulb goes off and it’s awesome to see someone connect the dots.

Thanks for stopping by and for the kind words on the blog!

I saw The Secret a couple of months ago.  It reinforced for me what I have been exploring about my spiritual pathway.  I am such a novice, but it is always great to see visual examples of what I am studying.

Isn’t it good stuff?

My suggestion to you is to get the DVD and watch it several times. I have talked with many people that get something different each time they watch it.

If you’re a beginner, but this stuff resonates with you...follow that!

Another good one is What the Bleep? A bit more into the quantum physics of it all, but REALLY cool too.

And there is a TON of stuff online...just search the Law of Attraction and you’ll be off and away!!

Best to you on your journey. And feel free to kick around here as often as you like.
