what is "THE LAW OF ATTRACTION" 'the secret'.......can you pls explain it to me......?

Answer 1

Like attracts like.
Positive thinking attracts positive events.

But, "The Secret" is incredibly overrated. Try telling a kid with cancer that he got it because he thought negatively all the time. Some of the things they say are insane and obviously false. The authors (Rhonda Byrne and her fellow marketers) packaged some common sense into a book "shrouded in secrecy and mysticism" and people eat it up.

Answer 2

First of all, the thing that makes it a "secret" is people's disbelief and/or ignorant blindness and unwillingness to challenge their own beliefs. It's called "hiding in plain sight".

It's very simple. The one element missing from Einstein's theory is "consciousness". It is conscious will that accounts for the randomity of so-called "predictable" results, and that directs the basic elements of existence.

When you tune into a radio station you are using a resonant frequency inside the radio to pick up the station. If you change the resonant frequency (de-tune the radio) you either can't hear the station or you lose it altogether.

When you think of a desired result and feel good about it, you are resonating with that result. However, any fears, doubts or other misemotions act as a detuning element, so you resonate at something other than your desired objective. The best indication is how you feel when you think about your goal. If you feel good, then get a little twinge of bad feelings, that is your detuning element. You need to identify it, then use one of the excellent tools they recommend, such as EFT to reverse the counter-current caused by that misemotion.

It basically has to do with agreement. If you have those fears, it's because you inwardly agree with it's premise. You can't just disagree with it; you can use a light bulb to make a dark room light, but you can't use a "dark bulb" to make a lit room dark. Disagreement is a dark bulb. Instead, replace the misemotion with another emotion of your choice, maybe by using EFT.

This premise is self-limiting, because there will people who just don't see it, so they will diss it. The problem is that they do so loudly, like a jack-*** in a church choir. Why follow the ignorant? They will never know what they're missing. Why should you miss it too?

The good thing is that all of the answers are available to you. All you have to do is know that there is a source of the answer somewhere. Send out the question, and know that when you encounter that source you can through your will make it an emitter of that information to send to you. That has nothing to do with "imposing your will", it's the way the universe is designed to work. You are the emitter of the desire to know; the source is the receptor; the source becomes the emitter. Try it, it works like a charm.

Answer 3

If you are referring to the book "The Secret" I can tell you this - its premise is nonsense. However, it is really nothing new, and simply reiterates a visualization technique that has been around for a long time: imagine a goal of yours as something that has already happened, such as winning an Academy Award. Actually imagine that you are in the audience and your name is announced, and that you go up on stage and win the award. The same thing could be done with becoming a doctor, or a rock star. However, they seem to leave out one rather key aspect to this - you still have to do the WORK. You won't win the Academy Award by lounging around in your underwear watching reruns of Superbowl games for your entire life - you have to do whatever is necessary to actually ACHIEVE what you are trying to accomplish. The visualization technique is really meant to focus the concentration. There are still limits to this - if I imagine myself as the King of England, it isn't very likely to happen, even if I am an (illegitimate) descendant of a Royal - King Henry VIII - as are thousands of others. The fact that I'm American probably won't help either. Visualize what you want to accomplish as if you have already achieved it, and then ask yourself "What did I do to get here?" That will make a lot more sense, and will help, at the very least, in you achieving your goals.

Answer 4

There is no evidence to suggest that "The Law of Attraction" is real. Even if it was real, I have evidence that it can't be a "law".

If you were in a traffic jam, then according to "The Secret", it is your fault. According to "The Secret" everyone i the jam attracted the situation to themselves by having imperfect negative thoughts. But not everybody had negative thoughts in the jam, so that means that it is not a "law" since it didn't work for everybody.

"The Secret" is very similar to "What the Bleep do We Know?". The directors of "What the Bleep do We Know?" are in a group (it is a cult) called "Ramtha's School of Enlightenment", which is lead by a woman who claims to be a medium channeling a 10 000 thousand year old warrior(I am not sure if it is exactly 10 000) called "Ramtha". Her group consists of people attempting to shoot lasers out of their eyes (literally).

"What the Bleep do We Know?" is pseudoscience, and it tries to use quantum theory to make the point that your reality is created by yourself. Even if this was true, it is logically impossible to know since if it was true, any experiment or test you do is created by you. The video has many incorrect facts, just visit wikipedia for an idea.

I do not understand why people are so gulible, and what makes them fall for "The Secret" so easily. Perhaps it is because they need something to believe in, or their lives are failing and they need an excuse. "What the Bleep do We Know?" and "The Secret" is a cult, pseudoscience and is complete bogus, believed by people who want something for nothing.

Please, do not be fooled any more by these dellusional people, because it is not true.

Oh yes, I almost forgot, this will be sweet. You see, according to "The Secret" and "The Law of Attraction" if you die, get raped, lose a leg or are brain damaged it is your fault. According to "The Secret", disabled kids are that way because they wanted to be that way. Wow. Naturally, "The Secret" will go nowhere, but I just hope it doesn't take anyone down with it.

ps To the poster above me, you are absolutely correct. Positive thinking DOES help, but it helps psychologically, not magically. You can't get rich sitting on your *** all day watching TV, no matter what you visualise.

pps To the person who typed something about Einstein, I am afraid you are wrong. Just as Einstein said, quantum theory is something temporary, it exists simply because we don't understand what is going on. The events are not random, there are other hidden variables. I believe string theory wil lead to an explanation. But anyway, "The Secret" and what the bleep don't even understand real quantum physics. The woman that made "The Secret" has never even studied quantum theory!

Answer 5

It's no secret, if you value creation, those kind of people will flock around you, if you value destruction, those kind of people will flock.
Which do you value?
Be afraid of people who package this rule as a secret, for they are the destruction folks posing in the creator's clothing.
The best thing is to just be aware of who you have been trained to become and then figure our why? The rest will fall into place.
Just don't fool yourself like the "secret" wizards would have you do.

Answer 6

Think of your attitude as a magnet that draws the same energy you are sending out! In the most basic of terms...If you think positive you will have a positive effect on your life. If you think as a defeatist you will be defeated in all aspects of your life.

It's a little simplistic but the basic premise is not new, just newly dressed up to make a few people very rich!

Answer 7

"The Secret" is like Amway for the soul.

The law of attraction is a New (Dark) Age belief that one's mental disposition attracts similar external circumstances and events. In other words, your mental intentions and attitudes draw people and things of like intention and attitude to yourself. On one level this is trivially true. We generally hang out with people who think like us and share our values and we avoid people who disagree with us on important matters and don't share our values. But a moment's reflection should reveal that this "law" is false; it's not even truthy.

Answer 8

you get what you think.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_attraction
I don't think there is any secret. To a certain extent it will be true, if you feel self confident you can make a better impression than if you don't. Your car will eventually break down, no matter what you are thinking.

if you mean the law of attraction in a science sense than wikipedia has links to those too.

Answer 9

Anyone can buy someones affection, but affection and attraction are 2 very different things. Be different than the next guy. Be smart, funny, bust her balls like you would a friend, always take things to the next level sexually and be confident. Don't be a wussy boy. Actions speak louder than words with women. Be like Maximus from Gladiator, give them "something they have never seen before" and they will be very attracted to you.

Answer 10

It means a very slick marketer is attracting your money to his bank account.

No kidding. The author of "The Secret" is a well-known and highly successful direct mail (junk mail) writer who simply repackaged ideas about the power of positive thinking and is making himself a fortune.

I just wish I'd thought of it first. LOL
