Is The Secret against critical thinking and activism?

Absolutely. What You resist, persists! The only way to get what You truly want, is to focus upon that. And close Your eyes, take your attention off the things which distract you or give you fear. Because they will discourage you and you will stop act and in this way never ever achieve your dreams. LOVE what you want. Loves empowers us and moves us towards what we want. Remember what you want... already wants you. it doesnt apply for people ;) well, sometimes it does ;)

Not the way u think of it.We do not attract it conciously...We actually attract it unconciously.The movie ddi not gave any other details regardingt this but i will tell u this based on personal experience as an occultist.It is not the idea that attracting what u dont want is the problem...it is the fact that because we think what we dont want, the negativity inside of us manifests quickly. Why do u think it is easier to manifest what we DONT WANT to what we WANT???It is because since our souls are full of negative dross and karmic ribbons, the negative manifests easier.One way to reverse this is through meditation

I agree with my dark fellow here. You should see the movie more than once, and even than, ask people who apply "the secret"'s principles succefuly for their meaning, in order to see another prespective. I also recomend the book, because it is more detailed and get things a bit clearer. Instead of resisting war, try promoting peace... instead of resisting poverty, try to promote wealth. If you need a hand in both subjects, I am more than willing to help...
