Don't miss Thursday's Oprah on "The Secret"

I have not seen the movie yet. Is it out on DVD? That's more convenient for us. I will remember to watch Oprah tomorrow. Thanks for letting us know.

I have not read the book or watched the movie yet, but it is on my list. I'm currently working through a similar book that came out earlier: Think and Grow Rich By Napoleon Hill. It is very good. I also do a lot of work with energy in the spiritual sense. That is studying energy and learning to use it. I'll start some discussions more specifically related to energy and attraction later, but for now I have a discussion that asks for sources on this time of thing. You should come over and submit a few resources like the movie The Secret, I'm sure you will help people. One of the things i have learned about energy and attraction is consistence and continuity of concentration. This is important and can be easily over looked. If you focus on a body part for a long time you will start to notice a change in sensation. Longer and you start to feel various electrical like feelings. Longer still and you notice that the electrical feeling change more and more usually becoming even more pleasureful. What can be missed though is that there is a lack of continuity in our awareness of things that takes reasonably great effort to maintain. The more you try to maintain the continuity the perceptive you become to the lack of continuity. There are various teaching about how to find a true continuity but I wont go that deep right now, except to briefly mention that it has to do with finding your true center, i.e. your true self and from there you can have continuity of awareness, energy, and experience. What I will focus on is that the longer you can hold your awareness consistently on a particular point the more likely you are to direct energy to that point and refine that energy to its beneficial so called "higher frequencies" faster. You can observe this by practicing what is called self-presence in two ways. Self-presence is the practice of staying in the moment and staying aware of yourself and your presence (See teaching of Eckard Tolle). 1. Try to focus on your self a bit at a time without trying not to be distracted, and not trying to bring your attention back right away. 2. Then try to stay focused as long as possible and pull your attention back in focus as quickly as you can. Try to stay focused as long as you can without being distracted. There is a trick to this that eventually you will get the feel for but it is hard to describe it in words. You will eventually see which one is the quicker route to the goal. This is the same with the law of attraction. We want to do everything we can to stay focused on our aim as much as we can without being distracted and the more distractions we can stay focused through the stronger our will becomes. The stronger our will the more we are able to attract what we desire. This is because the law of attraction is directly connected to the law that says that energy goes were attention goes. so keep your eyes open! cheers.

I missed the movie - forgot to tape it - but I'm sure it will come back. Interesting concept that basically is *if you want somehting badly enough, you'll get it.* Is that right? I can see how that would work for a lot of things. Themind is a powerful thing.
