"What if I could do my life over again?"

This is the tantalizing question at the heart of ILLUSION, a new film making its debut with The Spiritual Cinema Circle.

This award-winning movie, starring legendary actor Kirk Douglas, tells the story of a once powerful but now ailing film director, Donald Baines. After a lifetime of rejecting his only son, Baines is "awakened" one night by the ghost of a dear, departed friend, who shows Baines mini-movies ( Akashic records ) of his illegitimate son's life. On his deathbed, Baines is given the gift of redemption... along with an opportunity to help his son realize that the only person who could change his life was the father he never knew.

Douglas, the celebrated star of more than 80 films including SPARTACUS, gives the performance of a lifetime at age 88, despite suffering a stroke in 1996. Now age 90, Douglas says, "ILLUSION appealed to me because I found something spiritual in it. The man I played was not a very good guy throughout his life but he felt the need to do something good before he died. Playing this role was a great privilege."

If you enjoy enlightening entertainment, you can receive your copy of ILLUSION on DVD as part of a risk-free trial membership with The Spiritual Cinema Circle during the month of May.

Leaping Forward By Stepping Back - by James Arthur Ray

Leaping Forward By Stepping Back

Quantum theory asserts all matter is energy. Let's go a step further and explore this idea: Energy is all that matters.

The great spiritualists all knew what scientists have only recently proven. The force that moves through us, enlivening our successes, exciting our passions, soothing our souls... the same sub-microscopic force powering photons and atoms... it's all energy in one form or another.

How We Experience and Expend Energy

In gross terms, energy exists on two levels for us: the conceptual and the practical. It's collected on the conceptual plane and expended on the practical one. Eastern tradition might call the practical aspect yang, where we focus on physical and mental activity, and the conceptual aspect yin, where we experience our deeply emotional and spiritual selves. In psychological terms, we can call the practical ego and the conceptual superconscious.

So many of us are laser focused on doing (the practical/yang/ego) that we don't regularly focus on stepping back and being (the conceptual/yin/superconscious). When we become too focused on exertion and neglect receptiveness and reflection, we can deplete our energy sources. We can become so hell-bent on yang that we don't even know the shape of yin any more.

Harmonizing the Yin and Yang

To the degree that you increase your personal velocity through the constant harmonizing of yang (activity) and yin (inactivity/receptivity), you will find your environment and your world will change.

Let your intuition be your guide:

If you passionately feel that something is right to do, do it passionately. If you are ambivalent or uncertain, wait. Take time each day to be alone and journey inside (yin).
Turn off "the plug-in drug" (a.k.a. the TV). This income and energy reducer transmits a constant stream of electrons right into your brain that can put you in a trance and dull your mind if you're not mindful of what you're watching.
Stop listening to and reading the news. The barrage of mayhem and sensationalism ultimately dulls the senses, limits creativity and suggests to us that we are totally out of control and unable to do anything about the world in which we live. It's OK to be informed of what's happening in the world but not inundated.
Take time to "be." We're called human beings not human doings. There's a good reason for this. Decide that this year that you're taking time for growth. Put it on your calendar. Inspiration comes from those moments of silence and contemplation, and you'll never run at highest octane with an empty tank.

The power to direct our own lives is not found by doing (yang). It's contacted by being (yin). That power is also known as Spirit. You cannot think your way to empowerment or enlightenment. While there are activities and learning that will advance you, ultimately you must go into the Silence to experience a profound awakening to Power/Spirit.

Pay Attention

Most of us in Western society are so busy talking to God that we never listen to God. What might happen if we stopped asking and instead started paying attention? In the final analysis, silent, undemanding prayer or meditation, whatever label we use, is the only answer to life's most important questions.

And for the dilemma of harmonizing our drive toward doing (expending energy constructively) with its absolutely necessary inverse of being (collecting spiritual energy)? Ultimately, stepping back is the only way to leap forward.

To your continued wealth and happiness,

Is "The Secret" a lie? - by Joe Vitale

: Name: Joe Vitale; Location: Wimberley, Texas, US

Author of way too many books to list here

View my complete profile

It's the ebb and flow of life.

Sooner or later the critics come flying out of their dark hiding places and start finding holes in anything that is popular. Start talking about global warming and eventually others will start talking about global cooling. And both will have sound arguments to defend their cases.

This is just beginning to happen with critics of the movie The Secret. One recent article even went as far as to say The Secret is a lie. And even dangerous. The article defends its position with mental images about the poor in Africa, or children dying of diseases.

It's a pretty bleak view and a strongly worded emotional argument.

So, is The Secret a lie?

Of course not.

It's no more a lie than anything else taken out of context and reinterpreted in a filtered, limited, negative way.

The movie is all about one idea. It doesn't pretend to tell you the secret-s of the universe. Just one of them.

And is The Secret dangerous?

At most, it may be guilty of leaving out some important extra steps to creating your ideal life.

If I were involved in the making of the movie (I'm in the movie but I didn't produce it), I'd also point out there is a law of right action, too.

Also, there are often counter intentions that need cleared for The Secret to work.

And I'd make sure people knew that feeling is more important than thought in creating your own reality.

But maybe those topics will be discussed in the sequel.

Still, the movie reveals the Law of Attraction in a powerful, inspired and inspiring way.

It's not at all dangerous.

But it's so easy to be a critic. Simply focus on the negative, find situations or people who the item won't or didn't work for, and then condemn the item.

I could take virtually any self-help, personal development, financial success, science of influence, rules of engagement, or any other book, course or topic out there and with little effort find situations where it won't or didn't work.

Critics do that all the time.

The media does that, too.

What would be the point?

It would be staying in the negative and keeping people feeling bad.

How would that serve anyone?

I prefer to inspire myself and others.

In fact, my next book, Zero Limits, explains that what you have to do to change the entire planet is change yourself.

My own take is that The Secret will work for anyone who will apply it.

What about the people in Africa?

Well, do you think they know The Secret?

Hardly.

What about children dying?

Well, do you think they know The Secret?

Hardly.

And what if someone who knew The Secret ended up in Africa or with a disease?

Obviously (as the movie points out), they could change themselves and their situation.

That's the whole point of knowing The Secret.

Rather than condemning the movie by citing examples where people don't even know the principle let alone practice it, I think a wiser stance is to find how The Secret works, demonstrate it in your own life, and let your life be a model for others to be inspired by.

I think that's what the teachers in the movie, including myself, are trying to do.

All in all, I'd rather be a creator than a critic.

By creating a life worth living, I make a difference in the world -- first in my own life, and then in the lives of others who are inspired to dare something worthy, too.

The Secret isn't a lie; it's a law.

You just have to apply it.

Ao Akua,

Joe

PS - I got a traffic ticket a week ago. I attracted it to me -- by not obeying the law. The law is there for me to obey or not. Follow it and I get good results. Don't follow it and I may get results I don't want. Traffic law can be considered less important or concrete than the law of gravity. But it's still a law. So is the law revealed in the movie The Secret. Go watch it again.

TIP: Most people who criticize The Secret are doing so because they want it to work but can't seem to make it work. One of the biggest reasons The Secret doesn't instantly work for someone is due to lack of forgiveness. An entire culture can experience this. But it can be changed with one person forgiving. Namely you. I'm doing this myself, and constantly going through my mental files to see who or what needs forgiven in my life (including me). For help, consider the Subliminal Manifestation DVDs or of course Miracles Coaching. And dare something worthy, that will inspire yourself and others, rather than raining on a parade that could heal millions. Don't be seduced by the dark side. Go toward the light.

An introduction to 'The Secret'

An introduction to 'The Secret'

Marla Hardee Milling

Do you know The Secret? Chances are you've heard of it by now -- in mid February 2007, "The Secret" was the top-selling DVD on Amazon.com and BarnesAndNoble.com, while its companion book hit the number one spot on the USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists. For a movie that was independently released and sold only online, it's received a great deal of media hype, having been featured on Oprah, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Larry King Live and in countless other media outlets.

For those wondering what the big "Secret" is, let us clue you in: It's essentially the Law of Attraction, a universal law that says "like attracts like." More specifically, it's based on thoughts and emotions: What we focus on is what we create in our lives.

But The Secret producer Rhonda Byrne is hardly the first to embrace this ideology.
Some of the greatest minds of our time have understood it.

"Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions." - Albert Einstein

"Whether you think you can or you can't, either way you are right." - Henry Ford

"You create your own universe as you go along." - Winston Churchill

"All we have is a result of what we have thought." - Buddha

As The Secret points out, throughout history the greatest thinkers and achievers knew how to apply the Law of Attraction in their lives. In addition to those quoted above, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison and Ralph Waldo Emerson -- to name just a few -- were said to have implemented this credo into their everyday lives.
That doesn't necessarily mean they knew how it worked, though. As Alexander Graham Bell said, "What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists."

Everything is made of energy. That's not a metaphysical philosophy -- it is scientific fact. At the atomic level, you can see it. On a soul level, that's all we are.

You can create wealth, harmonious relationships, strong health, and anything else your heart desires. But here's the tricky part. This is not some "get rich quick" scheme, or some type of cult that brainwashes people into "feeling good." The Secret is not an organization or a charity -- it's simply the vehicle Byrne uses to present the universal Law of Attraction to a larger audience.

When Rhonda Byrne discovered the Law of Attraction, she found the teachers she was seeking to present this ancient principle to the world in the members of the Transformational Leadership Council founded by Chicken Soup for the Soul author Jack Canfield.

While many of people featured on the movie The Secret have strong spiritual beliefs, the Law of Attraction is not religion-based. In simplest terms, it's about believing in yourself and aligning your thoughts and beliefs with your greatest desires. However, the Law of Attraction is complementary to a wide range of religious beliefs. As Michael Beckwith pointed out on Oprah, Jesus said, 'Pray believing that ye have that ye may receive.' Says Beckwith, "That's 'The Secret' in a nutshell."

James Ray agrees. He says The Secret is about supporting the great spiritual traditions in a more modern form. "It really is just putting Christianity, Judaism, all the great teachings into a current vernacular," says Ray.

Along with Beckwith and Ray, other teachers featured in the movie include Jack Canfield, Lisa Nichols, Bob Proctor, and John Assaraf. (Esther Hicks appeared in the first edition of the movie, it is now a collector's item.)

Oprah said on her program that she's been living "The Secret" for years, but she didn't know it was a secret. In fact, all of us are living "The Secret," whether we're aware of it or not. By the Law of Attraction, we are constantly drawing into our lives good experiences or bad experiences, based on what we are focusing our attention on.

Everything is energy, as proven by Quantum Physics. Our bodies, our cars, our possessions -- everything is vibrating on a certain frequency. Likewise, as practitioners of The Secret point out, our thoughts are also things that carry an energetic frequency. Our thoughts become like magnets, drawing back into our experience those things that vibrate at the same frequency.

The Law of Attraction is based on what you are thinking and what your beliefs are. It's as real as the Law of Gravity. We know if we throw an apple into the air, it's going to come down. Likewise, if we concentrate on negative thoughts, we're going to draw negative circumstances into our lives. Transform your thoughts and you'll transform your world.

It's not necessarily easy, though, to replace thoughts that have been ingrained in our minds – some since childhood. There's some hard individual work ahead -- you have to identify those negative thought patterns that have been building throughout your life and work to replace them with more positive patterns.

Lisa Braun Dubbels, who told of her success with the Law of Attraction on Oprah's follow-up show on The Secret, which aired Friday, February 16, 2007, told us recently, "It's not an overnight process.

"I read hundreds of books," she continues. "I was trying to get into a place where I was emotionally healthy again. At first I was pretty skeptical. But I was in a situation where I was struggling in every area of my life. The more you struggle, the harder it gets for you. When I allowed myself to believe it could work, that's when it became easy to me."

Dubbels said at the time she began searching for a way to turn her life around, everything that bottomed out. She'd left her job, which she considered her identity, and no longer knew who she was. She faced incredible debt, the lack of a relationship, and was told by doctors that she had an incompetent cervix and most likely would never have children. But she says she did a lot of inner work and focused on changing her negative beliefs.

"A lot of good things happened when I put the Law of Attraction into place," she explains. "I put in a lot of work on myself so I could be grateful for what I received. You can manifest change, but you have to be prepared to do the action to see it through. Every day I'm so grateful for the life I have. I have financial freedom, an amazing husband and two wonderful children, and a house I love."

Here are some ways to reprogram your mind:

Decide what you really want – Many people aren't satisfied with the current state of their lives, but they often have a hard time pinpointing what they really want. It's easy to say what you don't want. "I don't want all this debt." "I don't want to be lonely anymore." "I don't want to be overweight." But thinking in the negative – or concentrating on what you don't want, actually creates more of what you don't want. What we put our attention on grows. When you are thinking "debt" or "overweight," that's what you are concentrating on and what you are actually creating more of.
It's important to stop thinking about what you don't want.

Here's a profound example to further illustrate this point:
Mother Theresa was once asked why she never participated in anti-war demonstrations. She replied, "I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there." She clearly understood the power of intention and attention. She recognized that an anti-war demonstration with hundreds or thousands of people focusing their energy on ending the war would still be focused on the war. And that focused energy would contribute to the continuation of the war. - from Evolving Times
Shift your inner dialogue: Go ahead and make a list of all those things that you don't want, or you feel are lacking in your life. Now, turn the phrase around to what you DO want. Instead of thinking, "I'm drowning in debt," think "I am creating financial success for myself." Instead of dwelling on being overweight, think "I am taking care of my body, eating right, exercising and attaining my desired weight." Develop specific affirmations to reinforce what you want in your life.
Visualization – Spend some time each day picturing exactly what you want in your mind's eye. In his book, The Success Principles, Jack Canfield says, "The process of visualizing for success is really quite simple. All you have to do is close your eyes
and see your goals as already complete. If one of your objectives is to own a nice house on the lake, then close your eyes and see yourself walking through the exact house you would like to own. Fill in all of the details...
This goes for any goal you make – whether it's in the area of work, play, family, personal finances, relationships or philanthropy. Write down each of your goals and objectives, then review them, affirm them, and visualize them every day.
Let your emotions guide you: If a certain thought makes you feel bad in any way, then you're not on track. You must become aware of thoughts that make you feel bad, and work to shift those thoughts so that you can feel good. When your thoughts make you feel happy or excited or joyful, you are in alignment to receive the good things you are looking for.

In their book, The Law of Attraction, Esther and Jerry Hicks write, "Rather than trying to monitor your thoughts, we encourage you to simply pay attention to how you
are feeling. For if you should choose a thought that is not in harmony with the way the broader, older, wiser, loving Inner Being part of you sees it, you will feel the discord and then you can easily redirect your thought to something that feels better and which therefore serves you better."

They go on to say, "It is a natural process that when you look at what you want, you will feel powerful, positive emotion. So it is a matter of holding your thoughts upon what you want... As you are feeling good, all things that (by your estimation) are good will begin coming into your experience."

Focus on gratitude: Expressing gratitude is a critical part of the Law of Attraction. When you focus on what's working in your life, and you are grateful for it, you create more experiences to be grateful for.
As Canfield writes, "No matter what your situation, there are always things to be grateful for."
Take action: Visualizing your goals, reciting affirmations and expressing gratitude are all important tools for creating the life of your dreams. But there's one other component that must take place in order to move forward in your life. You must take action. What are some steps you can take today to achieve your goal? If you're trying to lose weight, it may be that you exercise five minutes longer today, or even begin a 10 minute routine.

As wild and wonderful as this all seems, there's no magic here. If you want to achieve your dreams, you have to be willing to believe that you can have them, and be willing to take the necessary steps to get there.

Along with obvious action, such as applying to law school if you want to be a lawyer, Canfield identifies what he calls "inspired actions." He says, "Once you begin [doing the things described in this article], the universe will start responding by sending people, resources and opportunities you need to manifest your desired result. You are going to find that you have inspired ideas; you must act on them. You must follow those gentle proddings from the universe. Often these intuitive impulses will have no seeming connection to achieving your goal, but if you follow them, they will lead you down a path of wonderful fulfillment."
