		<description>My best friend recntly moved to Scotland when the Presbyterian church offered a position. (He holds a doctors degree in theology). Before he left, he examined a copy of Albert Pike's "Morals and Dogma". He said it was OK.
I inherited the book. I recomend finding a copy.
You will find a leather binding, and gold leaf pages. 

I tell you this... "nothing is impossible"... 
Say the Lords Prayer. think about each word.
do this for three hours.

The Lord God of Isriel will fill your body with warm light. You might hear a voice. Obey the voice.
 ("Wash in the water now" for example).

		<title>Comment on Dr. Wayne Dyer by Heather</title>

		<description>I began reading Wayne Dyer's books when I was 13 and found that even then he had a profound impact on my life.  I'm now 22, and while I certainly haven't mastered his teachings, I DO understand them and apply them enough to have experienced both big and small 'miracles' in my life. He really, truly knows what he is talking about.  As soon as I got out of my own way, everything effortlessly fell into place.

In response to Elise's comment, I must agree that I had the same problem at first.  Being the victim of child abuse myself, it was VERY difficult for me to grasp that I chose that horrible part of my life for myself.  However, now that I am older and have had Dr. Dyer and God guiding me, I feel differently.  I believe it was part of an exercise in personal growth that I chose - I went from being very abused as a child (and even homeless at one point) to an exceptional University student with all the opportunity in the world.

I'll end the novel of a comment with two reading suggestions that I found to be just as profound as Dyer's work: Illusions by Richard Bach and The Message of a Master.

Enjoy!</description>

		<description>melanie, tina..... i totally agree. I think part of the problem is the fact that this process asks us to 'feel'.  Sadly i think that in this era we are not great feelers.  we live life trying our best to get away from feelings weather it be thro drink, drugs, sex, whatever.  i also think its quite sad that we cant even allow ourselves, even for a moment to contemplate that there is more to life than surface.  That we are more than a bag of bones and that we have huge  potential.   not just the select few, but all of us.  all of us. Why is that so scary? Why must there always be a negative? a charlatan waiting around every corner to rob us of our dignity wealth and happyness?  i wish those sceptics out there would take one foot out of their comfort zone (even if that zone is a place of underlying suspiciousness) and  dare to put it into practice.  it really does work.  by the way, no offence is intended by my words!</description>

		<description>Wayne Dyer was for me the gate to advanced spirituality.  I have learned a lot from his books and audios.  Later, A Course in Miracles, and The Dissapearance of the Universe by Gary Renard opened my eyes to understand our true esence and the reality that is hidden for those living in the material world.  We are One.  All is One. God is One.  Namaste.</description>

		<description>Melanie,
You are fabulous. Not just because we agree, but because u wee able to eloquently put into words exactly how I feel !  It's frustrating because as Abraham says this really is all about a feeling, which can transcend words most of the time.  The message is a good one, and I'm confused as to how in any way it's a bad thing.   Ok, so not everyone completely changes their life right away with these teachings, but we are breaking a life time of habitual negative thinking, mainly based simply by reacting to our surroundings.  At the very least, if we can find a way to "deal" that "feels" better to us, isn't that a really good start?  Don't u all think that finding our way to a better feeling place is a more
productive platform
from which to conduct change? Especially positive change??? 
I'm just sayin'.....</description>

		<description>I have been hearing so much about Dr. Wayne Dryer. So now I am really interested in reading his books. I have been following Joyce Meyer, because she explain's scripture so everyday people can understand it and use it and include Jesus in our everyday lifestyles. Life is what we make it, not what anyone else tell's us to do, belief and faith are the seed to happiness!</description>

		<description>Actually, Abraham and the Hicks are unique in that they DO NOT have a hard sell approach.  They talk about their books to those they attract, but like most others do not email your constantly with the latest product just because you visited their website and gave them your address. They provide hours of free videos, which as they say is "the best of Abraham" on Utube.  You can make a $12.00 (or less) investment in "Ask And It Is Given" and have all the answers you need.

The real secret behind the Secret is all about Source Energy and the fact that we're all eternal beings of light and extensions of that Source.  This is why they were cut out of the Secret.  Ronda Burns knew that whe would have a much much wider audience if she left that controversial little tid bit out.    As you can see from the above comments, it freaks out most people. 

If the Hicks are such brilliant money chasing charlatans, they would certainly be smart enough to realize the same thing.  Instead they chose to honestly expose themselves to your ridicule  because they know the damage they would do to their own energy if they tried to perpetrate a lie.  They don't need that in their lives.  They very slowly presented their message and attracted like spirits over 25 years.

I love it when I hear people say, "Well I kinda like their message, but....".  I wonder if they really would feel better about the message if they were lied to?  For me, knowing the truth made it more interesting, but I'm in the vast minority, which is a fact that Ronda Burns knew and made her fabulously wealthy.


Love to all,

		<description>It is sad to say, but with the recent sweat lodge tragedy the secret of "The Secret" has become revealed.  There was no "Secret" just another group who saw the opportunity to sell something to a culture desperate to find meaning.

The only spiritual message that one could discern from the example is one that we all knew anyway.  If something goes wrong, flee the jurisdiction before the police arrive.

Now we are faced with the realization that the whole global warning movement was a total fraud pepetrated by academics trying to scam research funds and speculators trying to cash in on psuedo-scientific technology.

The only "Secret" that is yet to be found is the "Truth" and and all of which seem to be continually hidden by those who know there is much more profit in the "Lie".</description>

		<description>Hi Debra,

Thanks for commenting.  I have been neglecting this blog lately.  I really need to get back to writing.  Holding down a full time job and having 2 kids really seems to eat up my time.  I have all these ideas in my head that I want to get into writing, but finding the time is the challenge.</description>
