In this first part of our investigation into the Law of Attraction and the philosophy behind the popular film, "The Secret" (written by Rhonda Byrne) we explore the beliefs behind this "Law" and its potential flaws.
The Law of Attraction has been around for quite a while now, with roots that stem back into the 1800s, along with the rise of New Age Spirituality.
But with Rhonda Byrne's film, "The Secret" that was promoted extensively by Oprah Winfrey, the Law of Attraction has reached whole new heights of popularity. This in addition to the continuous popularity and sales of Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich", have created a large following of believers in the Law of Attraction and the idea that our thoughts and feelings are able to quite literally change the reality we are living in.
Which begs the question… does the law of attraction work? Can I truly manifest the life I want?
In the first part of this two-part series I'll be taking a look into the actual philosophy behind the Law of Attraction, the supposed "science" behind this belief, and potential explanations for why it can sometimes seem like our thoughts and feelings are able to change our reality.
In the second part of this two-part series, I'll be taking a look at the New Age Spirituality industry, the gurus, and where the money flows. Because make no mistake: this is no small business. Individuals like Rhonda Byrne, Esther Hicks, Napoleon Hill, have made millions from promoting this ideology. But how trustworthy are these people, and is there a darker truth behind these seemingly innocent, "optimistic" individuals?
New Age and Law of Attraction gurus have been on the rise since Rhonda Byrne released her 2006 film, The Secret. But there is a sinister industry and reality that lies behind the teachings of New Thought which seemingly goes unnoticed.
Rhonda Byrne's Film, "The Secret" popularised the "Law of Attraction" greatly, and has allowed this philosophy/belief to permeate in the mainstream for a very long time.
But the history that lies behind "The Secret" is one that has its roots all the way back to the 1800s, where the New Thought Movement began taking strides, as well as other New Age beliefs.
In this video, we take a dive into that history, and the sinister industry that his been built up around it. We'll take a look at some of the most influential figures in New Thought throughout the past, to present day. Figures like Napoleon Hill (author of "Think and Grow Rich", and "The Law of Success"), Esther/Abraham Hicks (Author of "The Law of Attraction" and various other works), Bob Proctor, Rhonda Byrne, and others.
We will also identify just how New Age Spirituality has allowed itself to become a perfect grift, for gurus with questionable intentions to enter the space and take advantage of those in a more vulnerable and desperate situation. Those who are in desperate need of wealth, those who are in desperate need for relationships, health, happiness, etc etc.
New Age/New Thought exists in many areas of the self-help industry too, and although hard to initially spot, once someone familiarises themselves with the teachings of New Thought and the overall philosophy it isn't hard to begin seeing the patterns.
We will also explore the connections between New Age gurus and Multi Level Marketing companies. A connection that seems very prevalent within many of the big figures in this industry.
