Last weekend I watched the Secret movie once again. It was surprising that even though I’ve watched the movie so many times, it generated new feelings in me – or perhaps it is more correct to say that I watched the movie as open-minded as I watched it for the first time.
I noticed that in the past years I have only thought up excuses, why I should not develop a “millionaire mind”: a mindset that attracts prosperity and abundance. Despite the fact that I agree with the issues presented in the movie almost 100 percent, but the contradiction it leaves made me feel that the whole philosophy of abundance would be intellectual dishonesty. At least how it is presented in the film.
The Law of Attraction, the basic premise of the film, is that every person creates his own reality. With our thoughts and attitudes we attract ourselves the people, matter and events with which we have to deal in our lives. In its simplicity, it means that we are personally responsible for everything. Also for our fears we are not aware of.
This sense of personal responsibility has grown to my spinal cord after my mother died when I was 10 years old. Despite of that I search reasons in the outside world and come up with excuses to explain things that I have done or left undone. My most common excuse: “I have no money (for effective rehabilitation).”
Own Responsibility
In the beginning of the 2000s I had one-year rehabilitation in China and my situation improved remarkably. When I returned home I had to make a new rehabilitation plan, and because of the thoughtlessness of bureaucrats, my rehabilitation had a long break. After that all the results I had achieved in China were only a memory. Now, the setback that I previously thought was the result of the “thoughtlessness of bureaucrats” seems to be my own lack of thinking.
The fact is that I have had an assistant since 1999, for almost 20 years. In the early 1980s I wished that I would have an assistant, a personal trainer to help me with rehabilitation. No long exercise-break would cause such physical health deterioration, if exercise would be part of my daily routine. But nowadays I am used to think that rehabilitation requires a physiotherapist, whose services cost money. Assistant costs me nothing. So it is all about my own attitude and my priorities.
Feelings May Guide Us to a Wrong Path
Until now I have thought that it is good to think that the assistant is primarily for anything else than rehabilitation. Objectively thinking my feelings (which, according to the Secret movie, are body’s feedback mechanism on whether we are doing right or wrong) have led me to a wrong path. It does not feel good. The idea presented in the film that we ourselves set our goals and create our mission, and nobody ever condemns us for our choices is only partially true.
A man who listens to his conscience condemns himself when he is doing wrong. One can only hope that we can forgive ourselves when we go wrong and as a result, lose our opportunities and in the worst case, ruin our reputation. Everything is, of course, a part of the growth process that each person goes through.
Conflict to Overcome
We are conditioned to think that conscience is the divine side in us: The one who recognizes good and evil, right and wrong. But our real self, the divine side in us, lives in our hearts, which we also call God’s temple. Its most significant feature is that it does not label, value or judge things, but its essence is love and compassion.
So what is our conscience that blames and intimidates us and turns people against each other? I wrote in the end of the article Know Your Adversary that especially at the highest levels of education students and doctoral candidates have an opponent, whose aim is to make students and researchers question their knowledge and dig deeper into their subject.
All people have an opponent, an adversary. This opponent is our own ego and conscience, which is under the guidance of Lucifer. Lucifer, Satan, is not the enemy of our souls, for it helps us get closer to ourselves. Lucifer becomes our enemy only when we turn against it, because it means that we in a sense turn against ourselves. The more we fight it, the more vigorously it fights back.
In the growth process, our ego, our conscience is our strongest opponent. We should be aware of this, because we should actively try to avoid Lucifer’s tricks. The Law of Attraction that the Secret-movie introduces is a versatile tool for our challenges. The Law of Attraction brings people also to a fair competitive situation, because our success is ultimately dependent on our spiritual growth. It is completely independent of external conditions.
In spiritual jihad (strive), the ego is a good servant but a bad master. Only after we have got our ego to adopt the rules of the game, can a real physical rehabilitation begin. By ‘physical rehabilitation’ I mean all the positive changes we make in ourselves and in our environment.
Because happiness and well-being are in the interests of all of us, we should be aware of our own impact and responsibility in the whole. For we are creating our own reality.

Light, openness … never gets you wrong 🙂
But my point remains, can be useful to tell things what they are…
Depends what your life mission is
Some are peace peachers, some are hard times preachers. It gotta be hard to get good :). You now what I mean.. bible did not always speak “pleasantly” either… it told in harsh word what happens when we disrespect god almighty.
So.. light, dark .. it has its place
Using our shadow to teach
Using our light to teach
There are a few things you cannot unsee, unfortunately. Truth not always pleasant. I see far too much behind the scenes by now, in the gov. The gov is really rarely there fully to protect us.
We have to be very careful who we vote for, or maybe give up voting
Voting is in theory an extension. I like the charity it brings.
But it can be dangerous.
People are handicapped i.e. , and need help. We can do it via voting, or via helping them
In any case, voting is just an abstraction
Of our true purpose here on earth
It can not tell us who we are
I still vote, but I dont spend much time on it…. they want to steal your attention
Love and light, I wish you all the best and come in peace 🙂
I like the bible too… king james version original and inspired gods word
Also lots of physical pain too, and adhd at same time. Chronic backpain , so I just came to your blog
Not always easy, but ‘where a will is a way’ as they say, I met a few who were much worse off than me. Some are unlucky to be born without arms or legs, so that I am not unlucky I am grateful
Sometimes I feel we get disabilities to grow spiritually, as a painful gift, that transforms us
I.e. those with most pain, can grow the most.
Some had both cancer 2-3 times, lost a limb, brain damage/stroke and more, yet continue to go on
You cannot kick them down
But that may be the most severe I heard about. Most diseases can be severe. Autism can too. Yet only for higher reason always I believe, and in time we shall come to see exactly why
I got mediumsevere asthma it shaped much of my life, and also adhd, it too did. Into hospital many times for it in childhood and early as adult. And the adhd did I couldn’t just take education easily, very very hard to read.
But I found that crystals can heal… like a miracle, my adhd.
Like you mention tones can heal, they too work on frequencies. Meaning when I use them, my mind works more fluently than in my whole life. Normally I write as bad as people I see with autism. But with grounding crystal, I may get extreme thought overview, and finally peace o fmind, able to do daily chores first time in life…. reading,writing,learning new properly,playing an instrument etc.
It never worked out before. But this frequency heals this
It also healed me of kidney stones, that I was into hospital for 15 times. Imbalanced root chakra can give kidney stones
I can relate to how you feel bout rehabilitating, and the disassocition with thoughts, I felt like I needed somewhere to burry myself most days, for years. Due to the pain and needing to work, see a system is not always kind to the sick
But the sick should try to be kind to the unkind system still shouldn’t they
This was not eas.y . When you’re in pain.
Jesus helped me a lot
Hope all goes well with your plan. I’m afraid I do not have much faith in Trump that you write about, he seems as antichrist as any president through time (maybe ceptfor JFK). Dont think we can count on presidents to save us or the world. They are often deeply into the illusion. Very very very deep. So deep you can not see it on their smile. I think we are dealing with the dark forces with this man. He may not be one of us. And the nwo he wants, is not for our gain either — it will just seem so. Hitler wanted a nwo too, but not a good nwo…. a total control nwo, and imprisoning of political activists into prisons. Thus getting more control. Once you’re in control…. well, then you want more control. It all ends up with Rome (all roads lead to rome), or 1984 Orwell society…
A society of total control
That’s what these nwo *stards want. Sometimes curse words are necessary.
I wish we could just imagine light all the time, and often we can. But we got to say thing for whta they are. Check out the podesta mails. They’re not fake. Now you now
