The purpose of this article is to explain some of the ideas used by people who have read The Secret. The book that inspired The Secret was written over a century ago so some of the language may sound “cute.” People thought and talked in a different way back then, and often you have to give them the benefit of the doubt that when they said for example “men” what they really meant was “humanity”.

This was really an exciting time. The discoveries of science were forcing people to re-think their relationship with life, the universe and everything. The works of people like Edgar Cayce, Charles and Myrtle Filmore and Ernest Holmes were causing people to think in new ways.

A new world of creativity was opening up before people. Key to this process were the advances of science. We learned that we had an effect on the universe in which we found ouselves.

The effect of these new ideas was not limited to spiritual circles. The idea of Positive Mental Attitude, Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich, the fields of art, literature, music and many others were strongly altered by this shift in thought.

Many people may think the philosophy of the New Age culture sounds like The Force of Star Wars fame, which “surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.” This view of a universal substance that is everywhere present is described in many of the world’s great religions and is described by Wallace Wattles as “a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe.”

The “new concept” that occurred 100 years ago was that we could directly impress our thoughts upon this “formless substance” and create our experience of life. No more pleading for the mercy of a Supreme Being! Such an idea was very transformational to the mindset of the time.

One thing is for sure: it’s good to have choices. How can we know the unknowable? It makes sense to this writer that we are free to live our own lives and to make our own choices.

Do you believe in astrology? Whether you do or not, it should not dictate the way you live your present life! I would not like to find out in the end that my ultimate fate depended on whether I mumbled certain chants or rubbed magic beads in a certain order.

“Thoughts held in mind produce after their kind”. It’s precisely what the New Agers, the Positive Mental Attitude people and the optimistic folk have been trying to tell us all this time. The Secret is a secret because we don’t see it right in front of us!

It really makes for an interesting study. The book that inspired The Secret is titled The Science of Getting Rich. Published over 100 years ago, it is in the public domain today. Look for more information in the next paragraph.

Adam Dillinger owns the Self Help Hotline and has been involved in self improvement and New Age thinking since childhood. He is happy to offer a free copy of the book that inspired The Secret. You can learn more about it here.

Have you ever tossed a rock into a pond and watched the ripples race away? Sometimes ideas impact our thoughts in just such a profound way. That’s exactly what Rhonda Byrne’s “The Secret” has done. “The Secret” is causing quite a stir with people and it just keep getting stronger and stronger.

Many people didn’t pay a lot of consideration to that note at the beginning that said she was “given a glimpse of a great secret .” I know I sure didn’t. Then I heard some people talking the other day about the book that gave her that glimpse! The book came out over 100 years ago and, like the purloined letter, has been available for you and me ever since. Bob Proctor, a guru in “The Secret,” says it has been inspiring him for over 30 years.

I got a copy of this self help book and have been going over it, and it’s making changes in my life already! This book was written in the dawn of the “New Age” movement, when positive thinking and quantum physics were just starting to bring science and philosophy (including religion and spirituality) closer together.

One of the significant themes in this self help book is that it is our imperative to experience prosperity in our lives| Although we hear many explanations about spiritual prosperity, many people still think it is the opposite of material prosperity. In this book we learn that if we learn how to think in a “certain way” we will learn to work with the “formative substance of the universe” to create spiritual prosperity in our lives.

Here are some of the headings in this book:

The Right To Be Rich
The First Principle
Gratitude
Thinking In The Certain Way
How To Use The Will
Getting Into The Right Business
The Advancing Man

Here are a couple of the precious gems from this book:

“It is perfectly right that you should desire to be rich; if you are a normal man or woman you cannot help doing so. It is perfectly right that you should give your best attention to the Science of Getting Rich, for it is the noblest and most necessary of all studies. If you neglect this study, you are derelict in your duty to yourself, to God and humanity; for you can render to God and humanity no greater service than to make the most of yourself.”

“It is the desire of God that you should get rich. He wants you to get rich because he can express himself better through you if you have plenty of things to use in giving him expression. He can live more in you if you have unlimited command of the means of life.”

Would you like a copy of this self help book? This book is in the public domain and you can get a copy at no charge at Self Help Hotline Secret. Learn the truth from “The Secret” that we create our reality.

P.S. Remember, this is not idle fantasy or unproven thoughts. Prosperity is a state of mind Learn to be the observer who bends the formative substance of the universe to your will!
