Hi all,
The secret is a very important movie in terms of understanding what is possible when we set our intention. However it only scratches the surface, and does not address one very Important fundamental – our moral code. The beliefs and values that we learn early in life from family, friends, school and socially (mostly through the media).
Many of these beliefs and values are not at all empowering, and in fact restrict us. They are very deep-seated. I call these Inconvenient Beliefs, because they are inconvenient in terms of our destiny, but we still believe them, and they are always driven by things that we are trying to avoid instead of things that we are attracted towards.
A simple example: Most people want to be rich, to have money, to be wealthy. But there is an inherent contradiction here. Either you want this because you have been poor, bankrupt, or penniless in the past, and you are trying to avoid it. Or, you have been in this situation and people told you it’s OK to be poor, because “Money is evil”, Money won’t give you happiness”. and you accept this lie. I’m sorry to tell you that Money is not evil. It is the want of money. the attachment to money that is the problem, not money itself, as money is only an abstraction of work. Is work evil? And again the attachment to money is born out of a fear that you will lose it. Again an away-from inconvenient belief.
The basic fundamental here is that people are desperately trying to scramble away from poverty, rather than attracting abundance. This is why some people don’t resonate with The Secret, and therefore it does not work for them, until they can address these deep-seated beliefs and values.
Pretty much the only thing on this planet that is actually a scare commodity is money, and this is by design. If you don’t believe me watch “The Zeitgeist Addendum” and be prepared to get angry. There is more than enough food, resources and raw materials in the world to feed and clothe everyone and give them a good standard of living. But the Piscean age of Power and Control prevents this from happening. It was the age of the 3rd Chakra. Those that had power and self-esteem and control would prevail.
Peak oil is a myth. The Oil Cartels benefit from the belief that oil is a scarce commodity. I’m not promoting the use of more oil, but there are many benefits of having oil selling at over $75 a barrel. In fact, if we can force oil to a consistent $200 per barrel, then is makes it a lot more viable to invest in extracting Oil Shale and in deep sea exploration
The new age of aquarius that we are now entering is the the age of the 4th Chakra. The Heart Centered age. And, to quote one the sutras of the aquarian age, “Understand through compassion, or you will misunderstand the times”. Anyone who seeks to remain stuck in the old ideas will encounter much fear, suffering and pain, but if you can let it go, and flow with your Sangat, your fellowship, and your community, you will do OK.
So, let us being to understand what it truly means to be human, and help each other to raise consciousness and to move beyond a world of power, fear and greed.
Thank you for this opportunity to comment.
Love and Light,
Navdeep.
