A tribute to my Pattis

The Secret - Rhonda Byrne


This is the first time, am a writing review about a book "The Secret by Rhonda Byrne" http://www.thesecret.tv/ .
One of my friends suggested reading this book.So whats great about The Secret.Its an inspirational,self-motivating book.The book helps you transform your 'thoughts into things'. Yes, our thoughts are the back bone of our life.You think good, good comes back to you, You think bad, bad returns to you. Our life is determined by the thoughts we have had in our mind, knowingly or unknowingly, in some point of time.Here are a few excerpts from the book as is.

• Law Of Attraction - "Like Attracts Like"
• Nothing comes into existence from the outside, and that everything first comes from thinking and feeling it on the inside.
• Your mind is the creative power of all things.
• The essence of this law of attraction is that you must think abundance,see abundance, feel abundance, believe abundance.Let no thought of limitation enter your mind - Robert Collier
• Recognize the beautiful and wonderful things around you, and bless and praise them.
• When you say "I am", the words that follow are summoning creation with a mighty force, because you are declaring it to be fact.You are stating it with certainty.After you say "I am tired or I am sick or I  am overweight, I am happy, I am Love " the Genie says "YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND". I would like to add something extra to this.When I was young, my mother used to tell me 'talk good things.There are devathai (holy angels/Genie as said in this book) in the sky who keep blessing us always,be it good or bad.' I recall her words while reading this.
• I am filled with energy every single day.
• Whether you think you can or think you can't, either way you are right. - Henry Ford
• The only thing you need to do is FEEL GOOD NOW.
• IF you see it in your mind, you are going to hold it in your hands. "Thoughts become things".
• It's very important to have an attitude of gratitude.
• Gratitude is a powerful process for shifting your energy and bringing more of what you want into your life.Be grateful for what you already have, and you will attract more good things.

There are a few things I would like to reflect upon.

• I am not atheist.Rhonda Byrne does not bring in the concept of Supreme Power.If at all we get everything we want, just by changing our thoughts, where does the existence of God come in?
• Light and dark, happiness and sadness, yin yang , etc go hand-in-hand.This is not talked about here.

'The Secret' on the whole is a book to bring a positive mindset in you.Happy reading!!
