This book presents the powerful basics of the original Teachings of Abraham. Within these pages, you’ll learn how all things, wanted and unwanted, are brought to you by this most powerful law of the universe, the Law of Attraction. (that which is like unto itself is drawn). You’ve most likely heard the saying “Like attracts like,” “Birds of a feather flock together,” or “It is done unto you as you believe” (a belief is only a thought you keep thinking); and although the Law of Attraction has been alluded to by some of the greatest teachers in history, it has never before been explained in as clear and practical terms as in this latest book by New York Times best-selling authors, Esther and Jerry Hicks.
Learn here about the omnipresent Laws that govern this Universe and how to make them work to your advantage. The understanding that you’ll achieve by reading this book will take all the guesswork out of daily living. You’ll finally understand just about everything that’s happening in your own life as well as in the lives of those you’re interacting with. This book will help you to joyously be, do, or have anything that you desire!
Excellent and inspirational advice ^ If you suffer from anxiety or a deep fear, you are not alone; this is a part of the human condition. But we don't have to suffer endlessly because anxiety has an internal structure in the form of negative thoughts and beliefs powered by emotional energy that has become frozen in place. Uncover these patterns of negative thoughts and you are on the way to making significant change. As a mindfulness-based psychotherapist, I use mindfulness as the primary tool for doing just this, and I would recommend anyone to learn more about the therapeutic use of mindfulness in conjunction with good self-analysis. If you want to learn more, read this book The Path of Mindfulness Meditation
Excellent book! ^ Tired of being a poster child for Murphy's law? This book can help you turn things around. Highly recommended!
Laws of attraction ^ Unfortunately the book sent was by a different author. Upon contacting the seller, they immediately credited my account. I would definitely buy from this seller in the future.
Expansion of The Secret ^ If you read, "The Secret," you can consider this the next step when looking up information on the law of attraction.
There are some pitfalls to this book. If you believe in LOA, then as the book suggests, you have to believe that those who suffered from racism, (as mentioned in the book) attracted that type of interaction. That is to say, there is no racism, it's all just a response that you brought upon yourself.
I do not believe that to be true or correct, but that is the way they perceive the LOA to work, including how a child would attract a negative situation. (The argument is that our negative thoughts are soaked up by young impressionable children and they are thinking thoughts even as infants. If all the baby or young child is exposed too is positive stimulus it still doesn't seem to explain how something such as child abduction can occur.)
I also felt that at times this information could have easily been read in the previous mentioned book.
The conversational style of the book is a bit jarring at first, but eventually they make it flow. I like that they expanded on certain topics concerning LOA and answered questions that "The Secret", didn't quite explain in full detail.
Esther and Jerry Hicks also have an intriguing background, that makes you wonder about Abraham (the spirit(s) that speak through her) and how the connection occurred. People tend to argue that the Hicks took the idea from the Seth books, which I can't confirm or deny. (Although, the Hicks have admitted to reading the Seth books.) What I can tell you, is that by using Abraham as a platform, it allowed more people to be willing to listen to Esther's (or Abraham's) ideas as to how LOA functions in this world.
It's an interesting read for those wanting to seek out more information on the law of attraction. Now, whether you agree with the ideas presented is up to you, but the information is there for you to make your own conclusions.
Love the book ^ The book is written by Esther and Jerry Hicks. It is a very interesting book, not for entretaning purposes only, but for education. What you put in life it comes around, says the saying. The book talks about the dialogue and conversation of these couple have with Abraham and the instructions he gives about the attraction we can have in our lifes. The thoughts of thinking positive and being in touch with our inner being. I have read the book in both languages, English and Spanish and it is fascinating. I keep with me all the time to see what I can do to improve my life. It works.
