How many ways can "the secret of the universe" be sold? When i downloaded my emails this morning, I was overwhelmed by offers wanting to show me how to use the "law of attraction"to finally fulfill every dream I ever had about what a happy life looks like. My (small "s") self had to scroll through 16 pages of very large, colorful print and lots of exclamation points loosely describing, so as not to give away too much too soon, yet another "unique" process/book/course/audiotape/dvd/workshop that would teach me how to find my (large "S") Self and, consequently, be able to manifest all things.
I'm sure it was eventually disclosed how much this would cost me - but only after being directed to a website, signing up for the newsletter and then comforted by another page describing a special price only available for the next 24 hours, but, no worries, with 90-day money back guarantee so that I was assured never to lose a thing (except, of course, the 2 hours of my time getting to their point). But, alas, I could never get that far. Maybe had I persevered, and not had to go to the bathroom, or not had to reincarnate, I would have eventually succumbed and been talked out of my credit card number. Perhaps with the added lure of a bonus set of ice tea forks.
Alright, seriously, I understand that human brains do perceive and process information differently. And it does take different words for different people to understand the identical concept. And, for something to have a profound impact, i.e., giving one an "experience" of something, rather than mere "knowledge" of something, it also takes a number of repetitions. But, having said that, all of it is just a choice among spiritual diet plans.
Personally? I'm feeling a little bulimic.
