The first, original version of "The Secret" is far more superior to the new extended version. For in the original, Esther Hicks, speaking for Abraham, shows us the principles behind Law of Attraction. The producers of this film decided that the general public weren't ready to hear this message, so they deleted Esther out of the film, and re-made it, with a watered down version. The problem is, without an understanding of how this powerful law works, it leaves the viewer thinking that "taking action" is the way to go...where Abraham has stated clearly, "All the action in the world won't amount to anything, if you haven't lined up your energy. I reccomend the book: Ask and it is Given and or attending any of the Abraham seminars.
