The secret is really out about james arthur ray.
How could I forget this bullshit “The Secret?” In 2007 Ray and a black guru appeared on Oprah. Later that year my cousin had the DVD and told me to watch it when I got a chance. I couldn’t believe it: He stole it and put his name on it. It was all about the laws of attraction.
The laws of attraction AKA law of karma is well laid out in the book of Alice A Bailey. And every charlaton, geek, phony guru in the world has come to feed at the trough that is Theosophy and the occult. Ray was playing with fire and he got burned.
I recalled his interview on Oprah and said then it was a bunch of bunco crap. I couldn’t believe my cousin fell for that crap. I watched some of the video but it was so corny and stupid I could not even watch the whole thing. All I could think of was what a ripoff of all things occult.
Yes, I write Theosophy and occult and have the title “rebirth” in my book. Ray also used the word “rebirth” for the folks who would go into the sweatlodge. He has attracted many jewish people…they have the dough and the wander lust to eat that up.
from Huffpo:
early 2007, Ray took over Oprah’s couch for two highly-rated shows devoted to The Secret, a New Age documentary purporting to unlock the mysteries of life and the universe, and show the way to happiness and success.
I was once asked to reprise my role as leader of Theosophy as I started it as HPB. But I said thanks but no thanks then. I have all but turned my back on so-called spirituality because I live it and it is not a thing apart from my life.
