So I have horrible pure obsessional thoughts. I tend to research a lot about symptoms of various diseases and mental illnesses. I think I have all of them lol, which I know in reality I don't. However I just watched "The Secret" and am scared that since I've been researching about all these diseases and mental illnesses, that I will end up eventually getting them due to the negative thinking and the universe acting according to my thoughts. Any insight people?

I have watched the secret, listened to the dvd's and read the book. I find it very interesting, and somewhat true. I believe that it is laws bult into the universe, like the law of gravity. I believe the bible. I believe that God created these laws like He created the 10 commandment laws and the law of gravity. Throughout time people have discoverd these laws, just like the law of gravity was discovered. I believe that these laws were discovered but some have not discovered the creator of these laws. The God of the Hebrews or The God of Abraham, Isreal and Jacob created these laws. King James Bible explaines.
The bible teaches us about this God, thease laws and to be positive, not to have but one fear, not to worry. I have seen these laws in action and am amaised. I do have one fear though.
PROV 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

Hi. I have "The Secret" on audio book. In the secret you always have a chance to change what your negative thiking has created. I am reading a book called " What to say when you talk to yourself". It's a great book on why we think negatively and how we can permanently change. It also says, like the secret, that the mind gives you what you ask for through your thoughts. The Bible says "What a man thinketh in his heart, so is he". That says you are what you think. All three arebasically saying the same thing. In the secret, it says that the "Universe" is your spiritual leader. It's God for some but whatever religion you in in, whatever you call God, that's who the universe is to you. You just have to understand what they mean in that book.

They all are just saying that we create who we are and who we become with our thinking. Be it, negative or positive. That's the whole point of this program, too. Chang your thinking, change your life.

jinul1m64, you said you just read the secret, If you are in the remotest sense Christian, don't read or watch that stuff. It is new-Age.
If however you are not Christian, may I suggest that you look into it, it has given me MUCH MORE Peace!

New Age thinking like The Secret and Course in Miracles is what gave me anxiety disorder. It's garbage and it doesn't work or we would all either be rich millionares or dead 10 times over already. I am now in the process of 'renewing' my mind through the Bible..specifically Joyce Meyer. I had no idea that New Age stuff could lead to insanity, I thought it was all just love and peace. There's a good book called The Light that was Dark.

Thanks Mom!
It took a long time for me to come to the Bible, for years I thought Jesus was just a cool dude who set a good example, and that the idea of 'one way' was just ridiculous. Now I realize that 'one way' is for our protection, because so many 'ways' are just dead ends that lead you nowhere. One day I was having a terrible anxiety attack and I put on a show about the DaVinci Code. A preacher was talking about how these 'new age' ideas are not new at all, that they were around way before Jesus and I thought, "I've been duped". I asked myself, 'have you even read the whole New Testament for yourself?' So I got the "Enjoying everyday Life Bible" and it just blew me away. Not only is all the 'new age' stuff in there, but everything else you always wanted to know! I thank God everyday!
