However, this free e-book edition is not in public domain. It cannot be shared, distributed or reproduced in whole or in part.

Copy as preface page for e-book of “The Science of Getting Rich” A note from Rhonda Byrne, creator and executive producer of ‘The Secret’. Less than two years ago, at a time in my life when I was facing challenges from every direction – business, relationships, family, you name it – I stumbled across this book. Or, to be more accurate, IT stumbled across me! I can honestly say that, since that first night when a tattered printed transcript found its way to me (thanks to one of my daughters), my life has never been the same. Once you read it yourself, you will understand why. And “why” was the question I had been asking myself. Why are there people who seem to attract unlimited wealth into their lives, while others, equally as capable or talented or worthy, suffer from poverty and lack? As you’ll discover when you work your way through this wonderful little book, it has nothing to do with education, status, talent, environment, intellectual ability, physical prowess, or geography. Wallace Wattles explains, in simple, straightforward language, how ANYONE, regardless of their background or circumstances, can attract wealth into their lives.

  • A Framing Analysis of the Spiritual Views of Oprah Winfrey
    Viewing the World through Oprah’s Eyes: A Framing Analysis of the Spiritual Views of Oprah Winfrey ________________________ Presented to the Faculty Liberty University School of Communication ___________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Master of Arts in Communication By Marianne Jeanette Crosby May, 1 2009 __________________________________________________ Cecil V. Kramer, Jr., D. Min., Chairman Date __________________________________________________ William Mullen, Ph.D. Date _________________________________________________ Randall Pruitt, Ph.D. Date Copyright @ 2009 Marianne Jeanette Crosby All Rights Reserved Abstract Oprah Winfrey is an American icon. She has a hand in almost every form of media: movies, television, books, Internet, and radio. In her rise to success, another place that she has infiltrated is the church. Because of her wide range of influence, her thoughts and teaching on spirituality have made their way into both the home and church. Over ten years ago, talk shows had a reputation for portraying mainly negative topics. To combat this stereotype, she made a push to encourage more positive topics of discussion on her show. Yet after receiving criticism for “preaching,” she withdrew from spiritually natured shows. However, in the last couple of years, her shows have again seen more focus on spirituality. While Winfrey has been both praised and criticized for these spiritual views, there has not been much written about what these views actually are. There has also been virtually no study to compare her views of ten years ago to the more recent views. Therefore, this thesis uses Erving Goffman’s framing analysis to extract the frames she presents on spirituality on her talk show, The Oprah Winfrey Show.

  • Law of Attraction (New Thought)
    Law of attraction (New Thought) In the New Thought philosophy, the Law of Attraction is the belief that positive or negative thoughts bring positive or negative experiences into a person's life.[1][2] The belief is based on the ideas that people and their thoughts are made from pure energy, and that through the process of like energy attracting like energy a person can improve their health, wealth, and personal relationships. Advocates generally combine cognitive reframing techniques with affirmations and creative visualization to replace limiting or self-destructive ("negative") thoughts with more empowered, adaptive ("positive") thoughts. A key component of the philosophy is the idea that in order to effectively change one's negative thinking patterns, one must also "feel" (through creative visualization) that the desired changes have already occurred. This combination of positive thought and positive emotion is believed to allow one to attract positive experiences and opportunities by achieving resonance with the proposed energetic law.[3] The Law of Attraction has no scientific basis[4] and has been dubbed a pseudoscience.[5] A number of researchers have criticized the misuse of scientific concepts by its proponents.[4][6][7][8] Contents History Descriptions Philosophical and religious basis Criticism Prominent supporters See also Notes Sources External links History The New Thought (Law of Attraction Origins) grew out of the teachings of Phineas Quimby in the early 19th century. Early in his life, Quimby was diagnosed with tuberculosis. However, medicinal treatment wasn't working, so he began carriage riding through his hometown, Lebanon, New Hampshire. He then regained his health and recovered, an event that prompted his study of "mind over body".[9] Although he never used the words 'Law of Attraction', he explained this in a statement that captured the concept in the field of health: the trouble is in the mind, for the body is only the house for the mind to dwell in, and we put a value on it according to its worth.

  • Oprah's Chicken Soup for the Soul in an Age of Angst
    OWN: Oprah’s Chicken Soup for the Soul in an Age of Angst JOSHUA K. WRIGHT “I want to use television not only to entertain, but to help people lead better lives.” – Oprah Winfrey No individual has shaped the American zeitgeist over the past thirty years more than Oprah Winfrey. With a unique brand of entertainment that was part therapeutic, part spiritual Winfrey used her television platform to reach the hearts and minds of the American public. Winfrey gracefully transcended race unlike any black celebrity before or since her. At its peak, The Oprah Winfrey Show (ABC), which won 47 Daytime Emmy Awards, averaged 42 million viewers a week. Millions of white women adopted Winfrey as the African-American sister or best friend that they never had. For African-American women (and men), Winfrey was the ultimate embodiment of racial uplift. Winfrey rose from poverty in Mississippi to become the first black female billionaire in North America. Although critics have accused her of pandering to white viewers, she never lost support within the African-American community. The National Museum of African-American History and Culture (NMAAHC) opened the “Watching Oprah” exhibition in June 2018. “Just as Oprah Winfrey watched TV coverage of the Civil Rights Movement and was shaped by the era in which she was born and raised, she has gone on to have a profound impact on how Americans viewed themselves and each other in the tumultuous decades that followed,” says the museum’s founding director, Lonnie Bunch. JOSHUA K. WRIGHT, Ph.D., is an associate professor of history in the Global Studies Department at Trinity Washington University in Washington, D.C.

  • The New-Thought Movement
    THE NEW-THOUGHT MOVEMENT Compiled by Campbell M Gold (2006) --()-- Overview The New Thought movement appeared in the late 19th and early 20th century, and was an informal collection of organizations, authors, philosophers, and individuals who shared a common set of metaphysical beliefs concerning the Law of Attraction, creative visualization, the power of the subconscious mind, personal power, healing, life force, and transformation, etc. Central to New Thought belief is the principle of the universe being pervaded and upheld by an infinite source of power and available energy; and, as a consequence, the individual can create their own reality, and 'attract' what they want', using visualisations, affirmations, meditation, and prayer, etc. Christological Flavour Some of the early New Thought groups had strong Christian foundations and referred to the Bible as their foundation material. Consequently, the Law of Attraction was presented in Christian terminology and examples. However, this should not put off the modern eclectic person as the Christological references can be readily translated into the more general and universal terms, which are used in later and contemporary works. Many early New Thought proponents, as is the case today, emphasise the Law of Attraction coupled with the transforming ability of the individual's subconscious mind, and have based their practical systems thereon. In 1926, in his New Thought book, The Secret of the Ages , Robert Collier wrote: 'A LL over the world, sick, weak and devitalized men and women are searching for health and strength. By the hundreds of thousands, they drag their weary and aching boxes around, or languish on sick beds, waiting for someone to bring health to them corked up in a bottle.

  • The Secret (Rhonda Byrne)
    THE SECRET (RHONDA BYRNE) ABSTRACT This book abstract is intended to provide just a glimpse of this wonderful book with the hope that you may like to read the original book at leisure and enjoy its real beauty. Chapter 1: The Secret Revealed Everything that’s coming in your life you are attracting into your life. And it’s attracted to you by virtue of images you are holding in your mind. It’s what you are thinking. Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you. Charles Hanel: The greatest and the most in fallible law upon which the entire system of creation depends. The predominant thought or mental attitude is a magnet and it will invariably attract such conditions as correspond to its nature. John Assaraf: You become what you think about most, but you also attract what you think about most. Thoughts has a frequency. Here is the problem. Most people are thinking about what they don’t want, and they are wondering why it shows up again and again. It’s a “don’t want” epidemic. You are a transmission tower, and you are transmitting that frequency with your thoughts! If you want to change anything in your life, change your thoughts. Bob Proctor: See yourself living in abundance and you will attract it. It works every time, with every person. Bob Doyle: The law of attraction doesn’t care whether you perceive something to be good or bad, or whether you don’t want it or whether you do want it. You don’t press pause, you don’t press stop.
