The Law of Attraction - Great Revelation or New Age Snake Oil Scam?

[Winston]

Indian guru explains why the law of attraction doesn't work. Wow the girl who's interviewing him is hot. I never saw an Indian girl look that hot before. lol. She's an actress it says.

[Winston]

Man look how stupid and dumb everyone is. Everyone on YouTube thinks you can attract what you want just by focusing on it. So dumb and delusional. Why does everyone believe this shit? It contradicts basic reality and logic.

The concept of opposite attraction is true only in physical things like magnets. But in life, in our thoughts, law of attraction means like attracting like. If you think optimistic things about yourself, more good thoughts will flow to you, but if you focus on the insecurities, more of such degrading thoughts will make you depressed. Thus like attracting like. And people think law of attraction is only about thinking and visualising but doing nothing, it's not that, first you need to create a positive thought, or a wish of how you wish to live a blissful life, introspect deeply what makes you blissful then act like you are already accepting what you have wished for. A person doing all these will be blissful forever after achieving the consistency of this practice, the desire for the result is also vanished, it becomes only about the process and not about any result. That's law of attraction.

@Siddhant Satao Who said that the law of attraction doesn't work! What ever you put your attention on you will attract. What ever your belief is at the moment will be self fulfilling prophecy ! What ever you repeat in your mind ,emotion, the law of attraction responds, it doesn't differentiate between good and bad...

​ @Loren Henriksen not true. you can only attract what's achievable and meant to be. if you are not cut out to be a gymnast, you can't attract it by focusing on it. that's sheer delusion. you also have to be talented to be a gymnast. ask any coach. he will tell you that without talent, the LOA isn't gonna help you and he will not waste his time training you. the coaches live in the real world, not the fake new age bs world. why are you all soooooooo dumb? are you all for real?

[jamesbond]

Some people swear that the law of attraction works. There certainly has been a lot of books and seminars about it. Other people say that it's complete nonsense.

[Winston]

I don't understand something. We do not have control over most things in life as we all know, so how can we be "creating our own reality" as New Agers always claim? Isn't that an obvious contradiction? Ancient people always said that our fate is up to the gods, not us, so this "we create our own reality" concept is a modern new age concept, it's not part of ancient wisdom. That's what New Agers never tell you. The ancients believed in seeking inner peace and endurance and gaining the favor of the gods, they never said that you can create your own reality with your thoughts. That's a modern invention and myth. All New Agers have bought into it, even though they call themselves freethinkers. Go figure.

Here's an example of what I mean. Below New Age speaker Dolores Cannon talks about how we create our own reality and that there are no limitations except for the limitations you put on yourself. Why do Americans and New Agers accept this uncritically?



Excuse me. What's the evidence that there are no limitations? Belief isn't going to let you walk through walls or fly off a building. We all know that. So this makes no sense and doesn't fit what we see and experience in common sense reality. Just because a few people have beaten the odds doesn't mean that anything is possible and that most people can accomplish the impossible. The truth is most people will never achieve their dreams or become rich or find their soulmate, so they have to settle. As the saying goes "You get what you need, not what you want." This is the case with most people, only a small percentage of people become rich or achieve their dreams or find their soulmate. This is the stark reality that New Agers always try to hide from you. All we can do is find inner peace and let go of our attachments and lower our expectations and live a more simple minimalist lifestyle. The good news that no one is telling you (except me) is that we can move to a better country abroad where we can have more freedom, a lower cost of living, healthier lifestyle and social connection. (e.g. Thailand, Cambodia, Philippines, SE Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe) Leaving America will make your life a lot better, freer, healthier and more authentic. This is the REAL achievable solution that all New Agers are hiding from you and won't even touch for some unknown reason.

There is something that blocks it because you think there is.
We are creators, we manifest.

It doesn't matter if he is asleep or not. You are overthinking it.
Let go of the intellect. Let go of what if this or that….etc.
Just heal… think of nothing else. See light flowing from your hands through your son's entire body.
You are a creator and eternal, STOP doubting yourself.

@Eternal Remember What You Are! That's new age BS. We are not all powerful. The average person cannot even lift a toothpick off the table using telekinesis. So how are we all powerful? If belief creates reality then we would all be living in a utopia and disappointment would not exist. What you are proposing is victim blaming too. Even those with genuine telekinesis can only move very small objects with their mind, not large objects like the Jedi do in Star Wars. If belief creates reality then how come the Titanic sank even though everyone believed it was unsinkable? How come Amelia Earhart didn't make the last leg of her flight even though she believed she would? How come people who believe they will win money in the stock market get disappointed? Every time I ask these simple questions, you new agers run away in fear. Why?

You seem lost, my friend.
You don't belong here, in these conversations. You are a very low level awakening stage. You are at level one.
That's why you are so angry about things you do not understand.
You see this world as physical, talking about telekinesis. lol
I suggest you move on and ignore me.
When you reach at least level 10 come back and ask questions.
Good luck.

@Eternal Remember What You Are! What's the evidence that we are all powerful gods like Q in Star Trek: The Next Generation? How am I lost? I spend everyday seeking truth and am the ULTIMATE truth seeker because I apply critical thinking to all sides. I know every theory out there. I've asked these questions since the 1990s. You new agers always run away in fear from these simple questions. How come only upper middle class yuppies in nice houses like to hear that "you create your own reality" whereas lower class people hate it and think it's BS? That should tell you something. It's just self delusion, not reality. If you think faith can move mountains, show me. Go out and move mountains with your mind, like Jesus said you could. Deep down you know you can't.

@Eternal Remember What You Are! Furthermore, just because I am a spiritual truth seeker too, like you, doesn't mean I have to buy all the new age BS out there, such as the claim that we are all powerful gods with unlimited potential. Who actually believes that? Isn't it obvious crap and self-delusional and feeding the narcissistic American ego? How come down to earth people don't believe that? Why do Americans love to gobble up this kind of BS so easily? In Europe, rational down to earth people don't gobble that up like Americans do.

[Lucas88]

The Law of Attraction is indeed BS. We cannot create our own reality with our thoughts alone. We are neither Brahman nor all-powerful beings. Indeed, we are beholden to all kinds of factors beyond our control, both physical and metaphysical.

The mind can influence reality but in order to manifest desired changes in one's own life one must have a powerful aura and the kind of extreme concentration of thought that only an advanced meditator can possess and then actively will such desired changes into existence while in a deep trance state. Even still months of consistent meditation might be necessary in order to achieve the desired results. But regular people can't change their own reality just by thinking it for a few seconds. That's just delusional. The majority of New Agers have neither true practical knowledge of occultism nor any idea of how the deeper levels of reality really work.

Question I sent out to a number of Truthers I correspond with. Do any of you have any answers?

I have a simple question about the concept that "things don't exist unless perceived" that is often brought up among New Agers and Truthers, when they mention things like the double slit experiment, the observer effect, or the "tree falling in the forest" analogy. If things don't exist unless perceived then:

1. How come if you step on a banana peel and you don't see it, you can still slip and fall from it? Or if you stub your toe while walking, it still hurts even though you didn't look down?
2. How come if you walk backwards in a room, you will still hit the wall behind you even though you don't see it?
3. How come if you turn your back to an avalanche or bullet, it will still hit you and hurt or kill you even though you didn't see it? I'm sure JFK didn't see the bullet that hit him, for example.
4. How come in a glass maze at an amusement park, I still keep hitting the glass walls even though I don't see them or know that they are there?
Etc.

These are obvious questions. So how come none of the podcast interviewers on YT ever ask them? Even George Noory and Art Bell of Coast to Coast AM never asked their guests this simple obvious question when the subject came up of "objects not existing unless perceived" in quantum physics. How can I be the only one that sees the obvious? I don't get it. It makes me wonder if I'm the only real person in the matrix. lol. Gotta wonder. Every time I ask this question to New Agers and Truthers, they always run away in fear and are stumped and have no answer. I've been waiting for an answer to this since the 1990s. Why is it so hard to get an answer to such a simple question? What is wrong with everyone?

I also have another similar question. Matt McKinley and Howdie Mickoski keep saying that expectations create reality, so that when you are in the afterlife state, you will see what you expect. They also say that "thoughts create your reality" too of course, which all New Agers pontificate universally. But if that's so then:

1. How come people don't make money in the stock market or in casinos merely by expecting to?
2. How come Amelia Earhart didn't make the last leg of her journey even though she expected to and was brave and confident?
3. How come the Titanic sunk even though everyone expected it was unsinkable?
4. How come disappointment exists when it shouldn't? How come most things end up in disappointment even when you are optimistic and hopeful?
Etc. Etc.

Again, this is a simple question, so how come no one dares to ask or answer these questions? No one on YouTube brings them up, and no one on Coast to Coast AM does either, even though these are obvious questions. How can that be? Very baffling. How do I see obvious things that everyone else is blind to? It makes me wonder if this is some bardo state and everyone else is unreal? I sent these questions to Matt and Howdie before but they always run away in fear and have no answer. I've been wondering about these things since the 1990s but everyone is afraid of simple questions that debunk their delusions and erroneous premises it seems.

Do you have any answers? Can I finally get some answers and explanations?

What do you guys think of the Law of Vibration? See below.

Comments I posted under the videos above:

Question for those who believe thoughts/beliefs create reality: How come everyone believed the Titanic was unsinkable but they were wrong? How come Amelia Earhart's belief that she would make the last leg of her journey didn't come true? How come you can't win in casinos or the stock market by believing you will? Why does disappointment exist if you can make whatever you want come true with your thoughts? These are simple questions yet New Agers always run away from them in fear. Why? Why does simple questions debunk everyone? Is everyone delusional and illogical?

Why can't that old guy in this video use his thoughts to reverse his aging and make himself young again? Same question for Bruce Lipton. Why can't he regrow his hair using his thoughts? LOL

Hi all,
I just uploaded my video rant and critique of "The Secret" and Law of Attraction, which teaches that whatever you think about will manifest, but takes it to the extreme.

Here it is.



Here is my article debunking the Law of Attraction.

Winston,how do you explain the mirror technique getting such positive results?

You looked goodlooking here,you look better in higher resolution media/photos.

Erekteus, if thoughts create reality, then why can't you go into a casino and win by expecting to? Or win in the stock market by expecting to? If it was that easy everyone would be in their own paradise, if thoughts could really create reality. And disappointment wouldn't exist if thoughts created reality, as even children know. See how easy it is to debunk this with basic logic, common sense, and everyday experiences?

[Winston]

Is this true that if you visualize what you want then the quanum field will manifest it into your life? lol. Gee that sounds so easy. Does this actually work for some people? Maybe if the universe isn't against you then it works better for you?

If we could create our own reality then everyone would live in their own utopia and disappointment wouldn't exist. Duh. This goes contrary to everyday experiences and common sense and basic logic. We do not all have the power of Q from Star Trek who can manifest anything he wants instantly with godlike powers. You folks are delusional. Delusion doesn't make something true. Sorry. The law of attraction is super easy to debunk with basic logic and common sense and everyday experiences.

Sorry but believing in something doesn't make it true. Everyone believed the Titanic was unsinkable but that didn't make it true. Amelia Earhart believed she would make the last leg of her journey too, but she didn't. Why don't you try going into a Vegas casino believing you will win the jackpot and see if that works? LMAO! LOL. This is so stupid and low IQ. Below average. If this was true then disappointment wouldn't exist. Duh. Even children know that most expectations turn into disappointment. Duh.

4:27 we don’t have to wait for our desires to manifest. If you believe that it will take time. It will instantly manifest because you see that you have to wait a period for it to manifest. So if we would get rid of the idea that we have to wait until it show up in the 3D, your desires will manifest faster. I’ve tried it differently and it worked. But you gotta know it deep down that you don’t have to wait for it.

This was the comment I posted under a video that stated that we do not achieve things because of our limiting beliefs. And that we cannot sell a product or find that true love only because of the limitations we put on ourselves. The "limiting beliefs" theme permeates many of these LOA videos.

"You are confusing cause with effect.

You are saying I cannot sell something because I have limiting beliefs. I say I cannot sell something because of a limited market demand for the product I am selling, insufficient action to sell it and the product not being attractive enough. And I come to that conclusion '' after'' testing the market.

You do not have to be a rocket scientist to understand that a person who is negative and does not even try will fail. But that is only 50% of the equation. The other 50% is the market forces outside that person.

There is such a thing as the market.

One does not say 'nobody is buying' and then nobody buys as a result. One tries to sell in earnest, but if the market sucks, or the product is not popular, no one will buy. Or very, very few people will buy. And it is then that you come to the conclusion that nobody or almost nobody buys it. Because the market does not need the product.

So, you need to tweak the product or expand the market. And keep trying until the law of probabilities works, the numbers games works and you win in the end.

Whether you are positive or negative, market forces stay constant and they do not depend on your subjective views, your positivity or negativity.

What inner negativity prevents you from doing is taking action.

If you take action, improve the product, change the price, etc, then you will start selling. Or you may offer it in another country. Once you start taking action, again, it does not matter if you feel good or bad, have a smile on your face or a sad expression, these market forces remain unaffected by your emotions. They only respond to actions.

As far as love market, the same principle applies. If you are a 70 years old man, have no money, are bald and 5'2" and you want to date a 22 year old model, then you are again subject to market forces. She will laugh at you no matter whether you are positive or negative.

So, no. I disagree. Outside factors matter a lot".

I always refute people who state that and I almost never get comments. I also once wrote to an author of a book that stated that poverty was caused by limiting beliefs in the mind. I gave examples of droughts in Sudan and of living in Communist countries, etc. Or how Oman was a gas rich country and the people had everything there, and next door, there was Yemen with no gas and a big population and a lot of people were poor. He got angry and asked me to never write to him again.

[Winston]

Check this out. lol. Apparently the law of attraction believers have a new term: Quantum Jumping. They claim that with this technique you can jump to the alternate universe where whatever you want has come true. lol. Dang. They forget that there is no evidence that parallel universes even exist. And mathematical equations do not prove that they do. Even Tesla said that. Why is everyone so gullible? How come none of these spiritual/metaphysical videos have any common sense? Can't one be spiritual without believing in BS and that we are all powerful and can manifest anything, especially since it isn't even true? lol. Here are some videos about how to Quantum Jump if you're interested. lol. Let me know if any of this works for you.
