Myth
busting your thoughts towards freedom
Abraham
Lincoln's famous American Civil War plea is more appropriate than ever. He
observed that “The dogmas of the past are inadequate to the stormy present. As
our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.”
INTRODUCTION
There
have been many successes, failures and near misses with respect to unlocking
the doors to the Law of Attraction. For
some, creating their own reality and attracting all of the positive aspects of
life have been relatively easy. There
are those who either consciously or unconsciously have placed their life on the
road of positive vibrations and all that they desire effortlessly flows their
way. If you are one of those people, you
do not really need to read this book.
Then there are those who intuitively know that
the principles of the Law of Attraction feel right and its conscious use can
break the chains that bind their lives.
This group has managed to experience some success in its use but the
major breakthrough in creating and attracting life transforming events still
remains elusive. For you, this book
will eliminate those final barriers of thought patterns that have brought you
to the promised mental land, but which have not let you enter the mental land
of “milk and honey.”
For the majority
of you who desire change in your life, you must come to understand a basic
truth. All of the spiritual principles;
all of the self-help books; all of the life coaching and positive talk on TV
shows and in books will be of little value to you unless you de-program your
mind of dogma and break the thoughts patterns that have kept you bound in a
never ending cycle of frustration and even misery. For you this book is, to use a cliché, a “must
read!”
When one hears the
term “dogma,” the tendency is to think in a religious context. Generally speaking, that context is
correct. However, while attention will
be given to religious dogma in this book, it is necessary to go beyond the
mental theological chains to totally free the mind so that it may properly and
convincingly utilize the basic precepts of the Law of Attraction. In order to consciously and actively create
one’s own reality, it is necessary to examine ALL of the roots of dogma that
act as a barrier to success.

It is clear from
the above definition of dogma that it goes beyond religious dictums. Any set of beliefs that appear authoritative
and which are considered to be “absolutely true” create the base of binding
thought forms that act as a lock on the door of personal and spiritual
freedom. It is in this context that we
will examine religious, political, economic, social and even scientific/medical
dogmas that have kept the human mind in a perpetual state of slavery. By some, these dogmas have been called
“thoughts that poison” the mind. For
many, this mental poison has caused undo suffering, misery, frustration and even
death in both historical and contemporary times. It is the intent of this book to expose this
poison and to bring it into the light of reason and spiritual truth. The goal is not to treat the symptom of this
mental slavery, but rather to find the cure that will eliminate mental barriers
and enable and empower you to weed your mind of these ideas and beliefs that
have historically kept the majority of humanity from the Promised Land. When you finish reading this book you will be
able to shout Martin Luther King’s words, “FREE AT LAST, FREE AT LAST, THANK
GOD ALMIGHTY, WE ARE FREE AT LAST!”

LET MY PEOPLE GO!
I was delighted to come across your blog this morning and I can't wait to track down your book. This is exactly the sort of literature I want to read and write. Spirituality does not need to be dogmatic. It should be thrilling, mysterious, captivating, and something that excites us. After all, isn't that what life should do as well? I think we need to reconsider what "prayer" really is and how much we need it in this buzzing, plugged in yet isolated world. It's time to get excited about the spirit of life! I look forward to following you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jess. I was going to publish a Dogma book, but for now I'm just going to make some chapter posts. We shall see. Of course, the WG books have lots to say on the subject. Truly the times are interesting. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
