When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers.

A word of caution about "Creative Visualization"

Today, the New Thought movement, under the pseudonym of "Law of Attraction" is stronger than ever, when the DVD “Secret” is best selling on Amazon.com and the author comes on the Oprah Winfrey shows one knows that there is a phenomenon at hand.
The "Secret" is nothing more than a regurgitated version of concepts from these books and others in a familiar theme. It is creative visualization to achieve your earthy goals from personal happiness to business. There is a catch however.
When forcing Ether to get something, which is not karmically deserved, usually there is a backlash. This backlash is coming from disturbing the nature of things.
It is useful to creatively visualize things that are beneficial for others and not for petty selfish gains.
Remember, Jesus said it; "Your needs are known.."

It is always wise to ad to our meditative session “I need this and that... IF it is agreeable with my karma”.

On healing! My best seller, the "Science of Mind" is heavily into the Arts of Healing. It should be noted that Healing should never be done in secret, without the knowledge of the recipient! This is messing with karma and it should not be meddled with in ignorance.
The techniques outlined in these books are powerful and can be called “white magic” or sorcery. Once upon the time one could get into serious trouble from the religious authorities for practicing or even talking about subjects such as this. Nowadays the only danger is that we might actually get what we asked for.

UPDATE...

The DVD is now split to two, in a controversy or artistic credit and infighting for, what else? Money.

The clash seems mainly over who deserves credit, and the wave of mainstream publicity, for this latest version of prosperity consciousness. The Hickses have preached the law of attraction while traveling with Abraham for 21 years. Ms. Byrne’s exposure to the notion is more recent: she was going through a rough patch in her life in 2004, when her daughter gave her a copy of “The Science of Getting Rich,” (See above) first published in 1910. The book discussed how focusing on gratitude can help a person take control of life. Ms. Byrne delved into the works of other self-help gurus, like Charles Haanel’s “Master Key System” from 1912; Prentice Mulford’s 19th-century “Thoughts Are Things”; and Robert Collier’s “Secret of the Ages” from 1926.
