The Secret (Extended Edition)

Is a nice dvd,considering that it has the option of having it totally in spanish...I bought it for my mom that doesn't know english,so far so good.
Reason is 4 stars and not 5 is because the complex way in which you have to select the option of spanish only (that is if you have issues understanding the operation of a DVD player)...other than that it makes a great purchase and a great gift.
On the other hand it's amazing since it has UNIVERSAL DVD REGION,meaning that if you live in europe or mexico or china,it doesn't matter this dvd is designed to be played in any dvd player.

I was told about this from a co-worker and I truly enjoyed the cd and have watched it over and over again to see things that I had missed the first time.

Yes you are in control of your life. This video is excellent, highly recommended. I have used these principals to make a huge difference in my life already!

Having seen both the original and "extended" versions of The Secret, I agree the original edition with Esther Hicks (before she was cut out by Rhonda Byrne) is definitely the better of the two. It's worth noting the extended version doesn't contain more content, just another speaker substituted in for Ms. Hicks who doesn't compare. As mentioned by others the law of attraction is not a newly discovered concept and hardly a "secret", and yes there's more to it than this DVD would have you think. This program treats the subject matter superficially, and I found the special effects in the beginning to be cheesy and over the top. The Secret is heavy on hype and promise, but falls short on delivery.

I've read about the Law of Attraction over the years, and am usually excited enough about the subject matter to love most of the media I've encountered. Not so in this case. If this is your first introduction to the law of attraction then it's better than nothing (perhaps - so long as the superficial and decidedly materialistic slant doesn't put you off). So it's not complete in itself, but it does offer a taste of more to come through other sources. If you insist on seeing what the hype is about be sure to see the original version. There are still copies of the original available if you do an online search.

I first saw the extended version and was hugely disappointed. Then at the prompting of a friend I saw the original edition which compelled me to look into Esther Hicks' other works. Happily her DVDs and books approach this subject on a deeper and more meaningful level. (If you can, watch "The Secret Behind the Secret" DVD.) I give the extended edition of The Secret half a star, and the original version 3 stars for Ms. Hicks' participation and early collaboration on the project.

For those that think there is no scientific evidence to support these findings, think again.

When I first watched the secret it had all the potential to be the 'life changing secret' that it claimed, however this film is more philosophical and actually lacking in any scientific proof. So what's the solution?

its called "What The Bleep."

What the Bleep, (especially the quantum edition), has all the science that the secret was lacking. Interestingly enough, What the Bleep seems to have all the facts, while not being totally clear on what to do with the facts. This is where the secret comes in.


BASICALLY: The Secret and What The Bleep complement each other perfectly and the combination of both leave very few unanswered questions in a field where every answer only leads to several more questions.


1. Have an open mind
2. Get the Secret
3. Get What The Bleep
4. THINK - (there will be alot of, well if this means this... and this means this.. then... WOWWW!!)
5. Allow it to change your life - Change other lives by sharing the Secret...
(don't you wish someone came along and introduced these ideas earlier in life?)
