Book Reviews - Living in Tune with the Laws

by Megha Bajaj

Some books have the ability to transform a sceptic into an ardent student. When I whisked The Secret from my editor’s desk, it was with the question, “What is it about this book that everyone is reading it, and speaking of it?” Answers came, with each page turned. Although this book is founded on the age-old truth that you are what you think, known to almost every religious and spiritual teacher of the world, the way in which this wisdom has been made practical for the new generation is unique. For instance, she writes, “Think of it this way: we understand that a television station’s transmission tower broadcasts via a frequency, which is transformed into pictures on your television. Most of us don’t really understand how it works, but we know that each channel has a frequency, and when we tune into that frequency, we see the picture on our television. We choose the frequency by selecting the channel, and we then receive the pictures broadcast on that channel. If we want to see different pictures on our television, we change the channel, and tune into a new frequency. You are a human transmission tower, and you are more powerful than any television tower created on earth. Your transmission creates your life, and it creates the world. The frequency you transmit reaches beyond cities, beyond countries, beyond the world. It reverberates through the entire universe. And you are transmitting that frequency with your thoughts!”

Also, what adds credibility and energy to the book is that it is sprinkled with contributions from some of the best-known writers, speakers, doctors and healers. For a fulfilling relationship, you have ideas from the expert, Dr John Gray of the Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus fame, who says, “You become the solution for you. Don’t point to another person, and say, ‘Now you owe me, and you need to give me more.’ Instead, give more to yourself. Take time off to give to yourself, and in a sense to fill yourself up to fullness, to where now you can overflow in giving.” For health, you read from Dr Ben Johnson, physician, author, and leader in energy healing, who writes, “Remove psychological stress from the body, and the body does what it was designed to do. It heals itself.” The Secret seems to have an answer to all your problems, be it money, be it the world, or even your self. The book is empowering to say the least, and has enough inspiring stories to get you motivated to realize that you are the Secret to your own life.
