Gelukkig lijkt the Secret-hype alweer een beetje overgewaaid. Een fraai staaltje van spiritueel materialisme. Op de onderstaande site vond ik nog wat steekhoudend commentaat op The Secret:
Integral Naked Presents:: "• By teaching that the world quite literally revolves around you, The Secret encourages and entrenches narcissism. In developmental psychology, narcissism doesn’t mean an unhealthy obsession with thinking only about yourself, it means you can’t think about yourself. The capacity for self-reflexive awareness just isn’t there. The entire world and everyone in it is simply an extension of your-self, and you are literally unable to take the perspective of another human being. This is not mystical union; this is pre-rational fusion, and without the ability to take the perspectives of other sentient beings, the entire foundation for ethics evaporates."
