I also watched The Secret movie. I don't doubt there is truth to it, but the focus of the people in it was really disgusting--money, posessions, very superficial things. I would still use the techniques; focusing on what you accomplish is effective no matter what the reason is. It's too bad it's so consumerist, because it will turn off the people whose values are aligned with the common good, and would do the greatest good using these techniques.
It was good to watch Zeitgeist after The Secret--you see the Secret and think, "Oh, wow, I can manifest [a bunch of junk I don't need and will ultimately make me less happy]!", the Zeitgeist movie puts things back on track--I do need to manifest some things, but to help create a better world for everyone, more simple, without all this greed.
-----------------------
Okay, I had only watched half of Zeitgeist. The last half is silly, blathering on for awhile about how what really improves our lives is technology. I thought they were joking at first. Didn't they mean to say family or friends or something like that? Silly silly silly.
