I didn't know what to expect when I ordered them. Now I love the cards and use them a lot. They are uplifting and very positive.

Cited in The Secret Gravitational System, 'Ask and It Is Given' works with the ancient notion of: Ask and ye shall receive or seek and ye shall find. If offers incredible insight on the Law of Attraction, and is coupled with real life examples for practitioners to comprehend.

As with all of the Abraham material I have found that these cards are inspiring. I have purchase as many of the Abraham products as I have been able to. To my way of thinking that Abraham material is simply the best--it makes the most sense and explains the workings of this Universe so beautifully. I recommend all of the Abraham material to anyone who wants to learn how to live better.

I love these cards! They are a great addition to my daily affirmations routine. I love to give them a little shuffle and pick from the top, they are really universal too so don't worry about being told your trust must be in Buddha, God, Moses, or anybody. They work well for anyone interested in self-awareness, self-actualization, as meditation starters or just a friendly reminder through-out the day that you special and part of the plan of the Universe's greatness for you and others!

Anything by these authors is wonderful...these cards are great to keep on your coffee table for everyone to read....

Ask and it could be given, but the price is high. These books are filled with Christian propaganda and if you're fine with child torture and sacrifice, blood sacrifice and animal sacrifice of the bible, the worship of bio-tech people who create and torture animals, male supremacy, the slavery and oppression of women etc... you will perhaps be rewarded by a network of Christians who help you out. I don't know if it's worth the millions of heart cells you lose however. As for the meditation stuff....

You know, I used to read these books and I think it has it's positive and negative. The positive is, they are emotional and moral truths here - getting a picture of how you want things to go, planning, figuring out different scenarios and trying to use a type of mental and emotional strength to inspire real world events. There's a negative side, though. Women like to read these especially, I think, and sometimes we're not doing ourselves any favors. While there's some truth to making yourself attractive to abundance and getting the right mental attitude, setting your goals, and developing enthusiasm... all helps with your real world efforts. However, meditating and visualizing on it's own won't get you anywhere and it won't necessarily do anything for you in a world that may ignore your positive thinking entirely. I used to read far out meditation books - like if you visualized a healthy animal, it would heal etc... I suppose it could work if we were in a bio-robotic matrix or network and your meditation inspired others to help you with your goal-oriented thinking. If they don't do something along with you, it doesn't really work and if you don't understand the process of natural laws you might put yourself at risk.

It's just that I've found out over the years that meditation does not always solve problems and can actually put you in danger, This is because these books give you the false illusion you have control that you don't really have. If you meditate say.... escaping an abusive situation etc.... (I've actually read books like this along with meditation "healing" techniques) you might not take the necessary action (if there is a possible one) to get away. I meditated with those healing books when a pet I cared about was dying, after the vet tried everything, and the creature I loved still got sick and died. I've also meditated for money, abundance, and a positive environment and got none of it. In fact, people stole from me, abused me and further made my life miserable. It's sometimes a very aggressive, abusive, world out there and positive thinking alone can make you not have the instincts, or real world connection you need to make survival decisions. Meditating getting yourself out a desperate situation not only does not work, but it immobilizes you. How many people have cried out to a god for love, or thought that faith alone would get them through some situation and still were abused and suffered greatly? Many. All soldiers on the battlefield cry out to imaginary beings to save them from their fate - they still suffer and die. You have to do what you can to save yourself - and you have to show up for others, because the imaginary beings won't. I believe faith and emotional intelligence only works within the laws of nature - we are the solutions we seek. I think learning these laws would help women more than this stuff. One thing I will say though, the emotional intelligence some of these books gave me - helped keep me from despairing and the positive thinking gave me a bit of an edge in keeping my spirits up. The goal-setting gave me hope for finding a way in the future and it did teach me some ways to deal in relationships. It's just the meditation ALONE didn't do it. Sports athletes do use visualization, and your emotions and belief are connected to your ability to function and achieve. It's just that you also need medicine, knowledge and other things to function.

I guess I've learned we live in a mechanical - and often cruel - universe, and we need to study, and work, to fix things. If there is magic, it is in the practical application of natural laws - inventions are so amazing they are like magic. I often think having a box that tells us stories in beautiful, color in our living rooms - a tv - is a truly, magical, thing. Or our electrical lights - flip a switch - magic! So, I think these books are best used in harmony with science and logic. Imagination is the first step to science - learning about the tech aspect of it is very important for women, more and more girls need to learn practical, real world applications, It will be far more valuable and you will be less vulnerable in a hostile place. Politics, Geography, Science, Mathematics, Social skills, Defense applications and human/creature rights benefited me more than this and would do the same for most of us. I still use the techniques for inspiration, but I'm adding to it now.

I will say this, the artwork in some of these decks and cards are beautiful, if you can mentally scrub out the Christian stuff and imagine something else, or just buy for the artwork, might be worth what you spend.
