The-Meta-Secret-Book-DVD-Movie in Singapore

The Meta Secret Book And DVD Now Available In Singapore!

Author: Dr Mel Gill    Usual Book Price: $31.95 (b4 GST)  Usual DVD Price: $49.95 (b4 GST)    Distributed by Rank Books

THE META SECRET, a movie about a Secret beyond All Secrets, delves deeply into the Laws of Attraction. It features comprehensive, Step-by-Step “How-To” Techniques of Manifestation to help you create the Wealth, Love, Health and Happiness you’ve always dreamed of. It is based on real – life events, beginning with the Near-Death Experience of a Motivational Speaker and Radio Talk Show host and his friendships with the Masters of Wisdom.

Some Meta Secret Teachers return to refocus in greater depth on several other important Laws of Attraction and further discuss the mysterious workings of the universe.

The Meta Secret movie is all about the “How To” apply all the original “Law of Attraction” types of movies out there. It fills the gaps left by “The Secret”, “Pass It On”, “Moses Code”, “The Secret Behind the Secret” which did not offer step-by-step explanations on “how to” apply the Law of Attraction and the 7 other Hermetic Laws.

All Philosophy is based on seven Cosmic Laws. Thot, the Egyptian God of Wisdom = Hermes Trismegistos, the Triple Great Hermes of the Ancient Greeks, had once written them down on Emerald Tables, so that men would know and follow them.

These Laws are valid in all of creation, in all planes of being. They are eternal and unchangable.
