The Truths Hidden in the Fairy Tales

For the initial idea covered in this post I credit David Maestas. He is a regular poster on the official Secret forums and has great ideas that he shares with everyone.

Consider this quote form Rhonda Bryne, the creater of The Secret:

"The greatest teachers and Avatars have shared the creative process through their wondrous work, in a myriad of forms. Some great teachers created stories to demonstrate how the universe works. The wisdom of their stories has been handed down through the centuries and has become legendary. Many people living today do not realize that the essence of these stories is the very truth of life."

Just like the story of Aladdin shared in the movie. Isn't it just like our lack an limitation society, that the story was changed over time to allow for only three wishes; when originally the wishes were unlimited? For someone who understands the Law of Attraction and lives in the "magic of life", the wishes truly are unlimited.

More than just a process of understanding, it is really a matter of remembering. We sometimes think in terms of education, meaning that we learn something that we did not previously know. However if you trace the word back you will find that it comes from the Latin word Educo. The word Educo means to "bring out from within", or "to remember".

As the poet Wordsworth once wrote: Our birth is but a sleep, and a forgetting.

To find the magic of life we must remember.

The poet continues:

The Soul that rises with us, our life's Star,
Hath had elsewhere its setting, And cometh from afar:
Not in entire forgetfulness, And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory do we come
From God, who is our home.

You see, the reason that it is a remembering is because . . . .

We knew it all before!

And we are meant to find it all again. And we will.
