Spiritual Corruption is Bad for Your Health

The truth always stings when it speaks directly to your experience. And at the risk of being unpopular—yet again—I have to say this: the sale of any manifestation process is an absurd illusion.

How do businesses openly flout the law, engage in false advertising, and still get away with it? There is growing evidence that their claims are entirely untrue, 100% false, in fact. Yet, as far as I’m aware, not one business has been sued. Not yet.

Some of the world’s most celebrated manifestation experts have died from terminal, incurable cancer. The Law of Attraction and A Course in Miracles did nothing to change their fate. Their health deteriorated, their lives ended, and their painful deaths were surely not part of their desires.

Did they manifest their suffering? Of course not. Did they manifest long, healthy lives? Apparently not. And so, I ask: why?

If these so-called masters of manifestation truly had control over the forces they claimed to harness, why did they fail to manifest their own well-being? They spent years telling their followers, through advertisements, books, services, and endless promises, that their techniques would allow anyone to be, do, and have anything they desired.

Where, then, was their immunity? Their longevity? Their proof?

It’s an industry of false hope. I have warned about the outrageous claims made in manifestation marketing before. You cannot get away with this kind of unlawful deception in Australia. And yet, the manifestation industry continues, unchecked: its physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual exploitation allowed to persist.

When you buy a manifestation process, you receive no warranty. No guarantee. Because they cannot, under any circumstances, assure you that it will work. But they will sell it to you anyway.

Even a $15 toaster comes with a 12-month, money-back guarantee. Yet somehow, manifestation remains an industry with a free pass, selling costly processes to vulnerable, unwitting customers with no proof that they work.

There are countless reasons why manifestation often fails to work, but one stands out above all:

Your manifestation does not exist in isolation. It spills into the entirety of creation, affecting everyone. The fulfillment of your desires is not solely about you; it influences collective destiny. If the realisation of your manifestation would adversely impact even one other person’s fate, it will not unfold as you wish.

This truth alone dismantles the fantasy of effortless manifestation.

Spiritual corruption. False promises. To sell false hope to the poor, the sick, the dying, and the deeply unhappy is an abuse of spiritual power. And yet, this is precisely the type of behavior expected from the spiritually corrupt.

I am astonished that this business model remains legal. I am shocked to see companies willingly affiliating with these fraudsters. And I am dismayed by their audacity, not only to sell deception, but to brag about it.

One day in Chicago, at her kitchen table, Dolores Myss, mother of Caroline and always in my heart, shared a truth with me:

“You know what makes God laugh, Gail? Tell Him your plans.”

Can destiny be manipulated? Can you change what is written? Either way, what you can change is your perspective on it. Some people, places, objects, and events in life are not meant to be controlled, no matter what the ego believes it can do.
