I have been keeping tabs on the trial of James Arthur Ray, the self-proclaimed self-help, self-serving guru featured in the movie, The Secret. Mr. Ray was convicted for the reckless homicide involving the deaths of James Shore, Liz Neuman and Kirby Brown.
James Ray claimed that his "success formula" was superior to any other program because he understood the harmonic pillars of success. Now, Mr. Ray is learning about the four pillars of the justice system. I call them harmonic, well, because James Ray didn't get the trademark on the word "harmonic" and I like the word. So the harmonic pillars of justice are, 1) Law Enforcement, 2) Courts, 3) correctional system and 4) the community.
James Ray dangerously believed his harmonic pillars of wealth were outside the pillars of justice. He brazenly thought he could do anything without the fear of consequences.
Next week, James Ray will finish his romp in the courts' harmonic pillar of justice and then he is on to what I hope is the fully harmonic role of the correctional system. A few good harmonic years in jail will be good for Mr. Ray. The Guards, like good coaches, can tell James Ray that he just has to suck it up and pee-pee in his little cell.
