Once upon a time, Esther was led around by Jerry, the charismatic star of the show. But when fame and fortune came knocking, the transition to a new, glitzier version of Esther was inevitable.
Standing Ovations and Shoved-Aside Stars
During a previous transition, the original Abraham was pushed aside as Esther basked in the limelight. The tables turned, and now Esther was the main attraction. But was she up to the task?

Esther’s newfound freedom led to some eyebrow-raising moments. From comparing a child to Jesus for not sharing toys to justifying kicking cats as a way of learning, Esther’s teachings took a bizarre turn.

As if things weren’t weird enough, Esther decided to crack down on copyright infringements and even sued her own followers. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any stranger, Jerry Hicks made a surprise comeback, cracking jokes from beyond the grave.
The Claim to Speak for All
Not content with speaking for the mysterious Abraham, Esther started claiming to represent God, Jesus, and Buddha. Talk about raising the stakes!
Can Esther Hicks be Trusted?
As the Abraham-Hicks 2.0 saga continues, it’s clear that things have taken a turn toward cult-like devotion. With her claims to channel the divine and her outlandish teachings, Esther’s credibility is in question.

A lot of people have been talking about Esther Hicks and the Law of Attraction lately. But what is the real story? Is she a fraud, or is she onto something? Let’s take a closer
You don't fully understand Abraham's teachings if you question Esther's sincerity.
Robert, you're one among many who claim that skeptics just don't understand. Maybe, we're just not as gullible and eager to believe without discretion.
well said, I always thought this cannot be real, if it is, why can't we all just talk to Abraham just like she does? and sometimes she never answered the question, but was talking about a hundred other things. I doubt this is real, it was just a great way to make a lot of money!
Right, Andrew. It was pretty calculated to get them back into the money after Jerry was impoverished by the breakup of his fourth marriage. When Abraham arrived, they were living in a rental apartment in Fresno. Twenty-five years later…
I wonder what Esther is doing now, I'm not really interested but the guy who knew the business was Jerry. I read Napoleon Hill's book, and I like the idea a lot that you can attract wealth and money, but I don't think you should make up a \”group\” like Abraham, that nobody but Esther has access to. I read 2 of their books but it's just like their shows, a lot of blabla around a topic but never a real solution.
Andrew, Esther has resumed weekly workshops, traveling around and she has added Jerry to those she claims to channel. He has imparted any wisdom yet, but has the role of a merry quipster. I covered this on Abraham-Hicks: The Sequel. Attendance is way down and she's pulling a team of factotums behind her. Some are betting she'll be out of the game within a year. It's that boring, but she's pretty savvy at this game, although she was never the smart one of the pair. I agree with you on the invention of Abraham as a sales gimmick. They wouldn't have gone anywhere without it, but one of the worst effects was in trivializing and retooling what are some pretty good sources of insight and wisdom. It discredits those who really tried to understand and teach, not just sell what Kyra calls \”used wisdom.\”
now that made me laugh, of course no show without Jerry, dead or alive – she should stop now, before people really see that she's making things up. There are plenty of \”real\” mediums, with the ability to channel, and of course only she has the ability to channel him. Used wisdom that's what it's all about. Anyone could make up something just teach something that's already been teached. It's just sad that so many people still believe in what she is saying. I watched so many videos of her now, she really never answered a question. One is asking about this and that and she is giving examples of something that has nothing to do with it OR as usual she tells a story about her and Jerry. In other words *hehe* she should stop and enjoy the rest of her life and money.
She probably had some ideas about doing that, Andrew, but she's being pushed by the whole entourage that depends financially on the workshops, cruises, merchandise, etc.But I think the ship is sinking fast enough that it won't float a whole lot longer.
I was an Abraham follower, and I learned that all following is blind. I opened my eyes and started questioning things about her and the channeling process. Besides her lack of ability to answer a question straight to the point. If you are claiming that you channel \”Infinite Intelligence\” and somebody asks about the String Theory and you don't have a clue…well, you are a scam, as simple as that. I have a bunch of DVD's from them I've been trying to sell but nobody wants them! I guess they will remind me how blind I was…
Congratulations on getting out, Luz.
Without trying to be as blatantly obvious as Esther Hicks, I took the time to write a comprehensive book explaining why the \”law\” of attraction is a complete fabrication, largely using its own source documents as proof, such as WIlliam Atkinsons 1906 work. The \”it's just like gravity\” mantra parroted by the LoA bobbleheads? This comes from Atkinson. In fact, this magical law organizes, according to Atkinson not only gravity, but electromagnetism, electron spin, adhesion, cohesion, all force, and all motion in the universe. His proof? Because he says \”suppose.\” Not one mathematical equation, not one piece of physical evidence. The title is The Principle by True Indigo and is available on Amazon. I have made a public offer of $1,000,000 to anyone – anyone – anywhere – who can provide proof that this magical \”law\” which has never once been demonstrated or been documented exists. So far, after over a year, no one has \”attracted\” the money. Is this because it doesn't exist?
