Beschreibung

"As a Man Thinketh" presents the power of thought, and particularly the use and application of thought to achieve happiness, personal goals and defeat our deepest issues. The book is simple, so that all can easily grasp and follow its teaching, and put into practice the methods which it advises. It shows how, in its own thought-world, every person holds the key to every condition, good or bad, that enters into their life, and that, by working patiently and intelligently upon their thoughts, they can remake their life, and transform their circumstances. This edition also includes the sequel to this famous book, "Out from the Heart."

Foreword

Table of Contents

This little volume (the result of meditation and experience) is not intended as an exhaustive treatise on the much-written-upon subject of the power of thought. It is suggestive rather than explanatory, its object being to stimulate men and women to the discovery and perception of the truth that—

"They themselves are makers of themselves."

by virtue of the thoughts, which they choose and encourage; that mind is the master-weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance, and that, as they may have hitherto woven in ignorance and pain they may now weave in enlightenment and happiness.

Thought and Character

Table of Contents

The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of thought, and could not have appeared without them. This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those, which are deliberately executed.

Act is the blossom of thought, and joy and suffering are its fruits; thus does a man garner in the sweet and bitter fruitage of his own husbandry.

"Thought in the mind hath made us, What we are By thought was wrought and built. If a man's mind Hath evil thoughts, pain comes on him as comes The wheel the ox behind....

..If one endure In purity of thought, joy follows him As his own shadow—sure."
