Spiritual Awareness...a good read!
Published by Bookworm , 5 months ago
I love Ernest Holmes and his approach to explaining spiritual awareness. I would highly recommend this book for anyone seeking a keen inner life to an empowered external life.
Most Important Book You'll Ever Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Earnest Holmes has written a brief, clear explanation of our place in the universe. You can spend 15 or 20 years going to workshops, psychoanalysis, aromatherapy, psycho-kinesiology, acupuncture, energy-work, etc. etc. OR you can read this slim volume and spend a life of profound joy understanding you own divinity.
A book that will put UNSHAKABLE FAITH in you!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I just bought this book last year (1999) and its one of my fave already. Ernest Holmes is also the author of the popular book Science Of Mind. Frankly, his approach to Life is very wise and spiritual. His interpretation of spiritual texts like the Indian Gita, the Upanishad, the Bible etc, are truly practical and very wise. He knows how the mind works. He knows how spiritual healing works. He sometimes uses metaphors on how the mind works, and great metaphors they are! My favourite is his metaphor of 'the law of mind is like the law of gravity. Put a furniture over here, and gravity will hold it there. Think a thought and the law of mind will manifest it according to your thought". Read this book and he can put in you a faith in yourself or God so strong that it's unshakable.
You have discovered the spiritual universe ...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Ernest Holmes wrote this incredible gem in 1948. I think my favorite passage is: "You have discovered the spiritual universe. Many others have discovered this same world, but each must make the discovery for himself. You are going to have a lot of joy sailing around this world of yours. Don't fight the opinions of others, or waste your time arguing over these things. Follow the inward gleam of your consciousness and you will arrive." (30) Knowing that we each seek the joy of living, Dr. Holmes speaks to us of: Omnipresence (34), Faith (18), Garden of Eden (38), Divine Guidance (63), Pure Intuition (101), Stop looking for an authority outside your own conviction (43), and Live in a state of expectancy (67). He gives us life changing inspiration and affirmations. Ernest Holmes founded the Science of Mind Movement aka Religious Science and wrote the revered textbook Science of Mind.
Empowering, inspiring, leaves you feeling extraordinary
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I originally read this book upon recommendation. It has since become one of my favorites. I have read it a full two times and refer to portions of it often. This book is practical. It uses examples from nature to help the reader understand their own unique purpose in this world. This book is a self-esteem book that was written before self-esteem became fashionable. One of Ernest Holmes best books.
