The original guide to manifesting! The full original text, revised for the 21st century!

In this timeless classic, William Walker Atkinson introduces the paradigm shifting concept of The Law of Attraction. This one great law governs the universe and the world we experience. It simply states that whatever the focus of our thoughts and expectations--whatever we desire or fear--is exactly what we receive. In The Law of Attraction Atkinson shows readers how to harness this radical power to create a life of abundance and happiness.

The simple choice to replace a negative thought with a positive one is a small thing, but it can be the beginning of a new life, new freedom, and new abundance.

Long before others were writing on the subject, Atkinson was the first to develop a complete understanding of the Law of Attraction. First published under the title Thought Vibration, this new edition of the book has been fully revised and updated for modern readers. Rediscover Atkinson's pioneering insights in The Law of Attraction and transform your life!

William Walker Atkinson, an attorney by trade, explains different kinds of logic and reasoning - deductive, inductive and hypothetical.

The author begins by describing how the mind forms ideas and concepts, and then subjects these to the mental processes of higher reasoning. The memory stores a repository of terms, which are different from concepts in that they apply exclusively to the name of things. Through reasoning the mind can arrive at a judgment of a given thing or idea, and through simple distinction can reject what is false - for instance, the notion that a horse is a cow.

Moving on from these simple examples, Atkinson describes how complex judgments and analyses are formed by the mind. Piecing together an accurate chain of events forms a kind of inductive reasoning - for example, if several people enters a store empty-handed, and later emerge with bags of fruit and vegetables, is it sensible to infer that it is a grocery store. Deriving conclusions from facts and events is forming a hypothesis; with the use of information, assertions can be made to arrive at a sensible conclusion - without personally entering said store, based on known facts it is credible to hypothesize that it sells groceries.

Human Nature is a term most frequently used and yet little understood. The average person knows in a general way what is meant by it but very few are able to give an off-hand definition of the term or to state what in their opinion constitutes the real essence of the thought expressed by this familiar phrase. Human Nature means the nature of man or mankind. Nature, in this usage, means: The natural disposition of mind of any person; temper; personal character; individual constitution; the peculiar mental characteristics and attributes which serve to distinguish one person from another. Thus we see that the essence of the nature of mankind, or of a particular human being, is the mind, the mental qualities, characteristics, properties and attributes. Human Nature is then a phase of psychology and subject to the laws, principles and methods of study, examination and consideration of that particular branch of science. Human Nature expresses itself in two general phases: the phase of Inner States; and the phase of Outer Forms. These two phases, however, are not separate or opposed to each other, but are complementary aspects of the same thing. There is always an action and reaction between the Inner State and the Outer Form-between the Inner Feeling and the Outer Expression. If we know the particular Inner State we may infer the appropriate Outer Form; and if we know the Outer Form we may infer the Inner State. These two elements or phases, in their constant action and reaction, manifest the phenomena of Human Nature, and a knowledge of each, and both give to us the key which will open for us the door of the understanding of Human Nature. This is what this book is concerned with teaching you. The ability to read Human Nature puts you in a position of power.

The New Thought movement of the early 20th century vehemently believed in the concept of mind over matter, and one of the most influential thinkers of this early New Age philosophy promises to show you how to harness the extraordinary mental powers you already possess.

Does the soul survive death? Are we reborn again and again, and can we access the knowledge and the memories acquired in earlier lives? Followers of New Thought, the early-20th-century New Age philosophy, believed so, and here, in this 1908 book, William Walker Atkinson, one of the most influential New Thought voices, explores the concept of reincarnation throughout history, from the Egyptian idea of the soul through Plato's teachings on the subject and on to modern spiritual outlooks on eternal life. With arguments and proofs supporting the idea that the soul is a traveler on a long journey, this is a fascinating look at a question that has haunted humanity since antiquity. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today, including Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont.

This beautiful hardback edition presents William Walker Atkinson's Atkinson's classic work, Reincarnation and the Law of Karma, presented with a gold embossed cover design and gilded page edges.

Reincarnation is the process of the soul's successive rebirths, and, in this book, Atkinson explores how past lives influence and shape our present existence. He examines the idea that our actions in previous lives determine our current circumstances, highlighting the karmic implications and the continuity of the soul's journey through multiple lifetimes.

Using explanations from ancient writings and practical insights of his own, Atkinson invites contemplation on personal responsibility, moral choices, and the pursuit of spiritual growth. Irrespective of one's beliefs, Reincarnation and the Law of Karma fosters a deeper understanding of how different faiths see the profound connection between one's actions and how they manifest in our past, present, and future lives.

This elegant pocket-sized gift edition contains the classic text, presented with a gold embossed cover design, ivory pages, beautifully designed endpapers and gold gilded page edges.

William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of the New Thought movement. He is also known to have been the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka. Excerpt: We all know that in order to accomplish a certain thing we must concentrate. It is of the utmost value to learn how to concentrate. To make a success of anything you must be able to concentrate your entire thought upon the idea you are working out. Do not become discouraged, if you are unable to hold your thought on the subject very long at first. There are very few that can. It seems a peculiar fact that it is easier to concentrate on something that is not good for us, than on something that is beneficial. This tendency is overcome when we learn to concentrate consciously. If you will just practice a few concentration exercises each day you will find you will soon develop this wonderful power.

by William Walker Atkinson

In this New Thought classic, Atkinson looks at the law of attraction in the thought world. He points out the similarities between the law of gravitation and the mental law of attraction.

William Walker Atkinson was an influential member of the New Thought movement. He was one of the first people to write about the Law of Attraction. Long before Rhonda Byrne discovered the secret that one's positive thoughts are powerful magnets that attract wealth, health, and happiness, Atkinson already knew it.

William Walker Atkinson (December 5, 1862 - November 22, 1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of the New Thought movement. He is also thought to be the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka. He is the author of an estimated 100 books, all written in the last 30 years of his life. He was also mentioned in past editions of Who's Who in America, Religious Leaders of America, and several similar publications. His works have remained in print more or less continuously since 1900. In the 1890s, Atkinson had become interested in Hinduism and after 1900 he devoted a great deal of effort to the diffusion of yoga and Oriental occultism in the West. It is unclear at this late date whether he actually ever converted to any form of Hindu religion, or merely wished to write on the subject. If he did convert, he left no record of the event.

The lessons which compose this volume originally appeared in monthly form, the first of which was issued in October, 1907, and the twelfth in September, 1908. These lessons met with a hearty and generous response from the public, and the present volume is issued in response to the demand for the lessons in a permanent and durable form. There has been no change in the text. Includes a new introduction by Karl Wurf.

William Walker Atkinson was one of the 20th century's most influential writers about New Age and New Thought topics. He also wrote under several pseudonyms to bring Eastern teachings and beliefs to the West.

About the Arcane Formulas: When you feel that there is more to your life than what you currently have, and you are ready to understand the dynamics that silently structures your life - you begin to awaken. There is a higher consciousness from which any answer can be found, any reality achieved. This higher consciousness is not to be identified with your physical body or your personality. This higher consciousness is the I and the WILL, and if used correctly can steer your life in any direction you choose - you need only to focus it. Everyone has a higher consciousness yet only few ever realize it. The correct use of the WILL is not to be controlled by outside forces or the physical world, but to have control over them. This is achievable through the varied states of consciousness that have always been available to you. The 'Arcane Formulas' is a supplementary addition to the 'Arcane Teaching', and includes exercises to achieve a higher consciousness to be used to transmute one mental state into another. Its occult beginnings are not to be confused with witchcraft or any other form of archaic magic, negative or positive. It is simply a Truth, and if used correctly will grant you the key to 'heaven on earth'.
