Synopsis

Before "New Age" there was "New Thought," a philosophy that sought God through metaphysics and was wildly popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. American mystic and bestselling author RALPH WALDO TRINE (1866-1958) was one of the most influential writers on New Thought principles, and here, in this 1913 work, he calls for a return to true spirituality in what we today call "religion." Trine discusses: . how Jesus' reliance on his own intuition-not the teachings of authority-was his great strength . how his simplicity fortified his moral power . how the Church's later emphasis on ritual over spirituality subverted its own mission . how to reclaim the message of Jesus for the modern world . and more. Trine's approach, humanistic and liberal, will speak eloquently to anyone disgruntled with organized religion but still seeking spiritual solace.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The interest of thinking men and women the world over is being directed toward, is being focused upon, we might almost say, a very definite and a very significant field of thought. Life, life and the things that pertain most directly to it are, after all, they are finding, the things that really count. There is a Religious, a Philosophical, and a Political Renaissance, so to speak, that has come into being among us. It is unquestionably of a very definite and clear-cut nature. It is more far-reaching in its scope and its influence than the Renaissance of history, in that it is practically world-wide in its inclusiveness. There are new laws and forces that we are coming into the knowledge of, that are changing the very foundations of life, and that are leading, for many, to a more effective, a saner, a sweeter, and a more light-hearted way of living.
