    About this ebook

    James Allen's best known work, “As a Man Thinketh” is a vintage self-help book first published in 1903. Based on the bible verse “As man thinketh, so he is”, Allen's influential book centres around the idea that within every person is the power to form their own character and to create their own happiness. “As a Man Thinketh” has helped millions of people understand the power of thought to improve their life and increase happiness, as it undoubtedly will for generations to come. Contents include: “Thought and Character”, “Effect of Thought on Circumstances”, “Effect of Thought on Health and the Body”, “Thought and Purpose”, “The Thought-factor in Achievement”, “Visions and Ideals”, and “Serenity”. James Allen (1864–1912) was a British writer most famous for his inspirational poetry and being an early leader of the self-help movement. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay by Henry Thomas Hamblin.

      An Excerpt From Within You Is The Power

      By Henry Thomas Hamblin

      We have already seen that the sub-conscious mind, wonderful though it be, is instinctive merely, lacking inspiration and what we call originality. All inspiration comes from the Universal Mind, via the super-conscious. All poets and inspired writers get their inspiration in this way.

      This higher mind is not recognized by Psychologists, but it has long been known to searchers for spiritual truth.

      What we get from the sub-conscious is the outcome of facts and knowledge supplied to it. What we get from the super-conscious is direct inspiration from higher planes. This higher mind might also be called the Mind of Illumination, for those who can enter into it become illumined, being able to know the Truth and to see things as they really are, and not as they falsely appear to the senses.

      This limited consciousness in which we live is bounded by our five senses. The universe that we see around us is partly real and partly an illusion. The real universe is Spiritual and infinite: what we sense is a limited, partial conception of a fragment of it. Our limited, finite conception of the universe is entirely misleading and erroneous, and so long as we rely on sense evidence and the human
