One of a kind book, October 3, 2009
This review is from: Life and the Doctrines of Philippus Theophrastus Bombast of Hohenheim Known as Paracelsus (Paperback)
The content in this book can't be found anywhere else. I even tried locating the original and it is difficult. Paracelsus reveals the power of faith, magic and many other things. What I liked is that he says how God gives man Faith only when he doesn't doubt, doesn't consider other things and holds only one object in view. A magical recipe for success! Napoleon Hill and others refer to the subconscious mind when they are actually referring to God, as far as Paracelsus puts it.
I hope one day all his other works will see the light of day in the English world. The classics have a depth that modern-day authors are lacking.
