One of the most popular writers in the fields of inspiration and spirituality at the turn of the 20th century, James Allen set as his life's goal the revelation of universal principles-both spiritual and practical-that empower the individual. With an emphasis on personal responsibility and finding inner power in selflessness and discipline, he here covers, in a book first published in 1907, such topics as the Power of Meditation, Self and Truth, Selfless Love, and the Realization of Perfect Peace. This is truly self-help for the inner self, from a man who believed that we alone can master our own destinies. British author and pop philosopher JAMES ALLEN (1864-1912) retired from the business world to pursue a life of writing and contemplation. Best known for As a Man Thinketh, he authored many other books about the power of thought including The Path to Prosperity, The Mastery of Destiny, and Entering the Kingdom.
