The inspiration of Ernest Holmes has reached hundreds of thousands of readers through his classic works, many of which are just now becoming available in paperback.

5.0 out of 5 stars You have discovered the spiritual universe ..., January 1, 2000
By "pageh" (CA USA) - See all my reviews
Ernest Holmes wrote this incredible gem in 1948. I think my favorite passage is: "You have discovered the spiritual universe. Many others have discovered this same world, but each must make the discovery for himself. You are going to have a lot of joy sailing around this world of yours. Don't fight the opinions of others, or waste your time arguing over these things. Follow the inward gleam of your consciousness and you will arrive." (30) Knowing that we each seek the joy of living, Dr. Holmes speaks to us of: Omnipresence (34), Faith (18), Garden of Eden (38), Divine Guidance (63), Pure Intuition (101), Stop looking for an authority outside your own conviction (43), and Live in a state of expectancy (67). He gives us life changing inspiration and affirmations. Ernest Holmes founded the Science of Mind Movement aka Religious Science and wrote the revered textbook Science of Mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Empowering, inspiring, leaves you feeling extraordinary, September 2, 1998
I originally read this book upon recommendation. It has since become one of my favorites. I have read it a full two times and refer to portions of it often. This book is practical. It uses examples from nature to help the reader understand their own unique purpose in this world. This book is a self-esteem book that was written before self-esteem became fashionable. One of Ernest Holmes best books.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that will put UNSHAKABLE FAITH in you!, June 7, 2000
By A Customer
I just bought this book last year (1999) and its one of my fave already. Ernest Holmes is also the author of the popular book Science Of Mind. Frankly, his approach to Life is very wise and spiritual. His interpretation of spiritual texts like the Indian Gita, the Upanishad, the Bible etc, are truly practical and very wise. He knows how the mind works. He knows how spiritual healing works. He sometimes uses metaphors on how the mind works, and great metaphors they are! My favourite is his metaphor of 'the law of mind is like the law of gravity. Put a furniture over here, and gravity will hold it there. Think a thought and the law of mind will manifest it according to your thought". Read this book and he can put in you a faith in yourself or God so strong that it's unshakable.
