Great book by respected author Ernest Holmes

If you have never read Ernest Holmes before, this is a great book to start with. It is simple to read, yet it conveys Ernest Holmes' wisdoms at the core, and directly. Ernest Holmes will tell you about the concept of Divine Mind, Spiritual Supply, Mental Laws, and why our thoughts create our experience. The first time I read his concept of "Entering The Absolute", it really opened up a new way of thinking for me. He says that to enter the absolute means, be able to think independently of any existing circumstances or problems. Meaning, if you have any problem or situation which you wish to solve or get out from, the only way to get out from it is to spend your focus mainly on what you really want - which is the solution/answer. If you are poor, you have to think thoughts of wealth,abundance and success, to dwell on the "Infinite Supply" and never on the present circumstances. Many other authors have written about true stories where people have gotten themself out of their situation of lack, by daily thinking and feeling about what they truly desire. I recently read that the author Anthony Robbins, many years ago when he was broke, he set such big 'impossible' goals for himself such as owning a huge castle to live in, a limosine, being a multi-millionaire and being the successful person he desired to be. And he mentally rehearsed each goal everyday, as if its already achieved, that within JUST ONE YEAR he achieved all of his goals above! The castle, the limo, the wealth and life he dwelled on everyday!For those who are interested in this topic, you may want to read "As A Man Thinketh" by James Allen. However, I still think this book is the best. If you are interested in Ernest Holmes, I recommend his other books such as "This Thing Called YOU", "Love And Law", "The Essential Ernest Holmes".

A Great Way to Know God

Ernest Holmes has done a supurb job of summarizing his text book "The Science of Mind." It is very easy reading and gives a birds eye view of Science of Mind. He correlates nicely science and religion. Science of Mind is a marvelous way of finding ones Soul. Understanding how Science and Religion compliment each other is very stimulating. The ease of reading really makes the difference. The text "Science of Mind" does have some words and language that requires some serious definition review. The Basic Ideas of Science of Mind is written in such clear and concise wordage and is so powerful that it was hard to put down once I started reading it. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in finding God in some other way than traditional religion. This book is a fascinating way to start your journey.
