Creative Mind & Success (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. Practical and Philosophical Guide to Mental WellnessBy Ernest HolmesLength3h 26m
About this audiobook
Creative Mind & Success presents Ernest Holmes's early formulation of the principles that would become central to Religious Science: the disciplined use of thought, belief, and spiritual law to shape outward circumstance. Written in lucid, aphoristic prose, the book blends metaphysical instruction with practical self-culture, standing within the New Thought tradition alongside works by Ralph Waldo Trine, Emma Curtis Hopkins, and Thomas Troward. Its style is direct yet contemplative, urging readers to regard mind not as passive reflection but as a creative agency. Holmes, an American spiritual teacher and founder of the Science of Mind movement, wrote from a background steeped in Transcendentalism, Christian mysticism, mental science, and comparative religion. His interest in healing, prosperity, and personal transformation emerged from the early twentieth-century milieu in which psychology, spirituality, and self-help increasingly converged. Creative Mind & Success reflects his conviction that universal spiritual principles could be stated rationally and applied methodically in ordinary life. This book is recommended for readers interested in the intellectual roots of modern self-development, prosperity teaching, and affirmative spirituality. Though brief, it rewards careful reading, especially for those seeking a historically significant, spiritually optimistic account of success as an inwardly generated condition.
