About this audiobook

Your Forces and How to Use Them gathers Prentice Mulford's influential essays into a sustained manual of mental discipline, spiritual self-culture, and practical metaphysics. Written in a lucid, conversational, aphoristic style, the six-volume complete edition explores such New Thought principles as the creative power of thought, the shaping of character by desire, the cultivation of health, and the ethical use of personal influence. Its literary context lies between nineteenth-century Transcendentalism, self-help writing, and occult metaphysics. Mulford (1834–1891) was an American journalist, humorist, lecturer, and pioneer of the New Thought movement. His varied life—sailing to California during the Gold Rush, writing for newspapers, observing American ambition and restlessness at close range—gave him a practical, worldly foundation for his spiritual philosophy. Unlike purely abstract mystics, Mulford wrote as one who had tested hardship, aspiration, solitude, and reinvention. This complete edition is recommended for readers interested in the genealogy of modern self-development, positive thinking, and mind-power literature. Scholars of American spirituality will find it a key primary text, while general readers may value its earnest insistence that inner habits shape outward life.
