The Science of Mind (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. A Philosophy, A Faith, A Way of Life – The Core of Religious ScienceBy Ernest Holmes
Length12h 46m
About this audiobook
The Science of Mind is Ernest Holmes's foundational exposition of Religious Science, a metaphysical system that joins Christian idealism, New Thought, Transcendentalist intuition, and practical psychology into a disciplined philosophy of spiritual causation. Written in a lucid, sermonic, and aphoristic style, the book argues that thought participates in a universal Creative Mind and that prayer, rightly understood, is a method of aligning consciousness with spiritual law. Its literary context belongs to the early twentieth-century flowering of American metaphysical religion, alongside works by Ralph Waldo Trine, Emma Curtis Hopkins, and Thomas Troward. Ernest Holmes, born in 1887 in Maine, was a self-educated religious thinker whose wide reading in philosophy, scripture, mysticism, and mental healing shaped his synthesis. His encounters with New Thought teachers and his pastoral work in Los Angeles led him to formulate a teaching that sought to be both spiritually universal and practically transformative. The Science of Mind reflects his desire to reconcile faith, reason, and lived experience. Readers interested in American religious innovation, metaphysical spirituality, or the history of positive thinking will find this book indispensable. It rewards reflective reading and remains a central text for understanding modern mind-cure traditions.
