A Modern Look at Florence Scovel Shinn's Your Word Is Your Wand: With Commentary By Joseph Lumpkin &

As we speak, we influence everyone in our sphere, including ourselves. As we speak, we program our expectations, and we also begin the cycle of manifesting our will. Through our words we broadcast our intentions into the universe, and the universe is always listening. Your Word is Your Wand. Through our words, our will gives birth to possibilities and conditions in life. This is the philosophy and belief of the New Thought Movement. In the 19th century, a school of thought and philosophy arose in the United States that was so powerful it changed the landscapes of religion, health and prosperity. The effects of the New Thought movement continue today and can be seen in how we now view our relationship with God, the universe, and ourselves. The New Thought movement has been termed a spiritual or metaphysical movement and a philosophical movement. It is the science of the mind teaching us how to use, will power, intent, affirmations, and visualization in order to manifest our visions in our lives today. Shinn teaches us why some people are successful, some have their prayers answered, and why some fail. She teaches us the techniques we need to be successful and discusses how we can bring our visions and prayers into existence so we may live a life in a state of health and prosperity.

A Modern Look at Florence Scovel Shinn's The Power of the Spoken Word: With Commentary by Joseph Lum

In the 19th century, a school of thought and philosophy arose in the United States that was so powerful it changed the landscapes of religion, health and prosperity. The effects of the New Thought movement continue today and can be seen in how we now view our relationship with God, the universe, and ourselves. The New Thought movement has been termed a spiritual or metaphysical movement and a philosophical movement. It is the science of the mind teaching us how to use, will power, intent, affirmations, and visualization in order to manifest our visions in our lives today. Florence Scovel Shinn was a major influence and teacher in the New Thought movement. Shinn writes, 'A successful man is always asked--'What is the secret of your success?' People never ask a man who is a failure, 'What is the secret of your failure?' It is quite easy to see, and they are not interested. People all want to know how to open the secret door of success.' Shinn teaches us how the Power of the Spoken Word recreates our minds and thus our ability to manifest our thoughts in the world. What if we could speak the correct words in the correct way to reprogram our mind and will? What if we could use our focused mind and intention to bring about situations and conditions that lead to health and prosperity? The Power of the Spoken Word is the tool to bring your wishes into existence.

The Gateless Gate: Sacred Writings of Zen Buddhism

Several schools of Zen developed in China in the 9th century. The Rinzai (Chinese, Lin-chi) sect of Zen was introduced to Japan by the Chinese priest Ensai in 1191. Rinzai Buddhism emphasizes the use of koans, paradoxical puzzles or questions that help the practitioner to overcome the normal boundaries of logic. Koans are often accompanied by shouts or slaps from the master, intended to provoke anxiety, leading to instant realization of the truth. These teachings influenced the warrior class and led to a Zen influence over the martial arts of archery and swordsmanship. Soto Buddhism (Chinese, Ts'ao-tung) is another Zen sect that was transmitted from China to Japan. It arrived in Japan in 1227 upon the teacher Dogen's return from China. Soto emphasizes zazen, or sitting meditation, as the means to attain enlightenment. The Soto practitioner is encouraged to clear the mind of all thoughts and concepts, without making any effort towards enlightenment, until enlightenment occurs. Whatever the method of reaching enlightenment, once reached we realize the state of enlightenment we sought was there within us all along. The method is the gate, but there need not be any gate, since the gate is always open. This is the gateless gate. Now, let us enter the Gateless Gate.

The Tao Te Ching

The Tao Te Ching was written by a man referred to as Lao Tzu. The unknown author’s name means both 'the old philosopher' and 'the old philosophy.' Hence Lao Tzu may also be the title for the book or the name or title of the author. Lao Tzu lived in ancient China and was the keeper of the Imperial Library. Legends tell us he was famous for his wisdom. He was an advocate for personal inner growth, moral government, and the rights of the people. Perceiving the growing corruption of the government, he left for the countryside. On his way, the guard at the city gates asked Lao Tzu to write out his teachings for the benefit of future generations. Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching, and was never heard of again. The Tao Te Ching is the fundamental text of Taoism. The practice of Taoism is principally concerned with discovering balance and self-knowledge. All things, actions, and even intents, are broken into positive and negative, or masculine and feminine influences. Taoism advocates learning to sense the world directly, to “intuit” the flow of things, and to maintain a balance of opposing forces. In doing so, one must contemplate impressions deeply as one attempts to become detached, without resorting to coloring intuitive impressions with personal expectations. Taoism advises against relying on ideologies, because to do so will rob one’s life of its meaning and personal intuition. By developing intuition, one acquires a deeper understanding of the world, one’s place, and the future. The Tao Te Ching, as it exists today, consists of 81 short chapters among which 37 form the first part, the Book of the Way (Tao), and the next 44 form the Book of Te. Its division into chapters is considered to be the result of the remarks of Heschang Gong (Han dynasty). Other traditional interpretations conclude the name may be 'The Book of the Way of Virtue” or “The Book of Flow and Harmony.'

The Lost Scriptures and Divergent Doctrine: Lost Books of the Bible and Lost Doctrines of the Fai

Many times our search for deeper understanding of the Bible leads to questions beyond the Bible itself. As we encounter references to social conditions, cultural practices, and even other writings mentioned within the scriptures we are called to investigate and expand our knowledge in order to fully appreciate the context, knowledge base, and cultural significance of what is being taught. Canonical Gospels quote other books not contained in the Bible. The Bible warns against heretical teachings without explaining what they are. Without insight into the books being quoted or the heretical teachings being sighted, the quotes and the reproofs mean nothing. Thus, to fully understand the Bible and the faith we are necessarily drawn to sources outside the Bible. These sources add to the historical, social, or theological understanding of Biblical and its people. In that time when the faith and doctrine of modern Judaism and Christianity were being forged, these books were being read and believed. Contained in this single volume are the following texts: Section One: Lost Scriptures of the Old Testament Enoch Jubilees Jasher Section Two: Apocalyptic Writings and the End of Days Apocalypse of Abraham Apocalypse of Thomas 4 Ezra 2 Baruch Section Three: Lost Scriptures of the New Testament Gospel of Philip Gospel of Mary Magdalene Apocryphon of John Gospel of Thomas
