Newsletter Awakening Humanity to Its Spiritual Magnificence Newsletter Awakening Humanity To Its Spiritual Magnificence A spiritual community that honors all paths to God January - February 2011 Rooted in Spirit: Growing in Faith…Growing in Love Every January, Religious Science ministers around the world choose as the focus of their Sunday lessons the opening four chapters of the Science of Mind textbook. Those four chapters contain the essential ideas Dr. Holmes spoke of and taught in the early years of his ministry, and which formed the foundation for the balance of the textbook. This “back to basics” tradition is intended to reinforce the beliefs and understanding already instilled in a congregation, and set a strong footing upon which the minister can build and expand the year’s lessons, drawing on and tying back to the essential ideas of the teaching – the roots from which Religious Science has grown. For the year 2011, our Center’s January lessons begin with the “back to basics” theme, focused on those first four chapters. Remembering that all creation is “Rooted in Spirit”, we have set an intention this year to grow in all the aspects and qualities of Spirit, building on the foundation laid this first month of the year. We begin with the intention to grow in Faith, “…the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Basic to our teaching is faith – faith in the power of Principle that responds to us perfectly, creating through us according to our belief and acceptance. From there, we move on in our intention to grow in Love, the word Emerson uses as a synonym for God. All creation is born of Love, and we set an intention to deepen our experience of and our ability to love, and to create magnificence out of that love. Beginning again, and going back to our roots – we can draw on the Source within us to guide us, and support us in our intention. We look forward to sharing this time of growth with you.

  • Your Invisible Power
    Your Invisible Power Genevieve Behrend ABOUT THE AUTHOR Genevieve Behrend was the only personal student of Thomas Troward the master of "Mental Science." "Your Invisible Power" is a powerful, yet simple and easy guide. This book can teach you how to use the power of visualization and other processes taught by Thomas Troward to transform your life. Behrend says, "We all possess more power and greater possibilities than we realize, and visualizing is one of the greatest of these powers. It brings other possibilities to our observation. When we pause to think for a moment, we realize that for a cosmos to exist at all, it must be the outcome of a cosmic mind." From 1912 to 1914, Genevieve Behrend’s life focused solely on the wisdom and philosophy of Thomas Troward (1847- 1916) who’s influential and compelling ideas provided much of the groundwork to the spiritual philosophy known today as New Thought. As the awareness of “mental science” was taking shape, Troward imparted his personal insight to only one pupil who could perpetuate this knowledge and share it with the world. YOUR INVISIBLE POWER remains Behrend's most powerful and popular work. After her studies with Troward, Behrend began her mission in New York City where she established and ran The School of the Builders until 1925. She then established another school in Los Angeles before touring other major cities throughout North America for the next 35 years as a celebrated lecturer, teacher, and practitioner of "Mental Science". 2 Your Invisible Power A Presentation of the Mental Science of Judge Thomas Troward By GENEVIEVE BEHREND Originally Published in 1921 by THE ELIZABETH TOWNE CO.

  • Ernest Holmes and Science of Mind
    Ernest Holmes and Science of Mind Ernest Holmes Dr. Holmes (January 21, 1887 – April 7, 1960) was the founder of Religious Science. His work in the Science of Mind is recognized today as one of the leading viewpoints in modern metaphysics and New Thought. Dr. Holmes developed a universal philosophy and tools for spiritual living that profoundly resonate to this day. His work provides us with a personal spiritual path, an understanding of our relationship with the Universe, and a connected and joyful approach to daily living. Dr. Holmes wrote his seminal book The Science of Mind in 1926 and revised the text in 1938 to create an edition that has since been published in several languages. Dr. Holmes is also the author of numerous other books on metaphysics and originated the international Science of Mind magazine, which has been in continuous publication since 1927. Born in Maine, Holmes was largely self-taught, seeking out the writings of Ralph Waldo Em- erson, Christian D. Larson, Thomas Troward and Phineas Quimby. Holmes moved to Southern California in 1914. He founded the Institute of Religious Science, which became United Church of Religious Science in 1953, and is now United Centers for Spiritual Living. Holmes inspired the “positive thinking” of Norman Vincent Peale, Peggy Lee, Cary Grant, Cecil B. DeMille and countless others without ever intending to create a religion or a follow- ing of masses of people. Science of Mind Science of Mind presents a message of hope, help, and inspiration, for its practice and use extends into every form of human experience.

Ourselves in the Divine Offering Selected Bibliography About the Authors ____ ╬ ╬ ╬ ╬ ____ INTRODUCTION (Jonathan Star) In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in the ideas and principles of the creative power of thought and, in particular, in the ‘Law of Attraction’—a universal principle that was articulated over 100 years ago in the field of mental science called, ‘New Thought.’ The ‘Law of At- traction,’ or the new buzzword, ‘The Secret,’ points to the universal principle that ‘like attracts like’—and if we hold to the principle that our thoughts are creative, then the wise application of the Law of Attraction would be to think about what you want (the positive) and not about what you don’t want (the negative). That’s one way a person can con- sciously work with this law. However, the mainstay of what we attract corresponds to what we hold to be true, and how we truly feel about ourselves. So changing our thoughts, thinking about the positive (and not the negative), is a sur- face approach which has some positive effect but it does not get to the root of the issue—which the concepts we hold about ourselves, our place in the world, and our relationship to Universal Spirit.
