Bøger af William Walker Atkinson

Persönliche Kraft - oder, Ihr Meisterselbst - ist der erste Band der gleichnamigen Buchserie von insgesamt 12 Bänden. Bei diesem ersten Band handelte es sich um das Eingekochte des Eingekochten, des Geheimnisses der Persönlichen Kraft, im Sinne von "Der Fähigkeit oder Stärke des menschlichen Individuums, durch die es die erwünschten Resultate auf effiziente Art und Weise, durch physischen, mentalen und spirituellen Aufwand und Bestreben, erzielen oder erreichen kann." Es ist ein Meisterwerk der beiden Autoren, das keinerlei Dogmatische Behauptungen beinhaltet, sondern den Leser dahinführt sich selber auf praktische Art und Weise von der Richtigkeit der beinhalteten Angaben zu überzeugen. Es führt den Leser dahin, selber zu Denken, zu Fühlen und seine eigene Überzeugungen zu erarbeiten. Er hat in diesem Buch die Anleitung wie er selbst mit eigenem Effort und eigener Erkenntnis zu seinem vollen Potential heranwachsen kann. Er selbst bestimmt die Grenzen. Er wird nie damit fertig werden, weil er im Fortschritt stetig seinen Horizont erweitert und damit eine noch grössere Vielzahl an Möglichkeiten erschliessen wird. Der Autor behauptet mit recht, das der Leser, wenn er die in diesem Buch enthaltene Kenntnisse verinnerlicht "Nie mehr derselbe sein wird".

William Walker Atkinson veröffentlichte unter dem Pseudonym Yogi Ramacharaka in den Jahren 1908/09 A Series Of Lessons On The Inner Teachings Of The Philosophies And Religions Of India.Seine darin enthaltene herausragende Analyse des Buddhismus bringt nicht nur Klarheit in die häufigsten Missverständnisse, denen sowohl einige westliche Übersetzer als auch Zeitgenossen und Nachfolger Gautamas erlegen sind und in weiterer Folge zu vielfältigen Verzerrungen der Philosophie Gautama Buddhas geführt haben, sie lässt uns auch Schritt für Schritt die innersten Beweggründe dieses großen spirituellen Lehrers nachvollziehen und bringt uns die ursprüngliche Botschaft Buddhas in einfachen und verständlichen Worten nahe. Darüber hinaus bezieht hier W. W. Atkinson, dessen eigene philosophische Ausrichtung dem Buddhismus ausgesprochen zugewandt ist, am Ende dieser Abhandlung in ungewohnter Deutlichkeit Position und gibt so dem Leser einen der seltenen Einblicke in seine ganz persönlichen Ansichten zu den großen Fragen der Existenz.

"I wish to invite you to the consideration of a great principle of Nature-a great natural force that manifests its activities in the phenomena of Dynamic Mentation-a great Something the energies of which I have called MIND-POWER." My thought on the subject is based upon the fundamental conception that THERE EXISTS IN NATURE A DYNAMIC MENTAL PRINCIPLE-A MIND-POWER-PERVADING ALL SPACE-IMMANENT IN ALL THINGS-MANIFESTING IN AN INFINITE VARIETY OF FORMS, DEGREES, AND PHASES. I hold that this energy, or force, or dynamic principle, is no respecter of persons. Its service, like that of the sun and rain, and all natural forces, is open to all-just and unjust; good and bad; high and low; rich and poor. It responds to the proper efforts, no matter by whom exerted, or for what purpose called into effect. But the proper effort must be exerted, consciously or unconsciously, else there will be no operation of the force." - William Walker Atkinson William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was a prolific writer. His works treat themes related to the mental world, occultism, divination, psychic reality, and mankind's nature. They constitute a basis for what Atkinson called "New Psychology" or "New Thought".

This carefully crafted ebook: "e;The Power of Concentration (Complete Edition)"e; is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of the New Thought movement. He is also known to have been the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka. Excerpt: "e;We all know that in order to accomplish a certain thing we must concentrate. It is of the utmost value to learn how to concentrate. To make a success of anything you must be able to concentrate your entire thought upon the idea you are working out. Do not become discouraged, if you are unable to hold your thought on the subject very long at first. There are very few that can. It seems a peculiar fact that it is easier to concentrate on something that is not good for us, than on something that is beneficial. This tendency is overcome when we learn to concentrate consciously. If you will just practice a few concentration exercises each day you will find you will soon develop this wonderful power."e;

"DHARMA stellt die Regel des Handelns und Lebens dar, die unter den gegebenen Lebensumständen des Individuums den nächsten Entwicklungsschritt dieser individuellen Seele am besten unterstützt."In diesen wenigen Worten wäre das Wesentlichste eigentlich schon gesagt. Doch was bedeutet das für unsere heutigen Wertvorstellungen? Woraus haben sie sich entwickelt, wie werden sie sich verändern und vor allem wodurch?Warum ist für den einen etwas "gut", für den anderen aber "schlecht"? Welche Rolle spielen Religion, Spiritualität, säkulare Gesellschaft und Individuen bei der Erstellung eines allgemeinen Wertekodex? Wie sehr sind wir von unserer Geschichte beeinflusst? Warum gibt es regionale Unterschiede im Verständnis von "richtig" und "falsch"? Wird die Ethik irgendwann in der Lage sein, die bestehenden kulturellen, religiösen und politischen Konflikte zu lösen?Gibt es eine kollektive menschliche Entwicklung? Heute ist die Diskussion über Ethik wieder in vollem Gang. Die Abhandlung über DHARMA von William Walker Atkinson spannt den großen Bogen von den Wurzeln der Beweggründe des menschlichen Verhaltens, über die drei großen ethischen Denkrichtungen, hin zu ihrer einander ergänzenden Rolle als Säulen im Tempel des DHRAMA.Dieser Text, der nun erstmals auch in deutscher Sprache erscheint, bietet eine wunderbare Ergänzung, wenn nicht sogar eine ausgezeichnete Grundlage für eine differenzierte und qualitativ hochstehende Wertediskussion.

"Psychology is generally considered to be the science of mind, although more properly it is the science of mental states-thoughts, feelings, and acts of volition. It was formerly the custom of writers on the subject of psychology to begin by an attempt to define and describe the nature of mind, before proceeding to a consideration of the subject of the various mental states and activities. But more recent authorities have rebelled against this demand, and have claimed that it is no more reasonable to hold that psychology should be held to an explanation of the ultimate nature of mind than it is that physical science be held to an explanation of the ultimate nature of matter. The attempt to explain the ultimate nature of either is futile-no actual necessity exists for explanation in either case. Physics may explain the phenomena of matter, and psychology the phenomena of mind, without regard to the ultimate nature of the substance of either."

"In these lessons I shall give you the essence and substance of the best scientific knowledge regarding the prevention and cure of physical ills by the power of the mind. But in presenting the theory and practice of Mental Therapeutics to you I shall carefully avoid all reference to mysticism or occultism, or strange metaphysical and philosophical theories. Mental Therapeutics is a science, not a superstition; it is something based on sound scientific facts, and not upon vague imaginings." - William Walker Atkinson William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was a prolific writer.

This excellent book represents one of the first and best presentations of Eastern wisdom in the English language. It concerns ancient Hindu traditions and the Yogic practice of observing and regulating the breath.We begin with an admission that Western students are often confused by what exactly Yoga is, and what it is meant to accomplish. Stereotypes of the yogi as spindly, dirty and disheveled men commonly seen sitting in fixed posture at a roadside or marketplace abound. Yet these dismissive images serve only to neglect the spiritual substance and ancient wisdom of yogi science. Seeking to dispel the negative stereotypes and present the vivid truth, Atkinson discusses the multiple schools of yoga and their general purpose. Some emphasize control over the body's motions, while others favor inner development of the spirit. Several however emphasize the control of the breath; and it a practical explanation of this that Atkinson relays in the remaining fifteen chapters of this book.

In this outstanding book, we find demonstrated various intricate and advanced thought processes, and discover how to employ them in order to achieve The Master Mind.For the author, individuals are split into two categories. Firstly, there are those who possess normal, sub-optimal minds; this group comprises the vast majority of humanity. The second group are those who, whether through conscious effort of will, self-belief, mindfulness or otherwise have achieved a higher, self-actualized state; those with a 'Master Mind'. Through sheer conscious will, and careful tending over a span of months and years, such a mind can be cultivated. This practical and instructive text tells us how to properly make use of our mental faculties, that we may increase our mental efficiency and thereby achieve goals in life. Such success may be simply intellectual; the desire to learn and recall knowledge as a good unto itself. It may be related to lifestyle; an outlook required to succeed in life and career.
