Product Description

To realise fully how much of our present daily life consists in symbols is to find the answer to the old, old question, What is Truth ? and in the degree in which we begin to recognise this we begin to approach Truth.The realisation of Truth consists in the ability to translate symbols, whether natural or conventional, into their equivalents; and the root of all the errors of mankind consists in the inability to do this, and in maintaining that the symbol has nothing behind it. The great duty incumbent on all who have attained to this knowledge is to impress upon their fellow men that there is an inner side to things, and that until this inner side is known, the things themselves are not known.

My Favorite
The works of Thomas Troward are among those that I cherish. Sometimes I actually pick up his books and hold them close to my heart....but this one - "The Hidden Power" is my favorite.

Written in essay form, he addresses a number of topics briefly with wisdom and clarity. As a Judge, Thomas Troward had the responsibility of looking at all sides before reaching a decision. These essays also reflect careful contemplation and consideration.

If you are interested in "old" opinions of "New Thought," this book is a wonderful introduction to an amazing teacher who left a legacy of inspiration and understanding through his writing. I highly recommend this book. I have read it, re-read it, highlighted and marked it and given away copies to others. It's a treasure!
