The Philosophy
of New Thought
New Thought, as defined
in the dictionary, is a modern spiritual philosophy stressing the power
of right thinking in a person's life, the idea that our thoughts and attitudes
affect our experience and that God (or whatever other name a person might
have for a Higher Power) is within the individual.
New Thought is a logical
and scientifically based understanding and method of changing our experience
by changing our thinking. New Thought is simple and easy to learn. It
has a tradition that reaches back over one hundred years and is founded
on principles that embrace many of the world religious and spiritual practices
spanning thousands of years.
New Thought recognizes
that human beings function on many levels: that the individual is a mental,
spiritual, emotional and physical being. In realizing our fullness, our
wholeness and maximizing our potential we are, in essence, finding fulfillment.
New Thought teaches
people tools which put us on the path to fulfillment. The natural extension
of this fulfillment is that as an individual's life is better, their family's
life is better, their community's life is better and this extends out
across the planet.
