The title is influenced by a verse
in the Bible from the Book
of Proverbs chapter
23 verse 7, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”
This little volume (the
result of meditation and experience) is not intended as an exhaustive treatise
on the much-written upon subject of the power of thought. It is suggestive
rather than explanatory, its object being to stimulate men and women to the
discovery and perception of the truth that -
"They themselves are
makers of themselves"
by virtue of the thoughts
which they choose and encourage; that mind is the master weaver, both of the
inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance, and that, as
they may have hitherto woven in ignorance and pain they may now weave in
enlightenment and happiness.
James Allen
