Thomas Troward was a divisional Judge in British-administered India. His avocation was the study of comparative religion. Influences on his thinking, as well as his later writing, included the teachings of Christ, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. After his retirement from the judiciary in 1896, Troward set out to apply logic and a judicial weighing of evidence in the study of matters of cause and effect. The philosopher William James characterized Troward’s Edinburgh Lectures on Mental Science as "far and away the ablest statement of philosophy I have met, beautiful in its sustained clearness of thought and style, a really classic statement." According to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) archivist Nell Wing, early AA members were strongly encouraged to read Thomas Troward's Edinburgh Lectures on Mental Science. In the opening of the 2006 film The Secret , introductory remarks credit Troward's philosophy with inspiring the movie and its production.
The Edinburgh Lectures on Mental Science Thomas Troward Books
This treatise takes the seemingly mystical or spiritual quality of manifesting what you want in life (usually prayed for, and left to the realm of 'God', happenstance or hard work) - and shows that it is neither mystical or spiritual, but an universal law at work when it comes to creation, and ASSERTS THAT ABSOLUTE POWER IS YOURS, inherently, and quite scientifically, via your subconscious mind; as all universal laws work objectively, immutably, and without bias, such as the workings of electricity, or gravity, and the fact is, your subconscious mind, is connected directly to the Universal Law of Creation, and Universal Mind.All of the same era, Mesmer, Quimby, Judge Troward, then Robert Collier and Neville Goddard.... all 'tripped over' this same REALIZATION: that there was a power within each and every one of us, which creates everything we experience in our life, and IF we are AWARE of it, we can impress it with positive thoughts, love, and whatever visualizations we want of things we greatly desire, AND THOSE THINGS WILL MANIFEST effortlessly, as if by magic, in our experienced reality. We are already using this power by default, unaware of the negativity and limitedness we continue to manifest due to the impressions constantly feeding this mind.
Since the statements by Jesus, "....you shall do the works that I have done, and more..."; "....the Father and I are one" and, "... as He is in me, He is in you also....", men have questioned these statements, wondering what "the Father" referred to (or symbolized), desiring to know and use this power, rather than be left on the dung heap of bewilderment, prayers unanswered, powerless and feeble in our vulnerability, to not only the elements and our physical bodies, but our seeming lackings - of mind, education or birth.
Mesmer showed up on the scene, around the turn of the century, proving that a hypnotised person, no longer using his conscious or normal mind, could be given a suggestion causing phenomenal affects on both body (a cold fountain pen, placed on the bare skin of a hypnotised person, told that it was a hot poker just out of the fire, caused an immediate welt on the skin) and mind (asked to state the whereabouts of an audience member's lost relative, did so, to the astonishment of the member who followed up, and reported back; a coal miner to speak in french; and a child to give the mathematical root of pi).
But what 'mind' was the hypnotist speaking to, what was responding, and causing the body to respond, in these phenomenal ways? Assuredly it was not the conscious mind - but one beneath it: Hence, 'subconscious mind'.
My favorite line was that we should maintain, or never loose, a Peter Pan-like attitude toward life and ourselves. Always be open to the adventure, and never believe only in the seen, and seeming physical reality, but maintain utter imaginative zeal. For whatever we believed, so shall it be.... right up to ascension, and a life of no worry or fear whatsoever.

The Edinburgh Lectures on Mental Science Thomas Troward Books Reviews
Troward shiows how the Promises of the Bible are real when we understand the power of our word (i.e., the statements we make whether positive or negative have power to produce positive or negative results. He uses Jesus statements to how just how powerful they are to bring forth posituve results.
Our word shows forth, betrays our character whether we know it or not. Our choices come with our free will, and the law implements them into our experience for good or ill. Be more thoughtful and meaningful when you speak. Let trash be trash, don't talk trash. It comes back to you in your experience..
If you want to gain some serious insight in your life about humans and how this world is really what you make it. This is the book!! Troward was way ahead of his time, he uses big words so read slow, to fully comprehend!! If your having a hard time in life or struggling to find answers, take my word "THE LAW & THE WORD" will steer you in the right direction using several different approaches to success and pure bliss!!!
AGAIN, T.Troward was light years beyond his time in this world. He will change your outlook on life, world, and universe. I've read this book about 4 almost 5 times due to the fact I was involved in motorcycle accident and have been out of work. Was in the deepest darkest moments of my life, but after starting to read his lectures and " the law & the word" I've learned many useful affirmative tools and scientific prayer. I'm not big into religion at all but this guys writings are simply amazing and will teach you endless amounts on life, science, and how us humans operate! Stop reading my review and just put a few of his books in your cart and watch the magic of scientific prayer work in your life!!!!
Edinburgh Lectures is a classic in the New Thought movement, with Judge Troward having been among its most influential contributors. Because of his Victorian English, which includes lengthy sentences, a degree of patience is required, but he is as human as can be; and with a basic education and ability to read, you'll gradually find you can simplify his concepts as you get used to his style. Stay with him! You can follow his impeccable reasoning and logic as he takes you through his explanations of such things as the subjective and objective mind, cause and effect, the law of growth, intuition, the function of the Will, healing; and numerous other life-enriching concepts.
More than 30 years ago, I found an old used copy of Thomas Troward's Dore Lectures in an antique bookshop. This profound book has changed my life, impacted my believe system, influenced my thinking, and has guided and inspired me throughout my life. I searched through bookstores, online, even in garage sales for other works by Troward and slowly accumulated most of his publications. I was more than delighted to find all the newly published works by Troward, and I have ordered all of them. It was like finding beloved friends again.
They are as influential and valuable to me as they were so long ago.

All of the same era, Mesmer, Quimby, Judge Troward, then Robert Collier and Neville Goddard.... all 'tripped over' this same REALIZATION that there was a power within each and every one of us, which creates everything we experience in our life, and IF we are AWARE of it, we can impress it with positive thoughts, love, and whatever visualizations we want of things we greatly desire, AND THOSE THINGS WILL MANIFEST effortlessly, as if by magic, in our experienced reality.
