Rate this book
YOU ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU’VE EVER REALIZED

We are raised to believe in strict limits on who we are. But there is a greater truth―and a greater you. In Your Super Powers!, Joseph Murphy, the groundbreaking author of The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, teaches you how to take a whole new measure of your abilities. You have no limits. Murphy writes, other than those imposed by your new ideas are transformative power that reshape your existence.

In seven selected writings, Murphy reveals the powers of your mind waiting to be refined, honed, and used, so that you can knowingly shape your world, rather than be shaped by chronic, rambling, and runaway thoughts. The very hunger that you feel for change is what sets your self-discovery in motion.

This collection, part of a new series called Joseph Murphy’s Golden Lessons , is edited and introduced by popular voice of esoteric spirituality Mitch Horowitz. It includes Mitch’s short bio of Murphy and a timeline of the teacher’s life. “Desire, need, hunger―do you feel these things right now”, Mitch askes in his introduction. “You must if you picked up this book. Good. Those are the impulses that summon you to your super-self.”

(Arabic: جوزيف ميرفي)
Joseph Murphy was a Divine Science minister and author.

Murphy was born in Ireland, the son of a private boy's school headmaster and raised a Roman Catholic. He studied for the priesthood and joined the Jesuits. In his twenties, an experience with healing prayer led him to leave the Jesuits and move to the United States, where he became a pharmacist in New York (having a degree in chemistry by that time). Here he attended the Church of the Healing Christ (part of the Church of Divine Science), where Emmet Fox had become minister in 1931.

In the mid 1940s, he moved to Los Angeles, where he met Religious Science founder Ernest Holmes, and was ordained into Religious Science by Holmes in 1946, thereafter teaching at the Institute of Religious Science. A meeting with Divine Science Association president Erwin Gregg led to him being reordained into Divine Science, and he became the minister of the Los Angeles Divine Science Church in 1949, which he built into one of the largest New Thought congregations in the country. In the next decade, Murphy married, earned a PhD in psychology from the University of Southern California and started writing. After his first wife died in 1976, he remarried to a fellow Divine Science minister who was his longstanding secretary. He died in 1981.

Książka sama w sobie jest bardzo ucząca ale jest w niej dużo powtórzeń i wiele kwestii ,w których się nie zgadzam. Niemniej jednak można z niej wiele wyciągnąć

ta książka trafiła w ręce naprawdę nieodpowiedniego odbiorcy (czyt. mnie), z szacunku do różnych poglądów nawet jej nie ocenię. mimo mojego kompletnie innego zdania - uważam jej treść za… ładną. może nie dla mnie, ale w obiektywnym tego słowa znaczeniu.
nie polecam ani nie odradzam - jeśli twórczość murphyego ma was znaleźć, to prędzej czy później i tak to zrobi.

Zachęcona stwierdzeniami „musisz przeczytać coś Murphy’ego” skusiłam się na tę pozycję i to był błąd. Nie zmieniła ona w moim życiu niczego, wywoływała tylko frustrację na pojawiające się w każdym zdaniu odniesienia do Boga oraz absurdy tj. „nie masz wysypki z powodu uczulenia na truskawki, to tylko twoja podświadomość”…

wisdom and truth

The best way to help us code our mind and transmit the right messages to subconscious.
It’s so simple, why do we like to complicate things?

Dużo sprzeczności, dużo cytatów biblijnych (można się było tego spodziewać w sumie), potęga podświadomości o dużo lepsza, to już się ciężko czyta

Great book. Reminds us to be true to ourselves and have faith in what we have been given that is innate within us.

I’m sensing a theme this year - TRUTH. This feels like one of the truest books even written. Immediately going to re-read. Fully of returnable wisdom. Love.

*read again following week. I will revisit this one time and time again.

Książka tylko dla wierzących w Boga, nie tego się spodziewałam po książce rozwojowej. Pierwsza książka, którą w trakcie czytania przerwałam i do niej nie wrócę.

Joseph Murphy continues combining Christianity with LOA (or rather vice versa).
