His works on the power of the mind have influenced millions in the
same manner as the words of Norman Vincent Peale and Dale Carnegie.
A brilliant speaker, a gifted thinker, and an inspired writer, Dr.
Ernest S. Holmes founded the United Church of Religious Science,
an international ministry that still flourishes today. His message
is simple: The universe has intelligence, purpose, and order. By
understanding its principles and applying them to ourselves, we
can see who we are and what we truly want in life. The author's
metaphysical belief does not conflict with other religions. In fact,
it embraces the tenets of all the world's great religions.
Dr.
Holmes believed it was possible to understand our place in the universe
by integrating science, philosophy, and religion. In Creative
Mind, his first book, produced in 1919, the young Ernest
Holmes worked diligently to put together a simple guide for the
many thousands who came to hear his words and who wished to know
more.
Creative
Mind is a little book designed to explain what each person
must discover for himself about the nature of the universe and the
creative power of his own mind. Certainly, his message was not lost
on a generation that had just concluded "the war to end all wars."
However, Holmes's message is timeless and is as fresh today as it
was then.
Ernest
Shurtleff Holmes was born in 1887 on a farm near Lincoln,
Maine. In 1919, Holmes published his first book, Creative
Mind. In 1926, he published his seminal work, The Science
of Mind. In the following year, he founded the Institute of
Religious Science and School of Philosophy and its monthly magazine
Science of Mind. As his lecture series continued to grow in popularity
and his ideas took root, more and more Religious Science ministries
were established throughout the country. In 1953, the Institute
was renamed the Church of Religious Science and Philosophy--later
to become the United Church of Religious Science, with member churches
throughout the world.
