William Walker Atkinson's 'Thought Vibration' is a classic treatise of new age philosophy. Atkinson examines the nature of mental thought and its power to affect one's life in a thought-provoking discourse that elucidates the power of positive mental thought. The New Thought movement of the early 20th century vehemently believed in the concept of 'mind over matter,' and one of the most influential thinkers of this early 'New Age' philosophy promises to show you how to harness the extraordinary mental powers you already possess.

William Walker Atkinson was a successful lawyer, but the stress and strain of his unenlightened pursuit of wealth and prestige resulted in a complete physical and mental breakdown, and ultimate financial disaster. For Walker, this was merely the darkest hour before the dawn: after discovering and mastering the principles of New Thought, he rebuilt his health and his career on a stronger and more stable foundation than he had ever conceived of before. He also began to write extensively, he used psuedonyms such as Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka. Although still unproven, he was most likely all three of the Initiates credited with the writing of The Kybalion. The conflict between the independent ideals and values of a successful writer and the conservative credibility developed in his profession as a lawyer led him to use all of these various psuedonyms. Despite these opposing principles, the clarity and focus of his written works are undeniable and is the most likely reason why his books are still very popular today.... The pursuit of true Knowledge and enlightment are timeless endeavors. William Walker Atkinson was a true master.

I am in receipt of a letter from an earnest student of New Thought, who writes me that he is endeavoring to put into practice the teachings for which I stand. That is all right—I think he will get some good out of the practice (I know that I do). But here is where the trouble comes in—he goes on to say that he is "a faithful disciple” of mine, and is content to "sit at the feet of the Teacher," Now, if you will pardon the slang, I must say that such talk "makes me tired," I wish no "disciples"—disciples are mere parrots repeating what one says—mere human sheep trotting along after some conceited old bell-wether, I do not wish to pose as a bell-wether, nor do I wish a flock of human sheep trotting after me. I want every one of my fellow students of Mental Science to be his own bell-wether, I like comradeship and mutual help—the help of interdependence. But I don't like this talk of master and disciple—of leader and follower—this talk and idea of dependence.

I am in receipt of a letter from an earnest student of New Thought, who writes me that he is endeavoring to put into practice the teachings for which I stand. That is all right—I think he will get some good out of the practice (I know that I do). But here is where the trouble comes in—he goes on to say that he is "a faithful disciple” of mine, and is content to "sit at the feet of the Teacher," Now, if you will pardon the slang, I must say that such talk "makes me tired," I wish no "disciples"—disciples are mere parrots repeating what one says—mere human sheep trotting along after some conceited old bell-wether, I do not wish to pose as a bell-wether, nor do I wish a flock of human sheep trotting after me. I want every one of my fellow students of Mental Science to be his own bell-wether, I like comradeship and mutual help—the help of interdependence. But I don't like this talk of master and disciple—of leader and follower—this talk and idea of dependence.As for sitting at any one's feet, the idea arouses all the spirit of independence within me. I don't want to sit at any one's feet—and I don't want anyone to sit at mine. I am willing, and often glad, to listen to some teacher and to pick from his teachings such bits of truth as my mind is ready to receive- I am willing to say "I don't know” and to accept from others that which appeals to me as truth; not because the other says that it is truth, but because my mind recognizes it as such. I take my own wherever I find it, because I recognize it as mine. I know that all students and teachers get their knowledge from the only source of supply—they can't get it from anywhere else. And if some other fellow happens to see a particular bit of truth before I do, I gladly accept a portion of it from his hands, be he king or beggar; while if I happen to see the thing first, I will gladly share it with all who are ready for it, and who may want it, without feeling that I am a "leader," or "teacher," or that they are "followers" or "disciples” We are all fellow students—that's all. I recognize no man as my master—and I spurn the person who would call me "Master," if there be any so foolish. This feet-sitting talk makes me very, very weary.
