Once called the "religion of healthy-mindedness" by the philosopher, William James, the New Thought movement was born almost 150 years ago as a revolt against the negative dogmas so prevalent in the churches of that day. The early New Thought movement was driven by the discovery that physical healing was possible through the power of mind and spiritual awareness. As that initial idea unfolded into successful application, practitioners of New Thought began to see that the power of an uplifted consciousness could also bring healing to negative circumstances and conditions in one's personal life. As it evolves today, twenty-first century New Thought is driven by a far broader intention. Planetary healing through self-realization is emerging as the new promise of these teachings.
Out of a deep
conviction and pure passion to give our movement a clear voice and commanding
presence on the global stage, the Association for Global New Thought
- AGNT - has been born. We invite you to learn more about this movement
and its global initiatives for peace, justice and healing, and in the
process discover your own spiritual calling. Welcome!
