Fascinating Example of Logic Applied to a Traditionally Illogical Subject
First, let me say that although I have been reading Troward and Ernest Holmes and others for decades now, this is the first time that meaning and understanding have been present at the same time.Although I took them out of order, "Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning" first, and then "The Creative Process...", for me at this time it made little difference.I believe that until one is ready for them, these are the kind of books that have little meaning. Troward has envisioned such a thoroughly seamless theology, that it is as much science as religion, if the term science could be applied to something that can only be described as an exercise in logic upon "Creationist Theology".As these books were written so long ago, (Troward was a British judge in the Punjab, a region of India) his English style takes a bit of getting used to.Despite all of this, I cannot recommend his writings strongly enough. For the student or the seeker, this man was in possession of a remarkable mind. Enjoy!

A brilliant book
This is only one in a series of brilliant books written by Judge Thomas Troward, considered one of the founding fathers of the New Thought movement that happened in the late 19th century and into the early 20th. The revolutionary Science of Mind philosophy, (NOT the Scientology cult )which is now a worldwide spiritual teaching founded by Ernest Holmes in the 1920s, is Troward's most direct legacy. Although some consider Troward a bit difficult to read and understand, his ideas on the nature of Life, the Universe, God, and everything are nothing short of brilliant, and required reading for any New Thought student - or anyone seeking a sensible, believable alternative to Ye Old Thyme Religion that seamlessly melds scientific principles with spirituality, showing that they are actually different points on the same yardstick.

Informative
This book contains information you didn’t even know you wanted to know. This book has the power to uplift and change your mindsets. It isn’t the quickest read but well worth it.

Excellent: words that keep on giving
This is a quote and it reflects my opinion more eloquently than I could: "Thomas Troward is one of the greatest spiritual guides in our history whose works provide the inspiration for much that is written and taught today in the area of new thought, the mind sciences, and even mystic Christianity. His works were influenced by his long years of study in the teachings of the Bible, those of Islam, Buddhism, and the Hindu teachings. As a Bible scholar he had few equals."

Highly recommended reading if you are a serious student of metaphysics
This is not a quick read and scientific reference is somewhat dated.However, if viewed from the scientific atomic culture of the day, it is quite revolutionary.The author is focused on an intermediate forensic dissection of metaphysical principles.Highly recommended reading if you are a serious student of metaphysics.

Required reading for all students of metaphysics
The writing style is from a bygone era, but not so hard a chore to read as, say, Emerson. Truly astounding metaphysics that proves with flawless logic and sometime ordinary arithmetic, the existence of a "magic" power available to anyone who will seek to understand and harness it.Second only to The Edinburgh Lectures, this is Troward's most profound work, though others may argue that The Creative Process in the Individual is actually his best... and I'd be hard pressed to offer up much of an argument.

Wow!
Thomas Troward is amazing and I've learned a great deal. This work is amazing and there is nothing new under the sun. This blows Rhonda Byron's "The Secret" which was essentially plagiarized from "THE SECRET OF AGES" Robert Collier (do read Collier's undiluted version).

It's pretty heavy reading
It's pretty heavy reading, but good thinking. I read it for a class, and I really loved it, but the language and style are wordy and archaic.

Creative Process
I quite enjoy reading Troward's work, even though I find it find it difficult to grasp. you really need to read his work over and over again, till the penny drops. The language and style is a bit dated which contributes to the difficulty. But there's some real treasure to be found in his books if you dig deep enough. You also really need to read all his books together to start getting it. If your new to Troward I would recommend starting with the Dore Lectures first as this is the easiest to understand.

Life changing
This book was inspiring, enjoyable and most understandable to read. It uplifted me in so many ways and made sense of thoughts that were there with me but not in an order that spoke to me which this book most surely did...Thank you very much Thomas Troward and those responsible for allowing the sharing of his understandings 💗
