From Passion to Peace: A New Thought Classic on Self-Mastery and Inner Peace - Hardcover

by James Allen (Author)

James Allen's From Passion to Peace is a concise New Thought classic on self-mastery, inner discipline, and the quieting of the restless mind. Written by the author of As a Man Thinketh, the book sets out a moral and spiritual path from impulse, agitation, desire, and conflict toward calmness, clarity, compassion, and inward peace. Allen's central concern is not worldly success alone, but the transformation of character through right thought, self-control, and a deeper understanding of the laws governing conduct and consequence.

First published in 1910, From Passion to Peace belongs to the enduring literature of New Thought, practical philosophy, and spiritual self-culture. Allen writes in the aphoristic and meditative style that made his work influential among readers of inspirational literature, personal growth, and metaphysical thought. The movement from passion to peace is presented as an inward discipline: the gradual replacement of domination by desire with steadiness, forgiveness, wisdom, and moral strength.

This Sublime Books edition presents a compact but substantial work from one of the most widely read figures in early twentieth-century self-help and New Thought writing. For readers interested in As a Man Thinketh, classic self-help, mind-power literature, spiritual discipline, moral philosophy, meditation on character, and the history of positive thinking, From Passion to Peace remains a clear and searching guide to the inner life.
