Complete Genevieve Behrend Collection
IMAGINE you were able to sit at the feet of the greatest thinker alive – a man who had distilled the complete philosophical data from all the world’s major religions. Who lectured about his research and then wrote popular, bestselling books on those same findings. Whose published works were revolutionary in concept – while the ideas behind them were ancient and whose origins were themselves lost in antiquity, at least, until he started lecturing about them.
And then imagine that you were his only student. That you had his undivided attention for your studies. That you could ask him anything you wanted.
That is exactly the scene which Genevieve Behrend found herself in.
She had read Thomas Troward’s Edinburgh and Dore lectures and then started applying these to herself. When he defined the Law of Attraction and how to apply it to your own life – she took these words to heart and applied them to those things she most wanted.
She figured she needed a princely sum to be able to journey to England and become the student of Thomas Troward. By applying these teachings (which she describes in the books herein) she made her dreams come true. She got the money, she got her trip, she became that student.
And gave the world an insight into this legendary mind which no one at the time or since has accomplished.
Her own world changed as a result. She wrote two books, and found herself in such demand that she spent the rest of her life lecturing and traveling.
As you listen to “The Secret” DVD, you hear teachers who tell you that all this is possible. When you read the books following, you see that Behrend created – in the early 1920′s, in a male-dominated world – a dream life that any today would love to have.
She showed us that these principles are accurate, that they work when exactly applied, than anyone can use them to change their lives completely – to one which has only existed in their dreams before this point.

How To Attract To Yourself The Things You Desire
The power within you which enables you to form a thought picture is the starting point of all there is. In its original state it is the undifferentiated formless substance of life. Your thought picture forms the mould (so to speak) into which this formless substance takes shape.
Visualizing, or mentally seeing things and conditions as you wish them to be, is the condensing, the specializing power in you that might be illustrated by the lens of a magic lantern. The magic lantern is one of the best symbols of this imaging faculty. It illustrates the working of the Creative Spirit on the plane of the initiative and selection (or in its concentrated specializing form) in a remarkably clear manner.
This picture slide illustrates your own mental picture -invisible in the lantern of your mind until you turn on the light of your will. That is to say, you light up your desire with absolute faith that the Creative Spirit of Life, in you, is doing the work. By the steady flow of light of the will on the Spirit, your desired picture is projected upon the screen of the physical world, an exact reproduction of the pictured slide in your mind.
…
When all said and done, happiness is the one thing which every human being wants, and the study of visualization enables you to get more out of life than you ever enjoyed before. Increasing possibilities keep opening out, more and more, before you.
