All These Things Added: Finding the Heavenly State in Everyday Life

Are you searching for something more—a lasting peace and a purpose that the world cannot provide? In this profound and practical sequel to his classic, As a Man Thinketh, James Allen reveals the path to discovering the riches that lie within your own soul.

James Allen was a pioneer of the self-help movement, whose short but impactful life remains as instructive as his prose. Born in Leicester, England, in 1864, his world was shattered at age fifteen when his father, a businessman, was murdered in New York before dying. This tragedy forced Allen to leave school and work a series of jobs to support his family.

In 1903, he published As a Man Thinketh, a compact, powerful book that would become a cornerstone of New Thought philosophy and inspire millions worldwide. Its central premise—that the mind is the master-weaver of both inner character and outer circumstance—was revolutionary in its simplicity.

Seeking a quiet life to match his teachings, Allen and his family moved to the small coastal town of Ilfracombe. He rose at dawn daily to write and meditate in his garden, living the principles of mental discipline and spiritual serenity he espoused.

All These Things Added is not merely a book to be read; it is a map for the supreme spiritual journey. Written during the serene, contemplative years of Allen's own life, it reflects his mature philosophy, guiding you to gently dismantle the illusions of lack and fear to discover the one place where true freedom resides: the Kingdom of your own perfected self.

Through eloquent prose that speaks directly to the heart, you will learn to relinquish the burdens of selfish desire, cultivate a mind rooted in purity and love, and move from a life of struggle to one of divine ease. This is the core of Allen's enduring legacy: a call to stop seeking outwardly for what can only be found within. Your journey to the added life—a life of righteousness, serenity, and soulful triumph—begins with a single, inward step.
