About this listen
Keys to greater insight, creativity, and success
To “transcend” means to go beyond. What if you could transcend your individual limitations, link with the minds of others — even the mind of the universe itself — and access greater knowledge, wisdom, and creativity?
You can.
Secrets of the Mind reveals Ralph Waldo Emerson’s keys for accessing the expansive powers of the “one mind.” The sequel to Living from the Soul, this book rephrases and remixes Emerson’s writings on the principles and powers of thought. It concludes with practical advice on work, money, and success.
Transcendentalism is not a relic of interest only to academics. As Sam Torode writes in the foreword, “Emerson’s philosophy has the power to change the way you view the world and your place in it. It might even change your life.”
Here are some of the ideas explored in this book:
There is one mind common to all humanity.
The ancestor of every act is a thought.
Your own mind is your greatest teacher.
Thoughts become things.
As children of the universe, we are all born creators.
We each possess hidden gifts waiting to be expressed.
Inspiration is the fuel of constructive thought and action.
Wealth is mental and moral.
Successful people follow the law of cause and effect.
Power is magnified by concentration.

Story
Epictetus was brought as a slave to Rome, where he became a great teacher. His philosophy, called stoicism, was practical, not theoretical - aimed at relieving suffering here and now. And Epictetus knew suffering. Besides being a former slave, he was lame in one leg and walked with a crutch. Turning these obstacles to his advantage, Epictetus learned that lasting peace and happiness can only come from within. The Manual is a collection of Epictetus' essential teachings. It points the way to inner harmony and freedom, through all of life's storms and stresses.

If you've wanted to read Ralph Waldo Emerson but find his 19th-century prose too daunting, help is here.... In Everyday Emerson, best-selling author Sam Torode (The Dirty Parts of the Bible: A Novel) rephrases the works of Ralph Waldo Emerson in contemporary language. The goal is to make Emerson's wisdom applicable to our daily lives, proving that transcendentalism isn't a relic of the past - it's a way of thinking and seeing the world that's still valid and vital.
