(Arabic: جوزيف ميرفي)
Joseph Murphy was a Divine Science minister and author.

Murphy was born in Ireland, the son of a private boy's school headmaster and raised a Roman Catholic. He studied for the priesthood and joined the Jesuits. In his twenties, an experience with healing prayer led him to leave the Jesuits and move to the United States, where he became a pharmacist in New York (having a degree in chemistry by that time). Here he attended the Church of the Healing Christ (part of the Church of Divine Science), where Emmet Fox had become minister in 1931.

In the mid 1940s, he moved to Los Angeles, where he met Religious Science founder Ernest Holmes, and was ordained into Religious Science by Holmes in 1946, thereafter teaching at the Institute of Religious Science. A meeting with Divine Science Association president Erwin Gregg led to him being reordained into Divine Science, and he became the minister of the Los Angeles Divine Science Church in 1949, which he built into one of the largest New Thought congregations in the country. In the next decade, Murphy married, earned a PhD in psychology from the University of Southern California and started writing. After his first wife died in 1976, he remarried to a fellow Divine Science minister who was his longstanding secretary. He died in 1981.

This is a very positive book and I like that. The prayers, or meditations, are well thought out and the stories are relevant to the individual chapters. It references God a lot, but the author is clear to state that God is whatever you want to call it, and also that this power comes from you, too. It is a nice and peaceful read.

Kolejna książka psychologiczna spod pióra Joseph'a Murph'iego jest poradnikiem, w którym to autor opisuje historie, gdzie ludzie poprzez zmiany we własnej podświadomości dokonywali rzeczy o których marzyli, których pragnęli i były początkowo niemożliwe do spełnienia. Autor w wielu sprawach i problemach przytacza fragmenty biblii, układa afirmacje i pokazuje jak problemy ludzi zostały rozwiązane (tutaj jednak trzeba wierzyć autorowi na słowo, gdyż nie przytacza on żadnych źródeł). Książka wiele czerpie w wielu aspektach z bestselleru Murph'iego "Potęga Podświadomości" bazując właśnie na wielkiej mocy naszej podświadomości.
Książka jest bardzo dobra i przyjemna w czytaniu. Jednak pomysły w niej zawarte trzeba przetestować na "własnej skórze" i dopiero można ocenić książkę i pomysły w niej zawarte w zupełności.
8/10

Amazing book. I prefer "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind" by the same author, has more theory and concepts, this is basically the same but with numerous "success stories of my clients". But the prayers in this book are the best part and they're really powerful.

cala książka opierała się o historiach ludzi z którymi rozmawiał autor
a sens treści przekazanej w książce to manifestacja i wiara w boga wywołujące efekt placebo

Wyciągnęłam kilka rzeczy dla siebie, ale książka ogólnie lekko rozczarowała. Za dużo przykładów, za mało wgłębienia w temat

A man before his time in 1965. A mix of metaphysical, Christian Bible and just plain common sense. If things are not going right in your life he has the explanation and the way out of it. Worth reading and understanding. I will reread this one.
