“Since it is necessary to select a single word to indicate the Higher Force covered in this book, I choose to call it Supermind. The definition of Supermind is not complex; it is quite simple. I mean the mental faculty which is above and beyond the conditioned human thought. It is the same thing as awareness, consciousness, esoteric thinking. It is what an Eastern mystic would call the silent mind, or what the New Testament calls the Kingdom of Heaven within. It is your true self. Quite simply, it is the force within every man that is as high above the ordinary mind as the sky's above the earth.”

“It is a mistake for anyone to think he has lived too long in his old, unsatisfactory ways to make the great change. If you switch on the light in a dark room, it makes no difference how long it was dark because the light will still shine. Be teachable. That is the whole secret.”

“Supermind exists within everyone, but man is asleep to it. Our entire task on earth is to awaken to the unfoldments of Supermind.”

~ Vernon Howard from The Power of Your Supermind

Vernon Howard is an amazing 20th century teacher.

You may not’ve heard of him, but he’s sold over 7 million books and brings an incredibly lucid, old-school, straight-to-the-point kinda energy to his great books.

I was originally introduced to his work by Tom Russell who runs SuperWisdom.com (thx again, Tom!) and I *HIGHLY* recommend you check out the book if you’re diggin’ it.

Here are some of the Big Ideas:

1. Switching - On the light.
2. Mental Movies - Quit playing bad ones!
3. Don’t Be Impatient - Practice and relax.
4. Detecting Negativity - Is positive.
5. Psychic Spankings - Are helpful.

As we get our Supermind on, let’s remember we’ve *gotta* be true to ourselves!

Definitely my favorite Vernon Howard book. Vernon has a strange style to his writing. His use of anecdotal examples seem more confusing than enlightening at times, but when he just states his ideas plainly they are great. He has many practical ideas on life and that pragmatism appeals to me.

Supermind is nothing but a higher perspective to view contents of your inner life and outer life without getting trapped in them. Author says that Mind can't solve our inner problems as it itself is creator of them. I really loved his message.
