About the author: "William Walker Atkinson (December 5, 1862 - November 22, 1932) was a very important and influential American figure in the early days of the New Thought Movement. He was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an occultist and an American pioneer of New Thought, which is in fact the title of a magazine he edited at one time. He is also known to have been the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka. Atkinson's 1906 book 'Thought Vibration, or the Law of Attraction in the Thought World' is associated with the thinking behind the phenomenal success that surrounded the 2006 movie, 'THE SECRET' Due in part to his intense personal secrecy and extensive use of pseudonyms, he is now largely forgotten, despite having obtained mention in past editions of Who's Who in America, Religious Leaders of America, and several similar publications -- and having written more than 100 books in the last 30 years of his life."
This book as his other works deals with remote viewing,(as well as other occult matters) the ability to see and hear events that are happening at a great distance, or to see into the past or future. This technology was used by the U.S. Government (although they will not admit this). Several remote viewers have been on the George Noray show on AM Coast-to-Coast. One of the remote viewers also teaches the technique to the public.
SELF PROTECTION
The person who are affected by "adverse treatments" or "witchcraft" or similar forms of adverse influence, invariably "believe" and "fear" that these influences are effective against them. By their mental states they render themselves negative, and receptive to the influences directed against them.This is an occult truth, and one that should be made widely known.
I tell you, if you will but assert our Individuality, and assume the fearless attitude, you will be able to laugh in the faces of these "adverse practitioners" of Black Magic, for that is just what it is, no matter how much they may try to disguise it by pious names.
These modern "adverse treatments" are nothing less than forms of the old witchcraft which so worried our great-grandfathers; nothing more than the Voodoo practices, or "conjure business" that so affrights the poor negro to-day. The principles are the same - the practice is the same - and the practitioners are the same at heart - black-hearted Black Magicians, all of them, and subject to the same inevitable fate which over takes all such people no matter how high their pretense.
All the charms in the world - all the witchcraft and Voodoo material agencies - can produce no other effect than is allowed them by the minds of the person sought to be affected. Fear and belief determines the degree of receptivity to such influences.
