by Thomas Troward (Author)
The essays constituting The Universal Spirit were originally published as a series of articles by Thomas Troward. They are collected here, along with a forward by Paul Derrick describing Troward and his works. The Universal Spirit includes: Consciousness of Spirit, Intelligent Order, Application of Spirit and others. Thomas Troward was Her Majesty's Assistant Commissioner and later Divisional Judge of the North Indian Punjab from 1869 until his retirement in 1896. It is this later period for which he is best remembered and most celebrated; in it he was at last able to devote himself to his great interest in metaphysical and esoteric studies. Troward is one of the founding fathers of Mental Science and a leading proponent of the 'New Thought' movement, a forerunner of what is now known as 'New Age' thinking.
