Reincarnation and the Law of Karma

by William Walker Atkinson

Overview

"the doctrine of Reincarnation played a very important part in their philosophy. The prevailing idea was that the worthy souls pass on to a state of bliss, without rebirth, while the less worthy pass the waters of the river of Lethe, quaffing of its waters of forgetfulness, and thus having the recollection of their earth-life, and of the period of punishment that they had undergone by reason of the same, obliterated and cleansed from their memories, when they pass on to re-birth."

About the Author

William Walker Atkinson, born in Baltimore in 1862, was a leading figure in the New Thought movement. This movement was significant in late 19th century and early 20th century esoteric literature, giving birth to the manifestation practices of today. Atkinson's influence on spiritual philosophy and self-help remains profound and his books retain appeal for spiritual seekers.

Under various pseudonyms, including Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont, Atkinson authored numerous books on topics including yoga, Eastern philosophy, personal magnetism, and the laws of attraction. His works aimed to demystify esoteric teachings and make them accessible to a Western audience. Atkinson's writings continue to inspire and influence contemporary spiritual thought, self-empowerment literature, and the New Age movement.
