Über den Autor
Charles Fillmore was a profound American mystic and co-founder of Unity, a church within the New Thought movement, alongside his wife Myrtle Fillmore. He was born on August 22, 1854, in St. Cloud, Minnesota, and embarked on a journey of spiritual inquiry and enlightenment that led to the inception of the Unity movement. Fillmore’s theological perspective was heavily influenced by the metaphysical interpretations of Christianity, where he fused Eastern and Western thought, including transcendentalism and the power of positive thinking. His seminal work, ‚The Twelve Powers of Man‘ (1930), is a luminary exploration of human potentiality through the lens of twelve spiritual attributes correlating to the twelve disciples of Jesus. Fillmore’s literary style combines allegorical interpretations of the Bible with a metaphysical framework, aiming to empower individuals to unlock their divine natures. This book, along with his other writings, provides an in-depth analysis of the metaphysical principles and their practical applications for personal growth and understanding. His legacy endures through the Unity School of Christianity and the Association of Unity Churches, which continues to promulgate his teachings and spiritual insights.
