Dynamic Thought; Or, The Law of Vibrant Energy

A philosophical work written in the early 20th century. The book explores the intersection of ancient occult wisdom and modern scientific concepts, proposing a unified theory that encompasses both realms. Atkinson presents the idea that life and consciousness permeate all matter, suggesting that everything in the universe, from the smallest particles to complex organisms, is alive and interconnected through mental energy. At the start of the book, Atkinson outlines his central premise: that life is universal and exists at all levels of existence, manifesting as both substance and mind. He emphasizes that life is not confined to what we traditionally recognize as living beings but is present in all aspects of the universe, including inanimate matter. The opening chapters examine the relationship between matter and life, refuting the notion of ''dead matter'' and instead proposing that even the smallest components, such as atoms and molecules, exhibit signs of life through their interactions and properties. Atkinson sets the stage for a deeper exploration of dynamic thought and the interconnectedness of all things, advocating for a new understanding of life that transcends conventional scientific and spiritual boundaries.
