The Law and the Word

"The Law and the Word" by T. Troward is a philosophical treatise written in the early 20th century. This book explores the power of thought, the principles of the universe, and how these connect with the human experience, suggesting that thought is a critical force in shaping reality. Troward, a divisional judge in Punjab and a proponent of New Thought philosophy, aims to clarify the relationship between the creative power of human thought and universal laws. The opening of the book delves into the nature of thought and its pivotal role in the universe, positing that thought is not an abstract concept but a dynamic force that essentially governs all actions and events. Troward introduces the idea that human consciousness is not confined to the physical body, hinting at psychic phenomena and the existence of a "Universal Sub-conscious Mind." He underscores that to make effective use of thought, one must understand the underlying laws that govern its operation, thereby providing a foundation for exploring deeper metaphysical concepts as the book progresses. Through this initial exploration, Troward sets the stage for a further examination of the intricacies of thought and manifestation in subsequent chapters.
