I have had the book for years and really enjoyed it. I have the so called original version reprined by Ballantine Books. I went on the Amazon website just to read customer reviews and came across one reviewer who emphatically stated not to purchase this book because so much information was removed. What was once clear and concise became vague and muddled. Well I found the original version free on the internet at
http://www.asamanthinketh.net/files/tgr.pdf and decided to go through each word to see if there was a difference. Wow! I realized that the essence of the book had been removed (perhaps even deliberately). I did not even think this was legal. I encourage you to write down or copy and paste just what is missing from your version of the book and then read it. If you have the Ballantine Books edition you will be utterly surprised. You will also notice several themes developing. Pay particular notice to the absence of the term Vibration of Thought and the word 'ether'. Which is the essence of the book. You will also notice quite often content removed about the U.S. government, church, woman and people who used their power not for riches but to start revolutions.
To Amadeus. It is our Vibration of Thought that determines our life. A person who is in a Beta brain state will have a different outcome than a person in an Alpha brain state who has similiar thoughts. These two sections were missing from my version of the book that I was fortunate enough to come across on the link that I posted above.
''The very fact that the subconscious mind is the medium of communication between the thinking mind of man and Infinite Intelligence is of itself, a thought which almost paralyzes one's reasons.''
''Through the medium of the ether, in a fashion similiar to that employed by the radio broadcasting principle, every human brain is capable of picking up vibrations of thought which are being released by other brains.''
''Vibrations of an exceedingly high rate are the only vibrations picked up and carried by the ether, from one brain to another. Thought is energy travelling at an exceedingly high rate of vibration. Thought which has been modified or 'stepped up' by any of the major emotions vibrates at a much higher rate than ordinary thought, and it it THIS TYPE OF THOUGHT which passes from one brain to another through the broadcasting machinery of the human brain.''
