About this listen
Narrated by Gregory Sheridan
James Allen wrote frequently about an ideal world, the path to which was the practice of moral excellence. However, he contended that such a world existed not in a hypothetical afterlife, but in the here and now, and entry into this world is attained by the practice of rigorous self-discipline.
In the introduction, he writes:
In the midst of the world, darkened with many sins and sorrows, in which the majority live, there abides another world, lighted up with shining virtues and unpolluted joy, in which the perfect ones live. This world can be found and entered, and the way to it is by self-control and moral excellence. It is the world of the perfect life, and it rightly belongs to man, who is not complete until crowned with perfection.
