Within You is the Power shows us there is a power lying hidden in mankind, by the use of which any person can rise to higher and better things in life. The object of this book is to help people to bring their inward powers of mind and spirit into expression, wisely and in harmony with the laws of life and to build up character. There is no way whereby the discipline of life can be avoided. There are no means by which fate can be 'tricked,' nor cunning device by which fate can be evaded. Each life must meet its own troubles and difficulties: each soul must pass through its deep waters, every heart must encounter sorrow and grief. But no one needs to be overwhelmed in the great conflicts of life, for one who has learned the great secret of his identity with the Universal Life and Power, dwells in an impregnable city, built upon and into the Rock of Truth, against which the storms of life beat in vain. While this book does not offer any vain promises of an easy life--for, if this were possible, it would be the greatest of all disasters--but rather endeavours to show how to become so strong that life looks almost easy by comparison.

About the Author:

Henry Thomas Hamblin was born at Walworth, London in 1873. Since his family was very poor, he was determined to raise himself from the rut which everyone was destined to fall into without being able to afford proper schooling. He started off by working in various scantily paying jobs and he decided to become an Optician. His lack of money did not hamper his determination and soon he qualified as an Optician. All through his life Hamblin had visionary experiences where he came in contact with a Divine Presence. The sudden and unexpected death of his ten-year-old son affected him so much that he came to realise that none of his worldly success had made him happy. He wanted to give the unexpressed part of him a voice and he started to write in the early 1920's. One of his first books was "Within You is the Power", which sold over 200,000 copies. Other books soon followed. He worked right up to the end of his life in 1958 and left a legacy that is still continuing today.
