Thinking and Destiny by Harold W. Percival is a massive metaphysical treatise regarded by followers of The Word Foundation as a cornerstone in esoteric philosophy.

  • The Descent of Man: how humans came into the material world.

  • Destiny and Reincarnation: the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

  • The Triune Self: Percival’s original concept describing the “Thinker, Doer, and Knower” within each person.

  • Conscious Immortality: how humanity can return to an eternal order of progression.

  • Occult Symbolism & Masonry: includes symbols, charts, and explanations of hidden esoteric meanings.

  • Philosophy of Thought: how thought literally shapes personal destiny and the world.

This book has a cult following in metaphysical, theosophical, and esoteric circles, and is still published today by The Word Foundation.
