About the project

“You are the cause” – the thoughts you nourish shape your character and, slowly, the circumstances of your life.

Gândul Zilei – TU Ești Cauza

Day by day, the project brings a short meditation from the writings of James Allen (1864–1912) in Romanian – on the site and on YouTube. One by one, his complete books will be translated, read aloud and made available, and the library will open up to other classic public-domain authors.

Why James Allen?

Because he says a big thing simply: change begins in thought. His books are short, clear and suited to a minute of quiet each day.

Who it is for

For anyone looking for a minute of quiet in the day: spirituality without dogma, personal growth that starts from within, and self-education through classic books. No meditation experience is needed – just a little attention and the wish to look at your thoughts kindly.
