New Thought
The New Thought movement (also Higher Thought) is a new religious movement that coalesced in the United States in the early 19th century. New Thought was seen by its adherents as succeeding "ancient thought", accumulated wisdom and philosophy from a variety of origins, such as Classical Greece, Ancient Greek, Culture of ancient Rome, Roman, Culture of Egypt, Egyptian, Chinese culture, Chinese, Taoism, Taoist, Hindus, Hindu, and Buddhism, Buddhist cultures and their related belief systems, primarily regarding the interaction among thought, belief, consciousness in the human mind, and the effects of these within and beyond the human mind. Though no direct line of transmission is traceable, many adherents to New Thought in the 19th and 20th centuries claimed to be direct descendants of those systems.

Julia Seton
Julia Seton (also Kapp and Sears; 1862–1950) was an American physician, lecturer and author. After graduating from medical school and working as a physician, Seton modernized the concept of "the Science of Names and Numbers" to what is referred to today as numerology, and it is through her work that numerology became known by the general public. She was friends with Sarah Balliett who created the modern style of numerology. Seton's work represented a million and a half people, of whom 6,000-8,000 were confessed believers. She asserted that "New Thought was a religion", and she was its self-appointed high-priestess. According to Seton, New Thought was a product of the twentieth century thought and need and it had its birth in human experience and human enfoldment. Seton served the president of the New Thought School, Boston, Massachusetts, Brockton, Massachusetts, Brooklyn, New York, and Manhattan, New York. In 1905, she founded the New Civilization Church, in Santa Monica ...

Numerology
Numerology (known before the 20th century as arithmancy) is the belief in an occult, divine or mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events. It is also the study of the numerical value, via an alphanumeric system, of the letters in words and names. When numerology is applied to a person's name, it is a form of onomancy. It is often associated with astrology and other divinatory arts. Number symbolism is an ancient and pervasive aspect of human thought, deeply intertwined with religion, philosophy, mysticism, and mathematics. Different cultures and traditions have assigned specific meanings to numbers, often linking them to divine principles, cosmic forces, or natural patterns. The term numerologist can be used for those who place faith in numerical patterns and draw inferences from them, even if those people do not practice traditional numerology. For example, in his 1997 book ''Numerology: Or What Pythagoras Wrought'' (), mathematician Underwo ...

Panentheism
Panentheism (; "all in God", from the Greek , and ) is the belief that the divine intersects every part of the universe and also extends beyond space and time. The term was coined by the German philosopher Karl Krause in 1828 (after reviewing Hindu scripture) to distinguish the ideas of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831) and Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling (1775–1854) about the relation of God and the universe from the supposed pantheism of Baruch Spinoza.John Culp (2013)"Panentheism" in the ''Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy''. Retrieved 18 March 2014. Unlike pantheism, which holds that the divine and the universe are identical, panentheism maintains an ontological distinction between the divine and the non-divine and the significance of both. In panentheism, the universal spirit is present everywhere, which at the same time " transcends" all things created. Whilst pantheism asserts that "all is God", panentheism claims that God is greater than the unive ...
