Who Was Dr. Joseph Murphy?
A Mystic in Modern Clothing
Joseph Murphy was not your average spiritual teacher. Born in Ireland in 1898, raised in Catholicism, and later deeply immersed in Vedanta philosophy and metaphysical science, Murphy’s spiritual journey was a fusion of East and West. He served as a pharmacist, a priest, a New Thought minister, and an author of over 30 books—all devoted to one core revelation:
Your subconscious mind is God in action through you.
What made him different was his language. He translated deep mystical truths into practical, everyday tools. His goal wasn’t to preach—it was to empower. He believed that anyone, regardless of background, could access the divine through the subconscious.
He called this power “infinite intelligence,” and taught that every thought you impress upon the subconscious mind becomes a mold the Universe rushes to fill.
The Subconscious Mind: Your Inner Creative Partner
Murphy taught that the subconscious mind is the womb of creation. While your conscious mind chooses and thinks, the subconscious accepts and executes—without question.
“The subconscious mind cannot take a joke. It accepts all thoughts as instructions.”
— Dr. Joseph Murphy
This is why idle negative thinking is so dangerous. The subconscious doesn’t judge. It simply acts.
Your reality is not the result of chance—it’s the result of your subconscious programming.
Murphy broke it down this way:
- Conscious mind = the selector
- Subconscious mind = the builder
- Universal Mind = the source energy responding to your blueprint
When the subconscious is saturated with belief, it contacts the Universal Mind, bringing unseen forces into form.
Enter The Cosmic Energizer: A Deeper Current
In The Cosmic Energizer: Miracle Power of the Universe, Murphy takes his teachings to their mystical zenith.
The “Cosmic Energizer” isn’t some abstract concept. Murphy describes it as the living, intelligent energy that permeates everything—including you.
He writes:
“The Cosmic Energizer is the presence of God in every atom of your being. It flows through your subconscious mind like electricity through a wire.”
This book is filled with invocation-style affirmations and miracle stories that border on the supernatural. But to Murphy, there’s nothing supernatural about it. It’s simply natural law, understood and applied.
One standout idea in this book is that you don’t need to beg or plead for miracles. You align. You impress your subconscious. And you allow.
Here’s one of the core affirmations Murphy recommends:
“The Cosmic Energizer flows through me now. It vitalizes, heals, and prospers every aspect of my being. I am one with the Infinite Presence.”
It’s not just pretty words. It’s a subconscious imprint, designed to awaken what Murphy calls your “miracle-consciousness.”
The Subconscious as a Bridge to the Universal Mind
Here’s where Murphy’s teachings get truly profound.
He doesn’t see the subconscious mind as separate from God or Spirit. He teaches that your subconscious mind is how the Universal Mind moves through you.
This is deeply in line with Vedic philosophy, which Murphy studied. In Vedanta, the antahkaraṇa—the internal instrument—connects the individual self (jīvātman) to the cosmic self (paramātman). The subconscious, then, is the portal.
“There is only One Mind, and what you call your mind is a branch of the Universal Mind.”
— Joseph Murphy
So what does this mean for manifestation?
It means you’re not trying to “attract” something far away. You’re awakening your inner resonance with the infinite. Your subconscious doesn’t reach for the Universe. It is the Universe, filtered through your unique self-concept.

Discover Dr. Joseph Murphy’s timeless teachings on the subconscious mind and how it holds the key to manifesting health, wealth, love, and success. This episode breaks down how belief, repetition, and mental imagery reprogram your inner world—and why the subconscious never argues, it simply accepts.
How to Manifest Using Joseph Murphy’s Teachings
Murphy’s methods are not complex. Their power lies in consistency and alignment.
Here is a distilled practical formula from The Cosmic Energizer and The Power of Your Subconscious Mind:
1. Affirmative Prayer
Murphy called this “scientific prayer”—a process of affirming your desired state as already real.
- Speak in present tense.
- Charge the affirmation with feeling.
- Repeat it with conviction.
Example:
“The Cosmic Energizer flows through me now. I am radiant with health, overflowing with abundance, and guided by infinite wisdom.”
2. Visualization and Imagination
Murphy insisted that imagination is the workshop of the subconscious.
- Create vivid mental images of your desired outcome.
- Engage all senses.
- Imagine from the end—as though it is already accomplished (paralleling Neville Goddard’s teachings).
3. Emotionalized Belief
The subconscious responds most strongly to emotion.
- Combine visualization and affirmation with elevated emotions: gratitude, joy, awe.
- Avoid fear-based or anxious desire; cultivate serene expectation.
4. Repetition and Subconscious Saturation
Murphy recommended repeating your chosen affirmations and visualizations:
- Upon waking
- Before sleep (the hypnagogic state is ideal for subconscious programming)
- Throughout the day, lightly and joyfully
Over time, this saturates the subconscious, bypassing old limiting programs and establishing new cosmic patterns.
The Science Behind It: Subconscious Mind, RAS, and Neuroplasticity
The Reticular Activating System (RAS): Your Subconscious Filter
The Reticular Activating System is a network of neurons in your brainstem responsible for filtering the vast amount of information you encounter every moment. It acts as a gateway between the conscious and subconscious mind.
When you saturate your subconscious with a dominant belief or image, your RAS begins to filter reality to confirm that belief.
Example:
- If you affirm “I am prosperous and success flows to me”—your RAS will begin to highlight opportunities and ideas that match this new belief.
Neuroplasticity: Rewiring the Brain for Manifestation
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections.
Murphy wrote:
“Your repeated affirmations and mental imagery build new thought patterns and habits in the subconscious mind, causing a change in outer conditions.”
Modern science shows that:
- Visualization activates the same brain regions as actual experience.
- Repeated affirmation and imagery can rewire synaptic pathways.
- Emotional intensity strengthens these new pathways.
Heart-Brain Coherence and Quantum Resonance
When we enter a state of gratitude, love, or cosmic oneness, our heart rhythms synchronize with brain waves, creating a coherent field. Some researchers propose this field may even influence outcomes at the quantum level—a concept that mirrors Murphy’s idea of aligning with the “Cosmic Energizer.”
In short:
- Subconscious programming → neural pathways + RAS filtering → shifts perception and behavior → altered external reality.
- Simultaneously, emotional coherence + intention → potential influence on subtle universal fields.
Real-Life Manifestation Stories
Throughout The Cosmic Energizer and his lectures, Murphy documented astonishing case studies:
- A man who cured himself of a chronic skin condition through daily cosmic energizer affirmations
- A woman who manifested a perfect new home after visualizing walking through its rooms nightly
- A businessman who reversed a financial crisis by mentally picturing and feeling abundance
Common thread? All of them impressed the subconscious, stayed faithful to the process, and aligned emotionally with their desired reality.
Why This Matters Today More Than Ever
In Joseph Murphy’s time, most people’s subconscious minds were shaped by family, books, and the prevailing culture. Today, we live in a world of 24/7 digital bombardment:
- Constant news cycles
- Social media comparison traps
- Algorithmic manipulation of attention
- Advertising designed to bypass conscious filters and program the subconscious
In this environment, if you are not consciously programming your subconscious, it is being programmed for you—often with scarcity, fear, and disempowerment.
Murphy’s message is more relevant than ever:
“You can rise above the noise of the world. Program your mind with the divine ideas of health, wealth, peace, and joy, and these will become your reality.”
Intentional subconscious work is the antidote.
When you apply Murphy’s techniques today, you reclaim the driver’s seat of your inner world—and by extension, your outer life.
You Are the Portal of the Cosmic Mind
You are not a passive observer of the universe—you are a participant in its unfolding.
Through the portal of your subconscious mind, the infinite intelligence of the Universal Mind flows into form.
Murphy knew this. He devoted his life to helping others awaken to this truth:
“There is an Infinite Power within you, waiting to be activated by your conscious choice and belief.”
So the question is not whether you are manifesting—you always are.
The question is: what are you choosing to impress upon your subconscious today?

Your subconscious is the bridge to the infinite. Nourish it. Align with it. And watch the Universe respond.
• Conscious mind = selector of ideas
• Subconscious mind = builder of conditions
• Universal Mind = Infinite source that responds to your inner blueprint
Because the subconscious “cannot take a joke,” idle self-criticism, fear, and worry are treated as genuine orders. Murphy’s work is about reversing that habit—impressing ideas of health, wealth, harmony, and divine guidance instead.
1. Define the end result. Be clear: healed body, ideal home, loving relationship, financial freedom, etc.
2. Create an affirmative prayer. Present-tense, emotionally alive, and rooted in unity with the Infinite. For example:
“The Cosmic Energizer flows through me now. I am radiant with health, overflowing with abundance, and guided by infinite wisdom.”
3. Imagine from the end. See, feel, and live inside the reality of your answered prayer—especially as you fall asleep and as you wake.
4. Charge it with feeling. Add gratitude, calm joy, and quiet certainty. The subconscious responds most strongly to emotion.
5. Repeat until it feels natural. Regular repetition saturates the subconscious, dissolving old patterns and establishing a new inner climate that the Universe faithfully mirrors back to you.
• Reticular Activating System (RAS) – the brain’s filter that highlights what matches your dominant focus. Affirm “I am prosperous,” and your RAS starts surfacing ideas, people, and opportunities that fit that pattern.
• Neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to rewire itself. Repeated affirmations and mental imagery carve new neural pathways, while emotional intensity strengthens them.
In other words, Murphy’s metaphysical model—subconscious impress → changed perception and behavior → new reality—beautifully parallels what neuroscience now observes.
• Upon waking, before the world grabs your attention
• As you fall asleep, when you are in a natural, hypnotic theta-like state
• Briefly throughout the day, in a relaxed, confident tone
You know you’re doing it “right” when the affirmation starts to feel natural instead of forced. At that point, the subconscious has accepted the idea, and you’ll notice changes in your mood, choices, and the kinds of “coincidences” that show up.
• Neville Goddard & Abdullah – the identity teachers who focus on “living in the end” and assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled as your new state of being.
In the language of this page: Murphy shows you that your subconscious is God in action; Abdullah shows you how to command it through assumption, decision, and nightly practice until the outer world has no choice but to reflect your inner state.
