Described as the “apex of the philosophy,” the sixth sense is your inner connection to Infinite Intelligence, offering flashes of intuition, inspiration, and insight that logic alone cannot explain. Mastering the previous steps—desire, faith, auto-suggestion, and more—prepares you for this ultimate leap into genius and fulfillment.

Book cover

The Sixth Sense: Spiritual Apex of Success

Hill explains that the sixth sense cannot be taught—only experienced after internalizing all prior principles. It is the invisible bridge between the conscious and subconscious mind, delivering “hunches,” gut feelings, and flashes of genius that seem to come from nowhere. This is the channel through which Infinite Intelligence brings you guidance, protection, and creative breakthroughs.

Invisible Counselors and the Power of Visualization

One of Hill’s most profound rituals involved his “Invisible Council”—a nightly mental mastermind of historical figures like Lincoln, Edison, and Carnegie. Through visualization and auto-suggestion, he claimed to absorb their traits, gaining inspiration and life-changing guidance. Over time, these figures seemed to develop personalities of their own, shaping Hill’s thinking and deepening his understanding of success and character.

How to Awaken Your Sixth Sense

  • Master the foundational steps: desire, faith, auto-suggestion, planning, decision, persistence, and the rest.
  • Use meditation, quiet reflection, and visualization to cultivate inner stillness.
  • Embrace creative imagination—Hill revisits the difference between creative and synthetic imagination as keys to accessing higher wisdom.
  • Overcome fear and develop faith, as fear blocks spiritual insight while faith unlocks it.

The sixth sense often becomes active later in life, after years of discipline and personal growth. It is the hallmark of self-mastery, peace, and genius-level creativity.

Conclusion: The Ultimate Doorway to Wealth and Wisdom

Chapter 14 challenges you to see wealth not just as material, but as spiritual and intuitive mastery. The sixth sense connects you to Universal Mind, guiding you with inspiration, warning you of danger, and revealing opportunities that defy logic. It is the culmination of a journey—one that unites all previous principles into a holistic path to success and fulfillment.
