Irish author and New Thought minister Joseph Denis Murphy (May 20, 1898 - December 16, 1981) was ordained in Divine Science and Religious Science. Irish author and New Thought minister Joseph Denis Murphy (May 20, 1898 - December 16, 1981) was ordained in Divine Science and Religious Science. Murphy was raised a Roman Catholic and was born in Ballydehob, County Cork, Ireland, the son of a private boys' school headmaster. He left his family behind to move to America in order to pursue his desire to learn new things and experience new things, which he was unable to accomplish in the Catholic-dominated Ireland. Murphy visited India and spent a lot of time studying Hinduism with Indian sages. Later, he established a new Hindu-inspired church in America. Over 30 books were authored by Murphy. The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, his most well-known book, was initially released in 1963. Millions of copies were sold globally when it quickly became a bestseller.
