Synopsis

Excerpt from How to Make Money

In short our purpose is to awaken men from mental slumber, show the unlimited resources in human nature, the unseen yet open doors to mental wealth first, then as a natural sequence to wealth in material conditions, and thus enlarge and ennoble the life as well as add to its material ex pressions. The purpose of the true teacher — who is ever the true physician as well — must al ways be the more abundant life of which the Nazarene spoke and taught. To dis close that life, abounding life, in all its fullness and beauty and point out the laws by which it is gained, with wealth as a natural sequence, is the purpose of the three lessons on which we are entering.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Benjamin Fish Austin (September 10, 1850 – January 22, 1933) was a nineteenth-century Canadian educator, Methodist Minister, and Spiritualist. He served as the principal of Alma College girl school from 1881 to 1897 during which time that institution was regarded as one of the most prestigious centres of female education in Canada. B. F. Austin served the Methodist Church for many years as an educator and minister but was expelled from that organisation in 1899 for being a proponent of the Spiritualist movement. He went on to become a renowned Spiritualist in Canada and the United States, publishing many books and editing the Rochester and later Los Angeles-based Spiritualist magazine Reason . B. F. Austin was born in Brighton, Ontario, the son of another Benjamin Fish Austin and Mary Anne F. McGuire. He was described as a Canadian of mixed English and Irish ethnicity. Benjamin was raised a Methodist, the fourth generation of his family to belong to that church. He attended the local grammar school and worked as a teacher from the age of 16 to 20. At the age of 20 B. F. Austin began preaching locally and became more involved with the church, eventually attending Albert College in nearby Belleville, Ontario where he obtained B.A in theology and received a first class honours in Oriental Literature and Languages in 1877. He continued on at the college and was awarded a B.D degree in 1881. During his time at Albert College, B. F. Austin was the president of the school's temperance union. Albert College was joined with Victoria College in 1884 forming Victoria University, from which B. F. Austin received a D.D. degree in 1896. He was also as of that year a senator of Victoria University. That same year Victoria University became federated within the University of Toronto, so all of B. F. Austin's Alma Maters are now existent as federated parts of the modern-day University of Toronto.
