New Thought Primer, A Lesson In Soul Culture - Henry Harrison Brown
New Thought Primer, A Lesson In Soul Culture
Henry Harrison Brown
Always the inaudible, invisible Thought,
Artificer and subject, lord and slave.
~ Tennyson
These are thoughts of all men in all ages and all lands they are not original with me;
If they are not yours as much as mine, they are nothing.
~ Walt Whitman
The philosophy of six thousand years has not searched the chambers and magazines of the Soul.
In its experiments, there has always remained in the last analysis a residuum it could not reveal.
~ Emerson
Introduction
I purpose but an outline of the origin, development, principles and purpose of the widespread and ever widening movement comprehended under the term, New Thought.
The term has no definite meaning. It covers a movement at present heterogeneous and embracing many minor fields. Its limits cannot be mapped. Each person is to draw his own lines. In this Primer, I have intended to make the definition as broad as justice and the Principle of Evolution would let me. I have tried to be as impartial as truth, and to look upon every side of the question only as a reporter. The charge of partiality may be brought in my attention to my own position, but here I feel I have the right to be personal and positive.
TRUTH alone is our aim. I have consecrated myself to Truth and my life is now in her service. I can afford to be true only to her, and in love, just to my fellows. The reader will find in this that which will help him to an understanding of this mighty movement and will also find hints that will direct his future study.
Truth is so lovely that the Truth-seeker soon becomes the Truth-lover. I am glad of the privilege of lifting for a moment her veil, knowing that all who see will follow her. In Love and Truth,
Truly your friend,
HENRY HARRISON BROWN
Origin, History and Principles of New Thought
HEREDITY
Under the law of Heredity science traces evolution from parent to child and thus finds tendencies, faculties and conditions, that appear in parent, are transmitted to offspring. There is no human condition that is not the child of a preceding one. Variations occur and under the Law of Variation, Nature unfolds.
This law of evolution, of continuity, of method, and purpose is a constant one. Ideas also have their heredity. All movements in human thought obey these laws of Heredity and Variation. I purpose to trace in outline the Heredity of the New Thought movement. I will give information sufficient to enable the curious reader to easily fill in additional details. Desiring to deal justly with each form of the movement, I will correct any reported injustice in subsequent editions.
PAST EVOLUTION
Human progress is the gradual unfoldment of that which is eternally in man. Life in man is germinal; time is the unfolder. Each condition is but a slight change upon some earlier one. Effects are the result of some cause which is but the effect of some anterior cause, which is also the effect of a still more remote cause, so that when one seeks a beginning of any movement he is compelled to answer: The beginning is in Ultimate Cause.
Therefore to trace the beginnings of New Thought we should have to trace the beginnings of history. From earliest historic periods we can trace many of the ideas of this movement. Thought is a wave that flows like those of the ocean from shore to shore. Every age and people is a manifestation of this movement. A wave once started in ocean never stops till it reaches the limit of the ocean, so a thought once started will never stop, for there is no limit to the medium in which it is a wave. That medium is variously called: Energy, Spirit, Soul, God. Truth is one with Ultimate Cause. Truth is ever unfolding. Well says Lowell:
God sends his teachers unto every age.
To every clime, and every race of men,
With revelations fitted to their growth
And shape of mind, nor gives the realm of Truth
Unto the selfish rule of one sole race.
Individual perceptions and expressions differ and often some old thought, which is the common possession of the race, is given forth by some earnest soul as a supposed new revelation. The student of comparative religions, finds that all these varying systems are based upon the same conceptions. Max Muller tells us that three ideas form the foundations of all religions, viz:
1st Sense of some over-ruling Power;
2d His demands on us, out of which grow systems of worship;
