Book Title: Think And Grow Rich

Author: Napoleon Hill

The book was exactly what I saw in the movie directed by a Nigerian movie director Ossy Affasson. The movie title ABIKU.

In the western part of Nigeria where I come from, there is a belief of reincarnation and fetish practices is also honored at high. A boy came from the family of seven and he happen to be the fourth child in this family been disturbed by what is been known and believed as Water Spirit (ABIKU). On a faithful day, the boy sat down and was thinking deep why his family is so wretched and nothing seems to be working out. He decided to go into the forest to ask the gods why the penury. When he got into the forest he sat at a corner with one of the green leaves with his face bent beneath his knee. He was in a deep thought of what to do and liberate the current status of his family. On the process of his thought, a spirit touched him and he speedily looked up but saw no one. He was afraid but decided to stay to confirm if what he felt was real. Behold an old woman tapped him after few minutes then he sprang up. The old woman started giving him assignments on what to do to liberate his family and become a rich man. She gave him two leaves and tell him to go a particular village there is a rich man there and he has been suffering from a very strong infirmity and the family has taken him almost round the world yet no cure. She told him what and how to use the leaves when he get there. The boy got up and as he was about to move, the woman disappears. He then followed the directives of this woman and upon getting to the village the servants of this rich man did not let him in. He tried to convince them about his journey from another village for a purpose of healing the man. They laughed at him calling him names and making mockery of this young man. At the end in summary, he was able to administer his medication and the man was health and that's how his deep though mad him grow rich as the man shared his wealth into two and gave him one for restoring his life again.

He thought deep, make a move in quest of liberating his family and finally he grew rich.

Write a four paragraph essay that explains how the change in mary reflects one of the themes of the book
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Colin Craven's absolute engrossment in the garden and its creatures fuses him absolutely with the stuff of life, and with the work of living—he is now certain that he is going to live to be a man, and proposes that he will be the sort of "scientist" who studies magic. Of course, the only kind of scientist who might study what Hodgson Burnett calls magic is a Christian Scientist—throughout the novel, the idea of magic is heavily inflected by the tenets of both Christian Science and New Thought. One definition of magic that the novel provides is the conception of magic as a kind of life force—it enables Colin stand, and the flowers to work out of the earth. It is also aligned with the Christian God, in that Colin says that the Doxology (a Christian hymn) offers thanks to the same thing he does when he says that he is thankful for the magic. This Christian connotation is strengthened in a number of ways, among them in Mrs. Sowerby's description of magic as a kind of creator, who is present in all things, and even creates human beings themselves—clearly associating him with the all-powerful, all- knowing, and omnipresent Christian God. Christian overtones can also be found in the scene in which Mary throws open the window so that Colin may breathe in the magical springtime air. Colin's half-joking suggestion that they may "hear golden trumpets" recalls the golden trumpets that are believed by Christians to herald the entrance into Paradise. Furthermore, Mary says that the spring air makes Dickon feel as though "he could live forever and ever and ever"; this idea clearly echoes the Christian belief that Paradise contains the promise of eternal life. Unlike conventional Christian myth, Paradise can be found on earth, in nature, as well as in heaven. This shift mirrors that made by Hodgson Burnett's system of New Thought, which held that divinity could be found in the landscape, in all natural living things. Colin again shouts that he feels that he will live forever directly before the singing of the Doxology. The children's magic circle is compared to both "a prayer-meeting" and "a sort of temple"; Colin is described as being "a sort of priest." The chanting they perform to call upon the healing properties of the magic is very similar to the healing prayers of a Christian Science medical practitioner. The idea that one need only "say things over and over and think about them until they stay in your mind forever" is also taken from the Christian Scientist emphasis upon the power and necessity of positive thinking.
