We are spiritual beings first,
before we are mental, emotional and physical persons. It is this spiritual self
that is perfect and whole always, for it the self-created in the image of God.
This real self is the pattern for the physical self, it can never be harmed,
and because of this the physical body can be repaired and restored. The mold is
there. Our prayers and desires provides the building materials. Since the
spiritual is the beginning, the creator, the healing is done through the
spiritual.
Therefore healing is a divine
right and it is possible spiritually no matter what conditions are. At every
juncture there is a word, there is something that can stop a hopeless condition.
So the healing mind must develop a kind of awareness that he or she is related
to a great creative spirit that infuses it's very life into our minds and
bodies when we turn our attention to it.
Now, the inside part of man is
the spirit man and this spirit or psychic man consists principally of what is
termed autonomic nervous system with its various sections, parts, psychic
centres and glands. You have both a physical heart and spiritual heart. The
spiritual heart is invisible; inside the physical one.
When the doctor operates on the
heart, he does not see the invisible psychic part of man. All the organs of the
body have invisible counterparts. Every part of your body has its replica in
the spiritual. Because of this the healing mind must know that in disease conditions
there is something above the physical body that when contacted can change the
situation as it is being experienced. Your mind has control over every part of
your body.
Very often, the cause of disease
is deeply rooted in the consciousness of the individual. That is where a
metaphysician (healing mind) is absolutely necessary as an additional means of
bringing about relief in many situations. Unconscious habits of thinking and
inharmonious mental attitude are two of the great causes that every metaphysician
must search for in all chronic disease conditions.
The patient is often the last one
to suspect that these two things may be the real cause of his sufferings.
Therefore, the metaphysician must be diplomatic and well-armed with fundamental
metaphysical knowledge of the mind as he intervenes for healing. That is why
the first recommendation is that the person meditates with Psalm 119 subrosa. In this psalm is a system of affirmation and
denial.
The metaphysician therefore
treats causes and not symptoms. He or she knows that true causes are usually not
physical, but in the region of consciousness. If the mind is beset with clouds
of vexation, inhibitions, bitterness, animosity, impatience, resentment, anger,
indignation, stubbornness, false pride, tension, sorrow and disappointments,
one form of illness or the other would arise.
Wonderful healing occurs when you
project a picture of good health to a person. Mary Baker Eddy founder of Christian
Science understood and taught this. She saw that anything short of
perfection in health had a cause in consciousness. Correct that imperfection in
consciousness and it disappears in the material world. This fundamental of
metaphysical healing are also understood by Unity school of practical Christianity or Unity Church. It is also being taught by the Church of Religious Science founded by Ernest Holmes. If you are a Christian and have not learnt from
these schools then you in darkness.
