I have discussed these two conditions at length because it is
essential that another law anent healing be understood before we proceed any further. The
discussion about the split personality, the problems of the mystic and the new mode of
approach to disease (from the soul angle and the realm of causes, instead of from the
personality angle and the realm of effects) can clarify this law in your minds and
indicate at least its reasonableness and its valuable application to human need.
Law
IV
Disease, both physical and psychological, has its roots in the good, the beautiful and the
true. It is but a distorted [120] reflection of divine possibilities. The thwarted soul,
seeking full expression of some divine characteristic or inner spiritual reality, produces
within the substance of its sheaths a point of friction. Upon this point the eyes of the
personality are focused, and this leads to disease.
The art of the healer is concerned with the lifting of the downward focused eyes unto the
soul, the Healer within the form. The spiritual or third eye then directs the healing
force, and all is well.
