Esoteric Healing - Chapter II - Causes Emanating from Group Life |
The subjective reasons given to account for the appearance of
these two most ancient racial diseases may well appear to the non-esotericist as possible
but not probable and as fanciful and too general in nature. This cannot be helped. These
two groups of diseases are of such exceedingly ancient origin that I have called them
inherent in the planetary life itself and the heritage of all humanity, for in all, the
breaking of certain laws will bring about these diseases. If I cared to do so, I could
take you still further back into the realm of cosmic evil as it prevails in our solar
system and affects the planetary Logos, Who is still numbered among "the imperfect
Gods." The outer form of the planet through which He expresses Himself is impregnated
to a certain depth with the seeds and germs of these two diseases; as immunity is built
up, however, as methods of cure are developed, as preventive medicine comes into its own,
and as man himself arrives at increasing mental and soul control of the animal and desire
natures, these forms of human suffering will disappear, and (no matter what [236]
statistics may say) they are disappearing among the more controlled areas of the human
family. As the life of God (expressing itself as individual divinity and universal
divinity) pulsates more powerfully through the kingdoms of nature, these two penalties of
evil-doing will inevitably no longer be required and will disappear for three reasons:
Another reason which will bring about the cessation of those practices and modes of living and desiring which account for these diseases is one little recognized as yet; it was referred to by the Christ when He spoke of the time when nothing secret would remain hidden and when all secrets would be shouted aloud from the housetops. The growth of telepathic registration and of the psychic powers such as clairvoyance and clairaudience will eventually tend to strip humanity of the privacy in which to sin. The powers whereby the Masters and the higher initiates can ascertain the psychic state and physical condition of humanity, its quality and consciousness, are already beginning to show [237] themselves in advanced humanity. People will sin, commit evil deeds and satisfy inordinate desire, but they will be known to their fellowmen and nothing that they do will be carried out in secret. Some one or some group will be aware of the tendencies in the life of a man, and even of the incidents in which he satisfies some demand of his lower nature, and the fact of this possibility will act as a great deterrent - a far greater deterrent than you can imagine. Man is indeed his brother's keeper, and the keeping will take the form of knowledge and of "boycott and sanctions" - as it is called today in reference to the penalizing of nations. I would have you ponder on these two modes of treating wrong doing. They will be practically automatically applied as a matter of good taste, right feeling and helpful intention by individuals and groups to other individuals and groups, and in this way crime and the tendency to evil doing will gradually be stamped out. It will be realized that all crime is founded upon some form of disease, or upon a glandular lack or over-stimulation, based in turn upon the development or the underdevelopment of some one or other of the centers. An enlightened public opinion - informed as to man's constitution and aware of the great Law of Cause and Effect - will deal with the criminal through medical means, right environmental conditions, and the penalties of boycott and sanctions. I have no time to enlarge upon these matters, but these suggestions will give you food for thought. |
