Nine Elements overview
There is no weapon more effective than His will. It can in the fraction of a second transform the earth into sky and the sky into earth. He acts the human role when He moves among people, so men frame their own guesses without understanding the inner significance of His acts. That is but the consequence of the delusion that veils the vision of man.

As a scientist coming upon an extraordinary find, I knew that I would be writing and talking about it. Yet, as a young psychiatrist, I was thrown into some confusion trying to integrate the vast reality that Swami represented with the psychiatry I knew. Could I reconcile Swami’s reality with traditional psychiatry?
