THE SANCTUARY OF THE SILENT HEALING POWER

I wish to speak to you again in this letter about healing, as so many
people appeal for help in overcoming their troubles.
Nervous condition is one of the most prevalent causes of disease in the

human body, for whenever the nervous system is upset it causes inharmony
throughout. I will explain briefly the source of the main cause of nervous
disorders.
To do so, I must give you a brief outline of the common theories, which

one knows in general practice, and which are used extensively by psychiatrists
although not always with success.
There is a fundamental basis upon which they do get a degree of success in

some cases yet in most cases they fail, showing that their methods are limited
in scope.
If one has not a knowledge of the truth of “Being,” that is, that there

is no separation between God and man as the only true foundation upon which
to build a new and free life, nervous conditions are liable to return, because
the victim is not fortified with this truth which will stand him or her in good stead,

when other distressing events occur.
In ordinary life we meet with bottled-up emotions and physical symptoms
caused by emotional stress and fear, which becomes a subconscious or conscious
stream seeking release, and this, seems to be more prevalent since the First

World War.
These symptoms may occur instantly or they may take some time to
develop. Frequently they are not strong enough to push outwardly just when the

event occurs. But by repeated distressing events in life this fear and emotion is
added to, and eventually a true case of neurosis is established.
We see here that it is not always the distressing event at the moment
that is the root, but that which has occurred previously. This root takes growth

through lack of understanding of the self, fertilized by repeated negative reactions
and produces a complex situation.
It is clearly seen then that a search is not always successful in gaining a

release from the prison the victim has created for him or herself, through the
lack of discerning the cause. For when one is awakened to the truth there
is always a discerning of the thought or reaction, and the motive behind them.

Thus there is perpetual freedom through this awareness.
When the symptoms appear instantly it is comparatively easy to remove the
condition. But when through a series of negative reactions, the symptoms
