Awareness of Metaphysical Laws
Our present world-dilemma is actually a manifestation of the identity-crisis in man. The only antidote to this problem is in the principle of being centered, and living in God-Consciousness rather in the lower consciousness of the mind. About two thousand years ago we were exhorted by the Christ to seek that we shall find. After looking here and there, many still do not know what they are seeking or why. That which is sought for lies within and not without, and it is Truth that we seek that discloses to us our Reality, our True self. The quest for the Holy Grail in the Arthurian legends is simply the search for one’s immortal principle, for the Reality beyond the Veil of Isis. This truth emancipates us from mortal limitations, mortal conditions, mortal thoughts–mortality, in short. In teaching, healing and counseling the meta-physician has to stress the importance of this vital law. Most, if not all metaphysical techniques and principles depend on the right understanding of man’s Divine, immortal nature.
Too many therapeutic systems deal exclusively with the symptoms or effects of an inharmonious condition occurring within a person. Seldom do they consider the immaterial causes that bring dis-ease into manifestation. It is estimated that around 80% of our varied illnesses have their cause in the psyche–the emotional and mental being of man. This would indicate that medicine working exclusively upon mere symptoms and not treating the core of the problem is 80% ineffective in resulting in a permanent cure. This is not to infer that medicine proper is without worth as a therapeutic system, it is just that it has to include in its methods the proper evaluation and diagnosis of the psycho-states that results in ill-health–and indeed, advances are being made in the field of psychosomatic medicine. It is in this field that one begins to thread in the area of metaphysical healing, for this particular form of therapy is concerned with one’s spiritual balance, with the state and condition within one’s psyche. Spiritual health–the state of being in harmony with the universe, with the Tao–is the basis of physical health. In the years to come medical science will probe deeply into the subtle bodies, studying occult anatomy and physiology. This study, however, should be undertaken now by the meta-physician if he is to be an effective instrument of healing. The healing of others, and self-healing is a challenge to every individual, and it is the work of the meta-physician to inculcate the principles and techniques of health and healing to the populace.
In the metaphysical healing process, the arousal of faith in the mind of the patient should be the first step. This principle was known by the ancient practitioners of theurgy and thaumaturgy. The Piscean Avatar, for instance, made it a prerequisite condition for those seeking his divine aid in returning a state of harmony back into their physical bodies. The role faith play in healing is one of the reasons why catalysts in the form of amulets and talismans that influence and transform the conscious and subconscious minds are sometimes effective in healing–as every Polynesian Kahuna and shaman knows.
