Chapter 11- Medicine: Recommended


Activities Recommended: 

  • Being true to oneself
  • Making a study of God Wisdom and Christ Wisdom as it operates within the constitution and being of Man
  • Being true to oneself – firstly


“I refuse to make comment on the grounds that it might incriminate me.” 

This interesting statement of omission admits to an appearance of guilt, at the very least, and perhaps even of something more. If we are to object to revealing a truth, simply because that truth as we know it may incriminate us, then we are at the crossroads of law – whether it be moral or social law, we surely become nonplussed.

How is it that a man can be expected to go against his better interests and, for that matter, his better instincts and yet be true to himself all the while? True morality is formed within our beings, and is identified by a higher conscience which envelops the interests of that individual as well as the corporate whole. In other words, what is meant to be said here, is that true morality is conducive to the better interests of more than any one being, and this is instinctively know by them, whilst at the same time must hold true to the principle in selfhood as well.



However, we do have license also – concessions so permitted – which allow for our individual natures to be differing from all others. Both Nature and the Heavens do not anticipate our thoughts to move in utter unison and nor do they expect conformity amongst men to the point of robotic compliance. As individuals we are given spiritual freedoms to express ourselves in love in the World in ways which are particular to ourselves. Men, women and children all need to love that which they do in the World, else they begin to let lose their very desire to incarnate and begin to dissolve. Much of medicine addresses this very condition – one where lovelessness is causal to death and disease. 

“Being true to oneself” denotes more than holding a simple honesty – it also means that it is preferable to uphold, convey, express and give license to ourselves in being ourselves – and especially when we are called upon through criticism or objection by another to go against that which concerns that of our beings firstly. 

The first illness ever manifest began right here. Suppression of our selfhood blocks the passage of the life which would have otherwise flowed into our beings by the love which is excited through our passion, our interests, our desire, our curiosity, our wonderings, our great joys – our inner yearnings – natural to us, yet which are so quickly by-passed by the solemn and secondary considerations.
