SICKNESS (see MENTAL ILLNESS as well)

 

EP 152        Egoism (the sum total of unbridled elementals) is the source of dis-ease throughout the personality, the nation and the world.

 

ET 119        A human being who is weak, in seeking to regain his strength, draws, subconsciously, etheric substance from stronger per­sons around him. In most instances the givers feel pleased, provided their own stock is sufficient.

In cases where this withdrawal is excessive, the donor begins to feel uncomfortable. Many likes and dislikes in our society are created by the unconscious transfer of etheric substance from one person to another.

 

By nature, the ordinary person does not have such quantities of etheric vitality as not to be exhausted when other people draw it out of him subconsciously, or when he himself, in his arrogance, gives it away to other human beings, whom

- egoistically - he thinks he loves. In such cases, various vibrations are created in the psychic body of the donor, which take the form of antipathy, fear, unease and other conditions

                                                                                                                                                                              

ET 124        We possess a complete etheric double, exactly similar to the gross material body in shape. We also have a radiance around the material body, which we call "health aura". Whereas the etheric double of the body is perfect and unchanging, and the physical body should reflect this wholeness and purity, the health aura is a colourful radiation of the state of health prevailing in the body. For those with the ability to see this aura --preferably a gift limited to healers-- they are able to determine the physical and emotional condition of the personality.

 

Illness, be it physical or psychic, is first visible on the health aura of an individual even before any pain or discomfort is felt. Problems arise when the etheric double is unable to impart enough etheric vitality to a location in the body, as a result of fearful, aggressive or stressful lifestyles. The body then fails to reflect the perfection of the etheric double, as the health aura begins to display signs of decay and corruption.

 

ET 124        Now, if we study the body of a person who is ill, we shall see that at a particular point of the etheric double where the sickness is located, neither the creative ether nor the kinetic ether are working strongly. On the other hand, we shall notice that the sensate ether shows increased activity, giving us the phenomenon of pain. The purpose of pain is to draw our attention and direct more ether to that point.

 

ET 125        We characterize the type of illness by the symptoms which appear in the material body. ... What symptoms do we see? What we see is a lack or an expansion of creative ether at the relevant point. This is a sickness of the material body and occurs when the personality, which dwells in the body has wasted etheric vitality --on hatred, anger, envy and other unbridled emotions-- taxing the Holy Spirit, Who - in Its Total Wisdom - prevents further use of creative ether for the construction and maintenance of the personality's health. In a healthy human being we see all the organs work­ing in harmony in the material body, each according to the purpose for which it was created. We also see the etheric double carrying out its own work in those organs, and the aura is radiating around the human body.

 

ET 161        Illness, be it physical or psychic, arises within a personality when an uneasy subconscious psycho-noetical climate fosters an environment that will nurture and proliferate a destructive energy. Conversely, an illness can be eradicated, or cured, when the elementals that fostered the problems have been resolved and removed. Illness is instructive in this light, because it requires that we address unhealthy subconscious forces --elementals-- that plague the personality.
