ILLNESS (66)

 

How foolish it is to try to cure illness

Without really knowing the true spiritual cause.

Illness is a cleansing action,

A purification of one’s spiritual body –

One of God’s wondrous blessings.

Life comes from God. Only God can make it whole.

Humans alone cannot create life,

Nor can they cure physical illness on their own.

 

A human being consists of two things, spirit and body.

Since the law of the spiritual preceding the physical is a

universal law, the spirit is of primary importance, while the

body is actually secondary.

The spirit should be transparent and pure, as in its

original state. But when toxins occur in the physical body,

they are reflected on the spiritual body as clouds. These

clouds, or opaque spots on the spirit, are the true cause of

illness. Once these opaque spots are removed, illness is

healed. This is the principle behind Johrei – transmitting

Divine Light to clear away one’s spiritual clouds – and it is

true healing.

The spiritual purification of clouds results in a physical

purification of the toxins, which must be dissolved and

eliminated. This process in the physical body, accompanied

by discomfort and pain, is called illness. But illness is only a

symptom appearing on the surface, and the true cause is

inside – the spiritual clouds.
