Medical Science Fragments Nineteen “Untitled”

     My followers are well acquainted with the phenomenon. Tuberculosis patients are often seen to improve, indeed getting to be quite active and energetic, and then experience a recurrence of purification. As the light increases in the spiritual world, purificatory action strengthens, and so we must change the way we treat the disease from now on. First of all, Johrei can be channeled about once a week, and the sufferer should rest as much as possible. Having said that, though, I do not mean “rest” as medical science does, as if the patient were a fragile doll not to be moved at all. One can continue to get into bed and sleep, and then get up as one likes, waiting until the fever recedes. After the fever is completely gone, one can start to move about, exercise even, to an extent that does not produce a very strong fever. When handled this way, recovery will take longer but will be certain, so patients do not have to feel anxious about their conditions.
