Art of Healing (Process of purification of the spirit and the body)
On September 24
By Rev. Minoru Nakahashi
Today’s poems written by Meishu-sama are about the origin of sickness and how to be healed. We are taught that a human being has not only a physical body but also a spiritual body. A human being has a spiritual reason to exist as well as a physical. In addition to that let me add that our soul is an individualized part of God, so we have a sacred existence. It’s important to be aware of this.
We live a complicated existence because we are connected to the three dimensions of the divine realm, the spiritual realm and the physical realm and it is impossible to tell how influence each realm has on us. It all depends on how we think and act. It is probably right to say that 99% of the time we live and are influenced by the physical realm, while 1 percent by the divine realm. That sounds appropriate.
Sickness is a process of purification process and is just a phenomenon (simply mysterious). The cause lies in the spiritual realm. When your individualized part of God (soul) gets weak or malnourished, you get sick. Most people don’t know about this. We must raise our souls as we resolve to overcome our suffering.
After knowing the origin of sickness and how to deal with it, we don’t have to focus on the physical but we should try to live in accordance with spiritual laws. Yes, it is easy to say but hard to do. All the sufferings you may experience in this world must be resolved. For this, you don’t need the arbitrary distinctions between the three dimensions. You can learn from experiences in your life.
You probably notice that when I speak, I close my eyes. The reason I do so is to refrain from merely looking what I can physically see. While it may be best to open one’s eyes while speaking, we cannot overlook things that can’t be seen. So again, I close my eyes. In that way I feel it possible to dip out the water from the deeper place in the fountain. I hope that you can understand.

FAITH AND FREEDOM
16. FAITH AND FREEDOM
There is, in the world, several religion types; some more, other fewer notables, that can be classified as big, averages, or small. All, without exception, are considered superiors and they judge the other inferior. For that reason, they forbid the followers of maintaining contact with the other ones, affirming that are demoniac faiths. Besides, they fear the own God in which they believe and they say that there is not salvation for who divides their faith between two credos. Some religions are, in that aspect, extremely rigorous the such point of their preachers threaten with terrible misfortunes, serious diseases, loss of the own life, or until the death of the whole family, case some of their members manifests the desire to change the other faith. For incredible that it seems, that species of faith, quite common in the venerable and old religions, it still today shows even in the most recent doctrines. We see, like this, that as regards to freedom of thought, there are many points to perfect, therefore they persist rests of feudalism not only in the social and political field, but also in the religious person.

STRONGER OR WEAKER JOHREI
15. STRONGER OR WEAKER JOHREI
That problem is plenty complex, but there is difference of power in a person's Johrei for other, depending on the honesty with that acts or it accomplishes their dedication work. A lot of times somebody looks kindness; however it is bad in the bottom of the heart; another seem bad; however they have a lot of Makoto and they get excellent results with Johrei that supply. There are cases, especially of older members, which do not get many satisfactory effects in cures, because they are dominated by the vanity or for they interpret in an erroneous way the Teachings. Of another part, Johrei of a recent member, that it was not still 'touched' by the presumption, has more power and it brings extraordinary results, almost always. Another point to which we should be very attentive is the availability for the dedication. There are members seemingly good, but that are not devoted enough. In this case, Johrei that they channel is weak, because God only grants to power to who has deserve. Even it seems an excellent person, if he/she doesn't have praiseworthy, it will never supply a good Johrei. In synthesis, it can be said that is important to observe the results. It is impossible, therefore, to distinguish only through apparent observations, nor to admit the truth without first to accept God as the only expert of the human heart. Only of that way there is possibility to understand each other the divine designs.
