Worry, fear, anger, jealousy and other emotional conditions are mental in their nature, and as such are being recognized as the hidden cause of a large part of all the physical suffering to which the flesh is heir. A normal healthy mind reflects itself in a healthy body, and conversely, an abnormal mental state expresses its corresponding condition in some physical condition. Thoughts are things! 8
The Spirit of the Universe cannot change; being ALL, there is nothing for It to change into. The Soul of the Universe must obey the Will of the Spirit. The body of the Universe cannot help changing! This is what constitutes the eternal activity of Spirit within Itself; the Spirit passing into form—creation eternally going on. 9
Body is a concrete manifestation, existing in time and space, for the purpose of furnishing a vehicle through which Life may express Itself. The physical Universe is the body of God; it is a manifestation in form of the Mind of God. It is that Creation which—while it may have beginnings and ends—of Itself neither begins nor ends. The manifestation of Spirit is necessary, if Spirit is to come into Self-Realization—hence, Body. 10
It is necessary that Soul and Body should exist because Spirit, without manifestation, would construct only a dream world, never coming to Self-Realization. In order to express, there must be a medium through which Spirit manifests and there must be a manifestation, hence, Soul and Body. The teaching of the great thinkers of all time is that we live in a threefold Universe of Spirit, Soul and Body—of Intelligence, Substance and Form. 11
In order that Nature may be coherent and come into self-expression, there must be an objective, a manifest world; but that which is physically outside of us still exists in the same medium in which we have our being, and the intelligence by which we perceive it is the same intelligence that created it. 12
Nature made a chemical laboratory within us to take care of our health. In a sense we might say that there are little intelligences within us acting as though they were little people, whose business it is to digest our food and assimilate it, to circulate our blood and get rid of its impurities. There are millions of these little people inside our bodies whose purpose it is to keep us physically fit. But there also are other little people who are not so kindly minded and they try to tear things down and disrupt the work of the good little people.
Every doctor knows that when he can get the good people inside working with him, things are going to come out all right. We break a bone and when it is set nature gets busy and all the good little people begin to knit the bone together again, and all the time they are causing the blood to circulate so there will be no infection.
One of the most popular psychologists in America told me that he once suffered from indigestion
