“Pain is the megaphone with which God speaks to the
Deaf.” I use this phrase, heard in a movie,
now because it defines what I want to express in
this work quite well.
Pain is a warning or alarm signal
that some organ of the body that sends to the brain
by means of the nervous system so that the person
responds and puts in motion the necessary means
to correct the causative irregularity. This demonstrates
clearly the perfection of this wonderful machine
that is the human body.
I won't treat the topic as medical science because
nothing would come from my pen but ignorance and
what I do not know. I want to develop this as a
cause and effect that takes place that is produced
by another cause that comes from another effect
and then arrives at a limit in which the profane
world stands before a closed door to which no explanation
can be given. But from the esoteric point of view
that door can be opened and where it leads can be
seen.
Pain can be produced by accident, physical deficiency
or illness. In the case of accident it corresponds
to inadequate behavior of the bearer of the body
due to unawareness, ignorance or recklessness that
has taken its vehicle on an erroneous path that
has produced an incident. This is easy to understand
at first glance. Now we enter into more esoteric
depths we could give us many reasons and explanations
to understand it but we won't address them in this
work.
Physical deficiency may have been produced from
birth by illness, accident or defect. In the case
of a birth defect we must see it as a consequence
of something previous to birth. Since the study
of genetics can not give us explanations in all
cases, and although those who study esotericism
know that we chose in the spiritual plane and with
free will the tests that we will experience to learn
during our lives. From this it is logical to suppose
that the choice was made in a plane without selfishness,
with a view to the cosmic host and with the hope
of completing in the best way possible the mission
that was freely chosen in which our body is ideal
for the best attainment in our goal. Therefore the
state of the vehicle continues to be our responsibility
with its particular expression.
The case of illness is perhaps the one lived with
daily, it is the one that at the least causes us
the most fear since we believe that the accident
can be controlled more or less by wisdom and avoiding
risks; we either don’t have or have accepted
it and don't worry about it in a same way. However
when illness begins and it is necessarily painful
is when fear really enters us and we want a solution
because in our ignorance we are afraid to suffer
and die.
Illness is a deficiency or deterioration of a part
of our organism, taking place due to wrong use of
our body. It is quite easy to accept the visible
consequences of our acts, but when we don’t
know the reasons of this illness we don't understand
what is happening to us.
A healthy body is one in which all the components
are in balance; it includes the fair proportions
of liquids, salts, mineral etc. that are needed
by each part of our organism for its correct functioning.
When the balance is lost naturally the organism
and the part that most effected by the deficiency,
excess or defect of these proportions is the one
that manifests the illness. Everyone knows that
an imbalance causes not only physical deficiencies,
but also psychic states and the nervous alterations.
Due to lack of knowledge of the processes of nature
in our organism, or refusal to recognize defects
characteristic of our personality because doing
so produces anxiety, uneasiness, fear, etc. is harmful
to the mental balance and reflects as a consequence
in the corporal. A relaxed and harmonized mind translates
to a tranquil body for the correct function of the
organs. Envy, avarice, intolerance, selfishness,
lust etc. cause alterations to the power of the
organism to distribute the resources prepared and
produced. By this means one part is affected to
the detriment of another since the weaker organs
(whether from birth or continuous deterioration)
lower their necessary requirements to the minimum
to balance and then their own resources indicate
illness as a result of the deficiency or excess
beyond the fair proportions.
All that takes place in our
mind and we manifest in this plane is the result
of what we are.
Our reactions in daily life
are a reflection of our personality and balance
or lack of it, the control of that balance not only
depends on the conscious or unconscious knowledge
retained by our mundane personality, but also the
knowledge stored in our soul from previous incarnations.
Everything in creation is governed
by the law of Love, the harmonious union of each
and all of the beings that compose it. From that
perfect harmony the law arises in which each being
has a precise place in the vast Cosmic unity and
all, without exception, should collaborate so that
the balance is not harmed.
The purest expression of that Love, of that harmony,
is an expression of the spirit that manifests as
part of the Divine Essence, it is what gives life
to all that exists and controls it. It is the spiritual
force in man, the pursuit of this law of Love gives
us the behavior for perfect manifestation, for perfect
harmony, it gave to men as a privilege their free
will that is the power to decide. If the decision
made is correct the harmony of this spirit is realized
in man, if the decision is incorrect there is no
blame, only ignorance of reality.
We make decisions continually,
both conscious and unconscious, habits are an example
of them. Let us imagine for a moment the quantity
of decisions that we make in one minute, one hour,
in one day etc. and we will realize the times that
we may unbalance our minds and as a result our bodies.
Our organism is continually correcting the errors
that we make until we surpass the maximum or minimum
limit that said organism can support and it is then
that “our illness” takes place within
us.
Pain is the warning of an imbalance
of our organism, it is the warning that we have
exceeded the limits tolerated by Cosmic harmony,
the scream of God so that we will rectify this and
not hinder the harmony of creation.
An accident is an external collision with the current
of external life; illness is an inner collision
with our current inner life. In both cases the event
takes place by own decision to swim against the
current in which we disrupt the harmony of creation
Ignorance of the law, although it can be excused
at times, doesn't exempt us from its consequences.
The harmony of creation must
continue whether we are conscious of it or not.
If an organism has a condition of balanced health,
a balanced mind at peace, won’t it manifest
harmony and balance of body, soul and spirit?.
With my desire that balance
is manifest in us, I wish for peace to be with you.
