[Christian Science by Mark Twain]@TWC D-Link bookChristian Science CHAPTER XV 45/77
These ideas are perfectly tangible and real to consciousness, and they have this advantage--they are eternal.
Mind and its thoughts comprise the whole of God, the universe, and of man.
Reason and revelation coincide with this statement, and support its proof every hour, for nothing is harmonious or eternal that is not spiritual: the realization of this will bring out objects from a higher source of thought; hence more beautiful and immortal. The fact of spiritualization produces results in striking contrast to the farce of materialization: the one produces the results of chastity and purity, the other the downward tendencies and earthward gravitation of sensualism and impurity. The exalting and healing effects of metaphysics show their fountain. Nothing in pathology has exceeded the application of metaphysics. Through mind alone we have prevented disease and preserved health.
In cases of chronic and acute diseases, in their severest forms, we have changed the secretions, renewed structure, and restored health; have elongated shortened limbs, relaxed rigid muscles, made cicatrized joints supple; restored carious bones to healthy conditions, renewed that which is termed the lost substance of the lungs; and restored healthy organizations where disease was organic instead of functional. MRS.
EDDY IN ERROR I feel almost sure that Mrs.Eddy's inspiration--works are getting out of repair.
