On Ascertaining the Location of Congestion There
are three ways whereby the healer can ascertain the presence and the location of
congestion and any other form of difficulty-producing objective disease:
- There is, first of all, clairvoyance which enables the healer to see visually where the
difficulty lies. This form of diagnosis is not always accurate and can be
"colored" by conditions present in the healer himself.
- There is a form of direct perception, a process of "clear knowing," which is a
soul faculty and infallible, once a person has been rightly trained in its use. It is a
blend of mental and spiritual perception and is definite knowledge, or an intuition, if
you like, which enables the healer unerringly to put his finger on the place of difficulty
and to know its cause, its effect and its end. [309]
- There is also a more physical method, which is based on sensitivity in the lower nature,
which enables the healer to register in his own body the same difficulty of which the
patient is aware. This is called "occult transference" and should only be
employed by those who know how to absorb and to dissipate. In this case, the healer can
also feel the cause of the disease through the pouring in of energy to the etheric
counterpart of the physical plane disease, or as an extreme emotionalism or sensitive
response in the astral counterpart.
