Group Study:
Esoteric Healing.
JC: In consideration of the monad we might briefly look
at its nature in a 5th ray analysis following the thread of
this analysis of esoteric healing in the manner that we have, as man being
an electrical unit remembering that man is in essence, the monad. It is
said "The causal body is a collection of permanent atoms, three in
all, enclosed in an envelope of mental essence". The focal points
of energy, or otherwise, points of energetic vibration and cohesive attraction
form the nucleus of any given sheath. A permanent atom then is a repository
of high energy and therefore vibration which in turn produces and is synonymous
with heat. Just as with Babbitt's atom so is a permanent atom a unit of
force and man an electrical unit. Particularly toward the finality of
its relative permanence is the increased heat used for the purposes of
destruction. We can see that there is life within each atom according
to its ray and it is this ray life, quality, colour and vibration which
produce the inherent heat which is indicative of its living essence and
makes possible the building of the sheaths.
It is of interest that the acquired life and experience
that is gathered in the lower permanent atoms is transmuted under `mass–energy
equivalence' formula e=mc2. We might reverse this formula as mc2=e for experiment, though there is no need to, noting that
outer plane activity via the five senses in space-time karmic force is
converted to energy or energetic consciousness, vibration, colour and
heat as symbol. All is energy and may be transformed or converted losing
nothing of the original gain and in fact acquires a heightened vibrational
intensity that was before not available. As with addition of energy there
is gain in mass, so with gain in mass or outer physical plane activity
and experience over the aeons so this gain produces additional energetic
intensity to the triadal life of the Monad. This is the 5th ray explanation
of Monadic gain that was lacking before lower threefold human
evolution.
Monadic gain acquired during lower way of human evolution:
Monadic gain [intensity of heat, quality of colour or
vibration] equals five senses squared [human evolution in time and space]
multiplied by causal permanent atoms and triadal permanent atoms plus
monadic synthesis.
From the above remarks
it will be seen that disease emerges into the physical body from the world
of the unseen, and from the use, or misuse, of the subtler forces on the
inner planes. It must be remembered, however,
that disease - as it expresses itself in man - can be generally regarded
as due to the following causes, and students would do well to have this
most carefully in mind as they ponder on these matters:
JC: Disease originates from the "world of the unseen"
and due to the use and misuse of the subtler forces contacted from the
inner planes. We will now consider some causes as laid out by DK as he
suggests that we bear them carefully in mind. We might recall that all
disease is governed by karma, d=3smdlc2 the "ancient law of evil sharing" of Law II.
Here we focus on the actual problems and types of disease which present
man with his fundamental sharing of this great law.
1. Individual disease, due
to interior conditions in a man's own equipment, to his mental state,
or to an emotional [49] condition which can produce serious ills. This
is inherited from the past.
2. Disease
inherent in humanity as a whole. There are certain diseases to
which all men are prone; the germs of these diseases are latent in the
physical vehicles of the majority of men, only awaiting predisposing conditions
in order to manifest. They might be regarded as group diseases.
JC: Individual disease is regarded as inherited from
the past and is due to man's karmic liability, his equipment mental and
emotional. Again DK places this number one due to the strongly emotional
orientation of the majority of mankind. He previously stated… "It may have interested you to see
that I place the ills of the etheric body in the second place and not
the first. The reason for this is that the group ills and diseases which
have fastened upon the race, work primarily through the etheric body and
find their way out into manifestation via the etheric bodies of all forms.
But I have placed them second, even though they are in the last
analysis the most numerous, owing to the fact that humanity cannot as
yet deal with [25] these en masse." It
seems appropriate to suggest that again he has placed group disease in
the second placement and for the reasons he has given. These group diseases
are also latent as germs in the physical body awaiting their awakening
when the right conditions are provided by the individual living circumstance,
daily hygiene and cleanliness. Also to be taken into account is the personal
predisposition to the state of the vitality of the etheric body and the
inherent disease within it as it works out into the physical body thus
possibly initiating the awakening of many of these dormant germs thus,
on a group scale causing much trouble. A distinction of these group origins
is that when it is of the etheric body it is indicated as being a psychological
origin and here it is definitely germs within the physical body. Both
are of group origin however.
3. Diseases which are, curiously enough, accidental. To these a man falls
heir when, for instance, he succumbs to some infectious or contagious
complaint.
Opportunistic infections
are infections caused by organisms that usually do not cause disease in
a person with a healthy immune system, but can affect people with a poorly
functioning or suppressed immune system. They need an "opportunity"
to infect a person. Wikipedia.
4.
Diseases inherent in the soil. Of these as yet but little is known.
The soil of our earth, however, is very ancient, and is impregnated with
disease germs which take their toll of the vegetable, animal and human
kingdoms, manifesting differently in each, yet being due basically to
the same causes.
5. Diseases
which are the difficulties of mysticism. These are the peculiar
ills and complaints which attack the disciples and aspirants of the world.
These can be traced in every case to the pouring in of energy through
centers which are not properly equipped, or adequately developed, to handle
the force.
JC: We are given these as a generalisation. There is
much disease in the soil and is of ancient origin and we have been given
Cancer as one of these. However today, micro organisms are recognised
as being prolific in the water, rock and earth of the planet to which
the vegetable, animal and human kingdoms succumb. Notably then, although
the manifestation of such disease in each of these kingdoms is different,
DK informs us that it is basically due to the same causes, which must
mean that the same micro organisms or germs are proved infectious to these
kingdoms equally but producing symptoms of differing effects in
each. This makes much sense of what may otherwise prove of great complexity.
Disciples and aspirants are prone in every case to the pouring in of energy
via inadequately developed and equipped centres of force. We might here
consider micro organisms and soil contamination noting also opportunistic
or accidental infection.
A micro organism (also spelt as micro
organism) or microbe is an organism that is microscopic (too small to
be seen by the human eye). The study of micro organisms is called microbiology.
Micro organisms can be bacteria, fungi, archaea or protists, but not viruses
and prions, which are generally classified as non-living. Micro-organisms
are generally single-celled or unicellular organisms; however, there are
exceptions as some unicellular protists are visible to the average human,
and some multicellular species are microscopic. Micro organisms live almost
everywhere on earth where there is liquid water, including hot springs
on the ocean floor and deep inside
rocks within the earth's crust. Micro organisms are critical to nutrient
recycling in ecosystems as they act as decomposers. As some micro organisms
can also fix nitrogen, they are an important part of the nitrogen cycle.
However, pathogenic microbes can invade other organisms and cause diseases
that kill millions of people every year.
A pathogen or infectious agent is
a biological agent that causes disease or illness to its host. The term
is most often used for agents that disrupt the normal physiology of a
multicellular animal or plant. However, pathogens can infect unicellular
organisms from all of the biological kingdoms. The term pathogen is derived
from the Greek "that which produces suffering." There are several
substrates and pathways where by pathogens can invade a host; the principal
pathways have different episodic time frames, but soil contamination has
the longest or most persistent potential for harbouring a pathogen. The
body contains many natural defences against some of the common pathogens
(such as Pneumocystis) in the form of the human immune system and by some
"helpful" bacteria present in the human body's normal flora.
However, if the immune system or "good" bacteria is damaged
in any way (such as by chemotherapy, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV),
or antibiotics being taken to kill other pathogens), pathogenic bacteria
that were being held at bay can proliferate and cause harm to the host.
Such cases are called opportunistic infections.

Moisture and darkness
foster disease as it emanates from and
is nourished by bodies from whence the life aspect has been drawn. EH 251. "denizens of moisture".
Teachings
: The destroyers, the germs of disease.
Bacilli, germs and microbes are but differentiated forms of astral matter
energized by prana or life.
JC: We are able to see a certain agreement between DK
and H in regards to the correspondence and origin of germs. In one regard
these watery elemental minute entities are "denizens of moisture"
and "differentiated forms of astral matter" which give us a
certain idea as to the close group nature of illnesses arising from DK's
second category of group etheric origins and germs within the physical
form itself. This was previously discussed and may be somewhat expanded
on again. To a great degree man creates his own germs by the very power
of his own impure mind and lack of magnetic purity. Germs originate in
the astral/etheric, solar plexus/sacral and base of spine levels and are
largely of group origin and also carried in the very form of the earthly
body just as the very soil of the earth holds micro organisms or germs
potent. The rays expressive of these centres are the 6th, 3rd
and 4th respectively although we should recall that it is today
the 7th ray that accounts for all germs in their entire group
formation and which makes their life tendency and potency today
apparently more virulent than at any previous time, perhaps being due
also to the organisation and directive properties of this ray. Further
to be considered is the fact that germs are the devourers and agents of
destruction under the office of the black lodge and therefore the lower
negative aspect of the 7th ray strongly pertaining to black
magic reigns at this time. There is room for much thought on this. Germs
also enter the planetary body via the planetary web from outside the earths
own atmosphere being drawn in from extra planetary regions. This accounts
for the term influenza or influence from other regions and has
its origins in 15th-century Italy
, where the
cause of the disease was ascribed to unfavorable astrological influences.
As "like breeds like",
the germs that reproduce their kind – by fissure
or division, multiply almost indefinitely the original germ brought into
existence by an Elemental which ensouls all that one class of germs
as an Elemental of a higher class ensouls a swarm of bees, or race of
other minute creations.
The starchy products which more than
all else are the material bases of the chemical action of fermentation
in the body, furnish a clue to the method by which the reversed action
of the ferments is accomplished. Such products are formed of dead, or
rather of inactive germs of life, but they remain inactive only so long
as they are isolated from other germs.
JC: We are given a tremendous indication as to the processes
of the stomach and the original nature of starch therein. Starchy products
are actually the conglomerate of inactive and residual germ organisms
which when brought together with other germs are then re awakened and
greatly multiplied to create another type or class of germ which actually
may develop according to karmic necessity and actively produce the required
form of disease under karmic law necessary to its fulfilment of its "definite
duty of office". In fact, DK's reference to germs as fulfilling a
definite "duty of office" points accurately to its karmic duty
and modus operandi. This should bring definitely to mind that "all
disease" is governed by karma.
"They are agents of destruction and are performing
a definite
office and duty in the great scheme of things at present." DK.
Once brought into action with another
class of active germs, they spring into life again in other forms, somewhat
as a butterfly emerges from a chrysalis, leaving a refuse which returns
to protoplasmic substance ; but such inactive
germs frequently prove the Nemesis of mankind as far as punishment for
certain sins of the body is concerned.
Attraction and Repulsion form the
particular trinity that rules the healing power. The process of healing
is accomplished by raising the vibrations of the body by the imparting
of this special force which impels the atoms to attract the life energy
and repulse the diseased germs. Hilarion.
JC: Again, we are clearly being familiarised with the
law of karma, attraction and repulsion pertaining to the activity of germs.
We should note that all healing is due to the raising of the vibration
or frequency of vibration of the area of disease and atoms therein. This
we should consider to apply to all methods of healing from the medicinal
to energetic importation of the soul. Where frequency of vibration falls
below the intended rate, disease enters into the equation.
The method whereby these astral forces
(which are, as we know, pre-eminently the determining life forces for
the majority of men at this time) work out into manifestation is a relatively
simple matter. In the astral vehicle of expression
there are, as you may realize, the correspondences of the seven centers
in the etheric body. These are essentially the seven major focal
points of force, and each of them is expressive of one of the seven ray
energies. Let me first of all make clear which centers express these seven
ray types: [50]
