MAGNETISM
There is another school of Christian scientists who say that there is no such thing as matter and they impart a knowledge to the people which affects the nature of the soul. Thus they do an injury to the soul nature by simply doing a good to the physical orture, and thus instead of discarding the evil or throwing it away, the seed itself not having been removed, the disease will take its course either in that or some other plane of existence. The impression of things exists, and nothing will do away with it. Among desires hunger for example, is not felt by many persons while they live on a plane above the material plane, -that is, while think. But when they cease thinking and go to work on the physical plane they must feel hunger just as any one else does. The best course would be to impart right knowledge of laws of nature telling the patient that his desease does exist, but that his soul ought not to be influenced by this. We generate the force of magnetism by every good thought and word, and this force remains with us froin our past life. It is added to every moment. The Karmic body is like a stream of water running onward, gethering to itself strength, till it reaches the end of its journey, Tk is, since this Karmic body is the sum of our past acts and thoughts, we can change our Karma,
How can we preserve this magnetic force, and how do we waste it ? Every effort made by the soul living in the body, whether made on the physical or mental
