  Medical researchers tell us that bacteria that can cause various
• 0:04
  disease conditions are always present in our environment to
• 0:08
  some degree, including within our bodies.
• 0:12
  Yet for the most part, we do not become ill or remain I'll all
• 0:17
  the time. The bacteria may be in a
• 0:19
  diffused or weak form, or our various immune system defenses
• 0:25
  reject their attempt to overpower our system in a way
• 0:28
  that creates an active illness. In some cases, we may experience
• 0:33
  a feeling of physical pressure of some sort and then exercise.
• 0:37
  A mental will create an affirmation of health or seek
• 0:42
  out some form of external support to avoid or reduce the
• 0:46
  onset, intensity or length of any illness.
• 0:52
  In many cases, the subconscient raises a vibrational response to
• 0:56
  the activity of the agent trying to disrupt or gain control over
• 1:01
  the physical body and thus opens up a type of correspondence
• 1:06
  which allows the vibration to take hold and the bacteria
• 1:10
  thereby to proliferate and increase their intensity.
• 1:15
  Vibrational patterns at the mental, vital and physical level
• 1:20
  are likewise always active in the environment.
• 1:24
  If an individual is receptive to any of these vibrations, they
• 1:28
  take root in the being at whatever level they are active,
• 1:32
  whether in the mind, the vital being, or the physical.
• 1:37
  As we see, in the process of physical illness, it is possible
• 1:41
  for any part of the being to actively reject vibrations and
• 1:46
  thereby prevent their taking hold.
• 1:49
  The various parts of the being are not always in agreement with
• 1:52
  each other, so the mind may reject something that the vital
• 1:56
  still desires or the physical craves, and thus part of the
• 2:02
  being is creating a receptive opening for that vibration, even
• 2:06
  if another part is clearly against it.
• 2:10
  It is only after all parts of the being have refused
• 2:13
  admittance to these vibrations and their influence that the
• 2:17
  being can be considered totally clear.
• 2:20
  And even then these universal forces try to reinfect the being
• 2:24
  at some level and thereby to create a starting point for a
• 2:29
  full blown expression, Sri Aurobindo notes quote.
• 2:35
  As for the things in our nature that are thrown away from us by
• 2:38
  rejection but come back, it depends on where you throw them.
• 2:43
  Very often there is a sort of procedure about it.
• 2:46
  The mind rejects its mentalities, the vital, its
• 2:49
  vitalities, the physical, its physicalities.
• 2:53
  These usually go back into the corresponding domain of general
• 2:57
  nature. It all stays at first, when that
• 3:00
  happens in the environmental consciousness which we carry
• 3:03
  about with us, by which we communicate with the outside
• 3:07
  nature, and often it persistently rushes back from
• 3:11
  there until it is so absolutely rejected or thrown far away, as
• 3:17
  it were, that it cannot return upon us anymore.
• 3:22
  But when what the thinking and willing mind rejects is strongly
• 3:25
  supported by the vital, it leaves the mind indeed, but
• 3:29
  sinks down into the vital, rages there, and tries to rush up
• 3:34
  again and reoccupy the mind and compel or capture our mental
• 3:39
  acceptance. When the higher vital too the
• 3:43
  heart, or the larger vital dynamis reject it, it sings from
• 3:47
  there and takes refuge in the lower vital, with its mass of
• 3:51
  small current movements that make up our daily littleness.
• 3:55
  When the lower vital too rejects it, it sinks into the physical
• 3:59
  consciousness and tries to stick by inertia or mechanical
• 4:04
  repetition, Rejected even. From there it goes into the
• 4:09
  subconscious and comes up in dreams, in passivity, in
• 4:14
  extreme. Thomas the inconsiant is the
• 4:18
  last resort of the ignorance. End Quote.
