Healing Sickness With Spiritual Force · Sri Aurobindo Studies

• 0:01
  An individual reported an experience which at the time was
• 0:05
  unique to him. He was suddenly attacked by a
• 0:09
  virulent disease and collapsed on the floor.
• 0:12
  He was carried off to another room in the facility where
• 0:15
  various individuals tried to figure out what happened to him
• 0:20
  and what to do about it. After he revived, he reported
• 0:24
  that he had been outside his body, up at ceiling level,
• 0:29
  looking down on it, lying on the floor with the individuals
• 0:32
  around him trying to revive him as a new experience and without
• 0:37
  any formal training. He did not know how to direct
• 0:41
  the force to cure the attack of illness, but he was able to
• 0:45
  consciously observe the entire proceeding.
• 0:49
  After being revived, he wound up bedridden for some time with a
• 0:53
  serious case of amoebic dysentery brought on by the
• 0:57
  weakening of his vital envelope through a case of sunstroke he
• 1:01
  experienced just a few days earlier during a visit to
• 1:05
  Oroville, back before it was forested and shaded.
• 1:10
  It was only later, much later, that he was able to learn about
• 1:15
  the technique the mother describes here.
• 1:19
  The mother observes quote. I have known some truly
• 1:23
  extraordinary instances. If you can at the moment wait,
• 1:28
  take an example which is quite concrete sunstroke.
• 1:33
  This upsets you considerably. It is one of the things which
• 1:37
  makes you most I'll a sunstroke upsets everything.
• 1:41
  It disturbs the inner functions. It generally causes a congestion
• 1:46
  in the head and very high fever. So if this has happened, if it
• 1:52
  has succeeded in getting through the protection and entering you,
• 1:56
  well, if you can just go into a quiet place, stretch yourself
• 2:01
  out flat, go out of your body naturally, you must learn this.
• 2:06
  There are people who do this spontaneously.
• 2:10
  For others, a long discipline is necessary.
• 2:13
  Go out of your body, remain above in a way to be able to see
• 2:17
  the body. You know this phenomenon, seeing
• 2:20
  one's body when one is outside. This can be done at will, going
• 2:25
  out of one's body and remaining just above it.
• 2:28
  The body is stretched out on a bed, a bench, on the ground,
• 2:33
  anywhere you are stretched just above it.
• 2:36
  And from there, consciously you pull the force from above.
• 2:42
  And if you are used to doing it, if your aspiration is strong
• 2:46
  enough, you get the answer. And then from there, taking care
• 2:51
  not to re enter your body, you begin to push these forces into
• 2:56
  the body like that regularly until you see the body receiving
• 3:01
  them. For the first few moments they
• 3:04
  don't enter because the body is quite upset by the illness.
• 3:08
  It is not receptive, it is curled up.
• 3:12
  You push them gently, gently, quietly, without nervousness,
• 3:18
  very peacefully into the body. But you must not be disturbed by
• 3:24
  anyone. If someone comes along, sees you
• 3:27
  stretched out and shakes you, it is extremely dangerous.
• 3:33
  You must do this in quiet conditions.
• 3:35
  Ask people not to disturb you, or better, shut yourself up
• 3:41
  where they can't disturb you. But you can concentrate slowly.
• 3:47
  This takes more or less time, 10 minutes, half an hour, one hour,
• 3:52
  2 hours. It depends upon the seriousness
• 3:55
  of the disorder, which is set in slowly from above.
• 4:01
  You concentrate the force until you see that the body is
• 4:05
  receiving, that the force is entering.
• 4:08
  The disorder is being set right and there is a relaxation in the
• 4:13
  body itself. Once that is done, you can get
• 4:17
  back and you are cured. This has been done for a
• 4:20
  sunstroke, which is a fairly violent thing, and also for
• 4:24
  typhoid fever and many other illnesses, As for instance for a
• 4:30
  liver which was suddenly upset somehow, not due to indigestion,
• 4:35
  but a liver which doesn't function properly for the
• 4:38
  moment. It may also be cured in the same
• 4:41
  way. There was a case of cholera
• 4:44
  which was healed like that. The cholera had just been
• 4:48
  caught, had entered, but was not yet lodged.
• 4:52
  It was completely cured. Consequently, when I say that if
• 4:57
  one masters the spiritual force and knows how to use it, there
• 5:01
  is no malady which cannot be cured, I don't say it just like
• 5:06
  that in the air. It is said from experience with
• 5:09
  the thing. Of course, you will say you
• 5:12
  don't know how to go out of the body, draw the force,
• 5:15
  concentrate it, have all this mastery.
• 5:19
  It is not very frequent, but it is not impossible.
• 5:25
  And 1 can be sure that if one is helped, in fact, there's a much
• 5:29
  easier method, it is to call for help.
• 5:34
  But the condition in every case, in every case, whether one does
• 5:38
  it oneself and depending only on oneself, or whether one does it
• 5:44
  by asking someone to do it for one, The first condition not to
• 5:49
  fear and to be calm. If you begin to boil and get
• 5:55
  fidgety in your body, it is finished.
• 5:58
  You can do nothing for everything, to live the
• 6:03
  spiritual life, heal sickness, for everything one must be calm.
