The magnetic pass and
its
limitations
Four
are the main
causes that
limit the action
fluidic curator,
which is why not
always pass the
magnetic
achieves more in
a given case
the
fact that
another has been
achieved
In 1866 Allan
Kardec explained
that there is a
radical
difference
between the
healing mediums
and prescribing
mediums when he
the talked of
cures made by Mr
Henri Jacob.
While these
latter only
prescribe drugs,
the former heal
the sick through
the fluidic
action, in more
or less time,
without the use
of any medicine.
All the healing
power is in the
purified fluids
that serve as a
conductor. The
ability to heal,
says Kardec, is
inherent in the
medium, but the
exercise of this
faculty only
occurs with the
assistance of
spirits, where
it follows that
if the spirits
do not want, the
medium is as an
instrument
without a
musician and
does not
accomplish
anything. The
medium can
therefore
instantly lose
the power, which
excludes the
possibility of
making a
profession out
of it.
(Spiritist
Magazine for
1866, pp. 347
and 348.)
The codifier
lists, following
the study, cases
where the
fluidic action
is powerless to
promote healing.
The fluidic
action, he says,
can provide
sensitivity to
an organ,
dissolve and
remove a barrier
to movement and
perception, heal
a wound, because
in such cases
the fluid
becomes a real
therapeutic
agent, but
obviously it
cannot replace
the absence or
destruction of
an organ, which
would be a real
miracle. Thus,
the order
blindness by
ophthalmia or
cataract can be
restored but not
to those who had
no eyes.
There are
therefore
essentially
incurable
disease and
would be
illusory to
believe that
mediumistic
healing will rid
humanity of all
his ailments.
(Spiritist
Magazine for
1866, pp. 348
and 349.)
In summary, we
can say then,
based on the
spiritual
teachings, which
are the four
main causes that
limit the
fluidic healing
action:
-
Faith
or lack of
receptivity
of the
patient
-
Behaviour
of the
patient
-
The nature
of the
problem or
illness
-
The law of
cause and
effect.
The lack of
faith or
receptivity of
the patient
|
Martins Peralva
says, in his
extraordinary
“Studying
Mediumship”,
cap. XXVII,
there are
creatures that
offer
extraordinary
receptivity to
magnetic fluids.
They have
"strong and
sincere faith,
meditation and
respect the work
that is done in
their favour."
In the person of
faith, when
receiving the
pass (magnetic
healing), their
mind and heart
work like a
powerful magnet,
"attracting and
attaching
the healing
forces of and
cake." "Now with
the
non-believer,
the ironic and
the
|
hardened
heart - Peralva
states - the
phenomenon is of
course the
opposite." |
The explanation
of this fact is
given by the
instructor AULUS
in the following
passage in the
book “In the
Domains of
Mediumship”,
cap. 17, by
André Luiz:
"When Taking
notes, we began
to notice that
some patients
did not achieve
the slightest
improvement.
The magnetic
irradiation did
not penetrate
their organic
vehicle.
Registering the
phenomenon,
Hilário did not
hesitate to
question:
- Why?
- They lack the
state of trust -
the leader
explained.
- Will it then
be essential
that they
register the
faith to receive
the aid they
need?
- Ah! Yes. In
photography we
need of
photosensitive
plate to hold
the image, as in
electricity we
need a wire
sensitive to the
transmission of
light. In the
field of
spiritual
benefits, it is
essential that
the candidate
present a
certain
favourable
tension. This
tension stems
from faith. "
This is why the
patient's lack
of faith is one
of the factors
limiting the
fluidic healing
action, a fact
known from the
time of Jesus,
as seen in the
Gospel of Mark
(Chapter 6:3-6),
which Jesus
healed very few
patients in
Nazareth because
of unbelief of
his people. It
was Jesus
himself who,
surprised with
the disbelief of
his people
coined a phrase
that became
famous and known
even in our day:
"Nobody is a
prophet in his
land."
The behaviour of
the patient
The behaviour of
the patient ends
up contributing
to the
recurrence of
evil and often
prevents the
effectiveness of
fluidic healing
action, as has
been shown
repeatedly in
the Spiritists’
works. Allan
Kardec notes in
Spiritist
Magazine, 1865,
pp. 205 and 206,
the case of a
blind youth that
had been
collected by a
dedicated
spiritist was to
heal him through
magnetism,
because the
spirits had said
that his cure
was possible.
However the
treatment had no
positive result,
because the
patient, instead
of recognizing
the kindness of
his friend, had
only showed
ingratitude and
bad manners,
giving evidence
of the worst
character.
St. Louis,
spiritual leader
of the Spiritist
Society of
Paris, explained
that, in fact,
the boy's
illness was
curable.
Magnetization
practiced with a
spiritual zeal,
devotion and
perseverance
would certainly
succeed, and his
vision would
improve
significantly if
the wicked fluid
surrounding did
not oppose an
obstacle to the
penetration of
the good fluids.
St. Louis added:
"In the state in
which he was,
the magnetic
action was
powerless while
he does not get
rid of harmful
fluids, by his
willingness and
his improvement,
" A real change
by the boy
himself was the
only thing that
could make the
care of his
magnetic healer
effective,
otherwise, the
little bit of
light left would
be lost and new
trials would
affect him.
We can find
Three examples
of how the
behaviour of the
patient can be
the cause of
organic
disorders, and
even prevent a
cure, in the
book
“Missionaries of
light”, pp. 326
to 333, André
Luiz:
1) A woman
inside the
Spiritist Centre
carrying a dark
cloud around the
heart,
specifically in
the area of
mitral valve.
The mind, as we
know, can poison
itself with the
mental emissions
by those who
live around you.
The woman had
serious clashes
with her husband
that day. With
the healing
pass, the black
portion of the
field went up
and came to the
tissue surface;
spread it under
|
|
the
radiant
hand
along
the
epidermis.
If the
domestic
friction
continues,
the
morbid
effect
could
reflect
on the
somatic
body,
producing
a lesion
of
unforeseeable
consequences. |
2) In the same
Spiritist
Centre, the
group of healing
passes mediums
saw a frail man
so sore and that
his kidneys
seemed involved
in black crepe,
as the density
of the
wounding
mental matter
that
surrounded.
3) An elderly
gentleman,
treated then,
had the liver
and spleen in
huge imbalance,
but despite his
condition, the
healing pass
would
temporarily give
relief only for
one night and
not cure him.
Here is the
explanation of
the spiritual
mentor: "After
ten times of
complete relief,
we must leave it
to itself, until
it adopts new
resolution."
That man was
carrying a
temper less
considerate and
extremely
moody.
He engaged in
frequent
rivalries,
passionate
discussions, and
the empire of
his points of
view. Flare up
easily and
aroused anger
and sorrow on
those around
him. He should
therefore spend
some time by
himself. Who
knows if the
pain and
suffering would
achieve the
success that the
past treatments
could not cure?
The nature of
the problem or
illness
As we saw
initially,
Kardec says, in
the Spiritist
Magazine, 1866,
pp. 349, that
there are
essentially
incurable
diseases and
would be an
illusion to
believe that
mediumistic
healing will get
rid of all
humanity’s
diseases. Take
into account the
nature of the
problem or
illness of the
patient is
therefore
necessary to
propose to those
who deal with
people through
the fluidic
healing action.
Besides the case
mentioned in the
preamble -
absence or
destruction of
an organ - we
should bear in
mind that the
fluidic action
is incapable to
resolve the
disturbances
caused by the
guilty
conscience and
obsessive most
serious cases,
such as
subjugation, by
itself.
The case Mário
Silva, reported
by Andre Luiz in
his book
“Between Earth
and heaven”,
cap. 34, pp. 224
to 226,
illustrate this.
Mario, impressed
with the death
of the boy
Julius (who was
his former
companion of
adventures at
the War of
Paraguay),
retained a
distressing
guilt complex
and had his
thoughts on the
deceased, like a
fixed image set
in his
photographic
plate. Having
spent the day in
bed, under
extreme
disturbance, he
felt failed and
ashamed. André
Luiz asked
Clarêncio if he
could not help
by magnetic
passes, to which
the Minister
replied
assertive: "The
aid of this
nature sustains
his strength,
but does not
solve the
problem. Silva
should be
reached in the
mind for
improvements. He
requires renewed
ideas and at the
moment, Antonina
is the only
person capable
of lifting him
up more safely.
" He added:
"Everything in
life has its
reason for
being. Another
time, Silva, in
the personality
of Esteves,
joined to
Antonina, then
living as Lola
Ibarruri, to
drowned in
sinful pleasure,
with oversight
of the
obligations of
the best life.
Today, they
gathered in the
just recovery.
Those who join
in the levity
ahead of the
law, just take
on huge
commitments to
the necessary
readjustment.
Nobody cheats on
the principles
that rule
existence. "
The same
limitation of
fluidic action,
seen in
situations such
as Mario Silva,
records in the
cases of
oppression, as
reported in
Spiritist
Magazine, 1865,
pp. 4 to 18, Mr
Dombre, about
the seizures
experienced by
Laurent
Valentine, 13
years old.
The crises, in
addition to
repeat several
times a day,
were of such
violence that
five men had
difficulty in
keeping the boy
in bed. It was
case of
obsession of the
most serious
nature, produced
by the Spirit of
Germaine.
Valentine was
sensitive to the
treatment
received by Mr.
Dombre through
the imposition
of hands, but as
soon as he left,
the crises
returned. After
treatment by
magnetic passes
and skilful
instructions
given to
Germaine - the
Spirit who
troubled
Valentine - the
obsessive
process was over
and everything
explained.
On the fringes
of the case,
Kardec asks:
"What would have
served the
magnetism if the
cause remained?
" It was
necessary first
to destroy the
cause, before
attacking the
effects, or at
least act on
both
simultaneously,
teaches the
codifier,
showing that
magnetism alone
is unable to
heal the severe
obsessions,
understanding
that he repeated
on the final
edition d 'The
Gospel according
to Spiritism,
cap. 28, item
81.
The law of cause
and effect
The law of cause
and effect is
not, as many
think, an
innovation or an
invention of
Spiritism. Jesus
reported it on
several
occasions. In on
of them, the
Master taught
that each will
be given
according to
their works. In
another passage,
as the Gospel of
Matthew (Chapter
26:52), the
Lord, to ask
Peter save his
sword, said that
all those who
make use of the
sword would die
by the sword.
Allan Kardec
teaches in the
Spiritist
Magazine of
1868, pp. 85,
that most
diseases, like
all human
miseries, are
atonements of
the present or
the past, or
tests for the
future. In the
first case
arising from
debts, the
consequences
must be
sustained until
they were
recovered. It’s
obvious that
there can be no
cure for those
who have not
reached the end
of his trial.
The same
argument, which
by the way is
not any news to
scholars of the
Spiritism, had
been held the
previous year,
in Revue de
1867, pp. 190 to
193, the Spirit
of Quinemant,
which weaves in
an important
communication,
valuable
considerations
on the magnetism
and Spiritism.
After recalling
that the disease
is a material
effect and while
there is still a
cause, it will
produce new
morbid effects,
which disable
the cure, the
communicant
describes the
intimate
relationship
that exists
between the
Spiritism,
mediumship and
the magnetism,
which, developed
by Spiritism,
"is the key to
the vault of
moral and
material health
of future
humanity."
This is one of
the most common
reasons for
limitation of
magnetic healing
action, which
should always be
taken into
consideration by
people seeking
help in
Spiritist
houses. In
everything we
need patience,
and this is what
makes the
suffering person
continue until
the end, making
the part that
touches it,
without dismay,
certain that at
the right time
the goal will be
reached.
