Expose the body to certain temperatures, and belief 386:6 says that you may catch cold and have catarrh; but no such result occurs without mind to demand it and produce it. So long as mortals declare 386:9 that certain states of the atmosphere produce catarrh, fever, rheumatism, or consumption, those effects will follow, - not because of the climate, but on account of 386:12 the belief. The author has in too many instances healed disease through the action of Truth on the minds of mor- tals, and the corresponding effects of Truth on the body, 386:15 not to know that this is so. Erroneous despatch A blundering despatch, mistakenly announcing the death of a friend, occasions the same grief that the friend's 386:18 real death would bring. You think that your anguish is occasioned by your loss. Another despatch, correcting the mistake, heals your grief, and 386:21 you learn that your suffering was merely the result of your belief. Thus it is with all sorrow, sickness, and death. You will learn at length that there is no cause 386:24 for grief, and divine wisdom will then be understood. Error, not Truth, produces all the suffering on earth. Mourning causeless If a Christian Scientist had said, while you were labor- 386:27 ing under the influence of the belief of grief, "Your sor- row is without cause," you would not have understood him, although the correctness of 386:30 the assertion might afterwards be proved to you. So, when our friends pass from our sight and we lament, that lamentation is needless and causeless. We shall 387:1 perceive this to be true when we grow into the under- standing of Life, and know that there is no death. Mind heals brain-disease 387:3 Because mortal mind is kept active, must it pay the penalty in a softened brain? Who dares to say that actual Mind can be overworked? When we reach 387:6 our limits of mental endurance, we conclude that intellectual labor has been carried sufficiently far; but when we realize that immortal Mind is ever active, 387:9 and that spiritual energies can neither wear out nor can so-called material law trespass upon God-given powers and resources, we are able to rest in Truth, refreshed by 387:12 the assurances of immortality, opposed to mortality.
