  A MAN SUFFERING FROM FUNCTIONAL PARALYSIS  


Someone told a man who was suffering from functional paralysis to make vivid picture of himself walking around in his office, touching the desk, answering the telephone , and doing all the things he ordinarily would do if he were healed . He explained to him that this mental visualization of perfect health would be accepted by his subconscious mind.


He threw himself into the role. He actually felt himself back in his office. He knew that he gives his subconscious mind something concrete and definite to work upon. His subconscious mind was the film upon which the visualization was impressed.


He continued this visualization discipline intensively for several weeks . Then, one day , the telephone rang at a time when everyone else was out. The telephone was twelve feet away from his bed . Nevertheless, he managed to answer it. His paralysis vanished from that hour on. The healing power of his mind had responded to his mental imagery and a healing followed.


The man had suffered from a mental block that prevented nerve impulse generated in the brain from reaching his legs. Therefore, he could not walk. When he shifted his attentions to the healing power within him, the power flowed through his focused attention, and he could walk again.


Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

His vocal cord felt paralyzed , unless. He stood backstage, already in costume , while perspiration poured down his face .In just moments he was supposed to go out on the stage and sing, before an eager audience of thousands.  Trembling, he said, I can't sing.They will all laugh at me.My career is finished.

                        ANIMAL MAGNETISM As you know , there are many varieties of healing. Franz Anton Mesmer(1734-1815) , an Austrian physician who practiced in Paris , discovered that by applying magnets to a diseased body , he could cure that disease miraculously . He also performed cures with various other pieces of glass and  metal . Later , he abandoned the use of these objects in favor of passing his hand over the patient's body . He claimed that the real source of his cures was what he called "animal magnetism" . He theorized that some mysterious magnetic substance was transmitted from the healer's hands to the patient. Mesmer lent his name to this method of testing disease  , which came to be called mesmerism . Today we know it as hypnotism . Other physicians , jealous of Mesmer's success , claimed that all his healing were due to suggestion and nothing else.
