Body and SoulSeptember 2008

Abraham Turull

Jesus enters the temple and speaks the parable “In my father’s house there

are many mansions” he offers proof of his divinity, “Destroy this temple, and

in three days I will raise it up” Jesus is referring to his Resurrection.

John 2:19

Later, Jesus tell his disciples “The Body is the Temple of the

Soul”

The Great Debate

Science and Medicine argue; there is no evidence of Spirit, of life after death, therefore take care of the body. Compassion is limited to physical Charity.

Philosophers and religion argue, you must abstain from the pleasures of the flesh to keep the Spirit pure. Fanaticism and blind faith obstruct Compassion and weaken Charity.

Mortification: For hundreds of years Franciscan Monks

practice mortification, a form of severe physical punishment to purge their physical desires which they believed

compromised the morality of the Spirit.

1928 Spain

St. Francis of Aisis would remove his robes and roll in beds of roses, later he realizes that the purity of thought establishes the morality of the Spirit.

Josemaria Escriva, organizes Opus Dei a private society of the

Catholic Church that observes an exaggerated form of abstention

practiced by its members.

“Suppose that both body and soul are in perfect condition: What should you do to maintain the balance between their very differing aptitudes and needs?”

“Love your soul but also take care of the body, which is the instrument of the soul.”

The GospelChapter 17Pg232

Formation and Properties of the Perispirit

“In the perispirit the molecular transformation operates differently,

for the fluid preserves its imponderability and its ethereal qualities. The perispiritual and

carnal body have, then, their source in the same primitive element : both

are of matter, although under two different states of it.”

In spiritual awareness we are escorted to the “Cosmic Principal “ of this planet and allowed to select the essential energy that will later form our perispirit and body. We actively participate in every stage of our reincarnation.

The body is what it needs to be to in order to serve as a medium for Spiritual growth. Andre Luis, explains that “Spiritual Guides” from the “Ministry of Reincarnation,” inject DNA material into a specific sperm cell that will fertilize the egg in the womb and initiate the human embryo. Spiritual guides escort the incarnating spirit to the fetus and assist it to begin the incarnation process by projecting its energy through its perisprit to its new body.

The Spirit functions in energy waves at a sub-atomic levelThe Perispirit functions in electro-magnetic fields of energy at an atomic levelThe Body functions in electro-static -energy transmitted by neurons through bodily liquids at a molecular level

From Plasma – to Meta–

physical – to Biological.

The Peri-Spirit

Just as Spirits bring past experiences that are today’s moral challenges, the peri-spirit also brings past physical conditions.

After Jesus cures the Lepra he later tells his disciples, “the illness will return because it is part of his mind.” Jesus is referring to the Perispirit.

“Spiritual Cures” “Spiritism teaches us that the law of action

and reaction or cause and effect also applies to the body-soul relationship. The

World Health Organization, some years ago concluded that there are no diseases but

sick people. A sick body, in need of health is the result of a sick soul. Mental imbalances somaticize the body during the process of

reincarnation into the material world. Therefore, diseases are consequences

rather than causes. Conventional Medicine is treating the consequences of diseases,

mistaking consequences with causes.Luis Salazar

The missing happiness of our lives motivates us to seek clarification of our present state of confusion. Spiritual awareness reveals our need to transition, to change and grow. Spiritual evolution is the natural process through which we achieve our grace. Eventually we realize that we must surrender our rebellious nature to the universal laws of God's creation. If we knowingly continue to violate God’s Love we create a state of anxiety and guilt. Over time and across several incarnations we develop obsessive-compulsive-disorders and behaviors. These are the causes of our spiritual illness recorded and carried in our perispirit.

“The Chakras are thought to vitalize the physical body and to be associated with interactions of a physical, emotional, and mental nature.”“It is noted by many that there is a marked similarity between the positions and roles described for Chakras, and the positions and roles of the endocrine system”

Just as disease result from an imbalance in the molecular fields which are responsible for the functional harmony of the cells, health is fostered when the Divine current of energy flows regularly through the system, maintaining the cohesive functions of such particles.

Mirror Neurons

Mirror NeuronsWhen we feel happy we smile, this is our body language. Mirror Neurons are part of the Limbic Nervous System, they connect our emotional self to our physical self. Identical areas of the brain are equally active when we see others do what we do, this is to say that our Spirit projects our level of sympathy and empathy with others. When we see someone smile, we are inclined to smile with them. We are able to emotionally experience what others are physically doing by watching them. This is why the law of attraction is so important. Our Spiritual vibrations attract identical vibrations from others in our proximity. Disincarnate Spirits can also identify with similar patterns of behavior to their own. Positive to positive, negative to negative. Therefore, we feel inspired or depressed by the same energy we project and attract.

For The Spirit

You must be receptive to Divine thought which permeates everything and everybody, so that you may absorb it and put it into action.

Attitude

Attitudes express the sentiments and emotions that we apply to our thoughts and actions

When we neglect ourselves we neglect others, the Doctrine teaches us that we suffer from –Immature attitudes

Attitudes of Choice

“Attitude is your acceptance of the natural laws, or your rejection of the natural laws” Stuart Chase 1888

“I am convinced that life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.” Charles Swindoll 1934

Our “Attitude should be Gratitude”

Holistic

The idea of Holistic treatment is used as a mental health intervention. Treating the phobia of clients in isolation transitioned into a more effective form of intervention by applying treatment to all of the affected aspects in the clients life. Its intent is to avoid treating the parts of a puzzle, and focus on all of the puzzle.

The Spiritist Doctrine directs us to treat the body and soul as one integrated entity during each incarnation. Establish and maintain balance and harmony between the spirit and the body “Holistically.” This is “Inner Transformation.” In this way we gradually cure the illnesses we carry in the perispirit.

Events like these offer the world “The End of the

Begining, of a New Era.” Discarding the Mystical to embrace the

Natural .

“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind”

We should not care how much we Love, until they know how much we Love.
