The mind of man is the motive power of the body. There is great sympathy existing between the mind and body, whatever affects the body must of necessity affect the mind; versus. Whatever affects the mind is sure to affect the body. The body is the house that the man lives in, if the house is damaged in any way the man proper which is the mind; through sympathy is sure to suffer from such injuries.
The power of the mind over the body both in disease and in health, is utterly beyond all the modern scientific conceptions. The mind has so long been clogged and hindered by narcotics and over stimulants, that it yet remains in its infancy. Every hindrance prevents the growth and development of the mind. The body may soon attain to its greatest development, but the mind never reaches its perfection in this sphere.
Age and experience fortifies and strengthens the mind, they give it greatness and power; every influence possible should be brought to bear upon the intellect to improve the mind and advance it.—The ages past have been more to hinder and to cramp the intellect, to hinder reason and progress than to favor it. But it must be understood now that mind is capable of getting and bringing information from the ulter-etherial worlds. Or of mind conversing with mind, even in separate continents.—Without Telephone, Telegraph, or Witch-craft. (Spiritualism.)
