Causes and Effects

greater energies than these in any universe. Knowledge which is based on the mind's action and experience is ever a babe [baby] before these exalted realities.

When such a course has been found through God's Grace, devotion to Him and adherence to genuine principles, then such a life is blessed in every breath of its existence. Faith moves mountains of obstacles from the Path of such a blessed soul every day of his life. He may suffer, but it is in love and devotion and the consciousness is not ensnared by these end products of old debts and effects of previous actions.

Life is just. Indebtedness must be paid, otherwise the universe would be unbalanced by causes without effects, which would nullify the very purpose of creation. The soul is placed here to learn through experience and that would not be possible in a world without cause and effect. Pleasure is followed by pain and pain is followed by pleasure - in one form or another, according to the law of compensation.

Summary of Basic Principles in the Use of Polarity Technique

Polarity Therapy and action deals not merely with the gross anatomy and physiology but with the fine energy currents in the body, where the root causes of the dis-ease [disease] or disturbance may be found and treated.

These five separate currents which make a complete circuit on each half of the body, flowing near the surface, from the head to the five fingers and to the five toes, are sensory currents. See charts 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 of book II. These flow in a straight line and can be treated with good results, especially at their terminating poles, as powerful sensory reactions for relief of stagnant sensory energy blocks.

These five sensory currents themselves do not cross over, so as not to mix sensory impressions. But, for best results in therapy, they are used as bipolar contacts - either from top to bottom, or reverse, or from side to side, depending on the direction of flow of the currents treated.

Also, excellent results can be obtained by a contact with the finger and thumb of one hand on the toe of one foot of the patient, and with the other contact on the corresponding joint and toe of the patient's other foot. The doctor stands at the foot end of the patient, firmly holds and gently pulls at the point of contact at the same time. This polarizes the current of one side with the other side and elicits quick and favorable responses from the corresponding reflexes.

The same can be done with the fingers on each hand of the patient, for polarizing the neuter [neutral] pole in the extremeties [extremities]. When the doctor stands at the head of the patient, similar response may be elicited through the positive pole by making contacts opposite to each other - from side to side or from the front to the back or diagonally - anywhere on the head, depending upon the reflex that is to be reached and relieved.

These bipolar contacts are very effective - from the feet, up or from the head, down - as they link both sides or anterior and posterior reflexes depending upon the type of contact, as illustrated in the charts.

All deep currents cross over in every field, as shown in chart No. 1 in this book and
