The Universal Consciousness
Toward a Consciousness of Healing
In a world in which so many people still cling to superstitious beliefs in a personal divinity that is somehow separate and distinct from them where folks are willing to misinterpret useful metaphors, such as the notion of a “Blessed Trinity”, and imagine that such things literally exist where we recklessly give away our personal power and deny our divine heritage to allow ourselves to continue being victimised by institutional religions is it any wonder that we are a world in need of healing?
Almost every one of us has something in our lives right now that needs to be healed. It may be a physical dis-ease, a relationship issue, a past memory or other emotional disturbance. It may be that we are grieving a loss, dealing with unresolved anger, or facing some challenging fears. No matter what it is, we know that it’s imbalanced and recognise the need for healing.

The trouble is that we often mistake the reality of “healing” with the physical manifestation of “curing”. Even those who study more advanced philosophies, such as Religious Science, Buddhism and metaphysical healing often confuse these two completely different experiences.

That person may live out the rest of their lives with an attitude of bitterness over the suffering they experienced, or may choose to be victimised by the weakness that they experienced during a terrible and most difficult illness. By contrast, I have known many people who have cancer and AIDS, who have experienced remarkable healings, despite the fact that the manifestation of their particular dis-eases continues to progress. Some of those who were healed even died from the illnesses.
It’s difficult for those of us raised with a Western mentality and indoctrinated in traditional religious thought to grasp the idea that dis-ease is a reflection of the ego. In fact, for many of us, it’s difficult to comprehend the concept of the ego-self at all. Yet the saints and mystics understood that nothing in
