What really heals – the herb, or the power behind it? <blockquote>"A part has no meaning of its own, only in relation to the whole to which it belongs."</blockquote> <img src="/api/media/uploads/chapter-17-cover.webp" alt="Chapter Q – Spiritual Healing" /> Sub-chapters: Spiritual healing · Complete healing <h2>Spiritual healing</h2> In the film we saw several scenes in which the fighters of Zion engage in various kinds of medicine. When Neo awakens in the "world of truth," he undergoes a series of strengthening treatments to set him on legs he has never felt and to let him see with eyes he has never used. The fighters of Zion have learned to know the human body and the physical expression of the different states of consciousness a person may be in. Beyond these small touches, the writers of the film did not deal with the question of healing inside or outside the "Matrix." We will allow ourselves to touch on it, based on other understandings we acquired in earlier chapters – "The essence" and "The structure of the worlds." In those chapters we discovered that the world (the Matrix) is built in the form of a pyramid. There is a cascade of programs going out from the "Source," with each program programming the programs below it, until the picture of the imaginary world of the Matrix is produced. In the language of Kabbalah this structure is described as "the cascading of the worlds." In fact, everything we see with our eyes in the world is produced by invisible spiritual forces (programs) that sustain it and operate it at every given moment. All the forces present in substances, in plants, in animals, do not come from them themselves; their source is in the spiritual forces appointed over them (the programs that operate them), or in the language of the Sages of Zion – the angels. ("Every blade of grass has an angel (a star) that strikes it and says to it: grow.") Each angel receives its power and qualities from the angel standing above it (which programmed it), and so on and on, until all of them ultimately receive from the "Source." When a person is sick and goes to a doctor who gives him a certain drug or plant, the intention is to use the active substance found in that plant. From where did this plant receive this substance? Of course – from the angel standing above it, which pours its vitality and qualities into it. From where did that angel receive these qualities? From the angel above it, and so on up to the "Source." So that sick person has three options. The first: to go to great lengths to find the specific plant in which the active substance he needs is found. The second, if he has the knowledge and ability: to make contact with the angel from which that power came, or with one of the angels above it. The third and best of all: to bypass all the intermediate agents and receive it directly from the "Source." In the biblical story of the promise of Isaac to Abraham our father, Abraham is commanded: "Go out and count the stars… so shall your seed be." The Sages of Zion tell us that here the "Source" taught Abraham the way to get out from under the rule of the stars (sefor, count, is related to sfar, border): put a limit on the rule of the stars (constellations, angels) over you. You have the ability and the duty to rise and connect directly to the "Source," and from there to draw everything you need. "So shall your seed be" – all your descendants, too, will have this power to rise above the worlds of the angels, to bypass the agents and to connect directly to Me. When a fighter of Zion learns this technique of connection, using the right codes of the programming language (prayer), he channels the remedies he needs into the bread he eats and the water he drinks. "And you shall serve the Lord with all your heart (the service of the heart = prayer), and I will bless your bread and your water, and I will remove sickness from your midst." See sources This is the most exalted form of healing. But what can be done? Not all of us know how to use the programming language in this way, and not all of us have the ability to connect and draw our needs directly from the Source in this way. So we have no choice but to turn also to physical plants and physical remedies, in which the active substances we lack are found. This recognition of our limitation should stand before our eyes when we use physical remedies, to remind us that these remedies do not bring us to complete healing. Where, then, is that complete healing? <video controls="controls" height="235" id="video201351014595" width="353" poster="/api/media/uploads/poster-3538-mweovnho.jpg" preload="none"><source src="https://sham.shidur.net/3538roni.mp4 " type="video/mp4" />Your browser doesn't support video.

This rule says that "a part has no meaning in itself, but only in relation to the whole to which it belongs." That is, a headache does not stand on its own; it has deep and hidden roots, which stem from the relations between the forces acting in the whole body. In Chinese medicine these roots are called patterns of whole-body imbalance, from which branch out various external symptoms. The guideline is: don't look only at the symptom. True, it stands out, and hurts, and is red – but it is only a small part of the picture, the tip of an iceberg, and it has no meaning in itself. If you fight only it, you will get nowhere. You must search for and understand the whole to which it belongs – understand the relationship between it, the part, and the whole from which it derives. The more the healer can open up the picture and connect the part to a more comprehensive whole, the more complete and true his treatment will be. But in order to open the picture to the most all-embracing whole, in order to understand in depth the relationship between the part and the whole, the most obvious question must be asked: what caused the whole to divide into parts? If we understand why parts exist – why there is a "seemingly" separate reality in our world of phenomena, what caused the breaking of the whole into its parts – then we will understand how to join the parts back together and create wholeness again: create health. This question takes both therapist and patient to the implication of that same basic rule for their own personal existence. If a part has no meaning in itself, then I the therapist, you the patient, and everyone else also have no meaning in ourselves, except in understanding the connection and relationship between us and the whole that surrounds us. What is that connection? Who is that whole? What is that relationship? What caused the separation between the whole and me? Only understanding this relationship can bring me closer to complete health – to wholeness. This subject is, of course, too wide and great to be contained in a few sentences. The whole Jewish bookshelf tries to explore this relationship. But if we nevertheless try to touch it with the lightest touch, the Sages of Zion tell us that the infinite "Source," out of His good nature, wanted to do good, and for this purpose created man as the object of this goodness. He created man as a vessel with a lack, so that he could fill and be filled with all that infinite abundance his Creator wants to give him. The role of man, then, is to recognize his Creator's will to do good to him, and to prepare himself so that he can contain all that infinite abundance He wants to give him. The lacks and needs embedded in him are nothing but gates and doors through which he is meant to achieve connection with the One who is able to fill them. They were sent to him as an invitation to a relationship. Whoever does not know this, and thinks that his purpose in the world is simply to enjoy the feeling caused by the physical filling of these needs, simply misses the point – and requires the great Programmer to send him bigger lacks, in various forms. These blows and illnesses are meant to awaken him to the right recognition of the right way of being filled, which will bring him to connection and wholeness with his Maker. The role of illness is like a bumper – a vibrating dividing line meant to awaken the person who has strayed into the vanities of the "Matrix" and forgotten his role and destiny. He is sent a lack that is a little harder to fill – so that he will look for the One who fills, and not for what to fill with. The nature of body and soul shows that when a person loses his center point, he does not feel it. He begins to deviate, but as he deviates he continues to believe that he is still at the center – that he is fine; everyone else is a little crooked. The role of methods such as homeopathy is to give that person a small kick in the very direction toward which he has deviated, so that he will wake up and notice where he has arrived – and then gather strength to return to the balanced middle point. The body's falling into illness, too, is an application of the same logic. Whoever is caught in his blindness inside the Matrix – just as until the illness he was busy with the physical filling of his needs – thinks during the illness, too, that the solution lies in various physical remedies, and in raising their dosage when their effect stops. Matter, matter, matter. Physical, physical, physical. He does not understand that matter and the pleasures he draws from it are, after all, a low level compared to the purer spiritual pleasures and abundance that they want to give him, waiting for him to kindly open himself to them. Had he learned, while he was healthy, to combine the spiritual parts of his personality within his bodily pleasures – besides the supreme pleasure he would have drawn – he would have avoided the intensive lesson sent to him, of no choice, so that he would look and recognize his higher, spiritual sides and parts. All they are trying to do is teach him to truly enjoy: to enjoy in wholeness, to enjoy with the whole soul. A complete pleasure whose essence is connection, on every level, to the wellspring of creation – to the "Source." Translated from the Hebrew chapter "רפואה רוחנית" by Roni Ayalon-Hirsch.
