From the office of Dr. Laurence Magne, author of The Science of Being Well Home Study Course
January 20, 2007 (Press Release) --
Wallace D. Wattles wrote about his views on health in the Science of Being Well. This is a rare text that deals with innovative approaches to maintaining lifelong health.
Wallace D. Wattles states that you must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want; he explains that this is the only way to create permanent health.
You must have the picture of health firmly held in your mind and make a mental picture of it. Many people fail to create what they want because they have only a vague concept of the things they want to do, to have, or to become.
He adds for instance that it is not enough that you should have a general desire for wealth; everybody has that desire.
He adds this beautiful story that if you were going to send a message to a friend, you would not send the letters of the alphabet in their order, and let him construct the message for himself; nor would you take words at random from the dictionary. You would send a coherent sentence; one which meant something. When you try to impress your wants upon the Source of all creation, of which you are part, remember that it must be done by a coherent statement; you must know what you want, and be definite. You can never get rich, or start the creative power into action, by sending out unformed longings and vague desires.
Go over your desires and get a clear mental picture of it as you wish it to look when you get it.
That clear mental picture you must have continually in mind. For instance, some people may think that they need to meditate 8 hours a day, or do relaxation exercises. Wallace D. Wattles states that it is not necessary to take exercises in concentration, nor to set apart special times for prayer and affirmation, nor to "go into the silence," nor to do occult stunts of any kind. These things are well enough, but all you need is to know what you want, and to want it badly enough so that it will stay in your thoughts.
Spend as much of your leisure time as you can in contemplating your picture, but no one needs to take exercises to concentrate his mind on a thing which he really wants; it is the things you do not really care about which require effort to fix your attention upon them.
The methods are set forth in the Home Study Course so that you can follow an easy step-by-step method to achieve permanent health.
The more clear and definite you make your picture then, and the more you dwell upon it, bringing out all its delightful details, the stronger your desire will be; and the stronger your desire, the easier it will be to hold your mind fixed upon the picture of what you want.
Something more is necessary, however, than merely to see the picture clearly. If that is all you do, you are only a dreamer, and will have little or no power for accomplishment. Behind your clear vision must be the purpose to realize it; to bring it out in tangible expression.
And behind this purpose must be an invincible and unwavering FAITH that the thing is already yours; t
