Healing Affirmations 치유의 확언 - 파라마한사 요가난다

1.  Why Affirmations Work
1-2) The God-given Power of Man

Nothing is greater than Cosmic Consciousness, or God.  His power far surpasses that of the human mind.  
Seek His aid alone.  

But this counsel does not mean that you should make yourself passive, inert, or credulous;  or that
you should minimize the power of your own mind.  The Lord helps those who help themselves.  

He gave you will power, concentration, faith, reason, and common sense to use when trying to rid
yourself of bodily and mental afflictions; you should employ all those powers while simultaneously
appealing to Him.

As you utter prayers or affirmations, always believe that you are using your own but God-given
powers to heal yourself or others.  

Ask His aid; but realize that you yourself, as His beloved child, are employing His gifts of will, emotion,
and reason to solve all difficult problems of life.

A balance should be struck between the medieval idea of wholly depending on God and the modern
way of sole reliance on ego.


1-3) Use of Will, Feeling, and Reason

As one uses different affirmations, his attitude of mind should change;  for example, will affirmations
should be accompanied by strong determinations;  feeling affirmations by devotion;  reason affirmations
by clear understanding.

When healing others, select an affirmation that is suitable to the conative, imaginative, emotional, or
thoughtful temperament of your patient.

In all affirmations, intensity of attention comes first, but continuity and repetition mean a great deal, too.  
Impregnate your affirmations with devotion, will, and faith, intensely and repeatedly, unmindful of the
results, which will come naturally as the fruit of your labors.

During the physical curing process, the attention should be not on the disease,  lest one’s faith be
dampened, but on the infinite powers of the mind.  

During mental overcoming of fear, anger, bad habits, and so on, one’s concentration should be on
the opposite quality;  that is, the cure for fear is the consciousness of bravery;  for anger, peace;
for weakness, strength;  for sickness, health.
