UNIVERSAL APPLICATION

  The vital energy
 individual is said to have life, to be, to exist. Even as the
individual is derived from-becomes-from the mating of
two individuals,
 vital force itself derived from an infinite source

2
      the ego

3
 religion was the first expression of thought to
formulate this vital concept of life.
 Bible: "And the Lord God... breathed into his nostrils the
breath of life; and man became a living soul." "Before
Abraham was, I am."

4
 So, what is the breath of God? It is the life and power of
God, given to man to animate him. The Hebrew word for
spirit is ruach, which means “wind, breath, air, spirit.”
The life of God lives on and on; the immaterial part of
man was designed to live eternally. The only question is
where will we live?

5
 Astronomy is a part of science; mathematics is an
essential component of astronomy. Astronomy and
mathematics, viewed in the light of the whole vision of
vital energy are essentially a partial proof of the
omnipresence of vital energy as being the moving
Energy, the activating Power, of the universe.

6
  As Logic deals with "the principles governing the
comparative and constructive faculties in the pursuit
and use of truth," let us apply this science to our
theorem, and reason this through to its natural
conclusions.
      

7
 physical, mental and spiritual well-being of our
patients.

8
 life is perpetuated under certain favorable conditions
of mating.
     

9
  That life is continuous

10
  Where there is vital force there is action, motion;
 continual motion,

 . We may reason, therefore, that since these great bodies

have regular motion and direction, they are impelled by
some force, some energy, which although it may not be
what we have come to call vital energy, is in degree
closely related to it.

11
    vital force is the most fundamental of all conditions
of the universe

12
    If we have no motion, no action, no direction,
without vital energy, it must be this energy which is
responsible for all growth and all development in all
spheres of existence.

13
  The privilege granted to human life is the right of
choice
 The degree of the infringement, either in an
individual or in his predecessors, determines the
degree of decay and its speed.

14
 (1) a correct choice (direction), and (2) aids to correct
the mistakes already made and to regain the normal
balance. Both these conditions are found in three
spheres, the physical, the mental, and the spiritual.

15
 On the spiritual place all those aids which foster the
growth and development of the spiritual life of man.
 On the mental plane, those things which foster sanity.

 On the physical plane we find those things which tend

to keep us healthy in body, such as suitable foods and
those things which we can adapt for better housing,
cleanliness, sanitation, and many other things.

16
 potentization

17
  fragments of that which composes the planet, earth,.

18
  We recognize the presence of vital energy in vegetable
growth, for it is evidenced in growth and movement in
the plant,
 by law the planets in their courses and influences the
winds and tides, influences the manner and periods of
growth of the individual plant, thus again tying what
we know to be a manifestation of life to the universal
energy.

19
 In the homeopathic method of preparing drugs for
medication, by releasing the energy therein through
potentization;
      We comprehend most easily the animation

20
 We believe that vital energy as we comprehend it is not
a mass power, but an infinite umber of egocentric
sparks.
 We believe also that material substance, mass power, in
medication, would completely overwhelm the individual
vital energy to complete annihilation or would subvert it
to eventual decay and death.
 We believe that the mathematical law of quantity
extends through all nature, and applies to all vital energy
in whatever form, and that if this is so, it is peculiarly
applicable when we are dealing with that infinitely
delicate balance of vital force in the individual. 21
 Let us look at this law of mathematics with that thought in
mind: THE QUANTITY OF ACTION NECESSARY TO
EFFECT ANY CHANGE IN NATURE IS THE LEAST
POSSIBLE; and, as Fincke added: THE DECISIVE
AMOUNT IS ALWAYS A MINIMUM, AN
INFINITESIMAL.
      If vital energy is the fundamental power, the motivating
factor of the universe, balance must be one expression of the
law. If the very planets are kept in their place through the
influence of vital energy, this must be an infinitely delicate
balance. We see the effects of balance all through nature and
natural expressions and therefore we realize that balance,
power, is one manifestation of the law      22
 earth
 see the effects of the imbalance of the individual.

23
 power of choice, which often influences his own dynamis
and the dynamis of those with whom he comes in contact.
 In other words, his very existence, since we so often see
the effects of the imbalance of the individual.
 In other words, his very existence is an expression of
vital energy, but he is also exposed to the influence of
the vital energy of others and the interplay of vital
energy and balance from many sources may imperil his
own balance.
 The resultant lack of balance in his own vital energy is
disorder that manifests itself in a train of symptoms of dis-
ease. 24
 Mathematics
 . Balance

 laws that apply to mathematics must be equally

applicable to every condition where balance is a
factor.

25
  All the elements and all forms of matter possess the
possibility of divisibility to an almost infinite degree.
 Iron

26
    It is a question whether matter itself, which we call at
times inert, does not manifest active properties; in
other words, is possessed by activity and motion. This
has been demonstrated in Madame Curie's
investigations of radioactive substances, and again
the far-reaching discoveries of Languin in his
demonstration of the activity within the atom of the
physical cells.
      

27
 The greater the divisibility of elements or matter, the
more they exhibit the possibility of permeability by the
vital energy; the energy being not dependent upon the
mass, but on the play or balance between the positive
and negative poles of the atom.
      Vital force is capable of three forms of action:
motion, direction, and balance. These manifestations of
energy are an integral part of any exhibition of vital
energy. Growth and development are directed motion,
and in the degree of their perfection do we find the
manifestation of balance.
28
  What do we mean vital energy?
      What is the influence of energy on growth and development?

      What is the effect of potentization on material substances?

      How is the energy inherent in plants released for their use in

remedies?
      State the mathematical law of least action.

      How does the law of least action apply to the administration

of homeopathic potentized remedies?
      What influence has divisibility upon matter?

      What three forms of action has vital force?
