One of the healing principles is that the direction of cure is from within out. This is not only a principles of cure it is a principle behind all evolution and all spiritual growth.
The centre being the source or the radiating principle is something we see in the universe, in the solar system, in animals with a heart, in cells with a nucleus and even in the atom.
Let me give you some examples to illustrate. When the very old simple cells took a big step forward in evolution it happened through the manifestation of a nucleus within. A nucleus acts like a creative centre or a sun of genetic radiation if you like. A centre of the DNA code is radiating into action in the cell. This step made it possible for multicellular beings like most of the beings we thing about: plants, fungi, animals and humans to appear on earth.
Advanced plants that are able to create flowers can be divided into to kinds, those that sprout with one leave (monocots) and those that sprout with two leaves (dicots). The organization of the stems of the more advanced dicots are also following a central principle through the concentric distribution of vascular structures in the stem and branches.
When we move to animals a big step in evolution is from ectotherm to endotherm. The ectotherm animals are dependent on the temperature of the surroundings while the more advanced endotherm animals have an inner heat, the are creating their own body temperature from within radiating it through the circulation from the heart.
A big step in your personal evolution is when you stop to focus on the external environment as the causation or conditioning of your life and start to focus on processing it from within and even creating it from within.
In all this examples we see how the centre radiates or contains new qualities as life evolves to more and more advanced stages.
Let me just remind you that the centre and the top is the same thing. Imagine a cone from the side and the top becomes a sharp summit, but seen from the top it is just the centre of a circle, it is a question of perspective (See illustration below).
The same goes for us as our inner awareness is the summit of our expression. Our summit or our centre is the same thing. When ever you are challenged or are in trouble start by going within, or if you prefer the expression, climb the peak of your awareness. It represents the highest expression or your ideals.
If you find it difficult you can start by imagining a peak, and project yourself to the top. See yourself observing all from above, from the top, from a more detached place, a place of elevation.
You always have all the right answers within, that is the right place to start to look, not in a cave in the Far East or an old book, or even bothering a friend. There is no doubt a friend, a therapist, a guide or master can help and inspire you, but a true therapist of master will just facilitate your inner process.
Mastering your life to get true happiness or freedom starts with being independent from the external world, being free from it, not longing for anything in it, but finding your own centre, the joy in the source within, your inner summit, a state of deeper connection and peace.
From this centre your focus will be to radiate what you find within or at the top of your peak into the external. From here you radiate your inspiration, your virtues your love, light and will to manifests the highest you can into the external world. When you perceive life like that you will look at any challenge you find any trouble, as a question of which of your inner qualities or powers you need to cultivate to overcome, understand, transform or stand in the problem. And you will meet it with a kind of increased detachment as an external causation and an increased attachment as your own story.
Working like this all challenges becomes a gift a blessing to work with from within. In this way you let people make you stronger, wise and more loving.
Also when it comes to health the principle is the same. A healer, a homeopath or naturopath or other naturally based therapies will always see that a good cure mainly gives an inner strength, the core becomes stronger, the potential within manifests. The person becomes more himself. His highest, his best is manifesting. People get more beautiful and more peaceful. This is what you see when people choose a natural approach to healing.
Sometimes when things starts to cure from within, we see an external elimination, that can be perceived as an aggravation but it is just temporarily and a part of the cure.
This can be an eruption on the skin, increased secretions or even changes in urine, stool or perspiration as they carry with them the substances the body is eliminating.
Look at this illustration it can be seen both as the peak and the inner centre.
Healing, mastering and freedom all comes from within from the peak of your awareness.
