Differences of Vibration
It is only by differences of vibration in this world substance, which we may now
venture to term electrons, that we are able to perceive a difference in objects around
us.
It is a matter of primary interest that the organs of the body should differ in this
way; for in them are electrons with their inherent electro-magnetic properties, upon
which the whole bodily machinery depends.
Within our bodies positive currents of energy flow from above downward; for
manifestly the remainder of the body is governed by the head.
The electrons of the head must consequently be arranged as in a magnet—the
positive pole above, the negative below—and they must be always connected with
their opposite pole, because the strength and the nature of a magnet depend entirely
upon such connection. Thus our heads, under normal conditions, are cool, and our
feet warm, so long as positive electro-magnetic force flows from above downward.
In most men of the present day, on the contrary, a condition usually exists the exact
opposite of that common to normal healthy individuals.
A sense of well-being prevails in the body only so long as the electrons are in
sympathetic contact with their opposite poles, and, because by this means they
increase and extend their forces reciprocally, there exists also throughout the entire
body a feeling of physical strength.
Life upon the earth is dependent, as we know, upon the power of the sun. Positive
electrical forces are displayed in sunlight, and we find that the electrical forces of
the soil furnish their complements. Electrical power is manifested by both the earth
and the sun—a fact unquestioned by those acquainted with observations made in
the field of radio-activity.
As a third factor, absolutely essential, I may mention the ocean, which I regard as
the storage battery that distributes the power.
Then mark the natural contrast between these mundane and solar forces—the one
of a nature warm and vibrating quickly, the other cold and more slow of vibration.
From this we may infer that we have before us an electrical opposition, a polarity;
and assuredly the electrical forces of the earth are those which are negative, since
they vibrate more slowly and yield to control, while those of the sun are, on the
contrary, positive, since they possess the higher capacity for vibration and dominate
the electrical forces of the earth.
We may assert, further, that the forces of the earth are electrical, whilst those of the
sun are magnetic. In support of this assertion the proof may be advanced that a
magnet can raise a heavier load after lying in the sunlight; for the close affinity,
between magnetism and sunlight are, in this way incontestably demonstrated.
The interchange of these principles underlies all mundane activity and existence,
and upon its cessation life would wholly disappear from the planet.
The various organs of the body, like everything else, fall under the immediate
influence of this interchange of polar forces. The same electric or electro-magnetic
opposition exists therein as are elsewhere apparent in nature and, for evidence of
the same we have not far to seek.
The phenomena occurring in electrolysis—the science of chemical decomposition
by galvanic action—are well known.
When a current of electricity passes through a fluid capable of decomposition the
acids gather about the positive pole and the alkalies about the negative pole. We
thus detect the exercise of separate activities on the part of the positive and
negative electrical forces,—their polarization,—when we notice that alkalies and
acids separate upon the application of electrical forces.
Similar conditions exist in our bodies.
They occur in the mucous and serous membranes; for the serous secretions react
acid, the mucous ones, alkaline.
The contrast, in anatomical structure, between the mucous and the serous
membranes is due to the fact that they line the various organs, respectively, within
and without. It also indicates an opposition in their electro-magnetic forces.
