The Light

I had been studying the Art of Healing for a short while, and decided to try to alleviate a long-standing problem which had caused me much discomfort for the previous twenty years or so.

The problem was a varicose vein behind my left knee, so I decided to try the technique of "breathing in white light".

Laying comfortably on my back, I breathed deeply and slowly, imagining white light entering through the crown of my head as I breathed in. With each breath the white light travelled further down through my body and into my legs.

As the "breath" reached my left leg I sensed an explosion of white light in and around the leg. I was so surprised that I just lay there in astonishment for several minutes...

Since that day, about fifteen years ago, I have had no more problem with the varicose vein. The vein is still there, and clearly visible, but no longer causes any discomfort.
