TITLE: The two women

"Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years..."

From Mathew 9: 20-22

"There was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years..."

From Luke 13: 10-11

The contemporary people are asking themselves how are these cases related with them, where somewhere far in the past, there was a woman, who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years and another one, who was sick from a heavy disease for eighteen years and therefore she was bent over. Indeed, these cases are not directly relevant to us, but they are indirectly relevant. These diseases haven't disappeared to this day. Even today there are people, who suffer from bleeding, even today there are people, who are in the situation of the hunchbacked woman.

The interesting is, when talking about the two sick women, that their diseases are from different categories. The bleeding is an illness of the heart. Depending on the part of the human body that is bleeding, this is due to the disharmony of the human feelings and desires. The hunchback though is an illness of the mind. It is due to the disharmony of the human thoughts. When healing the two women Christ was acting parallelly in two different worlds: the world of the mind and the world of the heart. Therefore if some of the contemporary doctors don't succeed with their methods, this is due to the fact that when they treat their patients, they are acting in the same world. This is the reason why the diseases not only don't decrease, but they even increase day by day.

A German doctor once went to the States to study the different neurological diseases. When he studied thousands of different cases of neurological diseases, he gave them different names. But he felt surprised when every day after that he was figuring a new, unknown, different case of a neurological disease. Once he didn't know anymore what names to give to them, he named all the neurological diseases, more than thousand different cases with the common name americanichi. Today the people know so many manifestations of the sin, that after they gave them different names, they came to a condition where they couldn't name them with their names anymore and they called them with the common name of sin or americanichi. Today by the word sin we understand all types of painful conditions that attack the people.

The old people believed that the diseases are caused from the influence of bad spirits upon the people. Most people deny this statement and they look at the diseases as a result of some organic damage or some contagious microbes, that attack the human body. When they drag their attention on the different microbes, the scientists study their origin, conditions of development and so on. For example, the question arises about when the microbe of the plague appeared. Eight thousand years have passed since the time when the Bible was written. Therefore the plague was not familiar before that. It appeared after the original sin. Generally speaking the diseases and their causers - the microbes appear during distortions and unnatural human life. The bad life creates good conditions for the development of the diseases.

What causes the neurological diseases? According to some scientists, the neurological diseases are a result of a mighty brain action, of lots of knowledge. We deny this statement. According to us, the neurological diseases are due to great worries, concerns, distortions and so on. For example, someone works several years on a book, but once it meets the wide world, he starts worrying how it will be accepted, what judgment it will have, what the critics will say about him and so on. Once he worries and disturbs himself with these questions, his nerves will certainly get distorted. So, the fear of the critics makes the people nervous. If a high-class lady goes on a ball with her dress, a concert or a theater, her dress may provoke such critics, that her appearance with the same dress for a second time becomes impossible.

It is said in the verses that were read, that one of the women was sick for twelve years and the other one - for eighteen years. The numbers 12 and 18 define the categories to which the disease of each of the two women relates. The number 12 shows that the first woman was sick, because she has violated one of the Divine laws. She lived on earth, without turning her sight toward God. The number 12 contains the numbers 1 and 2. The one shows that she was living without God and the two - that she was living a sloppy life. When the disease came and kept her like this for 12 years, she started gathering the numbers 1 and 2 and she received the 3 - a number of balance. The plus, that represents the sign for gathering is Jesus and the three - the Son or Christ. The number 12 predicts to the sick woman that once she gathers 1+2 she will receive the three - the Son, the Man who will heal her. Christ brings the number 3 in Him. When you suffer from a disease, gather the days, the weeks, the months or the years of the disease and by the received summary you will recognize who will heal you - a doctor or Christ.

The second woman was sick for eighteen years. The number 8 shows a laxity of mind. It is noticed that the mind illnesses are harder to heal. They need a longer period of treatment.

The two sick women represent the illnesses and the disabilities of the contemporary society: the first one - the disabilities and the illnesses of the heart and the second one - the disabilities of the mind. The word woman according to the primary language means life. The woman, who was sick for twelve years means life, that doesn't comply with the Divine laws. Therefore every person who does not comply with these laws suffers from bleeding.

To reach the Divine laws, a man has to study the deeper sense of the Nature, which laws are related with our personal life, as well as with the life of our soul. The development of the soul is a personal process, that depends on the conditions given to the man. The nation among which you live is one of the conditions that were given to you. The nobler this nation is, the more favorable the conditions of your development are.

"There was a woman who had been subject to bleeding". To suffer from bleeding shows that the blood doesn't follow its determined way, but it bleeds outside. The blood is related with the desires. What is the gain of a person's desires, if they constantly pour outside? When the blood runs out, the person gradually gets weaker: his feet doesn't hold him up, the arms are weakening and he feels dizzy, his feelings become distorted: he becomes grumpy, pessimistic and he can't bear the people, he starts being suspicious, that they are not treating him right. If you see a man with such behavior, you should know that he suffers from bleeding. Parallelly with the bleeding the magnetic energy that brings life forces in the body also pours out. Every disharmony in the desires creates bleeding. When we talk about bleeding we take this word in a wider sense. It means the internal and external dissatisfaction of the man.

There's one thing you should know: the reasons of dissatisfaction of the man are hiding inside of him and not outside. To deal with his dissatisfaction, meaning his bleeding, the man should find Christ - the higher principle, the higher beginning, that recovers the Faith. The sick woman said: "If I only touch His cloth, I'll get healed". Some people are asking themselves when reading this verse isn't it superstitious to think that once touching the Christ's cloth, one will get healed? Isn't it superstitious to think that if one takes a spoon of the medicine, that his doctor recommended him, he'll get healed? It is not a question of superstition, but a man should have Faith.

The Faith and the superstition are completely different: all the rings of the Faith are connected in one whole and in the superstition they are separated. All the facts are inextricably linked in the Faith, there is a link between the causes and the consequences of the things; the desires arise from one another and there is a harmony among them. In the superstition the facts are not interconnected, the reasons and the consequences of the things don't have a strong link; the desires are scattered and there is disharmony among them. The Faith is related with the Virtues as the eternal goods of life. The Faithful person uses the Love, the Wisdom and the Truth like a golden capital and counts on them. The superstitious person counts on the temporary goods of life - richness, learning and power.

And Christ answered the sick woman: "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace.” The worldly people are laughing at the faith of the religious ones, but they believe in miracles themselves. The sick one believes that the doctor will heal him, but in the same time decades of people around him are dying, all of them dealing with doctors. The doctors help the sick people, but only partly, they can't heal the disease perfectly. You can make a cut of a fester, you can squeeze it without removing the cause of the fester. A fester will be healed, but another one will appear instead. The healing of the contemporary people is palliative, instead of basic, absolute. The reasons for the diseases are hidden in the human mind and the human heart. That's why the doctor has to first affect the mind of the sick person with his own mind. The similarities attract. The experienced doctor can heal the man before he becomes ill. He sees the reason in the future illness of the man in his mind and he starts the healing from there. When turning to the sick woman with the words: "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”, Christ shows the common method to the people, by which they can heal all the diseases. The faith, as a conscious principle, can always serve with its elements, by which it can oppose all the illnesses, especially the ones of the nerves. It is enough for the man to remove from his mind the thought that bothers him, so that he calms his nervous system. To remove a thought means to put it backwards. God says to the sinner: "I'll put your sins behind your back". This means that He'll put them somewhere down in the physical world, so that they serve as a fertilizer for the plants. Why don't you put down your thought that bothers you the same way, from the Mental to the physical world?

Which are the thoughts that bother the man? The ones that have a negative effect on his mind. The same way that the unclean food has a negative effect on the human body, the same are the bothering thoughts that have a negative effect to the mind. Never the less, there is food that is harmful for some creatures, but it is useful for others. For example, the meat is harmful for the sheep, but it is useful for the wolf. And the other way around, the grass is harmful for the wolf, but it is useful for the sheep. Therefore, not all the desires, no matter how good they are, can have a favorable effect on the heart of the man. On the contrary, they are a burden for the human heart. You should release yourself from this exact wishes. You'll say that you have faith in God and you want to follow the right way. If you are truly a believer, is it hard for you to throw a bad desire out of your heart? What costs the trader to cancel the debt of thousand leva to his poor brother? To cancel a debt of your neighbor from your book, means to gain power, to give a new push for action to your will.

The human will gets stronger in the obstacles and contradictions that it meets on its way. By regulating his thoughts and desires, the man makes his will stronger. The will gets stronger through the illnesses too. When you get a flu, a fever, a cough or another illness, don't try to make it go away, but first talk to it friendly, to convince it to leave voluntarily; if it doesn't listen to you, you can declare war on it. Who is the one that declares war? The strong one. If you are strong, fight with the illnesses, if you are not strong, then apply other methods. Make tests with yourself and your close ones, to try to heal yourself. Visit an ill person, who suffers from a cough and make the following test: put your hand on his chest. If your magnetism is strong, healthy, the ill person will immediately feel a pleasant heath, that will gradually increase. Sometimes a little raw may appear, as if the place is burnt. If your magnetism isn't strong, the sick person won't feel any heath. In general, in the healing the strong ones should help the weak ones, the big ones should help the little ones.

There is a habit among the Bulgarians, where when they go wrestling several men are going at once to the contest. The weaker ones leave one after another during the wrestling until the strongest one remains to take the garland. This is how you should deal with the illnesses. You should be the strongest wrestler and you should beat all the illnesses. The flu is one of the wrestlers, the fever - a second one, the neurasthenia - a third one and so on. When you stand against them say: "I'm a Christian, I have mighty tools and I can beat all the diseases." What do the people do? When they get sick, they immediately start searching for doctors and start taking medicines. If the fever has attacked them, they start taking quinine, to stop it. They do stop it, but they don't heal themselves. Instead of using quinine, drink hot water for three days, without taking any food and your fever will leave you. This is the way you should also treat the flu. You'll say that you can't starve. It is not a matter of starving, but of making your will stronger. Whoever has a strong will can fight all the diseases. Many people have a strong, but unreasonable will. When it is a matter of their money, they are ready to give their life, but not to reveal where the money are hidden. They show will regarding the money, because they love them. But if they get sick from a flu or a fever, they can't help themselves, they immediately start looking for external help. When it is a matter of salvation of the soul they don't have will. Start loving your soul the way you love your money and you will help yourselves.

The two sick women approached Christ or the great Teaching, to understand the conscious laws of Nature by which they can help themselves. You can't understand Christ if you don't study the Nature. Study the elements and their properties, the waters that pass through the earth layers, the plants and the animals. Study the clothes, with which you dress up and the influence that they have on your body. Moses has said to the priests to dress up with linen clothes when they serve to God. Why didn't he recommend clothes from wool or cotton, but from linen? He was seeing the bad life of the people those days and he has recommended the priests to dress up with linen clothes while serving, so that they send higher vibrations toward God. Moses was learning the Jewish people how to live and how to heal themselves. And Christ has come with the same mission.

The man can heal himself alone, he can correct his life, but he has to have Faith in himself for that and in his close ones too. A Faith without a will doesn't bring anything. If you don't apply your will, you can't heal yourself, neither you can heal the others. How would you heal the sick person if he doesn't want to heal himself? How can you help an alcoholic, if he doesn't want to give up drinking? How would you make a child study if it doesn't strive for learning? All the facilities for healing are hidden inside the man - it depends on him to bring them outside and utilize them. In relation to this the man is a warehouse of stored powers and energies, which are waiting for the moment of their manifestation. An atom hides such quantity of energy that can blow up the earth in the air. One needs knowledge to manifest this energy though.

Many want to be strong, but they search the Power outside themselves - in the money, in the knowledge, they don't have a clue that the Power is inside of them. Man has to get deeper in himself, to see that everything is hidden inside - both richness, knowledge and power. If he can accomplish this, he will manifest his power by the laws, by which he lives, according to his age. If one doesn't want to work on himself, this means that he counts on external help. The two sick women searched for the help of Christ. Which help will you search for?

Some expect Christ to come from the sky, surrounded by Angels. I say: the sound hasn't come yet for the deaf people; the light hasn't come yet for the blind. But what expects the one who has eyes and ears? Whoever has ears, let him direct them toward the space to hear what he is interested in; whoever has eyes, let him raise them to see what his soul desires. Get deeper in yourself to develop your hidden feelings and capabilities, to believe in the mightiness of your soul. The moment that you have faith that God lives inside of you, you'll be mighty and strong. Until one doesn't get to know his power and mightiness, he'll always search for it outside; he'll read what Kant, Shopenhower, Hegel, Tolstoy have said; he'll turn the pages of the Holy Book to see what the apostles and prophets have said. This is like if you read a list in which there are the names of hundreds of well known people without being connected with them. This is the same as if you were participating on a great celebration, you have seen the table with plenty of food and beverages without tasting a bite. What is the purpose of this celebration? You have seen it all, but you haven't tasted anything. When I talk to you about Christ I'm preparing the celebration that He'll give for you. If you are ready you'll be invited on His table and in front of you there will be a plate full of food; if you are not ready, you won't be invited. Once you say that you can't eat, you'll be thrown away. There are no people with weak stomachs invited on the Christ's table. Whoever joins this table, he will eat by the rules that Christ applies.

What did Christ do when He invited the five thousand people to join His table? He took the five breads and broke them. This way He has put His magnetic power in them. The breaking of the bread means digging the earth. A man should break the bread with two fingers - the thumb and the forefinger. These fingers show that during eating bread, the mind and the will of the man should participate. While breaking the bread, the man should thank God for the cares that He takes for him and to realize that he is not alone on earth. Once you know this, don't bother God with your dissatisfaction. If you accept the bread with gratitude and consciousness, not only your bleeding will stop, but you'll become unbeatable for all diseases. If the ill man eats with gratitude and realizes that God takes care of him, his condition will improve in a month. Apply the teaching of Christ both healthy or ill, so that you have His power.

Remember that every thought, every feeling, every action or occurrence create a certain effect on man's consciousness and if he can't release himself from what he saw or heard, then in a while this occurrence will repeat again. Therefore perceive only good thoughts and feelings, give your eyes and years only for beautiful actions and occurrences, so that they mark your consciousness. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences of the negative manifestations of life.

A young American felt a strong pain in one of his legs, around the ankle. He visited several doctors, but no one was able to help him. All of them were telling him that this pain is caused from an illusion. In the end the ill person went to a doctor, for which it was said that he heals all types of mental illnesses. The doctor checked the patient and like the other doctors he also didn't find any external or internal reason for this illness. He asked the patient if he remembers to have seen someone with an injured or a broken leg, that has strongly impressed him. The patient thought back to recall such a case. Eventually he recalled that six years ago he was on the station and he saw a person falling from the train and braking his leg around the ankle. This impressed him a lot. And now, six years after this case, he felt a pain on the same place of his leg. The doctor's task was no more related with searching the pain in the leg of the patient, but with going backward and releasing his consciousness from the strong impression. He succeeded doing this and therefore the pain disappeared.

What do the people do today? When they see an unnatural manifestation in someone they start laughing at him. If a woman or a man gets angry, the surrounding people start laughing at them. Others go from one house to another to tell stories about how their neighbor went angry, hurt his wife, his children and so on. The people don't know that these things are like the diseases. If you laugh to your neighbor today, soon you'll manifest similarly. Instead of laughing and criticizing your close one, pray for him, so that he deals with his anger. The critics don't correct the people.

A young maiden, a good piano player, got married. As a house wife, she had to take care for their home. One day when she was frying onion she caught some sounds that gave her an idea about a musical aria. She went by the piano with the spoon under her arm, she opened it and started composing. By that time a strong smell of something burnt reached her nose. She went in the kitchen and saw the the onion was burnt. Did her husband have to be angry at her for the burnt dish? Is she guilty that in the frying of the onion she felt these sounds? The man has to be grateful to his wife that she was able to transfer the frying in a musical aria.

"Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding". The bleeding is a bad thing, but if she didn't suffer from it she wouldn't have found Christ. If the blood of our land, meaning our body didn't pour, the wheel of our mill wouldn't turn. In other words if the blood didn't circle around our body, no Life can exist. The water that runs on the surface of the earth and inside of it, this is its blood. We call its passing through crevices pouring. Some will say that due to the water the wheel of the mill is turning and grinding the flour. This is right, but if the blood didn't run, there wouldn't have been flour. Let everyone ask himself: is your mill grinding fine, is the miller at its right place?

Remember: every misfortune or suffering on earth turns to fortune and joy in Heaven. Therefore it is said that whoever suffers on earth, he feels joy in Heaven. The same as we see the good fruits of the digging, the watering and the planting of the flowers and the fruits, the same way the Conscious beings see the good results from our sufferings. One day, when you enter the Conscious world you'll say: "Thanks, that our blood was pouring out." The sick woman that was a subject of bleeding for twelve years, she was turning the wheel of the mill for twelve years until eventually she found Christ and touched His cloth. When He saw her, Christ said: "Your faith has saved you. Go home and have a rest. Another one will come to replace you."

A few years ago I was in Sliven. I went to the home of a woman sick of neurasthenia. All of a sudden her husband - a strong and healthy man, entered the room. When I saw him I told him: "Your wife will get healed if you give her some of your strength and health." The healthy people are keeping distance from the sick ones, so that they don't suck their powers. There is nothing to be afraid of. Give yourself fearlessly, so that you are also given. The small rivers and streams should be closed so that they don't weaken, but the big rivers should be opened and they should give. If you are healthy, I'm happy that you can give to the sick and the weak ones; if you are sick, you have to make your will stronger, you have to help yourselves. Who is the one who has a strong will? The one who is not surprised of anything and can bear all the tests. The fact that he was robbed, that he has no clothes or shoes, that he is sick - nothing frightens him. You'll say that nowadays the clothes and the shoes are expensive, that the life is heavy. For the strong-willed person this is not scary. A day will come when the shoes will be made from wood and not from leather like now.

The people nowadays have to organize their desires instead of going with the flow. The thoughts, the desires and the actions of the people are dictated from Conscious beings, which differ from each other by the level of their intelligence. Even the cells, like little beings are differing with a certain consciousness. It is enough that you hit or burn a finger of yours, so that the pain is transferred to the brain, which immediately orders the motor nerves to squeeze the finger and to pull it away from the fire. If you are a trader and someone cheats you - steals ten thousand leva from you, the same finger that opens and closes your notebook tells you not to worry. It advises you to close your notebook and to not open it again. You'll say that you can't skip the cheating. The heroism of the man is exactly to feel and understand the things and to restrain. A hero is the man who, after not eating anything for three days, is ready to give up from his good lunch because of another hungry person.

Up to now the slogan of the people was "Let it leave from you!" But this slogan has created the misfortunes, the misunderstandings and the argues in the world. The new teaching has a new slogan: "Let it leave from me!" Whatever givings and receivings you have, whatever your relationships with the people are, hold the new slogan: "Let it leave from me!" This slogan holds peace for the whole humanity. The people can't correct themselves all of a sudden, they'll do it slowly, but surely. The day you believe in God and accept His Love, you'll start developing correctly. You'll still have your sufferings, but you'll understand their meaning, you'll still have your illnesses, but you'll talk with them and you'll know that they are needed for your purification - physical and spiritual. And if you believe in that, then everything will be according to your Faith. If a relative of yours gets sick, put your hand on his chest and tell him softly: "Let it leave from me!"

Christ stands in front of the unconscious people today and waits them to accept Him. Where should He be - in front of the man or inside of him? Different interpretations can be done on that matter, but it is important that the Truth is known. A famous English theologist discussed for a whole hour in front of his audience the matter how the whale swallowed Ion. The religious people do the same thing today - for two thousand years they discuss the matter of how to accept the Christ's teaching, how to accept Christ inside of them. No theories are needed here. You'll open your mouth and you'll swallow Christ, you'll accept Him inside of you at once, just like the whale swallowed Ion. The contemporary people need an application, not a theory. There are matters in life, for which resolving no reasonings are needed. The same is the matter of accepting Christ. Christ will enter inside the man the same way that Ion entered the whale's stomach. Whoever accepts Christ in him, he will become a great man. The people, they say, were about to laugh at him and mock him - this shouldn't bother him. Who's the one that was not laughed at and mocked from the people? Those who started talking about flying machines the first, weren't they stated crazy? But now their idea has manifested. Today this machine flies in the air. Why the contemporary men and women don't understand why the families fall apart day after day? Because the people have lost their Faith. They don't trust each other. What is this life, where the people don't believe in each other? Many things are being said to you, but you don't believe in them. It doesn't matter for me if you believe or not. I believe in what I'm saying. I believe in the God's laws and I apply them in practice every single moment. To gain a true, positive Faith, you should study the things and apply them.

Accept Christ inside of you. If you can't do that at once, then touch His cloth. The Christ's cloth presents the Faith. Touch everything that God has created - the flowers, the fruitful trees. Plant several flowers in pots or in your garden so that you are healthy and grow them. Plant fruitful trees and vegetables in your garden, to study them and to use the powers, that they hide inside of them. Touch the sun's rays of light. If you are searching for Christ, you'll find Him in everything, that God has created. This means that you would touch His cloth and your bleeding would stop. Then you'll hear Christ's voice: "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

Make tests to see that everything hides a certain power inside of it. Everything in the world is alive. Have you tested the power of the diamond? Have you tested the power of the grain? You say that everything is alive, but you often mistreat the life of the little creatures. The children love especially tearing the heads of the flies and they don't think about the bad consequences of their actions. The mothers should forbid their children to tear the heads of the flies or to destroy the nests of the birds.

There was a ten years old child of a rich man in one Bulgarian village, who climbed on a tree where there was a swallow with her five little birds. He took the little ones out of the nest and cut their tongues. Afterwards he has put them back in the nest. The mother not only didn't pay much attention to her child's action, but she even laughed at it without punishing him or scolding him. What has happened to this child? When it grew up, it became a big man and got married. He became father of five children, one after another and they were all mute. Why should a man do something evil, why should he torture the little and helpless creatures? Sometimes a man does evil due to lack of knowledge, but sometimes he does it consciously. You have to be awake, all of you, to report even your thoughts, to guide and learn the ignorant and smaller than you.

And today Christ turns toward all the people and tells them to correct their life, to purify their heart and to touch the cloth of their Father. - "Where is He?" - Everywhere. The grass is His cloth, the stones are His cloth. Take your shoes off during the summer and go for an hour or two bare feet on the grass and the stones. Touch the flowers and the trees and you'll hear the silent voice of your Father: "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

Now is the moment to touch the God's mantle. It is in front of you and it is ready to help everyone, who believes in its power. This is what the Divine Spirit preaches to all the people on earth: "Sons and daughters, slaves and servants, turn toward Me and I'll turn toward you. You'll be My children and I'll be your Father. I'll write My law in your hearts and there will be Peace and Joy on earth."
