What Goes on During Spirit Healing?

André Rostant

To trace something unknown back to something known is alleviating, soothing, gratifying and gives moreover a feeling of power. Danger, disquiet, anxiety attend the unknown – the first instinct is to eliminate these distressing states. Transubstantiation is a standardized miracle (the repetitive, guaranteed miracle of the Mass, offered four times a day). But I have something a bit grander in mind.
