Relief from Pain

When black colour is remembered perfectly, relief from pain always results. The skin may be pricked with a sharp instrument without causing discomfort. The lobe of the ear may be pinched between the nails of the thumb and first finger, and no pain will be felt. At the same time the sense of touch becomes more acute, the sense of taste, smell and hearing are also improved while the efficiency of the mind is increased but one does not suffer from heat or cold.

A student was suffering from severe pain in the head and the eyes for many days. When he could palm and remember black colour he was completely relieved of pain.

In many cases of glaucoma not only the pain, but the tension which is often associated with the pain, has been completely relieved by palming.

A boy suffering from deafness began to hear well by the memory of black colour.

Why the memory of black colour should have such a good effect cannot be fully explained, but it is evident that the body must be less susceptible to disturbances of all kinds when the mind is under control, and when the mind is under control black colour can be remembered perfectly. That pain can be produced in any part of the body by the action of the mind is not a new observation; and if the mind can produce pain, it is not surprising that it should also be able to relieve pain and the conditions which produce it.

With a little training, anyone with good eyesight can be taught to remember black colour properly with the eyes closed and covered, and with a little more training anyone can learn to do it with the eyes open. When one is suffering extreme pain, however, the control of the memory may be difficult and the assistance of someone who understands the method may be necessary.
