Electricity and Sexuality

Electricity claims to be within a body, and this works more subtly than an embodied form of evil. In what we call evil man, we see evil there and connect it with the form of a man; thus electricity claims to have its body by using bodies. It is what claims to be an evil man. In the matter of sex attraction, it claims to use two bodies, and this is its embodiment — the embodiment of electricity forcing or creating by its action another body, all the time being so illusive that it appears to have no body. Electricity works as sex attraction, or by reversal or reaction as sex friction. This is the foundation for hate or malpractice of all kinds, including sin, sickness and death.

The denial of electricity as presence or power destroys the root of evil, and man is free to manifest the Truth and its infinite forms of good. Therefore the importance of claiming that you cannot be negatively electrified. We read in Science and Health, "Passions and appetites must end in pain. They are 'of few days, and full of trouble.' Their supposed joys are cheats. Their narrow limits belittle their gratifications, and hedge about their achievements with thorns." Electricity is only a state of mind. Aggressive mental suggestion claims to function as destructive electrical influence. All there is to the claim of so-called destructive electricity is conflicting mortal opinions and beliefs. Again we read in the textbook, "Science shows that material, conflicting mortal opinions and beliefs emit the effects of error at all times, but this atmosphere of mortal mind cannot be destructive to morals and health when it is opposed promptly and persistently by Christian Science. Truth and Love antidote this mental miasma, and thus invigorate and sustain existence."

Handle the claim of sex antagonism by first denying it and then translating it into the spiritual counterfact — the male and female of God's creating, masculine wisdom and feminine love, which co-exist as the two-fold nature of the infinite God reflected as individual man, and not as positive male and negative female. Each individual exists as the complete unfoldment of the two-fold nature of the Father-Mother God. Discern the equality of masculine wisdom and feminine love in the Christ-consciousness. There is no superior male or female. To the male and female of God's creating, wisdom and love exist as the all-harmonious one in the individual consciousness -- the Christ-consciousness of scientific understanding and spiritual discernment.
