The history of the Mass. Metaphysical College is yet unwritten This school is the first of its kind in America or Europe of which we have a history and unlike other colleges its course of instruction uplifts the standard of ethics while its practice includes the divine rule and demonstrates the scientific Principle of Christian healing.
Over twenty years ago it was discovered at The Oxford UniversityMary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures379:9A felon, on whom certain English students experi‐
mented, fancied himself bleeding to death, and died be‐
cause of that belief, when only a stream of
379:12warm water was trickling over his arm. Had
he known his sense of bleeding was an illusion, he would
have risen above the false belief. Let the despairing in‐
379:15valid, inspecting the hue of her blood on a cambric hand‐
kerchief, think of the experiment of those Oxford boys,
who caused the death of a man, when not a drop of his
379:18blood was shed. Then let her learn the opposite state‐
ment of Life as taught in Christian Science, and she will
understand that she is not dying on account of the state of
379:21her blood, but is suffering from her belief that blood is
destroying her life. The so-called vital current does not
affect the invalid’s health, but her belief produces the
379:24very results she dreads. England that the action of mind alone on the body was capable of killing a man
Today it is taught and proven in Boston that mind alone can save a man's life and heal his diseases [*]Archival Note: This paragraph is followed by a series of marks that look like Xs or cross marks.
