A practitioner asks: “Why are my wife’s hands still suffering so terribly from eczema?”

This, indeed, is a continuation of the karmic dance underway, in this case, a karmic dance with the consciousness of viruses in the broader context of their own history and their lineage, as well as the karmic history she brings to the party from having had many lifetimes of being attacked and impaired by microbes, as is true for everyone. It is the latter that set the scene for this to get underway, but now it is not her karma so much as it is the karma of the virus that is shifting the balance here to a worsening rather than a resolution and withdrawal from the scene, which would lead to full healing like it never happened. There are, indeed, often times holdouts, viral particles more resistant to the divine healing efforts, and that can be a factor in obtaining a rapid elimination. When there are holdouts, through regrouping and multiplication a viral condition that seems to have abated can easily flare up once again, and it may be difficult to tell or believe there was any divine influence after all, if a person finds themselves back where they started with symptoms once again. This is not at all unusual. There is frequently a kind of tug-of-war that plays out over time, but this is a part of the dynamic when divine healing is brought to bear on the physical realm. There are many variables in play and constraints on how quickly we can bring things to a sufficient level of improvement to tip the balance once and for all in favor of complete healing. So even though we understand this is not only inconvenient but distressing, we can assure you there is no reason for worry or second-guessing the quality of your efforts and the outcome that will eventually be reached with a successful healing. It Is only a matter of time. In the meanwhile, repeat healing requests are always a good idea because it will supply further ammunition to strengthen the effort and speed the healing.
