«This book is an effort to integrate medical science with an investigation of the subtler aspects and energies of human personality, so as to indicate their intricate and close interdependency.»

«As our studies progressed, we learned that what may appear to originate in one dimension, as, for example, at the etheric level, may actually derive from a deeper level such as the emotional or mental. Abnormalities and tumors of the thyroid gland may appear to originate at the etheric throat center, yet further observation may point to the cause as being in the emotions, just as physical deseases seem to originate at the etheric level.»
