With regard to inherited weaknesses, we must understand this first of all: Each one of us gets the parents that we either merit or deserve. By the inexorable working of the Law are we drawn to and born of parents whose Ray-vibrational content, whose conditions of life, whose physical make-up and mental and spiritual equipment are exactly suited to provide that which is to be our training ground for our spell in this world.

No-one can with truth and justice blame heredity or their family conditions for those misfortunes or  ailments which come their way. Each man has only himself to blame for every circumstance of his life. If his Ray-vibrational content had been different, if not these but other lessons had to be learned, then he would have been born of different parents in different circumstances.

You might be born a king, you might be born the Shah of Persia, or you might be born in a London slum. The circumstances in which you find yourself are exactly suited to your particular stage of development. It is your opportunity through effort, through the harnessing of the God-power within, through the learning how to open yourself to the inflow of God-power which is ever offering itself from the God-source, so can you use your circumstances as a stepping stone or  as a rung of the ladder that leads up to higher things.

So you can see that the man who is born into a family that has certain hereditary weaknesses, has drawn towards himself those weaknesses which manifest themselves in his bodily make-up. On the other hand those weaknesses may be there but through his own effort and Ray-vibrational progress he may succeed in refusing to allow those weaknesses to become a menace to him. He may turn the negative and destructive elements of those vibrational weaknesses into positivity. In other words he may find out how so to flood himself with God-rays, with God-consciousness, with the perfection of God-vibrations held in balance, that no negative element can find any more place within him. He can expurgate and cleanse himself in the purity of the God-rays.

So the Entity who has in the past tied knots and tangles in her life-beam, may feel an urgent desire to have the opportunity to straighten out those knots and tangles, which by their presence hinder her progression. Their presence within her Ray-vibrational content makes it possible for her to take on a body whose hereditary line includes a weakness in some physical elements.

The entity is thereby put in the way of working through an experience (say of cancerous pain) that will through the effort conquer the pain split open the Core to a great intake of god-rays, thereby smoothing out the tangles in the life-beam. Thereafter the Entity is free.
