Some years ago I received a clipping from a magazine
describing the origin of the discovery of insulin. This is the
essence of the article as I recall it.
About forty years ago or more, Dr. Frederick Banting, a
brilliant Canadian physician and surgeon, was concentrating
his attention on the ravages of diabetes. At that time medical
science offered no effective method of arresting the disease.
Dr. Banting spent considerable time experimenting and
studying the international literature on the subject.
One night he was exhausted and fell asleep. While asleep,
his subconscious mind instructed him to. extract the residue
from the degenerated pancreatic duct of dogs, This was the
origin of insulin which has helped millions of people. You will
note that Dr. Banting had been consciously dwelling on the problem for some time seeking a solution, a way out, and his
subconscious responded accordingly.
It does not follow that you will always get an answer
overnight. The answer may not come for some time. Do
be discouraged. Keep on turning the problem over every night
you had never
., to the subconscious mind prior to sleep, as if done it before.
One of the reasons for the delay may be that you look
it as a major problem. You may believe it will take
long time to solve it. Your subconscious mind is timeless and
spaceless. Go to sleep believing you have the answer now. Do
not postulate the answer in the future. Have an abiding faith
in the outcome. Become convinced now as you read this book
that there is an answer and a perfect solution for you.
