the source and direction whence they are derived and establishing their
classical trend and legitimate purpose.




SYSTEM OF REGENERATION


In order to bring the entire system of regeneration under review, I
shall here endeavour to present in condensed form all the essential
points in my teachings. The reader will thus be enabled to picture to
himself his body, with its vital organs, clearly as in a mirror; he will
become familiarized with its composition and twelve principal tissues,
as well as with the sixteen elements of which they consist.

Man is a unit, and the human body an accumulation of millions of
separate cells, which are centres of life and which, in different
groupings and combinations, form the various organs that render
existence possible.

This existence is the natural sequel of the existence of former human
beings. They generated the life that is to be transferred by us to other
living beings.

The several functions of the organism combine to form a chain of
activities in which there must not be a single link missing, if life is
to continue.
