Neuritis

Once I met a lady who said she had been to many physicians for the complaint of neuritis. She was temporarily cured, but it always came back, and she asked me for something that would help her.

I said to her: 'Is there any person in the world whom you dislike, whom you hate, or whose action is troubling your mind?' She said: 'Yes, there are many people whom I dislike, and especially there is one person whom I cannot forgive.'

'Well', I said, 'that is the neuritis, that is the root of the disease. Outwardly it is a pain of the body; inwardly it is rooted in the heart.'
