The 33 Principles Series

Every month we are featuring one of the 33 Principles of Chiropractic that were published by Ralph W. Stephenson D.C. in 1927 in a book called “The Chiropractic Textbook”. Even today these principles are central to chiropractic. Whilst some of the language is a bit old the principles remain solid. Consider the principle of this month and discuss it with us when you visit the practice.

Here’s to a greater understanding of life and health.

Chiropractic Principle #14

The Universal Life

Force is manifested by motion in matter; all matter has motion, therefore there is Universal life in all matter.

In Other Words…

ALL matter is made of atoms, vibrating at specific frequencies. How do atoms move?! By the force of motion. Universal Intelligence created atoms, AND created force. Universal Life is therefore present in all matter; without Universal Life, nothing would exist.

For Instance…

Ever observe bacteria under a microscope? What do you see? Yep… motion! Like all matter, bacteria is comprised of tiny vibrating particles. The force of motion is joining the Universal Intelligence that made the atoms, with the atoms, to create the bacteria; Universal Life will always be present.

As Applied To You…

YOU are also made of vibrating atoms. Your body’s Intelligence “found” a group of atoms in the universe, and via forces of motion, organized them into you. Since Universal Intelligence created the atoms, as well as the force, Universal Life will always be part of you.
