Hi Rebecca, thanks for your thoughtful comment. In regards to children, perceptions are actually inherited genetically and can be transferred as limiting beliefs unintentionally by parents to highly impressionable young children, while this is not their fault, per se, the fact that they have illnesses can in fact be caused by their own inherited perceptions. I’d be careful about making the leap to the claim that children don’t suffer illness due to inherited perception, because they do, however, they may not be at fault as you mention. However, most of us are not really at fault, as the perceptual conditioning we receive and inherit mostly occurs during childhood and is carried for the rest of our lives. Adults are not necessarily at fault either in that regard… however, it is our responsibility to do the inner work if we want freedom and health mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically.
