Man's Dominion
Instead of experiencing man's divine right to dominion over finite sense, mortals believe they are embraced in a material universe and in every way circumscribed by its fears and limitations. To appearance, this material universe includes innumerable persons and things, which are supposed to exist quite apart from the individual's own mentality or consciousness. However, the teaching of Mary Baker Eddy is making it clear that without human mentality or consciousness there would be no material universe, no finite sense of existence, no problems. This teaching declares that whoever and whatever plays a part in individual experience is one's own exclusive mental experience. Accordingly, it is only in individual belief, mentality, or consciousness that the solution of problems is seen to be necessary.
We need to keep this clearly in view when considering the nature of Christian Science practice; for how, otherwise, could we reasonably expect a spiritually mental treatment to change anything? Does spiritual understanding fare forth into space and come to grips with persons, circumstances, and things, either individual or collective? No; but it changes the mental concepts or finite points of view—points of view which seem to be outward material conditions, but which really are not.
