THE
33 CHIROPRACTIC PRINCIPLES
1.
THE MAJOR PREMISE. A
Universal Intelligence is in all matter and continually gives to it all its
properties and actions, thus maintaining it in existence.
2.
THE CHIROPRACTIC MEANING OF LIFE. The expression of this intelligence through matter
is the Chiropractic meaning of life.
3.
THE UNION OF INTELLIGENCE AND MATTER.
Life is necessarily the union of intelligence and
matter.
4.
THE TRIUNE OF LIFE. Life
is a triune having three necessary united factors, namely Intelligence, Force,
and Matter.
5.
THE PERFECTION OF THE TRIUNE. In order to have 100% Life, there must be 100%
Intelligence, 100% Force, 100% Matter.
6.
THE PRINCIPLE OF TIME. There
is no process that does not require time.
7.
THE AMOUNT OF INTELLIGENCE IN MATTER.
The amount of intelligence for any given amount of
matter is 100%, and is always proportional to its requirements.
8.
THE FUNCTION OF INTELLIGENCE. The function of intelligence is to express force.
9.
THE AMOUNT OF FORCE CREATED BY INTELLIGENCE.
The amount of force created by intelligence is
always 100%.
10.
THE FUNCTION OF FORCE. The
function of force is to unite intelligence and matter.
11.
THE CHARACTER OF UNIVERSAL FORCES. The forces of Universal Intelligence are manifested
by physical laws; are unswerving and unadapted, and have no solicitude for the
structures in which they work.
12.
INTERFERENCE WITH THE TRANSMISSION OF UNIVERSAL FORCES.
There can be interference with transmission of
universal forces.
13.
THE FUNCTION OF MATTER. The
function of matter is to express force.
14.
UNIVERSAL LIFE. Force
is manifested by motion in matter; all matter has motion, therefore there is
universal life in all matter.
15.
NO MOTION WITHOUT THE EFFORT OF FORCE.
Matter can have no motion without the application
of force by intelligence.
16.
INTELLIGENCE IN BOTH ORGANIC AND INORGANIC MATTER.
Universal Intelligence gives force to both organic
and inorganic matter.
17.
CAUSE AND EFFECT. Every
effect has a cause and every cause has effects.
18.
EVIDENCE OF LIFE. The
signs of life are evidence of the intelligence of life.
19.
ORGANIC MATTER. The
material of the body of a "living thing" is organized matter.
20.
INNATE INTELLIGENCE. A
"living thing" has an inborn intelligence within its body, called
Innate Intelligence.
21.
THE MISSION OF INNATE INTELLIGENCE.
The mission of Innate Intelligence is to maintain
the material of the body of a "living thing" in active organization.
22.
THE AMOUNT OF INNATE INTELLIGENCE.
There is 100% of Innate Intelligence in every
"living thing," the requisite amount, proportional to its
organization.
23.
THE FUNCTION OF INNATE INTELLIGENCE.
The function of Innate Intelligence is to adapt
universal forces and matter for use in the body, so that all parts of the body
will have coordinated action for mutual benefit.
24.
THE LIMITS OF ADAPTATION.
Innate
Intelligence adapts forces and matter for the body as long as it can do so
without breaking a universal law, or Innate Intelligence is limited by the
limitations of matter.
25.
THE CHARACTER OF INNATE FORCES. The forces of Innate Intelligence never injure or
destroy the structures in which they work.
26.
COMPARISON OF UNIVERSAL AND INNATE FORCES.
In order to carry on the universal cycle of life,
Universal forces are destructive, and Innate forces constructive, as regards
structural matter.
27.
THE NORMALITY OF INNATE INTELLIGENCE.
Innate Intelligence is always normal and its
function is always normal.
28.
THE CONDUCTORS OF INNATE FORCES.
The forces of Innate Intelligence operate through
or over the nervous system in animal bodies.
29.
INTERFERENCE WITH THE TRANSMISSION OF INNATE FORCES.
There can be interference with the transmission of
Innate Forces.
30.
THE CAUSE OF DIS-EASE.
Interference
with the transmission of Innate forces causes incoordination or dis-ease.
31.
SUBLUXATIONS. Interference
with the transmission in the body is always directly or indirectly due to
subluxations in the spinal column.
32.
THE PRINCIPLE OF COORDINATION.
Coordination is the principle of harmonious action
of all the parts of an organism, in fulfilling their offices and purposes.
33.
THE LAW OF DEMAND AND SUPPLY. The Law of Demand and Supply is existent in the
body in its ideal state; wherein the "clearing house," is the brain,
Innate the virtuous "banker," brain cells "clerks," and
nerve cells "messengers."
