Definitions
if a patient had a tough engramic background, then broke his leg and got sympathy he thereafter tends to go around with a simulated broken leg-arthritis, etc. etc. This is the sympathy computation. It makes a patient "want to be sick." Sickness has a high survival value says the reactive mind. So it tailors up a body to be sick.(EOS, p. 93)
