The heavenly law is broken by trespassing upon man's individual right of self-government. We have no authority in Christian Science and no moral right to attempt to influence the thoughts of others, except it be to benefit them. In mental practice you must not forget that erring human opinions, conflicting selfish motives, and ignorant attempts to do good may render you incapable of knowing or judging accurately the need of your fellow-men. Therefore the rule is, heal the sick when called upon for aid, and save the victims of the mental assassins.

Day 125: Age Not
decrepitude is not according to law, nor is it a necessity of nature, but an illusion

Day 57: Self-government
Man is properly self-governed only when he is guided rightly and governed by his Maker, divine Truth and Love.

Day 225: Human Will
Since most of this reading is about human will (or it was to me), I thought I would link up other days I thought included that topic.
Thoughts MBE has about Human Will:
Christian Science silences human will, quiets fear with Truth and Love, and illustrates the unlabored motion of the divine energy in healing the sick.
The human will which maketh and worketh a lie, hiding the divine Principle of harmony, is destructive to health, and is the cause of disease rather than its cure.
The exercise of will brings on a hypnotic state, detrimental to health and integrity of thought. This must therefore be watched and guarded against.
The heavenly law is broken by trespassing upon man’s individual right to self-government.
