The study of disease. Pathologie
A condition that develops within one human body that is directly connected to another body. It is a projection (gift) from one or more bodies/personae, in order that its full impact may be experienced at a distance. Many physicians project and/or nurture pathology within their patients, so they might study the condition more closely, without being caught up in it. As we have often pointed out, nothing can enter one's body or mind except by mutual contract. And so it is that physicians and patients have a special dance relationship that is mutually satisfying and amusing, one with the other. (cp. disorder, schitzophrenia, bipolar disorder) ² Pathology: A Gateway to Transformation, which is initiated when a portion of the Veil is opened or removed, allowing a merge of essence to occur--between two individuals or objects hosted within the same environment. (cp. disease, condition).

Pathology (from Greek pathos, feeling, pain, suffering; and logos, study of; see also -ology) is the study of the processes underlying disease and other forms of illness, harmful abnormality, or dysfunction. Within biology but also a branch of medicine, it means specifically the study and diagnosis of the structural and functional changes in molecules, cells, tissues and organs that underlie disease. Pathology as a field of knowledge hence forms the basis of the scientific reasoning behind the practice of medicine.
