Modern Medicine and Wholistic Healing

These few days I have been helping a woman realise her next step. She is one of the most intelligent woman, most intense and passionate. Yes, she is passionate about making difference in the world. She was a victim of mental health system for many years. She was diagnosed as bi-polar at first, then schizophrenic. She was drugged for 25 years. All this while her body kept giving the messages. Her body kept on refusing the drugs. What she needed was a person to understand her. A person who would have asked her what made her imbalanced and fearful. A person to help her untie the knots of all that was holding her true potential as a human being. But all that the doctors and sytem did was to declare her mentally ill.


Same has happened with the so called 'Schizophrenics', 'Bipolar','OCD', 'BP', 'Diabetes' etc. etc. . It's true that there are certain imbalances that create these Dis-eases in the body. But in my understanding, in the world of healing, to which I belong, anything can be cured and even genetic code can be changed by harnessing the true potential of natural and wholistic healing powers. The healing therapies like Reiki, Chakra balancing, Hara Balancing, Yoga, Pranic Healing, Kundalini, Qi-qong, Zhorei etc were based on the in-depth knowledge and understanding of Human Body, Mind and Energy.

Let me present to you a few general statements about certain things. I say generalized because it stands true in 80% cases.

- More and more people in US and around the world are getting obese. Apart from the fact that life has become easy and equipments are available for us to do the job, the truth is that obese people feel very insecure. To cover up their insecurity, they eat more. They eat more, gain weight and show to the world that they are also strong and big. That they cannot be harmed.

-Diabetes. People who have diabetes generally cannot digest the sweetness of the life. If anyone comes and says hello to them, is very nice, they tend to think that one must be having some work from them. We are not discounting on the fact that they might not be living healthy and must be eating lot of comfort food.

-Indigestion. This signifies that one is not letting go of the past or recent past. One want to hold on to the past, which is over.

The list is long. The only thing that I want to put across is that, the modern medicines cannot bring about the changes which are needed to be completely healed. They may have made wonder drugs to make one feel elevated, make one recover from the outer syptoms, but what about the core issue? After one leaves the drugs, one comes back to square one.

I am not saying that the role of Modern Medicine in our lives is entirely wrong. But I would also like to emphasize the role of Holistic and Natural medicine. The fact is that today's medicine world, "The Pharmacuetical World", is not the answer to most of the so called diseases. Because, how they create medicines is a known truth. These medicines are created after dissecting the dead bodies, live animals such as rats and guinea pigs, who have no connection with the human body.
The answer for curing something is not drugging. The answer lies in the harmonious co-existance of the modern drugs combined with the natural healing practices, because they can complement each other. Large consiousness is required for the understanding to develop in Modern world about the disease, diagnosis and healing procedure, sothat healing can be whole and complete.

Sea and Me

We had a vacation last week at Pismo Beach, California. It was really nice, calm, and clean beach. The best part was that the beach was almost empty, as if divinity had planned it this for us.

We could see the birds and pelicans playing with the sea, dancing, floating, gliding and chasing the waves. It was as if they became a part of the sea. We wanted to capture in the camera and fortunately, we forgot our camera in the hotel. It was amazing how unique nature is. Somethings are not supposed to be captured in the camera. How can we? The moment will pass by, fly away. That enjoyment and Aananda of being in that moment vanishes. It escapes us.

That's what they say,"Best moments are never captured, they are lived."

That moment became absolute for us. It was the sea, it's waves, the birds and their oneness with the sea. We heard the sea. It was speaking. The voice of it's deep can seem like a roar, but nothing can be more calming and soothing than that. It is the most gentle of all sounds that mankind may imagine it to be. Imagine mankind producing such a sound, with such precision and quality, roar yet soothing... A man cannot.

For one more time we felt we were listening to the nature so intently and passionately, that time flew by. Every moment was the moment we were in. No tension or any other thought, just sea and us. The uniqueness of this experience was that we became as vast as the sea and sea shrinked in our persona. That was the oneness. that was the moment of truth and enlightenment.
