HEALTH AND SICKNESS

Everything in the world has a dual nature. When this is the case in politics, science, sports, emotions, is it conceivable for our bodies to be exempt from this duality? Like everything else in the universe, our bodies experience polar opposites such as health and illness, birth and death, regeneration and destruction. Our bodies also regularly undergo oxidation and reduction, anabolic and catabolic cycles.

How Do Diseases Occur?

We sometimes only see ourselves as right and fail to empathize with others. And sometimes, we harshly judge ourselves and take the blame for everything. Both states indicate a distorted consciousness. Diseases arise when we are in one of these two distorted states that see either itself or the other side as right. Our natural state deteriorates, and we begin experiencing illnesses. Illnesses are nothing more than the disruption of the body's natural balance. And diseases only occur when the balance of the mind is disturbed.

Signals Reflected from the Body

Our body is a set of systems that operate perfectly, and it gives us various signals, sometimes visible and sometimes not. It is the body's duty to reflect this awareness. Our body consists of tens of thousands of tiny latitudes and longitudes, or acupuncture meridian points. Each point here has a separate and special meaning.

Our body is a detailed map of our mind pattern reflected in the three-dimensional world. Aches and physical pain in our bodies, judgments and conditionings in our minds are all linked to severely distorted thought patterns.

Should We Resort to Drug Therapy?

For the reasons explained above, suppressing diseases and illnesses or hiding symptoms with medications are not the correct course of action. It's like shooting the messenger. So, instead of taking drugs, numbing ourselves and appearing to be cured, we should evaluate these crystal-clear signs that our bodies give. We can heal fully only when we do that.

Many doctors researching this say that diseases are a part of health. They note that the state of illness actually indicates a deterioration in the balance of the mind, a psychological and spiritual distortion and even a distortion regarding meaning.

Physical Signs Indicate a Break from Meaning

Yes, my dear readers…Illness is a healthy response that our bodies give us. It is a sign that a person has lost the much needed physical, spiritual and psychological balance. Symptoms in our body are also an important indicator that we are disconnected from meaning. They are an indication that we are not living according to our own values, that there are subjective judgments in our minds, that we are disconnected from the point of meaning and balance, that is, from the truth.

How about we change our perspective and stop seeing sickness as a bad thing? Sickness paves the path to good health. And illnesses should be regarded as the clearest sign of the good days ahead.

Until next time, stay happy and healthy.
