Abstract

"Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease."

-Hippocrates

The power of Inner Silence is greater than the power of Science because every invention of Science takes place only by the power of deep silence. This Silence is also the natural healer of our mind and body. The power of Silence is experienced by all living beings on earth by the process of sleep which helps to rejuvenate the body and mind of every living being. Hence sleep is known as Unconscious meditation and Meditation is known as Conscious sleep. Although disease is a physical manifestation, the root causes of most illnesses are not physical. The true root causes of almost every disease lie deep within every person who is ill. In essence, we create every illness that we experience, be it on a subconscious level or an unconscious level. There are distinct emotional and mental patterns associated with every illness. The way we choose to use our mind and the way we respond to our outer world have more to do with disease than our diet and our environment.

It is said that stress can kill. It is really not the stress in and of itself that kills, it is the way we choose to process the stress that could hurt us or make us very sick. The body in essence is a mirror of our inner thoughts, emotions and beliefs. Every single cell in the body has its own intelligence and is able to listen to what we are thinking and feel what we are expressing emotionally.

In reality, our cells and our body respond to every thought we think, every emotion we have and every word we speak. Repetitive modes of thinking and suppressing negative emotions such as anger, resentment, bitterness, and hatred can and will eventually manifest as disease in the body. Literally, suppressed emotions become like ticking bombs waiting for the perfect conditions to detonate and manifest as disease.
