Guest guest Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 I'm in the midst of reading a book entittled : The Healing Power of the Mind. Like to share several excerpts.. perhaps something for us to think about… "Our minds posses the power of healing pain and creating joy. If we use that power along with proper living, a positive attitude, and meditations, we can heal not only our mental and emotional afflictions but even physical problem" `There are three basic steps which form an integral aspect of healing process : 1] Acknowledging difficulties and sufferings [2] opening to them [3] cultivating a positive attitude. " "… the root sickness of mind and body is grasping at "self". The poisons of the mind that arise from this grasping are ignorancece, hatred and desire." "… In its true nature, the mind is peaceful and enlightened. Anyone who understands this is already on the path to wisdom What is meant by total openness and oneness? … when limitations and restrictions are gone, there is oneness. With oneness, there is no suffering or conflict, because conflict exists only where there is more than one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
