Medicine vs health
© stephalicious
Do you find that little things from the past stick in your mind? I do… and I think these little things are very important, have important messages for us.
Anyway…
One of those things that stuck with me was an interview with a doctor I saw on TV. Very nice man, good doctor… one of the few enlightened ones back then.
The chat was about the relative merits of medicine vs health…
This was a rare doctor back then who saw that lifestyle was at the root of most suffering… He said he always tried to educate his patients but rarely did they make any changes.
The interviewer said that if education was so ineffective, why bother? And this is what got me — the doctor said…
“If you throw enough mud at the wall, some of it will stick.”
Wonderful.
Funnily enough I was reading about a spiritual teacher the other day who has about the same success rate…
“Call 10,000, 100 will listen.
Of the 100, 10 will do.
Of the 10, one will achieve.”
That one is worth it.
Speak your truth
I believe strongly that we all must speak our truth, that it is worth it. Even if only one listens and achieves, it is worth it.
I see clearly the madness of our lifestyles and I have to speak my truth. That all this suffering is avoidable, that 99% of it is caused by not living right.
If you see someone enduring years of black depression, say, is it worth trying to throw some mud? How could ANY human being not? If you see the causes and there is confusion, I say everyone would do it. It’s human nature. Compassion is our nature.
Nearly all that ails us is the result of DECADES of not living well. It’s a tragedy. Our joy snuffed out due to ignorance.
That’s why Habit Guide is so badly needed. It shows you how to live well — what to change and how to change. Short, powerful and effective…
All the best,
