Oneness & Wellness

SADHGURU JAGGI VASUDEV





The word `health' comes from the root word `whole'. When we say we're `feeling healthy', we're saying that we've a sense of wholeness within us. A person can be said to be of good health only if he feels complete in body , mind and spirit.Physically , one may be healthy , but energies may be lethargic. For every physical or psychological situation that you go through in life, there is an energy basis, which, in turn, has a chemical basis. In a way , modern allopathic medicines have been reduced to mere chemistry . Whatever is happening on the chemistry level in your body is only controlled by the way your energies function. If a man has excess acids within him, you introduce some alkaline medicine into him.
But why does he have excessive acids? Because of the way his mind, his body and his energy function. In yoga, neither the body nor the mind is looked at in isolation -the focus is on energy . If your energy body is in balance and full flow, your physical body and mental body will be in perfect health.
For this, you have to go to the foundations of your energy system and activate it, building a foundational yogic practice that establishes your energy in a way that your body and mind are naturally fine. The more our activities, the greater our exposure to things that can throw our chemistry asunder, creating health problems.
This life energy in you creat ed your whole body: bones, heart, everything. If your energies are kept in full flow and proper balance, they are capable of much more than just health.
