Life & Death!

Nature teaches about life & death all the time!

Being doctors, we do see life very closely and death too! It is possible that in one day one of our patient delivers a baby, and same day you lose a patient. For us, this is life! You do not hide anything from God and...your doctor. When patients share their life story, their problems with us...we know life as it is. Nothing is hidden from us. And God grants us the ability to stay calm amidst all these. Yesterday, visited my aunt who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. This morning, news that a dear friend is no more. He died last night! We spent much time talking, sharing about things in life just few days ago! And, there are more phone calls since morning to attend to various patients.....with various problems...What helps is.....taking flower remedies, and meditating a few minutes, praying for good health & life to all..... whenever time permits.

And, then get ready to handle some more.....at Healin' Temple!

Reflections - A Very Inspiring Book

I am very fortunate I feel. I am meeting very nice people these days. One such couple I met, is Mr. Harshad Parekh and His wife Nayana. They both are long time vegans.They gifted me this wonderful book written by Akbarali Jetha, name as Reflections. Akabar Jetha is no more now. He was a vegan by choice. He wrote this book.

Some inspirational quotes from the book:

Man's success should not be judged by
the wealth he has,
but to the extent he is at peace with himself.

If we are not happy now,
we may never be.

What pest control did Nature use
for vegetation grown underground?

The happiness that we enjoyed in childhood
was due to our state of mind,
not- due to any external factor.

Creativity Heals!

This is the picture taken of the Eco-friendly Ganeshji made by my friend Shormistha. I liked it very much. So, I decided to keep the picture with me on my cell phone. She made it with wheat flour and added turmeric powder. Her own love for the Deity is reflected in the idol. God is within us. Creativity heals. All of us should have some creative activity going on daily in our life. It boosts our self esteem. Simple things in life make us happy!

Crying is good for health!

There are times when we feel sad. We feel like crying. It is better to cry. Sometimes situations don't permit us to cry. Then cry later on in privacy. But don't suppress your tears.
I often see at Healin' Temple, when we take case history of a patient , he or she feels like crying while narrating their case. A good healer is the one who listens to his patients. It is very very important that healer listens to his patient with all his attention. Crying helps the patient very much. A gentle, empathetic conversation, without any judgement passed on, heals.
Next time, if you feel like crying, do let your tears out. In the long run, you stay healthy this way. Suppressed emotions lead to long term health problems. And gladly accept that happy times and sad times are both part of life.
Happy healing!

Sun is the same.

I love Sun. It is as my life. I am fortunate to live in a very sunny country. This is summer time. It is hot. Humid. and very bright. But I like it. Let me enjoy sunshine before it starts to rain next month. Then, it will be cloudy. No sunshine for days.
I do 'Surya Namaskar ' to you Sun! ( I bow down to Sun!)
I know that we are made up of the same stuff as the universe. So macrocosm and the microcosm are same. So, I have also a sun within me. I call it Inner sun. When it is bright, radiant, our soul shines.
Solar Pranic energy is very important for our life. Sun rises and sun sets. Sun is same everywhere. And yet not same. It can just be so different each moment.

Breath is life!

Inhale, and God approaches you.

Hold the inhalation, and God remians with you.

Exhale, and you approach God.

Hold the exhalation, and surrender to God.

-- Krinamacharya

There are times , when I just want to remian quiet. Be with myself.

Just be. Just breath.

To be with my God!
