Unusal Powers of Mind over Matter

A couple of months ago, I had the honor of sitting in on a lecture by his holyness, the Dalai Lama. His amazing joyfulness made my mind wonder about the origin of his path.

You cannot help but be impressed with the life of Buddha, regardless of your particular religion (or lack, thereof). When seeing his people were sickness and dying, he couldn’t help to take notice and felt it was his duty to try to help.

According to various historical documents, he decided that the only way to do this was to achieve enlightenment and pass on his enlightenment to others. He also determined that in order to do this, he would first have to give up all his worldly possessions and live without.

Perhaps it wasn’t that difficult to defy his parents, leave his palace and live in a state of fasting and doing without. I cant say ” Ive never walked in his shoes; however, I cant say this would be my first choice.

Most people don’t want to give up the good life. They think that money is a way to better our lives. That is why the lottery is so successful.

Health care at its best was probably nothing more than guesswork, around 500 BC.

Buddha wasn’t concerned about his own health but instead wanted to ease the suffering of those around him. He denied himself the comforts of living in the palace in order to do this.

Anyone who has rubbed the belly on a statue of Buddha knows that he did reach enlightenment, and through that enlightenment, he did finally pick up a fork or chopsticks and eat something.

Although we of course can’t really say for sure if the Buddha belly was a factual picture or just represents a spiritual abundance, modern day nutritionists would likely look at his statue and recognize that he was just a tad on the overweight side and would not recommend this as a healthy weight. But they cant deny the smile on his face.

Even when surrounded by the common man, no evidence supports his being a sickly sort. Of course, one might argue that this was the reward of enlightenment, but I think the power of positive thinking is the real source.

Buddha lived without anger, without hate, and didn’t seem the type to hold grudges. How many of us can say the same? It doesn’t have to be a big life tragedy to get one down. Sometimes its dwelling on the small stuff so much that we are consumed with negativity.

There are too many studies which have shown that a positive outlook can greatly improve or maintain ones health. Likewise, negativity, depression and the like can just as easily destroy ones health.

I agree but I also believe that one sometimes needs a starting point in order to focus. If weight loss and/or high blood pressure are your ailments, I advise as the best course or choice my Weight Loss Breeze program or my High Blood Pressure program. If its stress thats led to headaches you should try my Migraine and Headache program. They are all natural and guaranteed to show amazing results!
