When I was ill, I would have been in denial of this...

Many years on I understand what is said, and can see myself..

If you watch....bear with it to the end.....good luck

This is absolutely WONDERFUL~!!!! I agree with all this Guru has to say.... He is so 'practiced' at it that it is EASY for HIM! but this is SO encouraging... I know many people (sometimes have to include myself, too!) like to insist that 'they can't help it'... that they 'can't do anything about it'... and that it is some physical malfunction that is causing their problem... rather than to OWN IT and really want to work hard to overcome it...

I have no aversion to this because I am metaphysical by spirituality...and yet I, too, have to fight the Pity Pot Thinking at times...I sure was on that kick yesterday!!

I put this link into Favorites and I want to THANK YOU for posting it...

[stde in reply to BettyA]

Thank goodness !

I was concerned about posting this.....it is a bit hard hitting if you are not well and blaming the world....

But I fact I found out through suffering that my biggest enemy was the " poor me,s"...

Through practise I,ve managed let go this crazy thinking.....why me?......why not me!

God did not give me a "pass go card" for life...

Every happening...good of bad....view as just another " Life Event"

I wish you well...x

A great link Stde... this link shows how important our THOUGHTS are in causing a lot of our suffering, if we can control them we will come a long way. I practice daily and have withdrawn from face book as a lot of what I saw on there made me angry, so I stopped going there as I realized it was myself bringing things into my life which invoked anger in me when I could choose to have things in my day which instead, brought me peace and contentment. Many will argue with the theory we self induce a lot of our own suffering, it is a shame because we do! Thank you hope you are well xx

Thanks Pat, keep well x

Yes an interesting view on life. If life could all be that simple.

Mind over matter on occasions will work and there is many well written reports in the west that in ways agrees with the aforementioned doctrine. Chronic pain is one of many conditions where someone has RA or other critical conditions. This is a chronic condition.

Chronic pain with one person with a same condition with another in the next door bed will feel that discomfort more severe than that patient next door, Pain and its severity, even its prognosis can be very marked.and suffered at different levels

I agree with what this Swami says to a certain extent where some chronic pain is concerned also how some mental illness affects some patients. Mental Illness has many causes and sometimes is formed with people dwelling on the past.

With some mental health problems they can be caused by a Reactive depression that is caused by a Chronic illness, even some acute problems. The patients brain may need a chemical to boost its well being and this can help the sufferer get over their complaint.

Also we learn from family when young, we also suffer life sadness through death and illness, dementia is a good example, to watch a loved on die of a thousand cuts ??.

Some illnesses can be sorted like in the above video. Other problems need a further look into and treated in a proactive way through your GP
