…”The rot set in during the 19th century, he says, when expectations of medicine changed dramatically after the discovery of micro-organisms. “It created a desire for all mental suffering to be understood in the same way as physical suffering, such as smallpox or cholera. To consider craziness as another treatable disease which originates in biology had tremendous appeal.””…
One of the most powerful statements of reasoning on medicine.
Be it physical, mental or spiritual health !
There is an implicit and explicit connection between RELIGION(READ MY LIPS – CATHOLIC, MEDICINE AND LAW) BASED on the GREEK & LATIN roots that makes the conduct of a human all that more desperate in search for meaning.
The problem is the modern disconnection between all of those 3 disciplines and insistent explanations and hardline positions that they are separately SOLE SOURCES OF AUTHORITY EXCLUSIVE OF THE OTHERS.
What and how would you expect a physical human body to react to the daily mega dose onslaught of chemicals in their environments and within their bodies. A ‘w’holistic body attempts to re-balance itself on it’s own without outside interference to settle into a homeostatic state. The process follows precisely accurate Universal Laws of Thermodynamics as it’s guiding principle. Matter and Mental states follow thereafter. What to outsiders looks and seems out of sort – is that the historical context has been missed completely, they are simple observing the end results of an equation over time.
To simply wave a magic drug wand prescription and call me in the morning is insufficient and entirely missed the point of the Hippocratic Act.
Doctors are not all to blame. Indoctrinated with mantras and sincere beliefs of trying to help patients, when all else fails they too become desperate to understand and pursue every possible avenue in search of the fountain of youth to no avail.
Therein lies the problem – the disconnect from keeping things simple and back to basics in the way that we used languages over time to impart wisdom, knowledge and most of all the collective innate abilities of each human being to empower themselves with the power and light of God’s NRGY to self heal and break the chain of endless misery.
Enlightenment is within the reach and grasp of any and all human being willing to obtain it through self endeavor, determination and an flexible open mind understanding where limits and boundaries are to maintain self control over that which would create harm.
