Meditation Directly Increases your 'self-healing thoughts'
You may have a medically fit body. That does not mean you are healthy. Of course, I can say from my experience of having seen millions of people, 99 per cent of people who do not have the 'self-healing clarity' in their system are never able to maintain even physical health.
In the last five years of my public life, I have initiated around 1.2 million disciples. With that experience, I am sharing with you, not just to boast or be proud. With this authority, with this experience, with this understanding, I tell you, a person who does not have the self-healing clarity and understanding cannot even be physically healthy.
When I say, 'self-healing understanding,' I mean the understanding, the thoughts, the clarity which bring you out of depression when you fall into depression.
Just a year ago, I did a small research. I chose some of the people who had been through some meditation programs and some spiritual studying. I asked them to write whatever comes in their mind without editing for 20 minutes. Then I also asked people who are not exposed to spirituality to write the same thing. When I read those papers, it was a very shocking revelation.
In the case of a person who is not exposed to spirituality, if he had written 100 thoughts, more than 80 were directing him towards more and more depression. Only 20 thoughts were 'self-healing' or bringing him out of depression. But in the case of the people who are exposed to spirituality and meditation, I saw that more than 60 percent of their thoughts were self-healing. Only 40 percent were towards depression.
This is the power of self-healing thoughts, self-healing clarity, the touch of the Truth.
Only a person who has had a touch of the Truth in his life can maintain health. Understand, when I say health, I mean even physical health. Otherwise it is impossible even to maintain physical health, especially in this so-called modern society, with the stress and pressures of daily life.
Understand, you are afraid for your health. Sometimes Truth will be strong. There is no other way. But I tell you, if you just allow the Truth to enter you, it will create so much ecstasy in your inner space and so much energy to expand yourself in the outer space.
Knowledge-weapons to Combat Depression
The knowledge of the Truth is what I call 'knowledge-weapons' or 'shaastra-shastra'. Whenever depression attacks you, suffering attacks you; life brings different scenes in front of you. This shaastra-shastra, knowledge weapon, can be so powerful, that you can just come out of the depression. So, even if the truth is too much, don't bother. Try to digest, assimilate and keep it in the corner of your heart. Let the shaastra-shastras be stored inside you.
The more and more shaastra-shastras you have, naturally the depression will have fear about you! It is just like if you have a huge army, naturally the other country will be afraid of attacking you. You don't even have to attack. The moment you display your power, the other country will think twice before attacking you. In the same way, the more and more you accumulate the self-healing thoughts, the knowledge weapons, shaastra-shastras inside your system, you will see that depression will have fear to come near you.
Even now, the Truths which I am sharing may be little strong. But I tell you, if you want the Truth to do the process of healing in you, it has to be digested and internalized.
