Two Fold Attitude of Mind and Soul

-
There are two main ways to think about our existence: one is relying on our own efforts, which is independent, and the other is depending on a higher power, which is dependent. Both ways of thinking are valid and can be embraced at different times. This dual perspective is supported not just by logic but also by how our bodies are built and how they work physically and mentally. 

Our body operates through two main nerve systems: the sympathetic and the motor nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system sends vital energy to our organs, and this energy is often referred to as God, nature, life, or the divine. It controls essential functions like heartbeats, blood circulation, digestion, breathing, and other automatic processes. 

Although we don't fully understand this controlling force, we recognize it as incredibly powerful, smart, and kind. The more we learn about our body's anatomy, physiology, and psychology, the more amazed we become at its incredible complexity and how everything works together. Every moment, countless mechanical, chemical, and psychological wonders are happening within us.

Who or what is behind these amazing feats? We still don't know, but every second of our lives relies on the endless care and wisdom of these mysterious forces. Humans are influenced by a controlling power, but not all of our actions are automatic. Inside us, a divine intelligence exists, acting with its own mind. This intelligence has the freedom to desire, choose, and act. It creates the brain and the nerve centers that manage our voluntary actions. From these brain centers, it sends commands through motor nerves to our muscles, making us walk, laugh, eat, speak, and more. This independent aspect of humans is what we call the ego or intelligence. It allows us to desire, reason, plan, and make choices that can lead to our own success or failure, whether physically, mentally, morally, or spiritually. 

This is where humans differ from animals. Animals can take care of themselves shortly after they are born, but human brains take a long time to develop. Newborns have very limited voluntary abilities because their brains are still blank and need to be filled with experiences through conscious actions. Before they can think, reason, speak, or walk, they must first develop specific brain centers for each of these skills. Through consistent effort, reasoning, willpower, and self-control gradually emerge. In contrast, animals are born with the necessary skills to survive and do not need to develop higher faculties, which makes them less responsible.

Dr. K. DINSHAW MEHTA

-
Dr. Mehta was affectionately known as 'Dadaji' by his followers, which means elder brother in North and Central Indian languages. His mother was a deeply religious woman who held the Prophet Zarathustra close to her heart and prayed to Him for hours every day. Back then, Jalna didn't have electric lights. One day, she saw a bearded man with long hair dressed in white robes enter her room through a closed door. To her, he looked like the Prophet Zarathustra. He knelt beside her, raised his hand over her womb, and said something like, 'This is the reward for all your prayers.' Then, he walked out through the wall. After that, she found a white rose and a red rose on her bed. Following this, she had a normal pregnancy and gave birth to a baby boy named Dinshah in a Bombay hospital on June 5, 1903. From a young age, Dinshah stood out with his unique personality. By the time he was between 5 and 7 years old, he figured out that the goal of life was to achieve perfection....

Dr. JOHN H TILDEN

 Dr. John Henry Tilden was born on January 21, 1851, in Van Berenburg, Illinois, to a physician father named Dr. Joseph G. Tilden. He studied medicine at the Eclectic Medical Institute, which was established in 1830 as a response to the traditional allopathic and homeopathic medical practices. He graduated in 1872 with a medical degree. Dr. Tilden began his medical career in Nokomis, Illinois, and continued there until 1890 when he relocated to Denver. In Denver, he set up his practice in the downtown area alongside other doctors. Eventually, he opened a sanitarium in a more suburban part of the city, which he managed along with a school until 1924, when he sold the institution for about half of what he had invested in its growth. He purchased two properties on Pennsylvania in Denver, established a new sanitarium and school, and had to borrow some money from a friend to fund the purchases. This school operated until the doctor's passing on September 1, 1940. During his early practi...

IGNATZ VON PECZELY

It's clear that many centuries ago, Tibetan monks understood that the color of a person's iris could indicate health issues, and there were individuals skilled in reading the eye to identify illnesses just by looking closely at it. For example, Dr. Andreas Kerner, who lived from 1786 to 1862, wrote about Friedericke Hauffe, known as the 'Seeress of Prevorst,' who had an amazing ability to diagnose diseases. She just gazed into the patient's eyes, and in that moment, she could pinpoint where the illness was located in the body. Oekros Lordo, a 70-year-old man from Karhzag in Southern Europe, had the ability to read diseases in the body through this method. The concept of Iridiagnosis as a scientific practice was first introduced by a Hungarian doctor named Ignaz Peczely. Like many significant discoveries, the idea of diagnosing through the eye came from a small incident. Peczely shared his experience like this: "When I was just eleven, I attempted to catch an ow...
