A book review on "Quantum Healing: Exploring the Frontiers of Mind-Body Medicine" by Deepak Chopra

Deepak Chopra is a renowned physician trained in both India and the US Currently in endocrinology, he was also the former chief of staff at the New England Memorial Hospital in Stoneham, Massachusetts and the founding president of the American Association for Ayurvedic Medicine . His knowledge of Western and Eastern medicine gives him a more complete and complete understanding of the origin of diseases.

Hippocrates, the father of medicine, thought that nature cured disease and, although modern medicine is necessary for emergency purposes, it has recently moved 90 ° away from Hippocrates’ original vision. The shift has been toward medications and surgery, but many of today’s modern illnesses can be prevented by maintaining a healthy mind and body. These solutions lack long-term sustainability and lack the intelligence of the body. Understanding this requires a different approach called “quantum healing.” Deepak Chopra describes quantum healing as “the ability of one mode of consciousness (the mind) to spontaneously correct the errors of another consciousness (the body).”

The quantum perspective began with Einstein, who discovered that nature was not always predictable and expanded on Newton’s linear physics. Planck discovered the measurable nature of energy, which transforms non-matter into matter, time into space, and mass into energy. Later, the Irish physicist John Bell and the English astronomer Sir Arthur Eddington believed in a connection between our thoughts and the universe. An invisible force converts (non-material) thought into (material) form. We know that neurotransmitters perfectly combine the mind with the body, and DNA builds RNA, a mirror copy of DNA, which performs tasks in the body. From a quantum perspective, as we think and feel, we create chemical changes in the brain that trigger a chain reaction of bodily responses. Both good and bad thoughts alter the field of intelligence and therefore the body for better or for worse. In this way, our stream of consciousness is the free flow of intelligence between mind and body.

Ayurveda is a medical perspective whereby symptoms are controlled through care. In Ayurveda, each part of the body is correlated with certain herbs, colors, minerals, and even sounds. The use of meditation and techniques such as the primordial sound is requested to initiate the healing. Meditation brings awareness of thought patterns, while primordial sound uses one vibration to heal another. Usually Om, pronounced AUM, is the vibration or sound that is used to represent the collective vibration or sound of all living things and is a way of connecting with your true undistorted self. Ayurveda differs from Western Medicine in that it believes that war (disease) begins within the body. Louis Pasteur’s germ theory, the cornerstone of Western medicine, believes that war (disease) begins outside the body. However, if even Louis Pasteur himself admitted that his controversial theory was wrong on his deathbed. Don’t you think it’s time we dropped their theory?

Love and compassion are our highest qualities and in this state, we cannot contradict ourselves. True love and compassion for ourselves and for all other beings enables us to live in accordance with nature. One way to show love and compassion for everyone is with what we eat. We can eat in support of nature and ourselves, but the main guardian of health is the mind. Carcinogens, stress, chemicals, fatty and processed or sugary foods, and diets rich in animal protein can induce cancer, but ultimately the body can heal itself. In the medical field, spontaneous healings are rare and not well understood. Such unpredictable recoveries occur at the quantum level and are beyond what modern science can measure or record, they have no form.

The wisdom of the ancient Rishis of India was recorded in the ancient Vedic texts and predated the Egyptian pyramids by thousands of years. These texts revealed many of the concepts found in quantum healing and Ayurveda. The rishis discussed three subjective states of consciousness: waking, sleeping, and dreaming, and a fourth non-subjective state that is reached only during meditation or prayer. This fourth state is known as our most natural state and from here we can destroy our illusions and rest in our own true nature. The Rishis also believed that all beings were not restricted by time and space, but were instead infinite. So think and feel from the heart, not from the head, think well and feel good. Act in accordance with nature and nature will always provide you in many ways. “In the deepest reality beyond space and time, we can all be members of one body.” -Sir James Jeans
