LEGACY OF A JOURNEY

Let's continue from yesterday. We must accept(whether we understand it or not) that we are indeed made up of three components which work together(or not) as our lives go on. A physical body made up of flesh and bones if you were the workings of which are known to most of us(take in material, produce heat, digest, motorize, and so on). The mental body or the cognitive processes of our existence is carried out in the part of the body called the brain. Along with the neuro pathways and the system of nerve cells within and without it. Electro-chemical is the mechanics of this function but far from how it actually operates. As advance as we have become in modern science, we have yet to discover all the inner workings of the brain. Suffice to say that our daily actions of joy,hate,learning,working,likes and dislikes are all decided within this system of our body. Then there is the part which connects us to the universes unseen, the realm of the spirit, Ether, the world of pure energies and no material matter. As an old Darwish I have come to accept(whether I understand it or not) that this connection is made through the heart cavity though not in any tangible or measurable way. Now then the most important part of this sermon folks is that the three parts of us have to work in harmony and be healthy, otherwise we as a whole human will not be healthy. A sick body soon causes the mind to think up weird thoughts and make not so sound judgment calls. The reverse is true as well, a sick mind, will bring much physical damage to the body through both chemical and physical patterns of actions. Each of these three parts of our being needs its own special nourishment in order to function well and maintain health. I'll discuss this tomorrow maybe God willing.
