Health and disease

Health means disease free body in the general sense. And we call a condition ‘disease’ which invites doctor’s attention; and doctor’s attention is required only when it is not bearable or when it is beyond our control or when it is visible. Practically it should be the other way round. If we are health conscious even in the least, disease invites our attention long before that of doctor’s. And if we are health trained, we can know before it invites even our own attention. Reason is very simple. If we regularly violate the laws of Nature (which we do because of lack of practical health education) with respect to our health and are aware that these are being violated, we can foresee the results. Disease is not something like a rogue who comes from behind the bushes and attacks us at random. But it is the result only of our health ignorance or health illiteracy and lack of health training. Thus it (disease) comes through our intentional or unintentional invitations.

And most of the time, the diseases thus acquired, we pass them on to the ones whom we love the most in the world – our children, by way of heredity. Then they suffer all their life not because of theirs but because of our faults. What an injustice! Isn’t it?
