Meditation And Health

Each original quality of the self or soul is specially required for
nourishing and empowering one human body system. The quality of *peace* is
responsible for taking care of the respiratory system, *joy* for the
gastrointestinal system, *love* for the circulatory system, *bliss* for the
endocrine system, *knowledge* for the brain and nervous system, *purity* for
the immune system and the five senses and *power* for the muscular and
skeletal systems.

*Each one of us has at least one body system, which is most prone to
disease. When our mind is under the influence of stressful emotions, there
is a decrease in the flow, from the soul to this body system, of that
quality which is required by it for its nourishment, which leads to the
development of disease in this system over a period of time
*e.g. when an individual with a weak respiratory system is in a negative
state of mind, there is a decrease in the flow of the quality of peace to
the respiratory system (refer to first paragraph) which in turn can lead to
a disorder like asthma.
