Spiritual Health

  Spiritual health is more than rituals —it’s a source of resilience that can protect and restore mental well-being. Increasingly, researchers are studying how spiritual practices and beliefs influence stress, anxiety, and depression. In this post, we summarize the science-backed spiritual health benefits and offer practical ways to use them safely and effectively. What “ spiritual health ” means in research? Spiritual health in scientific studies is usually defined broadly: a sense of meaning and purpose, connection to something larger than oneself, and engagement in practices such as meditation, prayer, mindfulness, or community worship. Researchers distinguish these dimensions from formal religiosity, although the two often overlap. Importantly, many studies evaluate specific interventions (mindfulness-based stress reduction, compassion training, yoga) rather than spirituality as an abstract concept. Key evidence-based benefits - 1) Reduces stress and lowers physiological arous...

Exploring spirituality, religions, and science in context of human health - spiritual health brings us to the ways we define health. WHO defined health as “A state of Complete physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being and not merely an absence of disease or infirmity.” This reflects a positive thought about our health. Though this idea is not new, in Ayurveda, our ancient knowledge of human health, the ‘balance’ between various physical, mental, and social functioning of the human body is considered a core value of health and wellness. Modern medicine is criticized for its mechanistic approach towards human health and wellness. Even the definition as mentioned above is considered incomplete and misinforming about human health by many people. The addition of the fourth dimension, the spiritual dimension, gives it completeness in some respects. Despite these criticisms, the WHO definition is widely accepted and applied as the standard definition of human health...

We have the fantastic world of our thoughts, which are the products of the biochemical reactions and movement of ions in and out of the neuron cells of our brain, we call them as 'Thought Processes.' We have evolved and developed them in a natural evolutionary process of millions of years. These are behind the creation of success story of the species Homo sapiens, which put them at the apex of the animal kingdom with its immense powers (both negative and positive). So, we have a factory of different thought processes in our brain which are churning out various thoughts continuously. We have roots of all our thoughts in our evolutionary history, and it's biology. During the journey of the evolution of thoughts in Homo sapiens from the basic animal thoughts to the modern human views of culture, science, and philosophy, Human ideas evolved with all their negativities as well. The capacities of the human brain are due to its effective thought processes. As the Homo sapiens ...

#SpiritualHealth Energy is the universe and universe is energy. We can understand it with this simple scientific logic that each and every object living or non-living is made of atoms, and atoms are made up of many subatomic particles, if we peek inside those atoms we will find different strata of energy spinning around a nucleus, we call it atomic energy. It is not possible for the universe to exist without energy. Similarly, life is energy. Plants store energy from the sun and pass it to food chain which runs the life in the animal kingdom. From the strict laws of physics, energy cannot be divided into the categories of positive energy and negative energy, but we have positive and negative impact of energy on our health, social and cultural life. So, that energy which have good results for our health and life, we call it positive energy and if it is adverse then we call it as negative energy. We can understand it with a simple example, suppose somebody run for a distance to d...

YOU CAN BUY THE BOOK "SPIRITUAL HEALTH" HERE #SpiritualHealth Religiosity can potentially change our thoughts to extremist thoughts. In such a situation someone can kill themselves or can kill others. We are witnessing both the circumstances around us globally. When eleven people of one family in Delhi kill themselves on the name of some belief or religious ritual, indeed, it is the transformation of religious thought process into an extreme thought process. It turned into a psychological disorder, which appeared in its cruel forms without any apparent signs and symptoms since religious rituals are considered normal in society, and when we noticed it, it has spoiled many lives. It is evident in all such incidences in the recent past. In our society, we erroneously take religion and spirituality as the same or synonymous. In fact, we follow a religion, belief, cult or guru for spiritual peace and it is their prime duty to nurture and develop our spirit...

          (You Can Buy "Spiritual Health" written by Dr. Mahesh Bhatt Here) Science is the systemic study of nature. Science is the result of our critical thinking process. It started with our critical thinking ability to look into the different natural processes, and initially, we ended up calling them miracles of nature. So, it pushed us to make room for hypothetical thinking. In this process, we created many possible explanations to understand all that was happening around us, in that process we created many theoretical concepts, including the existence of some supernatural power (God)—people of different faiths name it and imagine it in various forms. All of this was a continuous effort by our brain to know Nature and its functioning. We created many mythological characters that can do what our brain thinks to do. Characters that can treat our illnesses, characters that can fly, characters that can see the things in remote areas, c...

आप इस किताब को यहाँ क्लिक कर खरीद सकते हैं अतिधार्मिकता हमारे विचारों को अतिरेक से भर देती है। इसमें कोई दूसरे की जान ले लेता है तो कोई अपनी जान दे देता है। दोनों ही उदाहरण हम अपने चारों ओर देख रहे हैं। दिल्ली में जब एक ही परिवार के 11 लोग अपनी जान दे देते हैं, वो भी किसी विश्वास या धार्मिक आस्था के अनुष्ठान के तहत, तो ए भी निश्चित तौर पर अतिधार्मिक विचारों का अतिरेकी (extreme) रूपांतरण है। ये सीधे तौर पर एक मानसिक ब्याधि बन जाता है, लेकिन इसका आभास किसी को नहीं हो पाता, क्योंकि समाज मे पूजा करना या धार्मिक होना कोई बुराई नहीं माना जाता है ओर जब तक पता लगता है तो तब तक बहुत देर हो चुकी होती है जैसा कि उक्त घटना में हुआ लगता है। हमारे समाज में हम धर्म एवं आध्यात्म को एक ही मानने की भूल कर बैठते हैं। हम कोई भी धर्म, गुरु, या पंथ की शरण में आध्यात्मिक शांति के लिए ही जाते हैं। अगर देखा जाय तो विश्व के सभी धर्मों, विश्वासों, गुरुओं आदि का काम यही है कि वो हमारी आध्यात्मिकता को पोषित करें, लेकिन होता इसका उल्टा है। इन सभी जगहों पर अध्यात्मिकता के नाम पर धार्मिकता को बढ़ा...

Being a surgeon and practicing surgery for more than two decades, most of my working hours were full of emotions filled with smiles, sufferings, hope, helplessness, happiness, and tears. We doctors see happiness and smiles with a lot of hope with the birth of a child at one moment and rushing a newborn to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) next moment. We faced almost all kind of different difficult challenges of life and death entwined with many social, economic and political problems. Most of the time we consider it as a part of our daily professional life, but many times it shakes our scientific, religious and cultural knowledge and beliefs. This unique nature of our work with its urgency and emergency to save the precious human life create a complexness in our natural human thought processes. Health in itself is a complicated issue. In this broader context of health, doctors are supposed to treat the patients and provide advice for prevention, promotion, and maintenance of ...

Any belief system is made up of specific thoughts and dogma, these thoughts and doctrine make the core of it and work as a cohesive force for binding and attracting its followers for different aims and objectives. Most of the time these aims and objectives are defined by the various human needs, those may be social, cultural, religious, and spiritual. Therefore, the thoughts behind any belief system have two components, one is the component of humanity and human values, it has the ideas of love, brotherhood, and compassion among its followers and the second component which potentially become larger in due course of time is its practices and rituals which create its identity. Interestingly in all belief systems, the first component will remain common, it makes the foundation for their existence. It is the second component which is projected as the face of the different belief systems since it separates one from another. Many myths and conceptions are created, they are required for tw...
