Cancer: a call to bring forth the Psychic
By Monica Gulati - Jul 15, 2019
Cancer is an illness that has become quite commonplace. Some years ago, one rarely heard of people having this illness, but a few years hence we encounter it pretty frequently. I had the privilege of knowing this illness through my own experience with it at a young age. And what it revealed to me did not reflect its usually publicised image. For me, it turned out to be the biggest gift in this life, without which I would have just roamed around wandering and clueless. Can cancer or any other illness be a friend? A true friend who mentors you and does not let you stray from your path, your raison d’être?

A major part of each one of us has been ‘constructed’ since birth. Adverse habits arise out of this construction and retard our physical and psychological well-being. In this article, the author leans on personal experience and looks at the sources and solutions to this affliction from the perspective of personal growth. He regards the subconscious and the physical mind as principal agents behind the spreading of habit. To conquer habit one needs to reach a higher poise of being, in other words, through the spirit or soul. The shadows of our nature can be filled with light and consciousness in various ways. Working on habit is perfect training for life and the process of transformation can be invited as soon as habits are cleared and conquered.
