Day 3: Body-Mind Relationship With Respect To Present Moment

There is an intimate link between mind and body, so we cannot separate them for the purpose of spiritual seeking. It should be cautioned, however, that spiritual growth doesn’t require that a person be perfectly healthy and highly intelligent. In everyday life, anyone in reasonable health has met the biological requirement for meditation, which is the main activity for spiritual success. You have approached a very interesting topic, however, which is how the mind can transform the body. Thanks to recent discoveries in neuroscience, we now know that everyday experiences alter the brain and the output of genes. This means that everything you think, do, and say, all your daily dietary and exercise habits, as well as your emotions, create changes in the body.

This realisation greatly frees us from the old idea that ‘biology is destiny.’ In fact, biology is much more flexible and fluid than anyone ever suspected in the past. This realisation opens up the possibility for conscious evolution, the ability to direct our own future by our lifestyle choices today. Biology is coming much closer to spirit than people suspect, and that self-directed transformation of brain, genetic expression, and physiological functions will be the wave of the future. We are on the verge of tremendous shifts in the mind-body connection that should have major spiritual implications, too.

I have been reading books of thinkers such as Eckhart Tolle, Wayne Dyer, Paramhansa Yogananda, Ramana Maharshi, Osho, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev. All of them, in one voice, exhort a person to meditate and live in the moment. This is the essence of all religions.
