“There are many possible causes for an illness, but regardless, there is always a contradiction at the level of the soul. This contradiction means that there are two opposing forces at work. The result of this tug-of-war of these opposing forces is a crack in the substance of the soul that manifests in the physical body in accordance with one’s genetics and a series of physical, psychological and spiritual laws, which we may simply call karma. For this reason, this contradiction needs to be known and understood, because it is only through this comprehension that a prognosis can be made.”
Sri Prem Baba
