Love is the basic requisite for the 4 dimensions of health...

Love.... love? Teacher ... your type of love is very boring....

Teacher, you are talking on how to be a healthier and a happier person, what is there to do with love? One of my students asked me while I was preparing my speech. I only know 'that' love.... about....'i love you & you love me' in the films by great stars...

What have I to write about this thing called 'love'? Love. yes, love. As I have written a few days ago, we have to look at love as a whole, not the love like cheap thrills or romance in books or movies or videos that has been exaggerated or put up just for a show so as to have you entertained. Do not always emphasize on the physical act of love that only takes up a few percent of what is love. Don't be reminded of such sexual acts whenever you see the word love. It is not about making love, but love in the making. A genuine love should be radiating and reflected in our eyes, our face and expressions, and in everyday's words, actions and thoughts.

The universal language of human at the beginning of this universe where all living creatures lived together in harmony and knew no evils, spoke no evils, did no evils waasss Love...no! issss LOVE!.

It is LOVE! It was not until a great change took place where these creatures started to understand and recognize sins. It all started with eating the forbidden fruit. The forbidden fruit which was strictly reminded to be left alone, was plucked, eaten and shared...... When Eve was lured into temptation, she failed the test miserably! Ever since then, sin was born.


From there, the tree of knowledge opened human's eyes and minds..... Humans started to see good and bad, the right and wrong...........From then on, humans know about shame, about lies, about deceit, about jealousy, about unkind acts, about hate, about envy, about the many negatives... Worst of all, when we humans haven't master the art of self-discipline, self-control, master the power of choice, and haven't actually understood what is GENUINE LOVE as expected of a human, problems arises......And evil took rule for some who acquired the dark side of knowledge.

Not until one can master and control our mind, our emotions, our body to achieve spiritual health that the world will be at peace. Do you think that all these terrors and misfortunes and disasters will come to an end one day?

Here comes an interesting question that I encountered long ago... one of my students asked me.... Why did God put that tree there and let the 'girl' have access to the fruit so easily? God can predict, God can do anything, everything, nothing is impossible to HIM... It is His fault too.... I laughingly told him that yes, maybe to you, God is to be blamed, but maybe it is you who is actually to be blamed. YOU CAN CHOOSE NOT TO GO NEAR THE TREE AND NOT TO EAT THAT FORBIDDEN FRUIT, right? One can choose to say 'No!' so, it is one's choice to do it or not to! haha...whose fault is it?

Our Creator loves us so much that He gives us freedom, an uncommon freedom of choice. Like a father who loves us so much that sometimes he spoils us by too much pampering, though knowing that it will spoil us..... But once the dam burst, nothing can be spared, no place can be saved, as this thing 'evil' slowly seeped into human's mind, creating havoc, creating disharmony, creating fear and hate.......until today....and all of us are suffering from the aftermaths of it.

Until one day, when humans understand this power of love, contributing in self-awareness and the awakening of what should be done and what not to be done. Only then, he is immune to this sufferings or pain and stay detached.

Try to understand before accepting, Try to evaluate and find out for yourself....search for the truth. Truth was the answer, is the answer and will be the answer. It will be never changing, and truth will remain as truth. Forgive me, this is just a christian way of explaining things. But why am I reminding you friends about this? What is this connection link to this 4 dimension of health? I am taking this risk in explaining things in my way of accepting truth and love! One can choose to believe or not to. But be aware that there is this spiritual health that all of us one day will realize perhaps now or perhaps too late......when our spirit is released from our body..

So, what is love here to do with the 4 dimensions of health?

Yes, there is....
