Sri Paramahansa Yogananda on Health & Healing

(Excerpts from “Autobiography of a Yogi)

“Disease is generally considered a result of external material causes. Few people realize that it comes through the inaction of the Life Force (Prana Shakti) within. Medicine, massage and electricity merely help to stimulate the cells in such a way that the Life Energy is induced to return and resume its work of maintenance and repair.”
“All methods of healing are really indirect ways of rousing the life energy, which is the true and direct healer of all diseases.”
“When modern science will discover how to go deep into the subtle electromagnetic constitution of man, it will be able to correct almost any medical condition in ways that would seem almost miraculous today. In the future, healing will be effected more and more by use of various types of light rays. Light is what we are made of-not gross physical light, but the finer spiritualized light of prana, intelligent life energy. That light is the real essence of everything. This earth is not “earth” as you see it; it is light. But you cannot perceive that until you know the underlying astral world.”
“…..People should learn to draw more on the all-healing power of the mind, along with observance of healthful habits: proper eating, exercise, fresh air and sunshine, hygiene, physical and mental relaxation, and conscious recharging of the life force. The primary medicine of the future will be rays, the vibratory nature of which is more compatible with the molecular atomic nature of the human body. Healing rays can reach into the atomic disorder of cells in chronic diseases…”
“….Words saturated with sincerity, conviction, faith, and intuition are like highly explosive vibration bombs, which, when set off, shatter the rocks of difficulties and create the change desired….Illness may be cured by pulling out its hidden roots. That is why all affirmations of the conscious mind should be impressive enough to permeate the sub consciousness, which in turn automatically influences the conscious mind….. Strong conscious affirmations thus react on the mind and body through the medium of the sub consciousness. Still stronger affirmations reach not only the subconscious but also the super conscious mind….”
“A genuine smile distributes the cosmic current, prana, to every body cell. The happy man is less subject to disease, for happiness actually attracts into the body a greater supply of the universal life energy.”
“Never allow your mind to entertain thoughts of illness or limitation; you will see your body change for the better. Remember that mind is the power that is creating this body and if the mind is weak, the body becomes weak. Don’t grieve or worry about anything.”
“Do not over eat. Most persons die as a result of greediness and of ignorance of right dietary habits. … The hygiene of keeping the mind pure is superior to physical hygiene. … Prevent hardening of the arteries by proper diet. Save the heart from overwork; fear and anger overtax it…”
Fasting is a natural method of healing. … The bodily machinery thus has an opportunity to cleanse itself and to obtain a much-needed rest. Most diseases can be cured by judicious fasting. Unless one has a weak heart, regular short fasts have been recommended by the yogis as an excellent health measure. Another good method of physical healing is through suitable herbs or herb extracts.
Healthy persons possess a natural resistance to disease, and particularly to infections. Illness comes when the resisting power of the blood has been diminished by wrong eating or by overeating, or when overindulgence in sex has depleted the vital energy…”
