Influence of the 'influenza'

We dismay the threat of something more then the consequence of the respective. Lets take an example of the very 'Swine flu' which has been threatening us more then it can harm us in actual. Most of the people have the immunity to resist such a flu naturally, some people who don't suffer from the same. And with the lifestyle we follow in this modern world the fear of getting affected increases.

Where does the immunity in us come from? The food we have and the water we drink, the air we breathe and the health we maintain (exercise intended). Truly speaking, we consume none of the above in its pure and best form. Food is junk, water is impure mostly, air is polluted and exercises are not an interest of the common mass. Immunity comes from within, we have to change ourselves to improve the way we live.

Well coming to an another point, I had an interaction with an uncle of mine, he is a retired Doctor and has knowledge of the world. He has lived in US for sometime and told me something very explicit and shocking then.

He told me that most of the viruses are developed in the laboratories of the American pharmaceutical majors, only some our natural. H1N1, AIDS, Bird flu etc. are some of it. The virus is spread among the mass in sometime and only those corporations have the actual cure of the disease. Now when the influenza has already gripped our nation, the central government will be sending some billions of dollars to the corporation for the vaccine and cure. Developing an indigenous vaccine takes time and we don't have enough it and yes with the R&D level of India, it would be better off to get it imported.

Beat it!! the Companies play with peoples lives for profit making. It is not just the Pharmaceutical sector which are so much into unethical and inhumane activities, in fact many sectors are. What we can do in maximum is to increase immunity in ourselves and check any kind of influenza does not affect the mass. We should also develop our the Pharmaceutical R&D to combat such pandemic diseases.

Disclaimer: I have no proof of the above but the source of information is very reliable.

Understanding fear !

Marie Curie rightly said "Nothing in life is to be feared, It is only to be understood."

The fear we live with are deep feelings inside us because of a danger or peril around us. The danger is more antcipated then it is present in actual. The internal fear and the external fear are the two kind of fears we live in.

Internal fears are one which reside in us with our consent, it is very much in our control but we dont apprehend the fact that we can control it.

"Fear of losing acceptance of people around, fear of losing respect, fear of being wrongly interpreted, fear of losing trust of people around, fear of being considered “less”, fear of losing importance, fear of losing psychological security, fear of losing dear ones and many more. "

All of the internal fears are formulated because of three things: sorrow of past, anxeity of present and concernment of future.

In spiritual circles it is called that man can overcome his internal fears if he really works upon it, meditation and spiritual devotion are just some ways to overcome fear within us, there are a lot more ways. The dharmic religions (Dharmic religions: Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism and Jainism) allow you to be an atheist, because dharmic religions want a man to look within himself and control his feelings to be a perfect 'human', Dharmic religions agree with the thought that god resides within ourselves and that is what should we preach that is why we are allowed to be an atheist.

If we really understand what fear is, then there is nothing in actual to fear about.
