Real health

You may have everything that the world can offer, but if you don't have peace, serenity, silence, ecstasy, you will still remain poor...

Real health has to happen somewhere inside you, in your subjectivity, in your consciousness, because consciousness knows no birth, no death, it is eternal. And to be healthy in consciousness means: first, to be awake; second, to be harmonious; third, to be ecstatic; and fourth, to be compassionate. If these four things are fulfilled, one is inwardly healthy. ...The four are the four pillars of inner health... Health is the feeling of well-being, a certain at-onement with existence.
