How Our Mind, Body and Soul Became So Disconnected

History is a very powerful tool which certainly helps us to have a better understanding of the present facts. We hear a lot about how the mind, body and soul have become so disconnected and there is this avalanche of alternative therapies which try to make ourselves whole again. Let’s look historically and see if we can understand it better.

The Sumerians were the first known civilization around 4000 B.C. According to historians they were very organised socially and politically. In the science field they developed studies of mathematics, astronomy and other sciences. They also studied and developed astrology and had a strong belief that the stars controlled all events in the universe as well as our fortune. Polytheistic the Sumerians thought the gods controlled all aspects of their lives including the forces of nature.

The next stage of evolution brought us the almost unbeatable power of the church – the age of priesthood. The church axed the worshiping to gods and established their own truth and laws and proclaimed their omnipotence over everything including death condemnation – Welcome to Inquisition Time! Any intuitions, significant dreams or science findings could be a reason for a human barbecue. The disconnection had begun.

However the truth always finds a way to emerge. Nicholas Copernicus to the horror of the church proclaimed that the sun was at the centre of our universe, not the earth. He was lucky enough to die from natural causes before the church barbecued him. Later Galileo Galilei presented Copernicus’s ideas as proven facts but he was forced to recant and was house arrested by the church. Some people say that he was not burned because he and the Pope were friends.

Later came Rene Descartes announcing to the world that the universe and humans were mere machines that worked like clocks. Then Isaac Newton came with his classic mechanics finds plus a lot more. The mechanic approach was then applied to everything within the sciences. Disconnection was strongly implemented!

The discoveries of these scientists were crucial to our material development today but it came with a high price. We became disconnected in such a way that our minds and bodies were dissected and disassociated by the medicine science. Leading us to believe that if we are not connected within ourselves then, the events outside are not related to us at all. Truth again had to find a way to emerge.

Einstein then came with the quantum theory saying that the so called physical world was not physical at all. Einstein along with other scientists investigated the matter in such a profound level that they were absolutely amased with the finding – PURE ENERGY – something that was more comparable with intelligence, consciousness or information. Re-connection had now begun!

The little atoms in their orbits were energy packets and between them is this pure energy so powerful that one cubic centimetre – a sugar cube – has more energy than all solid matter in the universe. Mind blower!

The quantum theory basically says that everything in the universe is connected and our intention can impact results.

The world is changing radically and time urges us to be more sensible in the way we behave, in the way we think, in the way we perceive everything around us. It is time to stop, observe and change.

You must be thinking how will this information help me? If everything is energy and as scientifically proved energy attracts similar energy, then thoughts, behaviour and beliefs are energy with a specific consonance being sent out and attracting similar energy. We are creating our own reality every second….. Now I ask, what can YOU do to make this information work for you?
