A man’s body is the most intelligent, self-correcting, auto-immune system. But somehow, we trust our mind rather than the inherent intelligence of our body. There starts the problem and all our worries. 

A father camel was explaining to the son camel the body structure of their species. He said “You know, we have humps in our body to store water for a few days when we are in the desert”.

The son asked, “Why are our eye lashes so long?”. The father replied,  “To protect our eyes from sand storms”. 

The son then asked,  “Why do we have such bulbous feet?”. The father replied, “So that we can travel fast in the desert”. 

“Dad”, asked the son, “what are we then doing in the zoo?”. 

You see, our body has been designed so beautifully, if we just allow it to run on its natural intelligence, it will function well. The moment you impose conditioning on the body, you start experiencing difficulties. In the Himalayas, the sadhus, wandering mendicants, live inside caves. They are the healthiest people ever. Come sun or rain or snow, they continue to live; their body adjusts itself to the prevailing conditions. We just have to trust nature and our own immune system. But somehow, we keep imposing our worries and our mental make-up on our body. This is the root cause of all diseases.
