Discovering the Positives
My New Year’s Message
Dr Ann
Tarot
‘The challenge humans face is that as adults we must unlearn all logic and reason taught to us as children. The world and indeed the universe is illogical and impossible for our brains to comprehend. In ancient Indian tradition we have known this for centuries but only now the western world is catching up. The discovery of quantum physics is the perfect example of this, scientists are beginning to accept the irrational and illogical.
You will drive yourself mad if you try to rationalise your cancer. You will never know how or why you got it. All you can do is appreciate the world around you, wonder at the illogical force nature is and live more simply in this world.’ Dr Dhanraj, Vana Retreat, India, 2018 (I’ve paraphrased his message slightly!).
