Halo, wise and
health-conscious viewers.
Today on Healthy Living,
we will present
a fresh perspective
on living an energetic
and vibrant life.
Supreme Master Ching Hai,
a renowned
humanitarian, artist,
and spiritual teacher, is
the author of the book
“The Realization of
Health: Returning to
the Natural
and Righteous Way
of Living.”
A compilation of excerpts
from her lectures spanning
more than 20 years,
the work presents the
simple but profound truth
that everyone is
a potential self-healer and
that health is a choice
that humans ultimately
make for themselves.
In this important book,
she introduces
a natural way of living –
a life filled with serenity,
a deep sense
of well-being,
confidence and happiness.
“The Realization
of Health” helps us
understand what
our body really needs to
take care of itself and
how diseases are formed
in the first place.
Those who have read
this book, including
health professionals,
teachers, scientists,
and others have gained
much inspiration from it.
A pioneer in cancer
treatment through diet,
Dr. Mei Hsiang- yang,
a dentist from
Formosa (Taiwan) is
founder of the program
“The Long Chain
against Cancer,”
which emphasizes
bodily detoxification
and vegetarian foods as
necessary and effective
cures for all forms
of cancer.
Dr. Mei’s methods
resonate with ideas from
Supreme Master Ching Hai’s
book in terms of
how to achieve
optimal well-being.
I strongly recommend
this book.
I am an advocate of
the book “Diet
for a New America” and
environmental protection
at schools.
I think this book is an
A+ classic masterpiece
on health.
I think everyone
in the medical field
should read this book
and ask himself/herself
the question: “Is there
anything missing in what
we learned in school?”
The book “The
Realization of Health”
covers three medical
fields: nutrition medicine,
energy medicine,
and healing science; and
it contains some very
advanced knowledge.
This book will be
very helpful for those
who want to
make breakthrough
in their medical fields
if they study it carefully.
Of course,
the book is also very
general public friendly.
It provides secrets and
keys to good health and
people can get a lot of
inspiration from the book.
Bioethicist
Dr. Andrew Knight,
a spokesperson
for Animals Count,
a political party
in the United Kingdom
with the mission to help
create a better world
for people and animals,
read “The Realization
of Health” and had
the following comment:
“Our wealth, power
and opportunities in life
exceed those of
any previous generation.
Why then are heart disease,
obesity, cancer,
stress and relationship
breakdowns
at record levels?
“The Realization of
Health” reminds us that
healthy, happy and
harmonious lives are
possible, and that
the key to success
lies within ourselves.
Self-pity is neither
honorable nor a solution;
positive thoughts
and actions are.”
The power of
your thinking not just
because you want to
think positive,
it will be positive.
Depends on how much
‘money’ you spend
behind your desire.
You can't just desire
something and have it.
You must have
the money for it too.
Similarly,
you think positive, but
your mind is not strong
enough to invest the
power of mental control
over this thinking.
Then even you think,
it’s just a thought
for a fleeting moment.
It doesn't have any effect.
See what I mean?
So, come back to
the zero point,
we must meditate.
We must harness
the power of our will
again. You see?
In order to focus together,
and once we are focused
and we concentrate on
the power in whichever
direction you want to use,
or for whatever purpose,
it would be powerful.
How is disease created?
“The Realization of
Health” reveals that
sickness is closely related
with the nature
of our thinking.
It explains the root of
disease and informs us
how to face it
with the right attitude.
Our mindset is
truly important.
A medical study done
in the United States
found that having
a hostile outlook on life
and an impatient nature
can raise one’s
blood pressure to
unhealthy levels,
a condition that puts one
at high risk of having
cardiovascular diseases.
Some believe that
they are fated to have
a disease due to
a genetic predisposition
or that the condition
“runs in the family.”
This form of defeatist
thinking, however,
actually increases
the chances they will
have the illness.
Understanding the origin
of diseases, we know
how to protect ourselves.
They all understood
that it was their own
mismanagement of their
thoughts and reactions
that created their disease.
We live in two states
of mind: we live
in survival or creation.
When we live
in those states of anger
or aggression or hatred
or judgment or fear,
anxiety or insecurity
or pain or suffering
or depression,
it’s those chemicals
that are created
from the chemicals
of stress or survival
that activate
those states of mind.
It’s the redundancy
of those chemicals or
the chemicals that push
the genetic buttons that
begin to cause disease.
You see, every time
we have a thought
we make a chemical.
So if we have
a great fodder, if have
an unlimited thought,
we make chemicals
that make us feel great
or feel unlimited.
If we have
negative thoughts or self-
depreciating thoughts,
we make chemicals
that make us feel
negative or unworthy.
Most of the problems
are our own making,
because we think
negative, we act negative
and we let
the negative influence
from the people affect us.
You know what I mean?
Sometimes if you go to
see the doctor, they will
tell you that some of the
diseases are self-made.
Sickness are
some malfunction
in our spiritual, mental,
emotional,
or physical body.
Some sickness came from
spiritual "dis-ease,"
some came from
emotional unbalance,
some came from
physical discomfort.
So we have to check what
kind of sickness is that.
Most of the diseases
came from bad karmic
(retributive) background,
but other than that,
sometimes we also do not
take care of
our body very well.
The power of thoughts
and meditation is
beyond our imagination
and consequently
inner reflection and
sitting in silence are
highly beneficial
to our health.
The most constructive
thought is love.
If we love ourselves,
love others, and extend
our love to all beings
on Earth and
in the Universe,
we will feel wonderful
both inside and outside.
You still can always start
because your body will
obey your command
and the cells will start to
produce younger cells
because you want to live.
So the body says "Oh,
you want to live? Fine!
We do. Why not?"
the cells just listen to
the command of the mind.
So make sure your mind
is healthy, lively, active
and you want to live.
Then you will live longer.
That's the only secret
of longevity.
“The Realization of
Health” also addresses
our food choices
and why our decisions
in this area are so vital
to determining
our well-being.
The book,
“The Realization
of Health,” covers
three medical fields.
The first one is called
nutrition medicine,
which advises people
to improve their diet.
To know more about
nutrition medicine,
of course, you should
also read “Diet for
a New America” and
“The China Study,”
which I always
recommend.
The content of
“The China Study”
agrees exactly with
Supreme Master Ching Hai’s
message that
“we should be vegans.”
In this book, the author
says that a diet with
15-16% animal protein
causes cancer.
Think about it.
According to this
statement, aren’t there
a lot of people
lining up to get cancer?
Apart from protecting
our physical health,
an animal-free diet also
brings other benefits.
In so many ways,
it behooves us to extend
our love to all beings
on Earth.
I am aware that
the quality of the food
you eat determines
the quality of your blood;
that is the key actually.
Now, the quality of
your blood determines
the quality
of your thoughts.
So, eating a vegan diet
is the correct way
spiritually because
there is no violence
in the food
you are eating, and
that is obviously
going to manifest
through your body and
come out in your mind.
So, eating meat,
obviously there has been
a death there,
an unnecessary death,
so that energetically will
pass through your body,
and also, I believe
into your mind.
…and to switch
to a plant-based diet
because of compassion
for the countless
animals,
humans, and
future generations
to whom we are related.
All life is interconnected,
and as we bless others,
we are blessed.
As we allow others
to be free and healthy,
we become free and healthy.
Love is a beautiful
quality in the world.
If we can love a dog,
why can’t we love
a cow or a pig?
As Supreme Master
Ching Hai
has emphasized
for many years, choosing
the vegan lifestyle is
very easy.
It helps us spiritually,
improves our health,
and benefits the world.
If we become vegan,
such a simple, easy step,
we don’t just win
our beautiful planet back,
we stand to gain an even
more beautiful, wonderful,
elevated world.
We will live
in peace and harmony
as we never did before.
Your life will change,
your thinking will change,
your whole being
will change.
There will only be love,
peace, both with animals
and humans.
We will live
in beauty and health
and so much joy, the
whole atmosphere will be
brimming with happiness
like a real paradise.
Together let us live
virtuous lives and protect
all beings on Earth.
Let us rediscover
our original wisdom
by connecting with our
heavenly kingdom within
so that we all can
become truly healthy and
beautiful human beings.
To close, we
would like to convey
our deepest gratitude to
beloved spiritual teacher
and international
best-selling author
Supreme Master Ching Hai
for “The Realization
of Health: Returning
to the Natural
and Righteous Way
of Living,”

clearly delineates
a balanced and blessed
path in life.
