Comfort

Is detrimental to our physical and psychological health

August 2nd 2015
The only way to remain young and lively is to always be learning something new and making efforts. Despite the immense advances in medicine in our time, previously unknown illnesses are appearing in industrial and prosperous countries. Why? And why do so many people suffer from depression, anxiety and nervous problems? Because, even if they are willing to make some effort, they always seek a life of comfort and pleasures and do not lack the means to satisfy them. But nowhere in nature do we find this programme for an easy life, because comfort and pleasures introduce the germs of sickness into humanity. The cells become lazy: they no longer eliminate toxins, they allow themselves to be poisoned, and the person loses his or her powers of resistance both physically and psychologically. So dismiss from your mind this ideal of an easy life, for in reality it brings death.
