Drawing from Hindu and Christian spiritual wisdom, the world of science and psychiatry and 25 years of clinical experience, the author aims to demonstrate the link between psychological disease and an intrinsic hunger for spiritual union. Each symptom is seen as a crucial whisper from the soul, that if understood, can lead towards increasing levels of psychological balance. The book examines the relationship between the Hindu concepts of maya, karma and dharma and many types of psychiatric disorder. It also explains how Dr Bedi's system of Kundalini diagnosis has a positive effect for patients.
