What is the essence of healing?
In this profound episode of OMM Dr. Gladys McGarey, a pioneer in holistic medicine, shares her insightful perspectives on the foundational role of love in the healing process and her encounters with Mahatma Gandhi.
Dr. McGarey emphasizes that true healing emanates from within, a synergy of our internal and external selves, driven by the transformative power of love. She challenges the conventional notion of dominion over Earth, urging a reevaluation of our role and the choices we make, highlighting the misinterpretation of dominion as dominance rather than stewardship and harmony with nature.
Through her personal philosophy of the "Five L's" - Life, Love, Laughter, Labor, and Listening - Dr. McGarey illustrates how each aspect intertwines with love to foster healing, joy, purpose, and deep understanding. She describes how life and love act as a single unit, mirroring the interconnection between a mother and her unborn child, where both physical and emotional sustenance are shared. Laughter, when infused with love, becomes a source of joy rather than harm; labor with love transforms work into bliss; and listening with love allows for true comprehension and connection.
Mahatma Gandhi crossed paths with Gladys McGarey when she was ten years old and shares a poignant memory of a brief encounter with Mahatma Gandhi, which left a lasting impact on her understanding of love's power. This moment of recognition and connection underscored the importance of acknowledging each other's humanity, a lesson that has stayed with her throughout her life and career.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the intrinsic connection between our well-being and the way we engage with love in our lives and in the world around us.
This episode makes me imagine what crossing paths with Mahatma Gandhi would have been like.
