Description: More and more doctors–and patients–recognize that mental states and physical well-being are intimately connected. An illness of the mind can trigger or worsen diseases in the body. Each year in the U.S., an estimated 30,000 people commit suicide, with the vast majority of cases attributable to depression. But depression’s physical toll goes far beyond the number of people who take their own life. Mental issues have changed our world when fun places like movie theatres and shopping malls arent safe anymore. What weapon can save us from uncontrolled minds that now tread our neighborhood – no security screen can detect this. How then can we experience real peace in our lives? Join us for an evening of discussion and dinner as we explore the ancient texts from the East to find solutions. Can the mind be our friend ?
