THE SELF-MANAGEMENT OF DIFFERENT KINDS OF PAIN: CONCLUSION
Fringe benefits which come unasked as a result of these relaxing mental exercises. These were matters that were easy to discuss and record—better sleep; greater ease at work; less tension in the home; better sexual response; and improved responses, both mental and physical, in many other aspects of our life.
But there is something else, something much more elusive, something much more significant. I have experienced it. I also know that others have experienced it, although they have rarely told me so.
You may easily think to yourself, “Well, how does he know?” I know in the same way as you will know when it comes to you.
When I was asking him about the nature of meditation, the yogi saint of Katmandu told me, “You can show a child a banana, but you cannot tell him how it tastes.” Taste the flavour of your relaxing mental exercises. Taste it deeply. And you will know what I mean. This that is greater than all the rest.
I have tried to write as if I were talking with you in my consulting room. If you were here with me, I would ask you to drop me a note just to let me know how things have gone with you.
As a doctor I want to know the result of my treatment. If the treatment is not quite orthodox, it is all the more important that we know the result. Please, if you have had help from this let me know. What was your trouble? How long had you had it? Then these ideas can be put to others with the additional weight of your own experience.
