Interesting Anecdote

Hi

Here is an interesting anecdote.

I had known of a prominent yogi who had real healing powers. He told of an
incident when he was questioned about healing the body vis a vis helping
fellow human to improve himself ethically.

A man came to him with some physical problem and he helped to heal it using
his "powers". Next time he inquired about how this man was doing, he was
told that the man was convicted of a serious criminal offence is in prison
because he is considered a danger to the society. This incident seem to
indicate that if only the yogi had helped the man to improve his moral and
ethical aspects instead of curing his physical ill, he might have better
helped both the man and in turn the society.

So there seems to be a balance on has to consider. The "curer" has to decide
on this balance.
