MENTAL WELL-BEING

When people view the world with the vision of love, they will have peace. All diseases will be cured. Most diseases have their origin in the mind. Everything has a psychological basis. When a person feels that something is wrong with him, he develops an illness. A healthy mind is needed for a healthy body. But it is not enough to be physically healthy. Man needs God's grace also. To acquire God's grace, you have to cultivate the love of God.
- Sri Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol 28, 3rd June 1995

Sri Sathya Sai Baba maintained that just as physical health, mental health is very critical for spiritual growth.  As part of the service activities, volunteers of the Sri Sathya Sai Organization conduct mental health camps to help all those in need.

Today man has to understand the true relationship between matter and mind. When one is asked about the mind, he says, "Don't mind." When he is asked about matter, he answers' "It doesn't matter." By this sort of casualness, man is failing to understand mind and matter. Only when man understands the nature of the mind can he recognize the true nature of humanness.
