In the current climate, most of us are undergoing an angst that
sometimes can only be cured through self-reflection. In seeking a
cure, we look to improve ourselves, especially during this anxious
and uncertain time as we live a 'new normal' during this pandemic.
Sometimes the journey begins in the hope to better ourselves as a
human being and relieve the inner turmoil. Sometimes the journey
develops a more spiritual path where we reach out to the Divine in
some capacity. In either case, a feeling of contentment can be
attained leading to an inner peace. Yet, we can only begin to do
this once we identify those feelings that cause anxiety or negative
emotions that lead to a sense of heaviness in our day-to- day
lives. The Coronavirus outbreak has led to many industries and
Government authorities promoting self-care and urging many to look
after their mental well-being more than ever before. The virus has
forced most of the world to slow down, which in turn has had an
impact on many people's daily routines. Many of us are staying at
home, spending time with family and now have some new-found time to
reflect on ourselves. As a result of this, many of us experience
moments of frustration on a daily basis, from being confined to
social distancing, or have a fear of losing one's job (or indeed
already have), or are unintentionally feeling ungrateful for what
we do have. Prior to the pandemic taking over, we would still face
similar thoughts and feelings towards something we had seen on
social media perhaps, or heard about from family, a friend or
colleague. This could include being envious of someone's belongings
or achievements, which they have shared on social media, or indeed
boasting about our own. Whilst these emotions make us human, it's
our intentions and actions that decide whether we are a 'good'
person, whether in the eyes of one's self, our friends and family,
our colleagues, or in the eyes of the Divine. Pre-Coronavirus, many
of us lost the capacity to sit still and reflect upon ourselves.
Now that we have the time to look back and contemplate, perhaps we
need to think about why we are feeling these negative emotions. Why
do we feel a sense of loss within our workday grind or within our
family relationships or friendships? A Handbook of Spiritual
Medicine is arranged in a unique way, by breaking down the core
maladies of the heart into bite size chunks that are much easier to
reference for the layperson. It provides a clear presentation using
modern management techniques: a tabulated and color-coded format
that enables easy access to definitions and signs and symptoms of
spiritual illnesses, their cures, and exceptions. The antidotes to
our ailments are drawn from Qur'anic verses and authentic ahadith
(Prophetic sayings),inspiring mindfulness of the Almighty Cherisher
and His Beloved Prophet. This guidebook, drawing on the 11th and
12th Century works of the 'Proof of Islam' and wondrous sage, Imam
Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali can be applied to our busy lives in the
modern, hi-tech era, and will prove accessible to people of all
ages, all denominations: believers and non-believers alike. This
book encourages us to continually self-analyse, in order to begin
to experience the positive impact of such changes. It encourages us
to look after ourselves during this time, acting as a guide on how
to do this now and beyond the pandemic. Making this science
accessible to a new generation is of utmost importance especially
in times of a spiritual vacuum and great uncertainty.
