This very complete 2-volume set teaches a systematic method for identifying the causes of illness and the states of disease manifestation. Etiology and pathogenesis is the key to understanding how disease can be prevented through awareness of the subtle energetic disturbances that precede structural or functional damage. Drawing from a rich storehouse of theory and clinical experience, Lad presents principles and methods of assessment which provide a foundation of practical knowledge that can combine with an ongoing awareness of relationship of the world and the divine. This perspective will reveal the seeds of mental, emotional, and physical suffering that can be addressed before they manifest as disease.
