The Cause of Diabetes and How to Cure It

On a physical level, diabetes is caused by a disturbance in our metabolism from lack of insulin secreted by the pancreas or as a result of our cells not responding to the insulin that is produced. It is said that around 85% of adults diagnosed with diabetes are overweight. On the surface level, there is no apparent explanation as to what causes this lack of insulin or why the cells do not respond to the insulin in some cases. Traditional medicine has a hard time identifying what causes dis-eases, and why some people get them and others don’t.

The Traditional View of Dis-ease

Traditional medicine, or current mainstream medical practices, teaches us that all illness is the result of some physical cause. For diabetes, the cause is most commonly attributed to genetics or a bad diet and lifestyle. According to what is happening on the physical level, this is the most identifiable cause of it manifesting in a person’s body. But this doesn’t fit, because not everyone that gets diabetes has a parent, grandparent, or any family member for that matter who has previously had diabetes. Additionally, there are those who have never had diabetes in the family and who eat a healthy diet that still contract the dis-ease.

If there was a reliable physical cause of any illness, including diabetes, would it not be consistent from person to person? Is there not a specific cause to this dis-ease, and all other dis-eases? The answer is yes, but it is not a physical cause, it is a mental and emotional cause.

Nothing Physical Can Cause Anything Physical

As I have spoken about briefly in my previous articles, the reality of how illness really works is a complete 180 degree shift from our traditional thinking. We commonly think that all illness is caused by something going wrong physically in our bodies. For diabetes, the physical cause is attributed to the pancreas and insulin. But the physical level is just a superficial level; it is the level of effect. As will be surprising to some, nothing physical can be the cause of any other physical effects. An effect cannot create another effect, only cause can create an effect.

The physical body can do nothing in and of itself. It does not have power to create anything, including illness. Power comes from being at cause, and seems the physical level is the level of effect; it has no power to create. The physical body merely reflects the levels of cause, which are the mental and emotional levels within us. Our physical bodies are no more than a mirror of what is taking place on a deeper level within us. It is according to one of the most powerful laws in the universe, the law of correspondence, as within, so without.

The Specific Cause of Diabetes

As becomes apparent to those who start to understand these things, we see that traditional medicine is seeking the cause to illness and dis-ease in the wrong places. The truth is, there is a specific set of causes to all illness and dis-ease, but those causes are not physical. The causes we are all seeking for are within us, we hold the answers to all our questions. We do not need to seek outside ourselves for that which is already within us.

The pancreas deals with emotions, desires and all intellectual activities. Pancreas disorders indicate an imbalance on the emotional level. If someone is diabetic, it is because they are often very emotional and have too many desires for themselves and others. They want everyone to have a slice of the pie. They expect too much from themselves and from others, and tend to blame themselves for others dissatisfaction.

Essentially, diabetes is a signal from the body that we need to learn to let go and let things happen at their own pace. This person needs to stop trying to control the course of events in their life and realise that it is not their purpose to make everyone else happy.

How to Cure Diabetes

This new paradigm of thinking around health requires us to stop believing that illness and dis-ease is an enemy that needs to be destroyed and nullified. Illness and dis-ease is not a bad thing, neither is it an enemy. All illness and dis-ease is a signal from our bodies that we are not living our lives out of love; it is a servant to aid us in being who we really are, instead of pretending to be who we are not. It is nothing more than a blessing that is currently in disguise, until we understand its true purpose and meaning.

All illness is a message from our bodies, telling us to love ourselves. Diabetes is a specific message that we have unrealistic expectations about ourselves and others. It is a physical effect of us mentally trying to control our lives instead of allowing things to work out on their own. We are getting feedback that we are not meeting our true needs, that our perceptions are holding us back instead of moving us forward.

Only by balancing out these mental and emotional areas can a person truly be cured of diabetes, as this is the level of cause. Yes, diabetes can be treated and the symptoms (effects) relieved by physical means, but that is like putting a poster over a hole in the wall and expecting the hole to go away. Only until we break free from the old thinking that illness needs to be destroyed will we make any real progress in healing illness and dis-ease. The reality is, all healing is self-healing. All illness and dis-ease is designed to move us closer to love and perfect balance with all that is.

The Cure To Illness Is… You

As of the year 2012 we are considered to be at the most advanced point in human history. At no time in our existence are we said to have had the technology that we possess today. The sciences are developing new theories daily as new entities are discovered in the universe. Progress in technology amazes us daily as we are introduced to new gadgets, with each subsequent version being smaller and more powerful than the last. Yet, in spite of these amazing advances, one thing seems not to be advancing, our health. Have you ever wondered why? If we are making all these advances in other fields, would you not expect advances to be made in the health industry?

As of this very moment, cancer has never been so prevalent amongst humanity. More and more people are dying of it every year, and that is not just because the population is increasing. More people are dying of the flu, but we are meant to have the best and most advanced vaccinations ever created. We seem to be advancing in other areas but are going backwards in health and medicine, why is that? “The cure is out there” the experts tell us, “we just haven’t found it yet”. The truth is, they will never find it, because the cure to illness is not outside of us, it is within us.

This is the missing link and is the reason why current medicine is making no real progress. Most people are taught from a very young age that colds are caught from others, that viruses are transferred from one person to the next and that certain illnesses are genetic. It is commonly thought that cancer and other life threatening illnesses are just random and there is currently no explanation as to why some people live through it and why some don’t. In the eyes of most, illness is just random, and when one is afflicted with it they ask, “why me?” What a different world it would be if we all understood that we are not only the cause of our illnesses, but we are also the cure.

Admittedly, this can be a bit hard to swallow for most of us. The first impulse is to either reject it, or to jump on your own back and ask in despair, “So you mean it’s my fault?” Firstly, it is not about fault. We live in a universe of perfect order where nothing is random. Every effect has a cause, and there is not an effect without a cause. Illness is always an effect, it is never the cause. There is always an underlying cause to any illness, which is what is currently missing from current medicine. Illness is only a symptom; it is not the cause itself. Illness is like the oil light on your car dashboard, it lights up to let you know that something is wrong in the engine; it is not the cause itself.

Current medical treatment can be compared to pulling out the fuse on the oil light, so that it can’t be seen anymore. It does not deal with the real cause, which exists somewhere else. Current medicine alleviates the symptoms for a while, but it does not cure the cause. For some it may seem as healing has taken place, but it will always come back as the same thing or something else. We cannot cure something physical with something physical, as that is trying to cure effect with effect. We can only cure effect by being at cause.

You see, the mental and emotional levels are the level of CAUSE, whereas the physical level is only the level of EFFECT. Nothing physical is the cause of a physical effect. In other words, contrary to popular belief, nothing outside us (physical) can make us sick. Most people catch colds because of their belief in catching a cold. Do away with the belief (mental) and you do away with the illness (physical). This is how it works, always and in all ways.

The body acts as medium for the mental and emotional levels to express themselves. The physical level does not create anything; it merely reflects that which is created on the deeper levels. The problem is most of us are not aware of our thoughts and emotions. This is where illness comes in, as illness is our (physical) bodies attempt at helping us become aware of these underlying thoughts and emotions. Illness is a tap on the shoulder from the body, letting us know something is unbalanced within us.

When we are balanced and whole within, we are balanced and healthy without. In other words, when we perceive the world with a balanced perspective, we receive no feedback in our bodies. Conversely, when we have an unbalanced perspective, we receive feedback to let us know that we are no longer balanced and acting out of love. Again, this is because most of us are unconscious of what is going on within. In one way, illness is a tool to wake us up, to help us become conscious of our unconscious thoughts and emotions.

This is why being at the effect level does not get us anywhere. Until we realise and accept that we are both the cause and the cure, we will not make any real progress in medicine. All illness is actually a blessing, it is there to serve us and move us forward in life. In reality, illness is 100% positive in its intent and purpose. We can only see it as this once we move from the EFFECT level to the CAUSE level.

There is no cure outside us that we need; every cure to every illness exists within us already. The question is, are YOU ready to accept this? Is it time for you to move from effect to cause in your life? Living at effect gets us nowhere, being at cause gets us everywhere. Everything in life is either an expression of love, or a call to love. All illness is a call to love, are you ready to heed that call?
