Borges attended an interview with the Oracle the following day.
Actually the Oracle experienced intense terrible dreams, he began hearing voices, suffered from anxiety, panic attacks, and felt electrical shocks though his body, as a boy.
During that interview the young monk described how he became a kuten. Sleep, exercise and eating right is also critical, Taking care of one’s physical body. For anyone experiencing, or knows anyone experiencing, a mental or emotional cr, Borges says, get support. Borges says the brain can’t function without those basics. Try to find a mentor who is through it, who understands. Look to other I’d say if support isn’t possible from family members.
Accordingly the term mental illness can conjure up images of disease, a broken brain and unstable and nonfunctional people. He began asking who their healers were, as Borges documented other indigenous cultures.
Indigenous cultures, Borges said, are not frightened by mental illness. They had all heard voices, had hallucinations, anxiety, and were taken under someone’s wing, The more shamans, healers and spiritual leaders he spoke to, the more their stories sounded identical. Concept for Crazywise was formed for Borges while documenting the Tibetan culture more than 20 years ago. His assistants began writing down almost any word the Oracle uttered. Ceremony began with chanting, prayers and drums. He watched a young Tibetan monk, known as a kuten or spiritual protector, on top of that known as the Dalai Llama’s Oracle, go into a ceremonial trance. Now pay attention please. Oracle’s eyes rolled back in his head, his face turned dark red and he began speaking in a high pitched voice. Once you’ve been diagnosed…, it was through Baltic Street, a peer to peer mental support center that she did actually find meaning and self worth, you kind of lose hope. You think that’s what I’m might be doing for quite a bit of my life.
Ekhaya explains in Crazywise, how she struggled to find any meaning through her cr.
