Spiritual and karmic etiology

Spiritual and karmic etiology enters the Adult Cognitive Disease corpus through the work of T Cheluvaraju (submission 33), and is indexed here as one of the concepts that submission puts to work.

The argument it belongs to

T Cheluvaraju's submission is summarised in this corpus as:

Alzheimer's disease is primarily a mental deterioration caused by negative thinking, depression, stress, and loneliness, which are the result of one's own karmic actions. The mind (soul/energy) controls the brain through the hypothalamus, and deterioration occurs when negative thoughts override positive ones. Treatment should combine yoga-meditation (Raja Yoga), medication for brain chemical deficiencies, and spiritual practices.

Its declared subject matter: spirituality, meditation, Raja Yoga, mind-body, psychosomatic, karma, holistic therapy.

Named by the same submission

3 other concepts enter the corpus through the same paper, so they cover adjacent ground: Meditation as neuroprotective intervention · Mind-body-soul integration for treatment · Psychosomatic model of Alzheimer's disease.
