What if there was no such thing as age, disease or death?

It is called "Ageless Body, Timeless Mind" and it challenges the notion of body atrophy. After countless studies, Chopra discusses that thoughts manifest one's reality and, thus, we have the power to create health or disease (or literally = dis-ease) within the body.
For example, he illuminates the idea that if you tell a person that he or she will feel something (i.e. pain) this suggestion alone starts the process without the actual stimulus needing to be present. This is similar to the Pavlov saliva dog response that demonstrated the phenomena that after being "conditioned" just the sound of a bell that was previously paired with food a dog will begin to salivate in anticipation of its meal.

Similarly, we have all been conditioned to believe that there is a particular cycle of life. However, in Chopra's "Perfect Health" he speaks about the idea that DNA technically never dies and, thus, we technically need not either. While I'm a very practical, logical person, his extraordinary "out of the box" thinking has completely captivated my attention. After all, people have been found to have psychic powers: twins who have sensed the other's troubles from another country, the world was once deemed flat, and the idea of walking on the moon to our great, great, great grandparents was once an entirely obscure notion.
Chopra's postulation of living forever, being a choice and made possible by your thoughts, has been supported by other works I have studied. For example, in “Visualization: Directing the Movies of Your Mind” by Adelaide Bry, a psychotherapist, studies a little boy who was diagnosed with asthma. Through the power of the mind and visualizing that the asthma is getting smaller, the boy successfully and seemingly miraculously makes it disappear.
From natural curiosity, I happened upon another story that involved a person with a multiple personality disorder who was examined by a medical doctor. In one personality the person was diagnosed with diabetes. However, quite remarkably, in the second personality, same person, examined by the same doctor, lo and behold, no diabetes was found.
It is my belief that physical disease and aches and pains are actually tangible manifestations of emotions and thoughts a person feels he or she cannot express in words. It is the body, mind and spirit's cry for help and love, just as anything we do to ourselves that is not good for us: smoking, doing drugs, etc.; these are all signals to the world that a person is in need of attention and love.

Because our society is always on the go, it seems that the fundamental basics to life are often forgotten. Most people know that studies have shown when a baby is neglected its development can be stunted, gravely handicapped and even lead to premature death. And, the solution is simple: that baby needs love, kindness, and nurturing; and that same infant in need still lives inside of all us.
Just as a plant needs to be placed in its best light in order to live and thrive, so too, do we.
It is important that each and every one of us recognizes this, not just within ourselves, but within every single person we meet.
