Recorded on: May 16, 1987
Running time: 118 minutes
Format: DVD

It's not just one thing that creates disease. And it's not one thing that can heal us. It takes a holistic approach. Nature has tremendous regenerative and restorative energy. Having a strong will to live and keeping hope alive are great remedies that you can't get from any doctor. Throughout this DVD, Sri Swami Satchidananda (Sri Gurudev) amplifies his message of hope with wisdom, humor and compassion.

Sri Gurudev emphasizes the important role that hope plays in the healing process. We need strength, tenacity and perseverance in the face of any challenge. By keeping up our hope and a regular spiritual practice, we can strengthen our body, mind and spirit to change negatives to positives.

In the second part of this program, Sri Gurudev answers questions from audience members facing challenges. Some questions address HIV/AIDS, sexuality, hope in the face of serious illness, how to help someone who has given up the struggle and views on western medicine in the light of spirituality.
