jeudi 13 mai 2010

Yesterday evening, the conference was really fascinating. Michel Montaud didn't just talk about teeth and dentosophy (which would have been fascinating in itself…), but also about general health, anthroposophy, and education.
His words resonated strongly with me, as his thoughts seemed rich with inner life.
This brought to mind my last reading: The Senses of Encounter, by Philippe Perennès, which, for example, explains that language is linked to movement and that for language to "speak" to us truly, nothing replaces a real encounter with another person. And that thought is not incarnated without the life that animates it, etc.

What I took away from the conference wasn't necessarily what was said: how life is rich and profound, and how the human being is worthy of trust… What else to say?

Michel Montaud explained that health is the ability to constantly heal oneself, and that illness is, in a way, there to say: "You are not able to heal yourself, look for the cause of this dysfunction within yourself…" He also made us understand that nothing is irreversible, that we can always compensate… That something that doesn't happen in the material (and this made me think of Walid and Mehdi's teeth) is a sign of compensation in the supersensible and thus of a "defect" of incarnation…
