上帝的醫治~4.心理健康-為什麼會有心理疾病?

God's Healing - 4.Mental Healthy (Why Have Mental Illness?)

October 15, 2021

我們都知道人分為身心靈三個部份,大部份人認為心理疾病,來自心

理不健康,從來不會將心理健康和靈魂健康關聯在一起,大家想到靈

魂就想到~死!是不是我們活著,就不用在乎靈魂是否健康呢?

其實、「靈魂」的健康才是我們身心靈健康的重要關鍵!

心理學是一門相當新的科學,心理學應該可以算近代科學,而心理學

是從哲學發展而來的,大家有沒有想過,難道古時候人們都沒有心理

問題嗎?為什麼古時候沒有心理學?心理學開始蓬勃發展應該是在1

979年,而當大家開始重視心理學的時候,相對的、

自殺的人數就開始激增,正確的說、人們是發現自殺人數激增後,

而開始重視心理學!再告訴大家一個冷知識,

自殺的激增應該是始於工業革命後,而我相信有心理學這門科學應該

也是工業革命後!

工業革命後、人類的生活型態開始改變,但變好、或變壞?我們還無

法下定論!我們必須說工業革命後、人類的物質生活不斷提升,

但人類的精神生活品質不斷下降!以前人們重視的是內在生活,

現在人們重視的是外在生活。沒有工業革命、

大家就是必須要汗流滿面,才能餬口。現在當然還是有許多人無法餬

口,為什麼?不是世界糧食產能不足,而是世界資源分配不均!

(創世記 3:5) 因為 神知道,你們吃的日子眼睛就明亮了,你們便如 神能知道善惡。」(6) 於是女人見那棵樹的果子好作食物,也悅人的眼目,且是可喜愛的,

能使人有智慧,就摘下果子來吃了,又給她丈夫,她丈夫也吃了。(

7) 他們二人的眼睛就明亮了,才知道自己是赤身露體,便拿無花果樹的

葉子為自己編做裙子。~人類第一次的大轉變,本來人類住伊甸園,

後來被上帝趕出伊甸園!因為夏娃吃善惡樹上的善惡果,

夏娃想吃善惡果因為看起來~悅人眼目,還有可以知善惡,有智慧!

由創世紀我們明白心理疾病來自眼睛!眼睛喜歡悅人眼目的食物,我

們就吃進貪心,善惡和智慧!知「善惡」好嗎?有善惡就有該隱殺亞

伯!有智慧好嗎?有智慧就有各種紛爭!而貪心就是~善惡,智慧,

紛爭的起源!

工業革命帶給我們生活上更多的便利,但我們沒有花更多時間去與上

帝建立更好的關係,我們是花更多時間滿足身體需求,

但我們給自己身體越高級的享受,我們卻連生命最基本需求都無法滿

足,現代人對於睡眠的品質越來越低,我們有更多的時間,但我們的

身體根本無法得到很好的休息!什麼是真正的休息?好好睡覺!

而且可以讓自己完全放輕鬆,不想生活中的壓力和焦慮,讓自己好好

放一天假!

心理疾病發生的最大的原因~我們的善惡和我們的智慧!再想想:剛

出生的嬰兒會有心理疾病嗎?為什麼人們長越大,所積累的心理疾病

越多,而且心理不健康的種類也是五花八門呢?工業革命加速了我們

判斷善惡和獲得智慧的進程,這是夏娃吃善惡果的目的,

但這也是亞當和夏娃奔向死亡的路!(創世記 2:17) 只是分別善惡樹上的果子,你不可吃,因為你吃的日子必定死!」~

上帝沒有讓亞當和夏娃即刻死,但當他們吃善惡果後,他們已經走在

死亡的道路!工業革命也是我們死亡道上的加速師!我們需要更多的

判斷善惡和獲得更多的智慧,但我們的心理卻越來越不健康,

我們的生活更多的便利,但我們卻有更多的壓力,

我們根本無法好好休息!常常有人說:要醫治心理疾病,

就要和上帝有良好關係,我覺得這話太虛幻。我們可以嘗試恢復上帝

要給我們的生活,放下我們判斷善惡和獲得智慧的能力,

試著用上帝給我們的「善」來生活!所謂的善就是~~

不做上帝不喜悅的事!

We all know that people are divided into three parts: body and mind, spiritual. Most people think that mental illness comes from mental unhealthy, and they never associate mental health with spiritual health. Everyone thinks of souls and thinks of death! Is it because we are alive that we don't need to care about the health of our souls?  In fact, the health of the "spiritual " is the most important key to the health of our body, mind, and soul!

 Psychology is a fairly new science. Psychology should be regarded as a modern science. Psychology is developed from philosophy. Have you ever thought about it. Didn't people have psychological problems in ancient times?  Why was there no psychology in ancient times?  Psychology began to flourish in 1979, and when everyone began to pay attention to psychology, the relative number of suicides began to surge. To be correct, people began to pay attention to psychology after discovering the surge in suicides!  Let me tell you a cold knowledge. The sudden increase in suicide should have started after the Industrial Revolution, and I believe that the science of psychology should also be after the Industrial Revolution!

 After the industrial revolution, human life style began to change, but it became better or worse?  We can't make a conclusion yet!  We must say that after the Industrial Revolution, the material life of mankind has continued to improve, but the quality of human spiritual life has continued to decline!  People used to pay attention to the inner life, but now they pay attention to the outer life.  Without the industrial revolution, everyone would have to sweat a lot and get enough food. Of course there are still many people unable to make enough food, why?  It is not that the world's food production capacity is insufficient, but that the world's resources are unevenly distributed!

 (Genesis 3:5) For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.(6) So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and eat, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate.(7) Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked.And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloth. ~ The first great transformation of mankind. Mankind originally lived in the Garden of Eden, but was driven out of the Garden by God!  Because Eve ate the fruits of good and evil on the tree of good and evil, Eve wants to eat the fruits of good and evil because it looks ~ pleasing to the eyes, and can know good and evil, and be wise!  From Genesis, we understand that mental illness comes from the eyes! If the eyes like food that is pleasing to the eyes, we eat greed, good and evil and wisdom!  Do you know "good and evil"?  Because of the good and evil, Cain killed Abel!  Is there wisdom?  There are all kinds of disputes if there is wisdom!  And greed is ~ the origin of good and evil, wisdom, and strife!

 The industrial revolution has brought us more convenience in life, but we did not spend more time to build a better relationship with God. We spend more time to meet our physical needs, but the more advanced enjoyment we give to our bodies, we satisfied the most basic needs of life cannot be met. Modern people's sleep quality is getting lower and lower. We have more time, but our bodies simply cannot get a good rest!  What is real rest?  sleep tight!  And you can relax yourself completely, don't have the stress and anxiety in life, let ourselves take a good day complete off!

 The biggest cause of mental illness ~ our good and evil and our wisdom!  Think about : Does a newborn baby have mental illness?  Why do people grow older and accumulate more mental illnesses, and there are so many different types of mentally unhealthy?  The Industrial Revolution accelerated our process of judging good and evil and gaining wisdom. This is Eve's purpose of eating the fruits of good and evil, but this is also the way Adam and Eve rush to death! (Genesis 2:17) But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. ~ God did not let Adam and Eve die immediately, but after they ate the fruits of good and evil, they were already on the road to death!  The industrial revolution is also an accelerator on our path to death!  We need more judgments of good and evil and gain more wisdom, but our psychology is getting more and more unhealthy, our lives are more convenient, but we have more pressure, we simply can not rest!  It is often said that in order to cure mental illness, it is necessary to have a good relationship with God. I think this is too illusory.  We can try to restore the life God wants to give us, let go of our ability to judge good and evil and gain wisdom, and try to live with the "good" God has given us!  The so-called good is to not do things that are not pleasing to God!
