The Rising Tide of Cancer: Are We Addressing the Root Cause?

-
Cancer cases are rising at an alarming rate every single day. In response, governments, social organizations, and private entities are racing to open more and more cancer hospitals across the globe. On the surface, this appears to be a noble and necessary step — to treat and hopefully cure those suffering from this devastating disease.
 
But if we take a closer look, something doesn’t add up. Despite the increasing number of cancer hospitals, the number of patients keeps growing too. Instead of slowing the spread, we’re simply building more places to manage it. It’s almost as if we're trying to contain a fire without putting out the flame.
 
What’s truly surprising — and concerning — is how little focus there is on preventing cancer in the first place. It's as if we've accepted cancer as inevitable, rather than something that could, in many cases, be avoided.
 
Think about it: patients often resist changing their comfortable, unhealthy eating habits. On the other side, governments and social organizations tend to focus on visible efforts like inaugurating new hospitals or awareness campaigns. These actions look good on paper and in the media — but do they really address the root cause?
 
It’s ironic. Some spiritual leaders and traditional healers (Baba jee) do advocate for prevention through natural and holistic methods, but their approaches are often complex or difficult to follow for the average person, and thus not widely adopted.
 
So, the big question arises: What should we do to truly address the cancer crisis?
 
There are better alternatives than simply building more hospitals:
- Education: Teach people how to live healthier lives, starting with their food. Encourage high-fiber, nutritious, and chemical-free diets.
- Organic Agriculture: Promote herbal and organic (jaivik) farming to reduce the amount of harmful substances entering our food chain.
- Environmental Action: Actively work to reduce air, water, and soil pollution. Our environment plays a huge role in our health — and it's time we start treating it like a priority.
 
If we shift our focus from cure to prevention, from treatment to lifestyle transformation, we might not only reduce the number of cancer cases but also improve overall well-being in society.
 
It’s time to stop treating the symptoms and start curing the cause.

A Thoughtful Guide to Life Through Ancestral Wisdom Life is unpredictable. No matter how much we plan, life often moves in directions we never expected. But while uncertainty is unavoidable, confusion is not. There is a way to walk through life with more clarity, stability, and inner strength. That way begins with the people who came before you—your father, your grandfather, and the long chain of ancestors whose lives shaped yours. They carried fears, dreams, mistakes, successes, and wisdom. Their stories are not just memories… They are maps. This guide is a deeper, more reflective practice to help you understand life by learning from your family’s lived experiences. 🌿 Why Study Your Father and Grandfather’s Lives?

The Bitter Truth of Life

Life is a journey we often live on autopilot, constantly moving from one worry to the next. We rarely pause to reflect, to ask ourselves: "Is this really living?" This is a reflection on the cycle many of us unknowingly become trapped in. Childhood When we were young, we worried about studies. We were told: “Work hard now, so your future is secure.” For example, a 10-year-old struggles with school exams while his friends play outside. He hears adults say, "You must come first in class." Slowly, the joy of learning fades, replaced by the pressure to perform. Adulthood When we grew up, we worried about jobs and livelihood. After graduation, a young woman applies for hundreds of jobs. Rejections pile up. Even after landing a job, she feels constant stress with deadlines, appraisals, and bills. She wonders if this is what she studied so hard for. Marriage and Family When we secured a livelihood, we worried about marriage. A man in his late twenties earns wel...
