In summary
• The root cause of any problem can be in 3 dimensions.• Modern sciences only recognise the first two i.e. physical and psychological.• However unknown to modern sciences the spiritual dimension can affect up to 80% of our lives.• Unless we address a problem at the level of its root cause it can never be completely overcome.
