Inspired by the Journey to the West, Gandhara is devoted to both Western and Eastern Truth.
ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ - Hail the Lord whose name eliminates spiritual darkness.
Om Ganeshaya Namaha (ॐ गणेशाय नमः) - Homage to Ganesha.
Unconditional love tranquilizes the mind, and thus conquers all.
This psychological model of behavior is based on the premise that human coping skills are learned as a child from observing the parent's behavior in coping with the reality of life and its limitations on the individual.
Specifically, the behavior associated with depression and other behavior associated with so-called mental illnesses are actually psychological tools used inappropriately in what is considered by mental health providers as maladaptive behavior.
That depression is learned is based on the observation that the average child will imitate (mimic) its parents.
If the mother becomes depressed and retreats to the safety of bed in response to the stress of coping with the dominance of her husband, then the child will choose the same behavior under stress.
Since sleep is related to depression i.e. the behavior of a sleep-deprived person is similar to a person with a mood disorder, the quality of sleep is a critical factor in the genesis of depression.
Self-esteem itself is a conceptual artifact tied to ego and how a person values her contribution to family and society.
Depression is thus a coping mechanism that originally is a temporary reaction to stress, be it dominance from authority, loss of a loved one, pain both physical and psychic, etc.
It only becomes inappropriate when a person chooses to sleep a lot, develops morbid ideation about death, and eats inappropriately (extremes in diet).
Diet itself may significently affect the depressed person.
Sugar, alcohol and recreational drugs are known to affect mood through action on human metabolism i.e. blood sugar, neurohormones, etc.
The nutritional standard of a family requires improvement over the average diet which consists of too much sugar.
Magnesium and calcium are two essential minerals tied to mood, through body metabolism and regulation of hormones.
Complex carbohydrates are useful in regulating the blood sugar level, so that mood swings are lessened.
Multivitamins may help in optimizing intake of essential nutrition.
In addition, the herbs which aid in regulation of moods are skullcap, passion flower, chamomile, St. Johns wort, and hops. In addition, 5-HTP or chamomile tea may be taken before bedtime.
However, the use of herbs may require consistant routine, and is recommended for acute depression. Chronic depression involving abuse and violence, both to and by the depressed person, requires medical intervention.
When the person's mental state has stabilized, usually with an anti-anxiety drug, it is appropriate to improve the person's diet through substitution with low-sugar, moderate protein and complex carbohydrates.
