Common sense brings about healing because it is more than a way of thinking; it is a way of living, a way of acting, a way of doing what makes sense -- of doing it spontaneously, unselfconsciously, effortlessly....

We should let ourselves be guided by what is common to all. Lao Tsu used the word Tao for this guiding principle "that brings the people of the world into harmony of heart."

The African Bantu say it with more zest: "There are forty kinds of lunacy, but only one kind of common sense."

The inner guidance we have in common with all and that alone enables us to act in ways that make sense.
