Re: DID - Dissociative identity disorder
I think being non sprirtual is related to identity disorder
When you are spiritual, you discover your true nature, your talents and skills, your true potential, your self worth.
I guess it’s about perspective too. For instance, Prophet (saw) was a multi dimensional being. He was a judge, a teacher, a spritual physician, a physical physician, a philanthropist, a healer, a reformer, a strategist, a mediator, a businessman, an advisor, a community bulider, a friend, etc
But initially many people in Mecca thought that Mohammad was an eccentric person, some thought he was out of his mind, others thought he was a magician. Some nicer ones suggested that he was nothing but a delusional poet (naozubillah).
Make sense
In field of psychology there are serious questions about DID or even if it is a disorder at all (it is still listed on DSM). I remember one of my professor telling us that he has never met anyone with MPD in his entire life as a practicing psychologist. However, from what I have read, DID does exists & its shaped by cultural/religious influence from culture to culture (possession by demons/jins/ghosts, etc). In cultures where mental disorders are not well understood, spiritual explanation may very well make sense.
I meet my friend’s uncle who before saying something close his eyes maximum for one minute than talk or know what I am going to say. I don’t whether his condition is called being ‘spiritual’ not DID.
