Partial List of Traumatic Injuries in the Spiritual Life
victim of PPS Syndrome
I'm not holy enough to have experienced many of these symptoms but I'm sure many of you readers have:
1) Blood Sugar Fataltosis: This can occur as soon as two hours after beginning a fast, when the blood sugar falls so steeply as to induce paralysis and death.
2) Extraocular muscle tears: This can occur when the effort to gain custody of the eyes was too abrupt.
3) Lip & Tongue Lacerations: This happens when you bite your tongue or lips in an effort to avoid saying a mean-spirited remark.
4) Juvenile-induced insanity: This happens sometimes to parents of large families but contrary to the slogan "a mind is a terrible thing to waste" to lose one's mind in the service of having children is a badge of honor.
5) Knee Fallaoffitis: Knees have been known to fall off due to overuse in prayer.
6) Levitation Sprains: After levitating, some saints are said to have had rough landings although we have little documented evidence of this particular injury.
7) PPS (Premature Pruning of Skin) Syndrome: This can occur with too frequent application of Holy Water.
 | 8) Ave Carpal Tunnel: Those saying over fifteen decades of the rosary daily are at risk. |
