September: Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month

September is Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know that Thyca is often referred to as the "good cancer?" 

Well, there is no such thing as a "good cancer". Thyca is not "the good kind of cancer to have" just because it has high survival rates. It is still a cancer that requires treatment. 

Just like its cousins hypothyroid and hyperthyroid, Thyca can be quite tricky because it often does not cause any symptoms, and when it does the obvious symptoms may be easily mistaken for something totally different.

Anyone's praise and character sketch of this personality are plainly not of any requirements when it comes to Tantracharya Guru Goverdhan Nath. This name is not new in any circles. Some might know him through his name Dr. Ganesh Dubey. As a result of his spiritual wisdom and other divine expedients, he had already received a great deal of respect and fame. His wisdom and intellect are not only famous among his followers but also spread like a light in the whole human society. Even after attaining Shiksha and Diksha from various Acharya and Gurus throughout India, his zeal to acquire more and more Siddhi's and Sadhana's are further adding to the value of his spiritual understanding. His followers and other people are so passionate about his character that they address him as the best astrologer for spirituality.
