And to disregard something without proper investigation or thurough examination is just as disgusting as you claim the LoA to be.

So your facts are based on a story told on a DVD?
Do you have the medical records?
Do you have access to his health history?
...And moreover... Do you know this man?

Let's say that there exist inexplicable cases where people have recovered from deadly diseases.

Let's talk of statistics. How many of them?
Maybe 1 out of a billion. (But you can easily check for the real numbers)

So, is it more reasonable to tell people to cure themselves or to hope that they will be the next 1/1billion fortunate person that will heal without any help?

I would encourage people to have a checkup at a hospital instead of loosing their *precious* time waiting for something that has the 99.9% of probability to happen.

Try and understand that what you see in reality Is merely a reflection of your internal universe. Think about this:

As within, so Without.

If I jump from an airplane without a parachute I will die almost for sure.
No matter what my internal universe says. And to a person who wants to try to jump from an airplane I would suggest to bring a parachute, not to meditate that he is lighter than air and he can float gently to the ground.

If I have cancer, I will better run to an hospital as soon as possible.
And everyone who suggests me that this is not the most reasonable option is simply a criminal. Like an instructor that doesn't give me a parachute when I jump from an airplane.

That Adage has been around since time immerorial yet few so called "Mystics" or "Shamans" or whatever actually understand it through and through. You Lemontree, and a few others on this forum, don't quite understand it and in understandable ignorance you resist it. Which is fine. Now the real challenge is being able to analyise yourself and see where you are at fault. Can you nurture the darkness of soul and make it whole? Can you do that without fear? Can you admit your faults and truly strive to be better regardless of foolish pride?

Then, and only then, when you understand it thuroughly can you claim something to be right or wrong.

Here it is not a question of being right or wrong.
Here it is a question of abusing of people beliefs for commercial purposes.

I have nothing against the LoA and many of the things you are saying. I also agree with many aspects of them. Thinking positive helps a lot, even when you are in trouble.

But, here you must be *very* careful, when you speak of these things. Because you can pass a subtle message, that is: "Hey I have the solution! Just look at your "internal universe" and you will heal!" And people who are sick will *believe* you because they are desperate. And they will probably die by following this advice.

Of course a sick person, if she is in a positive mood, will have more chances to heal (there are a lot of therapies, above all meant for kids, that helps them to have fun while they are in hospitals in order to give them more chances to recover)

But omitting the other part, that is, that you *need* medical assistance is not fair.

To sum up, putting a cancer recover history or whatever similar on a DVD talking of the LoA is not the best choice, imho. They could have talked of other things leaving this "delicate" subject apart. Because they, as me, don't have the whole truth.

See you
