Default The World's Most Unusual Therapist!

I recently came across a story about a therapist who healed his patients in the most astounding way. He did not use reiki, drugs, acupuncture, EFT, hypnosis, brainwave entrainment. In fact he did not even see the patient at all! All he did was to work on himself, and the patient began to heal! Read the full story at:

The World’s Most Unusual Therapist » Secrets of Mind and Reality

This is psychic healing at the highest level.

Yeah, but how did he bill?

(and I wouldn't say that's healing on the highest level... because he has to work on himself to start the process. What if (and I've been with someone who has this) they just held such an attunement in their being that they just had to sit there, in their normal state, and people healed in their presence?

Default Rediscovering Fire

The day will come when after harnessing
the ether, the winds, the tides, gravitation,
we shall harness for God the energies of love.

And on that day for the second time
in the history of the world,
man will have discovered fire.
--Teilhard de Chardin

Thank you so much for this link, mindreality, it is so very encouraging! I definitely want to buy this book.

This seems to me to be the essence of esoteric--inner--Christianity (as opposed to exoteric--organized--Christianity), and, no doubt, every deep spiritual tradition, but Christianity is what I am most familiar with.

Quote:
This is where I had to ask the million dollar question: “What were you doing within yourself that caused those people to change?”

“I was simply healing the part of me that created them,” he said.

The World’s Most Unusual Therapist » Secrets of Mind and Reality
This reminds me of a fascinating verse in the Bible:

God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and has committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
--II Corinthians 5:19

The word "reconciling" is from the Greek, katallasso, which means "to change mutually."

Quite simply, I think dear Dr. Len has tapped into the Secret of the Ages.

Wow, Im really in awe. As much as I believe in loving myself to heal and release off most of the negative events, thereby reconciling with the other party, I never knew loving yourself can be so powerful to even impact the world.

Thanks mindreality for this sharing. God bless.

I think people seriously underestimate how deeply interconnected we are with other people, even if you've never met them. Even on levels of science, we're more concerned with isolating events in order to determine causality; it's easy to forget that we don't exist in a perfect vacuum and especially in the muddle of real life, there are no silos.

Default People Fragments

I don't think Dr. Len made anything work, Alvin. I think he tapped into how the Universe actually works, and went with the flow of it.

Quantum physics has shown us that the cosmos is entangled, i.e., there is no "out there" and "in here."

Einstein didn't like that--called it "spooky action at a distance."

As Dr. Len says, "It's all in here."

[The Bible says, "we are members one of another," and "we have the mind of Christ." (We have one mind? Amazing!) Other spiritual traditions say similar things.]

But, "With the aid of entanglement, otherwise impossible tasks may be achieved," says Wikipedia, such as quantum teleportation.

In the Astrological tradition, the asteroids represent fragmented parts of our psyches:

Quote:
The primary asteroids (Ceres, Juno, Vesta and Pallas) are associated primarily with the 2nd Splenic Chakra of "Interpersonal Relationship," although with tie-ins to other areas within self. The 2nd chakra (bio-energy, neurological centre) is generally the most fragmented and disintegrated bio-energy centre of the Human.

The energy pattern radiating from this chakra attracts and filters the type of relations drawn into our lives. Asteroids embody the fragmented pieces of self, and significantly fill in the missing pieces to the astrological chart, particularly when creating aspects to other planetary geometries.

Asteroids always reveal issues at some level that need to be integrated for us all.

Disintegrated asteroid issues fragment and scatter one's energy outward in dysfunctional ways in the world, and through the rest of the body.

Integration of the issues embodied by the asteroids leads to the ability to interrelate in the world from wholeness, integrity and wisdom.
--Nick Anthony Fiorenza

The Lunar Planner: The Asteroids including Pluto Orcus Varuna Quaoar Ixion Xena
In a nutshell: we're all entangled, and we are all fragmented. It follows that, in some unknown manner (call it the Law of Attraction, if you wish), we draw to ourselves mirrors of our own fragmentation, in the form of other people. And marriage, BTW, is the premier environment for this to take place--none better.

Our kneejerk reaction is to judge and project our own brokenness onto other people.

The more spiritually evolved reaction is to look inside and heal the thing that brought that particular person and their problem into our life.

This takes a whole bunch of humility, which Dr. Len, if the article is true, possesses an abundance of, going by the types of people he can identify with and heal.

The Law of Attraction, and the Intention-Manifestation issues are attenuated versions of what Dr. Len does, IMO.

Dr. Len is on to the real stuff, I think. We're talking about transforming the world from the inside out here. We're talking about The End of Time here.

Michael, Teilhard does rock, doesn't he! And, you're right, there really are no silos!

This shows that the Universe is Mental indeed. The outer world being a reflection of the inner world. All is consciousness, the physical being the mirror of the spiritual. We can alter external reality by transforming our internal mentality.

Psychological integration is the key to manifesting more wholeness and completeness in our lives.

Three cheers, mindreality! If everyone would integrate psychologically, or even a critical mass of people did so, the implications are mind-blowing!

I've said for a long time that physicists won't find a Theory of Everything until they factor in consciousness, which is fundamental (in the physics sense), I believe.

My reference above to The End of Time alluded to the book by that name by physicist Julian Barbour (which I don't pretend to understand, BTW).

Quote:
The End of Time

When people explain how our normal experiences give no inkling of relativity and quantum mechanics, the great speed of light and the tiny action quantum are often invoked.

Relativity was discovered so late because all normal speeds are so small compared with light's.

Similarly, quantum mechanics was not discovered earlier because all normal actions are huge compared with Planck's constant. [In the quantum world, action is always quantized in terms of Planck's constant.]

This is true, but in a sense it is also misleading.

For physicists at least, relativity is completely comprehensible.

The mismatch between the relativistic world and its non-relativistic appearance to us is entirely explained by the speed of light.

In contrast, the mere smallness of Planck's constant does not fully explain the classical appearance of the quantum world.

There is a mystery.

It is, I believe, intimately tied up with the nature of time.

--Julian Barbour, The End of Time, p. 186
Who knows, maybe thought is superluminal, or more likely feeling, which may be more fundamental than thought, is superluminal.

Quote:
Superluminal communication is the term used to describe the hypothetical process by which one might send information at faster-than-light (FTL) speeds. Scientific investigation has thus far produced no empirical evidence for superluminal communication.

Superluminal communication - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boy, I'm really in over my head here....

Editing here: I just decided to Google "Is Consciousness Fundamental?" and other people think this too! (I don't get out much....)

Quote:
Is Consciousness as Fundamental as Space, Time and Energy?

What is consciousness and how important is it to intelligence? Can a computer be truly intelligent without also being conscious? If not, then can consciousness be synthesized on a computer or is consciousness something fundamental to the basic structure of the universe, like space, time and energy?

Exclamation More on "Is Consciousness Fundamental?"

Even a Berkeley guy wonders!


Quote:
Is consciousness legitimate to study scientifically?

OVERVIEW

It may not only be legit, it may be one of the top three mysteries:

1) Fundamental particles (what are quarks made of)


2) Creation and nature of universe (how did it begin)


3) Is consciousness fundamental / elemental?
Do the basic laws of nature need to be modified to make room for mental phenomena?

Quote:
Bertrand Russel: The Science to Save Us from Science

But all who are not lunatics are agreed about certain things: That it is better to be alive than dead, better to be adequately fed than starved, better to be free than a slave.

Many people desire these things only for themselves and their friends; they are quite content that their enemies should suffer.

These people can be refuted by science: Mankind has become so much one family that we cannot insure our own prosperity except by insuring that of everyone else. If you wish to be happy yourself, you must resign to seeing others also happy.

"maybe thought is superluminal, is consciousness something fundamental to the basic structure of the universe, like space, time and energy?"

Hey Megan you really need to check out my article:

Seven States of Matter - Everything is Mind » Secrets of Mind and Reality

This is exactly what you are looking for! It contains the anwers to your superbly asked questions!

Thought indeed is superluminal. It transcends the speed limit of the physical universe (light) because it is of a higher plane than the physical dimension. Thought wave is the universal matter by which all other states of matter are condensed into physical form.

Default Enjoying your site, MindReality

I find myself smiling as I browse and read your stuff--thanks for linking me!

The name of Hannes Alfven, Swedish Nobel Prize winner came to mind as I read what you said about plasma:

Quote:
Plasma

The fourth state of matter above gas is plasma. Plasma is ionized gas. It is gas that is superheated to the point some of its electrons break away from their nuclei and join other nuclei. The gas molecules are in an unstable state and therefore behave in a haphazard and unpredictable manner. Stars are made of plasma Fire is plasma.

It is powerful, dangerous and attractive at the same time.

Seven States of Matter - Everything is Mind » Secrets of Mind and Reality
Alfven believed in an infinite, expanding "plasma universe," rather than a "Big Bang," i.e., something out of nothing.

I think of feeling as plasma, and beam as coherent thought. Thought is condensed from feeling. "There is greatest amount of chaos right before order," as you said.

Maybe the Bose-Einstein Condensate is the ether/Enchanted Loom/Seat of the Soul? My friend Nick says that Black Holes are deep wells of consciousness, which, of course, is what the Galactic Center is, I believe.

Quote:
Quantum Self Theory

The British psychiatrist Ian Marshall ("Consciousness and Bose-Einstein condensates", 1989) showed similarities between the holistic properties of condensates and those of consciousness, and suggested that consciousness may arise from the "excitation" of such a Bose-Einstein condensate.

In Marshall's hypothesis, the brain contains a Froehlich-style condensate, and, whenever the condensate is excited by an electrical field, conscious experience occurs.

The brain maintains dynamical coherence (i.e., the ability to organize millions of neural processes into the coherent whole of thought) thanks to an underlying quantum coherent state (the Bose-Einstein condensate).

The Nature of Consciousness: Consciousness, Life and Meaning
I used to live next door to Eric Cornell, one of the 2001 Nobel Prize winners for the Bose-Einstein Condensate.

Default Top-down Creation?

Quote:
The universe was created as an idea in the Mind of God.
  • First there was thought wave.
  • The thought wave became beam,
  • the beam became plasma,
  • the plasma became gas,
  • the gas became liquid,
  • the liquid became solid and
  • the solid became black holes.

There is balance of forces in the universe. The universal thought wave is even finer than our individual thought waves. The universal mind is the Ether that permeates all things and is All Things.

Seven States of Matter - Everything is Mind » Secrets of Mind and Reality
Ah, this is a very masculinized version of Creation, it seems to me!

"There is a balance of forces in the universe," but where is the balance in your above scenario? It's all top-down from an originating "thought."

Shouldn't feeling and thought reverberate within the Deity as they do within our own beings? Is God so aseptic as all that?

Think a minute about what you said about plasma:

Quote:
It is powerful, dangerous and attractive at the same time.
Very interesting...remind you of anything?

The beauty of Dr. Len's position, to me, is this reverberation of feeling and thought within him that allows him to identify with the whole human race.

The mind and thought alone lead to judgment and moralism and their attendant evils.

As the maxim goes,

Quote:
A madman is not one who has thrown out reason; it is a person who has thrown out everything except reason.
I think that God is not a madman. I also think the Big Bang is pretty much a guy-thing.

Actually feeling exist as thought wave.

Yes there is balance of forces in the universe. All states of matter exist in the physical universe exist in appropriate amounts so that no single state pulls the rest into itself.

Blackholes do not suck everything in, neither does plasma turn everything ablaze.

But the physical universe was formed from the spiritual and the spiritual will always exist with or without the physical.

Btw Megan since you are so interested in feeling, you'd love reading this:

Default Thanks for the link...

...interesting article! Feelings are everything. Good. I'm glad that thought isn't something cut off from feeling in your mind. I'm liking your stuff.

Have you ever read Descartes' Error: Emotion, Reason and the Human Brain by Antonio Damasio?

Quote:
Synopsis

In the centuries since Descartes famously proclaimed, 'I think, therefore I am,' science has often overlooked emotions as the source of a person's true being.

Even modern neuroscience has tended until recently to concentrate on the cognitive aspects of brain function, disregarding emotions.

This attitude began to change with the publication of "Descartes' Error". Antonio Damasio challenged traditional ideas about the connection between emotions and rationality.

In this wonderfully engaging book, Damasio takes the reader on a journey of scientific discovery through a series of case studies, demonstrating what many of us have long suspected: emotions are not a luxury, they are essential to rational thinking and to normal social behaviour.

From the Publisher
Crucial reading - New York Times Book Review

Amazon.co.uk: Descartes' Error: Emotion, Reason and the Human Brain: Books: Antonio Damasio
Another Damasio book:

Quote:
Synopsis:

A leading expert of the neurophysiology of emotions, Damasio shows how our consciousness arose out of the development of emotion.

At its core human consciousness is consciousness of the feeling and experiencing self.

The more I understand logic and rational thinking, I've started wondering why people consider emotions to be illogical or irrational. I think that deserves address, but I don't have the training in cognitive science to properly guess at the exact nature of emotions, so I can't really seal any argument on the subject.

I just know that, nowadays, I no longer see illogic in emotions, nor do I see irrationality; just misunderstandings and unsuccessful communication. *shrugs* Food for thought.

Default Feelings are percepts

Michael, Damasio demonstrates quite convincingly that there is no rationality without emotions/feelings.

He is a neuroscientist and cites brain injury cases in which people who are damaged in emotion-processing areas are no longer able to make rational decisions. He coins the term "somatic markers" to describe the means by which the brain makes use of body feedback in making judgments.

Simply put, we cannot reason adequately without access to feelings.

Quote:
Damasio is trying to build a neurobiology of rationality. In this book he provides a neurophysiological analysis of memory, emotions and consciousness.

The book has three themes.
1. Human reason depends on the interaction among several brain systems rather than on a single brain centre.

2. Feelings are views of the body's internal organs. Feelings are percepts and they are as cognitive as any other percept.

3. The mind is about the body: the neural processes that are experienced as the mind are about the representation of the body in the brain. The mental requires the existence of a body for more than mere support: the mind is not a phenomenon of the brain alone. The mind derives from the entire organism as a whole. The mind reflects two types of interaction: between the body and the brain, and between them and the environment.
Damasio believes that the brain structures responsible for emotion and the ones responsible for reason partially overlap, and this fact lends physical, neural evidence to his hypothesis that emotion and reason cooperate. Those brain structures also communicate directly with the rest of the body, and this suggests the importance of their operations for the organism's survival.

Book review of Antonio Damasio
In this context, Dr. Len's dealing with feelings, even his own feelings, to heal others does not seem so far out, I think.

Wow, thanks for that link! I just bookmarked it.


It makes sense. Love is the highest vibration out there. Anything that High heals . Everything has a ripple effect. Every thought we project has a cause and effect.


Alot of times we confuse loving ourself as being conceited. Actually being conceited means we don't love ourselves. When you really love, it is unselfish , so it would make sense that if you start projecting loving thoughts to your self, you're going to create something positive out of something negative.


And the doctor makes sense too that instead of placing blame, we have to take responsiblity. I think we all have it in us to change things in the World just by sending out this energy-- what is really cool is even someone who is paralyzed or parapalegic can utilize this to heal others and any negativity in the World.

How very inspiring :-)

Maybe it works differently across species; you might want to ask dorothy hanna.

Default If at first....

moviestar, point taken--I probably do talk too much.

However, three minutes doth not a scientific experiment make. This is not a magic incantation we're talking about here. This is about committing oneself to inner growth in behalf of others, a long and rugged path, at best.

As to the interspecies part--well, who knows? As I said, "Maybe...?"

The EFT Provides Impressive Health and Emotional Freedom--New Discovery Often Works Where Nothing Else site has a number of interesting testimonials about healing animals through EFT, and maybe Dorothy Hanna could help too.

Fireworks and my Chocolate Lab Figo

I love trying EFT on every topic imaginable and on those around me. Well, dogs have always been a part of my life and currently I have a chocolate lab named Figo. I’ve been using EFT on Figo on many topics but mainly about his biggest issue, fireworks. We live in Mexico and since there are fireworks almost daily we get a lot of practice with EFT.

I do a simplified version of the EFT procedure. Basically, I use only the eye points, i.e. what corresponds to the eyebrow, side of the eye and under the eye. And most of the time I use only the side of the eye point. It is convenience and Figo likes it. He often leans into my hand and closes his eyes.

For fireworks I tap on these points and talk to him while I tap. I’ll give you an example of what I would say...

You are safe. It is ok they only make noise. They don’t hurt you. I know you hear more sound than I but you are still ok. You can release the fear. You are safe. Whatever it reminds you of that causes fear you can let it go. Let it go. You are calm and relaxed. Even when there are fireworks you are calm. You sit near me. You sleep. You eat and play normally. You act as if they didn’t even exist.

And so on. I’ve also done tapping with visualizing since animal communicators say that animals understand symbols better than words. I tap the points while imaging scenes of Figo being calm and relaxed even when the fireworks are close and very loud, that he is playing and ignores completely the sounds or that he sleeps at my side completely calm while the fireworks go off in the background.

It has taken time, probably about a year’s worth of tapping, but Figo is now so much calmer in the presence of fireworks. At first he would climb up the back of the sofa, or want to sit on me (not a pleasant experience with a large dog), or hide. He still does not like the sound of fireworks, but instead of going crazy with fear, he comes to lie near me. It is such a relief.

Three cases using EFT for dogs: Two for fear and one for a swollen paw
And I actually did try this (instinctively) a number of years before I heard of Dr. Len.

I was estranged from a loved one, and I put her picture on my mirror and told her I loved her many, many times when I looked at her. I don't remember how long it took, but she resumed communicating with me and we were close when she died, which I considered a major miracle.

Good luck, and let us know how it goes! The emofree . com site has a free manual you can download, and a free newsletter you can subscribe to.

Interesting, but "a year’s worth of tapping"?? I think Figo just got used to fireworks. My dog also went crazy a long time ago but now he just sits and is scared. So he improved, but I didn't do any tapping!
