 JK> I cannot buy this explanation.
 
 I wasn't trying to "explain" anything. My statement is clearly a question.
 If you are arguing "for" (or "against") "unconditional love" being a part
 of "touch therapy" then you'll have to take the issue up with Lorraine.
 
 JK> Because we work on electricity.  The heart is a pump that has an

 JK> transmit electricity to all of our parts, we die.
 
 Cool. When your body functions (whether they are electric or hydraulic)
 stop, you're dead. And to me it's pretty obvious that NOBODY knows exactly
 how those functions operate otherwise or physical bodies could exist 
rever.
 JK> And yet ask doctors and nurses about this....ask them how the human
 JK> body makes electricity and see how many of them know.  Do you?
 
 I don't know and don't really care. Not one of the big philosophical
 questions I ask myself.
 JK> There are shamans who understand how to access that electromagnetic

 JK> Central America, our Indian tribes........and once did also in ancient
 JK> Egypt.
 
 Sure. But what exactly makes them all shamans? The fact that they can
 "access that electromagnetic field without surgery?" Does a faith healer
 "access" that "electromagnetic field" without surgery? Does a drug "access"
 the "electromagnetic field" without surgery? How about personal attitude?
 Stress? There may be lots of things that "access" (or alter) that
 "electromagnetic field" that nobody knows anything about.
 JK> Curtain" that is now out of print.  You may be lucky enough to find a
 JK> copy and learn why the Russians are so far ahead of us in these
 JK> matters. 
 
 I probably wouldn't even try to look for the book. And I'm not really
 concerned what the Russians do or don't do. It has little bearing on my
 life. There are lots of countries that are "ahead" of us, medically
 speaking. (There are also some that are "behind", too, according to some
 people. It's all relative.)
 JK> Or, if the University of Washington Medical School is still having the
 JK> Medicine Wheel conferences once a year, you too can sit and listen to
 JK> an old Indian man with long braids talk to the white eyes in the
 JK> audience, some of whom are prestigious medical folks.
 
 Does this old Indian man have a name? James Selam, perhaps?
 JK> Or you can find and read "Diary of a Witch" by Sybil Leek.
 
 Why would I want to? I am not seeking any clarification of what you are
 talking about.
 JK> There is a lot that most folks do not know, are scared silly of, and
 JK> which is really not all that hard to find if one is bound and
 JK> determined to look.  It is also best left alone unless there is a very

 I am not afraid of what I do not know and I am not looking. Nor am I looking
 for a "moral and dedicated instructor."
 JK> Spirituality raised to the highest point becomes the metaphysical
 JK> where men not only learn to walk on water, but to perform other
 JK> miracles as well.
 Sounds pretty bizarre to me. Reminds me of a joke about levitation.
 JK> And, there are those who believe that God is a great source of
 JK> knowledge that one can learn to draw upon in need.  Ah, but, the
 JK> learning of how to do this can be difficult indeed.
 
 And there are those of us that don't believe any god exists so the
 whole point is moot. And I have no interest in learning how to walk on
 water.
