About Unusual Healings

There are no sinners and there are no saints. There are only humans beset by fear, inwardly or outwardly.

            There is a phenomena explicitly created by the psychic surgeons in Brazil, Philippines (see photo of surgery below) and elsewhere, through which they can also enhance the patients’ placebo effect created by the persons’ mind, as the patients witness an almost numinous phenomenon. Besides the healing phenomena, in relation to the mindset of the patients involved, it is also possible that they might have fear in these unusual circumstances and instead of the placebo (healing) effect, there could also occur a "noxibo effect” (destructive effect)," which might in itself increase the patients' fear, thus depressing their immune system and making them feel worse. We witness such an effect in the Caribbeans by the practice of voodoo.

            It is my belief that the presumptive "healers" jumpstart the immune response through the sudden shock of belief overcoming the patient. For example, the more knives, more cuts, more instant closing of wounds, more blood flow the better!

          Whatever the healing effect sought by the healer consciously or unconsciously, or both, creating a “psychokinetic phenomena" shall not wane after a few months at most, unless the patient changes his or her life modality.

Changes in nutrition, spiritual beliefs, emotional burdens, and other habits that contributed to the illness in the first place are required to upgrade his or her own mind-set, or not only will the patients not heal but they may worsen.

             Also, let us not forget that the “feeling” of believing in an extraordinary event related by God Himself is very powerful. The agent of such healing also feels chosen to be God’s agent, as healers often claim. This emotional and spiritual attitude that is freely spoken of can in itself be the source, consciously or unconsciously, of spiritual pride, which was addressed in the Bible as "Luciferian".

              An old Trappist monk, Padre Amabile, whom I had known for a long time in Italy and France, once commented to my belief that the monastery was an oasis for the body and soul, which I ought to forget this vision. There was in the monastery a rampant source of pride through which the monks tried to "out good" one another in an effort to be more worthy in their own ways.

              The herb called “humility” was grown everywhere, but often denied watering.

               Amrit Gaswami, the Hindu Physicist, would know about this, because he has read the Sutras of Patangiali. In the Sutras, an ancient sage describes how the attachment to psychic phenomena may arouse in the practitioner a sense of great accomplishment and supernatural gifts of which he feels very proud.

              Those very feelings are none other than an ego trip that shall prevent us to further explore and feel our true spirituality, which is really about letting go of ego triumphs. It is my belief that we are personally responsible for their use and should not invoke the power of God, however you define this ultimate creative entity, as a being of love because the same creative agent is also responsible for creating tsunamis, maladies, earthquakes, and the death of living creatures.

               Let us not invoke a good God who heals when summoned to do so.  Also let us not invoke a Satanist god who kills (as in voodoo) when summoned to do so.

              At this moment I shall not go into what my personal view of “God" is, but manipulation of a supreme creator appears very Satanic!  Goethe writes about this at length in his Faust.

            Let us not go back into exorcisms; the Middle-Ages and the contemporary psych wards. All these forms of reality did and do indeed exist showing the great aspects and powers of the human mind.  Let us allow to use any possibility of scientific inquiry into this phenomena so that we can separate them from subliminal interventions by outside entities, god, devil and, why not, extraterrestrials.
