I have faced multiple health challenges, and in the process of healing in these instances, I have employed meditation as an effort to have a dialogue with the affected part of my body. Proactive/encouragement for that part to respond positively to what was being introduced to correct the situation. It worked for me, though I have no clinical proof to offer. And if faced with another challenge, I'm certainly not going to withhold and die just to prove that it worked when applied.
Bottom line is I can't rule out anything, because I feel that collectively we haven't discovered all that exists for us. So, why not embrace the possibility?
Good take on it. I liked that in the IONS experiment they were able to "withhold" without anyone dying, and they claim their study and other studies showed a reaction to the intention of others. Many spiritual oriented people speak often about the power of intention to transform the world, but this seems to say it can be scientifically documented even if not scientifically explained and the root is not in the power of God but in the power of our own consciusness. You seem to have experienced that via meditation and enhanced healing.
As you note, we are not all knowing: science has limits. But it measured something in the absence of other stimuli when the only stimulus was the thoughts of another. I really tend to believe in this because I have lived with two dogs who could read my mind. Anybody wants to mock that belief that is fine, but I really believe it and I know other animal owners who believe it too. Maybe it is collective dillusion but I really think they have ways of knowing and sensing we do not, nor do our machines. They have dogs that hit on cancer that the most sophisticated tests can't find. That is pretty impressive, so I have no trouble believing my girls could (and the one still living can) read my thoughts. I see evidence of it daily.
Thanks for your reflections Wildcats!
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
