GUEST,*daylia* BS: Science and New Age: Bridging the chasm (141* d) RE: BS: Science and New Age: Bridging the chasm 04 Sep 04


See what I mean? It's a sales pitch calculated to challenge a lot of people who are uncertain: "Try it, it'll change your life. Forget your common sense, what do these eggheads know?"

Sales pitch?!? I stated above, very clearly that I teach these techniques and do energetic healing work absolutely free of charge.

I practice Huna every day of my life because I love it. It has proven to be of great benefit to my health and happiness, my quality of life and that of everyone around me. And it works! - depending, as I've said before, on the emotional/mental state of the recipient. Or I certainly wouldn't be wasting my time on it!

There are very few scientific studies finished as yet, certainly not enough to assuage the doubts of those who could be convinced by such things, "eggheads" or no. Even the studies that ARE available are questionable - as are all other scientific studies - because the intents and biases of those funding and carrying out any study investigation are MOST important variables that are often hidden from public view.

For people like me, even a hundred such studies could never be as convincing as ONE first-hand experience with energy work.
And it's not at all that I "prefer" anecdotal evidence - the fact is that anecdotal evidence is the only kind readily available about energetic healing at the present time. But my own first-hand physical experiences? They are not at all "anecdotal" to me (of course) - they worth more to me than a century's worth of other people's stories and scientific reports. And that is EXACTLY as it should be, for my own health, safety and well-being.

Sorry folks, but you can't learn how to swim, experience what swimming is all about and in so doing, find out if swimming is the work-out that suits you best by reading scientific studies about swimming. Even if you found and read hundreds of such studies, AND someone you trust took the time to explain to you in minute detail what it feels like, how to move your body in the water etc - all that information would be next to meaningless unless you finally decided to jump into that pool and try it yourself. THis is only common sense, too.

It's the same with Huna. That first plunge into unknown territory may feel risky, but it's WELL worth a bit of courage and effort. You just might find something of great benefit that you can use and enjoy for the rest of your life. You've got nothing to lose except your pains and your skepticisms, and it won't cost you a dime.
