Unleashing Your Nuclear Energy
Wisdom from a Philosopher Physician
E = mc2.
How deeply do you know the Nuclear Power of your life? Would you like to learn
more ways to unleash your own healing energies? In this year of the centenary
celebration of the publication of Albert Einstein's now-famous equation (June
1905) the world has the opportunity to undergo what is basically a 12-month
meditation on the meaning of the "New Understanding of the Natural World" that
the famous equation put into scientific terms.
As a Naturopathic Physician and a spiritual healer I am nearly bursting with
energetic enthusiasm as I look at the ways we can expand the reach of this
equation to encompass health care and even the simple activities of daily
living. I started out my life with hikes in the forest and flying kites as a
child with my father and mother, then went on as I grew up to study how Nature
works and how humans can harness forces like the wind. My military service and
later training as a Naturopathic Physician forced me to look at many of the ways
energies can be misused. I even served for a while as a “Radiation Risk
Communicator” in Washington State -- a program designed to calm the public about
their concerns about the Hanford nuclear facility; but the stories I heard of
the “Downwinders” who developed puzzling illnesses and cancers, and the
inconsistencies in what I was being told to repeat to the public led me to
resign this position.
My search for Truth brought me to embrace what I described in an earlier article
in Pathways Magazine as Science and Shamanism. For me this meant to learn from
both what can be understood by measurements, Science, as well as from what can
be experienced, Shamanism. For me the word “Shamanism” did not mean empty
repetition of dogmatic rituals and often-dramatic performances, but came largely
from what I learned from people who lived close to the earth -- First Nation
“American Indian”, Huna, Mountain Taoist. These “medicine workers” exuded an
energy and vitality I had not seen in my western medical education. A powerful
example of this connection to the forces of the Earth was the
Spirit -- The Seventh
Fire performance I attended at the Washington DC Capitol Mall in 2004 as
part of the dedication of the “Museum of the Native American” (now available on
a DVD, suitable for use as a meditation).
E = mc2.
This equation blasts apart my meager attempt to live in two separate worlds,
Science and Shamanism. Have you yourself been able to think of your life as
simultaneously Energy and Substance? It is like imagining having a body that is
a “Hand Puppet” being moved by unseen internal energies that you can’t touch.
This journey of discovery of Self and How Life Works -- driven largely by my
oath to be a naturopathic physician/teacher/docent/doctor -- led me to create a
teaching website with graphics and what I think of as doorways to personal
discovery about life, health, illness, health care and the process of reclaiming
health.
Are there tools for working with this
E = mc2
reality? You know the answer of course is a rich Yes -- that is why Pathways
Magazine was founded (at least that is why I have participated in the Pathways
community since I arrived in Washington DC). I won’t list here the many
techniques and systems of understanding aspects of this dual nature of reality
that you will find chronicled in these pages. However I will now introduce to
those of you who can recognize it an earlier uncovering of this same
Energy/Substance duality of life that is now being mined for the riches it
offers humanity.
Energy Before Matter: Over 100 years before Einstein gave us the equation,
Samuel Hahnemann, M.D. discovered that he could separate the Energy from the
physical Substance of things used as medicines. The name “Homeopathy” was his
best description of the responses he observed in people when he would repeatedly
dilute and vibrate substances in water and then give drops of this liquid to the
patient (or sugar pills that had been used for storage for later use). Hahnemann
was working in a medical environment similar to what we have today (with strong
opinions about the status quo, etc.) and he did not have terms such as Einstein
created that could have described what he was witnessing. "It is only the
ignorant vulgar that still look upon matter as dead mass, for from its interior
can be elicited incredible and hitherto unsuspected powers..."—Hahnemann quoted
in A Homeopathic Love Story, by Rima Handley. By the time his always-active mind
stopped working (he died around 1827) he had written down case notes and a
treatise on True Medicine (Organon der Heilkunst) that elegantly reflect his
observations of the
E = mc2
nature of life in action. In recent years his original writings have been
accurately translated from German and his case notes made public. It is becoming
clear -- to increasing numbers of homeopaths and people interested in living a
healthy life that is in balance with the forces of Nature -- that both Hahnemann
and Einstein were working with the same fact of life and pointed us toward “A
New Understanding of the Natural World”.
Integrative Homeopathy: This is the name I created for the system I use to help
people with their health concerns (physical or mental health). Those who are
familiar with the terms “Medical Heilkunst’ or “Anthroposophic-Orgonomy” will
recognize what I am describing; the equation
E = mc2
drives our work with the same fact of Life, that it is simultaneously Substance
and Energy. My treatments can include homeopathic prescribing and such other
healing inputs as acumeridian stimulation (such as SCENAR and auriculotherapy),
craniosacral therapy, nutrition, exercise, and a variety of self-awareness
techniques. I make it a point to work with other practitioners in a “Team”
approach when this is what the client/patient needs. This may include referrals
to collaborate with biological dentists and other specialists in detoxification,
allergy treatment, brain health, structural manipulation, massage, yoga, etc.
The longer I have been a Naturopathic Physician the more I have become a
Philosopher Physician. Sometimes a patient makes the most progress when they
deal with things that can’t be treated with pills or surgery. Some of the
subjects that I have learned about and could describe in much greater detail
are:
“All Illness is Spiritual.” This phrase used to frustrate me, but my
Scientific mind calms down when I think of
E = mc2
and the fact that there are things that can’t be seen or touched such as radio
waves and magnetic fields. Also unmistakable are the wonderful changes I see in
people who are deep into the life of their church, synagogue, temple, lodge,
etc.
Life is Relationship: With others, with yourself, with the world outside
you including both the physical and that which is not seen. This includes
however you conceive of your relationship to God/Creator/Intricate-Evolution.
Lack of Communication: This is like the lack of oxygen. In the body an
anaerobic environment can cause some really bad things to happen, some believe
it to be part of the development of cancer. Some say that cancer is the
“ultimate lack of communication”, where cells divide without control.
Removing Disease: Distortive energies (truly deserving of the label
“Disease”) can slip into our body’s energy field and cause symptoms that are
mistakenly called “disease” (such as Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease or “GERD”
as one example now in the news). The energies of True Disease can be canceled
out by using the energy medicine of homeopathic preparations (and most likely
other methods that I have not mentioned). Much more could be said about the
different kinds of distortive Energy Diseases and how they can affect body and
mind.
Health is the Activation of Generative Energy: Integrative Homeopathy and
the “Medical Heilkunst” it draws from describe the Dynamis (or Living Power)
that moves our hand-puppet Life as having both a Sustentative aspect (managing
digestion, blood circulation, etc.), and a Generative aspect (empowering us for
healthy cell multiplication, making babies, having creative ideas). I have known
people whose bodies were gradually slowing down into physical death but who had
a deep level of true Health because they could still generate a smile or create
moments that affected others’ lives.
Ancient Rituals: Ceremonies and wisdom that center on Nature, the Earth
and the sun, moon and stars bring people into direct contact with the cycles and
flows of the dynamic Energy/Substance duality. We need that more today than ever
before to remind us of who we truly are.
For years I have seen life as a Pathway through this physical world. Now I am
seeing it as also an excursion within an unseen world of energies and spirit.
There are multiple ways you can apply the truth of
E = mc2
to your own life to
free your own healing energies and to also experience the healing that can only
come from energies outside yourself. I have mentioned a few. There is a wealth
of discovery ahead of you. I wish for you all good things on your own pathway.
Enjoy the Journey!
