Biofield

[Harrowby Hall]

Ok, tell me why ancient artists should draw what is known as a 'halo' around saints or deity.

Because, like so many other things in early christianity, it was something they plagiarised from other sects and cultures.

A good example of how a dose of confirmation bias can get you to believe in any old mumbo jumbo.

Many people in the Bible must have had haloes, but it's never mentioned.

Did the disciples have haloes before they were called?  Or when did they acquire them?

Hi everyone,

Hippocrates is believed to have said..." Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease'.

This is truly profound and a well accepted reality in most ancient traditions. The biofield that I have referred to above and the flow of prana (energies) is the true healer of disease.....even when external medicines and drugs need to be taken.

Cheers.

Hippocrates is believed to have said...

" Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease'.

Do you realise the meaning of this quote is actually the opposite of what you are trying to push here?

Hippocrates is credited with being the first person to believe that diseases were caused naturally, not because of superstition and gods.

He was advocating evidence based medicine not your wishful thinking.

This is truly profound and a well accepted reality in most ancient traditions. The biofield that I have referred to above and the flow of prana (energies) is the true healer of disease.....even when external medicines and drugs need to be taken.

Both of those belong more to the superstition category than the natural category.

You still haven't understood that the biofield and its energies have nothing to do with superstition and 'gods' and that they are as natural as our body/mind?!!  Goodness.....you have a long way to go...jeremyp!

You haven't understood that just saying something is real doesn't make it so. You have a very long way to go.
