Got my information from a practitioner...the Gyalwa Karmapa's physician. Where'd you get yours?
Well, you got your information from someone who didn't require a true knowledge of the field in order to legally be able to practice.
This is the prime reason I don't like nor trust a doctor by their qualifications posted on the wall. A cert means nothing.
I got MY information about Chinese medicine through intense study from the 2 leading authorities as dictated by the eldest and most respected of Chinese martial arts and ancient healing arts authorities in China.
Of the two people my information comes from, 1 has dedicated his life to healing, and the other to using the same information as a healing/defense system.
Again, both are world renown and tops in their field. I have medical books on anatomy and medical sciences which is used to grant medical students their educations and backs up the information as to how the body works which verify the science.
For herbs, I get my information from numerous sources which include Americas leading authority on chemical composition of herbs and plants. His job for many years was to go into 3rd world nations and declare which herbs could be used for which medicines in case medical supplies for the military ran out. His botanical database is still online with the government and available for public access.
As far as the "energy" component of all of this, I have numerous books on energy, and have an education in electronics, computers, and residential elecrical. I have studied heavily in realms of elecromagnetics, physics, and biology and have texts on electromagnetic fields within the body and how the various frequencies and healing properties work to also stimulate regeneration of tissue.
On top of all of that, I have numerous study texts to refer to select areas of the Bible to look up topics according to what the Bible says and I can pick it up from there.
On top of all of that, I have the Bible.
I can read it cover to cover, and I have in the past, and understand it quite clearly in context.
So now the question remains.
Who is to be dismissed?
