Traditional Shamanic Uses Of Hallucinogens
No just skeptical. If it is possible then what??s wrong with asking questions about it to know how it works or if it's possible? I was serious about them knowing Maxwell??s equations, if they truly could manipulate EM fields with their minds, hands or some other device then why not figure out how they can? It might possibly open up an entirely new realm of physics.

Yep, but your not talking philosophy here, you??re talking about physical characteristics that you can detect with your senses. If these characteristics are a product of the mind then this healing would be a bridge between philosophy and the physical world. Aristotle was a metaphysicist, but he wasn??t interested in physically testing his ideas (it was a slave??s work after all.) While many of his ideas were great philosophically, he was wrong often on how the universe physically works. I??m skeptical because I don??t believe the mind can physically influence its surroundings. If there was a way of measuring or modeling your aura then it would be more believable.

Hence, a metaphysical statement usually implies a belief about the world or about the universe which may seem reasonable but is ultimately not empirically verifiable.?MoonStarer420 Reviewed by MoonStarer420 on .

Natives in Mexico (Oaxaca region) believe that the deity lives within the seeds. A Shamanistic Journey can be induced through the use of pschotropic drugs or hallucinogens.
