On Doctors and Healing
To begin with, I would like to say that being healthy does not mean never being sick or feeling under the weather. The body needs to have opportunities to grow, learn and become stronger. I suppose this is where that saying about “what doesn’t kill You makes You stronger” comes in. Our bodies need a hurdle to jump over here and there, otherwise our bodies and our immune system would not have anything to learn from.
I personally have given-up on doctors many years ago. I find most of them useless. I know these are strong words and if there are any doctors reading this, please do not take this as a personal attack. I am only going after the ways in which medicine is practiced. Doctors are humans too and they can make mistakes. On top of which, I constantly hear about recalls on certain drugs every so often. That certainly worries me because it means people have been taking unnecessary medication, which can often distress the body.
There are two main problems I find with the way most doctors deal with their patients. The first is that most of them act as all-knowing beings when in fact all they can do for their patients is to give them an educated guess. There is nothing definite about the human body. It can change in many ways and it can do many things; it all depends on the individual. Some people can do things that would kill others and laugh while at it (as a quick example take a look at the Ice Man, to be able to unfreeze your consciousness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKT1Wvz3xm0
Thus, when a doctor gives anyone a diagnosis, I would check with four other doctors at least before taking it as truth. And even in case of an illness, doctors are not always needed. We, as humans have all we need in this body – it is a perfect thing. It can do whatever we want it to do, as long as we have the will-power. Here, I am not talking about the will-power to get-up to go to work or school in the morning. I am not talking about the will-power to cut-down on fatty foods or cigarettes. No, the will-power I am talking about is found deep within us and it is an extraordinary force. It is the power which the Ice Man knows how to access. This is the personal power which sorcerers and warriors have used since the beginning of time.
I heal myself. I do not need doctors for illnesses. If I ever broke an arm or severed a leg, yes I would go to a hospital but only in such emergency situations. A regular cold, the flu, addiction, cancer … all these can be cured by ourselves. We just need to learn that we can do it and then, build the personal power necessary in order to heal. Illnesses need to be understood and doctors do not always understand or even care to understand why. Doctors always tell us what is going on and what they can do. I think one must understand not only what is happening but why it is happening.
Why has a cell become cancerous and why is it turning other cells cancerous? Why is it that all of a sudden a part of us has turned against us? Those are questions that need to be answered and doctors do not seem to be answering those questions. They seem to be in a hurry to find ways to kill ourselves, like chemotherapy … I would not even use therapy as part of a word which has to do with killing. There is no therapy in killing, not that I know of anyway.
The second problem which probably annoys me most, is the point at the end of a doctor’s appointment, when another appointment is made:
“We’ll see You in a couple of weeks Jonny. Hope You feel better, take care!”
That is roughly how it goes, I do remember from years ago … And of course the doctor is going to make You another appointment – at least here in North America, they get paid per appointment. The more patients come through the office, the more money the doctor gets. So, what incentive is there for the doctor to heal You!? If everyone was healthy and knew how to heal themselves, doctors would be close to homeless and starving. It is in their interest for people to be sick. There is no incentive to keep people healthy. Your sickness is their pay-check. How wrong is that …?
Of course, what I am saying here is way beyond what most people regard as normal but I do not believe in normal. I believe in myself. I wish people could do the same and doctor’s visits would become something of the past.
