The Turning Point: The Liberation of the Chooser
"Conservative” patients go to physicians for drugs and surgeries so they can feel better without having to change. "Open minded" people go to acupuncturists, homeopaths, and other "healers" to get "holistic" treatment so they can feel better without having to change. Evolution, real and meaningful transformation, never occurs in the presence of comfort. Ideally, yin and …Body/Wisdom
Newage healers like to entertain the notion that the body has an innate wisdom. Is this wisdom a property of the body or is it an attribute of consciousness? In my colleagues, students, and patients I often encounter the assumption that as we develop spiritually our health will improve and we will feel better. This is …Being a Vessel: Channeling
Here I examine the preciously held myth of being a "channel" - namely, that all a practitioner need do to facilitate healing is act as a "channel" for a cosmic "energy" or "divine force." But that couldn't be further from the truth. What sense does being a "channel" make in a non-dual context when one …The Awakening of Conscience
What is the purpose and responsibility of a holistic or integral medical practitioner? There is much talk of holistic and integral medicine these days. It seems to me that, at the very least, the focus of any medicine that is truly holistic or integral would have to be on assisting patients to evolve from a relatively …The Awakening of Choice
Awakening in the pre-modern traditions meant discovering, and resting in, the ground of being. In Rumi's words this is 'a field beyond the distinctions of right and wrong'. A significant part of evolutionary enlightenment lies in the liberation of the choosing faculty as we reawaken the capacity to perceive hierarchy. A PDF file from the California …The End of Healing: A Declaration
On 5.30.08 I declared the end of process oriented therapy. Any form of treatment that posits the need for more time for healing to take place at the level of consciousness, in the world centric human, is actually potentiating the disease. I am declaring today, 5.30.08, to mark the official death of humanistic, process oriented, psycho-emotional …Liberating the Elements: The Five Tenets
There is a big difference between helping people feel relatively better by moving qi around the sheng cycle and actually helping people evolve. In an evolutionary context we are primarily interested in development in patient's value systems as evidenced by behavior that suggests increased integrity and are only secondarily interested in changes in feeling states. …Chinese Medicine in the 21’st Century
Here I give a broad overview of the historic and cultural forces that impact the practice of CM in the West today. And, I look at a new value system for creating a new and higher culture for the practice of the medicine.Interviews
