Just reading a terrific book called "The Cosmic Serpent" by Jeremy Narby.
It attempts to unite the induced hallucinations of Amazonian shamen with the findings of Western science.
Central to the theme is the marrying of the vision of the "coiled serpent", a much repeated vision throughout various indigenous mythologies, with the scientific discovery of the double helix of DNA.
Interesting stuff - particularly in light of the revelation that DNA emits light. And not just any old light, but "coherent" light, as in laser light.
So, every living cell emits this light. And according to some sources "ill" or "dis-eased" cells emit light at different frequencies (and sometimes not at all).
In his book "In Search of The Wild Pendulum" Itzach Bentov provides a truly mind-expanding view of the universe, and included in this wonderful journey is the knowledge that systems tend towards balance. For example, if you were to hang a dozen or more pendulum clocks in a room and then start them at random, sooner rather than later they would be oscillating in unison. In other words, systems tend to favour balance.
Is this how Reiki works? Could it be that the light pulses from our cells attempt to "re-tune" the "disparate" light from "the ill patient"?
