					<description>Interesting. I think the idea that we are fundamentally created from energy makes a lot of sense (consistent with Einstein's theories and the idea that God spake and it was so). As you say, we don't have the connect between practical science and the energy source. Everyone has to believe in something so you have to pick the most plausable. Some people choose evolutionary theory. I think that takes a temendous amount of faith. There are many theories on life, energy, and how we are here. They sprawl off in different directions.
I think the idea that emotions are connected to desease is an obvious one - it explains addiction (additiction to emotional states) which is causal to desease IMO. However, there are also environmental factors (like genetics). So like many things, it's complicated. More complicated than energy theory (not that we should abandon energy theory). Us humans have an instinct to discern, but often we crop our abilities to descern with simplifications. This is often related to our in-built nature to fear in addition to the absolute limits of our comprehension - although it is usually the forma IMHO.
People often pull away from the monotheistic "God" theory because we recoil at the idea that we could never be in ultimate control. Often this may be a result of "bad teachings" we've been exposed to but I think it is more along the lines of the instinct to "suppress" out of fear - which is one of the things you mentioned.
I think the pure energy theory makes a lot of sense but some of the conclusions extrapolated from it need to be explored more tentatively. Other older theories (like the God theory) need to be re-considered IMHO. They needn't be as incompatible as we've been conditioned to believe they are. Beware of those who would polarise issues (ie. bible bashers and the like, but more increasingly religeious atheists), because these people only limit our ability to discern (grow). It's amazing how much discernment can be obtained through faith, however. Since faith is a bridge across to ideas we wouldn't be able to otherwise reach on our own. In the past, people have made roadmaps of many discerned ideas as a kind of "database", if you will, to transcend time. So you have ancient "religeous" texts like the Tora, the Koran, and the Bible etc. I've been studying the Bible recently and I've found that a proper understanding of the map there-in has made a huge difference in healing  emotionally which has lead to measurable physical improvements. Because us humans cannot exist in isolation, our relationships are also part of us and healing relationships is the primary part of the emotional healing. However there is a profound thing to note here: one needs to have an "outward", not an "inward" paradigm for this to really work in the kind of long-lasting and perminent way that we need. That's the principle and the key behind "seek ye first" in the Bible and the 6th habbit (from 7 habits of Stephen Covey).

Anyway. Just thought I would share my thoughts/experience. Keep up the good work. I think you have an amazing gift.</description>

Thanks for your thoughts! In regards to the environmental factors you mentioned I believe fundamentally they too are energetically determined. By that I mean if you have a certain energetic entrapment held within your body it may physically attract certain environmental toxins towards you and make you susceptable to their negative physical effects thus creating a disease. If you do not have such a energetic entrapment then even if you were exposed to the same environmental toxin in question it would have no physical effect on your body. If you are open to the possibility of reincarnation then the whole genetics argument is also energetically determined as your soul choses its incarnation (genetics), along with your kama, in order for you to learn what ever lesson that incarnation has to offer you and in effect clear an energetic entrapment. The energetic influence always comes first which then causes a physical outcome.
I too do not feel that god theories need to be incompatible with the science of energy or modern day science as often argued. They must all complement each other perfectly when expressed in truth. The problem is in the past these teachings have been totally misunderstood and inaccurately taught to the masses in order to keep us from the real truth - that god exists inside everyone of us - therefore I would have to argue that we need to look within to realise this truth and not fall for the illusion that we need to seek outside of ourselves. We have been doing that for thousands of years and it has not worked at all!</description>
