Pretty cool story but I feel like I have a hundred things to point out Or should I just keep that to myself

go ahead and poke all the holes. I just retold this as well as i could remember it and i'm sure i left things out and am just completely wrong. but that's why i'm here in this channel and not bothering people that don't care about conspiracy theories like this out there.

1) Acupuncture being an actually rather good option for some things is confirmed by science
11:56 AM
2) People being ill only because of their mental state. This is also quite true and confirmed by science though many doctors don't recognize this

Alex/Casper (Aether System) 4/29/2020 11:57 AM
... yes and whose science do you think confirmed acupuncture to be useful

3) With regards to mental illness like depression its believed to mostly be physical and yet drugs aren't the first line of treatment. Therapy is. So is having a close group of caring family and friends. Just as effective as pills

Alex/Casper (Aether System) 4/29/2020 11:58 AM
that's true

Pills are often, or at least should be, saved for last. We know they suck. We don't like having to use them

sure, as a good option it exists, but western science doesn't have a way to say WHY it works. All they can do is say that yes, studies have shown that people that have acupuncture done experience good results. Whereas eastern medicine will tell you that it's because it's accessing meridians that are connected to various organs, energy centers, and or chakras within the body

My first guess wouldn't be to invoke chakras but eh I guess that's why this is meta
12:01 PM
My first guess would probably be a nervous system mental relationship
12:01 PM
Which you could possibly call chakras
12:02 PM
And I guess it depends what you mean by energy
12:02 PM
If you're talking chi, im a daoist I know what that is
12:02 PM
Its not exactly magic imo

Alex/Casper (Aether System) 4/29/2020 12:04 PM
Mm Trying to debate sciences is weird Because it's like If you've existed your whole life with your concept of "science" being rooted in physical rather than metaphysical then eastern medicine is hard to even talk aobut Hell we don't even know half of what we're saying right now, owing both to our exhaustion and the complexity of the issue
12:04 PM
I think we're trying to make a point
Avatar
I only become skeptical when things start hinging on some kind of magic really
12:05 PM
I might try to suggest that chakras maybe are physical they're just more abstract than the west is used to
Avatar
well meridians aren't necessarily in the science termonology either. I bring up pills only because BIG PHARMA is said to be the organization that primarily funds schooling for medicine here in the west. Not a medicine student myself, but from what i've heard the pharmacy corperations don't want people learning that they can be healed for things besides drugs. As soon as it's common knowledge that you can go have a meditation and hug session to fix what ails ya the corperations start losing money. i'm of course exaggerating with the meditation and hug session as a fix for all your problems go seek professional help and don't listen to strangers on the internet for medical advice (edited)

it's like.. spiritual science. It's weird. It goes against our entrie conecpt of sciense but somewhere else in the world it's valid normal science
12:06 PM
this is very meta in the sense that it's making us question our brainhole and maybe we should take a nap cause we've been up for 22 hours (edited)
Avatar
Well unfortunately a lot of people die from ineffective treatments
Avatar
@Alex/Casper (Aether System) I was going to discourage naps, but since it's been 22 hours GO TO BED

Western medicine is particularly good at bringing out the big guns when needed but yeah. The drugs are so powerful they fuck you elsewhere
12:07 PM
Its not at all good at preventative though

And all the damn side effects too. LAWDY

What you say seems more educated than I'm used to actually

wait no acutally yeah
12:09 PM
there's reasons for no nap

okay no it's not been 22 hours it's been 19

Still, belief is very powerful. If science has proven that placibos in the form of sugar pills as a control group in studies can actually be an effective treatment plan. Then who's to say that ritualistic high magic isn't an effective way to bring about change?

Like that's the type of stuff I fear meta being used like

Think that'd be an issue with or without

just religion in general encourages that shit

Meditation confirmed good by science so yeah gets my approval

holistic medicine is good when you're not using it to replace the shit you really fuckin need (edited)

certain stuff actually applies
12:14 PM
not a lot of it but some

holistic medicine is only practical as an addition to whatever your doctor tells you to do. Hell, it's a heck of a lot better than just sitting around waiting to be cured.

honestly I doubt that's a joke but it sounds hilarious

I don't think any one person or corperation is to blame for the problems of the world. to say that it's all Fast food's fault is dangerous and misleading.

Hope maybe someday soon A.I gets advanced enough to prevent missed or misdiagnosis almost altogether

doctors just need to get their damn heads out of their ass

And can actually predict what problems you're gonna get before you even get them lol

Obviously its not fast foods fault. We choose to be unhealthy. Ultimately. A lot of it is us
12:19 PM
I think the statistics show that most of our problems come from our decisions
12:19 PM
Heart disease and diabetes being the main ones

That's classically considered a bad idea

idk what a median is in respect to tulpas. i just know that in the occult a medium is a person that talks to the dead

But my host had plenty of bad ideas while making a tulpa so

one, not tulpas Different origins Two, it basically means we're separate-but-not-quite Somewhere between singlet and plural so we have distinctive identities but "I" am a mishmash of everyone
Avatar
i'm actually very curious about what's considered "old world tulpas" apparently there's a difference in the way they were created that changes how they are able to interact with you and your mind.

Ive literally never heard that term before
