    Šamanismus
    • Šamanismus je součástí lidské kultury desítky tisíc let. Šamané se vyskytují v domorodých společnostech na všech kontinentech. Šamanismus je nedílnou součástí lidské podstaty. Je to systém léčení, založený na duchovních praktikách původně provozovaných u kmenových kultur. Šaman je léčitel, který získává znalosti, moudrost a duchovní sílu od osobních pomocných duchů, se kterými se setkává na cestách do jiných realit. Jinými slovy, šamané znají a používají určité techniky změn vědomí, aby získali přístup do duchovních světů běžně neviditelných a neodhalitelných osobami, jejichž vědomí se zaměřuje na obvyklou realitu denního života. Šaman „prochází mezi světy“, je schopen vidět říše, se kterými se většina lidí setkává pouze ve snech a mýtech, vstupovat do nich a přinášet nazpět životně důležité informace — jak léčit jednotlivé osoby, komunitu jako celek nebo samotnou Zemi.

      When President Nixon initiated the War on Cancer with the National Cancer Act of 1971, he promised a cure was imminent, fueled by the discovery of oncogenes believed to cause cancer. However, fifty years later, it is evident that this initiative has not succeeded. Cancer diagnoses continue to rise, with one in three Americans expected to face the disease in their lifetime. For most common cancers, the quest for oncogenes has not transformed treatment; patients still undergo the same traditional methods: surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. In this work, Thomas Cowan, MD, contends that the failure of the War on Cancer is rooted in the flawed oncogene theory, which inaccurately positions DNA as the primary controller of cellular function and health. Instead, he asserts that the mutations seen in cancer cells stem from cellular deterioration linked to metabolic dysfunction, affecting the structured water essential for cytoplasmic health. Despite the shortcomings of mainstream medicine in alleviating suffering, it remains illegal for doctors to prescribe alternatives to the "standard of care," even though gentler and more effective treatments are available.

      Cancer and the New Biology of Water
    • At 20, Thomas Cowan, a Duke graduate disillusioned with industrial capitalism, joined the Peace Corps in the mid-1970s, serving two years in Swaziland. There, he discovered the works of Rudolf Steiner and Weston A. Price, which would captivate him for years. Drawn to healing and critical of U.S. medical practices, Cowan returned, attended medical school, and established his practice in New Hampshire and later San Francisco. Throughout his journey—raising three children, facing divorce, and managing a heart condition—he remained fascinated by Steiner's assertion that the heart is not a pump. Committed to a healing-oriented approach to medicine, Cowan sought to validate Steiner's claim and explore the heart's true function. In this personal and compelling narrative, he argues that Steiner was right: the heart is not merely a pump, and our traditional understanding of heart disease, rooted in blood vessel issues, is flawed. This misconception, along with its reliance on medications and surgeries, contributes to heart disease being the leading cause of death globally. Cowan presents a transformative perspective on the heart, urging a reevaluation of what it means to be human and how we can nurture ourselves and others.
