John Of God and the Power of Healing through Faith, Meditation, Love, Spirituality, Energy and Matters of the Heart
"People around the world have credited John of God, and the spirits that they believe work through him, with miraculous healings. Others have accused him of impropriety. Despite his detractors, those whose lives he has touched say he is a simple man with a gift. John of God charges no fees and takes no credit for what he does. He says it is the power of God working through him."
Dr. Jeffry Rediger, a skeptic psychiatrist, witnessed first hand the power of belief, "If you can say something to the effect that 'I believe this in my head, but I don't believe it with my heart, I don't get it, it's too much,' and then a little incision manifests on the skin over the area of your heart...that means none of this is what we think it is."
Whether John of God's work is a slight of hand or actually a miracle, Dr. Rediger says it's clear that the power of faith is something that needs to be explored more. "I believe the power of belief, the power of the mind, are far more powerful than we have begun to explore," he says. "I believe that's an unexplored wilderness in terms of research."This touches on what Michael Singer talks about in his book, The Untethered Soul. We are all energy and the heart is the largest energy center in our body. The good Dr. Rediger wraps up his experience with a beautiful statement regarding the heart, "Perhaps the real heart in us in not just a pump. Perhaps the real heart in us is about love and faith. Perhaps the physical body is not who we really are. Perhaps we are these invisible souls walking around, and the body is just an instrument or metaphor for something we are trying to learn."
