Applications in Cancer Treatment
A cure for cancer exists through
the use of yoga, a San Antonio, Texas, cancer specialist said during a seminar
in Oklahoma City in the 1980s.
But physicians refused to
acknowledge the cure, said Col. Hansa Raval, M.D., a pathologist with the
United States Army. Dr. Raval said her work in cytotechnology _ a diagnostic
branch of medicine designed to pinpoint early stages of cancer _ was fruitless
until she began researching the use of non-conventional methods of treatment.
The specialist said she witnessed
the use of Raja yoga and meditation cure crippling arthritis, headaches and
even cancer.
And even though Raval offers
proof, which she said was collected during two years of study at the Brahma
Kumaris World Spiritual University in India, she has been dismissed by other
members of the medical profession as a kook.
Yoga's success as a treatment
method is due to another hypothesis Raval proposes that 98 percent of all
cancer is psychosomatic.
This is not chanting or mantra
reciting, the physician said. It's not based on scriptures. It's not a cult.
It's not biofeedback. It's deeper than that. This is a full-proof method of
meditation, a detailed understanding of what the soul is.
Raval maintains that medical
schools belittle the study of non-conventional methods of cancer treatment in
favor of conventional methods such as radiation, chemotherapy, and treatment
through machines.'
Medical schools teach students
that the human being is only a body. But the mind has the power to cure the
body. By definition, psychosomatic means a combination of mind, or soul and
body.
The soul creates the disease, but
the body suffers. If the psyche creates the disease, the only way to cure it is
through the psyche. It's a very simple formula: treating the seed of the
problem.
Further, studies in parapsychology
all point to the treatment of illness through treatment of the soul.
The World Spiritual University,
which has branches in 30 countries, teaches peace and perfection for health and
happiness through the use of Raja yoga. The university gained status as a
non-governmental member of the United Nations and has offices at the U.N.
building in New York.
Raja
yoga teaches students to search their soul world for answers on where they came
from and why the cancer entered their body. They learn what role religion,
stress, family and lifestyle played in the cancer.
