The author poses an entirely false dichotomy between "heart" wisdom and "brain" knowledge. I have news for him -- if he did not have a positive brain he could not have written this or other books and could not communicate period. The brain is NOT, repeat NOT a negative hostile entity, as he posits. Having integrated body wisdom is important. People cannot function adequately and positively -- they cannot think, act or anything else -- unless they utilize both brain and heart. I am sorry that Paul Pearsall's docs missed the clues of his lymphoma for so long -- but that does not make their brains -- nor his -- nor the brains of others - hostile and negative entities. I was going to sell my copy to a used book store but I think I will just put it in my recycle bin to reduce the risk that someone who knows little would be misled by it. Oh, and Chinese medicine does not refer to "chakras" - never! That is a Hindu concept. How ignorant can he be?
