1000 years ago in Europe before the Christian tribes originally had a goddess culture – a matriarchy where the earth and worshiped nature and their cycles and secrets. In pre-industrial societies illness was not as “indiscriminate attacks from the outside, but as an important event in the life of each of the suffering – spiritual, moral, physical and life course – past, present and future. Messages Dis – Ease was full of moral, spiritual and religious as one of the many ways God reveals his will to interpret men. Different philosophy of medicine such as Ayurveda or Tibetan thinks similarly, in these, the disease has a karmic aspect.

Around the tenth century in Europe – after the call “- medieval women, were the original land (men are” animals “), which was expropriated by the authorities of the new Patriarch of the Church and state. This hierarchy Men hid things they fear most is the fact that women hold the key processes and skills for life. They also take their own decrees on how we behave to impose control and inventing ‘original sin “. Combined with a prolonged persecution of women is particularly interested in one of the healing process. Some sources suggest that about 5 to 9 million women were destroyed across Europe during this persecution. In essence, the role of women as healers and midwives was discouraged and “foster home” and its many associated skills is still considered a career as “worthless”, according to our primarily fiscal values based on GDP.

When one has a matriarchy to patriarchy as a fundamental change of paradigm, one of the most important things that have happened is that the “healing” and “spirituality” separately, as an instrument of control. The autonomous world of the mind and body have been and are still more men in the great “Age of Reason,” which began with Descartes and Newton, the tail, many of which are now in despair and the degree autonomy interest applied.

René Descartes (1596 – 1650) was a decisive influence on the revolution of the 17th century, who began the modern science and philosophy. His “method of doubt” was published in 1637:
“I have decided to reject as false everything I could imagine the least doubt, to see if there is anything at that time was still totally beyond doubt.”

The philosophy of ‘Cartesian dualism’ became part of our science, where mind and body, seen as largely separate. The “yes” knowing that there is an “I” has not been seen in the substantial physics. Reckless (which is not Descartes intention) this philosophy contributed to the mechanistic and rational philosophy of the universe that is our culture. Descartes was one of the first issues that the phenomena of decomposition into parts and examining each could be included. His vision of the human body as a machine that operates in mechanical universe prevalence has increased in the “Age of Reason.”

“We see the human body as a machine. My thought compares a sick man and a clock wrong with my idea of a healthy man and a watch repaired.

This attention to detail of the analysis is always the focus of our scientific methods. Produced after Western medicine has “world of vaccines and antibiotics. Her medicines and surgical techniques that can do amazing things to create. Almost completely destroyed all serious diseases) (in the first world, as leprosy, fever, tuberculosis, tetanus, syphilis, women of rheumatic fever, pneumonia, meningitis, polio, blood poisoning. There are very few die in childbirth than ever. Western medicine has been and is a triumph over issues that affect us then deal with how cancer and heart disease today. Even major health problems in the 1930s and 40 have literally disappeared.

The age of infectious diseases has been the age of chronic diseases. The main causes of today are the heart and circulatory diseases, chronic degenerative diseases and incurable cancer, especially, and rising incidence. The strategies that worked so well for all but eliminating acute infectious diseases not seem to work in chronic and degenerative diseases.

“The prevalence of asthma, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome immune deficiency, HIV and a host of other debilitating diseases is increasing. Biomedicine conventional – very effective in the treatment of overwhelming infections, the medical and surgical emergencies and congenital malformations happened in the course of these conditions. ”
James Gordon MD, Washington, DC,

Seen even at the time of Sir Isaac Newton, the human body as a complex biological machine. The universe is a mechanism for the orderly, predictable but divine “Big Clock”. Although hundreds of years have passed, Western scientific medicine is still the same basic philosophy, but more sophisticated techniques to examine the biological mechanisms at the molecular level.

The first Newtonian approaches were essentially surgical. The body was visible, as if it were a complex plumbing system. If he missed the offensive piece was removed or ignored. These days, instead of knives, drugs are often used more or less the same things.

But men are much more than walking sacks of chemicals. The life force that animates the key to other medical systems, energy is not directed by the modern scientific method, and no Western medical models of what is and what he said. E false idea that all diseases are cured physically repairing or eliminating abnormal cells. This is partly due to a conflict between “the West” and “Eastern Philosophy” and has its roots in the gap between science and religion with the destruction of folk medicine in the United States and Europe.

Cancer can be treated effectively in the philosophy of reductionism. Cancer science has failed to find a cure, is wanted in the wrong place with the wrong tools. Cancer should be understood as a disease of “all” of the experience of the individual and the culture they are involved. It has several causes, which vary for each patient. The strategies that worked so well for the treatment of infectious diseases are not sufficient to combat chronic and degenerative diseases. Cancer patients at best will always be ‘patches’ of orthodox treatments, but the rising costs of health care.
