I never said it was the only message. I am just saying it is a simple message to understand for most. It is a good "ground breaker" so to speak.

Sheba agree with all you've said on this.
Have you read Judith Orloff's book? I think it was called Intuitive Healing. She is very interesting on schizophrenia.
No, not familiar (but checked out the description on Amazon). What does she say about schizophrenia?
She's a psychiatrist but with intuitive abilities which she kept secret for a long time because of the profession she was in. She found that in working with schizophrenics that only a small percentage were actually truly schizophrenic and needed meds (for all the reasons you have already given).
But she found that the majority were actually actually suffering from what she saw as spiritual illness. ie they were really open and picking up on other people's thoughts, or were psychic but with no understanding of how to manage their ability so it was literally driving them crazy.
It's been a long time since I read the book but it was very interesting on how healing and 'spiritual' and educational coaching could help some diagnosed as schizophrenic could come to live with their heightened abilities. Her biggest issue was that the current system has no facility to deal with this sort of person. And without the guidance/coaching they are doomed to a much worse fate than medical schizophrenic who do respond to medication.
I haven't kept up with what she is doing now so don't know if she has made any progress with any of this.

Where do I find the map co-ordinates? Or, perhaps, someone would link me to the actual map?

Totally agree with everything you say here and from my memory (though has been quite a while since I read book so I may be wrong) this is pretty much what she said. Her point though was that there is a percentage (as low as 5%) I think that have actual brain chemistry issues which will necessitate medication for life. The rest fall into the categories you describe who may need meds to get them through the worst patch but more importantly need a much more holistic type of therapy to recover in the long term than the system currently offers. That was her big issue in that book. mainly that they system doesn't really recognise the spirit and how the therapy offered has to be a lot more intuitive and spirit centered than is presently seen as acceptable in the psychiatric / theraputic model.
As I said I don't know what she is doing today or if she is even still working as a psychiatrist. Must look her up...

Hi TNT, it was just a google glitch -- it's working again. Go to the Record and read omiyaru's post... I don't want to repeat the coordinates or address here. It's someone's house.

Too late now that a few people already saw it and someone can just post it again.
