Radical Healing and the Rebirth of Science
Rudolph Ballentine, MD

The natural, holistic approach to healing has grabbed our attention because it works. With it, people are recovering from illnesses that were "incurable." This sort of Holistic Medicine is radical -- it uses principles beyond the scope of "science." It operates in worlds where archetypal consciousness holds sway and where energy shifts reshape physical events. These worlds have been ignored by the science of the past; but with degenerative diseases rampant and immune systems under increasing attack, reframing science to accommodate what goes on in the healing session is not mere academics. We've got to look at it. Thus is holistic medicine dragging science (kicking and screaming) into a new era.

In this lecture/question and answer session, you will discover how the realms of mythical and magical consciousness (where healers work their magic) can be brought into the field of scientific inquiry. You will see how a new integral consciousness is emerging - that will alter science profoundly, extending its domain beyond the constraints of time, space and causality - and that will transform the way we inhabit Planet Earth.

Being and Vibration
Joseph Rael

This presentation is about language and sound and how it relates being and vibration to us. Joseph explains from the Picuris Tiwa linguistic world view, in the context of onomatopoeia, how the formation of a word by imitating the natural sound associated with the objective or action involved is used. He will share essentials of how to use words whose sounds reinforce their meaning or tone as in poetry and will explain how the Tiwa world view in the spoken language describes the holy existence of life in all things created.
