Are you misinterpreting here? Or am I not being specific enough? "They
swear that amateurs are better because they love it." Here, I assume you
are calling /alternative health practitioners/ amateurs. If the only
/professional/ health practitioner to you is one that has gone to
"medical school" then .... what? Really. What has payment to do with
anything? It used to be that one paid with whatever one could, be it
coin, rutabagas, chickens, work in kind or prayers of thanks. Does it
not all come down to the "system of coin" damaging the interactions of
individuals, communities and societies?
My point below is that "the placebo usually does as much healing as the
pharmaceutical mendicant and sometimes more". The /intention/ to heal,
consciously taken generally has more positive effect than slapping a
prescription in someone's hand; or if the herbalist convinces the
patient that their concoction will help, it does; or if the priest
convinces the parishioner that prayer will help, it does. Meaning that
if the mind holding the illness can be convinced that something - no
matter what - will help, it does. Change the mind. Change the "being".
You can /be/ ill or you can /be/ healthy. /Belief/ appears more and more
in studies to be the key. It is that /belief/ that puts us in
"connection"; that joins us - to each other and to the energy that has
Created.

I didn't say that the Shamans believe that they are better because of
love, although love is the doorway to the connection, I said that the
people who go to them with the same expectation as allopathic medicine
ascribe a benefit to a lack of payment that is healing. They get
something for nothing because the healer is healing out of love and
not for money. It's a bastardization of the two systems and
constitutes ignorance that makes balance impossible. Like the guys
who charge for the big sweatlodges as if it were western science and
the people who try to get cured for nothing. Who'se going to pay
the requirement for the balance? Shamanic medicine is often
holistically more expensive than Allopathic payments.

Not just love it. Their minds are directed toward healing the /cause/
not analyzing the /symptoms/ for continued treatment. And now, from
research, we know that the /mind/ has a far greater influence on the
outcome of health than most external phenomena. So, caring,
empathizing with someone may be just as viable a treatment as anything
that has a /concrete/, physical mode because it changes the /mind/ of
the patient to one of a more positive outlook .

In these days of the decline of professional orchestras and, more
than likely, a long term economic depression in front of us, it's
as well to remind ourselves that classical (that is, fully
developed) music can still survive in good heart. A long term
friend (and customer) of mine, the president of San Francisco
Lyric Chorus, spent two years organizing a concert in which,
Saturday last, one of the greatest choral works of all time was
performed -- Berlioz's Requiem. It involved over 100 amateur
orchestral players in San Francisco and a larger choir selected
from over 30 others in the Bay area and further afield, including
40 singers from New York. The programme filled San Francisco's
Davies Symphony Hall and the performance was described by the San
Francisco Chronicle as the "Mega-Concert of the Year. Or Years."
For those interested, a 1.5-minute snitch of the volunteer
orchestra rehearsing Strauss' Sunrise from Also Sprach Zarathustra
(performed in the first half of the concert) may be seen and heard
