    The phenomenon of healing and the noumenon of consciousness are the ends
of a complex and long spectrum consisting of stages in awareness. Both
the neumenon and the phenomenon need to be synthesized into our daily lives
to maintain homeostasis, to promote healing and ultimately, if possible
to achieve transcendence. Needless to say, this is a life long endeavor.
 

 This talk will attempt to examine recent advances in Energy Medicine research
with a view to understand the direction of enquiry in the movement in phenomenon.
However, the ultimate goal to is transcend phenomenon itself; hence, a
review of literature around the world is undertaken to focus thoughts on
neumenon. The underlying unity in the expressions in spiritual experiences
over many centuries and in many parts of the world point to the idea that
neumenon is in fact the objective while phenomenon is the subjective aspect
of our experience. This also confirms the current scientific view that
science is subjective in its core.  

 It is time then to reverse our ideas of subjective and objective. The
science that has a subject investigating is the subjective science while
a science that goes beyond the subject who investigates is the objective
science. Another way to look at this is a science that has an object in
focus is a subjective science while one that has no object to focus on
is an objective science! Needless to say, we should be moving from the
subjective to the objective as we proceed in life. While this may not be
the end of all discussions in subjective/objective debate, at least it
could open the doors of our perception to healing and its place in consciousness.
