ABSTRACT :
The study
of
the paranormal
is beneficial since it reveals
aspects of human psychology and human information processing. However,
study of the paranormal should be tempered with skepticism. Research on
miracles and other psi phenomena suffer from witness credibility, human
credulity, tribal origins of superstition and conflicts of testimony on
miraculous events. Critical skepticism allows the researcher to keep an
open mind
by
not
rejecting
disputed claims
on the basis of prior
conviction.
DESCRIPTORS: Philosophy -- Evaluation; Skepticism -- Evaluation; Miracles --
Evaluation; Pattern perception (Psychology) -- Analysis
.. is impossible that the religious traditions of "ancient Rome, of
Turkey, of Siam, and of *China*" can all be established on a solid
foundation. Every miracle claimed within any one of ... incontrovertible
evidence for psi is at best inconclusive. The psychologist David Marks
argues that until *parapsychology* produces at least one repeatable
demonstration it can be justifiably ignored (Marks 1986: 123) .

Supernatural traffic: East Asian shamanism.
Kendall, Laurel.

Culture, Medicine and Psychiatry
5 (2) : 171-191, 1981.
Languages : English
Six Korean Women: The Socialization of Shamans (Harvey, 1979) is reviewed
and comments are made on the impact of these women and of other indigenous
therapists
on
contemporary
medical
systems. The state of
the art of
shamanism
in
Korea is examined, along with that in Japan and China. Broad
themes
which
are seen as emerging from the sudy of East Asian shamans are
suggested.
It is
argued
that :
1).
ancestors, ghosts, and shamans have
established
working relationships
in
all
three societies and writers
acknowledge
the
cultural
appropriateness
of
their ascriptions
of
supernatural
malaise; 2) women are the most active agents in consultation
with
shamans
despite efforts to undermine the woman's ritual authority in
peasant
households
by
urbanization and contradictory
socialization
experiences
outside
of
the home; and 3) shamanism in the three societies
reflect
common
therapies
and operate under common social constraints. 89

Parapsychology in communist countries.
Iron curtain ESP.
Ebon, Martin.

Human Behavior
7 (11) :38-41, 1978.
Languages: English
The current state of parapsychology in communist countries, particularly
in
China
and the
Soviet
Union, is
reviewed.
The official government
position
of both countries is that parapsychology is just another face of
religion
or mysticism and it is used as a propaganda issue. Such research
in
the
U.S. or in the major communist countries is deplored as a sign of
political
and cultural disintegration. Nevertheless, parapsychological
research
is going on in China, in the Soviet Union, and in eastern Europe,
although
these scientists are often discouraged from contacts with Western
colleagues. The current pattern of such research in communist countries is
characterized
as chaotic
with
great
deal of pulling ahd hauling at
various political and scientific levels behind the scenes.

Traditional and modern health care: an appraisal of complementarity.
New, Peter Kong-ming.
Dept. of
Behavioral
Science, University of Toronto, 21 St. Joseph St.,
Toronto, Ontario M5S 1A1, Canada
International Social Science Journal
29 (3) : 483-495, 1977.
Languages : English
The
complementarity
with
attention to
the reasons that persons seek health care in the first
of
traditional and modern health care is discussed
place
and
to
national
policies
of
integrating the fields of magic and
medicine. Beliefs regarding magic and science often determine which path a
person may take, but magic and science may also coexist within a single
belief
system.
Patients often fluctuate between choosing medicine and
choosing magic as a therapeutic approach to any ailment. Other ailments may
be ignored completely due
to societal
acceptance of the notion that
everyone suffers from some particular problem, and the corresponding denial
of legitimacy for anyone to seek treatment for that ailment. Often the most
logical approach to health delivery is to integrate Western and traditional
medicinal
approaches .
Although
Western medicine has resisted such
approaches,
communist
it
China
has for
some
time been committed to this
practice,
and
is
hoped
that future researchers will be permitted to
assess its effectiveness in mainland China. 54 references.

A collection
of
papers
is presented which details the lack of modern
psychotherapeutic programs
and the abundance of indigenous health methods
on which the majority of the peoples of Southeast Asia and the Pacific rely
for
mental
health service. Therapeutic factors
inherent in indigenous
programs are examined, and collaboration with native folk healers (who are
in closer contact with the populations than the medical communities) is
urged. A
range of substantive and methodological themes in transcultural
psychiatry
is covered, including Latah, epidemic hysteria, possession, and
malgri.
Other chapters
focus
on
indigenous
healing
practices in the
Philippines,
Polynesia,
Malaysia,
Taiwan, Korea, Japan, China, and among
the Maori of New Zealand.

The personification of opposites. 5. Sal. b. The bitterness.
Jung, C. G.
no address
In: Jung, C., Collected Works of C. G. Jung, Vol. 14
2nd ed., Princeton
University Press, 1970. 702 p. (p. 192-198) .
Languages : English
Original Language: German
Associated with salt and sea is the quality of bitterness, an alchemical
not only the sharp salt taste of the sea water, but also
term
connot ing
corruption and imperfection.
This corruption is the quality of the prima
materia, which is synonymous in alchemical and mythological tradition with
chaos
and the sea.
It is noted that the sea was often characterized as
something impure in ancient cultures, especially that of Egypt and Greece;
in the same cultures and in ancient China as well, salt is often found
characterized
as a spirit and identified with a bird. This bird represents
the spirit
of
corruption expelled from an impure substance which is made
pure thereby;
it
is
usually
said to have many colors. This and other
spirits
of
impurity
constitute
that part of the universe which is still
chaos,
and
in
the
psychological
sense, that part of the psyche which
remains
unconscious.
As
spirit
of
chaos
is
indispensable to the
the
alchemical
world order,
so the unconscious is essential to the balanced
working of the mind. 1 reference.

Song of the siren: a parapsychological odyssey.
Krippner, Stanley.
no address
New York, Harper and Row, 1975. 311 p. $12.50
Languages : English
The
experiences
Stanley
Krippner with regard to parapsychology are
described in a semiautobiographical treatise. The account begins with the
author's
first
paranormal
experience at the age of 14 when he had the
his
sudden conviction
that
uncle had just died, and continues with his
youthful activity in the field of legerdemain and the exciting obtrusion
into some
of his mentalism tricks of genuinely paranormal intuition. As a
student he was further stimulated by the active resistance of the academic
establishment
to
parapsychology .
With
maturity
the
odyssey
in
parapsychological
experiences
became wider
ranging, including visits to
foreign countries
and
renowned
psychokinetics and psychics. Experiences
noted in Russia, Brazil, Czechoslovakia, China, Japan, and the Philippines
are
described,
with
detailed
information on
the parapsychological
individuals
involved
in these travels. Those so described include Rolling
Thunder,
K.
Ramakrishna Rao, Uri Geller, and Mme. Kulagina. In addition,
results
of
experimentation carried out by Krippner and his associates at
the Maimonides
Dream
Laboratory are described.
From these studies 20
altered states
of
consciousness
have
been
outlined, including some at
variance with definitions used in modern psychiatry.
