The Origins of Medicine with David K. Osborn

David K. Osborn is an herbalist, licensed acupuncturist, medical astrologer and the founder of the website, www.GreekMedicine.net.

Here he points out the connection between the philosophy underlying the practice of medicine in ancient Greece, and the teachings of the early pre-Socratic philosophers such as Empedocles, who developed the concept of four elements in nature. He also notes the relationship between medicine and altered states of consciousness — focusing on the Asclepeions, or sleep temples, in the ancient world. He also describes how the Hermetic principle of “As Above, So Below” applies to the ancient practice of medicine.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980).
