Q37 Do supernatural power, spirit medical treatment, religion activity, etc. belong to a psychotherapy in a large meaning? A The principle of supernatural power is almost the same as a hand power. Some special energies are emitted from a medical treatment person's inside of the body, and it is thought that it affects a patient's body. But, a thing except emotional strength cannot be being checked in the present condition. As for a spirit treatment, it becomes a major premise that the spirit exists. This treatment will also carry out mind which even implication does not require, if a patient does not have recognition of the existence of the spirit. But, almost all human beings are unconscious and accept existence of the spirit. Therefore, it is effective in it being unexpected. Let's suppose "religion activity." Even if it calls it religion activity, it is variously. But, it limits with "religion activity related to a medical treatment act" here. Various religion from great to smallness exists in the present world. Those religion most is related to a "medical treatment act" in a certain form. Christianity is taken for an example. Then, in case Christ who is a founder of a religion spreads, he is treating many sick persons. Probably, it was the most intelligible to have cured illness in order to have preached to the ordinary man. After Christ's death, difficult various thought is applied and is systematized. But, probably, those days the religious group was born, the following troupes were almost the case. "You can cure my illness. So, I listen to what you say, and follow." It is written also to the Buddhistic Buddhist Scripture that Gautama Buddha did medical treatment activities. It is doing that other great religious groups' founder was also alike. An eye is turned to the present new religion. Then, almost all religious groups are performing medical treatment activities. Because their histories are shallow, there are not few religious groups which have put medical treatment activities on the main of whole activity. Although a metaphor is bad, these religious groups will advertise gaily like health food, saying "there was divine favor", if one person illness heals up among ten persons. In order for a religious group to also work, capital enters. It is just going to be in efforts how alms are collected from a believer. But, an ordinary person has a few feeling of resistance in using money on a thing more nearly corporal than a mental thing. In order to raise one's soul by one step, there are little people who pay 5000 dollars. However, if "A work disease is cured for 5000 dollars" is said, they will pay in spite of himself. "A religious group receives sick and gives a believer a guilty feeling. They purify his soul, after a general way makes him self-train." Such a pattern is the standard medical treatment act which the religious body is performing. As for the medical treatment activities which a religious body performs, eye the collection of capital has many target cases. But, many talks said "Illness healed up as a result of the patient forsaken from the doctor leaning on religion" are reported irrespective of all ages and countries. Probably, inside also has a religious body's advertisement. But, there is also an example which accepts regularly also from a medicine meeting. The religious body has called this a "miracle", "the love of God", "mercy", etc. It will be better to think that the healthy maintenance system which we have committed the actual place. Although it seems that it is contradictory to having stated above, originally the healthy maintenance system which we have is strong. However, it does not work effectively by various factors. As a result, a functional fall is imitated and it is. If a healthy maintenance system works effectively, even if it does not depend on medicine etc., general illness will heal up.
