Hughes 6 ; Walsh Part IV

Walsh IV-
I liked the reference to the patient who has problems and is asked to bring forth a rock to the shaman and asked during the ASC the visions he see's in the rock can heel himself. Also what was interesting was how the Eskimo shaman does his healing process with the belt. Also what I found to be different was that the shaman himself can seek answers to questions or probelms he faces while healing someone else. I don't know if I going along believing the theory about cancer and as soon as it's gone you don't think about it but the moment you do, it's back. I think the prayers and medicane do the healing! Also what I was stunned about is that the more popular a shaman becomes the more he can't devote the needed time to someone, my question is does he have helpers?

Hughes 6-
This chapter really related to me in more ways than one. As a little girl my father wanted me to play the panio and even though I did not want to he wanted me to. As Hughes states, "In this regard the desire to please the parent may be a major facotr in the artist's motavation." -80. Endless love is also considered and ASC because Tart said, " its a passionate absorption in the object of desire, to the exlusion of much else in the world, a combination of arousal, love, and total focus." -82. When you are in love there is nothing in the world that can stop you from loving that person and having feelings for them. I beleive that sex isn't everything because behind the lust must lie passion of love. In order to have sexual relationships you must love someone, not in most terms but people will say nah there just a person to have fun with but they don't like to show their emotions.
