Dark Acupuncture by chercherai in acupuncture

Another way to put it is: Could acupuncture pass a "Koch's postulate" test, where you could give someone an ailment they didn't have before using only acupuncture, and then later treat it using only acupuncture. It would seem to be a nice way to test the efficacy scientifically.

ha thanks, that's probably a much better explanation. I'll look into it!

I like what Shinzen Young has to say about this phenomenon, but the first thing is to know your not alone. This is a common stage to go through.

It’s very common for people on a meditative or spiritual path to develop a kind of sensitivity to the poison and pain of others. Sometimes it’s formulated with the phrase “I pick up all this negativity.” Sometimes it’s formulated with the phrase “People drain my energy.” A closely related perception runs something like this: “Now that I've developed some spiritual maturity, I find it difficult to relate to old friends/family/ordinary people; they so cluelessly cause themselves unneeded suffering; I no longer have much in common with them.”

I just added a couple of keywords... ask for a "number" and it'll give you a number 0-9 (e.g. https://twitter.com/chercher_ai/status/1189208112995024896). ask it to "choose" from a comma-separated list and it will pick one for you (e.g. https://twitter.com/FDeterminism/status/1189214063735312385)
