After hearing from a friend of my mother's who is a healer that this was the best healing book she has ever read, and seeing so many positive reviews here, I was excited about what I would learn from this book, especially being a musician who is now studying natural therapies and am particularly interested in using music to heal.
After I got to the end, I thought "What the?". Did I miss something?
Don't get me wrong - I completed a couple of science degrees before deciding to return to studies in natural medicine, so I consider myself to be quite intelligent. But I found by the end of the book that I had no idea how to apply these so called "healing frequencies", as although they listed frequencies that are supposedly the 6 healing sounds, there was no mention as to what you are actually meant to do with them, let alone how you can actually generate them (as they don't correspond with any of the frequencies generated by musical instruments).
I also find it a little disturbing that the only healing method discussed - herbal medicine - stated that if you could select a herb to use to treat a complaint via pythagorian skein numbers, then "virtually anyone who practices herbal healing using this technique can become a master herbalist". This is done by assigning a number to each letter (A=1, B=2 etc), then adding them up until you are left with a single digit number (eg acne = 1 + 3 + 14 + 5 = 23 = 5) and then choosing a herb that also adds up to that number as the treatment..! Err... it takes several years of training to become even a basic herbalist as there is a little more to herbal medicine than that, such as some herbs / potencies being poisonous! I've been aware of the pythagorean skeins since I was a little child, as there are all sorts of fun things you can do by assigning numbers to letters and adding them up. In primary school, it was common to determine your "compatability" with a member of the opposite sex via that method. It was fun, but unlikely to give a truly reliable result! Would you trust someone to treat your illness by simply applying that method to their healing modality of choice?
Nor did I manage to follow how they managed to "crack the code" of the bible (well, it was by divine revelation - you have to take what they say on faith). I don't doubt that the bible has been heavily tampered with, but the amount of things the authors have "read into" most of the bible seem a bit far fetched. Perhaps I'm just not one of the 144,000 Horowitz so arrogantly states that this book is "clearly for".
After they revealed these "codes" midway through the book, the remainder of the book was the most outlandish bunch of conspiracy theories I've ever read. I consider myself to be quite open minded despite my scientific training, especially having grown up with "new age" parents who have had friends and acquaintances with some quite eccentric beliefs, but this was too much. The conspiracy theories were interesting to consider, but the scope seems quite over the top, especially if it is true that the only way the human race can be saved from inevitable death by biological warfare is if 144,000 people learn to sing these 6 healing frequencies. Hmmm.
Don't waste your money. I intend to try to sell my copy on ebay to try to recoup some of the money I wasted on it - reading it once was more than enough!
