Product Description

Review

'With penetrating insight and meticulous research, Dr Dossey reveals the power of prayer to harm as well as to help. This book will forever change how you think and what you pray for.' Joan Borysenko, Ph.D. 'Dossey's intelligent and passionate work will bring readers closer to the conviction that their personal interventions into the divine order are effective - sometimes too much so.' Publishers Weekly


Product Description

This text warns that just as prayer can be used to positively affect health, it can also be used for negative and destructive means. Through true stories, case histories, and scientific analysis, the author explores the nature of "toxic" prayer and teaches us how we can protect ourselves.

4.0 out of 5 stars the effects of directed prayer, 24 Mar 2008
The other review is very odd: this book, emphatically and explicitly, is talking about the prayers used in all religions, including Protestant Christianity, especially those related to healing and harming, and about the laboratory evidence for "non-local" effects of directed intention. It's valuable (even if it turns out that many of these effects are illusory) by pointing out how often doctors may unthinkingly blight their patients' prospects by saying "It's your funeral", "You should be operated on at once, preferably yesterday" and so on. It's also valuable in that it raises serious questions about the "non-locality of mind" (how much can we influence outside our own bodies, and what can we do to protect ourselves against other influences?". The author doesn't seem to have a settled view of the metaphysics of this, though his usual suggestion is that demons are more likely to be aspects of our own selves than separate entities. Whether and to what extent God enters the equation is uncertain. Overall, an interesting and balanced exploration. And nothing to do with "Satanists" or "Occultists".

5.0 out of 5 stars Be Careful What You Pray For, You Might Just Get It: What We Can Do About the Unintentional Effects of Our Thoughts, Prayers and, 9 Sep 2006
This is an excellent book. It covers mainly prayers used by Occultists and Satanists. You will be amazed to learn that Catholic Priests used to invoke Demons in thier Prayers.
