There was a period of time, before the appearance of Europeans on the continent, that the Nephilim did not have this “rule” or “compulsion” to keep their existence hidden from humans. The Bigfoot were known to the Native Americans by many names. Legends and lore sprang up from the Native American’s interaction with the Bigfoot. The Native Americans always considered them to be a “society” or “tribe.” The relationship the Bigfoot tribes had with the Native Americans was precarious at best. Many Native American tribes described the Bigfoot as cannibals, mountain devils, kidnappers, rapist, and thieves.
Bigfoot is, without a doubt, the most recognized mystery in all of North America. The apelike being has reportedly been sighted thousands of times since the beginning of the 19th century. According to eyewitness testimonies, Bigfoot, also known as Sasqautch, is a gigantic beast that towers in at eight feet tall and weighs as much as six hundred pounds. Reports also say that the monster’s form is well built and usually covered in a thick, brownish fur. Many have asked if such a creature could possibly be roaming through the wilderness of North America and around the world, and the answer is yes. The amount of evidence supporting such a creature’s existence is astonishing. From footprint casting and fur samples to video evidence and numerous human sightings, Bigfoot’s existence cannot be doubted.
A mountain man is a male trapper and explorer who lives in the mountains. Mountain men were most common around the North American Rocky Mountains from around 1810 through the 1800s. Almost 3,000 mountain men were in the mountains at around 1820 and 1840, the peak beaver harvest period. While there were many free trappers, most mountain men were employed by major fur companies. The life of company men was nearly militarized. The men who had the company also had mess groups that hunted and trapped in brigades and they all reported to the head of the party. Mountain men rose up in geographic and economic expansion driven by huge earnings in the North American fur trade (wickipedia).
When comparing the healing philosophy that underpins healing practices of the indigenous tribes it’s evident that all cultures share similar beliefs.
More times than not, stallions mount dummies because horses are much less docile in reproductive situations than cattle are. In most situations, artificial insemination is also safer for the humans involved in the process as well. Though we consider horses are the most-likely to be considered companion animals out of all the livestock that we have domesticated thus far, they are also one of the most dangerous when it comes to mating and copulation. Mares and fillies are much more likely to try to fight back when being mounted than cows or heifers are. In commercial situations, such as the thoroughbred industry, this causes lots of problems. While it is still done, it is much less likely for owners to turn out the stallions with a herd of mares
Throughout the 150 year history of Bigfoot, many concerns have been raised, the most in number being from Native Americans. The Karok Indians tell of an “upslope person” who lurks far up in the mountains (Gaffron, 22-24). Some medicine men have told stories of “snow-walkers” that haunt the Forrest depths (Short). The creatures North American habitat covers over 125,000 square miles of forest, contained in the states of Oregon, Washington, and California, constituting a large number of Native American tribes to encounter and frighten (Gaffron, 22). This phenomenon is not just a Native American one told by medicine men, and tribe leaders, Bigfoot plays an enormous role in the ancient folklore of such civilizations as, the Russians, Greeks, and Anglo-Saxons (Brunvand).
With this in mind whatever method is chosen, modern medicine or alternative, spiritual healing is a crucial part of the whole process of healing.
Ross defines and differentiates between the terms healing and curing. She recognizes the fact that healing and curing are very intertwined and it can be hard to distinguish between the two terms. There are differences between the definitions in scholarly and general settings. She references an ethnographic study of healing versus curing conducted by anthropologists Andrew Strathern and Pamela Stewart in 1999 with native groups in New Guinea. The results of the study looked at how energy used by the different types of tribal healers to either cure or heal a patient. Eastern medicine focuses on how energy interacts with the healing process in connection within the mind. Whereas Western medicine is focused on the mind and the body separately. The practice is considered a holistic approach to finding cures. According to Ross (2013), healing is more a therapeutic process targeting the whole body and specific illness including emotional, mental, and social aspects in the treatment. The act of curing is a pragmatic approach that focuses on removing the problem all together. The life experiences of a person playing into how well certain treatments will heal or cure what is ailing them. These aspects can not be defined with textbook definitions. The interaction that the healing process has with energy is a variable in the success rate. Uncontrolled emotions can have a greater impact on the inside the body than a person can realize. The exploration of energy interaction within the body can be used for greater analysis of health care systems. (21-22). Are Western healthcare facilities purposely “curing” patients just so that they return are few years later? Is Western Medicine built upon a negative feedback loop? The terminolo...

Western medicine has recently discovered the powerful affects of meditation, by allowing doctors to treat the body and the mind. In reality, the mind is a very misunderstood and unexplored region of the human existence. Modern science knows more about the composition of the earth than it does about the mechanics of the human brain. Yet, meditation thwarts all notions of modern medicine with its shocking ability to to take obscure visualizations and create physical responses in the body. Mahayana Buddhism, found mainly in the autonomous region of Tibet, has become the main reference and standard for meditation practices in the west. Tibetans have used meditation for centuries as treatment for illness, and now, modern medicine of the western world is just beginning to reap the benefits of this unique and unconventional treatment for a variety of physical and mental ailments. Once a practice reserved strictly for Buddhist monks, meditation has become a worldwide phenomenon. Simply enter “Buddhist meditation” into the any Inter...
Eastern practices are greatly focused upon religion and philosophy. These practices are heavily based upon observations, subjectivity, and feelings. A Western nurse, on learning of the practices of eastern medicine stated, “Eastern philosophy attempts to remind us that as human beings, we are similar to all in nature, nothing more, nothing less.” (Griff p. 37). Tibetan methods of diagnosis are far mo...

The physical world includes everything that is tangible to a human eye, and the spiritual or the unseen environment includes all the things we can’t see, but still can sense in spirit. Ivan life is a great example for not having one aspect of a healing environment. When he reached to the point on his bed about to die, nobody trusted and get close to him. He died with a great regret. As a human being we all need all three aspects of a healing environment in order to be
