Jim Kent: On behalf of the whole 'shrink' community we apologize for being so closed-minded. There are some people in the field who are also practicing 'shamans' and variety within the field... but hey, please bulk us into one category.
There is a stark difference in brain activity when comparing voices heard during psychosis and non-psychosis... and there is a way to distinguish what is psychosis and what is 'culturally normal' response to stress/distress, e.g., some people will see their ancestors or loved ones who passed on or hear voices while going through mourning. Buuut not everyone in the field is able to understand these things. It's rather representative of the general population of 'awaken' and 'sleeping' population. So please by all means call us shrinks, but also know it's representative of any human level of consciousness.
