Spiritual Connections

Dora Kunz, Therapeutic Touch, and Theosophy

Dora Kunz is the co-founder of Therapeutic Touch and president of the American Theosophical Society. She is also chief editor of the Theosophical Publishing House, Wheaton, Illinois. Kunz is a self-avowed psychic claiming clairvoyant abilities to see into the supernatural. She maintains that she is the fourteenth generation of her family to be able to do so.

Theosophy is a religious practice, founded by spiritist Helena Blavatsky in 1851. Theosophy promotes contact with spirits (Monads), is inclusive of all religions as equal expressions of an impersonal, unknowable God, and is rooted deeply in the Hindu philosophy of karma and reincarnation.  

Kunz incorporated many of her spiritual beliefs in Therapeutic Touch. Practitioners are encouraged to contact spirit guides, develop their clairvoyant abilities, and become channels for spiritual beings and angels. These abilities are used to facilitate the "healing process".  For more information, get ready to buy the fascinating book: The Occult Invasion of Health Care: the Changing Face of Spirituality In Medicine.
