Hello Rawn, By what means are you distinguishing those health problems that have to do with personal astra-mental issues from problems that deal with species karma? Earlier in the last century, a dentist/anthropologist named Weston Price did a number of studies on various indigenous populations around the globe, focusing on diet and teeth deformations, and found that in those populations that stayed with their native diets, tooth problems such as tooth decay, misshapen dental arches, and impacted teeth were very uncommon. It was solely when the main diet had been changed to a more "modern" diet (e.g. with higher sugar and processed- food content) that teeth problems began to manifest. Correct me if I'm wrong, but your statement struck me as assuming that impacted wisdom teeth are a part of the inevitable progress of human evolution; whereas Price's research would seem to indicate that on some level tooth problems have to do with individual (though also group/social) choices about things like diet. In those terms, wouldn't that deal with personal astra-mental issues, even if not something easily resolvable? Thanks, David (ldreamr)
