Astara's healing science

Form of spiritual healing advanced by Astara, Inc., a neo-Christian, interfaith church founded in 1951 by Drs. Earlyne C. Chaney and Robert G. Chaney. Earlyne Chaney is the author of Initiation in the Great Pyramid, Lost Empire of the Gods, and at least six other books. Her academic titles include "Doctor of Divinity," "Doctor of Philosophy," and "Doctor of Humanities in Spiritual and Psychic Sciences." Robert Chaney is the author of The Power of Your Own Medicine (Astara, 1995) and at least ten other books. Astara's healing science apparently encompasses absent healing, crystal healing, mental visualizations, and "scientific prayer." Its theory posits "etheric contacts" and a "White Light" with "magnetic energies."
