message: The following text
:"A randomized clinical trial of Merzel's Big Mind method showed statistically significant differences between the treatment and control groups for all parameters measured, though Johnson notes that the reported effects may also result from factors such as group effect, suggestibility, and/or simple expectation, and that the study may have limited generalizability due to the high level of education of the participants."
was appended:
:"A randomized clinical trial of Merzel's Big Mind method demonstrated significant positive results and stated, "That [since] such profound effects can be induced in a short time period implies the potential for enormous benefit for not only the spiritual development of individuals in general but most important for clinical populations where prolonged meditation-based interventions may not be practical. The patient groups most likely to obtain the greatest benefit are those suffering with end-of-life issues where time and energy level are reduced and spiritual insight rather than mere psychological well-being is considered a priority." This study showed statistically significant differences between the treatment and control groups for all parameters measured. However, Johnson notes that the reported effects may also result from factors such as group effect, suggestibility, and/or simple expectation, and that the study may have limited generalizability due to the high level of education of the participants."
The "randomized clinical trial" doesn't meet teh standards of proper scientific analysis. The way this "trial" is quoted here is suggestive and unacceptable. Flash, I suggest you simply stop editing Wikipedia, since your only objective is to promote Merzel and his Big Mind Process. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 12:39, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: Read the article on Big Mind Process, where it is clearly explained what's wrong with this "trial". My suggestion is not a personal attack, it's simply a conclusion based on your edits: you're a WP:SPA, whose contributions don't conform to Wiki-standards.
