I agree strongly, except that you CAN eliminate most if not all pain (all I have tested) by paying attention to the details of the sensation relating to the pain. Don't flinch your attention away, rather, rest attention on the sensation until it wanders away from boredom.
Interesting, I'll give it a try. Worked a bit for some minor pains I tried it on.
Any published research on this? (I hope none of it is dismissed as the placebo effect, given that this method seems to rely on the same mechanism behind the placebo effect.)
