The point is that I can't convince someone who doesn't see violet that there are 7 colors in a rainbow just by telling him there are.

I've experienced some pretty eerie stuff myself but the onus is on me to prove it happened. Fortunately for me there are physical manifestations of the phenomenon but the medical corps either doesn't have the tooling or the research direction to properly study it.

They are just happy giving people some medications. Fortunately for me, I don't need any and can function normally.

That's why appeal to authority is bad (PhDs and MDs are far from knowing much, one should realize, but that goes for your guru, religious figure as well). However I understand what you mean. No one is discarding experience. One might discard the exactitude of the conclusions derived from the experience however. That's the part that needs more proof.
