Dr T P Sasikumar
Born at Naduvil in Kannur
District in Kerala. Had his schooling at Naduvil High School and for a year at
Tagore Vidyaniketan, Thalipparamba. His Pre-Degree education was at Payyanur
College. He studied during his Degree education at Payyanur, Kanjangad, and
Kannur. For M.Sc. (Mathematics) he
joined at Devagiri College and shifted to Cochin University. Had his M.Phil.
and Ph.D. at Bangalore University.
Joined as a Scientist at Advanced
Data Processing Research Institute in the year 1989 and now is heading the Data
Acquisition, Archival and Production Section and is the part of management by
heading and supporting various internal committees. His interest includes HRD,
Training, Knowledge Management apart from Mapping from Space. He is involved in
many activities of the professional bodies like Indian National Cartographic
Association, Indian Society of Remote sensing, and Indian Society of Geomatics.
He also studied Philosophy from
SV University, Law from Osmania University, Management form Indhira Gandhi
national Open University, and Psychotherapy and Counciling from IPMS,
Mumbai. Also is educated in Ayurveda,
Herbo Mineral and Homeopathy medical practices and has his root in an Ayurveda
related family. Learned REIKI, Pranic,
GEM and various other therapy/Healing practices. Learned Astrology and Vasthu
too.
His interest in Health and
Holistic treatment has gained him knowledge in Geobiology and Started
practicing the dowsing for the Hartmann Lines (Geopathic Stress / Irritation
zones) and solving the problems at places of living / working / establishments
/ factories etc. The dowsing was also
being done on the individual AURA (PRANA PANCHA Koshas) to assess the health
and spirituality relation and well being.
The SPIRITUAL AND ESOTERIC ENERGY
DOWSING AND HEALING is a brainchild of Dr. Sasikumar. There is a large demand
for the lectures of Dr. Sasikumar and his service. Basically, he measures for
the spiritual energy of the individuals and their place of living / working
places. The effect of pooja and the benefit of the bakthi is being
demonstrated. Problems of the individuals are being solved on private
consultation on calls.
This book explains the idea,
science, the working of the SEEDLING and the related subject. Many of the
explanations are based on own experiences and more research and study is
required for better evidence and proof. If time permits and the force behind
the energy still stimulates; wait for a more concrete version.

0.1. AURA
Human
physical body is called the Annamaya
kosha, which exists for any living being.
The Pranamaya kosha is the
vital body, which is present as long as the life exists. When one dies the
pranamaya kosha gets detached. The dry leaf does not have the Pranamaya Kosha
so also to the dead trees. All the animates which have the memory and the
conscious mind do have the next settle layer around the body covering the
Pranamaya Kosha called the Manonmaya
Kosha. As one attains higher knowledge; the super conscious mind gets
enlarged and covers the Manonmaya Kosha by the Vijnanamaya Kosha. The outer most cover is the cosmic energy kosha
called the Anandamaya Kosha. These Pancha Kosha forms the energy layer
of living beings called the AURA.
0.2. SPIRITUALITY
Spirituality calms the overactive
mind and increases the mental energy and concentration to focus inwards. As one
become more and more spiritual, the AURA grows, the cosmic energy gets enlarged
and person reaches more close to GOD.
Increasing the spirituality could attain the divine power of realization of
vital life force energy.
0.3. YOGA & MEDITATION
There is no need to talk
connecting Yoga and Meditation in the general sense. But to be specific, this
helps in realizing their goals much faster and better. Consider the Yoga
initialization exercise – Swasa Kriya, the breathing exercise. With the
chanting of AUM (OM) the Swasa Kriya
becomes simple and much more effective.
The Yoga mudra and the positions make the meditation easy and complete. It is easy for a yogi to get into
meditation. Reaching the meditation
keeps the chemical reactions inside the brain and the vibrating frequencies of
the brain to be minimal. Thus the meditations allows keeping the energy at the
highest level and spirituality makes it much simpler to practice compared to
any other practicing methods of focusing inwards to attain calm. This is the reason why ten minutes of
meditation replaces two to three hours of sleep.
0.4. HEALERS
Healing
need to keep the patient fit in the three-fold
- physically, mentally and emotionally. Our traditional way of treatment like
AYURVEDA considers this holistic approach.
The imported methods like Unani, Homeopathy and Allopathy lack the
holistic approach. The latest techniques of the ancient sciences like REIKI,
PRANIC HEALING, KUNDALINI YOGA, COLOR THERAPY, CRYSTAL HEALING, MUSUC THERAPY
and MAGNETO_THERAPY have been able to consider the three-fold health approach.
But it is heartening to note that many healers claim much more than what the
method they follow could claim, also fail to merit the other methods.
0.5. GEO-BIOLOGY
There are earth energies that influence the
living beings. The energies could be
good or bad, generated by the earth by the minerals, stones etc., or could be
generated from the pollution contributed by human. Thus under the ground and in
the atmosphere there are lot of such energies both good (positive) and bad (negative)
that influences the biological inmates. The study of such energy is dealt under
the subject called geo-biology.
0.6. POSITIVE
& NEGATIVE ENERGIES
There are
many animals and plants that attract and enjoy these geo-biological energies.
On one hand some of them are attracted to consume, store and spread the
positive energies and on the other hand there are other sets for the negative.
There are certain plants; not just animals, that like the positive energy and
there is other set which are pro negative. The trees like coconut, pipal,
apple, pear, plum; plants like thulasi, sunflower etc. are positive and cherry,
peach, oak, fir are negative. Similarly the animals like human, dogs, cows,
elephants, horses, chickens gets attracted to the positive energy and at the
contrary the cats, bees, ants, insects, bacteria likes the negative energy.
This is the reason people say that the place where your dog rests is a good
place and on the other hand the cats rest is not good.
0.7. GEOPATHIC
STRESS
The stress
influenced on the living being because of the bad energy at the place of stay
is called the geopathic stress. The above classification of negative and the
positive energies makes it clear that the place where the negative energy
persists is not good for the humans.
Thus there is a need for identification of such negative places and
clear it for making it positively livable.
0.8. HARTMANN
LINES & NODES
Hartmann
was a German dowser who was very successful in identifying the underground
water source. He realized on his dowsing
failures - the existence of negative energies along the straight lines – due to
the presence of some other energy that influences the dowsing. His experiments give rise to the
understanding of the lines formed by the Geopathic Stress called the Hartmann
Lines. It is detected that there are two sets of Hartmann Lines, one in the south-north
and the other in the east-west direction. These lines are the agglomeration of
the negative energies and flows from one side to the other in specific
directions. The crossings of these lines are called the Hartmann Nodes.
0.9. HEALTH,
ILLNESS & BAD OMEN
The
Hartmann lines are the concentrations of the negative energies; they influence
badly on the positive life. One who sits
at the location will feel sluggish. The bad energy being exposed continuously
will case health problems. There are studies to report that the place gives
symptoms like Sleeplessness, insomnia, decrease of appetite, nightmares, mental
depression, increased heartbeat, suffering from ill-defined disease, paralysis,
sharp headache etc. The anxiety of the
business plans and functions with uncertainty slow development, loss of
self-confidence, difficulty in learning is also understood to be influenced by
the earth rays. Children exposed to these energies have been seemed to be under
a stammer effect. As per the reports by
Kathe Bachler, earth ray researcher in Austria; Dr. Arnold Manliker, Dr. Harger
in Germany, Dr. Ernest Hartmann and Melvin Galwin (Novel prize), the cancer is produced under the influence
of geopathic earth ray.
0.10. SCIENTIFIC
EQUIPMENTS & PROOFS
There are scientific
equipments to measure the AURA. Some of them use an instrument in which the
finger needs to be inserted and concentrate and relax in turn for the
measurement to get stabilized. Thus the AURA can be read in numbers. The Kirlian Photography is used to photograph
the AURA of the body to be developed on a special negative film or print paper.
There is no full–proof scientific reasoning on this mechanisms but it is
observed that the AURA exist only for the living being and not for the dead. The green leaf has got AURA and not the dried
ones. Also the person who has problems on health – physically, mentally,
emotionally – can be photographed and the detection of the illness is possible
by interpreting the AURA.
The dowsing
equipments are known for the identification of the existence of water and
minerals in side the earth’s underground.
In detection of the existing pipelines and the cables during survey the
dowsers’ help is sought. The success rates of the dowsers are huge and is in
use may be more than 8000 years. But till today no one knows how dowsing works.
Einstein thought that the answer probably lay in electromagnetism and the
research by many physicists suggests that this may be so.
Russian
Scientific Association has recognized the pair of Hartmann rods as the simplest dowsing equipment. With very little
practice, any individual can easily handle these rods to measure the AURA and
positive and negative energies as one dowse for the underground water and
minerals.
0.11 REALIZATION
OF ENERGIES
It is a
realization for the animals that can detect the presence of the energies. There
are stories on the predictions of one the earthquake in China by watching the
behavior of the animals in that region.
This prediction had saved many lives. There is no scientific method to
predict the earthquake and the studies by the scientists are only on the
measurements and the after effects.
Ancient
practices of deciding the place of living by locating the resting-place of cow
of sheep indicate the faith that the human being had in the VASTU. These
animals have the special capability to detect the positive energy location. The
migrating birds are believed as being navigated by the pattern of the Earth’s
magnetic field. This may be because of an unconscious reaction on the muscles,
which can be realized only when gets sensitized for that.
There are
saints who could predict the energy levels of places and the people. Also there
are healers who either channelize or provide the cosmic energy or the prana for
the needed ones. These healers realize the energy so as the beneficiaries. The
meditation and spiritual practices could increase the power of realization and
the visualization of the positive and the negative energies at places and
living being.
0.12. SPIRITUAL
ENERGIES & CONCENTRATION
The GOD has
infinite AURA and is the source of the cosmic energy. Hindu Veda considers SUN,
AIR, WATER, EARTH, ATMOSPHERE, BRHMANDAM, etc. as the source of energies.
Infinite power exists in these sources and one could consume as much as
required and a healer can transfer this energy to the required beneficiary who
are not able to absorb it directly.
There are
various sources of energies and all may have varied strengths. The energies get
its impressions on all varied forms of Idols,
Pictures and Geometries. Also based on the japas and the MANTHRAS
being chanted around these symbols makes them to light it more powerful to
serve well.
The
specific Geometries and the metal used to draw them determine the power of the
YANTHRAS so created. The yanthras are
also very powerful as the concentrations of the energies. There are specific
geometries being drawn in front of many of the houses called – muggu (Kolam).
The SWASTHIK being drawn on many occasions also serves as the source or transformer
of energy.
Many of the
stones, gems, rings, rudrakshas, rosaries and the various ornaments used
could collect and concentrate the energies.
The enlightenment of the life force energies by the use of these external wearing are immense.
The JAPA and the MUSIC also could create
the positive force. The presence of the
Idols, Pictures, Geometries and the wearing are resources that can attract
these energies and preserves it for the service for longer time. Thus the PRARTHANA and POOJA with Japas exposed to these spiritual symbols become more
powerful and will have more longevity.
Water is
understood to have the maximum capacity to absorb the energies. The ordinary water that one collects from the
tap when analyzed by enlarging 20000 times shows a scattered pattern against
the six-petal shape of the purest water.
The distilled water gets a polygon shape and the clustered water gets
the blurred petal shape. The THEERTHAM that one collects from the
TEMPLE or at your PRARTHANALAYAM after the pooja gets a clear petal shape. This
indicates that the water can be cleansed through Japas of MANTHRAS. This is the
reason that water is used with mantras for many of the SPIRITUAL KARMAS. Consuming the pure water helps the body to be
healthy. The visualization of blood purification can be seen by analysing the
blood before and after consuming the Theertham. Thus the consumption of the
THEERTHAM is very good for the health. It is to be noted that the row
vegetables and fruits are known as sources of vitamins and energies because of
the purest water present in them.
0.13 BAD
FORCES - TRANSFORMERS & CLEANSING
In
practice, cleaning of a place is not possible unless one identifies the place
of dustbin, so is the case with energies. Energy can neither be created nor be
destroyed. The spiritual powers works as the sink of the bad energies and
source of the good energies. They can thus be considered as the transformers.
One could approach the healer to
fill the gap in his AURA and the healer balances and energises it. But if the
place of stay is not a place of positive energy, the treatment is as pouring
water in a leaking vessel. Thus it is
important to place the patient, to that matter all the living being at the
place of positive energy.
The
simplest technique is to keep the place positive is to place Idols or Pictures
of GOD, YANTHRAS and also do POOJA and chant MANTHRAS as much as possible.
The best way to get cleaned, balanced and energised is the SPIRITUAL WAY. In these advanced
mechanized era the people are lacking the opportunities to realize the GOD and
hence have varied ill-defined problems. A well-defined approach in life can be
achieved by leading by positive attitude in the activities.
The bad
energies that are of high intensities and that are powerful and are not able to
be removed by the normal prayers and worships are the one need to attend by the
DOSHAPARIHARAS. The method could be to transfer the DOSHA to a priest (BRAHMIN) who has the power to transfer them into positive. By
giving the DHAKSHINA, this is what
is being assumed to be happening. The
papa is being transferred to the BRAHMIN, which he can neutralize by chanting
the required mantras.
The worst
negative effect could only be removed by the AVAHANA methods. In this process
the bad energies are caught in some specific YANTHRAS and they are generally
immersed in deep-water ponds. Strong mantras could also be used to clear the
bad energy in these AVAHANA YANTHRAS
and can be reused. These processes of UDWAHANA
can be done only by certain category of specialized brahmins.
There are
specific IDOLS OF GODS in Hindu
mythology that is capable of absorbing the evil spirits. In such places the KURUTHI like pujas will be done and the GOD takes the bad effects
on the individuals and the person gets relieved. Most of the GODS in these classes exist as
the sub-deity along with powerful GOD like RUDRA (SHIVA). The reason is that
the person need to get positive energy as he get rid of the bad effects of negative
energy, then only the person can improve in their activities.
0.14 BAD
THOUGHTS
The place
where the bad thoughts get propagated makes the surrounding filled with
negative energies. The place where
un-healthy arguments or scolding takes place, fightings happens; are the places
that produce bad energies. By analyzing
the energy level at a house at various places it is possible to indicate the
level of happiness in the house and also the place of arguments and fighting.
The
fighting could be the character of the individual due to his planetary position in the Jathaka (Horoscope). The place at which one stays could help in aggravating
or pacifying the GRAHACHARAS. The PARIHARAM
being prescribed by the astrologer for these happening helps the individual in
creating the positive energy. It is the responsibility of the individuals to
continue the prayers and sustain the energy level.
If one
could not catch the rail and the POOJA-KARMAS are not generating the positive
effect or he remains in the negative area, the effect will be the bad thoughts.
Because of the bad thoughts the area become more and more bad and the people
staying in such places will be suffering. One could see fighting, arguments and
diseases in such places.
0.15 VASTHU
IN ENERGY CONCEPT
The place
of living needs to be clean to be healthy.
Compounded effects of many of the factors need to be considered to
conclude the status of the place of living. These may be like the direction of
the wind, location of rooms, place of entrants, existence of the neighboring
establishments and facilities, external thoughts that influences the place,
internally created bad thoughts etc. There are ways and means of handling each
of these in various methods and most of them work in tandem while deciding the
effect of VASTHU. The cumulative effect
of all these varied components can be quantified and shown in terms of goodness
(positive) or badness (negative) in the energy concept.
The Hartmann Lines inside the house
determines the health, divinity and the good and bad locations in the house. It
is easy to feel the energy differences in the house for a geopathic energy
practitioner (Geobiologist). The
Hartmann Rods can be used to detect and demonstrate the presence of the energy
lines and nodes. Also the clearing
processes by simple techniques that can be felt instantly by the inmates
provides the opportunity to demonstrate energy concept. The virtue and grace of
GOD can be realized even in this day of complex life styles to underline the
ancient Indian Traditions in Veda.
0.16 GOD
REALIZATION
The way to
improve the activity is the realization of GOD, absorbs the infinite source of
energy. Do PRAYERS, POOJAS, and JAPAS,
etc. to have immense power to visualize the self and clean the thought
processes. Also it helps in cleaning the DOSHAS and attaining the positive
energy. The wearing of the GEMS, STONES,
RUDRAKSHAS, MALAS, ROSARIES helps in concentrating the positive energy effect
on the person wearing them. The YANTHRAS
helps in cleaning the area by closing the passages of the bad energies. All these
are the methods and steps that take us and show the presence of GOD.
MEDITATING
on GOD is another (and the best) way to feel the presence of the GOD. The opening of the SAHASRACHAKRAS and the
realization of the EXTREAM POWER give the happiness. The practice of such visualization of GOD
gives more and more PRANA and the AURA to give health and spirituality to the
practitioner.
0.17 UNIFICATION
The situation of GOD REALIZATION
takes one into a stage where the individual will not distinguish the healing
method as YOGA, REIKI, PRANIC, COLOR,
MUSIC, VEDIC etc. The energy is the positive energy that needs to be given
to treat a patient and there may be requirements of removal of negative
energy. The treatment that the physical
body requires for its ailments cannot be replaced by these methods. Thus the treatment under Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Unani, Herbal, Mineral, Allopathy need to be
continued. The place of stay of the
patient needs to be cleared and his spirituality needs to be improved. The
placement of Idols, Pictures, Chakras,
Yanthras helps in this process. Only such unified treatment could help the
progress of healing. To keep good health
and sustain energy, staying in an area of positive energy is essential. Thus
the concept of UNIFIED VASTHU is
built-in in the treatment of life
problems without getting into the complexes and details. The idea is to
find the health in the environment and mind that will influence the tree-fold
fitness (physical, mental and emotional).
Apart from these general treatment
there could be specific cases were one need to study the Jathaka (HOROSCOPE).
Because of the specific planetary position in the Jathaka, there could be
problems that are beyond the general prescriptions. To reduce such JATHAKA DOSHA and the DASA SANDHI it is
essential to have the study of the horoscope and prescribe specific GEMS, POOJAS, KARMAS and JAPAS.
Thus the
prescription for treatment and well-being need to be a unified one considering
the overall aspects of the place of planets at the time of birth, the place of
living and the spirituality that determines the CHAITHANIYA of the life. One
needs to get into good practices to
attain the better living and the MOKSHA
as the end goal.
0.18 SPIRITUAL
DOWSING
The
spiritual dowsing is the visualization of the
·
Power of the life force energy
·
Earth generated positive and negative energies
·
Effect of meditation / being spiritual
·
Negative places in your place of stay
·
Cleaning process through
japa, meditation, dyana, prayers
etc.
keeping the idols, pictures etc.
transferring the cosmic energy etc.
placing the stones, plants etc.
mantras, yanthras, gems, stones etc.
homams, poojas, avahanas, etc.
The
SPIRITUAL DOWSING RODS are used to illustrate these. It is possible to go deviceless with continuous
practice of meditation and improved consciousness sensitized to measure
energies. The tools themselves provide an element of safety for the beginner
and create confidence to the beneficiaries. The dowsing tool can be used to
create faith in GOD by taking the individual to the spiritual world through the
physical experiences. For each of the questions in the spiritual world, one
could come back to the physical world and ask the same question to see or feel
the response of the dowsing tool (the SPIRITUAL DOWSING ROD).
A..
Concept of Energy
A.0. Introduction
The whole world is full of energy. Good, Bad,
Natural, Created, Converted and many more. But in this state of difficulty all
forgets the address of the source and hunt for the energy elsewhere. The needed
will be able to tap the energy only if one knows where it exists. The energy
that we describe is like the electromagnetic or the sound and other visual wave
that exist everywhere and it comes on your TV / radio set only when you tune
for the same in the specific frequencies. We do not realize the existence of it
as we don not see, hear, smell, taste nor feel them with our PANJEDRIYAS. With
the SIXTH sense one will be able to feel the energy.
I remumber the story from my brother. The boy who
see a pebble on the road side will start kicking at it until it breaks or
getting out of his view or interest. On the other hand a geologist may start
worrying about the age, contents, strength etc. etc. of the stone. The moral is
that one who knows the value only understand or try to analyse. For the boy who does not understand the merit
of it may see it only as a playing item and may be able to derive joy out of
it. There may be many who just stamp on it and pass by, but do not care or look
at it at all. As this story says the merit exist but the boy is not aware of
it.
Our body do have an energy field around it; call it
PRANA, Bio-Energy, Chith, Chaythanyam, Prabha, Life or what ever you need. Such
is the case with every living being. Also the non-living too have an energy level.
For instance we are dealing with the energy in the living being which is termed
as bio-energy.
A.1. Bio-energy
Everything in the universe consists of energy.
Everything is interconnected. All our thoughts and mental states are energy. As
parts of a cosmic organism, we are energy beings. The most amazing fact is that
we have electromagnetic fields around us. These energy fields are nonmaterial,
and they are associated with human emotions or thoughts as forms of energy. Any
live organism has a special structure - a bio-energy field.
The bio-energy field of a human consists of subtle
bodies with their energetic potentials, and which give strength and power to
the biological field. Energetic potential depends on the conditions of physical
and psychic health, and, perhaps, astrological factors. For example,
experienced psychics can feel human energy fields with their hands without
touching a body, and, sometimes, even see a glowing aura around individuals.
Many views and hypotheses about bio-energy exist
nowadays, and some many researchers call it psi-energy. Special experiments in
the laboratories enabled researchers to discover waves of energy emitted by
humans. With mental activities the waves changed with speed of thought: the
thought was followed by energy. Electric charges in the human's head change on
different levels of consciousness. The electric field of a human is the unity
of positive (+) and negative (-) electric zones.
In order to be healthy, the energetic balance must
be maintained in the bio-energy system. Energetic balance and constant freely
flowing of energy are important factors in health and well-being.
Bio-energy can be explained as bio-electromagnetic
energy. One can hear about terms of positive and negative energy in bio-energy
healing. The term of bio-positive energy
means pure healing energy coming from God. Positive energy flows freely in
energy systems bringing vitality and health. Whereas definition of bio-negative
energy is trapped, disharmonious, stale, or stagnant energy that blocking
pathways and prevent vital energy from freely flowing in energy systems.
Negative energy brings imbalances into energetic systems, and it is connected
to illnesses and emotional trauma.
Everyone of us possess incredible strength - our
bio-energy. If you employ it consciously, it will give you tremendous power,
and ability to heal yourself and others from physical, spiritual and mental
problems. It is possible to control
energy consciously. To perform
"distant mental healing" and "healing on a photograph” are also
possible.
Everyone possesses a more or less powerful
bio-energy field which interacts with fields of others. It is interesting to
learn about how to manage life situations with your bio-energy. With power of
your own bio-energetic field, and energy in your hands, you can become a
healer. Even if you use this knowledge for yourself and your loved ones, you
will see how your life will be happier, energetic, and fulfilling.
A.2. MOKSHA
I
remumber my neighbour talking about MOKSHA. MOKSHA during the living itself.
The essence is that one could reject and reach to sanyasam after really
dejected himself from all the worldly enjoyment. They are more stable and good
in their activity in contrast to the case of being in sanyasi roopa and longing
for the worldly enjoyments. The people
not having the chance of enjoying the freedom or the facility for the enjoyment
gets into dejection and to save themselves act as they have rejected to attain
sanyasa.
The
moksha can be attained only after renouncing. The concept of renouncing is not
a physical phenomenon. This has to be a mental status. Else the time one is
exposed to the worldly attractions they gets trapped in the attractions and gets
lost in them. The mind need to be in a stage of rejection for not having the
interest in the so called interesting worldly facilities.
I
used to advice the people to have non-vegetarian food if you have a desire and
eat as much and as long as you want. If required to get MOKSHA from it you may
get or not. Do not bother about it. Why this is being said along when
explaining the bad effect of having the ‘dead bodies’ is that better not to
have it when you really do not like to have. Not when your mind cry for it and
the mouth water for the meat and still you call as the one who do not require
non-vegetarian food. This becomes self deceiving which is a papa.
No one is born saints and are attracted to the
worldly beauties, tastes etc. and need to satisfy the requirements. For being a
social being we must be acting against the will and wish of the sub-concious
mind. What is more important is to get into the MOKSHA and not being pushed or
pulled into it. While understanding the energy we must be in MOKSHA stage.
Family Problems –
Relations are Blind
Most
of the family during the early years get into problems. The expectations are
high and the reality is not able to match. I used to joke that having the
mother-in-law in the house is good that as the fighting between the bride and
the mother-in-law keeps the wife busy and a small support from the husband
keeps the wife more attached to him. Lord Krishna was lucky as his two wives
were busy fighting each other and they found no time to fight with the LORD. Also
their complaints used to be a fun for the LORD. The reason may be x, y, z. But
the logical thinking brings out the fact that people are not ready to accept as
the counter part as they are available to them; the demands are too much that
can’t be satisfied.
It
is wondering to note that in many of the cases the wife being rejected and not
cared when they are on their family way or when they have the kid to look
after. The main reason is that the involvement of the father is not being
really felt by the gents as it is felt by the mother. It needs a good mind
setting and preperation. A readiness to
accept the kid as their dearest one need to come from the heart.
Many cases the relations are just acted and the inner
story is being understood only when it is bursted out one troublesome day. It is necessary in any family to show the
love to each other. It need to be shown, but not acted. If we analyse most of
our grand parents, non of them look handsome or beautiful, but we never felt
it, unless you see them as an outsider. The reason is your relation gives the
cult of love between you and you are seeing only as your grandma or grandpa and
not as an individual. Hence the relation supersedes the individuality. But it
should never be demanded. That should just make you blind to accept them.
2.2. GODs Do Had Problems
Most
of the GODs had problems. The BRAHMAs problems wit wife is known. The fate he
had not being worshiped also need no repetition. Shiva do often fights with
Parvathi. Apart from this consider his family that have the Peacock, rat and
snake being pampered by the father and the kids are birth bound enemies. How do
you think Shiva must have struggled to manage his house. Think of the family of
Krishna. His two wives always fights. The brother was a fulltime drunkard.
During the mediation with Kawravas and Pandavas he could not succeed. Later he
advised them to fight. He was not impartial but given the cult of an impartial.
One is great when his people around him gets the benefit from the individual.
Think of Krishna, his closest are the Pandavas and they had always troubles.
Krishna could have created another land and a world and given to them as
another land was given by Shiva to Ravana, as Srilanka. Thus he was not useful
to the closest people around him also. He couldnot save himself from the arrow
of a common person. How do you think he can save the world.
Another
example I used to quote is thatof Ganesa. He is one whose physical structure is
such you can’t even imagine he walking. But when one need to ru, jump, or do
any circus prays him to get the starting push. Is this not a symbolism, to say
that think of somebody who is weaker tghan you and get the courage. To say, even Sukumaran can jump, then why not
I and you? This does corrage to anyone.
Many
such contradictions against the GODLY powers and charisma of the GODs can be
put forth. But what is the lesson? The lesson is that the GOD represents all
the problems and indicates he and his incarnations are for understanding the
problems and one cannot solve until the indvidual undergoes the troubles.
2.3. Pray for the Courage to Face Problems
Most
of us have faith in GOD but more is the fear. It is difficult to find out who
has the real faith. In these days many are taking advantages in the name of
GOD. The KALI – the tenth incarnation of VISHNU has entered in every one of us.
The act of KALI is what is showing all the trouble around us.
The BHAKTHI is something that cannot be weighed.
BHAKTI is too private. But there are many does it too publica and when we
compare with them we get biveldered. In
PURANAS too there are many mention about the BHAKTI of characters. In the
BHAGAVATHAM mainly many characters got entered only due to their BHAKTHI. The
incarnation of the GOD itself has been to protect the real BHAKTHAS. Thus we
could see many starting from the PRAHALADA, MAHABALI as examples.
When
GOD takes the incarnation and live like a king or a human being and lives in
this world with all the problems and pleasures. Their supernatural powers are
not shown to tackle their problems . The problems are faced with all bravery
and shows to all the BHAKTHAS how to face the problems. Thus each of the
problems and the solutions that GOD identifies are considered to be examples
for us learn. ARJUNA in the MAHABHARATHA war expresses his problems and the
lessons of LORD KRISHNA could not get into ARJUNA. Declaring that nothing could
get into his brain or mind, ARJUNA expresses total helplessness. KRISHNA asks
him for the total surrender and he will take care. This lesson explains that
for LORD to act in you need to be totally surrendered.
2.4. Give Time to GOD to Decide What is good for
you
Any
one in problem is and will be in hurry to solve it. Understand that many of the
problems are lessons in ones life. One need to experience it. The trouble of a mount climbing experienced
by the individual is not horrible but is thrilling as long as he is involved in
that. An outsider feels it as a mear waste of energy and may comment on the
un-necessary trouble he is undergoing. Strive on to reaching the top is the
only aim that the climber keeps. Learn from him.
I
always like to watch a squirrel jumping from one plantain leaf to another.
Notice the way the leaf swings with the weight of the squirrel and the
balancing of it to find the optimal time to jump to the next leaf. My heart
used to beat while watching it, fearing the fall. This fear is that build
tension in human in their individual, family and social problems. The courage
that this small animal have is not there with the human. Always scared. We are
not in a position to use our ability and power.
The advance withdrawal and avoiding the instances itself
gives us less of experiences and keeps us alone. People feel attachment may
demand more from us and they keep alone. Scared of being satisfied and making
others satisfied. Consider the positive attitude is that GOD want us to take
up. The power to solve the problems thitherto will be also be given by the GOD.
Only we have to give the time for the GOD to act. Many people I have seen are
hurry in settling the issues and processes. I used to ask them to give some
time to the GOD to decide and you or any healer shouldn’t be in a hurry to
solve your problems. Also it is always said that a healer should standby when the
nature does its duty.
2.5. Karma
I consider the life as a drama. You have no option on the
script, the direction, the dialogue, the actions of other characters, the
feelings, etc. The actions and reactions are at your disposal, within the scope
of the drama. You act well and perform the job well. Let other characters
appreciate the acting, you are probably assured with a better role tomarrow. I
just do not want to take the role of a master, nor I am qualified to do so.
2.6. Bhakti
The term Bhakti comes from the root 'Bhaj', which means
'to be attached to God'. Bhajan, worship, Bhakti, Anurag, Prem, Priti are
synonymous terms. Bhakti is love for love's sake. The devotee wants God and God
alone. There is no selfish expectation here. There is no fear also. Therefore
it is called 'Parama Prem Rupa'. The devotee feels, believes, conceives and
imagines that his Ishtam (tutelary deity) is an Ocean of Love or Prem.
Bhakti is the slender thread of Prem or love that binds
the heart of a devotee with the lotus feet of the Lord. Bhakti is intense
devotion and supreme attachment to God. Bhakti is supreme love for God. It is
the spontaneous out-pouring of Prem towards the Beloved. It is pure, unselfish,
divine love or Suddha Prem. There is not a bit of bargaining or expectation of
anything here. This higher feeling is indescribable in words. It has to be
sincerely experienced by the devotee. Bhakti is a sacred, higher emotion with
sublime sentiments that unites the devotees with the Lord.
Mark how love develops. First arises faith. Then follows
attraction and after that adoration. Adoration leads to suppression of mundane
desires. The result is single-mindedness and satisfaction. Then grow attachment
and supreme love towards God.
In this type of highest Bhakti all attraction and
attachment which one has for objects of enjoyment are transferred to the only
dearest object, viz., God. This leads the devotee to an eternal union with his
Beloved and culminates in oneness.
Bhakti is of various kinds. One classification is Sakamya
and Nishkamya Bhakti. Sakamya Bhakti is devotion with desire for material
gains. A man wants wealth with this motive practices Bhakti. Another man wants
freedom from diseases and therefore does Japa and offers prayers. A third one
wants to become a Minister and does Upasana with this aim. This is Sakamya
Bhakti. Whatever you want the Lord will certainly give you, if your Bhakti is
intense and if your prayers are sincerely offered from the bottom of your
heart. But you will not get supreme satisfaction, immortality and Moksha
through Sakamya Bhakti.
Your Bhakti should always be Nishkamya Bhakti. God has
already given you a good position, a good job, wife and children and enough
wealth. Be contented with these. Aspire for Nishkamya Bhakti. Your heart will
be purified and the Divine Grace will descend upon you. Be in communion with
the Lord, you will become one with the Lord and you will enjoy all the Divine
Aisvaryas (Divine attributes like wisdom, renunciation, power, etc.). All the
Vibhutis (Special forms in which the Lord manifests) of the Lord He will give
you. He will give you Darsan. He will help you to dwell in Him. At the same
time He will give you all the Divine Aisvaryas also.
Another classification of Bhakti is Apara-Bhakti and
Para-Bhakti. Apara-Bhakti is for beginners in Yoga. The beginner decorates an
image with flowers and garlands, rings the bell, offers Naivedya
(food-offerings), wave lights; he observes rituals and ceremonies. The Bhakta
here regards the Lord as a Supreme Person, who is immanent in that image and
who can be propitiated through that form only.
He has no expanded heart. He is a sectarian. He dislikes
other kinds of Bhaktas who worship other Devatas. Gradually, from Apara-Bhakti,
the devotee goes to Para-Bhakti, the highest form of Bhakti. He sees the Lord
and Lord alone everywhere and feels His Power manifest as the entire universe.
"Thou art all-pervading; on what Simhasana shall I seat Thee ? Thou art
the Supreme Light, in whose borrowed light the sun, the moon, the stars and the
fire shine; shall I wave this little Deepa or light before You ?" - thus
the devotee recognizes the transcendental nature of God. Para-Bhakti and Jnana
are one. But every Bhakta will have to start from Apara-Bhakti. Before you take
your food, offer it to God mentally; and the food will be purified. When you
pass through a garden of flowers, mentally offer all the flowers to the Lord in
Archana (offering flowers in worship). When you pass through the bazaar and see
a sweetmeat shop, offer all the sweetmeats as Naivedya to the Lord. Such
practices will lead to Para-Bhakti.
Bhakti is also classified into Gauna-Bhakti and
Mukhya-Bhakti. Gauna-Bhakti is the lower Bhakti and Mukhya-Bhakti is the higher
type of Bhakti.
Go from stage to stage. Just as a flower grows in the
garden, so also gradually develop love or Prem in the garden of your heart.
The enemy of devotion is egoism and desire. Where there is
no Kama or desire, there alone will Rama (the Lord) manifest Himself. The
enemies of peace and devotion are lust, anger and greed. Anger destroys your
peace and your health also. When a man abuses you, keep peaceful. When blood
begins to boil, it is impoverished. You lose vitality if you become a prey to
fits of temper.
A.3. Spirituality
The
physical structure (BODY) and the environment in which one lives is the same.
This means that the within and the out side is the same for many of us. Their
body and the food, brain and the education, mind and the logic, BHAKTI and the
spiritual level may also be the same. The GOD – may be Allah, Iswar, Lord,
Dieu, Gott, Jehovah, or any other – is the same and he does not distinguish the
one from other. In spite of these many of us have problems and we start asking
“ Why this for me ? Why should I live with these problems and sufferings ?”
May
be the answer to this is not available as the knowledge what we have is limited
and is difficult to understand the problem of others totally by anybody other
than himself. This doesn’t mean that there is no solution. The answer to your
questions is to be asked to the Spiritual Masters. May be in a sense what I am
trying is to answer the query in some sense, if not directly. This attempt will
help in finding some answer within each one of you.
I
am able to see the energy in the spirituality in accordance with the life force
energy. The benefit has been seen working and many got benefited. Thus it is
the belief and the feeling that has to play higher role than the brain and the
mind to realize the energy of spirituality. After all we understand many things
by our heart than our brain. Do not logically weigh them to understand what is
got into brain and what is in heart. Then spirituality will have no place in
you. Otherwise heart will direct the brain.
The bottom line for many concerning
their Health and Well being in their present existence is much affected by
Doctors. Doctors are trained as mechanics that work on the physical mechanism.
They are in the Business of Treatment; they are not trained in the "Art of
Healing". Most do not even understand the most rudimentary concepts of
Healing. Most do not realize how they can produce damage and even induce death
sentences on their patients. There is
little difference in the effects produced by an intentional damaging curse or a
prayer prayed improperly, bad advice or simply some random negative
thought.
Healers are the gap filling agents
to cure in holistic way. Many healers generally have little concept about True
Spirituality or how the universe really operates. As a consequence they convey
misinformation, half-truths, superstitions and fears along with a multitude of
associated damaging information into a person's consciousness. The result of
which is Confusion and Paradox. The suggestion regarding a strictly religious
approach would be to make a serious effort to study each and every one of them
thoroughly and in depth. The result will be absolutely amazing when one
discovers each and everyone of them are all talking about the Same Thing, only
from their own unique perspective. Real enlightenment develops as the
understanding for each reveals they are only methods and techniques.
3.1. "Spiritual
Physics"
Physics in the past hit a stone
wall until someone dared to suspect there must be rules and laws that existed
they new nothing about "Spiritual Physics" is a term coined in '96 by
Jim Harmon as a descriptive term as it applies to the body of technical
understanding regarding spiritual healing.
IBM’s' scientists recently achieved
the amazing feat of relocating a particle of energy a small distance; maybe
they should have called a metaphysician. Time, space and consciousness travel
has been around forever, history being filled with examples. Progress in the
field of physics as it applies to the spiritual has been neglected for two
reasons, fear and money. Some of the scientists I've talked too who are
spiritually aligned speak of how it all works as very matter of fact; others
who are not are scared to even discuss it.
One unique phenomenon recently observed
by scientists indicated energy behaved differently for different observers. The
revealing truth in this discovery is that we influence our energetic being and
that of others and other things. The puzzling thing about our energetic being
as much as it behaves electrically, magnetically and clearly demonstrates
electro-magnetic characteristics it has defied attempts to measure this
activity even with the most sophisticated equipment.
Almost all
sensient people can "feel" this "energy"; a large percentage
of them can clearly "see" it also. There is a definite
Super-conductive element present regarding the flow of this spiritual energy
aspect. People and objects energetic fields can become extremely elevated by
anothers' influences. If a sensient person scans another or any object to
establish a base-line reference of its' energetic field strength and the person
or object is "enhanced" a dramatic elevation of activity is readily
apparent. The only reliable direct means of measuring these effects is the biological
interfacing with sensitive EEG equipment; with some of the better aura
photography equipment renounced effects have also been observed.
The main
conclusion one could theorize: all things exist with characteristics operating
on many dimensional levels we are not fully aware of or understand. Be assured
at some point in the near future all the mystery will disappear and the
attitude will be, of course it works that way.
One law of Spiritual Physics is
everything is subject to how you feel about it.
B- PRANA
B.0. Introduction
The various
forms of energy ... chi, chakras, siddhas, subtle body forms, auras ... are
dealing with the same life force energy / PRANA.
The physical
form body that we function through in the physical world is only one of many
bodies we utilize - often without knowing that we are using them. They are
bridge bodies that connect us with the absolute. They are the connectors
between the micro and the macro cosmic forces. It is through the abilities
inherent in these supplemental bodies that we can stretch our ordinary knowing
beyond its physical confines. Think of envelopes or cosmic folds surrounding
the physical body. These other bodies are called sheaths or kosas and create
layers of decreasing density until there is no density left and we are in
union.
Mystics and
psychics are frequently aware of these subtle body layers and the chakras. They
are most often visible as what we know as auras.
B.1 The PRANA
1.1. BODY & MIND – BETTER PRACTICES
Prana is the
energy in all living being for its functioning.
The content and the quantum of the energy determine the life force and
the health. They are mainly of five types and have specific kinds and nature of
duties. Through the breath called PRANA a living creature is enabled to move.
Through that called VYANA, they put forth strength of action. That called APANA moves downwards. That
called SAMANA resides within the heart. Through that called UDANA one eructates
and is enabled to speak in consequence of its piercing through the lungs, the
throat and the mouth.
The look and
feel and also the well being of the physical body is being taken care by many
as the general public are much concerned about it. Are you really thankful to your body? How
many of us have considered the importance of each of our body-parts and felt
thankful to them for all the services being given by them to you. Also see them
as individuals with identity and given their due credits.
The PRANA body
also is felt to certain stage and one cares it for the cleaning. Considers the
cleanliness and also tries to avoid the proximity of polluted air. Thus the vital body and the energy is felt
and hence it is taken care of. It is
required to get the full benefit of PRANA by filling the purest air and suck
the full energy for the benefit. How many enjoy the breath. How many get to
know the breath. For good PRANA there
has to be ten minutes of known breath.
The memory and
the conscious body that feeds the superconcious mind to decide the mental,
intellectual and spiritual levels are not really under the custody of many
individuals. The way to reach to this is practice MEDITATION.
To enlarge the cosmic body that
shells the VIGNANAMAYA KOSA is to be spiritual.
The spirituality increases the positiveness of the individual and takes
towards the GOD to keep the person much happier and protected.
B.2. THE HUMAN AURA
Our
bodies emanate radiations in a pulsating pattern that surround the physical
entity like a glowing capsule. This is known as the aura. Generally invisible
to normal sight, these radiations can be seen by certain
"sensitives," and have indeed been photographed! The aura serves as a
mirror of physical health, and
therefore, all auras - like all people
- differ. This differential is in color, not shape, and researchers believe
that varying auric colors reflect specific characteristics of the people they
surround.
Sitting in Bjorn Jensen's lounge is like
sinking into the peaceful ambience of a log cabin which has no electricity
connected. "The problem with damaging energy fields is that they can't
always be measured by our current recognized instruments", says Jensen. In
connection with, for example, electromagnetic fields, one can find elements of
radiation and energies which our science can still not understand because it
can not be measured. It is these unknown elements, which are most damaging to
life's energy itself, which the
scientists can't even measure. Life energy can be proven with Kirlian
photography and Aura cameras, even though the existing technique at the moment
is quite primitive. Often we find thetic radiation, but we can filter away the
unknown damaging elements.
Chairman (Chris Bird): In his
workshop, Dr. Dubrov showed me a picture of this very complicated device made
in Orenburg by Kravchenko, and diagnostics of what used to be called the
human and which the Russians call the
human bioelectronic field. He showed diagnosis of several layers of the aura by
this device, and diagnostics of health and disease all being done by a machine
constructed by a man far away in the mountains in the forests in Orenburg. I
have heard these stories in the past, over fifteen vears. I am suggesting that
all of us - Americans and British - put up £5 or £10 each, and bring Mr.
Kravchenko and his machine over here to Bangor University, where there are some
very interesting scientific folks, or maybe Oxford, who could be present.
2.1. Things that will weaken the aura are
1.
Not eating a well-balanced diet.
2.
Lack of or no exercise in the daily routine above and beyond the daily regiment
of activities.
3.
Not enough rest and/or sleep.
4.
Stress is a definite factor that can be alleviated through use of meditation,
exercise, or leisure activities.
5.
The use of drugs and/or alcohol. (This includes prescription medications.)
6. The use of tobacco or anything else in excess.
6. The use of tobacco or anything else in excess.
7.
Not enough fresh air.
8.
Participation in negative psychic activities that upset or stress the inner
person.
To enhance your ability to see auras,
you must remember these things
1. Everyone's aura is unique.
1. Everyone's aura is unique.
2.
The aura of one person will interact with the energies of others, as well as
those of other animals and plants.
3.
When a person's aura changes, this is a sign of changes within that person's
self. It can be physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, or even
psychological.
4.
The longer a person is around another person, the more their auric fields will
exchange energy.
Everyone has an
aura, but do you know what color your aura is? First of all, the aura is the
energy field surrounding your body. This energy field is made up of a variety
of colors like red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, turquoise, and
pink. The intensity can vary. It displays the condition of your psychological
and physical condition by way of your thoughts and emotions on a conscious and
unconscious level.
We see colors through light rays, which determines
the power and frequency of the color. Each part of our body is connected to
these energy fields by way of our chakras. All of our body functions and organs
are energized via our coordinating chakras. We take in this energy and light daily.
The more balanced our chakra energy is, the more balanced our overall aura
energy is.
Eastern philosophy believes that the body’s cells
are energized and programmed by our thoughts, experiences, and emotions. They
are held within our organs and glands. This is very similar to what Gregg
Braden discusses in his conferences. How a cell in our body looks when we are
filled with anger and rage. It is not defined with clarity of shape and beauty
but takes on an ugly essence. When we are filled with love, joy, and harmony
the cell takes on clearer and more defined shape. It becomes beautiful to look
at. The same is true with a water droplet depending upon where it comes from.
If it comes from a dirty body of water, it looks unshapely and not geometric.
Everything actual has an aura because everything is
created from some sort of energy. I have always been able to see auras, but it
started out with being able to see an aura around a plant, then animals, and
then finally people. The vibrant colors came later. I could see the basic
energy field, and the color was always yellowish or white. Eventually, I began
to look for auras purposely especially on people. Sometimes, this gave me a
pretty good idea of what their energy was like. Sometimes, I didn’t like what I
was seeing, and it made me cautious of that person.
Everyone can learn to see auras. It just takes some
practice. If you are interested in learning more about auras, I recommend
reading the following book. Please refer to the book list for additional reading.
B.3. The Subtle Energy Bodies
As a rule, there are said to be four subtle energy
bodies (layers of the aura), each having its own fundamental vibrational
frequency. The ethereal body, closest to the physical body, vibrates at
the lowest frequency. The astral or emotional body and the mental body
operate at higher frequencies. The spiritual body has the highest
frequency of all.
It is said that the ethereal body is formed anew
with each life reincarnation and dissolves within 3-5 days after physical death.
The astral, mental, and spiritual bodies continue to exist after death and
reunite with the newly formed physical and ethereal bodies in every
reincarnation. This represents karma, the energies of one life affecting
all subsequent lives.
3.1. The Ethereal Body
The first layer of the aura is the ethereal
body. It resembles the physical body in shape and dimension and its
energy exudes about 2 inches outward from the physical body. The
ethereal body shapes the physical body and the vital creative energies of life,
as well as all physical sensations.
The ethereal body draws vital energies from the sun
and from the earth via the solar plexus chakra and the root chakra,
feeding them to the physical body in continuous streams via the chakras and
nadis. These rays of energy envelop the physical body like a protective
layer, preventing disease-causing germs and harmful materials from
entering.
This natural protection means basically that a
person cannot fall ill from external forces. The cause of all sickness
lies within. Negativity, stress, unhealthy lifestyles all use up the
ethereal life force, lessening its strength and intensity, allowing for
"holes" and weakened areas. These weak areas either allow
foreign matter such as bacteria into the physical plane, or they allow vital
energy to leak out, further weakening the system.
The ethereal body also acts as a mediator between
the physical body and the higher energy bodies. If the ethereal energies
are distorted, so then are the energy pathways to and from the higher layers of
the aura.
To repair and enhance the ethereal body, we must
first support the physical body with proper nutrition, regular exercise, and
adequate rest and relaxation. We must then reconnect with the energies of
Mother Earth. Surround yourself with soil and green plants. Accept
the warmth of the sun for about 20 minutes every day. Take regular
excursions into wild areas and just listen and breath in the beauty and
serenity. Stay rooted in the earth while soaring through the universe.
3.2. The Astral Body
Also known as the emotional body, the astral body
is the carrier of our feelings, emotions, and character traits. It is
oval in shape and may exude outward for several yards in highly developed
beings, and is barely discernible in undeveloped beings.
Every change in emotion is radiated out into the
aura by the astral body, creating colorful waves of energy in constant
motion. Emotions such as fear, anger, depression, or worry cause dark
cloudy areas in the astral body and these energies are passed unconsciously to
the external world. When one opens up the consciousness to love,
devotion, and joy the astral body glows with brilliant transparent color.
The astral body shapes our view of the world more
powerfully than any of the other subtle bodies. It stores all our
unresolved emotions, conscious and unconscious fears and aggressions,
loneliness, rejection, and lack of self-confidence. When these emotional
vibrations are transmitted outwardly they attract like vibrations. This
is why we seem to always be confronted with the very people or situations that
mirror our own troubles.
Conscious thought and the intellectual goals of the
mental body have little influence on the astral body, which follows its own
laws. The mental body can direct external behavior but it cannot override
subconscious patterns. Thus a person can consciously strive for love and
success, yet continue to radiate contradictory frequencies, preventing
attainment of those goals.
If the astral body survives physical death and
joins the new physical body in the next reincarnation, unresolved emotional
problems from one life will to a large extent determine the conditions of the
new life. Once we understand these matters, we have no choice but to stop
seeing ourselves as "victims" and start taking responsibility for our
own weaknesses and misery.
Releasing trapped emotions from the astral body is
not always an easy course but it is always enlightening. We nourish and
refresh the astral body by re-connecting with our inner self via the heart
chakra, and with the higher self via the crown chakra. Through
counseling, meditation, hypnosis, energy work, etc., we can recognize the past
emotions behind our behaviors and thus are allowed the freedom to recreate
patterns of wisdom, love and bliss within our astral plane.
3.3. The Mental Body
Our thoughts, ideas, rational and intuitive
perceptions are all borne by the mental body. It, too, is oval in shape
with its depth and radiation relative to development. In highly advanced
persons it may extend many yards beyond the astral body.
The mental body operates on both higher and lower
frequencies. The lower frequencies are expressed in the linear thinking
of the rational mind. Many people seek truth from this linear mode with perceptions
based at the physical level. This is the current world scientific
method. But information received from the physical senses is transmitted
to the mental body via the astral body, with all those emotions, where it
easily becomes distorted and biased.
The higher function of the mental body is to absorb
universal truths via the spiritual body and integrate them with the rational
mind. This in turn filters downward through the astral and physical
bodies, creating patterns in harmony with universal law.
The higher frequencies of the mental body can be
reached via a connection with the inner eye chakra and the crown chakra.
When energies are unblocked and nourished at these levels, our intuition and
insight allow us to view truth from a holographic perspective instead of a
linear one.
3.4. The Spiritual Body
Often referred to as the causative body, the
spiritual body has the highest frequencies of all the energy bodies. In
undeveloped persons it may only extend about a yard beyond the mental body and
remain oval in shape. In an truly enlightened master it may be felt for
up to a mile away and at these higher levels becomes circular as it extends
outward.
The spiritual plane radiates with gentle but purely
brilliant colors. In a master's presence one may experience a sense of
fulfillment with abundance, light and love. As the spiritual aura
streams outward into the universe, it streams also downward through the mental,
astral, ethereal and physical bodies, enhancing and harmonizing their own
frequency patterns.
Through the spiritual body we experience oneness
with the Divine Source and inner connection with all that exists in
Creation. We recognize the source and goal of our being and the purpose
of our lives. In all our actions we express our higher selves, and in so
doing share the knowing and the all-encompassing universal love.
B.4. Chakras
Humans
are children of the cosmos. All our organs correspond to energies fluctuating
in the cosmos. According ancient teachings subtle worlds of the cosmos create
our individual bodies. Like the Universe, our energetic system consists of seven
worlds, and has seven primary bodies (or auric layers) that interact with each
other. These bodies consist of the energy of the corresponding universal worlds
accordingly, deal with them, and receive the energetic information from them.
Besides
the physical bodies, our individual energy system consist of ether, astral,
mental, karmic, intuitive, nirvana, and absolute subtle energetic bodies,
which form our aura - human energy field or bio-energy system. We call
energetic bodies subtle because it is difficult to perceive them with our
senses. Nevertheless, we can perceive them when specially trained and used
bio-energy methods and techniques.
All
subtle bodies in a human energy system communicate with each other, and with
the physical body, through the energetic "transformers"- chakras.
Chakras transform cosmic universal life-support energies into human energy
systems. In Sanskrit, the chakra is a wheel of life. Indian tradition considers
invisible chakras as centers of consciousness. All humans have chakras whether
we aware of them or not. Chakras are, in fact, centers of different levels of
consciousness, ranging from almost bodily to highly spiritual.
Healthy
chakras spin all the time bringing energy to the physical body and all its
energy layers. Chakras play a very important role in well-being and health.
Chakras are an important part of bio-energy systems. The locations and
functions of the major chakras are closely related to the endocrine system and
autonomic nervous system. The chakras are located on the spinal column, the
head, and one chakra is located in the heart plexus.
The
first chakra is Muladhara (the root chakra). It is located in the coccyx. The
color is red. This chakra represents the physical body and corresponds to it.
The
second chakra is Svadhisthana (the sacral chakra), and it is located in the
sacrum (lower abdomen). The color is orange. The chakra represents ether
energetic body (energetic matrix of the physical body) and corresponds to it.
The
third chakra, Manipura (the solar plexis chakra), is located on the fifth
lumbar (abdomen) vertebra. The color is yellow. It relates to the astral body.
It depends on emotional condition of the person and can change its form due to
personal conditions.
The
fourth chakra is Anahata (the heart chakra). It is located on the 5th thoracic
vertebra (chest). The color is green. It relates to the mental body (mind,
related to intellect).
The
fifth chakra is Vishuddha (the throat chakra). It is located on the first
thoracic vertebra, on the thyroid level (throat). The color is blue. It
connects to the karmic body (ego).
The
sixth chakra is Ajna (the third eye). It is located on the second cervical
vertebra(the forehead). The color is dark blue. It is connected to the
intuitive body ("superconsciousness", intuition). Ajna chakra is a
center of physical energy.
The
chakra of Nirvana is Central chakra. It is located on the heart plexus. The
color is violet. This is the link between our physical body and Nirvana
("World of Love").
The
seventh chakra is Sahasrara (the Crown Chakra). It is located on the top of the
head. The color is white. It is linked to Absolute body (the conclusion of the
development of all seven bodies of a cosmic organism). Sahasrara chakra is a
center of psychic energy, and the only chakra that follows its subtle body
Absolute in cosmic spheres after death. It is the center of psychic energy of
the human organism. Through Sahasrara chakra, we connect to the "Divine
Center".
Human
bodies of energy are complex structures as compared to the physical body. The
ether body lasts up to two inches over our physical body. During prenatal
development, the solid body of a fetus is constructed according to the matrix
of ether body, and it is its exact duplicate. During its life cycle, ether body
performs a function of a constructor, which builds and restores the solid body.
Healthy ether body differs by an accumulation of energy, which goes through the
solid body and influences its organs positively.
Many
researchers believe that the chakra of the physical plan - Muladhara - and
Svadhisthana belongs to the ether body. Certainly they are similar to each
other by their energetic functions as well. Muladhara plays a connecting role
between the center of the physical energy (Ajna-chakra) and the center of the
psychic energy. Muladhara-chakra absorbs important for physical body
elecromagnetic fields of the Earth. Svadhisthana, which produces internal
energy, feeds by prana or vital energy of the food matter, which it distributes
to the organs of the physical body and other energetic centers along energy
pathways. Interactions of Svadhisthana with other chakras determine the
influence of food intake on energetic manifestations (Manipura-chakra),
sexuality (Muladhara-chakra), and emotional spheres (Anahata-chakra).
The
astral body possesses extraordinary mobility and, depending on emotional state,
can accept different shapes and sizes. Movement in astral bodies in areas of
activity of the gravitational field of the Moon is possible if done under
supervision of experienced professional. The primary chakra of the astral body
is Manipura-chakra. This center accumulates and distributes energies which are
produced in other chakras. Through Manipura, energy and material of the astral
world are united.
The
mental body (mind, intellect) connects to our physical body by meridians
(energy pathways). It is the strongest body among others. If intellect is high
in its development, then the mental body is developed perfectly. We use the
mental bodies in our actions, behaviors, and thoughts.
Karmic
body is a ruler of our ego. All events, their reasons, and all of the
unconscious traits of past lives that determine individual's being and destiny,
are kept in the karmic body (karma). Karmic body rules all functions of a cosmic
organism. It connects to the karmic world by the Vishuddha chakra.
Intuitive
body contacts to the intuitive world by Ajna-chakra (the third eye), which can
be a source of intuitive insight and superconsciousness (unconscious sphere of
consciousness). Intuitive body develops more or less in all people. Many people
have experienced moments when their intuition yelded the most intelligent
decision at unexpected times. Besides controlling vision of the past, the
intuitive body directs the future.
The
chakra of Nirvana body -Central chakra- is a connection between a physical body
and Nirvana body through the heart. A peak of our soul is a body of Nirvana,
which acts as fusion of our ego and the Universe, and union of Truth and Love.
And
the last body - Absolute body - is a consequence of the development of all
bodies of a cosmic organism. If a human life is improved due to karma, so the
Sahasrara-chakra regulates human behavior in according to changed expectations
of life.
4.1. Chakras'
Performance
The
human organism, its functioning, and the condition of its subtle bodies depends
on the chakras' work, or spinning. When the chakras are spinning effectively,
they bring balanced functioning to the organism, a free-flowing of energies,
and harmony between consciousness and subconsciousness and between inner and
outer worlds as well.
Chakras
show patterns of electromagnetic activity. When all chakras work properly
(spinning not too slow or too fast), a physical organism is in perfect health
and powerful energetic shape. When the chakra is opened and functional, it can
perform its work perfectly, process prana energy, bring energy to the physical
organs and subtle bodies, and remove used stale or stagnant energy from the
system.
When
the chakra is closed or blocked, it stops spinning and becomes dysfunctional.
Chakras may become closed when they are congested with stale or stagnant
energy. One way they can close is during an instance of fight-or-flight
response of the organism. This response is a natural way for the organism to
become alert and prepared to any danger or unusual situation. However, if this
stressful condition of the body is left uncontrolled and continues for a long
time, the chakras may stay closed and dysfunctional. When the physical body
stays in prolonged stress (distress) or depression, the chakras cannot spin and
work properly; they become unbalanced, blocked with stale and stagnant energy
and unbalanced.
Our
thoughts and attitudes can block energy flowing through the chakras as well.
Unexpressed emotions can cause the chakras to be overcharged, leading to their
closing or blockage. Personality problems both cause and are caused by energy
imbalances. Imbalances in the chakra system of the physical body reveal
themselves through both negative personality and physical illness:
dysfunctional chakras cause imbalances in the subtle energetic bodies, and
imbalances in the subtle bodies then manifest in personal, psychological and
emotional problems.
When
chakras are closed, energy cannot be transformed and released to the physical
body. If energy is not flowing freely through energetic systems, physical
problems may develop in specific areas, and discomfort or illness can occur in
the organism. When a chakra is blocked, it needs healing by uncovering and removing
whatever is blocking it. The clearing of congested energy from the human energy
system becomes a necessary prophylactic way for keeping the organism healthy.
Because
the chakras work together as a system, a block in the functioning of one chakra
may affect the activity of another. These chakras are especially inter-related:
(a) the root chakra and the third eye tie, (b) the sacral chakra and throat
chakra, and (c) the solar plexus chakra and heart chakra. If one chakra is not
functioning, it must be cleansed, balanced, normalized, and healed together
with the associate chakra accordingly.
Chakras
are interrelated not only with parasympathetic and sympathetic autonomous
nervous systems, but endocrine systems as well. Chakras transform vital energy
to the endocrine glands. The root chakra (Muladhara) correlates to the
testicles, the sacral chakra (Svadhisthana) - the ovaries, the solar plexus
chakra (Manipura) - the adrenals and pancreas, the heart chakra (Anahata) - the
thymus, the throat chakra (Vishuddha) - the thyroid and parathyroid, the third
eye chakra (Ajna) - the pineal gland, and the crown chakra (Sahasrara) - the
pituitary (master) gland. Chakras feed the life-force into our endocrine
systems, which regulates our hormonal balance.
During
our many years as healers, we have observed that healthy chakras spin in a
clockwise direction and in the same way in both sexes, whereas closed,
unbalanced chakras spin in a counterclockwise direction, stay still, spin in
eclipses or move unevenly. The energy balance of the bio-energy system, which
is very important to our general well-being and health, can be achieved by
energy that is in a constant smooth flow, refreshed and vitalized, aided by
constantly spinning chakras.
B.5. PANCHAKOSHAS
The first
outward sheath of the subtle body forms is the etheric body. It is called
"Annamaya-kosa". At this level shaman, healers, and other medicine
persons work with earth (Muladhare [base] Chakra), water (Svadhisthana
[genital] Chakra), and fire (Manipura [solar plexus] Chakra).
The second,
emotional body, is the Pranamaya-kosa. It is the sheath of circulatory vital
air and bears the universal life-force Prana. Air and ether elements are most
represented here. As in the Anahata [heart] Chakra and Visuddha [throat]
Chakra.
The third level
is the psychic body. It is the Manomaya-kosa and work most with cognitive
processes. Both the emotional and the mental sheaths support the Ajna [3rd eye]
chakra. It is the location of the psyche. The chakra centers function primarily
at this level and extend through the other layers and the physical body. Our
ego personality is located here. Our aura and auric colors are visible at this
layer and this layer can extend many feet in enlightened individuals. This is
the area where psychics, mystics, and most of us view the auras.
The fourth,
mental level, is the Vijnanamaya-kosa or mind and intelligence sheath and work most with discriminatory processes
thought the Ajna [3rd eye] center. It is through the third eye or our cosmic
consciousness opens. Through the third and fourth sheaths we awaken inner
vision - a knowing of things as they really are.
The fifth,
causal level, is the Anandamaya, the most subtle of all levels. It is here we
have the capacity for the bliss consciousness. This center is most closely
associated with the Sahasrara [crown] Chakra. The causal body level of the
subtle levels is the quintessential consciousness.
The chakras, are
integral to our awakening to our full potential of manifest form supporting
cosmic energies. These centers are most often represented ad vortices of energy
and/or lotuses. With self realization, these centers open and are
activated. Similarly, the yogas are
additional terms one should be aware if persons are interested in expanded
awareness
B.6. Water - food : Energised Water
Highly energized
waters said to help defend the body against disease. Very fresh fruit and vegetable juices also
provide the body with water clusters that have high energy level. This is why I
say that we need to take fruit and vegetable, and an equivalent of Vitamin is
not enough for the health. Water is paramount on Earth, if not in the universe.
We live on a water planet, and our bodies are mostly water. The water molecule
has an angle of 105 degrees, which is in the golden mean proportion.
In the human
body there are two basic types of water (biowater): Bound water and Clustered
Water. Clustered Water is able to move freely through the cell walls and is
necessary to transport nutrients, remove waste, and maintain proper
communication between the cells. Bound water, on the other hand, is water that
becomes physically bound to other molecular structures and is unable to move
freely through the cell walls.
When we are young, our bodies
contain a high level of Clustered Water and very little bound water. However,
as we age, bound water becomes more predominant and clustered water levels
decrease hindering the effectiveness of literally thousands of metabolic
functions and causing significant structural changes in our body’s tissues. No
cells in any body are older than seven years, and then what is the meaning
getting older? It means that your cells, “the building blocks” of brain,
organs, muscle, and every part of your body are getting dried out and clogged
up with toxins and waste debris on a cellular level, because they are not
getting enough pure water. The Clustered water has a star like shape and the
pure water is star shaped.
Dr. Albert Szont-Gyorgyi, who won a Nobel Prize for his
discovery of vitamin C, spent most of his scientific career studying water, He
declared, "Since the molecular structure of water is the essence of all
life, the man who can control that structure in cellular systems will change
the world."
The environment in which we live is filled with pollutants,
from car exhaust to food preservatives. There are always diseased cells being
created in the body. In healthy people, these cells are kept under control by
the body's immune system.
While the scientific understanding of the different
structures and characteristics of water has been around for some time, the
technology for producing clustered waters has been a more recent development.
Part of the recent development has been the ability to create small, highly
energized clusters that can be stored and shipped without deterioration.
Liquid water is also not so simple. Water
found in a river or lake in nature has its outer electrons complete. This is
the key to healthy water, or at least one of the keys; how many electrons the
water has or doesn't have.
At the University of Georgia they found
that in every human body all diseased cells (no matter what the disease) were
surrounded by what is called "unstructured" water. And they also
found that every healthy cell was surrounded by "structured" water.
What does this mean? It is simple, at least as far as chemistry is concerned.
"Unstructured" water simply is
missing one electron from its outer orbit, and "structured" water has
no missing electrons. Water, when it moves through pressurized pipes, is forced
to move in concentric rings instead of its natural movement, which is in
spirals. When water moves through pipes it forces the outer electrons to be
removed, creating "unstructured" water. This means that all water
that we drink or bath in that comes from pressurized pipes is associated with
disease. And when we bath in water we absorb through our skin in twenty
minutes, 16 ounces of the water that we are sitting in. It is the same as if we
drank the water. Perhaps mankind has made a mistake much like the Romans did
with their use of lead plates and utensils.
So this is the first indication of a
difference between "structured" and "unstructured" water.
When this was discovered, many people began
to search for a way to structure "unstructured" water. Hence the
magnets, strange shaped glass vessels, metal nozzles, etc. that have appeared
around the world that structures water. Our research showed that water that was
structured in artificial ways did not always look like naturally structured
water when analyzed energetically. For example, magnets structure water almost
instantly, but the water is not safe to drink according to the University of
Georgia.
Then about fifteen years ago brand new
water was discovered. I believe it was Japan who discovered it. It is called
"Clustered Water". Frozen clustered water magnified 20,000 times
looks like tiny snowflakes under the microscope. Clustered water is found in
all babies, human and otherwise, when they are born. It is also found in all
organically grown fruits and vegetables. At some point as we grow older the
clustered water in our bodies becomes bound to proteins. So we must ingest some
clustered water everyday to maintain proper cell hydration and function.
This "Clustered Water" can only
be obtained in the United States in two ways that I am aware of. Dr. Patrick
Flanagan has made clustered water that perhaps is good, but I have never tried
it. He calls it micro-clustered water. And then there is Dr. Lee Lorenzen who
also makes Clustered Water(TM). Both are only sold through multi-level
marketing. I have tried Dr. Lorenzen's water and it seems to be very good for
me. I have been drinking it for the past three months. I can definitely feel
the difference in my energy level. This is the water that I have suggested that
people try. It is vastly different than ordinary "structured" water.
If you are interested, you should study about it and see if it is for you.
Please understand I am not here to sell water, but to study it. However, there
is no way you can get this water in a store, and so to help you I have given
you a name. If you have a friend that is selling the Clustered Water(TM) then
use them. I feel you need to give the Clustered Water(TM) about two to three
months to make a judgment.
It is important to know that the Clustered
Water(TM) concentrate will have a shelf life of two years if kept at 70
degrees. If the concentrate reaches a temperature of up to 115 degrees it can
be frozen for 45 minutes to restore clusters and then kept in the refrigerator.
If the water goes over 115 degrees the clusters are compromised.
Also, in the last 15 years or so, another
new water has been found called "ionized" water. It has one extra
electron. This water is amazing for its ability to clean the environment and
other specialized areas. Chile has an invention that will ionize the water and
make it stable with environmental results that are very promising. And I
believe that the Japanese and the Americans and probably other nations do too.
Now, however, there is another new water
available to the world that could change the world, as we now know it and very
possibly save us from some incredible environmental disaster in the future.
This water is called "Super Ionized Water" (SIW). SIW has three extra
electrons in the water molecule's outer orbits, and it is also stable. If you
analyze the SIW water you will find nothing but water. But if you take an
ordinary lamp and simply put the plug into a glass of SIW it will light up the
lamp brighter than if you plugged it into a wall. Obviously, it is not ordinary
water. It is water filled with electricity.

Energised Water – Indian Way
The ‘THEERTHAM’
one gets from the temple is the energised water. The tradition of keeping the water in the
metal vessel during the puja, and supplying them to the gathered devotees need
to be analysed scientifically. The tradition of keeping the water in hand
chanting mantras is in the practice in Indian tradition. The manthras makes the water energised and
the water would definitely have the star-near shape in its molecule.
Whether we try to answer this question from our Vedic knowledge or from
our latest development in the field of medical science, the answer is one and
the same. Life is essential energy force. Gita shloka says alive is one who has
life and life less is termed as dead." Aids is nothing but inability of
our immure system to withstand the onslaught of diseases. So it's the presence
or the absence of energy which defines the life. Different level and direction
of energy force decide and form the various conditions of life viz. healthy,
ailing or diseased body.
More and more ancient healing-techniques will used additionaly to help
and assist people in different situations where the health, or the inner
balance is injuried. The main view and perception of such techniques or methods
is that the Self or Soul needs to be healed and balanced first, then the Body
will be well too.
Various approaches are known, or
dis-covered and remembranced, which express different views about Soul-Body
Relation, ie. the vedic view express the chakras as energy points and other
methods use the power of breath (pranayama).
All diseases are the result of
inhibited soul life. This is true of all forms in all kingdoms.
A list of different approaches, but
somehow they all look at the same thing by another point of view, and mainly
have one common: they perceive the body as a cloth of soul, and every
imbalance, sickness or malfunction of the body has a connection to the soul,
the spirit. Some approaches more focus on the spirit, some more on physical
assistance:

Astral Entities and Personified
Energies:
It may help often to search for
another approach to perceive a healing issue, this can be the point of view of
astral-influences. We have all heard of the law of like attracts like, but what
it doesn't tell you is that it is what you are, not what you think you are
necessarily. 'You' is defined here by what you as a spirit are. Sometimes we
find spirits attaching themselves to our auras for like reasons that don't seem
like anything that is 'us'.
They can be removed, but if one
doesn't heal and intergrate that part of themselves another will only come to
take their place for that like reason. Spirits attaching to one's aura can
actually be good in this way, as they become bell-ringers to greater aspects of
our multi-dimensional Self that are needing healing and intergration.
We don't need extra burden in our
lives when we are doing this, and having a non-claimed space can make us
susceptible to that kind of burden.
Energy Healing
The healing has a non-medical cannotation as the
healing practices are being handled by non-medical practissioners. The basic concept of relation between the
physical and the mental health will be generally appreciated by all the medical
practissioers, they hardly pay attention to the holistic healing. The curiculum does not include the life force
energy concept, but there is an inclination of attention in recent past towards
the Yoga and Meditation. The healing methods are based on the energy
concept. Most of the healing practices
helps to transform and amplifies various energies into biological energies that
rebalance and re-energize our biological system on the cellular level, as well
as on our emotional, mental, and spiritual levels.
C2 - SURYA
Surya, the sun
is a sousce of pure energy, power and radiance, sustainer of life, and
prosperity. His mantra destroyes poverty and especially popular to cure any
kind of diseases and fill the body with vital power of the sun. Chant Syria
mantra when you don't feel well or getting sick - the rays of the inner sun
will destoy the demons of illness. Chant this mantra to help someone cure
faster or to empower your healing abilities.
AUM BHAASKARAYE
VIDMAHE

DHIMAHI
TANNO SURYAH
PRACHODAYAT
Aryans, just like Slavs, worshipped Sun, or Surya
as it called in India. This term is from "svar", which means a bright
lustre and also means sound. Surya is the form of Sun who is very bright and
always perceived by Sages and poets. He also rules over sounds. He is
worshipped in the Eastern direction ruled by Sun.
Swastika is a symbol if the sun in Hundu tradition
and cross is the symbol if the sun in Slavic tradition.Hindus draw the swastika
in Vermillion on business documents and bridal clothes for luck. They paint it
on the walls and thresholds of homes to energise the environment. Naturally
linked with the glitter of gold, the swastika is worn as a locket hung on a
gold chain - a talisman to ward off darkness, despair and danger. The word
swastika means 'all-well'. Its short form swasti is commonly used in all
sacraments and ceremonial chants. The shape of this symbol was created to point
out the four cardinal directions in which fire sticks were placed to begin
Vedic sacrificial fires. An ancient symbol, it was found in civilizations such
as the Greek, Egyptian and Chinese. Used in snake worship, it is supposedly
seen on the hoods of cobras. The auspicious Swastika is always dedicated to the
springtime sun.
In the Vedas, the sun is represented as a handsome,
golden youth who rides the chariot of light, drawn by seven horses - one for
each day of the week. , a common Hindu symbol of munificence, belongs to the
sun, a true karmayogi who gives abundantly, without asking for anything in
return. There are only two ancient sun temples in India, both of which are
archaeological treasures. They do not however, have idols, which were destroyed
by conquering vandals long years ago.
The Sun (Surya) One of the chief deities of the
Vedas. The physical Sun is the celestial form of fire (Agni). It is the source
of Light, of Warmth, of Life and of Knowledge. Solar energy is the source of
all life. The sun is the center of Creation, at the center of the universe…….
From which are believed to emanate the sixteen rays of knowledge. The sixteen
rays of knowledge being
Kripa (mercy), Mruduta (gentleness), Dhairya
(patience), Vairagya (dispassion), Dhurti (constancy), Sampat (spiritual
prosperity), Hasya (cheerfulness), Romancha (rapture or thrill), Vinaya
(humility), Dhyana (meditativeness), Susthirata (quietude), Udyama (effort),
Gaambhirya (gravity of demeanour), Aksobha (being undisturbed by emotion),
Udararta (magnanimity) and Ekagrata
(concentration).
For centuries, "Surya" (Sun) has been
worshipped as a major deity in India. The sun,
acknowledged as the source of energy, vitality and life, controls the
course of our life. Our concepts of
life, time and death, good and evil, happiness and misery stem from this primeval source of divine effulgence. .
Surya riding a chariot driven by seven
horses is a familiar image in Indian art and sculpture.
Lord Rama was, by sage Agastaya, the Adityahridayam, a
prayer addressed to the sun god. Ramayana says that when Rama stood exhausted
in the battle with Ravana, sage Agastya, who is Surya’s son, recited Aditya
Hridayam to Rama, and that Rama recited it thrice, became rejuvenated and
proceeded to vanquish Ravana.
C3 - AGNIHOTRA (The Sacred Fire Ceremony)
Agni (fire) is the deity that represents all the
other deities. Agni is said to be the mouth of the gods. Agni is known as the
messenger of the gods. Whatever man has to say to the gods, to the higher
powers, he conveys it through Agni. All the gods are fed through Agni. Agni is
the link with the Supreme Lord of all the worlds. Agnihotra or Havan is a
primary and fundamental rite during the performance of which oblations to the
Supreme are offered in the consecrated fire.
The rite is usually performed in the external fire in which the Supreme is invoked. In the Bhagavad Gita, Ch.7, Verse 9, the Lord says: "I am the brilliance in the fire."
"The deities are said to have Agni for their
mouth" – The Mahabharata, Santi Parva
Section CCCXLII
"Agni is Vishnu. Entering all creatures, he
upholds their life-breaths." - The Mahabharata, Santi Parva, Sec. CCCXLIII.
Yajnas link human beings with the hidden cosmic
forces called DEVAS.
"The great elements starting from Space to Earth
are grosser than the former ones. Of these five SPACE and AIR are formless and
cannot be comprehended by eyes. The WATER and EARTH are grosser in that order
and have form and shape. The element FIRE is formless when unmanifest and
attains form while manifested. It is therefore a bridge (link) between the
manifest world and the unmanifest world. Therefore fire is the conveyor of all
the offerings to the formless manifestation of Pitris and gods and other
deities. It is fire who accepts the offerings of forms from the world of
mortals and conveys it to the world." -
Swami Anubhavananda, Mumbai.
"By pouring libations on the sacred fire, sin
is burnt"
- The Mahabharata, Santi Parva, Section CXCI
- The Mahabharata, Santi Parva, Section CXCI
I am the kratu (a kind of Vedic sacrifice), I am
Yajna, I am the offering (food) to the manes; I am the medicinal herb and all
the plants; I am the mantra; I am also the ghee or the melted butter; I am the
fire; I am the oblation.
-The Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 9, Verse 16
-The Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 9, Verse 16
It is unto Krishna (the Supreme Lord) that the sacrificial
priests pour their libations. It is unto Him that people dedicate diverse kinds
of food. He is the soul of the deities and human beings, and Pitris. It is He
who is the Sacrifice performed by those persons that are conversant with the
rituals of sacrifices.
- The Mahabharata, Anusasana Parva, Section CLVIII
- The Mahabharata, Anusasana Parva, Section CLVIII
The sacred fire waits for libations to be
pourd upon it when the hour for
Homa arrives. - The Mahabharata, Anusasana Parva, Section CLXII
Five great daily sacrifices
Explanations by Swami Sivananda, Divine Life
Society, Rishikesh
There are five great daily sacrifices that are to
be performed by every householder. They are:
1.
Brahma Yajna or Veda Yajna. Sacrifice to Brahman or the Vedas or the sages. (Teaching and studying scriptures is Brahma Yajna)
2.
Deva Yajna. Sacrifice to the celestials. (Homa or oblations into the sacred fire is Deva
Yajna)
3.
Pitri Yajna. Sacrifice
to the manes. (Tarpan or offering of water to the ancestors, and Sraddha, form
Pitri Yajna)
4.
Bhuta Yajna. Sacrifice
to all the creatures. (Offering of food to all creatures is Bhuta Yajna)
5.
Manushya Yajna. Sacrifice to man. (Hospitality to guests is
Manushya Yajna or Atithi Yajna)
Field Of Energy Around Havan Kund
Agnihotra is generally known as the havan or yagna
(yajna)
ceremony or the sacred fire ceremony. Some researchers in Baltimore, Maryland. USA have published literature from which the following points are taken.
ceremony or the sacred fire ceremony. Some researchers in Baltimore, Maryland. USA have published literature from which the following points are taken.
Agnihotra is a gift to humanity from the ancient
Vedic traditions to the present age.
A tremendous field of energy is created around the
havan kund (the pyramid shaped metal container). A magnetic type field is
created which neutralises negative energy or vibrations and reinforces positive
energy or vibrations. This extends to the persons who perform the agnihotra ceremony.
The positive influence penetrates the physical, mental, intellectual and
spiritual planes. Subtle energies are created by the rhythmical chanting of the
Vedic mantras during the havan ceremony which spread the purifying as well as
healing energies far and wide beyond the horizons.
Plants placed in a room where vibrations of
agnihotra ceremony are maintained, such plants receive nutrition from agnihotra
atmosphere and seem to be happy and grow well. They seem to thrive better than
those plants not under the agnihotra sphere of influence. Just as agnihotra
gives nourishment to plants, it provides the same for human life and also for
animal life.
Many people on all continents belonging to
different races,
languages, religions and spiritual groups who practice
agnihotra have observed that simply by performing daily homa (i.e. agnihotra at sunrise/sunset) they feel as if a protective film surrounds them.
The ashes from the agnihotra fire are charged with special
potencies. Sprinkling of the ashes on the perimeter of your
property affords protective influences.

The agnihotra ash is the basic substance used for
the preparation of all agnihotra medicines, for external as well as for
internal use.
Agnihotra medical preparations include agnihotra powder,
capsules, ointment, cream, eyedrops, suppositories and inhalation.

Healing Ash, Pyramids and Cow Manure
Everyone talks about healing the
planet, but few offer viable solutions and, while programs such as recycling
may slow the damage, they make no claims to actually restore the planet.
Agnihotra is an alternative which will not only heal the
atmosphere, but also reset the planet's energies and its abilities to heal
itself--with a simple, inexpensive method usable in any home.
Agnihotra's practitioners work to restore the earth's
energies through fire, tuned to the circadian rhythm of sunrise and sunset.
Agnihotra employs a copper, pyramid-shaped pot. Pieces of
dried cow manure are added to sticks of sandelwood and then dabbed with ghee
(unsalted table butter, heated and strained through a cheese cloth or paper
towel, when properly prepared, ghee doesn't spoil over time and requires no
refrigeration). Natural brown rice mixed with ghee--just the amount you can
grasp with the fingers of one hand--are placed in the flames center precisely
at the moment the sun is said to rise and set. Ancient vibrational tones in the
form of a short mantra are uttered when adding the rice.
Fragrant, healing substances are released into the air and
the dancing flames provide a relaxed atmosphere--perfect for meditation.
Agnihotra atmosphere also aids plant growth.
The use of Agnihotra ash is unlimited. It detoxifies
anything, anywhere. Placed directly on wounds, it stops bleeding and itching.
In the garden, ash enhances plant growth--and plant leaves dusted with ash
discourage aphids. Mixed with honey or sprinkled in food or drink, Agnihotra
ash taken internally purifies your system.
All human cultures use charcoal as a purifier because harmful
bacteria cannot grow in ash. African folk medicine rubs cow-dung ashes on eyes
to cure infection. Following the Union Carbide leak in Bhopal, India, Agnihotra
ashes, when used, eradicated the devastating effects. In the modern world,
charcoal is used to purify drinking water and fish tanks, it is in cigarette
filters, and hospitals pump charcoal through the stomachs of those who overdose
on drugs. Agnihotra ash is structurally similar to charcoal, but its healing
properties are enhanced due to the subtle energy interplay stemming from the combined
effects of the substances burned, the energies associated with the copper
pyramid, the vibrations of the mantra, and the attunement to the powerful
sunrise/sunset biorhythm.
Agnihotra ( Havan)
Agnihotra is the smallest form of Yagna. It
is the basic form of purification of the atmosphere. By inducing change in the
atmosphere you bring about changes in PRANA (Life Energy). PRANA and the mind
are like two sides of the same coin and hence, the beneficial change is
transposed to the realm of the mind. For Agnihotra, A copper pyramid of
prescribed size is recommended.
There are
specific varieties of trees prescribed for firewood to prepare the fire for the
specific purpose If they are not available you may use any firewood. However,
firewood from trees with thorns or from trees bearing bitter fruit should
be avoided. Ghee prepared from cow's butter is another item required. It is a
must. Take pure butter, unsalted, unadulterated butter from cow's milk) and
heat it on low heat, bringing it to a slow boil. Remove the
white substance that rises to the top and discard it. Pass the liquid
through several layers of cheese cloth or a paper towel. What passes
through is ghee. Store it in a container. It could be stored without
refrigeration. Apply a little ghee to firewood sticks and arrange the sticks in
the pot in a log circulate. Take a few pieces of dry cow dung and keep one
small flat piece at the bottom touching the pyramid cabin fashion to allow air
to enter and put the rest on top of the fire sticks in the pot. How to prepare
dry cow dung? By using a rubber hand dash cow dung and let them dry in the sun.
If weather does
not permit, then dry the pieces
in the house under an electric sun lamp. Store the dry dung cakes for daily
use. Put a little ghee on cow dung pieces before lighting fire. Sunrise and
sunset are the timings for Agnihotra.
You can find timings from an almanac
which should be adjusted to local time. About two minutes before sunrise
or sunset, light the fire. The fire should be ablaze at sunrise or sunset
time. Utter the first Mantra and add the first portion of rice into fire. Then
utter the second Mantra and add the second portion of rice into fire. Raw
rice, preferably brown rice, should be used for Agnihotra. The quantity of rice
that you can hold in the tips of your fingers constitutes one portion. Keep
enough rice ready for two portions. Apply ghee to the body of rice and put
portions on fire after Mantras. Try to spare as many minutes as you can for
meditation after each Agnihotra.
Keep one corner of your room aside for
Agnihotra. If you have plants growing in the room you will soon notice that
Agnihotra gives nourishment to plant life. Agnihotra ashes should be kept aside
for use as fertilizer for plants. With Agnihotra atmosphere and Agnihotra ash,
you can grow large crops in a small area. The taste, texture, color and
quantity improve by this method of gardening. Agnihotra is the smallest though
basic form of HOME. Agnihotra removes the tension from the mind. It unburdens
the mind. You will soon notice that anger and greed become less and you feel
free. This brings about happiness.
You will soon notice that you are moving in
a happy atmosphere if you practice getting rid of your Medicines are prepared
from emotional cycles, which leads you to tranquility and peace. Agnihotra ash.
Agnihotra is the basis for holistic healing. Vedas describe Agnihotra as a
process of fumigation also. Practice of Agnihotra nullifies the effect of
pathogenic bacteria. Agnihotra, if practiced regularly, yields great HEALING
POWER to the atmosphere as well as to the individual. Thus, Agnihotra has three
disciplines:
a. Burning
of specific organic substances into fire;
b. Mantra;
c. Specific
timings corresponding to one circadian rhythm of nature, i.e.
sunrise, sunset. If you miss the timing, then it is not Agnihotra. Vibratory
effects of certain metals such as copper and gold are known to the scientist.
When specific substances are burnt in a pyramid made of copper with Mantra and
the timings, for example, specific effect is guaranteed to occur. The
layer of useful atmosphere surrounding the earth is very thin. Automobile
pollution, pollution due to factory exhausts, water pollution, noise pollution,
the disturbance caused to marine biology due to the disposal of nuclear waste
in the oceans, the effect of radiations on human physiology, indiscriminate
cutting of forests for raw materials, indiscriminate probing into the bowels of
earth for raw materials to feed the industrial complex, indiscriminate use of
pesticides, insecticides, chemical fertilizers, deodorants, room freshener, all
these adversely affect the atmosphere. This leads to tension on the mind and
increase in the incidence of disease, nervousness and psychiatry. All this must
go if we wish to be happy.
The Fivefold Path of the Vedas is a manual
for happy living. The first aspect of the Fivefold path is Agnihotra for
purification of the mind. You may belong to any formal religion, you may be an
atheist or agnostic you will benefit from Agnihotra of the Fivefold Path. The
Fivefold Path sets up life patterns based on the bio-psychological techniques
given through Vedic knowledge. You need not carry the hypothesis of God to
practice the Fivefold Path. You start the practice and knowledge will be
unfolded to you from within. Believe only what you experience. This is the
approach of the true scientist. PLEAS
NOTE THIS THERE IS NO HAVAN (HOME THERAPY WHICH CAN CURE ANY DISEASE, IT
CAN HELP TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH ,BUT CAN NOT CURE)
C-4
SPIRITUAL ILLNESS
We come back to the quote from Esoteric Healing by Alice
Bailey, "All disease is a result of inhibited soul life." A book
called the The Sai Prophesy by Barbara Gardner explains how conflicts and soul
purpose extend over multiple lifetimes and are not confined simply to this
lifetime. It is important to look at the bigger picture when viewing from the
soul's perspective. Frequent conflicts with our soul's purpose can occur.
Conflicts with past life relationships that can continue until you' correct the
relationship and life style choices. These include other conflicts between what
the soul[ would have the personality do and what the personality actually
brings forth, exist. The spiritual energy that comes through the physical can
be felt when a sense of peace envelops one, even during adversity or danger.
When you start to experience the synchronicity and miracles in your life
frequently, you know you are on the right course. As long as the personality is
conflicted with the soul's direction, there will be strife, conflict, and
depression in the emotional plane. At a certain point in one's spiritual
development the spiritual energy begins to come through the personality and
disintegrate the negative patterns in the personality. People report that they
feel like there are coming apart when this divine transformation begins.
There is a lot of pure energy that is coming through that has
not been experienced before. They describe spinning sensations inside the body
and they feel like they are being pulled out of their body, often through,their
crown located at the top of the head. Of course, no MRI or lab test will
diagnose this condition. This is called spiritual awakening and is accompanied
by shifts in consciousness. The eastern tradition calls this Kundalini rising
and the western tradition refers to it as the Holy Spirit. We find that after a
period of releasing physically, emotionally, and mentally, what is being
released is mostly fear. One arrives at a peaceful place where one is more detached,
and the emotions and desires no longer role. One begins to take on the role of
the observer. This spiritual energy can be associated with strange neurological
symptoms which includes jerking, headaches, dizziness, areas of numbness that
are not related to nerve distributions, palpitations, and shortness of breath.
Rather than any particular pill that might be prescribed by western doctors, we
would recommend instead meditation, contemplation, walking in nature, and
digging in the earth to ground oneself of these high spiritual energies
Disciplines such as Yoga, Tai Chi, and Qi Gong are successful
in balancing the body's energy. One is usually lead to a vegetarian diet and
taken to sacred spaces for balancing and initiations. Vibrational medicine such
as flower essences, gem elixirs, and crystals may be very helpful at this time.
Other vibrational therapies such as essential oils, chakra balancing, color and
sound therapy, spiritual healing, and toning could also be helpful. One starts
to listen to specific music that balances the energy. It is important to work
with a group, for this is a time for group initiation, not individual
initiation. Group meditation and group input is very supportive while
developing spiritual sight and hearing. If you try this alone, you have a
danger of going off course. You need input from experienced teachers who have
taken this same route. You do not necessarily want to seek a Guru, but
teachers.
It is important to seek the God or the "I am"
within you and find this place of inner unconditional love. You cannot give
away what you don't have within you. When you realize that you will not find
what you think you need outside of yourself and start looking within, all will
manifest. The most important lesson is our mission to serve on Earth and to
fulfill our purpose. In serving, we connect our physical self with our God
self, which in turn allows us to be God's manifestation on Earth and help
uplift the planet including humanity.
The Reality and The Truth of Spirit
In plain language, There is only
One God or Universal Energy that Is Everything. There is only One
Consciousness. We are only one individuated expression of The One. All the
dogma, theology and religious beliefs anyone chooses to pile on this truth is
commonly referred to as bull. It is the lack of true knowledge and the
application of these distortions which have been the source of all the
problems. Spirit is alive, it is something that is lived and experienced, the
surest way to destroy or supress it is to organize it and institutionalize it.
A very special understanding has come about
out of all the Trinity Project research, a brief outline as follows: Everything
we think or feel affects us and others. Realize every feeling such as anger,
fear, hate etc., are mind generated emotions and should be modified or
eliminated, one of our hardest to let go is that of Judgement and is an
imperative. Anyone can accomplish an extremely beneficial start by
concentrating only on the Spiritual aspects, the emotions of Love, Compassion
and purity of Intent and Purpose. In every situation where "I" and
"ME" become the central
thought and focus, begin realizing this as the mind driven Ego blocking
the True Spirit of yourself and everything in the universe. No matter what you
think about anything, how does it feel in your Heart, if it is not coming from
Love let it go.
In this modern material world
filled with cynicism and disbelief,
Begin To Know This Universe Is Full Of Real
Mystery And Magic beyond your wildest imagination. All that is required
to access these aspects is to do all things with compassion, good intent and
with unconditional Love. These few steps sound very simplistic and trite yet
contained within in their simplicity lie the keys to unlocking the universe and
to discovering the Real Reality.
The Big Secret
If there is but one bit of
knowledge derived from these writings cherish this crucial information. There
are only two types of individuals in this world, the ones who want to stay and
those who want to leave. The ones who are determined to leave have already set
the process in stone and cannot be interfered with. The ones who want to stay
and are having problems can affect dramatic changes by addressing the body,
mind and spiritual energy patterns and consciousness.
The bottom line for many concerning
their Health and Well being in their present existence is much affected by two
factions, Doctors and Ministers. Doctors are trained as mechanics who work on
the physical mechanism. They are in the Business of Treatment, they are Not
Trained in the "Art of Healing". Most do not even understand the most
rudimentary concepts of Healing. Most do not realize how they can produce
damage and even induce death sentences on their patients.
There is little difference in the
effects produced by an intentional damaging curse or a prayer prayed
improperly, bad advice or simply some random negative thought. Ministers are
trained in traditional theosophical dogmatic perceptions specific to the
cultural religious views they ascribe to. Many generally have little concept
about True Spirituality or how the universe really operates. As a consequence
they convey misinformation, half truths, superstitions and fears along with a
multitude of associated damaging information into a person's consciousness. The
result of which is Confusion and Paradox.
The suggestion regarding a strictly
religious approach would be to make a serious effort to study each and every
one of them thoroughly and in depth. The result will be absolutely amazing when
one discovers each and everyone of them are all talking about the Same Thing,
only from their own unique perspective. Real enlightenment develops as the
understanding for each reveals they are only methods and techniques.
Considering what
the public is receiving from so many sources, Bad Information is Bad
Information and Incorrect Information is still Incorrect Information, no matter
how well intentioned.
Spiritual Healing
All
living material emanates energizing radiations. These rays are a powerful force
and therefore it is understandable that the force fields from certain people
can have a healthful effect on others. Such healing rays are similar to the
manufactured x-rays or ultra-violet rays, long used in medical cures. Some
individuals have such strong energizing force fields that they can actually
cure others without any physical contact. Plants and animals, as well as
humans, can exchange healing rays that influence health and growth. Spiritual
healing can also be accomplished at a distance whereby people have sent cures
to others through the thought process alone.
The Healing that is referred to is
in keeping with all known traditional practices and what is beginning to be
understood scientifically about the Healing process and what is referred to as
Energy Healing or Spiritual Healing. Spiritual Healing Has always existed amid
religious beliefs and practices, along with the mystery, superstition, fear,
and misunderstanding. By many it has also been looked upon as something as an
oddity or a complete fantasy. It has only been a very short time since the idea
of giant iron birds carrying hundreds of us through the heavens was considered
sheer lunacy. Spiritual or Energy Healing is now becoming a very real reality
irregardless of what anyone chooses to believe or think.
By definition the word
"HEAL" means,
1.
To
restore to health or soundness,
2.
To
set right, repair,
3.
To
restore a person to spiritual wholeness,
4.
To
become whole and sound, to return to health.
Much confusion arises out of the
association of healing with religion and and the spiritual. Many people do not
understand the difference. By definition "SPIRIT" means, the vital
principle or animating force within living beings, Incorporeal consciousness.
There about twelve more elaborations mostly to do with various religious
implications.
By definition "RELIGION"
means,
1.
Belief
in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded as creator and
governor of the universe,
2.
A
set of beliefs, values and practices based on the teachings of a spiritual
leader.
Based on these common
interpretations of how things 'ARE', many paradoxes are created. The resultant
effect is confusion and un-wellness. The Truth as we are beginning to
understand it is this: Every Thing in the universe is Energy and Consciousness.
How anyone feels about that Fact cannot change it. The purpose of All religions
is the recognition that humans have a part of themselves that is not physical
and there is a need to explore and experience this aspect of themselves. Part
of the intent is to discover ones purpose and to live in the best way possible,
part of that goal also includes the attainment of Truth and Spiritual Wellness.
However, the result in regard to our Spiritual health most have been an abysmal
failure.
If the most important aspect of our
being is our Spiritual self, it is a miracle we even exist. Currently, many
churches are in a state of extreme confusion in an attempt to enter the next
millennium considering their struggle to incorporate all the now known knowledge
and incorporate it into their dogma and theology. The problem is the
impossibility of reconciling the obvious flaws in most theology and doctrine.
The obvious shortcomings and how political and nationalistic and other special
interests and agendas have resulted in a history filled with disappointment and
tragedy.
The
most beautiful and simple interpretation of how everything 'IS' can be found in
the Native American tradition. "Everything in the universe is Spirit, each
thing in it is of the same Spirit and it is all Connected." This is
exactly what we are beginning to understand in science and quantum physics,
that everything in the universe is made of the same thing and has a
consciousness about it. The two things that are driving the scientists mad is
the fact that all these things operate across time, space and dimensions they
do not yet understand, and the ability of things to operate on interdimensional
and multidimensional levels.
In discussions with traditionally
trained physicists and scientists involved in aerospace research who have
become involved in the spiritual aspect, they have a more concise and accurate
understanding of Spirit and the Spiritual than those from a theological
background.

control of the senses, penance, truthfulness, absence of hatred and pride will
help you to attain God.
Mantra Sound The Seed Of
Matter
A
MANTRA is a mystical energy encased in a sound structure. Every mantra contains
within its vibration a certain power. Upon concentration and repetition of a
given mantra, its energy is liberated and takes form
There
are different types of mantras. Some called Bija (Seed) mantra. They have no exact meaning but act directly on the
nerves of astral body. The other type of mantras, having a combination of
words, and having some meaning also set up powerful vibrations in the
body. Most common, however is the deity
mantras, in which a specific form with attributes is visualized along with the repetition of the
sound. Initiation - If possible, before attempting Japa one should seek out a
guru and receive mantra initiation from him. Only those who are themselves pure
can give initiation to others.
Therefore it is important to find a qualified guru to successfully implant the
mantras in the disciples body. If no guru can be found, one may select any mantra that seems appropriate to fulfil
his desires, assuming Lord Shiva as his guru and start repeating it with
mentally with faith and devotion everyday. The efficiency of the japa is
accentuated according to the degree of concentration. The mind should be fixed
on the source or the related YANTRA (please see
section for details). Then only you will realize the maximum benefit of
a mantra.
C5 - AN INTRODUCTION TO ESOTERIC HEALING
The energy field surrounds and permeates
all living beings. It is the scaffolding for our physical body. Within the
energy field of each person are seven major centers. Each of these centers
energizes or vitalizes its related nerve center, endocrine gland, internal
organ system and the circulatory system. It is within this energy field that
the cause of disease appears to be located. Through training, a practitioner
can learn to work with areas that are weak or congested within the energy
field, and by use of various balancing techniques, can bring the individual’s
energy field to a more flowing, healthy, harmonious state.
This type of healing work is called
Esoteric Healing. 'Esoteric' means 'hidden' or 'further within'. There is a
subtle aspect that is not obvious until you study it in greater depth. The
existence of the energy field and its use in healing has been known for
thousands of years, especially in Egypt, India, and China. It is only recently,
however, that modern western science has realized its significance. It has been
called by various names: Vital body, bioenergy field, "L" (life)
field and etheric body.
What is
Esoteric Healing?
Through years of observation and study of
many different disciplines, the members of the International Network of
Esoteric Healing have developed a Science of Healing in the Energy Field (or
Esoteric Healing). This has proven to be a very effective method of treatment.
In a healthy person, the energy field is evenly balanced and harmonious, but
where there is dis-ease, imbalance and disharmony can be felt. Healing
practitioners learn to sensitize their hands and inner perception to examine
the energy field in detail in order to find alterations in the flow of the
energy field. The practitioner does not touch the individual, but works away
from the body.
Is the
patient required to do anything?
A brief history is obtained prior to each
treatment. The individual is treated in their position of comfort and asked to
relaxed and be receptive. Sessions will generally last 30 to 45 minutes. Some
individuals may feel nothing while others may have a sense of deep relaxation
or light movement. Occasionally the effect is felt immediately, but more
frequently the effect is not observed until later.
Our energy fields are influenced by our
mental and emotional states, and working in this field may produce an effect in
these areas. We ask the individual to have some quiet time to consider the
thoughts, memories, and feelings that may come up to the surface of the mind in
the days following the treatment.
How many
visits does it take?
There is no rule about this. Occasionally
total relief is obtained after one visit, however six and ten visits are more
often required to achieve balance.
Does the
patient need faith?
No, this is not 'faith' healing. Skeptics
have benefited from this form of healing. Obviously, if a person is open-minded
they are more likely to be responsive than one who 'resists' help. We as a
group are spiritually oriented and non-sectarian. We believe that healing
energies are available to all, whether or not the individual belongs to any
religious denomination.
Does it
work for everyone?
We find that about 75% of those who come
for help benefit considerably. Of the remainder, about 10% seem to have no
benefit whatsoever while the other 15% find that while their treatment has
helped, they do not see benefits for several weeks.
In England in 1965 a small group of
healers, led by a pioneer radar scientist, began to discover the significance
of the human energy field. Until this time most healers had worked through
contact with the physical body, but this research group uncovered a far more
effective method of energy diagnosis and treatment. They found that they could
pinpoint weak or congested areas of the field and then re-charge or re-direct
the energy flow. In turn, the energy field affected the physical body as well
as the more subtle levels of the individual’s being, and healing took place.
In 1973 one of this group, Brenda Johnston,
was invited to lecture on the work, first in England, and then in Canada and
America. She set up a series of three courses designed to introduce the student
to the esoteric anatomy of the energy field, bringing in related spiritual
subjects and meditation. Mrs. Johnston was invited to teach these courses in
many countries, including Switzerland, Germany and South Africa. It was not
until the early 1980’s that other teachers began to come forward from among her
students to share the workload and it was then that the ‘International Health
Research Network’ was founded. In 1993 the name was changed to ‘International
Network of Esoteric Healing’.
The network is a group of people brought
together by their common interest in holistic medicine. They believe that a true
state of good health can only come about when there is a balance between the
physical, psychological, and spiritual aspects of the individual.
Each network teacher has had a minimum of
three years of practical experience using the Esoteric Healing principles
followed by two to three years in a teacher-training program. The teachers meet
yearly throughout the world to develop, discuss and coordinate their work.
Worldwide there are over sixty teachers in the network. Courses are currently
offered regularly in Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark,
Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland,
Spain, South Africa, Sweden, United Kingdom, USA, and Zimbabwe.
Esoteric Tradition
From immemorial time, and in all races,
there has been current, especially among minds more receptive and thoughtful
than the average run, an intuition, persistent and ever-enduring, that there
exists somewhere a body of sublime teaching or doctrine which can be had by
those who qualify to receive it by becoming worthy depositaries of it. These
intimations have frequently found lodgment in legend and myth, and thus have
become enshrined or crystallized in the different religious and philosophical
records of the human race.
There is probably no single group of
religious and philosophical works which does not contain some more or less
clear record, given either in open statement or by vague hint, of the existence
of this wisdom-teaching. It is one of the most interesting of literary pursuits
to trace out and assemble together these scattered and usually imperfect
records, found everywhere; and by juxtaposition to discover in them distinct
and easily verifiable proof that they are indeed but fragments of an archaic
wisdom common to the human race. The literary historian, the mythologer, the
anthropologist, all know of the existence of these scattered fragments of
archaic thought, but being utterly unable to make anything coherently sensible
of them, they are usually falsely ascribed to the inventive genius of so-called
primitive man weaving myths and legendary tales about natural phenomena which
had occurred and which, because of the fear and awe their appearance had
aroused, were thought to be the workings of gods and genii, godlings and
demons, some friendly and some inimical to man.
Running in a directly contrary direction is
the teaching brought again to the western world by H. P. Blavatsky, who showed
in her marvelous books the real and continuing existence in the world of such a
body of wisdom-teaching, full and complete, coherent throughout and throughout
logically satisfying, and comprising in its totality a marvelous system of very
difficult teaching, of information dealing not only with cosmogonic matters
embracing the noumena and the phenomena of the universe but, because naturally
included in this totality, likewise a complete story of the origin, nature, and
destiny of man.
This great system of teaching has been
called in different ages the esoteric philosophy, wisdom-religion, secret doctrine,
ancient wisdom, or again, the esoteric tradition. As stated by H. P. Blavatsky
in the Introductory to her Secret Doctrine:
the Esoteric philosophy is alone calculated
to withstand, in this age of crass and illogical materialism, the repeated
attacks on all and everything man holds most dear and sacred, in his inner
spiritual life. . . . Moreover, Esoteric philosophy reconciles all religions,
strips every one of its outward, human garments, and shows the root of each to
be identical with that of every other great religion. It proves the necessity
of an absolute Divine Principle in nature. . . .
. . . The Secret Doctrine was the
universally diffused religion of the ancient and prehistoric world. Proofs of
its diffusion, authentic records of its history, a complete chain of documents,
showing its character and presence in every land, together with the teaching of
all its great adepts, exist to this day . . .
. . . Fragments have survived geological
and political cataclysms to tell the story; and every survival shows evidence
that the now Secret
Wisdom was once the one fountain head, the ever-flowing perennial source, at
which were fed all its streamlets -- the later religions of all nations -- from
the first down to the last. -- pp. xx, xxxiv, xliv-xlv
An exhaustive and genuinely critical
examination, conducted in a wholly impersonal spirit, of even the remains of
ancient times will convince one that these statements are founded on truth and
fact; and the conviction grows upon the impartial student that it is a marvel
that scholars could have been so blind as to allow the actual existence of the
esoteric tradition to escape observation and discovery for so long. What is
needed, very evidently, is more intuition and less merely brain-mind analysis
of dates and grammar and names and spellings.
Intuition, be it active or relatively
inactive, is the source of all human understanding of truth. It lives in the
heart of man, in the core of his being; and it is the working of this intuition
which gives to him all his highest and best ideas regarding the nature of man
and the universe. Doubtless everyone has at some time thought: Is there no
truth in the universe that a thinking man can find and understand? Is there in
fact nothing but uncertainty and vague surmises and speculations without
number, all based upon a mere researching, albeit faithful enough, among
natural facts? The answer comes like the "still small voice" saying:
There must be, in a universe regulated and ruled by law and consequence, some means
of arriving at a fully satisfying explanation of that universe, because it is
One, and therefore wholly and throughout consistent with itself. Where then may
be found the truth about the universe -- some satisfactory explanation of
THINGS AS THEY ARE?
There can be but one truth, and if we can
find a formulation of that truth in logical, coherent, and consistent form,
obviously we then can understand portions of it equal to our capacity of
comprehension. It is the esoteric tradition, today called theosophy, which may
be proved to be this formulation of truth -- formulated in our present age
according to the spiritual-intellectual fashions and manners of the time, it is
true, but nevertheless conveying the age-old message of wisdom and cosmic
reality.
The subjects of which it treats deal with
the universe and with mankind as an offspring of that universe. It tells us
what man is, what his inner constitution is, how the latter is held together in
a coherent unity, whence it comes, what becomes of its various principles and
elements when the great liberator, death, frees the imprisoned spirit-soul.
Telling us all this, it teaches us likewise how properly to understand men;
and, understanding them, this comprehension enables us to go behind the veil of
outer appearances and under the surface of the seeming into the realms of
reality. It teaches us likewise of the nature of civilizations, and how they
arise, what they are based on, and of the working of the energies springing
from human hearts and minds which form civilization. It offers, moreover, an
explanation of what to the materialist are the unsolvable riddles of life, an
explanation entirely based upon that Mother Nature which is the source and
background of all our being.
Theosophy is not an invention; it was not
discovered; it was not composed by some finely intellectual and spiritual mind.
Nor is it a mere syncretistic aggregate of philosophical and religious
doctrines, taken piecemeal from the various religions and philosophies of the
world. Theosophy is that original formulation of truth from which all the great
religions and philosophies of antiquity sprang in their origin.
We aver that this majestic wisdom-religion
is as old as thinking man, far older than the so-called enduring hills; because
races of thinking men have existed in times so far past that continents have
been submerged under the water of the oceans and new lands have arisen to take
the places of those which disappeared, and these geologic convulsions were long
posterior to the first appearance of homo sapiens on this
globe. Geology tells us somewhat of the wondrous story of the rocks and seas;
how continents replaced seas and oceans, which in their turn now again roll
their waters over what was once vast stretches of plain and mountain -- and,
theosophy adds, lands which were the habitats of highly civilized races of men.
Indeed, this ancient doctrine, this
esoteric system, was delivered to the first thinking human beings on this earth
by highly intelligent spiritual entities from superior spheres; and it has been
passed down from guardians to guardians thereof, until our own time.
Furthermore, portions of this original and majestic system have been given out
at various periods of time to various races in various parts of the world by
those guardians when humanity stood in need of some new extension and cyclical
renewal of spiritual verities.
Who are these guardians of the
wisdom-religion? They are those whom we call the Elder Brothers of the human
race, and are men in all senses of the word and not excarnate spirits; but they
are, relatively speaking, fully evolved or perfected men -- men who have, more
successfully than we as yet have, run the evolutionary race and are therefore
now, in point of spiritual and intellectual grandeur, where we shall be many
ages hence.
In each age which needs it -- and these
needs recur cyclically due to the revolving wheel of life -- there comes a new
"revelation," a new unveiling with an accompanying spiritual and
mental revolution in human minds and hearts, from this great brotherhood
composed of these masters of life and wisdom -- a mastery gained through the
unfolding in the individual of the spiritual and intellectual powers and
faculties which are native to all men, but which require bringing forth or
unfolding, partly by self-induced efforts in training and partly by teaching
given in the initiation chambers.
Human mentality, while differing greatly in
individuals due to differences in individual evolution and because each one
follows his own path, nevertheless pursues one common course of action, because
we are all intimately related as human beings. On account of this fact, our
minds do tend, through the natural operations of thinking itself, towards one
common end; so that the universal consent of people everywhere to certain
fundamental principles, based on nature's workings in the human constitution,
is a proof, as far as it goes, that any system of thought comprising
fundamental truths, acknowledged by all men, must be a truthful presentation of
the elementary workings of nature, so far as the human intellect can understand
and transmit these workings into human mental systematization. And those
elementary, or indeed more complicated and developed, workings of nature -- or
what comes to the same thing, those natural principles of universal being --
are what we call truth, in other words, things and beings AS THEY ARE IN
THEMSELVES.
This body of teachings, kept and reserved
for worthy depositaries, yet divulged at cyclical intervals for the common
human weal, is the common property of mankind, and is seen always to have been
so. Consequently, in all the various great religions and philosophies are to be
found fundamental principles which, when subjected to meticulous examination
and analysis, are easily discovered to be identic in substance. However, no
world religion or philosophy gave out in fullness and in clear and explicit
shape or form the entire body of teachings which are at its heart; one religion
emphasizes one or more of such fundamental principles; another religion or
philosophy will emphasize others, the remaining principles lying in the
background and relatively veiled in formulation. For this reason the various
religions and philosophies vary in type and characteristics and often, to the
unreflecting mind, seem to have little in common, and perhaps to be
contradictory the one of others.
Another cause of this variety in shape and
appearance is the varying manner in which each such religion or philosophy was
originally given or promulgated to the world, the form that each took being
best for the period in which it was propagated. Each such religion or
philosophy, having its own place and period in time, represents, in its later
forms, the various human minds who have developed its doctrines or who have translated
it to the world in this or that particular form. These mannerisms of thinking
we may discard if we wish, but in the fundamental principles behind every great
religion or philosophy, in this universal doctrine, lies the mystery-field of
each great religion or philosophy.
C6 - HOLISTIC & SPRITUAL MEDICINE
MERGING TRADITIONAL AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE
My
journey into the exploration of holistic medicine began in part due to my
becoming aware of my own energy system through spiritual study and meditation.
Although I had meditated on occasion for many years, I began an intense
meditation program in 1989 along with a shift to a vegetarian diet. These
intensive spiritual practices facilitated a shift in my awareness during a five
month period where I meditated 5-7 hours a day. As my consciousness expanded, I
became aware of centers of energies in my body which often felt like they were
spinning. These centers opened bringing in information and awareness that I had
never experienced. With increased awareness of the state of these centers,
illness could be avoided by concentration on the centers in meditation. Before
I had this awareness, I would "suddenly" become ill with little
warning. Along with the opening of these energy centers, I experienced a shift
in consciousness in that I was able to receive clairvoyant information, often
through multiple senses including clairaudience, visions, and sometimes a
"knowing".
I
had left a very busy plastic surgery practice in South Atlanta where I had been
working over 100 hours a week. A clairvoyant had visited the office and given
me Barbara Brennan's book "Hands of Light". She told me that I was a
healer. I asked in meditation what I should do and I heard "quit your
job". In late December of 1989 I left my practice and did not return to
work until May of 1990 when seven patients called in one week and asked to
schedule surgery.
The
practice that I returned to was different as I had shifted consciousness. I was
still working 80 to 100 hours a week but I incorporated intuitive diagnosis and
energy medicine on a daily basis. "Laying on of hands" helped my
patients' pain, swelling, resolution of infections, nerve regeneration and
wound healing. Wounds healed approximately twice as fast with the additional
energy and highly contaminated wounds such as dog and human bites did not
become infected with the use of energy medicine.
The
intuitive diagnosis was fun. My beeper would go off and I would "see"
the injury happen or the mangled hand of the patient waiting for me in the
emergency room. While laying hands on, I would "see" the unresolved
conflict behind the infection or the issues that led to the injury. As a hand
surgeon, I saw a pattern of fingertip injuries with the thumb having to do with
"will", the index finger having to do with "faith", the middle
finger having to do with "self-love or self-image", the ring finger
having to do with "money or material security", and the little finger
having to do with "sex and relationship issues". If I could help the
patients explore and resolve these spiritual issues, then the injuries would
often heal quickly with little chance of re-injury.
My
own experience with spiritual "will" issues was demonstrated one day
in surgery. I was switching the tip on the electrocautery unit when it short
circuited and burned a hole in my thumb. The cord was damaged and I was
grateful that it had burned me rather than the patient, but just as the injury
occurred, my mind flashed onto a scene in the grocery store where the day
before I had decided to buy several packages of cookies and candy despite my
inner guidance to avoid sweets during this time. My personal "will"
resulted in a thumb burn as a reminder to obey my higher spiritual will. As I
became aware of energy centers in my body and the bodies of my patients, I
began to understand holistic medicine. You could see and feel how dietary
changes affected your energy, how emotional states modulated your energy, and
how spiritual practices such as meditation, prayer and fasting could raise your
energy. I could even understand how a single "thought" could shift my
energy dramatically and even cause physical symptoms. Recalling a difficult
surgical case can cause pain in my neck and shoulders as my body relives the
mental, emotional and physical strain of taking on the responsibility of
carrying a patient through a difficult or hazardous surgery.
I
can experience first hand how stress flows through the mind into the body but
fortunately I also have the tools mentally to relax these same muscles and
bring energy into these areas that are stressed from surgery. Many plastic
surgeons by age 40 have required cervical diskectomies due to the strain of
arduous and long hours of microsurgery and use of the headlight. Proper
strengthening, massage, and chiropractic adjustments can do much to keep the
surgeon from going under the knife.
We
each have "weak" areas in our bodies that can become symptomatic when
we are stressed. Teaching the patient to recognize the early symptoms of such
stress and counter with a variety of holistic modalities to strengthen the
system is the basis of holistic medicine. The particular modality is less
important than the timing of the intervention. Waiting too long allows collapse
of the system so that a more prolonged recovery is necessary. Modalities
including homeopathic remedies, nutritional supplements, herbal medicine,
traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture or acupressure, energy medicine,
massage, chiropractic and various other physical modalities such as
hydrotherapy. All have one feature in common, they help strengthen the human
energy system in some manner. It is this "field" effect that
characterizes holistic medicine from traditional medicine.
Whereas
traditional medicine uses specific intervention either medical or surgical to
deal with specific "causes" of disease, holistic medicine fights
disease by strengthening the body's natural defenses. The offending problem
then disappears as the system returns to homeostasis. This method has the
advantage of avoiding the side effects that may accompany traditional medical
treatment.
The
use of medical intuitive techniques allows one not only to evaluate the
patient's energy system but also to ascertain the specific problems that lead
to the loss of energy in the area. By placing my left hand over the body's chakras,
or energy systems I receive information about the human energy system that is
useful in both diagnosis and treatment. Rebalancing the energy through
techniques of energy medicine allows patients to recover more quickly not only
from surgery but from injury and illness. I also receive information on the
patient's willingness to release the energy for no healing can occur without
the patient's participation. We have seen or heard of patients
"willing" themselves to death in some instances despite the fact
there was little clinically wrong with them.
In
1996 I had the opportunity to study another clinical problem that was affecting
thousands of women. These women became ill with a progressive disease that
affected the immune system and the neurological system and improved after the
proper removal of the leaking or ruptured silicone gel implants. I became aware
that my own silicone implants were leaking in 1995, ten years after placement
which correlates with engineering data which shows leakage usually between 8
and 15 years. My symptoms which included local chest wall symptoms,
neurological symptoms, and weakening of the immune system, paralleled those
that I was seeing in hundreds of women coming to see me for explantation. In
fact, in 1996 with the deadline for removal of ruptured implants, I was too
busy to have my own implants removed until early '97. When I underwent surgery
in January of '97 both implants were leaking and postoperatively I experienced
an acute exacerbation of the silicone symptoms as the leaking silicone was
released into my body. My surgeons had not removed the capsules as was
recommended, so for several months I fought a progressive metabolic,
neuromuscular, and immunological collapse with my weight going down to 15
pounds below my normal body weight. I sought holistic modalities to stimulate
the immune system and detoxify the body from the silicone load released during
surgery. Within eight months, my immune system gradually improved with the
sinusitis I had developed during the last three years resolving and the
periodontal inflammation noted by my dentist only recently resolving 1 ½ years after explantation. I
still have some neurological symptoms but they are less now. I have used this
personal experience and the combined experience of over 250 patients with this
illness to develop a holistic protocol which used in combination with surgery
to remove the gross silicone from the body has been successful in many women
suffering from this illness. The more recalcitrant cases have all been in women
who have probably had leaking or ruptured implants for over ten years.
Why
has traditional medicine been enable to comprehend this illness? I believe it
is the same reason that traditional medicine cannot comprehend other energetic
disorders such as fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. These are diseases
of the energy system. Many of these illnesses result from accumulated toxins
that the body cannot effectively eliminate. Detoxification and enhancement of
the immune systems and endocrine systems are much more successful than are
standard muscle relaxants and anti-inflammatory agents prescribed by
traditional medicine. Through nutritional support, proper exercise, proper
stress reduction techniques and detoxification programs we see these conditions
improve.
I
believe that intuitive diagnosis and energy medicine are the future of
medicine. We will not only gain insight into the cause of injury and disease
but more effectively treat the disturbance in the energy system using more
energy based techniques than specific medications. Preventative medicine will
teach patients to become aware of their bodies and deal with stress before it
settles into the physical body.
As
Plato said: "The cure of many diseases is unknown to physicians. They are
ignorant of the whole which ought to be studied also. For the part can never be
well unless the whole is well. This is the great error of our day in the
treatment of the human body, that the physician separates the soul from the
body".
Isn't
it time we took Plato's words to heart and begin to treat the whole patient?
SPIRITUAL MEDICINE
Spiritual
medicine begins with a doctor or practitioner becoming more aware of energy
fields. Usually this is as a result of spiritual practices such as:
· Meditation
· Yoga
· Tai Chi
· Breath work
The
practitioner begins to sense his or her energy fields and only then can begin
to sense these fields in the patient.
As
the majority of other practitioners do not yet have this perceptual awareness,
and traditional medicine does not yet recognize energy fields, the
practitioners undergoing these shifts have few reference points. Each person's
awakening is different but there seems to be common elements. Most begin with a
desire to be more in silence, often out in nature. Radios are turned off and
the person avoids large crowds and noisy bars and restaurants. Music is soft
often without words. More and more time is spent in meditation or other
spiritual practices. Dietary changes occur away from alcohol, caffeine and red meat
as a result of preferences not abstinence. Spinning sensations are felt in
different parts of the body as the chakras or energy centers open up. Often
neurological symptoms such as tingling, heat, or jerking occur spontaneously.
Intense emotions including fear, anger and love rise up from within often with
no apparent connection to external reality.
Relationships
often change abruptly with the person sensing that they must leave a job or a
mate or both simultaneously. My own awakening occurred more quickly when a
clairvoyant came to my plastic surgery office with the book "Hands of
Light" and told me that I was a healer and needed to get started. When I
went into meditation I was told internally to quit my job. I did so and did not
work for the next five months but instead meditated 5-7 hours a day, began a
vegetarian diet and worked with a spiritual group several times a week in order
to develop spiritual sight and hearing.
Faith
is developed and tested as the person learns to walk "the razor's
edge", relying on intuition rather than logic or the advice of others.
Families are often alienated as they sense an abrupt change in the person and
resent their advice not being followed.
As
energy shifts occur the practitioner becomes more aware of their energy body,
especially of weak areas. By working in meditation with weak energy centers
many acute illnesses can be avoided. Whereas before the shift, I would suddenly
become ill with a viral infection, I now have a chance to work with a weak
"chakras" or energy systems and often can avoid the cold or flu. As
energy centers open up, one develops an ability to sense or feel things
intuitively. Other sources of clairvoyant information develop including
spiritual hearing or clairaudience and spiritual sight or clairvoyance. And
finally, the strongest intuitive information comes through an acute sense of
"knowing".
My
experience with this shift included having my car radio break 11 times within a
six month period so that when I was in the car I would hear internal lectures
on the spiritual causes of illness. Later I would read Carolyn Myss' and Dr.
Norm Shealy's book, "The Creation of Health" and have an interesting
confirmation of the information in these lectures.
My
beeper would go off and I would "see" the injury of the person
waiting for me in the emergency room or I would lay hands on a patient and see
the conflict or hear the name of the person with which they were in conflict.
Several of my patients must have thought I was a witch, considering how high they
jumped when I said a few words to them. But this is the core of spiritual
medicine. Conflict not previously resolved in the mental and emotional plane
can cause illness in the physical plane.
Spiritual
medicine acknowledges this and helps the patient see how conflict resolution is
crucial in order to get well quickly. As a hand surgeon, I have seen time and
again these principles in hand injuries. The thumb is involved in spiritual
will issues, the index finger in faith issues, the middle finger in self-love
issues and the ring finger in material and security issues including money and
the little finger in relationship and sex issues. If I can help my patients
recognize the connection and they are able consciously to work on these issues,
they recover faster and are less prone to re-injury.
So
how do we become ill?
Each
of us has a certain amount of "life force" energy. We can measure
this energy with devices that measure the aura. Without such devices we have to
rely on our intuitive senses. Often we can feel the energy around the person.
People with large bright auras make us feel better and people with dark auras
drain us.
Each
of us is given a "quanta" of energy, to use for "our daily
bread". How much we have at the end of the day depends on how we use it.
Life force energy can be stimulated by sunlight, exercise, meditation and vital
foods. Dr. Valerie Hunt has a videotape of a machine that measures auras,
recording the difference in the aura of a person eating vital food and eating
junk food. Anything or anybody we bring into our field has the capacity to
change our field. Meditation, yoga, and breath work very much increase the life
force as if we are tapping directly into the source of this energy. Any
creative activity also increases the energy flow into our field.
What
depletes us?
The
two most significant ways to waste energy is through judgment and defending
one's sense of self-importance. Certain types of foods, electromagnetic fields,
and addictions deplete the field. Addictions actually use up a certain amount
of etheric or life force energy with each "desire" created.
Addictions can be to a wide variety of things - food, drugs, sex, alcohol, body
image, and materialism. All addictions suppress spiritual growth by depleting
life force energy. All are serving the same purpose, to suppress some form of
emotional energy that should be allowed to surface and be released.
What
can we do to encourage such releases?
Any
activity that causes the release of negativity can infuse us with energy. These
include forgiveness, gratitude and praise, and praying for others. Healing
occurs when there is a large release of negativity rather than the suppression
of the energy. The healer helps the patient to transmute the energy.
Do
not hold onto old relationships. Energy determines relationships so that if a
relationship is not working, release it so that the energy can come back into
balance. Do not hold onto any particular relationship, allow change to occur
without fear. So many illnesses are related to us holding onto that which no
longer serves us. Old patterns of behavior, relationships that are not working,
and outdated patterns of thought. What causes us to hold on? Fear including
fear of loneliness, fear of separation, and fear of rejection. The hell we know
is better than the hell we don't know.
Healing
is transmuting that fear into faith. Faith that creation will provide us with
what we really need, not with what we think we need. Fear causes us to breath
shallowly and causes our life force to diminish.
Forgiveness
is a vast topic and one that is crucial to healing. For those of you working
with forgiveness issues, I highly recommend Dr. Michael Ryce's work "Why
is this Happening to me Again" including his No Fault Forgiveness
Worksheet. Forgiveness, as Michael teaches, is for the release of energy in us,
not for the person we are forgiving. The release of negative energy generated
by the onset of forgiveness can stimulate the immune system enough to reverse
diseases such as cancer.
Holistic
medicine uses techniques to stimulate the "field". Chiropractic,
acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, massage, homeopathy and other
holistic methods increase the energy field and thus the immune and endocrine
systems. Spiritual medicine adds to this releasing techniques of spiritual
healing, forgiveness work, past life regression, and hypnotherapy to aide in
the areas of weakness of the energy body. Spiritual practices such as
meditation, fasting, yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and breath work help to stimulate
and balance the energy body. Add to this intuitive diagnosis and you really
have lost the majority of the medical profession. But as we say at Millennium
Healthcare - the shift is on, the shift toward more compassionate and effective
healthcare. We are on the verge of an awakening. The institutions of medicine,
law and politics will only shift as those within these institutions wake up and
start to shake the belief systems. And as with any transformation, there will
be much "gnashing of teeth". But, as we move forward into the 21st
century, all we can say is "shift happens".
C7 – CHAKRAS
Humans
are children of the cosmos. All our organs correspond to energies fluctuating
in the cosmos. According ancient teachings subtle worlds of the cosmos create
our individual bodies. Like the Universe, our energetic system consists of
seven worlds, and has seven primary bodies (or auric layers) that interact with
each other. These bodies consist of the energy of the corresponding universal
worlds accordingly, deal with them, and receive the energetic information from
them.
Besides
the physical bodies, our individual energy system consist of ether, astral,
mental, karmic, intuitive, nirvana, and absolute subtle energetic bodies,
which form our aura - human energy field or bio-energy system. We call
energetic bodies subtle because it is difficult to perceive them with our
senses. Nevertheless, we can perceive them when specially trained and used
bio-energy methods and techniques.
All
subtle bodies in a human energy system communicate with each other, and with
the physical body, through the energetic "transformers"- chakras.
Chakras transform cosmic universal life-support energies into human energy
systems. In Sanskrit, the chakra is a wheel of life. Indian tradition considers
invisible chakras as centers of consciousness. All humans have chakras whether
we aware of them or not. Chakras are, in fact, centers of different levels of
consciousness, ranging from almost bodily to highly spiritual.
Healthy
chakras spin all the time bringing energy to the physical body and all its
energy layers. Chakras play a very important role in well-being and health.
Chakras are an important part of bio-energy systems. The locations and
functions of the major chakras are closely related to the endocrine system and
autonomic nervous system. The chakras are located on the spinal column, the
head, and one chakra is located in the heart plexus.
The
first chakra is Muladhara (the root chakra). It is located in the coccyx. The
color is red. This chakra represents the physical body and corresponds to it.
The
second chakra is Svadhisthana (the sacral chakra), and it is located in the
sacrum (lower abdomen). The color is orange. The chakra represents ether
energetic body (energetic matrix of the physical body) and corresponds to it.
The
third chakra, Manipura (the solar plexis chakra), is located on the fifth
lumbar (abdomen) vertebra. The color is yellow. It relates to the astral body.
It depends on emotional condition of the person and can change its form due to
personal conditions.
The
fourth chakra is Anahata (the heart chakra). It is located on the 5th thoracic
vertebra (chest). The color is green. It relates to the mental body (mind,
related to intellect).
The
fifth chakra is Vishuddha (the throat chakra). It is located on the first
thoracic vertebra, on the thyroid level (throat). The color is blue. It
connects to the karmic body (ego).
The
sixth chakra is Ajna (the third eye). It is located on the second cervical
vertebra(the forehead). The color is dark blue. It is connected to the
intuitive body ("superconsciousness", intuition). Ajna chakra is a
center of physical energy.
The
chakra of Nirvana is Central chakra. It is located on the heart plexus. The
color is violet. This is the link between our physical body and Nirvana
("World of Love").
The
seventh chakra is Sahasrara (the Crown Chakra). It is located on the top of the
head. The color is white. It is linked to Absolute body (the conclusion of the
development of all seven bodies of a cosmic organism). Sahasrara chakra is a
center of psychic energy, and the only chakra that follows its subtle body
Absolute in cosmic spheres after death. It is the center of psychic energy of
the human organism. Through Sahasrara chakra, we connect to the "Divine
Center".
Human
bodies of energy are complex structures as compared to the physical body. The
ether body lasts up to two inches over our physical body. During prenatal
development, the solid body of a fetus is constructed according to the matrix
of ether body, and it is its exact duplicate. During its life cycle, ether body
performs a function of a constructor, which builds and restores the solid body.
Healthy ether body differs by an accumulation of energy, which goes through the
solid body and influences its organs positively.
Many
researchers believe that the chakra of the physical plan - Muladhara - and
Svadhisthana belongs to the ether body. Certainly they are similar to each
other by their energetic functions as well. Muladhara plays a connecting role
between the center of the physical energy (Ajna-chakra) and the center of the psychic
energy. Muladhara-chakra absorbs important for physical body elecromagnetic
fields of the Earth. Svadhisthana, which produces internal energy, feeds by
prana or vital energy of the food matter, which it distributes to the organs of
the physical body and other energetic centers along energy pathways.
Interactions of Svadhisthana with other chakras determine the influence of food
intake on energetic manifestations (Manipura-chakra), sexuality
(Muladhara-chakra), and emotional spheres (Anahata-chakra).
The
astral body possesses extraordinary mobility and, depending on emotional state,
can accept different shapes and sizes. Movement in astral bodies in areas of
activity of the gravitational field of the Moon is possible if done under
supervision of experienced professional. The primary chakra of the astral body
is Manipura-chakra. This center accumulates and distributes energies which are
produced in other chakras. Through Manipura, energy and material of the astral
world are united.
The
mental body (mind, intellect) connects to our physical body by meridians
(energy pathways). It is the strongest body among others. If intellect is high
in its development, then the mental body is developed perfectly. We use the
mental bodies in our actions, behaviors, and thoughts.
Karmic
body is a ruler of our ego. All events, their reasons, and all of the
unconscious traits of past lives that determine individual's being and destiny,
are kept in the karmic body (karma). Karmic body rules all functions of a
cosmic organism. It connects to the karmic world by the Vishuddha chakra.
Intuitive
body contacts to the intuitive world by Ajna-chakra (the third eye), which can
be a source of intuitive insight and superconsciousness (unconscious sphere of
consciousness). Intuitive body develops more or less in all people. Many people
have experienced moments when their intuition yelded the most intelligent
decision at unexpected times. Besides controlling vision of the past, the
intuitive body directs the future.
The
chakra of Nirvana body -Central chakra- is a connection between a physical body
and Nirvana body through the heart. A peak of our soul is a body of Nirvana,
which acts as fusion of our ego and the Universe, and union of Truth and Love.
And
the last body - Absolute body - is a consequence of the development of all
bodies of a cosmic organism. If a human life is improved due to karma, so the
Sahasrara-chakra regulates human behavior in according to changed expectations
of life.
Chakras' Performance
The
human organism, its functioning, and the condition of its subtle bodies depends
on the chakras' work, or spinning. When the chakras are spinning effectively,
they bring balanced functioning to the organism, a free-flowing of energies,
and harmony between consciousness and subconsciousness and between inner and
outer worlds as well.
Chakras
show patterns of electromagnetic activity. When all chakras work properly
(spinning not too slow or too fast), a physical organism is in perfect health
and powerful energetic shape. When the chakra is opened and functional, it can
perform its work perfectly, process prana energy, bring energy to the physical
organs and subtle bodies, and remove used stale or stagnant energy from the
system.
When
the chakra is closed or blocked, it stops spinning and becomes dysfunctional.
Chakras may become closed when they are congested with stale or stagnant
energy. One way they can close is during an instance of fight-or-flight
response of the organism. This response is a natural way for the organism to become
alert and prepared to any danger or unusual situation. However, if this
stressful condition of the body is left uncontrolled and continues for a long
time, the chakras may stay closed and dysfunctional. When the physical body
stays in prolonged stress (distress) or depression, the chakras cannot spin and
work properly; they become unbalanced, blocked with stale and stagnant energy
and unbalanced.
Our
thoughts and attitudes can block energy flowing through the chakras as well.
Unexpressed emotions can cause the chakras to be overcharged, leading to their
closing or blockage. Personality problems both cause and are caused by energy
imbalances. Imbalances in the chakra system of the physical body reveal
themselves through both negative personality and physical illness:
dysfunctional chakras cause imbalances in the subtle energetic bodies, and
imbalances in the subtle bodies then manifest in personal, psychological and
emotional problems.
When
chakras are closed, energy cannot be transformed and released to the physical
body. If energy is not flowing freely through energetic systems, physical
problems may develop in specific areas, and discomfort or illness can occur in
the organism. When a chakra is blocked, it needs healing by uncovering and
removing whatever is blocking it. The clearing of congested energy from the
human energy system becomes a necessary prophylactic way for keeping the
organism healthy.
Because
the chakras work together as a system, a block in the functioning of one chakra
may affect the activity of another. These chakras are especially inter-related:
(a) the root chakra and the third eye tie, (b) the sacral chakra and throat
chakra, and (c) the solar plexus chakra and heart chakra. If one chakra is not
functioning, it must be cleansed, balanced, normalized, and healed together
with the associate chakra accordingly.
Chakras
are interrelated not only with parasympathetic and sympathetic autonomous
nervous systems, but endocrine systems as well. Chakras transform vital energy
to the endocrine glands. The root chakra (Muladhara) correlates to the
testicles, the sacral chakra (Svadhisthana) - the ovaries, the solar plexus
chakra (Manipura) - the adrenals and pancreas, the heart chakra (Anahata) - the
thymus, the throat chakra (Vishuddha) - the thyroid and parathyroid, the third
eye chakra (Ajna) - the pineal gland, and the crown chakra (Sahasrara) - the
pituitary (master) gland. Chakras feed the life-force into our endocrine
systems, which regulates our hormonal balance.
During
our many years as healers, we have observed that healthy chakras spin in a
clockwise direction and in the same way in both sexes, whereas closed,
unbalanced chakras spin in a counterclockwise direction, stay still, spin in
eclipses or move unevenly. The energy balance of the bio-energy system, which
is very important to our general well-being and health, can be achieved by
energy that is in a constant smooth flow, refreshed and vitalized, aided by
constantly spinning chakras...

sacrum (lower abdomen). The color is orange. The chakra represents ether
energetic body (energetic matrix of the physical body) and corresponds to it.
The
third chakra, Manipura (the solar plexis chakra), is located on the fifth
lumbar (abdomen) vertebra. The color is yellow. It relates to the astral body.
It depends on emotional condition of the person and can change its form due to
personal conditions.
The
fourth chakra is Anahata (the heart chakra). It is located on the 5th thoracic
vertebra (chest). The color is green. It relates to the mental body (mind,
related to intellect).
The
fifth chakra is Vishuddha (the throat chakra). It is located on the first
thoracic vertebra, on the thyroid level (throat). The color is blue. It
connects to the karmic body (ego).
The
sixth chakra is Ajna (the third eye). It is located on the second cervical
vertebra(the forehead). The color is dark blue. It is connected to the
intuitive body ("superconsciousness", intuition). Ajna chakra is a
center of physical energy.
The
chakra of Nirvana is Central chakra. It is located on the heart plexus. The
color is violet. This is the link between our physical body and Nirvana
("World of Love").
The
seventh chakra is Sahasrara (the Crown Chakra). It is located on the top of the
head. The color is white. It is linked to Absolute body (the conclusion of the
development of all seven bodies of a cosmic organism). Sahasrara chakra is a
center of psychic energy, and the only chakra that follows its subtle body
Absolute in cosmic spheres after death. It is the center of psychic energy of
the human organism. Through Sahasrara chakra, we connect to the "Divine
Center".
Human
bodies of energy are complex structures as compared to the physical body. The
ether body lasts up to two inches over our physical body. During prenatal
development, the solid body of a fetus is constructed according to the matrix
of ether body, and it is its exact duplicate. During its life cycle, ether body
performs a function of a constructor, which builds and restores the solid body.
Healthy ether body differs by an accumulation of energy, which goes through the
solid body and influences its organs positively.
Many
researchers believe that the chakra of the physical plan - Muladhara - and
Svadhisthana belongs to the ether body. Certainly they are similar to each
other by their energetic functions as well. Muladhara plays a connecting role
between the center of the physical energy (Ajna-chakra) and the center of the psychic
energy. Muladhara-chakra absorbs important for physical body elecromagnetic
fields of the Earth. Svadhisthana, which produces internal energy, feeds by
prana or vital energy of the food matter, which it distributes to the organs of
the physical body and other energetic centers along energy pathways.
Interactions of Svadhisthana with other chakras determine the influence of food
intake on energetic manifestations (Manipura-chakra), sexuality
(Muladhara-chakra), and emotional spheres (Anahata-chakra).
The
astral body possesses extraordinary mobility and, depending on emotional state,
can accept different shapes and sizes. Movement in astral bodies in areas of
activity of the gravitational field of the Moon is possible if done under
supervision of experienced professional. The primary chakra of the astral body
is Manipura-chakra. This center accumulates and distributes energies which are
produced in other chakras. Through Manipura, energy and material of the astral
world are united.
The
mental body (mind, intellect) connects to our physical body by meridians
(energy pathways). It is the strongest body among others. If intellect is high
in its development, then the mental body is developed perfectly. We use the
mental bodies in our actions, behaviors, and thoughts.
Karmic
body is a ruler of our ego. All events, their reasons, and all of the
unconscious traits of past lives that determine individual's being and destiny,
are kept in the karmic body (karma). Karmic body rules all functions of a
cosmic organism. It connects to the karmic world by the Vishuddha chakra.
Intuitive
body contacts to the intuitive world by Ajna-chakra (the third eye), which can
be a source of intuitive insight and superconsciousness (unconscious sphere of
consciousness). Intuitive body develops more or less in all people. Many people
have experienced moments when their intuition yelded the most intelligent
decision at unexpected times. Besides controlling vision of the past, the
intuitive body directs the future.
The
chakra of Nirvana body -Central chakra- is a connection between a physical body
and Nirvana body through the heart. A peak of our soul is a body of Nirvana,
which acts as fusion of our ego and the Universe, and union of Truth and Love.
And
the last body - Absolute body - is a consequence of the development of all
bodies of a cosmic organism. If a human life is improved due to karma, so the
Sahasrara-chakra regulates human behavior in according to changed expectations
of life.
Chakras' Performance
The
human organism, its functioning, and the condition of its subtle bodies depends
on the chakras' work, or spinning. When the chakras are spinning effectively,
they bring balanced functioning to the organism, a free-flowing of energies,
and harmony between consciousness and subconsciousness and between inner and
outer worlds as well.
Chakras
show patterns of electromagnetic activity. When all chakras work properly
(spinning not too slow or too fast), a physical organism is in perfect health
and powerful energetic shape. When the chakra is opened and functional, it can
perform its work perfectly, process prana energy, bring energy to the physical
organs and subtle bodies, and remove used stale or stagnant energy from the
system.
When
the chakra is closed or blocked, it stops spinning and becomes dysfunctional.
Chakras may become closed when they are congested with stale or stagnant
energy. One way they can close is during an instance of fight-or-flight
response of the organism. This response is a natural way for the organism to become
alert and prepared to any danger or unusual situation. However, if this
stressful condition of the body is left uncontrolled and continues for a long
time, the chakras may stay closed and dysfunctional. When the physical body
stays in prolonged stress (distress) or depression, the chakras cannot spin and
work properly; they become unbalanced, blocked with stale and stagnant energy
and unbalanced.
Our
thoughts and attitudes can block energy flowing through the chakras as well.
Unexpressed emotions can cause the chakras to be overcharged, leading to their
closing or blockage. Personality problems both cause and are caused by energy
imbalances. Imbalances in the chakra system of the physical body reveal
themselves through both negative personality and physical illness:
dysfunctional chakras cause imbalances in the subtle energetic bodies, and
imbalances in the subtle bodies then manifest in personal, psychological and
emotional problems.
When
chakras are closed, energy cannot be transformed and released to the physical
body. If energy is not flowing freely through energetic systems, physical
problems may develop in specific areas, and discomfort or illness can occur in
the organism. When a chakra is blocked, it needs healing by uncovering and
removing whatever is blocking it. The clearing of congested energy from the
human energy system becomes a necessary prophylactic way for keeping the
organism healthy.
Because
the chakras work together as a system, a block in the functioning of one chakra
may affect the activity of another. These chakras are especially inter-related:
(a) the root chakra and the third eye tie, (b) the sacral chakra and throat
chakra, and (c) the solar plexus chakra and heart chakra. If one chakra is not
functioning, it must be cleansed, balanced, normalized, and healed together
with the associate chakra accordingly.
Chakras
are interrelated not only with parasympathetic and sympathetic autonomous
nervous systems, but endocrine systems as well. Chakras transform vital energy
to the endocrine glands. The root chakra (Muladhara) correlates to the
testicles, the sacral chakra (Svadhisthana) - the ovaries, the solar plexus
chakra (Manipura) - the adrenals and pancreas, the heart chakra (Anahata) - the
thymus, the throat chakra (Vishuddha) - the thyroid and parathyroid, the third
eye chakra (Ajna) - the pineal gland, and the crown chakra (Sahasrara) - the
pituitary (master) gland. Chakras feed the life-force into our endocrine
systems, which regulates our hormonal balance.
During
our many years as healers, we have observed that healthy chakras spin in a
clockwise direction and in the same way in both sexes, whereas closed,
unbalanced chakras spin in a counterclockwise direction, stay still, spin in
eclipses or move unevenly. The energy balance of the bio-energy system, which
is very important to our general well-being and health, can be achieved by
energy that is in a constant smooth flow, refreshed and vitalized, aided by
constantly spinning chakras...
