THE HEALING TOUCH -- PART THREE

Humanity must realise that illness is an evolutionary lesson. It is not something to be scorned, to be pushed under the carpet and ignored. There is always purpose in illness.

Acts of Evolution

There is always purpose in disease. They are essential parts of Humanity´s evolutionary pattern. They are acts of evolution. It is essential that both the healer and the person to be healed recognise this fact. Inevitably education must come before healing. The role of the healer is not just to channel energy but is to hold a mirror. It is to stand before the person and to enable them to see why they are ill. The person who is ill must then take action, after consultation with the healer, to ensure that the lesson of that illness, that dis-ease within the body, has been understood.

Choosing Whom to Heal

In the World in which you live today, where so many are sick, inevitably the healer will have to choose who to heal. You cannot heal everyone. It is not desirable, or even physically possible, for you as healers to continually channel the healing energy that flows through you. You cannot always be healing. You must keep your physical body in balance. You must respect the nature of your being. Therefore you must choose those who you are to heal. You must select those who will benefit from your healing touch. This inevitably comes down to a feeling within you, to the intuitive force of your being listening and responding to the people who come to you.

Intuitively you will know those who you can help and heal. Recognise that there are different healers for different illnesses. Only the great Masters such as the Master Jesus can heal universally. Only they have the cosmic healing touch, the power to raise from the dead. Such power belongs only to those who understand the purpose of creation, and above all, who recognise the workings of the Law of Karma.

Potential to be Healers

Many people in your World today are beginning to feel that they have the potential to be healers. Many are discovering that they are succeeding where the medical profession is failing. There is no longer a clear division between, shall we say, the doctor and the faith healer. People are beginning to recognise that anyone can heal once they have an understanding of the purpose of life and the true nature of disease.

Indeed, the role of the healer will once more return to the "priest", to the divinely motivated and spiritually grounded person, as was the case in the days of old. Jesus was both a priest and a healer and that is the ideal to which you should all aim. A true healer shoulders great responsibility, for to heal without reason or purpose is to question the nature of dis-ease and the reason for karma.

Detachment

It is distressing to see people suffering but the healer must not allow himself or herself to be dragged down by that suffering. The essential quality of any healer, therefore, is detachment. If you are not detached you cannot heal or, rather, you cannot heal to the best of your ability. The healer must always view the patient with detachment: compassion, yes, but always with detachment. The healer must see clearly as he or she looks into their patient´s eyes the nature of their soul being. The healer must see clearly the source of their disease, the nature of their inner being, and should always strive to heal not just the outer disease but the inner cause. It is the wise healer that looks first to the cause and then to the disease.

Divinity of Body and Soul

In an Age which is witnessing so many new beginnings, do not be afraid to try to heal. In as much as you are all divine instruments and you align yoursleves with the healing flow of the Cosmos you are fulfilling the true purpose of your beings. Many new techniques of healing will soon be discovered and the ways of the old will gradually begin to disappear. They will be regarded as outdated by the people of the New Age.

Now that is not to say that all medicine in the World today is wrong, that all surgery is unnecessary, for it has shown that it is capable of great acts of healing in many fields. Nevertheless, the main stream of medicine today has become detached from the divinity of life. It does not recognise the source of life. It does not recognise the divinity of the human body or of the soul that dwells within it. For a true healer, that must always come first.

Path of Human Destiny

I would ask those of you who are thinking of becoming healers to consider carefully. There can be no greater role in life. All the great Masters who have walked the physical plane of life have been healers. They have been healers because the World has always been sick. The World has always been in dis-ease, has always been divided. That is the path of human destiny.

While Humanity has choice, while there is goodness and evil, inevitably some will choose evil. Some will choose the learning process of illness and disease, and to those I would say, greet that illness just as you would greet health. Recognise that you are carrying forward not just your evolution but the evolution of the whole human race.

THE HEALING TOUCH -- PART TWO

We live in an Age when more than ever before people are beginning to search for and experiment with forms of treatment neither recognised nor accepted by the medical profession.

Divinity of the Physical Body

A growing number of people are using forms of treatment which recognise the divinity of the physical body and, above all, which regard themselves as instruments of healing. Now that is not to say that there are not surgeons and doctors who do not regard the human body as a divine creation and try to attune to it when they operate and try to heal. There are some who do this, but one only has to look at the nature of many surgical operations today to see that for many surgery has become an intellectual exercise devoid of feeling, a game of physical skill played at the expense of the human body with its only objective to fulfil the will of the surgeon or the doctor.

Compare this with those who heal through the healing touch, through the laying on of hands, through the invocation of higher energies, through prayer and absent healing. Here you will see a recognition of the part that the Divinity plays in the healing process, an acceptance of the fact that every individual is a channel of divine energy.

The Nature of Healing

It is essential, therefore, for those who heal through the healing touch that they ensure that the person who is being healed is aware of the part that the Divinity plays in the healing process. For the patient to lie in front of the healer and to expect the healer to heal them is no better than the patient lying on the operating table and expecting the surgeon´s knife to work a miracle. The patient must understand what is the nature of healing and, above all, the responsibilities inherent in healing. The patient must realise that healing energy has to be invoked and that there has to be a "flow" of energy to them through the healing touch. They should always be conscious of, and invoke, that energy.

Transference of Energy

Healing is not just a process of one person giving energy to another. Rather it is the process of one person acting as a channel to another, of positive energy to negative receptivity. There has to be a transference of energy for the healing to take place. This is the point of the story in the Bible of the woman in the crowd who touched the hem of Jesus´s cloak as he passed by and was subsequetly healed. Both felt the transference of energy but it was the woman´s faith in the power of that Master and her invocation of the healing energy that created the flow and resulted in her being healed.

The Healing Source

In the World today, where the Divinity is hardly ever recognised, the essential role of the healer is to teach as well as to heal. The healer should teach the patient as to the source of the healing energy, which is the Creator of all life. Therefore every act of healing should be seen as an act of worship. Every healer should demonstrate the fact that they are simply channels for that divine energy and that it is the source of the nergy that should be invoked and thanked, not the healer. It should be made clear that the healing process is initiated from the higher planes, not from the physical plane of life.

Not Always Granted

It must always be clearly understood that the Divinity, knowing the destiny of Humanity and the cause of an individual´s disease, does not always heal. Some people expect that if they go down on their knees and ask for healing that they will always be healed and, what is more, in the way that they expect. It must be clearly understood that the Lords of Karma, the great beings who control and maintain the balance of human life and creativity on the Earth, judge without emotion. They see only the spiritual reality of what an individual has created and, therefore, what that individual must attract back to himself or herself. It is the nature and destiny of some people to be ill. That must be recognised.

THE HEALING TOUCH -- PART ONE

Although we live in a World of great technological achievement, a World where Science, Humanity´s Science, is indeed becoming a god, few people today really understand the true nature of disease or recognise the divinity of the human body, the nature and effect of Healing, its source and its energy.



The Nature of Disease

Many people are on the healing vibration, but before we can consider the nature of healing and the healing techniques that are present on the Earth today we must first look at the nature of disease, that which necessitates healing. Most people today regard disease as the visitation on a healthy body by a foreign object. Disease is considered to be an invasion from outside the body and, as such, can be healed in a similar fashion.

In the World today few people understand that every illness is self-created and that the seeds of any illness always lie within the human body. The medical profession today, with its practice of treating the symptoms and not the cause of disease, tends to support the view that illness can best be treated from outside the body and then only by qualified practitioners. As a result of this attitude the individual´s responsibility for health at this time has perhaps never been lower.


A Magnetic Being

You must understand a disease before you can heal it. You must recognise that every human being is a magnetic being, a being capable of attracting unto itself according to the nature of its own creations in thought, word and deed. The note that you send out, the vibrations that you emanate, come back to you no matter the level of life on which you dwell.

You have within you a magnetic power with the potential for good or for evil. It is the note which you sound that attracts the corresponding vibrations of the Cosmos to you, there being in the Cosmos an equal potential for good and for evil. It is how you choose to use that cosmic power that brings about evolution. According to the way you live your life so you attract into your being the corresponding vibrations of the Cosmos and these affect the various elements within your body which can lead to disease.


Creations of the Mind

If you take something that is so prevalant in the World today, the smoking of cigarettes and the disease associated with it, it is easy to see how the one action leads to the others. However, many diseases in your World today are what you would call psychosomatic and are created on a different level: they are the creations of the mind and are not solely the result of physical actions. Such diseases are created in the first place by the individual on the higher levels of life and then manifest later on the physical level. Any person with the necessary psychic powers can see an illness on the higher levels before it manifests on the physical plane of life.


Taking Responsibility

Humanity has to learn that it must take responsibility for everything that it creates within the divinity of its body. Every disease, every illness, including the disease of cancer, is self-originating. It is created by the individual human being. The fact that you have plagues or epidemics when a large number of people die from a certain disease merely represents the collective thought forms, the collective energies and consciousness of the people in that society. A healthy body can resist any plague, any illness. Disease, therefore, in the broadest sense can be seen as being karmic. That which you have sown you attract unto yourselves.


The Medical Profession

As we look at the nature of healing it is essential that you remember the source of disease. The medical profession today with its allopathic medicine and surgical practices does not encourage sick people to be responsible for their own healing. Moreover, for the most part, sick people offer their bodies to the doctors and the surgeons and allow themselves to be drugged and operated upon without questioning what is the short term or the long term effects of a drug or an operation. They expect the doctors and the surgeons to be god, to remove the disease in their body and to restore them to perfect health.

In the medical profession today there is scant regard for the divinity of life and for the wholeness or holiness of the physical body. For the most part, the doctor is not concerned either in discovering the cause of a disease or in educating the person that suffers from a disease as to how to prevent it in the future. Disease is seen simply as a foreign body to be removed as quickly as possible and the patient to be allowed to return to his or her fomer lifestyle afterwards.
