HEALING APPROACHES

Clearly there are varied and wide issues touched on, but I'd like to jump back to something mentioned earlier on whether it is possible to see - or photograph if you're lucky! - things which are on someone's mind and perhaps rejected, or which are affecting them in some way without their knowing.

Once-upon-a-time I had more books on auras and chakras, planes of existence and so on, but lack of space meant some had to go, and this was in accordance with what seemed a growing disenchantment about some things on my part. A lot of books on reincarnation and past lives went too because I felt I could remember the main themes and needed the space.

One small book by Choa Kok Sui entitled 'Pranic Psychotherapy' came forward again recently, and caught my attention because it is concise and 'meaningful'. On p.7 is a sketch of how a chakra or aura might look when the person is under stress, or when there are 'negative elementals' or 'cracks' or 'holes'. All these look pretty small and as if they are not too difficult to handle, whereas some books on negative/dark entities and possession imply that most of our problems are caused by something horrendous or complicated. That could be so, but it helps to start somewhere. Choa Kok Sui says from p.5:

'When a person has had a traumatic experience, the traumatic psychic energies produced are lodged in several chakras or energy centers which may in the long run manifest as stress or phobia. These traumatic energies have certain degrees of consciousness and are called traumatic thought entities. . . In more serious cases, some of the protective webs are punctured and have big holes. This makes the patient susceptible to 'psychic disturbances' or 'intrusions' by negative psychic entities or elementals. In Christian terms, these are called bad spirits. . . These negative elementals are about one-third of an inch to several inches in size. . . they are actually quite weak and can easily be destroyed by experienced pranic healers. . . by an act of will of the healer, the use of violet pranic energy, or by throwing them into a water and salt solution.'

The author suggests simple meditations to practise, and making sure one takes a rest or holiday! Obviously there is much more behind it and he draws from various spiritual traditions and many years' experience as a healer of both physical and psychological problems.
