The Golden Spiral

Chapter Thirteen
About the Healing Process

Energy follows thought, thought in it's turn follows the mind. The mind then follows it's five fold-faculties called mind-stuff, intellect, memory, I-consciousness, Supreme or cosmic consciousness and nature/ illusion.
The Self or the observer
is the pilot for all these. This eternal Self follows time and space. Time and
space follow chaos and order and chaos and order follow existence. Existence has
to follow nothing, but simply be.

A healer is someone who has learned to access and direct a portion of this energy at will. But many healers are confused about how the process of healing works. In other words, a healer is a facilitator and not an active partner in any session of healing at all. Healers who do vibrational healing work believe they are “flowing energy” to the recipient or working through their so called “Powers,” or being in a state of mind which is “Higher” than the recipient and that the recipient’s receipt of the healer’s energy is what is causing their recovery. But this is not happening at all. The healer is often acting somewhat like a placebo.
There is no way a healer can ever involve or entangle to the aspects that have manifested as an abnormality in the vibrations of the person or creature being healed. Even situations can be healed without the actual intention of a greater mass of people being coaxed or changed to do anything, just normal loving allowance of nature and its laws help this kind of healing.
The healer’s presence makes it comfortable for the recipient to allow his/her source energy to flow. This is the reason why the energy transmitted to another from the same healer feels different to every person. Healers sometimes explain this by saying that the same energy feels different to each individual recipient because each recipient has a different energy structure, and is blocked in different ways.
Therefore, the energy will flow to different places and do different things. Or, that each recipient needs different energy from the healer. But really, it is the recipient who is directing the flow of energy to himself and it feels different because the recipient is creating or attracting different energy streams depending upon his or her individual needs.
The recipient is only uncomfortable because he/she is disallowing the flow of energy from his/her energy field which surrounds the body. The recipient is pushing against the natural flow of balanced energy, blocking it. In other words a session of healing can also mean alignment of chakras, which can be seven major and six minor or all thirteen considered to be major charkas that correspond to the thirteen dimensions which would be discussed later on in this chapter.
There are various methods to align these thirteen charkas depending on the actual state of consciousness/evolutionary state of the seeker. Once the alignment process starts, the healer and recipient are fully responsible to act in accordance with the laws of nature. Never can one attempt to disturb the flow of nature’s laws in such alignment process otherwise sometimes the outcome could be detrimental for both healer and recipient.
In Spandana mudra healing however, the healer has five choices to perform alignment of charkas to just be a “Facilitator” and not act as a doctor would do with the help of gadgets, medicines, laboratory experiments, etc. The first of these five methods deals with absolutely no body contact between the two. It deals with distance healing, with pure intent and natural flow and connection being made between the healer and recipient and under the strict vigil of all the great healing masters and the universe itself.
There is no scope for error here on the part of both healer and recipient as otherwise the chances of astral energies may affect both of their systems and Aura (to be briefly discussed later on in this chapter) is highly possible.
The second method is to hold the recipient’s hand/palm facing downward and both of the healer’s hands covering one palm between them. (Preferably the right hand of the recipient, if a naturally right handed person.) In this method, the merging of the Astral bodies of the two is evident and there has to be a fairly good understanding of the art and intention of both here, while doing this kind of charka alignment for the recipient.
Normally one would think that since healer is the facilitator his/her charkas would be perfectly in alignment for him/her to perform this type of healing sessions. It is not true, in a case of such vibrational healing both healer and recipient are equally being benefited at different levels. Normal process involves some kind of chants (Mostly internalized and not uttered aloud by the healer), and silent observation on the part of the recipient, without holding on to their fears and conditioned mind are key factors here.
The chants could be any vedic chant or any sacred chant that resonates well with both and allows no semblance of doubt in both the minds for them to merge as one being. The healer feels the energy coming through his body and hands, so the healer thinks that this energy, flowing through her/him is the same energy flowing to the recipient. But while the healer may be directing energy to the recipient, it is the recipient who is attracting or inviting his/her own energy stream via a change of vibration, which the healer, by his/her presence, has enabled.
Thus, the recipient is completely in charge of the healing process, no matter what the healer is doing! Instead what a good and reasonable sensible healer will do is to provide “loving allowance” to the recipient and be a compassionate facilitator, yet remain dispassionate about their actual feelings.
The third method used to do a more thorough vibrational healing through spandana. It is based on the major seven charkas present in the physical body which is clearly “Understood” by both the healer and recipient over a period of time. Interacting with each other and analyzing in an unbiased way what the actual need of the recipient and whether that need does not stem from “Greed” on either side allows both of them to make indigenous decisions to continue, withdraw, stop for short intervals, or even completely disconnect from each other without any duress.
Starting from the Crown charka the healing sessions involve only three major points for sending in the healing energies. These are through the crown, third eye, and solar plexus area of the recipient by making the recipient lay down on the floor and the healer sitting beside to place the two palms simultaneously over these charkas and allowing the alignment to take place naturally over a period of 30-60 minutes. This is depending on the actual density of the charkas and following an inner guidance on the part of both recipient and healer.
If the recipient gets better by this method, there is no need to go any further than this and it is a clear indication that the recipient is open to the healing energies and is able to facilitate the energy by self, even though the healer provides the natural balance in the person whose charkas are being aligned. This type of alignment would generally bring out many old issues in both the healer and recipient, and should be handled with care and compassion and in an unbiased way. If any need arises, then a short gap in such alignment can be worthwhile.
The amazing thing is that the recipient through a personal change in vibration brought about by the presence of the healer may be attracting energy completely different from the energy the healer is directing! Healers should understand this, because it is often the reason for “failed” healings. For example, a very effective healer may get a recipient who does not respond to treatment.
This causes a healer to sometimes feel disappointment, or in extreme cases even a lack of confidence. But what is happening is that the recipient is not willing to accept the change in vibration that is being effected by the presence of the healer. The healer is doing his/her job; it is the recipient who is not allowing the vibrational change necessary to unblock his or her energy stream.
This is no fault of the healer (or the recipient for that matter). It is important for both healer and recipient to understand the mechanics behind the healing process, so that both can remain empowered throughout the healing cycle. The Healer must always remember to stick to his or her affirmations and must make each point absolutely clear to the recipient before each session of the healing process.
If for any reason the recipient is not able to understand the principles behind the process, the healer must feel responsibly to educate the recipient in terms better understood by the recipient and not in complicated energy healing language. The healer has to bear in mind that there is always going to be scope for improvement in skills such as vibrational healing technique.
No one can create in the experience of another, because each being is sovereign, creating his or her own world from within. Our thoughts create our realities and our illusions as well. Although energy may flow to a recipient from a healer, only the recipient can allow it. Of course by attending a healing session, a recipient has already given the healer permission to work with his or her energy. And equally true, the energy of both healer and recipient are intermingling.
But the nuts and bolts of how energy is transmitted from healer and received by recipient are all about how the recipient allows energy to flow into his or her energy field and body. The recipient will improve to the degree that he or she gives permission regardless what the healer does. If the recipient has the idea that the healer’s energy is responsible for physical improvement, it can lead to dependency and disempowerment. It is important to explain to the recipient that he/she alone determines the nature of the healing process.
The recipient can invite/allow the natural energy transfer that is necessary for health from his own energy field, without the necessity for the healer’s presence at all. This is something that should be made absolutely clear to each recipient. Of course, almost all recipients will probably elect to receive treatment even with this knowledge, but treatment will be more effective if the recipient feels empowered. And if treatment is more effective the healer will find more satisfaction that his/her work has been well received and appreciated as well.
Sometimes when a healer thinks he or she is “flowing energy” to the recipient and that the healer’s energy is responsible for a recipient’s improved condition, egos can expand. “My energy is more powerful than yours. My recipients say they like my energy best.” Both healer and recipient should be clear about the process; the healer provides an opportunity for the fully-empowered recipient to allow his/her own betterment.
The fourth method is outlined in the form of a meditation the recipient can get fully involved into with constant help coming from the healer by means of associating his/her chakras. (Thirteen)
Often in
healing methods we use the word Recipient instead of Recipient to make the
person more comfortable and treat him/her with equality and not as a person who
is ‘Inferior’. Hence we never use the word Recipient, unlike as in Medical
sciences. Anyway, we will use the term Recipient if you like.
