Love: Food for the Soul!

"Love is the food that will make your Soul grow. By Loving deeply, you may become One with your beloved and One with all."
—Grand Master Choa Kok Sui


Maybe what he is telling me this morning is that it is okay to fall in love with someone else and that will make my marriage stronger?? I don't get it, but this Master keeps me on my toes as I struggle to read between the lines...

Maybe he is saying, as a healer, I will become One with God, and then what does it matter who I am married to? If we are all One, we are all married? Sounds rather like an orgy, but I will keep going with my theories...

Maybe he means love deeply and not ask for anything back... Now, I am the Queen of doing that, that is why my marriage is in the mess it is in, and all the men I meet fall in love with me...

Thank you, Master! I'll keep reading between the lines and keep guessing...

Blessings be to all the beloveds of the world, all the lonely people searching for love, all the broken hearts... We are all One!

Love,
Jhilmil

Inner Beauty vs Outer Beauty

Today Master says to me:
"Inner Beauty is more important than external beauty."

I agree with Master 100%. As I told my dearest friend last week, as I went with her to the plastic surgeon's office, just meditate, stay happy, and you will look 10 years younger... She of course, thinks that is nonsense, and proceeded to take out her cheque book, spend a large amount of money, and got a new face...

But what about a new soul? She always finds the glass half empty, and always sees the dark clouds behind the rainshower. Won't the wrinkles and frown and discontented look come back sooner rather than later?

And me. As I dressed last night to go out dancing with my husband, I found my face glowing with youth and beauty! I have never used as little make up as I did last night to go to a night club... Because the inner beauty is shining through. Because my dependance on cosmetics is getting less. Because God's light surrounds me.

Inner Beauty. Vital, yes! But, also for us mortals, External Beauty is important. Whether it be lipstick and kaajal, pranic facelifts, attitudinal changes, or expensive trips to the plastic surgeon... most of us care how we look on the outside.

Your choice on the make up of choice. Make Up or Glowing Aura. Medication or Meditation.

What do you think???

My Passions in Healing...

Dear fellow pranic healers,

Do you have a passion for healing some particular kind of ailment? Or people? I know, as senior healers and meditators, we heal all those we come in contact with... but everyone has favourites... Like my yoga teacher's passion is the back. And with his blend of meditative yoga, he is able to manage and heal back pain 100%.

My two passions are depression and sports healing. I can spot these two a kilometer away and just get drawn to these kinds of people. Like I cannot help but talk with the most depressed people or the most undepressed (sportstars and athletes). One deplete me and the other energise me. And I feel this is the perfect balance...

Who do you like to heal? Write in and share with me... I am all yours!

My Top Five Reasons To Be In Pranic Healing!

1. when I heal, I forget my pain
2. I love the magic of people feeling better
3. I love the love and blessings they send me (do not accept money)
4. I love the science behind it... as a techie, I also needed the hard core understanding
5. Love the understanding I have of chakras, disease, food, yoga, ayurveda... basically I understand disease, its psychological roots, and then, how to cure it.

What are your top five reasons?

Love,

A Day In Life: My Teaching Journey...

Dear Fellow Pranic Healers and Friends:

Sat/Sun 25/26 August Weekend:  I had blocked this weekend to assist in the Basic Pranic Healing Course at the PHFD.  Sadly, Sat 25 came and went, and my feet were not moving me to the Shanti Niketan area!  Like I had dveloped amnesia or "drivers" block... So I missed interacting and assisting Rahul Kohli, one of the best teachers Pranic Healing India has!  My loss, definitely.  These days whenever something happens, that I cannot understand, I open to that page of my GMCKS calendar... so that is what I did!

Day 25
The Spiritual Path is more complicated than the Amazon.  The Guru has already been through the "forest".  Follow the guidance of the Teacher to avoid getting hurt.

Cool!  Okay, Master!

So when Sun 26 came, and my list of to-do items loomed long and large at me, I decided to ignore all the to-do list items!  I went straight to the PHFD.  At the worst, I would "waste" time until lunch and then attack my to-do items of L-I-F-E....

I walked into the Shanti Niketan PHFD at 9:45 am.  Like a beacon of white, Vishnu was chatting with his class, Mr Puri was bustling around like a proud mother hen...  There were 10 new basic healers in training...  I smiled at everyone and sat down, expecting to yawn through the morning...  after all, what could I, an experienced (?!!!) pranic healer learn from all these people???

5:45 pm.  Where did my Sunday go?  Laughing, Learning & Teaching.  Playing, Being Devotional, Respectful to the Guru (Vishnu, in this case).  Learning?  Most Definitely!  It is in giving we receive.  Hundreds of times, when I am learning this lesson, it's as if I can see Master laughing...  With me, not at me.  Laughing to encourage me to stay true.  To Stay the Path.  Or as Vishnu said a hundred times: "Follow The Simple Instructions"...

So true.  Master has already given us the priceless gems.  It is up to us to treat them like gems or throw them about like worthless rocks.  So I looked at my calendar to see what Master was telling me...

Day 26
Dirty food dirties only your body, but dirty words dirty your Soul!  Spiritual development is dependent upon inner Purification or character building.


How does He know?  Does He really watch over all of us?  I am amazed at His Grace.  


Have a joy filled week!

Love,
Jhilmil


One of my favourite hymns...  I love singing this one!  Enjoy...
http://www.hymnsite.com/

1. Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
was blind, but now I see.

2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved;
how precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed.

3. Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.

4. The Lord has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be,
as long as life endures.

5. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
a life of joy and peace.

6. When we've been there ten thousand years,
bright shining as the sun,
we've no less days to sing God's praise
than when we first begun. 

Sadhguru/Isha Yoga experience: A Deception?

As I move along the spiritual path with Master, I sometimes stray to smell the roses along the way. Yesterday, on the urging of another friend, I decided to go for the inauguration of an Isha Yoga centre in Mehrauli, and also to check out this new spiritual master I hear a lot about.

It was like being in Hell for 2 hours! Now, I am all for free choice, meditations of many different paths, and all that. But this yogi, and that is what he was, was just a tantric awakening the basic and sex chakra of the 400 odd people who had come...

There was no love there. Just money. There was no feeling of welcoming. Just hostility. No heart chakra or crown chakra. Just lower basic chakras.

As I sat there, right in front, as I had gone to check out and understand the magic behind Isha, I came to a sad realisation. People think of spirituality like this. People come to religous discourses just to have their kundalini energies awakened, and all they can think about bliss is when the energy reaches the sex chakra... I felt so sad, and my heart was filled with healing and love for all these people...

So, I am not condemning Isha Yoga, Sadhguru, or his message. I just believe that if you become a true tantric yogi, and you can play with energy, like he was obviously doing, why not use it for love, or healing?

And then the answer came to me. Crystal Clear. All Masters are not Equal. Just like Master Choa is love itself, some Masters are not.

Thank you, Master! And today in my GMKS calendar, he is saying:
"The Spiritual Path is more complicated than the Amazon. The Guru has already been through the "forest". Follow the guidance of the Teacher to avoid getting hurt."

Like he is talking just to me this morning as I struggle to bless Sadhguru and Isha Yoga.

Like he is sitting right by my shoulder.

Pure Guru. Pure Love. Pure Bliss!

After the Storm, The Stillness...

"After the storm, comes the stillness. After the heavy rain, there is growth. After the unpleasant changes, there will be Greater Activity, Greater Success."—Grand Master Choa Kok Sui, Founder of Pranic Healing

I have been in Vipassana meditation for the last 4 days. For a description on Vipassana, check out its definition from the Great Wikipedia at the end of this post. Now it is not really possible to do real Vipassana in a family life setting. I should retreat to an ashram, lick my wounds in private, and take the vow of Noble Silence for 10 days! Try doing that in my home with my energy healing constancy, 4 children, a dog... a wounded and fragile husband.... and you'll know my kind of vipassana is modified for JSpirit. Basically I am talking only to those people who heal me, and not talking to those who drain me. This allows me the energy to look within and see how I want to heal. Because I am extremely fragile after the events of last week (sexual abuse etc., against my son, my husband trying to take away all the things that keep me happy, my 11 year old's 2 days of swimming competitions at an inter school level, etc.....).

So, right now, I am back to 80% of my functioning. I can finally smile through the tears. Or see the sun through the rain. Or be extremely dangerous to my enemies.... As they see me wounded and fragile, they are trying to strike me down. I smile as I plot my next move. Like a wrestler completely "in the zone", I enjoy playing with their minds....

Or maybe I am a "heart" person, a "love" person, a "Ray 2" type person.... the kind of person they do not expect to see in a wrestling match. The kind of person who uses love to win battles...

Bring it on, Principal! Here's to our next meeting on Thursday...

Love,
Jhilmil

PPS: Vipassana
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vipassanā (Pāli) or vipaśyanā (Sanskrit) means "insight" and is often referred to by Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike as simply "insight meditation". While it is a type of Buddhist meditation as taught by the Buddha, it is essentially non-sectarian in character and has universal application. One need not convert to Buddhism to practice vipassanā meditation. While the meditation practices themselves vary from school to school, the underlying principle is the investigation of phenomena as they manifest in the four Foundations of Mindfulness highlighted in the Satipatthana sutta; namely: Kaya - Body (or breath), Vedana feeling, Citta - Mind, and dhamma - Mind objects. It should here be noted as those factors differ from the Khandas - aggregates - in the sense that the Citta factor is not connected to any aggregate being in fact the basic mood of the Mind-Body aggregate, and the dhamma factor encompasses all mind objects thus including the Vinnana, Sanna and Sankhara aggregate but also all mind objects that are not a fruit of kamma like, for example, the Four Noble Truths themselves.
In a broader sense, vipassanā has been used as one of two poles for the categorization of types of Buddhist meditation, the other being samatha (Pāli) or śamatha (Sanskrit). Samatha is a focusing, pacifying and calming meditation, common to many traditions in the world, notably yoga. It is used as a preparation for vipassanā, pacifying the mind and strengthening the concentration in order to allow the work of insight. This dichotomy is also sometimes discussed as "stopping and seeing." In Buddhist practice, it is said that while samatha can calm the mind, only insight can reveal how the mind was disturbed to start with, which leads to prajñā (Pāli: paññā, knowledge) and jñāna (Pāli: ñāṇa, wisdom) and thus understanding, preventing it from being disturbed again.
The term is also used to refer to the Buddhist Vipassana movement modeled after Theravāda Buddhism which employs Vipassanā and ānāpāna meditation as its primary techniques and places emphasis on the teachings of the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta. Vedanā (sensation/feeling) is the primary initial subject of investigation.
