Trust your Feelings if they say a Healer is Fake - 19 Aug 08

19 Aug 2008  Asselscheuer, Luxembourg

Category: Fake

Swami Ji and Friends

The two last days I wrote about people, who take advantage of the problems of others, who claim to be able to solve all problems. Of course people who are deeply worried, who are afraid and who have many questions, go to them because they have the hope that it can help. However you always need to see to whom you go and also listen to your feeling. Do you feel good with that person and with what he does?

I am not suggesting mistrusting everyone who says that he or she could help you. No, there are many healers and spiritual therapists who really can help you because they went through pain or grief themselves and know how to handle it. Just be careful when you go somewhere and have a strange feeling.

Like one of my friends who had written an email a few weeks ago. He told me that he had been to an African healer several times with his wife. In the beginning he felt strange and funny with this man but he consulted him nevertheless for a personal problem that he had. The ‘healer’ suggested a special treatment for my friend’s problem: he would kill a cow and have a special ceremony with its genitals. And for this ceremony my friend was supposed to pay 1600 Euros. Of course he was shocked and immediately left that healer. He did not go back there and realized that in the sessions before that man had also been talking bad about other people in his life to keep him away from them. A trick to keep him from those who would tell him that the healer is not doing anything good.

This is an example that you need to watch out that you go to a person whom you can trust. Have confidence in your own gut-feeling. These wrong people can do harm, not good. They create fear. I would like to make you aware, unfortunately this is going on in this world. I want to tell you that you don’t need to be afraid, but careful.

Today Roger and Mady took us to a nice place in Luxembourg. We walked a little bit between trees and up a hill and then we were in front of a cave that Roger wanted to show me since long time. Nobody knows who has built it. We went up a little bit further and came to a place with a fantastic view. It was a nice walk and when we came home we all were hungry. Yashendu and Mady prepared a delicious dinner for us.

you can also listen to the instincts of someone who cares about you! Wish my son had listened to mine when he was getting healings from his crooked guru. could saved a lot of money and time.

I don't normally make New Years resolutions, but I have made quite a few this year and they are all part of a complete package to feeling whole. One of the main ones is listening to myself. Because I notice I have lots of subtle signals coming from inside me, like part of me trying to communicate to another part of me, and so many times if I hadn't ignored them things would have gone much better for me. I want to hear myself. That is my New Year's resolution.

I like Yashendu in see-through. It is a good look for you.

A teacher that points you inward is one worth trusting.

Reply By Natasha on November 01, 2010 05:53


Different religious scriptures say (in so many words) "never trust your teacher." This doesn't mean don't trust anyone in the way you may imagine. It is a statement pointing you inward. Observe what is inside of you. Trust that first, because the answer, although it may be nothing like you expected, is already there.

Words of Wisdom

  • Scriptures

    Scriptures - squeeze them and you will see blood dripping out of them!

    Source
  • Rituals

    We don’t need rituals to find God and God will not be especially happy if we do rituals for him. You can find God through love and by being in love, you do the best service to him that you can.

    Source
  • Religion

    People prefer making religious donations rather than charity donations to secure a seat in heaven by giving to a preacher or temple.

    Source
  • Respect

    Teach your children respect for others and themselves. Otherwise as adults they will start having psychic problems, don’t love themselves and don’t respect their body and feelings. Sometimes they even start hurting themselves. And there is nobody to stop them and set them limits. If they are not nice to you, why would they be nice to themselves?

    Source
  • Sex

    Sexual desire is natural in a healthy body and mind. Not having sexual interest is a sign that something is not right.

    Source
  • Superstition

    The top scientists of India don’t trust their own work enough but have to ask God for support. Unlucky numbers are skipped. Doctors are afraid of bad energies. These people are all literate but unfortunately not educated.

    Source
  • Religion

    Don’t let a religion take away your freedom or tell you what to do. Take your own responsibility, be tolerant with others, love those around you and be free.

    In this age and time, people don’t even have time for themselves, so if someone takes out time to strengthen your friendship, it is great, appreciate it.

    Source
  • Feelings

    People are not sensitive for their own feelings anymore. Come down from head to heart, from thinking to feeling. Switch off the mind from time to time and listen to what your heart says. Then you will discover your true feelings.

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion has always worked like a dictatorship, exploiting people, using fear to make them accept the rules without asking. The dictator makes the rules and you have no way to change them.

    Source
  • Relationship

    When you have a physical relation with someone, it brings an emotional connection and an emotional relation requires physical closeness.

    Source
  • Sex

    If you work with sex, do it, but don't call a sex workshop a Tantra workshop!

    Source
  • Spiritual

    Spirituality is something very personal and individual. You don’t need to connect with a sect or join a group for living your spirituality. You need deeply felt spirituality and not show-off spirituality. Be natural about your spirituality.

    Some gurus promise they could liberate you from the cycle of reincarnation. Who would prove that? But the guru makes his money…

  • Religion

    If you want to believe in the original form of Hinduism, you cannot convert to it. You are either Hindu-born or you are non-Hindu. If you follow any Guru or sect, you are a member of a Hindu-based sect or cult, not a Hindu!

    Source
  • Sex

    After Import in the West, Tantra became red, white, black and sexy!

    Source
  • Superstition

    The average religious person of the middle-class would be so much happier if he left religion and superstition and lived his life without it!

    Source
  • Fear

    What you fear is an illusion, a creation of your mind. The world will not stop turning, whatever may happen!
