The Power of your Wishes - 24 Apr 08

Sonja, Swami ji and Peter

Last year I was in Baden-Baden on a spiritual festival where I should give lectures. It was a very big event with hundreds of people who were selling their books, cards, sound bowls, energized items and food. Others were there for giving massages, giving courses and lectures or for giving a concert in the evening. And of course there were also hundreds of people there to buy all these things and to listen to all concerts and lectures.

One of my lectures was in morning, another one in the late afternoon. Lots of people came to the first lecture and many of them were sitting on the floor because all chairs were occupied. It was a nice lecture and after it we took a round on the big market.

One woman who had been in my lecture saw me and came to me. She invited me to do a house healing for her house but unfortunately the plan was to leave this city and the area after the festival. So she said that it might work another day when I would be back in Baden-Baden and we said goodbye. As we had no interest in buying anything or taking a massage in front of fifty people we soon got tired of walking around and we started searching for somewhere to lie down. However there was no place for this.

So we remembered the woman from before and I said to Ramona how nice it could be if she took us to her home, I would do the house healing and then we could have a rest and maybe lie down for a while. Ramona laughed about this idea and replied that we could never find this one woman in the crowd of more than 400 people. I agreed that it would be difficult because I did not even remember how she looked like. So we started walking again with the wish to find somewhere to rest and suddenly Ramona called out: "Look there; that is the woman that we had met!" Ramona was very sure about it so approached her. Ramona asked me if I will just go and ask her if I can sleep in her house. I am really not shy in these things so I explained the woman how tired we were and if we could have some rest in her home in exchange for some positive energy. And she agreed happily. She took us to her beautiful house and when she brought us back one hour later her house was filled with nice energy and we were relaxed and fresh again.

It is amazing how much power our wishes have. If you really want something, you can make it real. Be open for the solution of your problems. It was improbable that we would find that woman between all those people but we did. And always be honest and natural. I went to her and just how I am and how the situation was I explained her that we needed some rest and she agreed because it was so honest. Be yourself and have the belief that your wishes will come true!

Yashendu took a train to Cologne today in the afternoon and Sonja will drop Ramona and me in Essen tomorrow morning. So this is our last night here and I realize again how fast time has gone by. I gave a partner-healing to Sonja and Peter on the last evening as a thank you for the nice week. We will say goodbye again but as I said before, each goodbye is a new hello!

Once the brasilian writer Paulo Coelho said the following about wishes: "when you really want something to happen, the whole universe conspires so that your wish comes true". So it's on you, think about what you wish ;)

It is amazing how powerful our wishes can be! When we send clear and direct intentions into the universe, they are very likely to manifest. And if you pray for help or a response to something... your answer will surely come. You just have to be open to whatever it is and not judge the work of the Divine. :D

Words of Wisdom

  • Knowledge

    Knowledge you can get without limit. But getting knowledge and knowing is something different. You can collect knowledge or you can get to know. There is a difference between talking about love and falling in love.

    Source
  • Healing

    A miraculous healing is usually not any miracle but just the natural strength of the body. The full credit goes to the healer who pretends that it was him who could heal.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Why are so many Gurus and Swamis in India extremely rich while it is difficult for many normal persons to get a full stomach?

    Source
  • Scriptures

    Why are holy religious scriptures full of violence and blood?

    Source
  • Gurus

    All Gurus like to say ‘Money is bad and you should not keep it. Give it to me.’ That is how they are rich. Is that their wisdom?

    Source
  • Belief

    Atheists identify themselves with the fact that they don’t believe in any god. They have the principle of not believing – but believing that there is no god is also a belief.

    Source
  • Personal

    I can’t change my past and I don’t want to. I am who I am and don’t deny any part of that. I keep my personal history open for you to see. Maybe it will show you the way out of a religion, out of a sect, away from a fake guru and from superstition and towards taking your own responsibility.

    Source
  • Personal

    I get mails asking if I can send energy to improve their chakras and how much my fees would be? They used to pay and get energy from other Swamis or some Gurus. I want to make clear that I don't believe energy can be sold or bought and sent in this way for money. Be careful with this kind of charlatans!

    Source
  • Religion

    Isn’t it cruel to show a person that you won’t even touch his arm just because he was born into an untouchable family?

    Source
  • Scriptures

    If you read a superstitious scripture often enough, you start believing it is true. Coincidences confirm it but you have to follow your doubt!

    Source
  • Acceptance

    Accept yourself as you are. You can follow a good and healthy example but don't go in any competition. You are fine as you are.

    Source
  • Self-Esteem

    You are special because of who you are - not because of what you do!

    Source
  • God

    Does God accept bribes from criminals?

    Source
  • Happiness

    If you are not happy, how can you make someone else happy? You need to have what you want to give. If you want to give love, you must have love.

    Source
  • Self-Confidence

    Get the self-confidence to get out of the habits of comparing and pretending to be someone else. Love yourself, as you are. Accept whoever you are, respect your feelings of what you want to do and what you don’t want to do and love! Then your mind will be free from the worry and you will realize that others do love you as you are.

    Source
  • Religion

    Why would God want women to be worth less than men? If men can read a book that you consider holy, why would women not read it, too? Why is it a sign of impurity when they go through their cycle, the most natural process on earth which makes life possible? There is nothing wrong in believing in the good aspects of different religions. Female suppression is however one of those aspects that can happily be left behind. Gender equality and fairness is something that you don’t need a religion to teach you.

    Source
  • Beauty

    Comparing with other does not increase or reduce your beauty!

    Source
  • Body

    Bleach your face with ‘fair and lovely’ cream, get slim and tall with pills, make your vagina fair and tight – it is not this what makes you a beautiful woman!

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion kills. Fasting can take the life of an unborn baby.

    Source
  • Meditation

    Meditation has become a sign of being spiritual or religious. Don't do it regularly however simply because your religion tells you to. Such a ritual often becomes a habit and loses its benefit.
