No Supernatural Powers and not a Member of the Esoteric Scene - 14 Apr 10

14 Apr 2010  Erkelenz, Germany

Category: Personal statement

Swami Ji

It is great to have positive experiences with the new way of healing but I also noticed that there are some people who always used to come to see me for healing when I was here but when they got to know about the change of healing method, they were not interested to come anymore. I knew them personally, too, because of all the years that I have been coming here and this is how I can imagine why some of them don’t want to come anymore: they are deeply in the esoteric scene and actually would like me to believe in the same way in miracles, materialization and similar things.

I was never in that scene which people call esoteric and of course, if someone comes to me, I always try to bring that person more into reality and into the love, to bring him or her down to earth. Until now, I was trying this but I believe that many were thinking I was doing exactly what they expected me to, that I have some kind of supernatural powers. They thought for me in a different way and actually this was one of the reasons for my change. People should not see me in the wrong way and see someone who I am not. I need to make clearer what I believe. Now they have no reason anymore to see me in this light, in the light of a Guru and miracle healer, because I openly say that I don’t want that. Maybe they say now that I don’t have any power or energy anymore to give them because I changed.

I welcome this, too, and I knew that it could happen with this change. It is good that people are filtering, that those, who do not fit at all and who can never accept what I am talking about, do not even come to me. When I talked with Sonja about it, we realized that another group of people is needed if those who were there before cannot make this change. I don’t want people to come to me and expect magic, because they will be disappointed. They will either imagine things which are not real or they will hear that I don’t believe in it and leave with a bad feeling or disappointment. It is nothing new, when people come to my lectures they come with a certain expectation and sometimes people also left again because I am just not that. I want to spare them their disappointment; they do not need to come. I want to be here for people who are serious, who want to work with their life and heart and who are ready to change their thinking.

I'm sure that the ways in which you help people are very amazing and beautiful. By using love, connection, and honesty, you show people the ability to heal for themselves. And the energy work of the Divine is extremely powerful! And if you are helping people to change their lives in these ways, I would call that a miracle. ;)

I'm really glad for all the ways you help people. And glad to read about it.

Reply By Theresa on January 24, 2011 02:12


I you sure that what you do is not supernatural? Maybe you don't mane to be supernatural, but in fact you are. I wonder.

Reply By Shelly on January 24, 2011 02:11


Thank you Swami Ji, I know that it would not make sense to be any other way. But I am very happy that there is someone to talk with for those who have suffered enough and would genuinely like to or would naturally step out of it at this point.

Humility....the most 'super-natural ' power of all! Thank you Swami Ji !

Words of Wisdom

  • Religion

    The fact that non-Hindus are not allowed in Hindu temples is racism in religion.

    Source
  • Superstition

    It is a collective decision to believe something that everybody has always accepted. It is tradition, it is normal, it is what everybody thinks. It was never questioned and even if someone questioned it, the doubts had to be rejected because that is simply ‘what we believe’. Always keep on questioning these things - they are the most likely to be wrong!

    Source
  • Life

    Insecurity in life makes you need assurance by others!

    Source
  • Gurus

    How can all those Swamis and Gurus give liberation of attachment to material when they themselves are so attached to gold and money?

    Source
  • God

    Don’t manipulate others and don’t let anybody manipulate you. Don’t do anything against your nature and don’t let others lure you into a religious sect under the pretense that they are only serving God, not any religion.

    Source
  • Religion

    It is stupid to try and make others believe what you believe. Never try to change anybody’s belief.

    Source
  • Gurus

    I will be happy to feel myself always as being a good student. But I see here many times that this desire of being a master comes. People want to be in charge. They want to be a master and it actually is their unfulfilled wish that shows in this way.

    Source
  • Belief

    Atheists have done something that is not very different from what Buddha has done – they formed just another group with a different belief, the belief that there is no god.

    Source
  • Food

    Discipline is very important in our nutrition. Eat when you are hungry. Hunger can be in the eyes and in the mind, too, not only in your belly. Learn to distinguish that.

    Source
  • Religion

    Crime and Religion - why are they so close?

    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.

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion is a firm and strict structure whereas spirituality is soft and flowing. Religion presses into clear and edgy shapes whereas spirituality makes round and soft. Religion comes from the mind and spirituality from the heart.

    Source
  • Life

    Life is short, live it! Do what you always wanted to do! Say it! Make it reality! You are the one in charge of your life. Love your life and live it!

    Source
  • Family

    Have dinner, lunch or breakfast or maybe all meals in family. It connects you with each other. In this way love can go through the stomach. Share your day with each other, take part in each other’s lives!

    Source
  • Feelings

    You can trust people only when you know them and you can only get to know them if they show what they feel. So make a start and show what you feel.

    Source
  • Friend

    If you have befriended someone because of a reason, when those reasons are gone, your friendship has no meaning anymore.

    Source
  • Freedom

    When women exhibit their body to show freedom and independence, they reduce themselve to the body and contribute to gender inequality.

    Source
  • Belief

    Human always wants to believe what is suitable and comfortable for them.

    Source
  • Yoga

    We should not say doing Yoga, but being in Yoga. When your soul wants to connect and unite with its source.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Religious leaders act as if God is their property and they are the ones to distribute the connection. But they are not the brokers of God. You don’t need to pay them commission to establish the connection. You can just dial in yourself.
