Christmas celebrations are just around the corner.
But in this season of loving-kindness, do you wonder why you still fight with loved ones?
Maybe you’re thinking, why do I always push people away?
I get it. We’re humans, after all. When angered, we fight or flee.
The thing is, do we want to anchor within us those negative emotions?
In one forum, this guy said it’s fine to fight with someone…but the constant vengeance would weaken the delicate thread or break it apart.
Pranic Healing taught us that we can “fight without fighting.” To use the energy approach.
I remember this incident two years ago (lockdown season). I had just exchanged harsh words with someone I cared about for whatever reason. Felt they don’t understand. They are rejecting me. They don’t love me.
But it was not a good feeling. Felt trapped, in any case. And so, retreating to the Meditation on Twin Hearts (with the mantra of compassion and mercy), while in the middle of the stillness, like a short film, the following flashed into my mind.
In a mountain far, far away healing flowers bloomed.
Fortunately, some of these flowers were brought down by a great teacher (who looked like our teacher Master Choa). The flowers filled the nearby valley with breathtaking energy. Healing the people who came near them.
Under the midday sun, vast, stubborn shrubs threatened to grow among these magical flowers. A woman (who looked like me) labored to weed out one of these shrubs.
“Can you please help me? This plot needs some flowers,” a woman neighbor approached, looking helpless.
“I can’t; I’m a bit busy. Here, have some of these,” the first woman didn’t notice that she mindlessly gave a handful of weeds to the second woman.
Catastrophe ensued. The weeds grew so tall and big. The flowers wilted and died.
“Give to your neighbor. It is the flowers that she needs, not the weeds. You will have to dig the dry soil and let the water flow also,” she heard the Teacher’s voice as he approached.
“I helped you weed out your garden. So that you may cultivate the flowers I got for you. That you may grow them, nourish you and your soil. Weeds may come out, depending on the history of your soil. But it will be good for you. Just keep removing them and working them out. But it doesn’t mean that you will not help your neighbors. I gave the flowers to you that you may also be able to give. That is the law,” was her teacher’s kind reminder.
“Yes, Master,” the first woman replied with an apologetic nod.
Regularly doing the Meditation on Twin Hearts gives one access to helpful insights. This one was what I needed. The anger harbored was like weeds that threatened to inhibit the joy within.
But after the meditation and a forgiveness ritual, there was a lightness in the heart. I returned to my person and made amends. We worked on what we needed to do. Without injury, without harshness. My patients were also thrilled with these techniques. They said it was like a heavy weight was lifted. And the thorn in their heart was removed.
My friend, do you want to take better care of your garden of relationships? To weed out negative emotions like resentment, anger, and frustration? And nourish your soul and loved ones with life-giving joy and happiness?
Learn them in the next Pranic Healing course. See you there.
