Self- Healing and Child Abuse

One day at my apartment I was talking to a group of 5-6  girls ( aged 27-31yrs) when the topic of abuse came forth. It turns out each and every one was abused sexually as a child to a lesser or greater extend. Most managed to escape from the predator but the scars which some had were to haunt/upset them for the rest of their lives.

Most of the people abused as children would have never uttered a word to their friends/parents about the pain and would'v led their adult lives normally. It is sad to know that most people still subconsciously live with it and for some it keeps affecting them in some way or the other i.e feelings of rejection, abandonment, rigid, relationship issues, trust issues, fear,guilt, unresolved anger  etc. It is pain and hurt which is known only to the one who has been through it.

I know that it takes great guts, courage, time, patience to come forth and talk openly about a childhood abuse to anyone especially if the feeling of guilt, fear, injustice or non -acceptance from society are still deep rooted within.
With personal experience one must learn and understand that sometimes apart from oneself no-one else can help  ---" You are your own healer "

Reiki and Spiritual healing is one such mode of helping yourself or others in overcoming Child Abuse.

Reiki Self- Healing -

  • Give the intention to the Universe to heal your past wounds and liven inner child. 
  • If you like Invite archangel raphael or any god or angel with healing touch to support you.
  • While healing the heart chakra- imagine a pink soft ball bouncing and then slowly merging within your front heart chakra. Similar for back heart chakra. 
  • Use the distance and emotional healing symbols frequently on heart chakra and say let go and imagine green light surrounding your heart chakra.
  • While healing the hara chakra imagine orange waves cleansing the chakra.
  •  For the root chakra specifically use the physical and grounding symbols
  • Back root & hara chakra to be healed for longer durations.
  • Towards the end of self-healing do white light healing and green light protection especially around the heart chakra.  

Others Ways to Heal self- 

  • Forgive yourself & forgive the abuser. Write your feelings on a piece of paper about the incident then and now ( it can be ugly, sad, angry feeling) and close it by writing " I forgive you" and burn the paper. Do it as many number of times required.
  • Sit in a meditative position, take deep breaths until you feel relaxed. Let your mind wander about the abuse incident till the point you think it is baseless and no-longer a part of your identity.
  • Sit in a meditation position alone in a quiet place, take deep breaths and be relaxed. Start talking out your feelings aloud as if you telling the abuser how you felt and how is it hurting you till date.
  • Remember you re not alone, try talking to people who have been through similar experiences and encourage self and others to move ahead.
  • Keep a feelings chart- you might be surprised to see that some events or incidents trigger similar feelings, so work on with yourself or psychologist to how to improve.
  • Never ever blame yourself

Muldhara and Chinnamasta Devi

Recently have been interested in reading up material and books on Tantra - Hinduism and Buddhism. However last few days have interested in reading on the "Mahavidyas" of the Tantra world.

Heruka= Wheel
Mahavidyas are the ten forms of the Kali Mata herself of which apart from Kali, Tara and Chinnmasta form major group of the Kali energies. The ten forms are wisdom devis, wisdom can be from gentle, sattvic work/attitude to Tamasic or harsh or dark forces. So at the end of it all merges and becomes one.

Of all the 10 forms,Chinnamasta is quite interesting form, she is "SELF Decapitating" devi who depicts self-sacrifice ... I have somehow associated her with Avalikoteshara ( form of buddha- who self sacrifices inorder to uplifts ) but has fiery energy of Purshuram and Narasimha ( form of Vishnu). However in Buddhist she is related Vajrayogini Devi.

Her Self sacrifice is also related to awakening of the Kundalini Shakti which resides in the Muldhara /Root Chakra , the uncoiled serpent energy of the Shakti. The energy of Chinnmasta has the sexual energy, life, self destruction , danger elements of which are more like Muldhara up to the Svadisthana chakra, So her energies are mainly associated with the lower two chakras. The red color of the devi is the muldhara color. She is alone workshipped only by the Tantrik/Tantrikas under strict guru instructions.

Since Chinnamasta is the icon for Kundalini- the divine spiritual energy. The copulating couple is representing the Kundalini. The coiled energy at the base of the spine  also gets uncoiled during sexual intercourse. The energy flow goes from the base of the spine up till the head. The cut head and blood of the devi depicts the upward kundalini flow which is so strong and energetic that it breaks the vissudhi chakra- i.e: false expression, false words in that process makes the person weak, sad... which thereby leads to energy going all the way up the crown chakra and shattering and transforming the self--- i.e: one is in Transcendence   ( i.e: from the sushmana nadi up to sahasrara).
 
Another aspect to look at it when the kundalini energy flows all the way when one's pineal gland explodes and one has literally an orgasmic experience the false ego, false expression are no longer in existence, it is transformational-literally arising from owns death.
The three blood streams are nectar again which feed our own consciousness of good and bad residing within ourselves, the shakti then unites with shiva at sahasrara.( The two attendants of the Devi are tamsic and sattvic qualities)
 Another interpretation is that Dakini, Varini ( female deities of muldhara), Chinnamasta are ida, pingala & sushmana nadi. Ida ( lunar energy) & Pingala ( solar energy) flows & meets at each chakra point ( like the DNA structure ). 


Deeper Meaning
Osho zen tarot- Transformation
  • The self- decapitating is end of false ego, ignorance, expression, desires which are binding and conditioning one.
  •  The ability to live by let go and manifestation of the kundalini energies and gain of supernatural powers. Only by Letting go can we be in the present 
  • Death is inevitable- One must die by getting immersed in the action one does
  • Death and Sex are interdependent- sex is for creating new life , that life which will eventually decay and die inorder to feed more life and existence it self.
  • Control of sexual energy which can be channeled by a yogi/yogini for greated spiritual pursuits.
  • Fearlessness of death, not to fear of lust, ego, hurt as they are mere layers of the true nature of the soul.
  • Integrity, accepting oneself in whichever form or state
  • Self- Awakening and Self- enlightenment.

Distant Healing

Sometimes we have the capability/ability  to do something , but in real the intend is what matters-  this is what I learnt recently. We talk about good  intentions or about ill -will or good will but in the real sense does it really matter?. Do thoughts really have so much power that they can alter a certain situation or is physical presence  much needed for a feeling/thought to manifest.

Some agree and some disagree. However from a faith perspective  we have seen miracles happening eg: sick person getting better by mere prays and care, or someone falling sick / things not falling into place due to third person' s jealous. Recently I read a few articles which help strengthen the belief that Distance Healing or Non touch based healing works, i.e pure simple intent. ( will right more on this in my next article set).

Lets talk about reiki and distance healing.  Distance healing is taught in Reiki -level 2 with the intent that practitioner can heal the individual from a distance by simple intent. The understanding is that energy is universal and free flowing and beyond time and space and since intent are thoughts they interact quickly through the mechanism of subtly energies with the other person. Most of us interact with each other on these subtle bodies levels.

Mechanisms of performing distance healing :-

  • The healer and healee and remote locations should be open and say attitude of gratitude , both of them should preferably keep their feet on the ground or floor and not cross legs/hands while healing
  • It is always nice to schedule a time for distance healing else being open enough is also good.
  • Always clear off the space mentally around the person and mental aura sweeping 
  • Declare the person on your palm and send healing on each chakra. Healer to close the eyes and feel or see as the energy flows ( more possible if your third eye is open). 
  • Recommend to record the feelings - how the healer and healee felt during session
  • Using Internet picture or photo conduct healing on the person for all chakras or chakra identified with issues
  • Using an object and imagining the person & conducting healing
  • Incase of very serious cases group of people can send healing to different chakras or to all chakras for better distant healing
  • Reiki Intention box
  • It is important to make a journal for the number of days the reiki was performed and experiences to be discussed and shared between the healer and healee.Best the reiki healer share the overall experiences and suggestions with the healee at the end of the session or sessions as agreed upon
  • Pshycic surgery can be performed along with reiki distance healing too.

Remember ---A ways always send Reiki with compassion 

Enjoy your distant healing experience
