In the time of Kaliyug, when the need of the hour is to spiritualise society, the role of the householder seeker is a crucial one. Juggling career, family, multiple relationships and traffic jams, the householder must bloom like the proverbial lotus in the muck of everyday life More>>
A
physician with a magic touchthat, in essence, defines Dr P.G. Kurup.
But, unlike other doctors, the word 'magic' has more than a symbolic meaning
in his case. For Dr Kurup has actually healed impossible cases through
aura diagnosis and surgery, baffling the medical community. A distinguished
allopath who opted for alternative healing systems, Dr Kurup discusses
his unique method of aura healing and his own spiritual growth in an exclusive
interview with Indian yoga
exponent T.K.V. Desikachar
Despite an excellent background in modern medicine, why did you turn
to other systems? The more you advance in modern medicine, the more you
are convinced of its inadequacies. When faced with such inadequacies while treating
my patients, I began seeking other therapeutic systems. To my surprise, I found
that India has had a glorious and scientific medical system in existence for thousands
of years in the Rig Veda.
How did you learn the Vedas without going to a teacher?
The knowledge of the Vedas and the Upanishads has always existed in the cosmos.
They were revealed to ordinary people for whom spirituality and meditation was
a way of life. When I realized this, I began concentrating on meditation. Even
though I do not know Sanskrit, I have been able to memorize many Sanskrit shlokas.
I did not have a personal guru. My ideals were the rishis to whom the secrets
of nature were revealed. Medicine and science are based on rationality. Spirituality,
however, can't be explained... These differences are only apparent. When you go
deep into the rational and spiritual way of thinking, you will find that the more
advanced your understanding of science is, the more profound will be the similarities
between the two. For example, Nataraja is a mystical and spiritual god
for the East. But the tandava (cosmic dance) is actually perceived as the
dance of atoms. It is now an approved part of physics.
How do you analyze patients?
We first conduct an aural diagnosis, which is very simple. We raise our
perceptual ability to appreciate finer vibrations and stand before the
patient, concentrating on his aura. In the aura, we detect almost everything
that can be measured by a CT scan, X-rays or an angiogram. Once the diagnosis
is done, we discuss what approach would be best for completely curing
the patient. Most medical people get rid of only the symptoms. But in
the aural system, we probe into the cause of the cause. It may be related
to this life, the childhood or even to past lives. After studying many
people, I found that certain behavioral patterns contribute to certain
diseasesthey affect the cause, the progress and even the nature
of cure. For example, if the cause of a disease is greed, we advise the
patient to change his character accordingly. When people understand, they
try and follow what we have told them. In such cases, there is total cure.
Is your prescription based on the condition of the patient or on your
own meditations?
I do have revelations while meditating. For example, I came across diabetics
who were too poor to afford expensive medicines and hospital bills. So I meditated
and realized that our ancients used honey to treat diabetes. I was not aware of
the chemistry of honey at that time. But I cleansed the wound of a diabetic and
covered it with honey. To my surprise, he started improving and was cured completely
in three weeks. This inspired me to start research on honey and I found that it
has powerful hygroscopic propertiesit can absorb water from everything.
Probably it absorbs water from the bacteria so that they cannot survive.
What role does chakra adjustment play in your treatment? Chakras, which take in cosmic energy, are crucial in the management
of diseases. In aural diagnosis, we check abnormalities in the chakra:
whether the chakra is congested or depleted, rotating clockwise
or anti-clockwise, whether the petals are offering protection or are torn.
Once you have analyzed the chakras and come into the cosmic field,
you can locate and repair damages and thus heal a person. Sometimes, the
cause of a disease may lie in discord between the patient and his parent
because of childhood trauma. If the parent has expired, we bring the soul
of the parent down and then improve the relation bond with the patient.
This can be done in a state of deep trance. There are, however, some difficult
cases where the seventh layer of the aura is damaged. One such case was
a patient with Alzheimer's disease. After repairing the seventh layer,
his teeth grinding stopped. Gradually, energy permeated into deeper layers.
Once it reached the physical body, we repaired the first layer along with
all the chakras.
How do you conduct spiritual surgery?
One does not do spiritual surgery on the physical body. It is done on
the aura. But there is a cell-to-cell representation of the physical body
in the aura. I wear red clothes while doing surgery so that I don't damage
the main arteries and nerves. We start with a prayer and proceed in the
same manner as any surgeon would. The only difference is that we do it
on the auricle rather than the physical body. It is easier, quicker but
not painless. Once, when I removed a stone from a patient's pancreas,
I distinctly heard her groaning.
Speaking of prayers, you generally conduct Vedic rituals.
Does this not constrain the system?
All rituals are based on scientific concepts. Idols are actually patterns.
Each pattern has its own powers of absorption, retention and release of
energy. Each pattern emanates electromagnetic energy. Rituals are intended
to transfer some energy from that particular pattern to the person concerned.
So we use the medium of flowers or sandalwood pasteall good absorbents
of energy. When you chant a Vedic mantra, its ultrasonic components are
absorbed by flowers or sandalwood paste and you submit this to the pattern.
How do you envision spiritual growth in the world?
The best century would be that of Indian spirituality. The West has begun
to understand Indian spirituality as it is fed up with materialistic science.
But the West understands spirituality only if it is in scientific language.
Indian spirituality must be translated into a scientific language.
To what extent does a positive
attitude help in keeping healthy?
You must go to a healer with the intention of being healed. We advise
patients to develop a positive attitude. It will work better than any
other medicine.
The moment I recognize
ahm brahmasmi (I am God), I am healed. Is that true? God cannot
be sick.
