A return to Source

Spiritual guide Divyaa Kummar explores the domain of healing, and affirms that the healer’s only job is to connect the patient with his own Higher Self
Healing is usually considered to be a process which enables the self; but in its deepest avatar healing actually helps dissolve the ego – and its inherent fears, limitations and imbalances. These imbalances over time become the physical dis-ease we try and heal! Thus at its deepest, healing is removing the veils of separation and forgetfulness which keep us from our true Self and from our inherent state of vitality, balance, constant regeneration and good health. All that healers really do – through some system or tools – is to connect self to Self.

Tuning into the Higher Consciousness
If Higher Consciousness stands for qualities such as acceptance, forgiveness, non-judgment, non-resistance, and love, it follows that it is their opposites such as anger, blame, guilt, or the inability to let go, which cause mental and emotional imbalances. Thereby in becoming one with Higher Consciousness, we energetically tune into forgiveness and acceptance and what we call ‘healing’ is triggered. The longer one can remain in the Self and its Higher Consciousness, the more powerful the healing is. Therefore any system of healing when accompanied by awareness, leads to long-term well-being, and the capacity to abide in a state of health, balance and vitality! This awareness can sometimes be a subtle glimpse or a powerful eureka of understanding, but it works like light dispelling darkness in a room! Which is what healing is!
I had a woman client who had a very contentious relationship with her daughter. Whenever she tried having any conversation with her she would stomp away screaming, “Mother, you are suffocating me!” The mother was highly distressed by this.
When I worked upon her I found that the mother had killed her present-life daughter in her previous life by drowning her. This girl was born to her in this lifetime, and was carrying the feeling of being suffocated even though nothing of this sort was happening. I explained to the mother that the girl was born to her so that both of them could learn the lesson of forgiveness, and heal their relationship.
Self responsibility
Self responsibility is a major component of healing. The client who is involved in his healing and chooses to move into deeper awareness rather than leaving it to the healer, yields better results. At a deeper level, one of the key qualities of Higher Consciousness is self-responsibility – living the realisation that everything on the outside is the creation of something on the inside. Thus the point of change is within and not outside! This leads to complete self-responsibility and zero blame. When truly understood and practised, it moves you away from being hostage to outer situations and people, frees you from the twin issues of blame and guilt, and accompanying emotional upheavals, and releases your own powerful inbuilt healing system! Powerful not only in its power to heal but as a powerful antidote to prevent further disease!
And this is what I do. I do not call myself a healer in conventional terms. I often heal energetically, but my true work is to give the client a deeper understanding of their situation, the roots of their ailments, the spiritual guidance that helps put things into a larger perspective, and bring them into heightened awareness – where forgiveness, acceptance, non-judgment happens spontaneously from deep within! Thus I truly heal through the path of awareness or gyan which helps in far deeper ways than known!
There was a healer friend of mine who had tremendous healing powers but her own life was stuck. When I regressed her to her past life I found that she had been a healer in her previous life too, but had stopped healing out of the fear of contracting the problems of her clients. She was carrying a karmic debt on herself.
I told her to give healing freely to people without any expectation of a personal gain, and in two years time her life will open up. She followed my advice and is a happy woman now.
Methods
Healing can be done through many methods – each one in some way using the finer vibration, often called light. One can use physical aids containing these finer energies like Bach Flower Essences, which I have recently discovered as a powerful agent of deep healing. One can use the various systems discovered by masters to help humanity – reiki, pranic healing, Theta healing, or, as in my case, a tailormade blend of energies which I draw upon as best required in each case. Often the modalities of a system, for example reiki, open up one’s own healing font. The steps of any prescribed system are like keys into the universal font of healing, given to humanity to use till they expand and become one with the font – and once one is one with that font, one doesn’t need the keys – or a particular method! Compassion, empathy and love are a very vital aspect of healing – sometimes I have to only say and hold the energetic embrace of “Yes I know, I understand, I have been there too, it is okay, beloved soul friend,” and much healing happens.
The principle at work, is that finer energies help heal the denser ones. As per the law of nature, as the finer energies are introduced into the client … like light dispels darkness, or music dispels clatter, they help dissolve the denser frequencies, emotions and ailments. By the law of nature, the higher is uncontaminated by the denser, and the denser, once introduced to the finer, yearns to become one with that frequency – just like a lover is beckoned by the beloved’s voice.
Good health lies in the capacity of the vital life force to flow freely and unimpeded through us. When emotional and mental blocks impede or block this natural flow it leads to physical disease. Healing brings these blocks to awareness where it is then removed just like cream is easily skimmed off the surface of milk. Another principle at work in healing is what I call the law of the opposite frequency! Sometimes I energetically connect to the positive qualities and frequencies required by my client, and automatically their negative states start to recede! So rather than making them focus on and give further life to what they need to remove, often I make them focus on and fill them with the opposite frequency of joy, positivity, health and vitality!
A lady client had many lovers. She also had a husband who was good to her but she was always in search of that perfect man who would love her the way she wanted. This quest spoilt her life, and made her very sad. I told her that she did not love herself enough. This lack of self-love was getting manifested in her haywire life. The moment she connected with her inner wellspring of self-love, she stopped looking outside for it, and her life healed.
The principle of Now
Healing also utilizes the principle of the Now. In the now, we connect the past self, situation, pain, trauma to its future self.
One of my clients had poor self-esteem. She would always complain about the ill-treatment she received at the hands of her brother-in-law, and how nobody in her family supported her against him. This incident had happened seven to eight years ago but she continued to feel shattered, abused, null and void. When she met me I told her about her soul agreement with her brother-in-law. I told her that he was nothing but a strict teacher whose purpose was to awaken her. She needed to view the incident in the right perspective, learn her lessons and move on. She healed after this. I healed her past by acting in the now.
Each healer is used by Consciousness to heal in different ways to best reach out to those who come to them. I do my work in the deep understanding that whatever consciousness chooses to do for the highest good of my client is what comes through me – and sometimes it can just be a step along the way with no overt signs of healing! Perhaps some other healer will take it further, perhaps a foundation has been laid which the client needs to settle into before further healing can occur, perhaps seeds have been sown to sprout later.
The essence of healing
Through my work I have become aware that healers, as we use the term, are not necessarily only healing overtly. Oftentimes the healing occurs simply by their presence. So though I may read the cards, or be a spiritual guide, through each session actually healing is happening! I met an osteopath who wondered why his patients felt better with him even if he only talked to them, and I pointed out that actually he was a born healer and osteopathy was only a tool given to him to work through. This clicked with him and helped him to develop it more!
Healing can thus be a very creative act you enter into – an act of recreating Self. Removing whatever is redundant, whatever holds you back or weighs you down, dissolving whatever doesn’t serve you and adding or moving into whatever you best need in the Now. As a healer I am only the midwife. And my work is to connect you to your own Source, for as the Tao Te Ching says: “Once the work is done at the source, the whole river comes clean.”
