Spiritual Outlets - Maybe not so bad afterall. Maybe.




This is an issue that has me perplexed.

Or maybe, confused. I’m not sure which one.

Lets start at the beginning.

Spiritual outlets were largely unheard in Malaysia. You spiritualist would know them – shops selling crystals, meditation books, peaceful cd’s and what not.

I used to be against all these, for the simple reason being – The commercialization of Spirituality.

The term “spirituality for sale” would just scream at me every time I looked at one of these places. Heaven forbid what I had to endure when I took a step off the cliff of this world and into the the dimension of spiritual retail. What more just looking at it.

And so I was against it. “ You just cant sell spirituality” I used to think.

And this is, as I have said before, spirituality is you. Its a personal thing. It’s what you want it to be. Its what you make it to be. For some people, it painting. Others, meditation and/or hatha yoga. For some others (and lets be open minded here) its sex.

What ever it is that gives you a sense of fulfillment and liberation, its fine. That’s your choice.

What its not is packaged marketing, for sale.

And this, was what I was against.

But as all learning goes, when you can see the various angles, you learn to see a bigger picture.


And that is – Maybe these outlets just really help people find what they are looking for. If a person knows they want something, e.g. a amethyst or lemurian crystal say perhaps, these outlets are there to help get it for them.

Helping people get what they want, yes. Maybe these outlets aren’t there to define what your spirituality should be; merely to help you on your self-defined spiritual journey.

Doesn’t sound so bad now does it? Sounds better doesn’t it?

Or am I reducing/redefining the issue?

Well, that’s another head scratcher. Until I figure that out, I’m going to leave it alone.

So I guess, maybe these outlets were going to happen eventually. As more people begin to accept spirituality in their lives, there was going to be a demand for one thing or another. One that a centralized location could do the work to help you get it.

But I will say this also – Do the outlets define what your spirituality is? No. You define what it is, they get you what you need to do it.




Ps to the people who are following this blog: Thank You, so very much. I'm humbled.

I think.........therefore......?



There is something to be said about maintaining a spiritual blog I once wrote in one of the posts – It aint easy.

I realize that now, though not fully.

I don’t quite get it, but for some reasons there just doesn’t seem to be many things I am able to blog about. Which is crazy because in the spiritual world, there is just so many things to write.

Afterall, isn’t spirituality a journey. The Spiritual journey as they say? Then there should be many more things to write about.

Which is perhaps the other side of the issue. Since taking up Pranic Healing and being involved in Healing/s, I slowly seeing that the higher I go in my journey, the more philosophical it’s becoming.

I mean this when I say how things related to one another, or how the concept of Form and Substance really does have some implication on how we perceive the world. Perhaps more interesting yet, when we get right down to it, the deeper we go, surely at some point we’re bound to come to a one single point from where everything is then built upon or created on. I mean we have molecules, then atoms, then God knows what...

See the philosophy behind all this? I wonder also if I have just written out a few suggestion for blogposts.

See my dilemma? Any wonder why this blog hasn’t been updated in a while.

I don’t know what to write on.

Which is what I said at the beginning of this post.

So anyway,for the New Year, while I get this mess cleared out and hopefully some ideas along the way, please now feel (very) free to email me any ideas you would like me to blog on. At least, something better than nothing right.

Send emails to – riverofkarma@gmail.com

Am I confused for some reason – Yes. Do I want to get back to some more serious blogging – Even more Yes.

Well then, lets.



PS to all : Happy New Year

Hi

Hi.

(Ducks for cover from objects thrown)

Gosh. How the year has flown by.

What happened? Its already August end. The best of my recollections, New Years was yesterday.

I certainly didn’t aim to leave this blog, yet alone fro long, but somehow its just. Time rolled over and this blog was left empty for no good reason.

Anyway, excuses aside, its time to get back to some writing.

I’m back folks, though I never really left.

Michael Jackson - 1 year anniversary, 1 year on.


It's now one year since you left us.
And your presence is still missed. Always. Everyday.
Somedays I wish you were still here.
I hope you now have the peace you long for.

1 year on......

We miss you.


Thank you for everything.

In the study of Quantum Physics and its many phenomena’s involving particles, there exist one very unique event termed as Entraintment.

From I’ve gathered, Entrainment is the study of particle behavior when in interaction with another particle of either higher frequency or lower.

According to wikipedia, Entrainment is defined as “ the process whereby two interacting oscillating systems, which have different periods when they function independently, assume the same period. The two oscillators may fall into synchrony, but other phase relationships are also possible.”

To cut a complex story simple, what it means is this : When 2 particles of different wave lengths meet and interact, it is found that the particle with the lower wave length begins to change its wave frequency to match that of the other particle.

In a sense, it upgrades itself.

It’s called Entrainment in physics.

In spirituality, it’s called vibration increase.

For anyone who is an energy healer, it wouldn’t be uncommon to say that they literally walk in the energy field. I say this because all, if not most, modalities entail connecting to healing energy that’s around us.

How that relates to Entrainment is very simple if you can see it.

In this process of connection with the said Field, we become filled with higher vibration energies. This has to happen; it has to through us which it then goes out in what we call a healing session.
However what most people don’t know about energy healing is this : As the Healer immerses themselves in the Healing field, this energy fills up our physical body.

It goes into every organ, tissue, muscle, cells and even… our molecules. And as the fill up happens with this higher energy, our lower vibrating molecules come into dancing contact with it.
What results there after is the same the two particles mentioned at the beginning of this article.
And hence begins the purifying process.

Very slowly. Covering everything.

And for certain, very surely.

This has been an area of interest to me for awhile now. The question of what happens to us deep down when we interact with these energies? Deep down. To the building blocks that make us up?

Would there be any changes?

Apparently, there would be.

And the changes are noticeable too.

By changes I mean the dropping of old negative habits and the, very often from nowhere, adoption of new healthier habits like turning to vegetarian or yoga asanas, even meditation. (In fact, this happens in meditation too. Plus something else very unique we found to occur normal meditation which will be revealed in another post)

While I can’t exactly say it with certainty but it seems that habits seem to possess a frequency of its own. And when in contact with higher refined energies, these lower frequencies seem to lose hold and slowly start to drop away.

If this is so, then this would in fact be the very definition of Renunciation.

As Pranic Healers, we see changes in the Aura itself.
For one, the Aura becomes bigger in size. Not withstanding, we find that the Aura becomes refined, lighter, firmer and more flexible. (As GMCKS Pranic Healers, we can also feel the aura)
Somehow, this translates into a change in behavior. At least, what I have come to find through observations.

It makes sense to me in away; as we start to indulge in healthier habits like the aforesaid meditation or yoga, we start to value more the better habits and less the ones that aren’t. Perhaps. And as we continue to do them, we bring in better energy into us.
And as that happens, the good habits purify and the lower negative habits start to lose hold.

This sounds very interesting.

Entrainment is perhaps a very unique event. That the more we do something good, the more it makes us better. Science maybe catching up slowly; but Hindu Yogi's and Swami's knew this thousands of years ago.

The Science of Miracles - Gregg Barden

Meet Gregg Barden. Engineer turned Spiritualist.

He made a dvd called The Science of Miracles not too long ago. In it, he talks/gives some scientific rationale to what we normally consider is an amazing Miracle.

I didn't think much about it at first, but as I got into the video (below), I began to see some pearls of wisdom. The video I've uploaded here is part 5 of 7 in youtube. There's a reason I've chosen this specific video; there's truth in it.

Watch from start when you want. Enjoy.
