Seva No. 68

Hands on healing by Kenya Members Monica and Laveena.

Laveena and I went to give hands on healing to Ria Motwani, 41 years, in her house.

Ria has been suffering from severe pain and has been in bed since a few weeks now. What she thought to be sciatica pain in her left hip and leg was diagnosed as more than that. Her L5 and S1 vertebrae are affected, causing the acute pain and she’s advised to just rest.

I went to give her healing on Monday 19/05/25 and she slept early that night, forgot to take her medication yet got very good sleep and felt loved and comforted.

Today after the healing she sat up for 2-3 minutes and said that since Monday she is able to sit for few minutes and her pain killers have reduced from 10 to just 1 a day. Laveena had given her distant healing on Tuesday and both Laveena and I have been sending her healing since few days.

My gratitude to this seva opportunity.

Seva No. 69

Reiki blessings for crows.

This morning around 9.30 am, I put out bits of roti ( Indian bread) on the window sill of my office for the usual 2-3 crows that come every day to eat the bits of rotis.

Today suddenly I saw dozens of crows come there and being as auspicious day of Ekadashi fasting luckily I had made double the quantity and also placed some other food items for them.

It was strange as they didn’t caw much to call out others yet so many of them came and my husband Haresh immediately told me they must’ve come for Reiki. I started giving reiki and they continued to come, eat, fly away and return without making any noise. I think they loved the energy and then I had to leave the healing open ended as it was time for a meeting. But during the meeting I saw them coming in, in twos and threes and I was silently doing healing from my heart and mind. Then a huge eagle came and sat there for healing as well. I felt so blessed because in my Hindu culture crows represent ancestors and eagles are like father figure protectors.

While doing all this I intended this healing to go to all the crows and eagles in the world. Thank you Reiki for enabling me to do this silent Seva for these creatures of God.

Seva No. 70

Healing Traumatised Cats

Done by Kenya Members Cecilia and Kamal

The cat called Alma and her 2 kittens had been rescued from  a place where they had been neglected, perhaps even abused, we are not sure. And one of her kittens, Cheeto, fell so he’s slightly wobbly when walking. As we were giving him Reiki, we were told that he had a neurological problem, hence the weak legs. He was held by his human, while Cecilia and i blessed him with Reiki.

The Mum, Alma, is very traumatised, and moves away from humans. She also has an eye problem. When we had finished with Cheeto we looked for her, but she was nowhere to be found . .  . Was hiding behind the sofa. When we located her there, she simply ran off downstairs, didn’t want us anywhere near her. Eventually, we did manage to give her Reiki as she sat in her basket. At first she just looked back at us, not trusting, but after a few minutes, she relaxed a bit. As she relaxed, we moved closer and closer to her. She indeed, needed a lot of healing!

The other kitten Sky, was ok, but we blessed her with Reiki too.

LHSG 20 Years of Reiki Sevas Part 18 Seva No. 66!

Seva No. 66!

Reiki for the trees and for nature in The Karura Forest, Nairobi, Kenya.

I am very happy to share a seva that Kenya Members Monica, Shariffa, Mamta Shalini, Anuradha, Deepu, Bubbles, Abhilasha, Sarika, and I, Kamal, did at the Karura Forest on 8th May, 2025

We started with Mamta’s lovely guided meditation of connecting with the elements inside us and outside us in Nature.

Next, we did another silent seva activity of connecting with Goddess of the Forests, Van Devi, received energy from her, and gave back to the trees in equal measure. Monica has recorded all the steps as I explained them to the group. You can, if you wish, listen to the recording and follow it anywhere in the world where you have a froest / trees.

After that we went to the Amani Garden, where a tree has been planted for every victim of the terrorist attack at the Westgate Shopping Mall in Nairobi. It was a bit of an emotional time for us, because some of us knew some of the victims. We chanted the Shanti Path, (Peace Path), and then walked around, blessing each tree with Aum Shanti and Reiki, and gave collecting healing to all the names on the board.

Then a few of us went to bless a stream with water that we had blessed with Reiki and Positive thoughts, while the rest of us remained behind to sing the Niravana Shatakam for the liberation of the souls.

Please read on for Monica’s report and do watch the videos, in which we share our experience of connecting with Van Devi and the trees!

The much awaited day for our healing meeting was finally here and Indra devta as well as Surya Devta were merciful to gift us a bright sunny day. We chose our ‘spot’ in the forest by finding a comfortable place to sit and meditate surrounded by trees and birds and bees.

The meditation led by Mamta was very comforting and balancing and it felt great to be in sync with the Five Elements and charge our energies. Mamta’s sweet voice felt very heavenly at times.

The activity of connecting with Vandevi through the trees and the forest was a very fulfilling one. As Kamal started explaining the steps of the activity I had goosebumps at the mention of Vandevi and almost immediately felt her presence around me.

The energy circuit activity was enhanced by Vandevi’s presence and I felt lot of movement around me and heard like the sound of anklets with tiny ghunghroos. I assumed that it must be Kamal moving around taking pictures but later when she shared the pictures I realized she hadn’t come that close to me at all. After listening to her recording now I know that it was perhaps Vandevi and her movement around and this makes me feel all the more blessed. My gratitude for today’s Vandevi experience.

Visiting the Westgate victims’ memorial area was an emotional experience as I touched many trees, gave them healing extending the healing to the souls of the victims and silently did Ho’oponopono to them. This is a time when my emotions are of grief after the terrorist attack in Kashmir and the actions being taken by the two countries connected with it, and then recollection of memories of Westgate attack was bound to make us emotional.

On the whole a very fulfilling morning with Nature, in meditative healing atmosphere though I felt saddened by the loss of trees in the forest and I asked forgiveness from the stumps left behind after felling of several trees.

Love and Light,

LHSG 20 Years of Reiki Sevas Part 17 Seva No. 65!

Seva No 65!

Reiki level 1 training in Delhi.

Our Hindu refugees keep coming from across the border with Pakistan, to escape the religious persecution and kidnapping of our little Hindu girls, forcibly converting them into Islam, and marrying them off to their abductors, men in their 40’s and 50’s!

We have been empowering such adults and children with the healing power of Reiki. This has been happening for the past 6 years.

On May 8th and 9th, 47 such children, recently arrived from Pakistan (some as recently as 2 weeks ago) in the Adarsh Nagar Refugee camp in Delhi were trained in Reiki level 1. They were a very switched on lot, embraced the concept of Reiki being a healing energy, and already started showing positive results during the two days of the training.

I am very grateful for this golden opportunity for uplifting these beautiful souls with this healing empowerment. For sure they will be healed of all their deep seated traumas, and will contribute to the world in a meaningful way.

As always, during these trainings, we cater for lunch or snacks for these children. This time it consisted of jeera rice, chick peas curry and a rasgulla (an Indian sweet). It was sponsored by our Founder member Monica Gokaldas and our UK member Bijan Popat.

Do watch the slide show and video. The training was carried out in Hindi, the national language of India. Apology to those who do not know Hindi, but the visuals show it all!
