Lotus Healing Seva Group Breaks Ground in India!

December 2011 will go down in the History of Lotus Healing Seva Group as the month we established ourselves in Mumbai, India!

Kamini Asrani (LHSG India) and I gave two presentation on Reiki during which the healing benefits of Reiki were explained and mass healing was done for all participants. These events were held at the Times of India building and the Hindu Gymkhana on 26^th Dec and 27^th Dec respectively. The healing received by the participants had such fantastic and immediate results, that we had a flood of requests there and then to hold a Reiki workshop!

Accordingly, on 30^th Dec, LHSG opened its heart and the doors of the Spiritual Centre in Mumbai, to admit 58 men women and children to its first Reiki Level 1 Free Camp! Although the room was small, and we were a bit cramped, it did not in any way diminish the enthusiasm of the participants, which was literally palpable throughout the day. Lying down for the attunement also proved a challenge, as there was no way that all could be accommodated in a single room. There was excitement in the air as they spread out in 3 rooms and eagerly awaited their attunement. ‘AUM’ was chanted 3 times, to calm them down before the actual transfer of the attunement began.

After a break in which tea and refreshments were served, they did self healing, marveling at the new found Reiki power in their hands. After lunch, once again they had to spread out in the three rooms to do partner healing and group healing. But then we had another challenge coming our way. Apparently one of the rooms we were using had been booked at 3 pm by a ‘Bhajan’ (holy songs of worship) singing group. Luckily, by that time we had finished our healing and got back to our initial room. I was concerned about how I would continue teaching with singing going on next door, but to my surprise, it did not interfere in any way. So, to the background accompaniment of melodious voices singing Hindu bhajans of the Lord, we concluded the last part of the Reiki workshop.

By the end of the workshop, the participants had, (no surprises here) healing experiences to relate …… pains gone, acidity gone, more relaxed, asthma calmed. One of them, who had been chronically ill, felt pain free for the first time in years!

At 4.30 pm, their faces glowing with Reiki the happy participants and us did the ‘Circle of Love and Prayers’. Seeing the joy on their faces, my heart too was filled with joy and gratitude. I was humbled and grateful that yet again, I had been given this beautiful opportunity to be an instrument of the Lord / Universe to do his / her work of spreading Love and Light through the power of Reiki!
