LHSG 5th Anniversary Event – The Oshwal Centre, UK

21 November 2010

The Lotus Healing Seva Group UK, decided to do Reiki Seva on 21st November, which is also UK’s International Sewa Day. It also happened to be Kartik Poonam, a special day for the Jains, who came to do prayers at the centre. The LHSG members offered Free Reiki Healings to them.

Mala Tolia was one of the members present at the centre. Here is her story:

The event was organised by Dipenbhai, Treasurer, Oshwal Association of the UK – North West Area

We were given two good sized rooms to heal in and a large foyer where we had put up posters and our LHSG banner.  

Kartik poonam is a very important date for Jains and they held puja and bhajans at the Oshwa Centre on that Sunday: they had some 200 people participating in the puja that morning so we counted ourselves very fortunate for being invited to discuss healing, participate in the puja and heal the crowd. 

We gave healing to about 80 people from 10.30 am to 3.30 pm. They were a mix of men and women, all over the age of 50: about 20 men and 60 women.

 They all had different experiences ranging from feeling relaxed to aches and pains disappearing! There was one lady who saw lots of coloured lights after her healing session; one of the men had had a broken shoulder and he felt pain free for the first time in 3 months!  A lot of the people felt very relaxed after their healing sessions with beautiful glowing faces quite apparent!

And what did the LHSG members feel? All felt they had a wonderfully productive day and I know that I felt a great sense of achievement and fulfillment at being able to be part of this seva. We all felt uplifted and buzzing with energy; sorry to see the last of the crowds when the day ended. We could have carried on for a lot longer but unfortunately the session had to be brought to an end as the Centre had to be prepared for another function.

LHSG 5th Anniversary Event – Kenya Reiki Presentation and Free Healing Seva

20 November 2010

The Lotus Healing Seva Group Kenya once again held a Seva event. The programme started at 10 am with Kamal Tolia presenting a Talk on Reiki and its benefits for all, those who are sick and those who are not.

Each member of the The Lotus Healing Seva Youth Group had been given a pair of plants of the same species, at the same stage of growth. For three months, one plant was given Reiki and watered with water charged with Reiki, while the other plant (the control) was not given Reiki and watered only with ordinary water. After three months, the results were there for all to see: the plants given Reiki and watered with Reiki water had grown bigger, had larger leaves or had more flowers, and in all cases, were definitely stronger and healthier showing that plants respond to the Life force of Reiki. The point here was that if the Life force of Reiki made living plants healthy, the same Life force of Reiki will make us living beings healthy. The Youth Group members proudly displayed their projects and answered questions from the audience about their experiments.

Next the LHSG members and the Youth members spread out into ‘the healing stations’ arranged by the Faraja Cancer Support staff and gave one on one hands on Free Reiki treatments to all who wanted to experience Reiki.

 By 3.30pm, 45 people had been treated with Reiki. The effects reported by them were: more relaxed, pain gone, happier, stress gone ……. Etc.

Throughout the day, the activities of The Lotus Healing Seva Groups worldwide were displayed on the wall through an over head projector. People saw the Seva work done by our members ….. healing at the old peoples’ home in Nairobi, Healing patients in hospitals, Free Reiki Level 1 camps in Kenya, UK, UAE, giving Reiki to babies in orphanages, and to sick animals ………..

All members who participated in this seva felt great peace within themselves after doing this selfless service. We felt good at having spread the word of Reiki once again.

LHSG 5th Anniversary Event – Kenya Free Reiki Level 1 Camp

14 November 2010

For the 4th year running, we conducted the annual Free Reiki Level 1 camp in Nairobi. The venue was the Shree Navnat Vanik Mahajan Hall on General Mathenge Drive.

More than 70 people, men, women and children came bright and early on the 14th morning, ready to welcome the beautiful energy of Reiki into their lives.

After hearing the history of Reiki, going through the Five Principles of Reiki, learning about the chakras and their positions on the body, they were ready to receive the attunement of the Reiki energy. All lay down on their mats on the floor and gently meditated. After the attunement was over, they had beautiful experiences to share: energy going up and down their body, a feeling of floating, warmth in their hands and in their body, seeing colours, an energy spiral around them ………. Next they did self Reiki and once again some were blessed with feeling the presence of their Guides!

After a light meal, they settled down to doing one on one Reiki and experienced the wonderful benefits of receiving a hands on full body healing.

Although the camp was free, energy exchange was made by donating for charity.

Reiki Diaries

Bhavik Kumbharana, Reiki 3A, 12 years

27th April 2010
My uncle who lives in India, called my Mom and told her that he had gone to see a doctor because he had a very bad back pain.. Eventually an idea came to my head. I asked him that I will do Reiki on him.

I started sending him Reiki for his back. When I was doing this, I kept swaying round and round. I could not control this swaying! This went on for 10 minutes. I did on his backbone. It took 20 minutes! When the heat stopped, I ended with light. I messaged him to ask how he was feeling? He said he felt very good.

I sent Reiki for a month and he has started to feel much better!

2nd May 2010

I shifted my house. Birds used to come to my old house, but not in my new house. I was missing them. So I gave Reiki to the intention that birds should come to my new house. They have started to come and we give them broken rice as food. Their timings are morning, noon and evenings. I am very happy because I see them come and eat.

19th July 2010

I went to a veterinary clinic and gave Reiki to sick animals. I gave to a dog whose front paws had been crushed by a car. It was a small dog with black fur. About fifteen minutes of Reiki, and after that, the dog started scratching my left hand with its front paw. It made me happy to know I had helped the paw get better. It was an enjoyable job.

7th August 2010

I once gave Reiki to a rose flower bud which was dying. It was yellow in colour. I started healing it. Healing took me ten minutes. The healing took me 10 minutes. The next day, it bloomed into a brand new flower from a dying bud! I was really happy for what I had done, It had become a young and healthy plant again. My mother thanked me for what I had done.

12th Sept 2010

I give Reiki to the Healing requests sent by Kamalaunty. The requests are for sickness, situations and blocks. I make sure I do this seva. I feel good after knowing how to heal others. Later when I read that the person has felt better, I feel like I have done good seva.

Now that I am part of the Etheric Lotus Healing Seva Group, I just request healing from the group not only for myself but for others too.

1st Oct 2010

An old friend of mine called Jay Tank changed his behavior completely when he went to a new school. He started to bully and tease the other children. After giving him Reiki for more than two days, he stopped his habits of bullying and teasing others. He started his old habits of being kind and polite. I was very happy!

My first Reiki Experience

When I was playing downstairs I saw a bird on a low tree branch who was only a baby bird. It was trying to fly on its own as her mother was showing it. Then as it tried to flap its wings and fly, it fell down to the ground. And I was watching it, so I decided to send it some Reiki because it just couldn’t get up. As I was sending it Reiki from a distance, I couldn’t believe my eyes. It just started to get up as it got its energy back. I saw it started to flap its wings and it joined its mother to fly with her.

And I went back upstairs, sat down to think about this wonderful experience.

The inter class experience

One day, a Tuesday morning, it was our interclass football tournament. I was made captain and I was told which position everyone would play. When I told this to everyone, they started whining and complaining loudly and my head started to hurt.

So I went under my desk and sent a Reiki energy ball with a thought that all keep quiet. Suddenly everyone stopped the shouting and walked away quietly.

That day I will never forget, it was so cool!

The experience when my aunty was in hospital

It was during the holidays when my aunty fell really sick. I couldn’t see her like that. She was weak, dehydrated and her bones started to curl up. So everyday, for a good 15 minutes I would send her Reiki and she told me she started to feel better and better.

In fact, the day came when she didn’t need to take her hospital medicines. Reiki is so Cool!!

The experience of Me

Every morning I start to sneeze and cough. So I decided to send myself Reiki.

As I kept sending myself Reiki every day, I kept sneezing and coughing less.

One day in the morning, I realized all my hay fever had gone. Hay fever means sneezing and coughing. And I felt so relieved. Because until then, I had never lived one day without sneezing or coughing in the mornings.
