Kamal Tolia & Lotus Healing Seva Group

22 October 2010

Priya just shifted to Toronto, Canada in March this year. Priya has two strapping boys aged 4 and 6. Both she and her husband have full time jobs.  Not knowing many people and still settling down in the country, and juggling a job with being a mom and homemaker, Priya did not have many options to do a grand scale Seva. She settled for a simple healing. Here is her feedback.  

Priya Betala:

It was a wonderful experience healing the two intentions I had picked. 

• Healing the Mother Earth axis shift.
• Lake Ontario healing.

Well to begin with why I picked the above two intentions: 

Just when the LHSG 5th Anniversary date was coming near and I was deciding on what to do I was guided to heal the Axis shift. But not very sure where to start from I asked Kamalaunty if LHSG Kenya could start giving healing a week before and if they get any insight I could heal that directly. 

Healing Mother Earth is always a part of our healing agenda. Well for the Lake I wanted to go there and heal it but due to bad weather conditions, I had to stay indoors to do it. As we all know healing waters is also a much needed task as we are all 70% water, so is Mother Earth, so it would amount to healing 70% of Mother Earth. And since my house overlooks Lake Ontario, I chose to heal this Lake. Again this is a sweet water lake and the lake water is consumed by many. I have sent in positive thoughts so it purifies all those who partake of it. 

Experience: 

When I had asked the LHSG (Kenya) to make healing the axis shift a part of their weekly healing agenda so that at least there is no human loss or property loss – I got the feedback that very little healing was going through and I was very happy to hear that as it would mean minimal or no human and property loss. 

Then it was my turn as I had picked this intent. When I was healing for 10 minutes a lot of healing did not go through. Then the next obvious question that came to my mind was Why was the healing so little? The answer was LHSG was already healing the Earth’s Consciousness grid every week.  

But I could not connect the two immediately and after deep insight understood that both in effect meant the same.  

A symbolic shift of Earth axis would mean that consciousness of people would also shift. And that’s exactly what we in LHSG are trying to do, to evolve spiritually not alone but together with all of humanity. 

Then it was time to heal Lake Ontario. Though I was supposed to be there physically at the lake side doing this, I knew it should not affect my healing in anyway if I sent healing from my home. 

I healed the waters in many ways. The start was with the exercises in SJH level 3 course, and then I was guided on how to spread the unconditional Love and soon within 10 minutes I could see the Lake shiny and bright even though the actual weather on the day was cold and foggy. I sent out this intention to the Universe: Brightness and Happiness comes into the Lives of all those who drink the water of Lake Ontario.

This thought made me very happy and I decided to continue healing Lake Ontario everyday till November 5. In spite of healing the Lake from far, I had a divine experience while doing this seva.

Kala Rao and her husband run a medical clinic in Bangalore. They were going to have a free health camp for hypertension and smokers. Kala, our lone member in India bravely decided to talk to the people about Reiki and our LHSG group, and give them hands on healing. Here is her story: 

The free health camp for hypertension and smokers was held at our clinic on Monday 1st November. We had about 12 people who were advised to undergo an ECG since their blood pressure was on the higher side. About 5 were counseled on how to quit smoking and relevant information distributed.

The camp was from 10am to 2.00pm and my contribution was towards Reiki healing to the smokers since I felt no amount of medication can help quit the habit. People are aware about the ill-effects of smoking but find it very difficult to kick the habit. It is the inner strength which is required not to resort to the temptation. They require our support and understanding. We will be having a follow up session next month again.

I gave hands on Reiki healing to each person. The intention of my Reiki healing was to give the smokers the inner strength to quit the habit. Alongside, I enlightened the staff nurses about Reiki and its powers to heal people with positive energy.

I made each person sit in front of me, asked them to close their eyes for a few minutes, recollect whatever the doctor had told them and resolve to quit smoking immediately. I gave Reiki healing to their heart chakra for I believe that’s where the true strength and determination lies.

The experience was truly bliss, it was something I did for my own happiness too. There was a feeling of calmness (in me) after I finished even though a lot of energy was taken (through me). Unfortunately, I couldn’t take any pictures.

Twenty one LHSG members left on a field trip to Lake Naivasha. There was excitement in the air as we left Nairobi early in the morning. By 11 am we were in Simba Lodge Hotel on the shores of Lake Naivasha. After a quick fruit drink, we all gathered on the beautiful lawns of the hotel and waited as Tejal Gohil explained about Holistic Yoga. We were asked to stand in a circle. With Tejal’s guidance, we went through the Yoga Postures which had a bit in common with the traditional Yoga asanas, and yet were different. A lot of fun and laughter ensued when the less fit amongst us could not maintain the posture for more than a second or even do it! A perfect example was when some of us found we could not reach our neighbors hands with ours after crossing our arms across our chest. We complained that our arms were too short, when in actuality we were not able to stretch them well!

The session ended with a beautiful exercise. Each one had to look into the eyes of her neighbor and speak out a positive quality that came to her mind about the neighbor.

Next we walked further up the grounds towards the lake and chose a spot that had many trees around. The energy of the trees was great! Yoga mats / kitenges (Kenyan for cotton colourful cloths) were spread out on the ground and everybody lay down. Kamal Tolia took all through the meditation of the 5 elements (Earth, Water, Fire, Air Space). Unfortunately, halfway through the meditation, it started to rain and we could not complete it. No doubt the ‘water element’ was asserting its presence! The meditation was done again later in the afternoon in the covered View Point shed.

After a sumptuous lunch, we gathered in the verandah of the hotel for the ‘Quiz’. Two teams were made: Shiv and Shakti. Questions on Lake Naivasha, Kenya, the Environment, Reiki, Crystal Healing and The Soul’s Journey Home course were put to the teams. If the team did not know the answer, they could still get the points by singing a song! Much fun was had by all, and with each team complaining that the opposite team had been given easy questions, it was decided after much deliberation, that Shakti team actually won by about 2 points!

After this it was time to heal the lake. We trooped down to the lake side and each of us filled a bottle with the lake water. Then we sat down on the ground by the lake. First we tuned into the energy of the lake by being still and simply listening to the sounds of the lake water and the surroundings. When we were sufficiently centred, and could feel ourselves as ONE with the environment, we blessed the lake water in the bottles in our hands. Each one spoke out loudly her blessings …….. Love, Peace, Harmony, Health, Laughter, Compassion, Unconditional Love, Tolerance, … etc. More than 21 blessing were wished in the water. Then we stood up and one by one poured this blessed water into Lake Naivasha, while chanting ‘Om Shanti, Shanti, Shantihi’ (Om, Peace, Peace, Peace). Since the waters of the Earth are connected with each other, we know that our blessings will be spread into all the waters. This was our way of healing Lake Naivasha and healing all of Earth. Even the hippos joined us with a noisy blessing of their own!

After that it was time for tea! Hema Lumb had a nice surprise for us. She had asked the Hotel chef to make a lovely cake with the words ‘Happy 5th Anniversary LHSG’. Daksha Shah and Dee Hockey together with Aleena Rupani, a youth group member, cut the cake and blew out the 5 candles!

It was now 4.30 pm, and time to leave the hotel. We gathered in the bus, and to much singing and laughter, we completed the journey back to Nairobi.

Free healing for sick people. Members Purvi Dighe and Sheila Punjabi did Reiki Seva for people in Purvi’s house. Purvi has a lovely energetic 3 year old daughter, who she had to pack off with her husband for the day so she could do this seva.

Purvi tried to cleanse her house in preparation for the treatments, but could not feel any healing flow through her hands. This was probably due to anxiety that she gets everything perfect and ready for the event and that the event goes well. She also wanted to do a meditation on chakra balancing, but could not find a cd or anything on the internet to help her. All this added to her anxiety.

Here is her story and what she learned from this seva ………  

Purvi: ……the event started with a lot of chaos, lots of ideas and confusion….and of course my complete inability to feel any kind of energy going thru me…… 

When I sat Anita on the mattress for the healing – I was actually wondering what to do…….but all through this —– the intention to heal to do good was very very firm…….so closed my eyes……started saying attitude for gratitude…before I could get the first words out…..I could see Mother Kwan Yin right above my head with a strong aggressive blast of violet energy being sent straight to my crown chakra….. 

Before I could digest that – suddenly I see a 33 layered Flower of Life come forth from my heart and expand to the whole room – wow talk about instant sacred space!!! 

It was only a matter of a few seconds……but suddenly I felt so calm – the anxieties of the last couple of days washed away……. 

Anita came with quite a few health issues….started healing her chakras and then went on to the problem areas…….and yes ….this time the healing flowed…..strong and true……she said she could feel the warmth at every place I gave healing to.- the chakra stones which were cool from the washing turned warm as the energy flowed through them…..as I sent healing – I started seeing her problem areas – some she had told me , some she hadn’t ……it took a whole hour to heal only her chakras and the problem areas…..I have offered her 3-4 more sessions as a part of my seva ….as she definitely needs more than one session for the healing to have any effect…. 

I was still finishing up with Anita when the next person Priyanka came in…..Our member Sheilu also joined in healing her……Priyanka again came with certain specific health issues…….we started off with healing her chakras.- initially I did start with using crystals for her but somehow it did not feel right….the energy was not going through…..started with only hands calling up Reiki and Kundalini Reiki….immediately both Sheilu and me felt the healing going through …….again it took a whole hour to do the basic chakras and the problem areas – the healing was going so strong that it was not really possible to cut it off mid-way……finally we finished…..again offered Priyanka 3-4 healing sessions more – and she too has accepted. 

Now it was time for the meditation…..and I was still getting this very very strong feeling that I should be doing some chakra balancing……asked Sheilu and Priyanka if they were game to try a small chakra balancing exercise – I devised something on the spot – rather I closed my eyes and went with the flow ……seeing each colour of the chakra and visualizing it filling up the chakra till the chakra "felt" stable – that was the basic premise……. 

Then we went on to the Who Am I meditation……to say it was fantastic is an understatement!!!! 

All three of us felt refreshed and energized…….the typical floaty euphoric feeling you get after doing one of Kamalaunty’s meditations! 🙂  Sheiluji saw a peace sign and all Gods and Goddesses ….made us all feel very blessed…. 

By that time it was almost 6 pm …..then since both of us suffer from a backache….we gave each other healing for the back…..I was suffering from a pulled muscle in the left neck-shoulder – so Sheiluji gave me some healing for that……

It was all in all a very very good day…..felt good about doing something purely seva, had an excellent experience and a renewed belief that the healing energy would always be there for you whenever you call upon it……to heal or be healed……
