Any myths / do’s and don’ts associated with Pranic Healing?
One major myth that seems to have been propagated regarding Pranic Healing is that it is not safe as the healer gets contaminated. This is definitely false. Contamination of the healer is definitely a problem in many forms of energy healing. Therefore, when laying down the modern techniques of Pranic Healing, Master Choa was extremely careful to ensure that steps were incorporated in pranic healing to ensure that contamination is avoided. Of course, there are many cases where a practitioner of Pranic Healing does not follow the basic guidelines and ends up affected. But this is as much the fault of Pranic Healing as saying the car is at fault for a bad driver having an accident! Proper practise of Pranic Healing (following the 7 basic steps of Pranic Healing as taught in the course) and regular meditation prevent any sort of contamination – which can be verified by many senior healers. Another popular myth is that Pranic Healing is tough to learn. Admittedly, Pranic Healing is not as elementary as some other healing techniques around. But it is definitely more effective. Just as many reiki healers have found that they get much better results when their application of reiki is preceded by cleansing as taught in Pranic Healing. Pranic Healing is extremely scientific and systematic in its approach. The healer is given detailed knowledge about the energy field, chakras and how they play a role in a person’s health. We are taught Pranic breathing, scanning, self healing and distance healing apart from the effect of karma on healing, character building and not least, the Meditation on Twin Hearts (and all this at the basic level – the advanced and psychotherapy levels of pranic healing offer one the chance to learn even more). As Master Choa says, learning and practising Pranic Healing takes as much concentration as reading a paper. Regularity of practise is definitely a requirement to become proficient in pranic healing, but one’s efforts are duly rewarded in the form of better health (physical, emotional and mental), a changed attitude to life (leading to greater harmony, less stress, better interpersonal relationships) and the ability to heal oneself and other of many ailments.
