Need for a Multi-Dimensional Healing Approach
Lot of healing techniques like Reiki, creative visualizations, tapping techniques (EFT), Bach flower remedies are talked about by many. Yet, each one of them has got their own limitations.
How to integrate all the healings into one, so that simultaneous healing of physical body, pranic body and mental body can take place?
Affirmation doesn’t work all the time
There are only 20 affirmations to cover from head to foot and these affirmations will cover all the diseases. Our life is full of fear, anger and guilt, which can be handled by these affirmations indirectly.
Sometimes affirmations do not work. If only by affirmation everyone can be happy and healthy, then we do not need any other healing process.
The affirmations work only on the mental body.However, if the mental body is already full of unwanted things then you will have (internal) resistance and therefore, affirmations cannot succeed.
In addition, we will say the affirmations just for 2 or 3 days and then leave them by saying that it is not working. It means the garbage is more in our mental body.
Impact of healing techniques on us
Affirmations and mantras work only on the mental body.
Creative visualization, light healing, divine healing etc works mostly on the emotional body and partly on the Etheric body.
The traditional Reiki symbols 1, 2 and 3 work mostly on the mental body. Karuna Reiki symbols work on the emotional body.
Color works on the emotional body.
Etheric body is otherwise called as Pranic body. Congestions in Etheric body can be removed by breathing techniques i.e. by Pranayama.
Flower remedies work 90% on mental body and 10% on emotional body.
If disease sets in the physical body then one has to take some medicines in the forms of allopathic, Siddha etc.
Since there are so many healing methods and even then there may be a failure, we have to analyze as to why there is a failure.
Tapping (EFT) also has its own limitations
Tapping is the only thing which works effectively both on the mental and the emotional bodies.
However, there is a limitation for tapping. The progress depends on how aware we are.
After doing continuous tapping we may feel that nothing has happened because we are not aware about what is its impact inside our mind.
Tapping is one way of meditation by going deeper and deeper into the mind. Since we are all shallow, we do not understand what happens inside and hence there is limitation in tapping.
Because in each of the techniques, the healing takes place in different spheres of the body, there is a need for all the healing methods (one time or other).
Improve Your Decision-Making
Mudra Healing
Be in the following Mudra for 30 minutes:
- Thumb touching the index finger (both hands)
- The rest of the fingers at the base of the thumb.
- The index finger induces thoughts. It will be from a higher perspective, which was created by placing the other three fingers at the base of thumb.
- When the other fingers are placed at the base of the thumb, the opinion of thoughts will be devoid of emotions and ego.

Bach Flower Remedies
When you do not know what to do – a feeling similar to the one when you are at the crossroads, not knowing which direction to take – WILD OAT is the remedy.
“This is not the job I want”, saying this if any one goes on quits his job then he needs Wild Oat. It is also for a person who is dissatisfied with every job or work on hand.
E.g., let us say, you are visiting the supermarket for dress materials, and you don’t know where to go – first floor, second floor this way or that way and so on? What clothes to choose – churidar, saris etc.? You need WILD OAT. It will take you to the section you need to go.
After going to the section, you like a particular sari. Instead of confirming the purchase, you ask the opinion of your friends about your choice, who are there with you. Each one will give a different view and your confusion will increase. Take CERATO and you inner intuition will guide you properly.
On the other hand, if you are confused about two different choices you have made, instead of asking others you’re tossing within your mind not able to select the sari, you need another Bach flower remedy SCLERANTHUS. This is for one who vacillates between two choices.
Before going to any shop take GENTIAN and HONEY SUCKLE – to avoid any disappointment and regret.
Emergency Situations
Bach Flower Remedies
Rescue Remedy
Rescue Remedy is a combination created by Edward Bach himself. It is a combination of ROCK ROSE, IMPATIENS, CLEMATIS, STAR OF BETHLEHEM and CHERRY PLUM.
For any emergency situation, Bach Flower RESCUE REMEDY is the remedy. This will always help the patient.
Two days before the surgery, you will be admitted in the hospital; they will do all checkups; start taking RESCUE REMEDY then.
This is useful to get the patients out of coma.
Bleeding will stop if you splash RESCUE REMEDY water over the bleeding or intake the pills of Rescue Remedy.
Whenever a function is organized, you don’t want any children to fall and be in the hospital. In western corner of the house (or the hall) if you put two to three pills of RESCUE REMEDY in a glass of tumbler, no untoward incident will happen to children.
For mental as well as physical shock; the surgical wound will be healed faster especially for diabetes patients: STAR OF BETHLEHEM.
Other remedies
Give WILD ROSE to develop enthusiasm and jest for life, which crucial for anybody to be alive in an emergency situation.
Whenever you go to a railway station or airport, if you are afraid that there might be a bomb blast, or a terrorist attack then chant ASPEN. You will safely reach your destination.
If anybody – close friends or relatives, is admitted in the hospital we will get restless. In this case RED CHESTNUT and RESCUE REMEDY will help you to come out of your worries.
If a person is admitted in the ICU, chant RESCUE REMEDY, SWEET CHESTNUT and RED CHESTNUT. They will be discharged and placed in the normal ward. Even if they don’t get discharged immediately, it can help the patient get relieved from ICU faster. If you can go into ICU keep the paper with the name Rescue Remedy written under the pillow of the patient.
Patient is beyond hopeless state and one comes to a conclusion, ‘God alone can help me’. Doctors had given up and say that the patient will be alive only for 24 hrs. In such a situation, a patient will come out of danger if he is prescribed Bach Flower Remedy SWEET CHESTNUT. Write the patient’s name and circle it with SWEET CHESTNUT and RESCUE REMEDY.
Mantra Healing
LALITHAM CHANDRASEKARAM, if chanted alone, works like the Bach Flower remedy, Rescue Remedy, during emergency situations. We don’t want somebody to be like a vegetable in the ICU room. We want them to come out alive and do well. Then, chant “LALITHAM SADASHIVAM LALITHAM CHANDRASEKARAM”
Violet Flame Prayer
Do the VIOLET FLAME PRAYER or MEDITATION, when the situation goes out of control and things are not manageable. It helps you to manage the situation. It’s a prayer for emergency.

Love thy neighbors even if they are a nuisance
LLM
My neighbors are very inconsiderate. We live in apartments. The one on next to me filled the corridor with their own stuffs and smelly shoes, make a lot of noise shouting at one end of corridor to the other, openly criticizes us and do damage to our plant tearing the leaves (we only put one pot of plant and door mat at my door and nothing else not even shoes). We only keep quiet, to maintain peace.
The neighbor above us, throw litter into our house and make a lot of noises (such as jumping in wee hours of the night after 12 am), and also hang wet laundry above our laundry. On one case, we even saw a packet of urine caught on our window.
We really don’t know what to do.

LLM
May I ask how many times do I need to chant the flower remedy each time? Do I have to chant everyday or just once?
Do I do the forgiving exercise and thank them everyday also?
The picture of Pisces can be just the symbols or need to have images of fish?
At the last sentence, you mentioned praying to the mother. ‘The Mother’ refers to?
Naran
When the problem comes, you can chant.
Chanting what is given is just an alignment with the divine. Forget your identity. Just merge with the Grace Words which are nothing but divine. Enjoy chanting. Do it any number of times.
These words do not bring about any result. They want you to surrender. Surrender to the divine and start chanting. While chanting do not think about anything.

The mother means Aurobindo mother. That divine mother only knows how to drive out the unwanted elementals. Just say once to her daily.
