Healing in the Way of God
Author's note: There are several methods for spiritual healing, and several famous spiritual healers. I chose to include this technique because it most clearly works at the overlap between energy healing, spiritual healing, and medicine. It synthesizes traditional medical understandings of the body’s anatomy and pathology with the concept of spiritual healing to treat the body, heart, soul and spirit.
Background: Where does this technique come from?
Definition: Advanced energy healing is the art of perceiving and transforming the subtle energies that cause disease and distress. When the healer learns to surrender fully to the guidance of God, the healer becomes a vessel for the love, peace, and mercy of God to flow to the client.
Source: All this information was found at www.jaffeinstitute.org, the website for the Jaffe Institute of Spiritual and Medical Healing, a non-profit organization dedicated to teaching people of all faiths how to heal in God's holy way. Description.
Origin of Method / History: Robert Ibrahim Jaffe, MD is a licensed medical doctor who has given nearly 30,000 healings. Initially, many healings occurred in a medical setting where he conducted both a standard medical and a spiritual/energetic assessment. He studied how the physical and medical aspects of disease correlate with the energetic and spiritual changes he observed. Over the past twenty years, as his clairvoyance and intuitive perception opened fully, he has developed a variety of healing methods that promote rapid transformation and deep healing.
The Institute bases its spiritual curriculum on the Sufi understandings of how to walk into an intimate and holy relationship with God.
Theory: What is energy? What is energy healing?
What energy is worked with? This was not specifically defined on the website. Presumably, God's divine love circulated throughout our bodies.
Energy centers: Website mentions the concept of a relationship of the etheric, emotional and mental bodies to disease. It also states that "you explore the teachings of the heart, soul and causal levels to know and release the need for disease".
What is illness / health? Old emotional wounds and deeply held beliefs create energetic changes in the heart that interfere with receiving Divine love fully. Pictures are stored memories appearing like subtle movies of thought and light carried within the subconscious mind and body. They affect the subtle energy fields of the body and can create disease if they are not cleared. When all the pictures are released, a complete healing occurs and the disease disappears.
What is the mechanism for healing? True spiritual healers understand, awaken, invoke, and radiate pure spiritual light and divine love to transform disease and suffering. Complete healing is becoming one with all that is. To reach this unity, we must lift all the veils of illusion that cover our hearts.
Role of practitioner: Practitioner learns to become the eyes, ears, hands and heart of God in the healing process: seeing with the heart and soul directly into the disease and suffering of people, listening only to the Divine voice within, and learning to transmit the Divine love, so the highest divine essence flows through them. The practitioner helps guide the healing light as it moves through the mind, emotions, and physical body transforming all difficulties and imbalances. Ultimately a healer walks his client more deeply into God's presence during the healing.
Role of person receiving healing: To open their heart more and more deeply to experience the healing light and unconditional love that flows from the heart of God.
Who can heal? Training? Anyone who desires to open, to heal, and to unfold spiritually can learn this form of healing. The Jaffe Institute offers workshops on healing, and has a 2 year program for training and certification as a healer, with the option of attending a third and fourth year of training. A basic understanding of anatomy, physiology, and pathology is integrated with an energetic understanding of how disease is created.
Practitioner preparation: Ultimately, love is the healer. Thus, the fundamental focus of our program is to help students open as deeply as possible to this highest level of love. As you anchor your being in unconditional love, you will increasingly transform yourself into a healing vessel that transmits God's love, peace, and mercy.
Practice: How does a healing session work for this technique?
Beginning a session / Interview: During the interview we evaluate, diagnose and discern the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual components of the disease or difficulty.
A sample assessment and healing: “I then reviewed her complete medical history to identify the social, psychological and emotional factors of her disease. As we talked about the disease, I noticed energies that would strengthen around or within her body at different times.
I prayed for help to become the hands and eyes of God so that I could give the Divine light and love, and see the deeper hidden causes of her disease at the energetic and spiritual levels. Immediately I was surrounded in pure white light. The love of the heavens opened to me and began to flow through me. The eye of my heart opened, and I was shown that the source of the hypertension emanated from her adrenals. I was shown a series of pictures, something like a virtual reality movie. Many things about her childhood beliefs, teenage wounds, and current life pressures were revealed. These persistent and unhealed memories led to the development of her hypertension. Together we watched the movie. I helped her understand how these pictures and experiences from her life had altered first her energetic fields and then her physical body to cause her disease.
Together, we invoked the essence of God. As we
surrendered, the pure white light and love bathed her body. This love
washed away the pictures… all returned to the love… she was filled with peace
and serenity.”
