Yogi Bhajan Lecture: Healing in the Aquarian Age

Excerpts from a lecture by Yogi Bhajan on 9/16/99

You have to understand the process of healing in the Age of Aquarius. You
have to know how to feed the psyche. You have to know your touch is as
good as God’s touch. It is not sensual, sexual, or social. It is a healer’s touch.
You have to beam the psyche into the being of a person to make it
realistic. What will give the healing is the flow of your soul energy.
We call it “psychic flow.” It belongs to your inner self. Please
understand that healing is a process.
First of all, before you touch anybody, you have to make sure that you
are as pure as possible. As a chiropractor, you need to purify your being
before touching your patient, or else you function just like a machine—crick,
crick, crack, crack, and the matter ends. If you don’t purify yourself and heal
yourself of all the inner duality, negativity can prevail through the flow of the
psyche. If this is the case, we stop one disease temporarily, but ultimately
cause permanent disease.
Whether you are a medical doctor or a chiropractor, or other type of healer,
life has a challenge. And that challenge is, you have to be egoless. You
have to just become, without self, a healer, or a doctor, at that
moment, for that purpose, that mission. You cannot have any deviation.
If you deviate, then your psyche will interlock with the patient’s psyche. You
can interlock the body—that I understand. You can tune into the mind, I can
understand that. You can tune in the spirit, that I can understand. But if you
do not tune into the psyche, your entire healing will be useless.
Healing is a process of personal super divinity. It is a power of
touch. You should be so prayerful and pure, and your touch should
be so powerful and impactful, that the entire body of another person
may change to the desirable end results. Without this, as healers, we
get burnt out. That’s why a lot of people do not last long in the health and
healing professions.
Your mind should be fresh and beautiful. If your domestic atmosphere is one
of fighting, quarreling, and negation, it will interfere in the process of your
healing, because your psyche will not penetrate and reach the target.
You are a cause, not an effect. You cause the charge to affect healing and if
your charge is very low-grade voltage, and your psyche is not fully with you,
the effect will be very low-grade, too.
As a healer the first thing to tell every patient is to breathe deeply. Help your
patients get rid of shallow breathing. Shallow breathing means no oxygen, no
workload-carrying habits, no endurance, no patience.
Secondly, wash your hands after seeing each patient. This is not only for
hygiene, but also to change the energy.
When you finish with a patient you should take a break and resettle
yourself. It is not about how many people you see each day, it is
about how many people you heal. There is a difference between healing
and seeing.
Healing is nothing but the play of one’s personal psyche. It comes
from dedication and devotion. It comes from the highest state of
purity, and it comes from the power which is God. It’s not what you
think it is. It is a caliber to collaborate with the flow of the psyche of
two.
