I met with Pushpa, Padma and Mages for brunch at Chanai 15,
the new Indian restaurant in Section 14, Subang Jaya on Friday 20th
January 2017.
Pushpa wanted to try it as it was a new restaurant. Pushpa and Padma are sisters and Mages is a close friend. The three are members of the Pranic Healing Group in Petaling Jaya.
These three ladies are quite knowledgeable and have many contacts and I learn many things when I am with them including pranic healing.
I had learned the basic skills of pranic healing from Parvathy Amma of Kajang when I first started my healing journey. Pushpa had done Pranic Healing up to Level 2. Mages has done up to Level 3.
We had a very lively conversation about mediums and eventually the conversation turned towards the subject of meditation.
Padma asked told me about a friend who claimed to speak for a deity. She asked why is it that sometimes, a person can remember what is said on behalf of the deity and sometimes, they totally forget.
Based on my experiences with clairvoyants, this was my reply. When a deity or entity comes forth, sometimes it will stand behind the person or medium. The medium normally goes into a deeper altered state – in between alpha and theta.
By his or her non-verbal or verbal invitation, the person gives permission for the entity to merge with the human aura. The entity stands behind the medium and starts giving information. The medium receives the information and has a few choices in delivering it:-
writing down the message and passing it on;
spontaneously channelling the message right away;
or providing the message by saying, I hear the message and see the vision ...
spontaneously channelling the message right away;
or providing the message by saying, I hear the message and see the vision ...
The other situation is – instead of standing behind, the entity enters the human aura
and completely merges with the person’s energy field. There is integration with the energy body and there is a total take-over.
The entity will speak through the person. And very often the medium or channel will most of the time have no memory as the takeover is complete.
These are the times, when the medium can do amazing super human feats which he will normally will not be able to do in normal consciousness.
How is the energy information received?
The chakras are both transmitters and receivers of energy and through his invitation to the perceived entity, the medium opens his energy centres to receive incoming information.
Normally the energy appearing as thoughts or impulses are transmitted from the chakras through the mid-brain containing the pineal, pituitary and hypo-thalamus glands.

Through gradual and repeated practice of meditation and silencing the mind, an energy triangle is formed between these three glands and a communication pathway is activated.
The crown chakra and the rest of the receiving chakras, channel incoming energy through the mid-brain and the medium receives thought forms or impulses which guide him.
So far so good.
Now when the information is received, the question we have to ask is, what is the source of information and how reliable is the channeller or medium.
These two are very important to know and understand as they have implications on the reliability of any message. So we need to know the Meditation Landscape.
Normally the sources of information come from various planes of existence which cannot be seen by the human eye and consist of layers or sheaths.
Depending on who you read there is some confusion about the number of planes that exist. There are differences in Buddhist, Hindu, Theosophy and New Age literature about the number of planes or lokas that exist.
From a practical perspective, we find the work of American Robert Monroe quite enlightening. He has written books about his personal experiences in astral travelling to different planes of existence and he founded the Monroe Institute in USA to help people astral travel. You can find his talks on YouTube.
For practical purposes we will keep our comments to what we have experienced working with clairvoyants and summarise what we know. Be aware that what we know and experience will be different from the experiences of other energy therapists and seers.
The idea is not to be caught in labels or definitions by other people of what the planes are. For instance, a Buddhist teacher told me that there are 33 lokas or planes of existence.
We honour and respect the perspectives of the teachers of the different paths about the metaphysical maps that exist of the planes of existence. Some of it is academic knowledge or information handed down. Some could be information from seers or saints who have travelled these planes.
Notwithstanding this belief, I personally believe there are many of planes of existence out there. In fact, I don’t think there is a limit. I believe it is infinite. Can anyone count the quantity of sand on a seashore?
With that disclaimer, we now proceed to describe what we know and have experienced.
The astral planes
There are three main layers in the astral plane.
Lower Astral
The first plane consists of lower elementals and extremely negative and deceptive thoughtforms which can shape-shift. When thoughtforms start attracting each other, they become larger and larger black vortexes with their own consciousness. So yes, thoughts are alive.
There are reports of people who are drunk and they start to see all kinds of strange ugly blobs in the air ... these are the thoughtforms of anger, sadness, guilt. Many people go to pubs to drink and forget about their problems. Their aura contains all the unhappy colours and when they leave the pub, these combine to form ugly looking colour blobs of unhappy thoughts.
For some people who believe in hell while they are alive – when they move on, through guilt and lack of a positive belief system, they are attracted to their version of hell – and the clairvoyants can see these souls there in flames - created by their own imagination and caused by their own guilt.
A short diversion. We were helping a man who was very sick. The clairvoyant I was working with saw a black dot in his stomach. He was a senior civil servant in a Ministry. We zeroed in on the black dot and it was a lost soul – a male surrounded by a very dark aura.
This dark aura or this black dot was attracting like a magnet more and more toxins and negativity from food and negative thoughtforms in the victim’s body.
The idea is the black dot then gets larger and larger and this black dot then manifests physically in the stomach as a wild growth.
And then this uncontrolled growth starts to spread to the rest of the stomach wall and then the person falls seriously sick – stomach ulcers, and other digestive problems begin to emerge and sometimes cancer.
We opened a communication channel with this man and asked how he got there. He was quite reluctant to admit it but eventually he told us that someone chanted a prayer and this prayer sucked him like a vacuum and then directed him to the victim and he was planted in the stomach.
We told him that he had a choice, either we send him back to where he came from or he changes his belief system and seek help from guiding spirits whose work is to approach lost souls and rehabilitate them in the light realm for rest and recreation.
He said he wasn’t ready to go to a light realm and asked us to send him back to his version of hell. He still felt guilty about his actions from his previous life and thought he deserved to be punished. So we said, ok, that’s if that’s your choice, we chanted our prayers and sent him back to his version of hell.
We have been conditioned by religions teachers to believe in hell so that we don't become bad. Or if we are bad we deserve to go to hell. My personal opinion since I have no recollection of being there ;-) hell does not exist except as an illusion taught to us so that our behaviour can be controlled.
Now, we are aware especially in Malaysia that many cases of illnesses are started
this way. People in high positions in society and politics are very often the
victims.. They fall sick, get medical professionals to help.
Very often, the malady keeps returning even though they seek the best medical treatment. Eventually they have no choice but to resign or retire or they die if the black dot is not removed.
During the meeting Scalfari asked the pope where “bad souls” go, to which he was quoted as responding: “They are not punished. Those who repent obtain God’s forgiveness and take their place among the ranks of those who contemplate him, but those who do not repent and cannot be forgiven disappear. A hell doesn’t exist, the disappearance of sinning souls exists.”
So, put on your own thinking cap and figure out for yourself whether a hell exists or not.

The Vatican has scrambled to clarify comments made by Pope Francis to a well-known Italian journalist that appeared to deny the existence of hell.
While the Vatican conceded that Scalfari, an atheist who struck up a friendship with Francis in 2013, had held a private meeting with the pontiff before the Easter weekend, it said an interview had not been granted.
So, put on your own thinking cap and figure out for yourself whether a hell exists or not.
Mid Astral
The middle plane is mainly populated by people who have died and just moved on or who through lack of positive belief systems, are stuck there. They can be stuck for a short time or a long time, depending on how and when they change their belief systems.
At this level, we also encounter some medicine men or shamans or indigenous tribes people who are perfectly happy in recreating their own world in the mid-astral and they may from time to time visit us and help us if they are willing.
It is quite common for energy therapists to get assistance from this realm.
Higher astral
The higher astral realms are inhabited by deities,
bodhisattvas and other saints, illuminated sages and humanitarians. This is
the realm of the highest light in the astral. From here they look at the human
race – struggling with material desires or spiritual practices.
The loving saints of all religions can be found here.
From time to time they will come and assist those who they feel need help to grow. Or sometimes from this vantage point they will take birth again and again to pass on their teachings of love and compassion.
Angelic realm
Whenever we do our work, the clairvoyants will very often see angels coming to the assistance of people who are very sick or people who have just died. We work with at least seven to eight different clairvoyants and all of them have seen angels coming to the assistance of people who need help.
An Irish lady writer, Lorna Bryne wrote about her experiences with angels. She could see them from the time she was born. Her first book, “Angels in my hair” is a very touching story about her experiences with the angels.
The cosmic realm
For want of another better word, we use the word cosmic because, in our work and meditation, we do see, sense and feel the presence of out-of-this world cosmic energies in human and non-human forms.
Just take a look at the murals on ancient Egyptian pyramids. One can see paintings and statues of humans with lion and bird heads. Where did they come from? All the literature available will indicate that we live in a cosmos teeming with life, both human and non-human.
Astronauts, airline pilots and many observers have seen extraterrestrial life. One of these strange travellers into our world is the famous or infamous Zeta – the short creature with a large head and almond eyes. You can see this Zeta figure in many pictures and cartoons all over the world.
American author, Whitley Strieber wrote a true story about his personal experiences with the Zeta in his book - Communion. They appeared to him and from that point on his whole life perspective changed.
The Zeta is a combination of artificial and biological intelligence.And there have been occasions when we have with the assistance of angels, removed control implants from their victims. The implants are normally metallic and appear to be one inch in height and look like a reverse thumb tack but slightly thicker. These are mainly implanted in the mid-brain to control and provide information to their victims. Though we have heard positive stories about some of the Zetas and how they are here to help mankind with advances in medical technology.
This is a true story. I met an American doctor who was in Malaysia. He comes here to help rich cancer patients. And then hops on a plane back to America. A few friends wanted to start a cancer hospital in Malaysia and I was on the fringe on these group of people. I asked a psychic to check out this famous doctor and she told me that there was an implant in his brain that was off planet. Hmmm. So I informed the potential funders about it and left it to them to decide whether to proceed with the plans.
A doctor in America wrote a book about how he removes ET implants from his patients.
Some of the other extraterrestrial forms are positive and some are negative – indicating that in the dimensions around us, there is still duality. However in the oneness literature, even if some of these ETs are negatively oriented, the principles remain the same.
All beings are emanations of the ONE source of loving creation and we respond the same way to negative ETs the way we respond to dualistic humans – we embrace their duality.
And through embracing them with loving kindness, we appear
on an energy bandwidth that is on a different channel and therefore on a
different vibrational wavelength which generally keeps us apart energetically
from them. It is as if we are on a
different plane of existence. The world of loving kindness which is representative of ONENESS is different
energetically from the world of duality.
The plane of higher consciousness
In some literature this is known as the atmic plane or the
plane of the Oversoul. From what I have read and encountered, positive and
loving communication and guidance comes from this plane of existence.
In some Buddhist meditation practices, practitioners are
encouraged to avoid all levels of the astral and focus only on this plane as
the teachers believe that the astral is either illusionary, karmic or simply
our imagination.
The reason for this belief is that imagination plays an
important role in the astral plane.
Astral beings operate on the principal of instant manifestation. And
many of the lower astral beings can shape shift and pretend to be anyone.
They can pretend to be Shiva, Kali, Tara, Sai Baba, Kuan Yin, Jesus or
Maitreya or angels or some higher being and play tricks on meditation
practitioners who think they are very special. And these lower elementals can
then provide messages, guidance and visions which are deceptive and false and
fool the meditation practitioner.
The false belief that they are special opens a gap at the crown chakra and allows shapeshifting elementals to enter the auric field and have fun and games at the expense of the meditator. The truth is, everyone is special. Just that some are more painful to be with than others! Then they are our mirrors and unknowingly, our teachers.
We are not saying that there are no genuine contacts with these deities, demi-gods or highly illuminated teachers of enlightenment. We are just saying that there needs to be yin-yang balance, humility and discernment when it comes to communicating with these highly evolved beings.
I remember a few years ago seeing a Buddhist meditation practitioner with a clairvoyant. She could see 6 black entities around his crown chakra.
We asked him why he was seeing us. He said that during his meditation practice, he got in contact with Kuan Yin who told him that he was a very important spiritual being.
He told his family about it. They didn’t believe him. There was a lot of drama and eventually his family left him. He lost his job and eventually he had to seek psychiatric help.
When he came to see us, he was on medication and he was quite sad. He had dark shadows under his eyes. The clairvoyant could see that the entities were still at his crown chakra and even though he was taking medication, he was still plagued by the entities.
We said our prayers and removed the entities.
The plane of the Oversoul or Atma is the source of all our intuition and guidance. The ritam of life comes from here. Synchronicities in our destiny. Miracles. Higher spiritual abilities as described by saints known as Siddhis or spiritual powers and blessings come from this source.
To get to this point though is not possible for most of us, unless, there are inborn spiritual gifts that accompany you at birth. Then energy practices like pranic healing, reiki or yoga will naturally awaken those gifts.
Normally the practice combination of serious meditation and yogic or qi gong or Tibetan, Sufi practices are necessary to awaken the siddhis. If you are a newbie training under a Reiki teacher and suddenly during the healing practice, you exhibit spectacular healing abilities or spiritual siddhis or powers, you will frighten the living daylights out of the teacher.
He or she may think you are delusional or possessed. Or if the gifts are genuine, he may get pissed off thinking how come after years of teaching reiki, he doesn't have similar abilities. So another ego game ensues. :-)
I downloaded a free book on Kundalini practice by the founder of the Divine Life Society of Malaysia. He said,you have to find a great guru, follow him into the jungle and learn from him. In the 21st century, it is almost impossible to achieve this quest in our concrete jungle with the constant interruption of the ubiquitous handphones and wireless communication.
The radioactive waves from these cellular phones and wireless equipment dampen our energy fields and act as a deterrent in practicing serious meditation and connecting to the atmic plane. Before meditation, the handphone has to be switched off and the person is asked to sit far away from any household modems, tablets or pcs.
But if the practitioner is serious and disciplined, through daily thoughtless meditation in the morning that puts him in long gaps of silence, he or she can then connect to his or her higher self and absorb and eventually integrate with that source of loving creation. It will probably take some time, a long time or a lifetime.
Note that the above information is based on my experiences with clairvoyants. Other healers or energy therapists will more than likely have their own experiences and knowledge. There are likely to be differences as we are all on different levels of consciousness. The meaning that we take out from any healing session will be based on our own state of knowledge and experience at the time.
We honour and respect the perspectives of all other energy therapists or healers out there.
