INTRODUCTION TO PRANIC HEALING

Pranic healing is an ancient science and art of healing that utilizes prana or life energy to heal the whole physical body. It also involves the manipulation of prana and bioplasmic (energy) matter of the patient’s body.

According to Hindu tradition, prana is life force; the basic constituent and source of all life and the universe. It is the energy responsible for keeping the body alive and healthy. This energy is recognized in many other cultures and known by different names such as Chi in Chinese, Ki in Japanese, Mana in Polynesian, Pneuma in Greek, and Ruah in Hebrew. The main sources of prana, available in abundance, are air, sun, earth and the divine. Prana can be projected to another person for healing.

Pranic healing is based on two fundamental laws:

The law of self-recovery: The body is general has the capacity to heal itself.

The law of life force or prana: For life to exist, the body must have life energy. The healing process can be accelerated by increasing life energy on the affected part and on the entire body.

Man’s whole physical body is actually composed of two parts: the visible physical body and the invisible energy body which enables life energy to circulate all over the body. The energy body is generally referred to as the ‘human aura’, the ‘bioplasmic body’ or the ‘etheric twin’ because of its close relationship to the physical body. Through Kirilian photography it is possible to study, observe and take pictures of aura of different objects and also to record changes in the physical, emotional or mental states of a person. A pranic healer, by feeling or scanning the energy body, can detect the disease in the aura of a patient even before it manifests itself in the physical body.

Pranic healing essentially involves treating the energy body. By healing the energy body, the visible physical body gets healed in the process. For example, by decongesting and energizing the head area, headaches can be removed in a few minutes.

Pranic healing is accomplished through very simple procedures which are easy to learn. The first process is cleansing, to remove the devitalized diseased energy in the whole body or in the affected part and to remove blockages in the energy channels. The second process is energizing to replenish and reinvigorate the body with fresh prana or vital energy. This is done by projecting prana to the patient’s energy body and simultaneously drawing in air prana from the surroundings with the help of the hand energy centers (chakras).

When the processes of cleansing and energizing are complete, the circulation of energy throughout the body is improved and the body’s innate ability to heal itself is greatly enhanced. Sometimes, just the removal of energy blockages and imbalances is sufficient to normalize the energy flowing through the body to the point where the body’s healing process is suddenly accelerated, producing miraculous recoveries. Pranic healing has been demonstrably effective not only in healing both physical and psychological ailments but it can also help prevent illness by harmonizing one’s physical, emotional, mental and spiritual energies. It strengthens the immune system and enhances the vitality and quality of one’s life, health and happiness.

Pranic healing uses no drugs or gadgets; it is non-invasive and requires no physical contact. It can be used for self healing and healing other people even thousand miles away. It can be effectively combined with any other form of treatment. For developing countries, where millions of people live in dire poverty and do not have access to medical care, pranic healing is proving a great blessing.
