One of the people I worked on yesterday was a Methodist minister. I found him to be a very interesting person, and we had a wonderful conversation while I worked.
First off, my client wasn’t always a minister. He started out as an aerospace engineer working for NASA in the 1960s. He programmed computers. This was so long ago, that IBM computers filled a room, and he programmed in machine language. Later, they taught him FORTRAN which was the one scientific computer language at the time. (It was one of the languages I learned when I was in school. At that time, a desktop computer and internet were a dream of science fiction.)
At some point, he decided he wanted to go to divinity school. He decided that his calling wasn’t computers. One of the things he told me though was that his left brained approach to learning was what got him through divinity school to become a minister. (See, so us left brained people have our place in the right brained areas that we choose to be in.)
We talked a lot about religion, morality, and spirituality. It was interesting to see that we saw many things the same way if not through different angles. I was really surprised when he told me about taking away headaches.
He said that when people he knew had headaches, they would always come to see him. He would sit down with them, and then pray for a couple of minutes until their headache was gone. Interesting huh? Now, when people come to me with a headache, I wave my hand in front of their head and pull out the negative energy that caused it.
Now, in praying, the minister is invoking a higher power, or so he believes. He is asking God to remove the headache. But maybe in his asking, God is working through him and giving him the ability to remove the headache. Is there truly a difference?
When I take someone’s headache away, I am extending my energies in, and using them to pull out the negative energies of the headache. Now, I know that what I can do comes from above, God or Goddess or the Source. Now, is my deity going in and doing the work and letting me think that I am doing it? Or are they working through me to do the work? Or is what I’m doing a form of prayer? You see, I don’t truly believe that I am doing the work. But if I am doing the work, it is what someone wants me to do. So isn’t that still the same thing. They are giving me the ability to do this.
I work in energy. I am allowed to work in energy. I do what I’m allowed to do, nothing more. My client, the minister, works in prayer. Prayer is energy. So, although we are both from different backgrounds, using different methods, and looking at something differently, we are both doing the same thing. Cool huh?
When my client left, he told me he enjoyed the massage and the conversation. So did I.
