Energy is God’s flow. It can be in form of flow of words, flow thoughts, flow of emotions, flow of aashirwad (blessings), flow of freshness and flow of love.
Energy can be acquired by:
• Looking into the eyes of a spiritual person.
• The fingers and toes of spiritual person are always radiating energy.
• Maximum energy is radiated from palms of a person.
• Energy can be delivered without presence of a person if the person can tune with the channel of the energy giver. The person who gives energy gets energy from the cosmos directly through the brahmanand (crown chakra). Thus, the flow of energy is infinite and constant in the energy giver.
• Giving energy to an aspirant is absolutely essential so that he can progress in the path of sadhana. Without this intervention, the flow will stop and progress in sadhana is slow.
• When energy is given to a person, the energy goes from the eyes or hand straight to the chakras where the flow of energy is blocked. This leads to the opening up of the chakras and kundalini flows properly. This process is known as chakra shuddhi (purity of the chakras). This is absolutely essential in the path of sadhana, be it Advaita (non-duality), Dvaita (duality), Bhakti (devotion), Jnana (knowledge), or karma (action). Without chakra shuddhi, further process is not possible. After Chakra Shuddhi, seeds of certain positive vibrations such as bhakti, concentration, happiness, charity, aacharan (right behaviour) can be put in the person. Kundalini will then lead to germination of these seeds.
• Sometimes energy may be given straight to the chakra where energy is blocked. This is an intense method where energy will definitely release the block.
• If energy is given through hand, sometimes the aspirant's thoughts, doubts may block the flow of energy further and that energy will not reach the chakra.
• Ramana Maharshi used to give this energy through his eyes and by getting the aspirant to tune to his channel mentally. This process cannot be learned. It comes “Sahaj” (simply naturally). Thus, there is no step that one learns to become an energy giver.
• This energy can be used as healing power, to decrease pain and wipe out negative karma.
• With the use of bhasma (holy ash) intermingled with this energy and positive thoughts, a very potent mixture of positive “atom bomb” is created which when applied explodes energy seeds into the person. This is what Sai Baba used to do. This is also the reason behind the application of bhasma.
• Reiki is a very minute form of energy deliverance. However, it is not effective as it does contain energy received straight from the cosmos. It contains the energy of an individual which is limited.
