For centuries, doctors, healers and shamans used a combination of physical and mental (many would say "psychic"), medicine to cure their patients.   It has only been over the past two centuries that we have lost the mental aspect of healing, giving way to the advances of medical science.    However some doctors are willing to accept that the state of mind of a patient can effect the recovery process.   Some believe that Psychic healers concentrate on this aspect, and help the sick to heal themselves providing a psychic energy to boost this self healing power.  But what about spiritual healing?

Mental Healing: 

Mental Healing, is probably the most practised form of healing carried out today.   This is the healing that is usually carried out within your church healing groups, and in some cases, even practised within the authodox church.    In ancient times this was known as the 'King's Touch', but for most it is generally known as the laying on of hands., although, this is not always the case and some movements frown on the fact that you might make contact with the person being healed.   Even standing behind them and placing your hands on their shoulders  is not the correct or approved way.

However, some healers prefer to work by contact, even if it is only placing their hands on the shoulders of the person they are healing.   Personally, I start in this way and usually move around the auric field of the person, until guided to where their problem or problems are.   I make no contact with the person, and when you consider that my eyes are closed throughout the healing process, I think it remarkable that no contact is made.   I should also point out, that I never, ever, practice healing on anyone, unless there is another person in the room, and preferably a female.  This is purely a protective issue, for both the healer and those being healed. 

Because of the issues of political correctness in everything we do to-day in this country, and within the spiritualist movement, my way of healing is not allowed within the confines of churches or anything connected to the movement.  I am also required to be registered with one bureaucratic agency or another, who choose to elevate themselves on to pinicles of grandeur, whilst dictating man made laws which can only restrict the passage of spiritual healing energies.   Energies I might add, that are the gifts of the spirit world,  (not the dictorial bureaucrats,) and given to those who spirit choose to use as healers, and to pass on freely, those beautiful healing energies, to those who are in need of them.  (I'll get off my soap box now.)

During the healing process, some healers like to have some gentle music playing in the background, this helps to create an ambience of tranquility to the proceedings.   It also helps the medium to relax and allows the healing guide to make a better connection, and of course the better the connection the better the results.  Spiritual healing requires no participation from those receiving the healing, not even for the person to be present.   This is done by what is termed 'absent healing' which will be explained later.   Of those present, for what they call "Contact Healing", (another contradiction,)  all that is asked, is that they relax and be of an open mind.   Spiritual healing is carried out by the Spirit Guide of the medium and requires no physical skills on the part of the medium, only to be attuned enough to their guide, to know where the healing is to be directed.   As in mental mediumship the healer is just the person who works between the two worlds, just like the telephonist on the company switchboard, making the connections when requested to do so.

Absent Healing:

Absent healing is healing that is sent to the person requiring the healing.   The best way to explain this I think is, try to think of it as a radio wave which leaves a radio station by being transformed into those waves and frequencies and passing around the earth until arriving at you radio where it is turned back into understandable sound that you can listen to.   Absent healing is requested by the healer and send out on the ethers, just like radio waves, to the person who the healing has been asked for.   Here we have a vital difference to normal healing.   Anyone can send out healing, it is all to do with thinking about that person and sending them your love and asking for them to be made well again.    There is nothing magical about it.   It works on the love vibration, and your desire to send that love to them. 

Even with the world in the state that it is in, I personally ask for healing every night, for Mother earth and her plants, all the children who are lost and sick, the animal kingdom, all those people who are sick in the mind, for those who have committed what we might call unpardonable sin.   Why?  Because what right have I to offer judgement.   Who knows? I might find myself walking along the same pathway one day, maybe not in this life time, but it is not impossible that in another life.  It would be nice to think that there was someone sending hope to me.  If every person in the world was to follow a simple procedure of sending healing love onto the ethers, every night, to be used in what ever way the God force decided to use it, I truly believe that the world would be a different place.

Can the power of the mind replace the scalpel in the operating room?  The most obvious answer to that question is "No".   But wait !

Psychic Surgery is the term given to the use of paranormal surgery, which uses only bare hands or very simple instruments.   The way this happens, is that the psychic surgeon's hands enter the body of the patient, and extract whatever is causing the problem from them.   This sometimes comes out as lumps of clotted blood which are then disposed off.   There is no requirement of anaesthetics or any other mind relaxing or altering drugs.

There are those who believe that this cure comes under the term "The Placebo Effect", the patient fully believing that the psychic surgeon has healed them, when in effect, there belief is so great that their own  mind has healed there body.     So do those who claim to have this ability really possess a power beyond the concept of our imagination.

Jose Pedro De Freitas, was a Brazilian psychic surgeon, who was known thought the world as "Arigo".   Arigo first discovered his strange powers when he was sitting with friends who were gathered around the bed of a woman dying of an inoperable tumour in her uterus.     A priest had arrived and was giving her her last rites as her death was expected at any moment, when suddenly and unaware of what he was doing, Arigo dashed from the room and returned with a kitchen knife.   He ordered every one to stand back, then plunged the knife into the womans virgina and twisted it several times.   He then inserted his hand and pulled out a huge tumour, the size of a grapefruit, then fell back into the chair and began to cry.   The grieving relatives stood in shock and a doctor was sent for.   The patient had felt no pain whatsoever and never even bled.   The doctor confirmed that Arigo had removed the tumour and that the woman had not been bleeding.   She made a complete recovery.

Under the control of Dr Adolphus Fritz, a german doctor who had died in 1918, Arigo continued to administer magical cures on hundreds of patients, and always working in a trance like state, and using only an unsterilized pocket knife which he would wipe on his shirt before the next operation.   His patients felt neither pain nor fear, there was little or no blood loss, and the wound where he had stabbed them, would heal completely within a couple of days.

Arigo performed over 500,000 operations in a five year period, without ever accepting payment for his services.   Arigo had no explanation for his strange gift and more often then not was completely unaware of what he was doing.  He gave thanks to only Christ and his German Doctor Fritz.   His methods were bizarre and he even fainted when shown a video of himself performing an operation.  Needless to say Arigo helped and cured hundreds of thousands of people that the medical profession had written off as incurable.

This is just one example of many psychic surgeons that have worked on the earth plane under the control of  so called "Dead" doctors.   In more recent times there was the man and wife team who came from the Philippines to Stanstead Hall back in the late 1970's, and performed hundreds of operations.   She was born in London and her first experience was when she witnessed an accident where one of those hurt was bleeding horrendously.   She was only eleven at the time and she heard a voice telling her to put her hand on the wound.   By the time the ambulance had arrived the bleeding had stopped and the wound was starting to heal.

And so, Is psychic surgery a fact, or is it fiction?   It can hardly be put into the placebo effect syndrome because there is to much evidence to prove otherwise.   I could not close this section without bringing reference to our own George Chapman, like me, a liverpudlian by birth, he became world famous for his healing both in trance and mental.   His guide and mentor was Dr William Lang.   George, during his lifetime, proved beyond doubt, the existence of the late Dr Lang, even to the fact that Dr Lang's daughter gave statement to the fact that it was her father who was working through George Chapman.   Dr Lang specialised in Cancer cures which he continued with while working through George.

Reiki is a form of psychic healing that was developed in Japan.   The word Reiki is a Japanese word meaning "universal life-force energy".   It is a system of channelling that energy to someone for the purpose of healing.   According to most records it was discovered by Dr Mikao Usui in the late nineteenth century.   Usui was a Christian Minister in Japan, and made it his mission in life to discover the way in which Jesus had healed the sick.   He studied theology in America and read Buddhist teachings but all to no avail.   After years of study he had come to a basic understanding of the principles of healing and decided to go further he would require an in depth meditation.   He informed his brother monks in the monastery that he was going to the top of the mountain to meditate for twentyone days, and that if he did not return after that time, they were to come and recover his body.

He went to the mountain and collected twentyone stones with which he could count the days.   As each day passed he would throw away one of the stones.  On the night of the twentieth day he threw away the last stone having discovered absolutely nothing.   During that night, he saw a ball of light on the horizon.   This light was slowly approaching him, and as it got closer, his instinct was to run away, but he realised that this might be just what he was waiting for.   Eventually the light hit him square on the forehead.   As the light struck him he was taken on a mystical journey, and shown bubbles of all the colours of the rainbow enclosing the symbols of Reiki.   When Usui returned from the mountain, he found that he had an incredible power to heal.   On his first day back at the monastery he healed the broken toenail of a monk, an ailing tooth, his own starvation, and the abbot's sickness which had kept him bed ridden for months.   These have become known as the first four miracles of Reiki.

Usui wanted to use his new-found abilities to help others, and spent the next seven years in the poorest parts of Tokyo, healing the sick and helping the poor to improve their lives.   After the seven years and realising that he had not taught gratitude along with the healing, and only focused on the physical illness without dealing with the spiritual,  he returned to his monastery.  After some time meditating in the monastery he decided to travel around the countryside, teaching both physical and spiritual healing.

It was during this time that he met Dr Chujiro Hayashi, a navel commander.   Hayashi was very impressed with the conviction and sincerity of Usui, and asked if he could accompany him on his travels.   After Usui passed to spirit, Hayashi took over his work, opening a clinic in Tokyo near to the imperial palace.   The clinic consisted of eight beds in a large room, with two Reiki practitioners per patient.   One would treat the head, the other would treat the stomach area, then both would treat the patient's back.   Dr Hayashi developed what is now the most common form of Reiki, a type of treatment using specific hand placements over the body.

Hayashi committed suicide in 1940, shortly before Japan attacked Peal Harbor.   As a reserve officer, Dr Hayashi knew that he would be called to duty and would then be responsible for killing many people.   He could not live with this thought and so ended his life.   Before he did so, he passed on the Reiki teachings to Mrs Hawayo Takata a Hawain of Japanese decent.   Mrs Takata has widely promoted Reiki throughout the world, and is now one of the most widely known forms of healing through direct application of Chi, the underlying force that the Chinese believe makes up the universe.

How it Works:

Reiki applies an energy quality commonly known as "vibration", and is very simply performed.   A practitioner simply places his hands upon the person to be healed with the intent for the healing to occur, and then the energy begins to flow.   Practitioners believe that this energy form has its own intelligence and knows where it should go within the body in order for the healing to take place.   Nonetheless, there is a prescribed set of hand positions traditionally taught which give good coverage over the recpient's entire body.

The latest development in Reiki techniques is the most psychic of them all.   The laying on of hands is one thing, but practitioners are now able to perform "remote healing".   To the world of the spirit there is no such thing as time or space.   The world that we see around us is only a small fragment of that which exists and since time and space do not exist there is no limit to what reiki practioners can achieve, and they can bring healing to any patient regadless of time or distance any where in the world.
