Here is an interview from the author of "Your hands can heal you" that may answer some of your questions, rockchick...

Master Stephen Co interviewed by Miriam Knight

Q: Master Co, you come from a Tibetan/Chinese tradition. Could you give us a bit of historical perspective on the use of Prana in healing?

A: Sure, prana is called chi in Chinese; Ruach, or the breath of life, in the Old Testament; and basically it’s the life force that sustains us. So in China, since ancient times it is chi that governs people’s lives and health.

Acupuncture, acupressure and herbal medicine were used to simulate chi in the body and Feng Shui was used to manipulate this chi or prana in the environment. In Japan it is called Qi or Ki, so you have disciplines like Akkido and Reiki.

So it has been around for thousands and thousands of years, and what my teacher did was to actually synthesize this into a very simple, step by step, practical system that anybody could learn and apply immediately.

So according to Master Co, the average person can learn this and apply it immediately....

Q: So you have made it accessible to anybody?

A: You just need to be able to do the proper breathing technique, the proper either visualization or mind intent in order to pull this energy into your body and do what you want with it. What people don’t realize is that energy is everywhere. So if you really think about it, if you just knew how to pull it in, anybody and everybody has access to it.

Here is some of what you can get from the book:

Q: How far can the reader go just with your book?

A: They can learn how to cleanse themselves and their environment. In one chapter we give instructions on the 24 most common ailments which they will be able to use immediately. They will be able to energize themselves, have more inner peace. It is basically a comprehensive system that they can use for the more simple cases. There are references to more advanced books and to the free healing clinics that we have all over the country. We are here to share what we know so that everyone can benefit.

And;

Q: In your book, Your Hands Can Heal You, you talk about Six Steps to self healing. Is this what you are talking about when you say that people just need to learn the techniques?

A: Exactly. These are techniques on how to deal with your emotions; techniques on how to do deep breathing to be able to pull in more energy; how to remove the used up or dirty energy that is stored in the body; techniques to supercharge your body through physical exercises. And then you have meditation, and so on. These are basically "cookbook" approaches. One thing we really want to stress is that the easiest way to access these energies is to just follow these simple, step by step techniques. That’s really what the book is for.

This is a bit different from reiki;

Q: It is interesting that many modalities like Reiki and the Reconnection require an initiation, but you seem to be de-mystifying yours.

A: You know, I can understand why they do that. With Reiki I have over 500 Reiki masters that come to me for my courses. And after I interviewed them, basically I figured out that the symbols are ways to tap into that energy if you can’t do it yourself. Now with pranic healing, we understand that prana is everywhere and you can tap into it at any time and just pop it into other people or back into your body to heal yourself.

Some background on the origin;

: You talk about your teacher; was this Grandmaster Choa Kok Sui?

A: Yes. He is the modern founder of Pranic Healing, and I learned it from him in 1988.

Q: How did he come to have this inspiration?

A: He had been studying many different healing modalities and spiritual practices for 30 or 40 years. He is an engineer, like me, and has a tendency not to believe things without proof. So what he did was to collect all these teachings from many cultures and traditions, and sat down with a medical staff and also some high level clairvoyants – people who could see and feel energy – and actually experimented with each of those techniques to sort out what is real, what works and what is pure superstition. And from there, also with the inspiration of his teacher, who had been guiding him the whole time, he came up with Pranic Healing in 1987 in its present form.

By the way, think about the "energy ball" technique I posted and how you breathe into it and how you put energy into it and send it out, and how you can use that to influence even seduce someone from a distance; and then read about what Master Co is saying about energy in the interview; closely related stuff....



That's part of the interview, I hope it answers some of your questions and the other poster's too, rockchick....
