What I write in my website is not a product of quantitative research. I have never been a fan of sampling! I don’t believe in the One-Size-Fits-All scheme.

I write about individual cases (usually my own). Although what I write about may be considered by mere anecdotal accounts by traditional scientists and researchers I believe that the individual case has value.

Dr Christine Page lamented that  medical science researches account for the 80% but nothing is said about the 20%. In a previous essay I wrote that I have always been diagnosed as marginal or not belonging to the 80%. Dr Page made the statement about health but I take the liberty of applying it to my life and my writings.

I remember how my school and the Institutional Church (The term is borrowed from Fr Belita) were very dismissive of signs and omens yet the Bible and the Church herself use a lot of signs and omens. The rainbow was the sign of God’s covenant with his people after the deluge. The Church still allows people to wait for a rose during a novena to St Therese. There are a lot more.

The above paragraph makes me bold enough to see hope in the horizon for my dream which I wrote about in a previous essay.

Jean Netario Cruz a certified Integrative Wellness coach told me weeks ago: Choose the right thought to hasten your healing. The mind sends commands after it receives the information from the senses so better make sure that your senses are sending the right information to your brain.”

Somebody posted on Facebook a message from the pope asking people to be open to the future.

Encouraging me to propagate self-healing is Fr. Belita: A healthy individual has a body which is his/her own best healer. Through evolutionary development
the body has mastered the art of survival without our knowing it or being conscious of it. This it does through the autonomic responses in the body.” This is similar to what “Energy Prescription” teaches. This refers to the Indigenous Self.

Our schools, the Institutional Church even some medical doctors etc have a lot of misperceptions (Dr Lipton’s term) about our present world. Darwin and Newton have become irrelevant. Watch the video of Dr Bruce Lipton on YouTube entitled”Top Scientist: “People perish for the lack of this hidden knowledge…”

After 6 years or more of Ho’oponopono a la Joe Vitale, I choose to be liberated. Enough of constant “erasing” of programs! I still like to listen to the Ho’oponopono songs on YouTube or from my Timeline on Facebook but only when I want to not because I have to.

I am grateful for Ho’oponopono. It stopped me from blaming anybody (including myself) or anything for problems, disappointments etc.

I know there is another version of the Ho’oponopono. I learned about it from the interview by Lilou Mace. It stresses acceptance rather than forgiveness. The interviewee was Aunty Mahealani.

After 2 years of following Esther Hicks I choose to be liberated. Enough monitoring of my thoughts and feelings to ensure I don’t  fall off from the VORTEX.

I gave up the nightly examination of conscience learned from the Catholic Catechism because it made me prone to depression. Following Esther Hicks has been like the nightly examination done even during day time.

I am grateful to Esther Hicks’ concept of “expansion”. It pushed me to out of my comfort zone to try new things even at age 72. It made me decide to travel to Singapore and London even if I still walk with a cane. I was blessed with a lot of kindness at the airports. The travel last April-May was more memorable than the 2 previous ones.

George Sison is kinder. He recommends using the mantra beads at least 3 times a day, not unceasingly as recommended by the bible, not constantly like the Ho’oponopono nor like the Hicks way.

Neale Walsch is my favorite. He has liberated me from the clutches of an angry God. He has no instruction on how to be Who-I-Really -Am. After allhe wrote about God not having a plan for me nor for anybody else.

Dr Christine Page has written comprehensively about how our various “bodies” influence our pathway to spirituality. Enlightening to say the least but she also expects a lot of monitoring.

Lynn Grabhorn used the 12 Steps and our thoughts as doors to God. Her humorous style made me think her pathway to spirituality would be easier. Her instructions are not as mandatory as the Ho’oponopono or the Hicks way, but tedious just as well.

Next to Neale Walsch I would rather use Wayne Dyer’s lived example but he “left” his body last August 29. Wayne like George Sison was not dogmatic.

The indigenous self is the self we are born with. According to “Energy Prescription” : “All infants experience unimpeded access to vital energy that sustains them. They live in primal contact with nature through their feelings, impulses, perceptions, and relationships. he infant’s marvelous vital intensity and the joyous, uninhibited play of young children demonstrate the incredible life energy that is meant to flow through us all. Children live in the flow as long as their ital needs are met, their natural life expressions are accepted, and they are loved, respected, cared for, and are protected from danger, pain and trauma.”

So what went wrong How come our pathways to spirituality have become difficult?

Grouds and Childe wrote: “From infancy on, each of us undergoes a process of systemic indoctrination that turns us into socialized personalities.”

“We must integrate these two [the indigenous and socialized selves] in order to fulfill our human potential and our evolutionary purpose.”

Somehow I suspect this explains Original Sin which ancient people had no words to explain – the split between our God self and the lower socialized self/nature. Neither Psychology nor Philosophy existed as yet.

This essay is best read with me previous essays: “Who We Are Medically, “Kingdoms of Man”, “Astral Body”, “Etheric Body” and “Pain Body.

Dr Page wrote: “the energy entering each chakra from the different bodies intermingle until a combined force passes into the ETHERIC BODY.”

“This body, consisting of its network of ‘fluid energies’ or nadis acts as the link between the energy emitted by the chakras and the physical body.”

Note that according to Dr Page, the physical body is “purely the vehicle for the energies transmitted from the other bodies, manifesting thought into action.”

It is the physical body that manifests spirituality or its absence or the lack of it.

“Through it, the brain and the autonomous nervous system are activated leading to the stimulation of the endocrine glands to produce hormones.”

“These hormones are then carried around the body, via the blood stream to particular target sites where the impulse originating from the subtle bodies to manifest into action.”

Clearly the physical body is not the source of problems to spirituality that manifest into the physical realm.

According to George Sison: “When you allow your body to relax and allow your mind to let go of all things that have been bothering you, you experience a change of CONSCIOUSNESS. There is a shift from your so-called human nature to your God-nature.”

Spirituality is closely affected by our endocrine system: Lynn Grabhorn wrote in “Beyond the Twelve Steps”:
“The pituitary is about the size of a hazelnut, shaped like a pear with its mouth at the narrow end. When thought comes into the brain, it hits the pituitary which then secretes a hormone that flows through the brain into he pineal gland another member of the endocrine system.”

“The pineal, a tiny pine cone-shaped gland projecting down from the back of the brainstem, is the guy that’s responsible for amplifying the thought frequencies when they’re received so that they can be dispatched throughout the body.”

I wished I knew all these in the 90s when I was in and out of the hospital  too
often.  Then my voice turned funny. It was because of myasthenia gravis but my HMO would not honor the diagnosis. Eventually I was diagnosed to have severe clinical depression.

I think had I been spiritual instead of being religious as early as the 90s I would not have sank into depression.

One doctor casually said my problem was due to hormonal imbalance but the rest of the medical team over ruled her.

Lynn Grabhorn could have  done me wonders. She wrote:
“Why is all this important [the endocrine system]? Well, your pituitary is the door to God. The more you allow unlimited thoughts into your brain the more it opens, the more it opens, the more you know. And here’s the crux of it: whatever you know;
you will become.”
