A Little About Faith Healing

As along our long life journey we sail We all do encounter belied expectations Feeling of deep hurt results from betrayal Our shrivelled heart writhing in contractions The hurt needs healing so we go to a healer Who examines blotches in our aura field Looking grave is this wheeler dealer As his magic wand he does wield Half who visit healed, the others not For he simply invokes the placebo effect Opening up our mind beyond its fearful slots The faith healer does nothing yet no one suspects With this comic interlude over with let us examine The root cause of our pain needing healing We negate not potency of toxic poison Simply look at origin of so feeling The aspect of us hurt is our identity Plunged into dark gloom owing to its loss Recognising not that in world of ephemerality Attachment to fleeting images of pain is the cause In monk mode detached thus free from pain and sorrow Lower mind vaporised, we abide in blissful joy No expectations or desires for the morrow Mind illumined we recognise ego ploys Acceptance of others just as they are Knowing that maya oft causes misalignment Acts of others be as they may leaves then no scar We empathise with one and all resting in blissful contentment We then are our own best faith healer having faith in love divine Offering no niche within for rancour to anchor onto our being Knowing that in timeless time with love all souls will align We nonchalantly breeze through life ever celebrating 29-November-2020

Such a gracious tribute to a beloved poet, Regina. Kudos on POTD. Robert is a poetic gemstone. He has emerald and beryl ink eyes, whose thoughts quill atone. A beautiful poem, worthy of PSoup praise. Love and more love always.

Hello, SU..... A wonderfully structured, awe inspiring poem.... So right, we should rely on ourselves for healing. Many wise points throughout your poem. I greatly respect your always inspirational craft..

Thanks Sigrid! If we look deep at what mediums do for example, they essentially connect subconscious mind with superconscious, bypassing the conscious, in a hypnotic trance. Past life regression and so on. Mind boggling but at the end of it, each person heals himself or herself through inner alignment. ~ having said that, there are highly evolved healers as well as fly by night operators
