Tonight at BJ's class we went right into a pure Huna meditation so that BJ could work on Ranbir Kaur. Ranbir Kaur is in a hospital in Utah, where she was in a car accident, thrown from the vehicle and found trapped beneath a huge boulder. BJ saw her last weekend and set up energy extensions on her to keep the healing process going.
Tonight he used our energy to feed into her, too. He asked us to set up a high “E” (nearing “A”) extension in our hands and then hold it with the palms on the knees beaming up in a big ball of energy. Rather than taking our group energy to her, he used each ball individually. BJ said it would have been too difficult to filter otherwise, because people had different extensions, although it did not really matter exactly what we had.
Simultaneously there was a small group of people meditating around Ranbir Kaur in her hospital room. BJ said they had a powerful meditation going. Hari Simran Kaur of Hawaii stood beside Ranbir Kaur. Her arm was used as one of Ranbir Kaur’s arms to channel pure Huna into her since one of Ranbir Kaur’s arms is broken. BJ said Hari Simran Kaur had so much pure Huna energy channeled through her that if the lights were out she would have glowed!
The purpose of this session was to trigger Ranbir Kaur’s pelvic bones to set in place all at once. Whenever the doctors worked to seal broken sections together, Ranbir Kaur’s pelvic bone would come apart again at any of the six other places it was broken. They were perplexed! Using pure Huna energy solved the problem.
I chanted Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo silently yet generally felt best keeping my mind neutral and empty. BJ chanted a prayer in Hawaiian. He later said English would have worked as well. He used Hawaiian because Hari Simran Kaur is from Hawaii and she could understand it better.
He told us that Ranbir Kaur’s meditation was so strong that he had to “knock” four or so times before she would acknowledge that he was with her and let him in. He said, “In Sikh terms she would be described as very pure and with a seven-foot aura.”
When BJ was with Ranbir Kaur in Utah his most urgent task was to lower her heart beat (it was at 145!) and dissolve a blood clot in her lung over the heart. It was a delicate procedure. To use the “U” extension on her heart would lower the pulse but it could come back up again.
BJ traced the problem to fear and the shock of the accident, which she had repressed. Once these emotions were triggered they were expressed as a rapid pulse and high blood pressure. It was like using an automated switch. BJ gradually was able to lower the pulse rate through her nerves and her brain. If he had done this rapidly, the rapid loss of blood pressure would have created a vacuum and sucked the blood clot towards her heart. She could have died. Last night he moved through her doing what he could, working on what was left of the blood clot and clearing a pain in her left side.
BJ said Ranbir Kaur has been able to walk and even go to the bathroom by herself although her pelvic bones are still not set correctly. He hopes to have her down in this vicinity in one to two weeks to begin that process.
BJ once again mentioned that he was very impressed by the Siri Singh Sahib’s playing of the gong. He compared it to drums used by Kahunas in Hawaii to create a sound current for healing. And he was just listening to a tape recording of it.
I had some beautiful moments in class, simply observing BJ, sensing his aura. He was exhausted and has some kind of cold, too, yet still serves as a heart chakra channel, using pure communication with others higher selves to heal themselves. Selfless.
At one point while talking to us he paused and seemed to be resting. I thought maybe he was locking in to Ranbir Kaur for a little while, contemplating, a little in awe, grateful. But as I beamed on him, I melted into that aura and felt the cosmos his soul was embracing. I felt in tune with him, much as I do with the Siri Singh Sahib when he is in a similar space, not focused on the external world, eyes kind of blank, open but gazing within. You observe them to be resting, but they are everywhere. I had the same experience of BJ’s presence this morning during sadhana while chanting. BJ was in that same energy space on his work with Ranbir Kaur. It was a beautiful experience for me, chanting into vastness, into giving.
This is nothing BJ and I have discussed. There is oneness in knowing where words are superfluous. This oneness is the space where I will solidify what BJ is really teaching us. When I feel it is difficult, I am simply forgetting the oneness.
I am not confident that I can get a “U” well. Tonight BJ asked me to slow down a man’s heart while he was working on him. I wasn’t able to do it on the spot, so someone else came and reinforced my “U” extension and it worked. BJ says there aren’t degrees of power of an extension because it is all universal energy and is there all the time. There are only degrees of how good a channel you are or allow yourself to be.
BJ wants us to develop our confidence and our honesty in diagnosing, healing (communicating). He did an experiment where he suggested that he was placing an “A” on a person’s chest and holding an “I” in an open hand. Two at a time, he had us put our “I” hand on his “A” hand and then scan the person, comparing it to how it had felt scanning with our “I” on the person himself.
My scanning hand lost the feel of distinct extensions being called for as I scanned the person. Later BJ explained that the hand he held on the person’s chest was not really an “A”. It was empty. This caused the energy we channeled to be circulated through him as well as through the patient. The result was that he sweated and felt great discomfort and the patient’s torso went cold and we were inhibited from getting any use out of our “I” extensions.
It made me think at the outset that perhaps I did not really have an “I,” but he told me that my “I” was very good. It felt intense to me. Assuming it was a “very good “I,” I switched it on very rapidly. And BJ gives so few direct compliments that I take them as serious observations. He is not out to flatter us.
The lesson from this experiment: be wary not to use an empty hand. BJ said we do not need to pray for protection as healers or do any gimmicks to clear ourselves if we use this one precaution. He explained that if you always are concerned with protecting yourself then you cannot do as well in the healing process, which is all giving.
He gave us someone from class to work on whose pelvis was out. We knew what extensions to use with an “I” but the question was what process do you use, in what order do you approach it?
BJ compares a patient’s subconcious mind to that of a two-year-old child. Similar to the Siri Singh Sahib’s expression of “monkey mind,” he says the subconscioius is like a spoiled brat running around, trying to steal the cookies out of the cookie jar. You have to get his attention, but not in such a way that all the cookies go crashing to the floor.
I thought it best to give a short “A” then soften it with an “O”—getting their attention and offering comfort. But it is much more involved than that. As a healer you have to get into a very intimate, waxing, sometimes teasing, reassuring, distracting, attacking, comforting flow. And what you need to communicate is a spontaneous, ever-changing, building process. It is very friendly. BJ communicates with his hands and his mind, telling the person he admires his strength for holding onto a pain so gallantly (with lots of variations), then he asks, “How do you do it?” “How do you manage to do such a great job?”
The person may answer, “Awe, figure it out yourself.” You have to coax the reasons compassionately. Sympathy is to be avoided, for is indirect and weakens the person you extend it to.
So BJ started out by occupying the patient’s mind with a task. It was actually a trick to distract the patient from interfering in the healing process. The person thinks it is integral to the healing, and it is—indirectly!
They lay on their back, hands fingertip to fingertip in a tent, barely touching each other, above their chest. The thumbs are #1, index finger is #2, middle finger #3, etc. On command the person is to open or close the opening between any two given fingers. Like: “1 open, 2 open, 3 open, 4 open, 5 open, now reverse—5 closed, 4 closed, 3 closed, 2 closed, 1 closed.” Then it is complicated a bit: “1 open, 3 open, 5 open, 1 closed, 3 closed, 2 open, 5 closed, 4 open. Repeat patterns so the nonsense makes some sense. The idea is that as soon as they begin to follow your directions flawlessly then you know you have their mind distracted.
After BJ had gotten the person’s trust with the finger exercise, at one point he suddenly began to give brief, sharp “A” extension shots into nerve centers. He said it does not matter which ones, although he used points on the outer chest, ribs, hips (adrenyl neuro-lymphatics), and the navel. Then he gave some soothing “O” and/or “E” to the navel and organs to energize and relax the person. It also got him used to being surprised but not hurt, enhancing the trust in the relationship.
As BJ worked on the person he continued calling off simple commands before each extension or pressure point while mentally asking their super consciousness questions. He did not go directly to the area that was in trauma.
We were not sure whether it was best to start on the pelvis area and hip where there was a displacement, or if it was better to begin by working on the spine where the spinalis was in spasm, which was causing the hips to be pulled out of place.
BJ went to the lumber and worked up, away from the traumatized area and back down again, asking with each pressure point, “Is this it?”
The answer was “No” each time. But BJ knew where it was. When some minor displacements relaxed into place, he unexpectedly hit the real problem with energy that went in to relax the trauma.
BJ finished him off by placing soothing “O” over nerve centers he had worked on with the lazer-like “A” earlier.
BJ said that old time acupuncturists use extensions to find where to put the needles. It is not just intuition. They come upon the technique naturally.
BJ asked Bruce or me to do the hip adjustments. Bruce tried using a method he had started teaching me earlier in the evening. But BJ improved upon it. He placed his right hand with “A” under the hip socket or nerve points along the sacrum and on top of the hip, with his fingertips and thumb. He pressed his body against the patient’s body to control the motion and with his arm bent under the knee on the affected side (the patient was on his back), and very slowly began to raise the knee up towards the chest. I think “I” was in that arm’s hand. Whenever he met a slight resistance he would gently prod the nerve centers with his hand under the hip, relaxing past those mental tensions, until he had the knee bent as far as it could reasonably go so that all the muscles were taunt. At this point he extended a shot of “A” into the nerve center on the hip and it went into place. During this process the patient’s knee and hip were maneuvered while pressing against BJ’s chest and belly.
A little later when the man got up he threw it out again. BJ said the problem was that his spinalis muscle had not relaxed enough.
The most efficient way to give the lower spine a pressure point massage
- Have the person sit down on the floor. Position yourself behind them with your elbows pressing into your torso and thumbs charged with “A” set down on either side of the lower spine, without touching the spinal column itself.
- Ask the person to lean into your thumbs, and release a brief shot of “A”. When you feel a release in muscle tension, ask them to straighten their spine. Replace your thumbs a bit higher and repeat.
- Continue up to the shoulder blades, at which point you can start at the lower spine an inch or two farther out to each side and repeat the process.
This method is more effective when the person is sitting than when a person is lying on their stomach because, while sitting, their muscles are all tensed to hold the spine erect and will relax only where you place your thumbs. It is the ideal situation.
To observe a rough blueprint of imbalances in the body
Have the person lie on their back and go through the following motions. Observe which areas take on extra stress to maintain a smooth motion relative to the opposite side of the body where it is easier. Favored areas reveal weaknesses.
Request to the patient to:
1. Raise the right leg up and lower it slowly
2. Raise the left leg up and lower it.
3. Raise both legs
4. Extend arms out to the sides. Without looking, bring the fingertips up to meet over the pelvis.
5. Extend arms to the sides. Move in the same manner until the index fingertips meet over the navel.
6. Repeat, moving the arms until the index fingertips meet over the head.
7. Stretch the arms in front of you, right wrist over the left, fingers interlocked.
a. Roll the hands down and up toward the chest keeping the fingers interlocked.
b. Raise the lock over the head and roll the lock down to behind the neck and up again.
8. With the index fingertips together at the pelvis, raise them to over the head.
9. Arms at sides, without looking, raise the arms until the index fingertips meet over the head.
We did not do this with last evening’s patient because his hips were out so badly it would have worsened the problem. You must always use discretion.
Note: When you use your mind to set an extension (like A) exactly where it goes, the action is contained and controlled and so is the reaction.
