FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Where did you get your Doctor of Divinity?
I attained the Doctor of Divinity, through the Esoteric Theological Seminary. I wrote a Doctoral Thesis titled "The Nature and Practice of Spiritual Advancement". The Doctor of Divinity Degree, and my crystal healing work are part of my own spiritual advancement as a devotee of Pararmahansa Yogananda and the path of Kriya yoga. Hopefully, the crystal healing work makes a difference in the lives of those who come to this website, as well.What are Chakras?
Chakra is a Sanskrit word. It means one of the spiritual energy points of energy (or wheels) in the astral body. The classic number of chakras which are associated with the astral spine, is seven. But there are more chakras than that. For simplicity we will use the number seven, which are the main spiritual chakras. I explain them further in the next question.Why Do I Need My Chakras Balanced and My Aura Healed?
Your chakras are energy vortices (wheels). The light body communicates energy and information through them to your physical body. Needless to say, they are crucial to maintaining your connection to Spirit, on the various levels. There are many levels necessary to keep everything about you, the visible you and the not so visible you and all the higher levels of you, functioning properly and in harmony.The ordinary lives we lead will tend to create blockages, imbalances, etc. in the chakras and the aura. This is due to stress and strains of living, in our minds and emotions, which accumulate in the chakras and the aura. The chakras can go out of alignment, need an adjustment, require healing, just like other functioning systems in the universe.
It is good to maintain mental equanimity as much as possible. Strong emotions, such as anger, can send strong "voltages" through the chakra system (and the etheric system as a whole). In fact, chronic anger can break the chakras down, causing them to function at a reduced level. We do not want that to happen. This makes the communication of information and energy from the higher planes much slower and more difficult. And as far as I am concerned, we need all the help we can get from the higher vibrational realms. So count to ten, take a walk, take a nap, take a shower, rub an ice cube on your temples and forehead - whatever it takes, but do not let the chronic anger or other overwhelming emotions overcome you.
If you keep your chakras functioning properly, keep them in balance, and practice effective meditation techniques (especially pranayama), your chakras will not only remain in good contact with the higher realms, but will begin to open to more and more energy from the higher astral planes. And they will begin to receive more energy from even higher planes still. But more importantly, your attunement with higher Wisdom will come through more clearly. Therefore, there is every reason to continue to keep your chakras functioning at the highest level possible, and always keep them balanced and healthy.
What is my Aura?
Your aura is your body of light, basically. It has been "specially" photographed before through the years, on a primiive level thus far. It has been called the angelic body, but what is usually seen is a lower vibration than that. The aura is a common word, so I use it. There are many levels in the light body and I would not be inclined to say I know all of them. Better to practice "beginner's mind" as the Buddhists recommend and say, "I am still learning about it all." God knows how many levels there are. But, the whole realm of light is a multi dimensional realm and we have a body in that realm. Our physical body and our body of light do communicate with each other. The more clear the communication is between the two bodies, the better, for many reasons. As I said on the homepage, the higher energies come down into the physical through the chakras and thus it is a very good idea to have all systems in good condition, including the aura. We do not need any energy blockages there.Can My Chakras Be Balanced and Healed From a Distance?
Most of my chakra balancing and crystal healing work is distance healing, and it is just as effective as if I was working on your chakras in my healing room. Because, you are here. The separateness is a delusion. Even quantum physics began to see through this delusion decades ago. In science experiments, if you separate two electrons, no matter how far apart, and then change the spin of one, the other one adjusts its spin accordingly. Surely your astral body must have much more awareness than two electrons?Crystal healing was performed on me by a great light worker and I am eternally grateful to her. She did it entirely by distance healing. My chakras were not in good condition at that time. The very first time she worked on my chakras, I felt a most noticeable "event" which I do not wish to share. I will just say it was most unmistakable, and I immediately knew it was because of her crystal healing work. And because of her continued work, I was able to walk my spiritual path once again. I had almost given up - not meditating, not studying any spiritual books, etc. But her work removed the jungle of karma which had grown over my inner spiritual path, and now I am much more surefooted than ever before. So, thank you, Amanda. I am eternally grateful.
Do You Use Hypnosis in Your Crystal Healing Work?
No, not at all.Do You Channel Spirits In Your Crystal Healing Work?
No, my work does not involve going into a trance and having an astral being enter and work through me. I am able to accomplish my crystal healing work without "channeling help" from friendly astral entities and without the risk of unfriendly entities trying to get involved.Are the Crystals and Chakras Your Religion?
Most of us are following an inner guidance path at some level or other (following our bliss, Jacob's ladder, Kingdom of Heaven is within, kundalini ascending, 7 seals and 7 churches, etc.). Without getting into some deep metaphysical discussion, I am talking about enhancing inner depth and outer flow in your life. We can focus on that, and let the concentration and meditation on the inner chakra highway be our Divine Polestar. The "external" religion part of spirituality is of course yours to follow, however you see fit.The chakra path is a simple and effective path. Not always an easy path, but a direct path that cuts through the labyrinth of the world with its never ending distractions. And it is a path that cuts through the even more subtle distractions of the higher planes, until Oneness with Spirit (our true state even now) is rediscovered. Then, we suffer no more dreams or delusions of separateness, with all the whirling and twirling about, seeking to find connectedness again.
This is why I am a crystal healer, following the inner chakra path. I know this is a path with a heart. I know this is a direct path through the labyrinth of the material world. I know this is a very good way to go. So I continue to tread this path and help others along the way. I remove a branch, some leaves, etc. from the path so they might see their inner chakra path more clearly, and follow it at their speed, in their time.
