Medical Intuition and Energy Medicine From Ancient Spiritual Traditions to Modern Scientific Breakthroughs Medical Intuition and Energy Medicine are emergent disciplines derived from ancient spiritual traditions. Today, these subjects are being rediscovered and researched using western scientific methodology. Intuition is a sixth sense, an innate ability we all posses but have been discouraged from using. We often ignore, dismiss or rationalize intuition and rely on the rational mind. There are more ways of knowing beyond our five physical senses and our technology. The mysteries of existence, consciousness, and the Universe are immense. The more we know, the more there is to know. Intuition is not a gift, but a skill. Just like everybody can learn how to play the piano or play tennis up to a certain level, everybody can learn to use intuition. Training, study, practice, innate ability and talent create a good medical intuitive, just like they create a concert pianist or a tennis champion. Intuition includes clairvoyance (seeing, without the physical eyes), clairaudience (hearing, without the physical ears), clairsentience (kinesthesia, feeling with the body), and claircognizance (direct knowing, not based on the logical mind.) All forms provide access to the non-physical worlds and non-physical guidance. When we discover the real causes of the illness using intuition, we can cultivate health and well-being. We habitually expend more time and energy fulfilling the ego’s (the "image" created about us) agenda while the incarnational purpose of the soul is ignored. This leads to imbalances in the energetic system which may eventually manifest as physical or mental illness, emotional disharmony, difficult relationships or radical disconnection from the self, others, the Earth and the Universe. In addition to assessing the Human Energy System (chakras, aura), organs and systems, the medical intuitive observes the mental, emotional, and spiritual origins of a medical condition. Before anything manifests in physical reality, it first appears as an energetic template. Eliminating the energetic root of illness (through energy work, life-style changes, and spiritual transformation) promotes healing and may prevent further reoccurrences or complications. If a physical condition has already manifested, working at an energetic level (integrated with conventional medical care) promotes healing at many levels of being and is potentially curative and transformative. Energy Medicine incorporates a variety of techniques from around the world, but the principles are the same. First the chakras, aura, organs and systems are cleansed through extraction of negative energies. Next, an "energy make-over" achieved by restructuring and recharging creates a new configuration for optimal flow of Life Force (called "chi","ki," "chai" or "prana" in various traditions). Medical intuitive and energetic medicine techniques are non-local. They can be used with equal accuracy and effectiveness in person or long-distance - geographical location is unimportant. I need only the first name of a person to instantly access their energy system, even if they are located on the other side of the world. Exercise care when selecting a medical intuitive or energy healer. People often take more time choosing a hairdresser than choosing a doctor, surgeon, energy healer or massage therapist - all of whom can influence us profoundly on an energetic level. There are many popular misconceptions about working with intuition and energies. Training, study, practice, ethics and purity of intention are attributes to look for in a medical intuitive or energy healer. In the past, the training of clairvoyants and healers was initiatory, achieved through oral transmission from a master to a student, who was personally selected, tested for aptitude and ethical conduct, and trained intensively for several years. Currently, the primary criterion for such training is the ability to write a check, so the level of students' aptitude, motivation, and intention greatly varies. Many people think that after a weekend course they are now shamans, mediums, healers, channels, or intuitives. There is a misconception that energies are self-adjusting, that they do not require any technique and that you cannot do any harm by working with them. Some people know just enough to be dangerous. As the business of spirituality grows, the quality of the teachers and training methods need to be carefully examined before investing time and money. Ultimately, a good teacher is only a guide, directing us to the answers inside ourselves. Nobody should give their power away to teachers or gurus. Developing and applying energy management skills is vitally important for health maintenance, harmonious relationships, spiritual development, personal transformation and ultimately world peace and a new paradigm. Staying awake, self-observant, in the present moment, and accepting radical responsibility for all that we create in our lives is the sign of an evolving human, capable of serving humanity. We are energy-consciousness! Modern physics confirms what the spiritual traditions of the world told us for millennia. We are all One, part of the Unified Field of Consciousness which quantum physics now calls God. As we heal individually, we collectively raise the vibration of the Unified Field for the benefit of all humanity. This article by Dr. Liliana Cerepnalkoski will appear in the Healer's Guide 2008

Transforming Homo Sapiens into Homo Luminosus, our key to Planetary Evolution There is a vast difference between acquiring facts from books or lectures and deriving your own conclusions from direct personal experience. We know very few things in life from direct experience; the formal education process consists primarily of memorizing facts. We are indoctrinated with a worldview consisting of generally accepted concepts from the disciplines of social sciences, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and medicine. If we had a religious upbringing, we learned a cosmology particular to our faith, which dictated our relationship to deity, creation, and unseen realms. Yet even “consensus reality” is not quite as objective as we might wish to believe. We know that history differs according to who wrote the accounts, that regimes in power slant historical facts to their advantage, and that today’s media “spin-doctors” distort news to present the particular viewpoints and advance the specific agendas of advertising sponsors and government agencies. The world of “facts” continues to shift and expand with every new discovery. Ideas once held as immutable, officially promulgated truths change dramatically. In the sciences, we are now told that things are completely different than what we formerly thought they were only 20 years ago. The mysteries of the Universe are vast - the more we learn, the more we realize how very little we know - hopefully, at once a humbling experience and an invitation to expand the frontiers of human knowledge in a spirit of “reverent curiosity” (Carolyn Casey). During 30 years of personal exploration and study of spirituality and metaphysical subjects, reading many books and attending seminars with teachers from various traditions, I took a scientific approach of detached, neutral inquiry. I resolved to neither automatically accept nor reject what I was being told; through personal experience, I would draw my own conclusions. I was told to leave several metaphysical groups of an initiatic character, perhaps because I asked too many questions and refused to give away my power to teachers who wanted authority over the lives of their students. The business of spirituality is growing, and we must be careful not only how we spend our money and time, but most importantly, not to surrender our sovereignty to anyone. We live in an era of unprecedented access to information through the Internet and mass media. Esoteric teachings once reserved for secret societies are publicly available on web sites, in mass-market paperbacks and weekend workshops. In the past, clairvoyants and healers were selected by their masters and trained through oral transmission, energetic induction and initiatory trials. Today, the only criterion for such training is writing a check. Some people mistakenly believe that after a weekend course, they are now shamans, mediums, healers, channels, or intuitives. Popular misconceptions abound: energies are self-adjusting, they do not require any technique, and you cannot do any harm by working with them. Some people know just enough to be dangerous! Unfortunately, many New Age teachers present derivative work, regurgitating information developed by others, rather than presenting new information based on direct personal experience. With so much information and such limited time, we cannot possibly study everything. Ask yourself these questions and "read" the author/teacher’s energetic system to obtain this information, before committing yourself to further study: What is the level of spiritual development of the author or teacher? What is their motivation? What core values are promoted in their work? Do they have direct knowledge? Is the information truly new, useful and derived from higher sources of inspiration, or is just an intellectual exercise generated purely for commercial gain? I've heard and read about the energetic system of the human body - ancient traditions from around the world described this knowledge - but I know that the energetic system exists, because I have seen it. According to the science of physics, we are composed of energy to the level of subatomic particles. This information-dense energy is more appropriately termed “energy-consciousness” or “energy-intelligence.” All the structures of our energetic system and physiology carry information that can either impair our health, happiness, relationships, conscious behavior, and pursuit of the will of the soul and the purpose of incarnation, or catalyze developmental cycles of healing and personal transformation. Since I became clairvoyant, nobody can tell me that chakras do not exist, because I can "see" them for myself. They’ve been described a certain way in books, according to the magical number 7: 7 chakras, corresponding to 7 tones in the musical scale, 7 colors in the white light spectrum, and 7 vowels. While these descriptions are poetic, they are not always accurate. People who insist that chakras appear a certain way probably never saw one! I have observed that the chakras contain a tremendous amount of information, such as: 7th and 6th: level of spiritual development, intelligence and intuition, beliefs, attitudes, 5th: communication and self-expression, personal truth, alignment of personal will with God's will, 4th: longing of the soul, giving and receiving love, compassion and appreciation, level of openness of heart, 3rd: concept of self, level of courage, work load, money, level of vitality, level of stress and causes of stress 2nd: level of creativity, quality of emotions, relationship with self, significant other, family, friends, coworkers, level of belonging 1st: grounding, overall vitality Additional information can also be discerned clairvoyantly, such as: the sense of purpose of incarnation, how much time/energy is spent in the pursuit of ego agenda versus the agenda of the soul, information from past lives, karmic issues, thought forms, traumas, and childhood/family of origin dynamics. The organs and systems also contain extensive information. Various tissues and organs have a predilection for storing particular kinds of emotions, traumas or stresses. For example, in the lungs we always find sadness, grief and regret; in the gall bladder we find anger and rage, etc. Based on these changes in energy and the aspect of the organs one can discern physical conditions and their causative mental, emotional, relational and spiritual issues. The real reasons for illnesses become apparent: they are related to emotions, traumas and incidents in the current incarnation, or even from past lives. Scientists' opinion is that many human illnesses are psychosomatic in origin (Greek; psyche = soul; soma = body). In the western sciences of psychology and psychiatry, the soul is never addressed - only the mind and mental health. This is changing with the emergence of new disciplines, such as spiritual psychology and energetic medicine. At the level of the DNA, we carry not only the genetic characteristic of our ancestors, such as how tall we will grow, eye color and skin tone. We also carry our ancestor’s predispositions to illness, beliefs and attitudes, and patterns of reaction and adaptation to certain stimuli and life situations, all derived from their own experiences, programming, beliefs and attitudes. All these are transmitted through the DNA in a “vibratory” way, creating changes in the DNA (mutations) that may manifest for generations. It is possible that we carry information from 7 preceding generations and that this influences our lives significantly. Recent DNA studies have demonstrated that DNA interacts with the environment, can transmit and receive information even if it is outside of the person's body, and can be changed through the power of a beam of light, sound, or the spoken word. DNA contains great mysteries yet to be discovered, researched and understood. The 7 layers of the aura, the energy field that surrounds our body, contain more information. The aura is an energetic “ecosystem,” populated by spirits of dead ancestors, entities (sometimes negative opportunistic evil ones; sometimes positive divine, angelic; sometimes extraterrestrial in origin) past life information, contracts and agreements with other souls, "pictures" activated through triggers and associations created by memories of similar events in current life or from past lives, etc. Moreover, our minds are untrained. In our system of schooling we are given extensive memorizations, but nobody teaches us how to monitor the mind. An undisciplined mind constantly creates internal “movies,” fabricating scenarios with frightening outcomes that will likely never happen. Unfortunately, these negative mental constructs generate cascades of biochemical reactions that produce real physical reactions, because our bodies understand and internalize everything literally. We are programmed by family, schooling and society to reject our intuition (our innate ability to know) and rely instead on the rational mind, which is bombarded by information from modern daily life. We go though life on automatic pilot, reactively, living the in the past or in the future but not in the now, unaware of the present moment - Asleep. We are under the impression that others have the answers for us; we look for solutions outside but never inside. We regard the body as a machine and mistakenly identify ourselves as the body - although it is a marvelous, intelligent organism with a tremendous innate self-healing ability - rather than the soul that came here to experience embodiment on Earth. We lack energy management skills and energy hygiene skills. We do not know how to manage our energies and protect ourselves from others' energies. We do not know how to live: how to be happy, how to master our inner states of being, how to relate with others, how to be spouses and how to be parents. We have higher education to advance our careers, yet no formal training in essential life mastery skills. We devote most of our time and energy to advancing the ego’s agenda, diverting our energy to the image that we created about ourselves, who we think that we are, and who we want other people to think that we are. How then can we free ourselves to pursue the true Will of the Soul, our purpose for incarnation? Human transformation can be achieved only at the energetic-consciousness level, through diligent work, formation of new habits, and developing new energy awareness and management skills. Our goals are: - To cleanse ourselves as much as possible, to remove old energetic information from all levels of the chakras, organs and system; and to evict entities from all the levels of the aura - to properly recharge all the structures with fresh universal energy ( chi, ki, prana, chai, or life force, as it is referred to in different traditions) - to consciously monitor and maintain our energetic system, which is not static but dynamic and continuously affected by background electromagnetic pollution (cell phones, computers, etc.) and other peoples' energies (directly or from a distance) - to constantly stay awake, alert and live in the moment. In one lifetime we may be unable to completely cleanse and remove everything. Fortunately, we do not need 100% cleansing to manifest significant change in our lives and level of consciousness. We need to minimally achieve “seniority”, to become a policy-maker who can vote and veto. When we eliminate as much old energy as possible and own at least 51% of our energetic space, we become "majority share holders” who can make decisions and live life consciously. Proper cleansing, restructuring, and charging of the chakras, organs, systems and aura are the steps through which we can achieve an Energy Makeover. Once this is accomplished, the healing process unfolds organically. The individual will increasingly feel physically strong, mentally clear, and emotionally even, at ease relating to people and connected with the Self, the Earth, God, and the Universe. Clairvoyantly, when the chakras and the aura are energized and functioning optimally, they look luminous, like the golden light of a candle flame. (Conversely, darkened or black chakras indicate low energy, contamination or negative information, or absence of energy.) A person with an optimized (cleansed and charged) energy system looks luminous, like a human made of light, thus "homo luminosus" (Latin; luminosus = luminous). The transformation of the Homo Sapiens into Homo Luminosus is key to the transformation of the Planet. Homo Luminosus factors energy-consciousness into the equation. He is aware, awake and able to manage his own energies. He respects and connects with all life forms as a conservator of Planet Earth, and is in awe and in love with all Creation. He can access both inner knowing and higher forms of inspiration from other realms, and communicate fluently with other dimensions and beings. He is constantly learning, evolving and co-creating, joining the advanced brotherhood of the Cosmos, for the highest good of all. Dr. Liliana Cerepnalkoski - March 2008
