* A Pioneering Psychotherapist Points Her Profession Back to Its Roots *
Dr. Shakuntala Modi is a psychiatrist and author of two books, Remarkable Healings and Memories of God and Creation
I highly recommend Remarkable Healings to anyone who is interested in learning how to keep their auric field clear, reclaim lost energy due to soul fragmentation (or "soul loss"), and improve their physical and emotional health. Remarkable Healings is simply the most ground-breaking and helpful book I have EVER read in the metaphysical genre, and you'll find it amazing, too.
Basically, through working with hypnosis on her patients, she stumbled across information she hadn't expected to find. People described various entity attachments ranging from the human (discarnate entities, often loved ones!) to the demonic (negative beings who are opposite from angels in vibration and seek to drag a person down spiritually.)
The accumulation of these energies in a person's body and energy field proved to be the sole source of their ailments, both on the physical and the emotional level.
The implications of this work are astonishing... The auric egg or energy envelope surrounding the body can be penetrated by these various entities, if a person's psychic "immunity" isn't strong enough. And this is the number one cause of ailments of every kind - including many conditions modern medicine has never been able to cure, like depression and chronic fatigue.
These are usually the by-product of parasitic entity attachments, and, once they are removed, the person's well-being is restored.
Dr. Modi gradually discovered some simple forms of invocation which can clear out these entities and attachments and relieve many physical and emotional ailments in the process. She works with a person's angelic helpers and spiritual guides and, of course, the power of God/Goddess/Great Spirit/The Great Kahuna. :)
This is amazing work. By adapting her techniques in my own healing work (and also through having other complimentary techniques revealed to me by my own higher guidance,) I have been able to help people to release core stuff that they didn't even know they were carrying around.
Other healers who practice similar techniques have reported astonishing levels of success, too. This stuff works!
Many times, people are so saturated with attachments that what they think of as their "core personality" isn't even their own! It's more of an overlay of all of these entities...
I've also used an adapted form of her techniques on myself and loved ones, to great effect. For instance, I used to be the type of person who would catch a cold or the flu at the drop of a hat. I haven't been sick in three years now, with anything. So learning how to maintain a clear auric field by starting with some of what Dr. Modi teaches set me on the path to this level of well-being.
Through diligent self-clearing work (which you can learn how to do with this book,) you'll experience many amazing changes on a physical and emotional level. The more comfortable you are with invoking and working with the angels for healing, the more readily you can incorporate what she teaches in the book.
Remember The Exorcist? Those chilling scenes caused various reactions among audiences: While some enjoyed the intense effects and dismissed it as entertainment, many experienced an uncomfortable encounter with energies we would like to relegate to Hollywood's active imagination, but can't.
Indeed, there is ample evidence that evil manifests on earth, acting through humans, animals and nature itself. From swine trapped in the body of a demented man (cast out by Jesus) to heartless, senseless murder and twisted tortures all over the globe, the evil shows its face. And it's not just the gross deviations that constitute evil.
A growing number of people say they are experiencing demonic possession in subtle ways that manifest as various physical, mental and emotional symptoms and conditions. For them, phrases such as, "The devil made me do it," "He's wrestling with his demons," or, "What possessed you to do that?" are more than mere adages. These people are sure they are being influenced by uncorporeal entities and, after trying conventional means, many are turning to a technique known as "spirit releasement."
Dr. Shakuntala Modi, a board certified psychiatrist practicing in Wheeling, W.V., notes that while seemingly 'new-age' spirit releasement has a significant history.
"The earliest evidence of the need to deal with spirits is the work of primitive medicine men, or shamans," she says. "Later, the medicine man emerged, using prayers, herbs, drinks and music to induce the spiritual awareness necessary to ward off evil spirits. The Greeks and Romans believed mania to be possession by evil spirits who represented 'the cult of the dead'."
According to Modi, the history of psychiatry traces a backward movement. "Over the years, psychiatrists have wandered down countless blind alleys, looking for alternative, 'more scientific' answers to mental illness than those purported by the ancients," she states.
"Today, the mental health community is coming full circle, back to the understandings of their early counterparts."
Dr. Modi's own history began in central India; as a child, she lost her father and was raised by an uncle, along with her siblings and cousins. She wanted to become a doctor for as long as she can remember. When family finances became such that only she or her brother could become a doctor, her brother sacrificed his own ambition so that she could achieve hers, an astounding act considering the country's gender prejudice.
Modi became an obstetrician/gynecologist, and married a general surgeon. Their son, Raju, was born in India. When they moved to America, Modi realized that, without the extended family system they had enjoyed in India, either she or her husband would have to make a career change. "I had been interested in psychiatry and thought it would be a way I could be a working mother," she says. After graduate school, she practiced traditional psychiatry; using hypnotherapy as an adjunct, she earned an excellent reputation among her peers and enjoyed hospital admittance privileges.
Eleven years ago her practice began a radical evolution. She became aware of the concept of past-life regression when a patient suffering with claustrophobia instantly regressed to another life where she was being buried alive. After the session, the patient was totally relieved of her long-standing and disabling condition. These results are what keep Dr. Modi pursuing what she often calls "God's Work," and which form the case studies for her popular book, Remarkable Healings.
Replete with case histories, it details the stories of patient after patient describing similar phenomenon. "The results speak for themselves," she states. "People are getting well, their symptoms are clearing and they are able to resume normal lives." According to Modi, relief is often immediate and dramatic, with patients reporting that they feel more alive and energetic than ever before, or light and empty, as if a great weight had been lifted from them. Others say they can breathe more easily, and that relationships have improved.
Modi emphasizes that hypnotism is not the dramatic, induced state we stereotypically think of. It is, rather, a "parallel awareness" achieved when we focus our concentration deeply and slip into fantasy, or become so absorbed in conversation that we tune out those around us.
"The subconscious contains the soul memories of every lifetime," says Modi, adding that, "Everything we have ever touched, sensed, smelled, felt, heard, experienced and done is recorded-not only from our current lifetime, but from all past lives, the time between incarnations and even from the time of our soul's creation and the creation of the Universe."
While the subconscious can bring up these memories, Modi feels it is vital to include the conscious mind as well. She deliberately avoids using classic relaxation techniques associated with hypnotism (such as counting backwards or suggestions that the patient is becoming sleepy). "Learning takes place consciously," she states emphatically. "We need to be consciously aware of what's going on, not push the memories back into the subconscious!"
According to hypnotized patients, some people have firm boundaries around their energy field, or aura, as if they are heavily armored. This boundary prevents outside spirits from entering them. Other people have soft, porous, fuzzy boundaries, making it easier for the spirits to penetrate their shields and bodies.
Different physical and emotional conditions, behaviors and situations can open one to psychic possession. "We are most vulnerable when ill, injured, unconscious, sedated or anesthetized," says Modi. Playing with conjuring games such as Dungeons and Dragons, using a Ouija board, engaging in automatic writing or channeling can also invite unwanted "guests."
It's scary stuff-as if we don't have plenty to deal with during birth and present-life trauma, Modi says our souls can fragment, leaving a "core" self bereft of various parts that took off during past or present life trauma or to help or stay with a deceased loved one.
We can also be possessed by earth-bound spirits, or by demon entities who can plant false past-life memories within us. Even worse, they claim to implant mechanical devices that interfere with heavenly guidance and influence us negatively, as Modi's patient Josephine, who had severe bulimia, experienced. According to her, dark beings would project a food commercial through devices implanted over her mind that would cause her to think about those foods and then consume them until she would throw up.
Other patients described devices that pushed, pulled or applied pressure to various organs and tissues in their bodies. They claimed these devices were either active or passive 'physical displacement' devices, each tailored specifically to achieve a particular aim, such as throwing off a joint by a fraction, putting pressure on a nerve or squeezing two bones tightly so they would grate and scrape together. Other devices discovered were 'focusing and amplifying devices, such as a focusing dish or wave machine and 'black energy absorbers' which, rather than causing active pain, induced a state of chronic fatigue.
Though demons are deliberate and diabolical, Modi advocates practicing releasement with compassion - "I actually treat the entity as a secondary patient," she says. According to her, even the darkest spirit can be transformed and released into the Light.
She notes a distinction between exorcism and releasement, stating that, "exorcism is a religious ritual marked by the forceful expulsion of a demon entity. It is confrontational, wrenching, and physically and emotionally exhausting to the exorcist and the subject. It directs judgment upon the entity itself, damning it and casting it out. It can be grabbed by Satan and brutally punished, it can go to another host, or return to the person from whom it was cast out." Modi cautions that, before considering spirit releasement, potential patients should rule out biochemical causes and organic brain disorders, such as those which have been clearly implicated in schizophrenia.
A typical session involving past life regression generally includes the following steps: grounding and identification, during which the patient is asked to look at his or her feet and describe what they are wearing, which leads to a recognition of who they were in that life; processing the traumatic event, during which Dr. Modi guides the patient through the event, encouraging them to recall, relive and release the trauma completely; process of death, transition to heaven and experiences in the light.
These experiences are commonly reported to consist of: Being greeted by light beings, "ventilation" (where they may be invited to vent pent-up emotions), soul cleansing, a life review, an opportunity to recognize other people and to make connections between the past and current life, and the opportunity to forgive others as well as themselves. "Forgiving yourself for hurting others is the most difficult step in forgiveness," states Modi. "When I ask patients to look back and see when they were hurting someone, they almost always say they see demon entities telling them and pushing them to do the wrong things."
After these experiences are completed, Modi moves on to locating, retrieving and integrating fragmented soul parts, integrating the past life personality. Modi says that her patients often describe heaven as a sphere with two sections. "The outer section is like the porch of a house, where things are in an earthly form. After cleansing, reviewing and resting, the soul goes down a pathway into the gate of an inner section, where everything is in spiritual form. Here, patients state that they learn, have discussions with others and plan for the next life. This planning includes personal and group goals.
Once cleared of past life trauma or entity/demon possession, patients are counseled to stay in the light through a protection prayer given twice daily. Modi suggests her patients request their angels to "remove all the earthbound, demon and other entities, dark shields, dark energies, dark devices and dark connections from my body, aura, soul and silver cord, and also from my home, workplace, car and places of recreation, then ask them to fill and shield you in a bubble of light and reflective 'spiritual mirrors'. You, and only you, have a right to live in your bodymind..."
