Purpose of this blog

I am a student of Pranic Healing. I have been practicing pranic healing for approximately a year and so far I have taken the Basic Pranic Healing, Advanced Pranic Healing, Pranic Psychotherapy, Inner Teachings of Buddhism Revealed, Angels (with Master Nona Castro), Spiritual Business Management, and Pranic Feng Shui courses. I will be doing Pranic Crystal Healing this fall, and hopefully soon, Preparatory Arhatic Yoga. There won't be a preparatory Arhatic class in Canada for at least another year, so I have taken that as a clue that I really need to practice more at the level I'm at now first.

In "Miracles Through Pranic Healing", the basic level text book by Grand Master Choa Kok Sui, there is a short section near the back on the 5 virtues. It's only 4 pages of the 356, but so important. Practising the virtues has many benefits. It is character building. It is protective and keeps a person from generating negative karma (or sowing weed seeds in their spiritual garden, we reap what we sow), it also increases the amount of positive karma we are generating. The virtues are universal, they can be found in every major religion.

The Five Virtues are: Loving-kindness and non-injury, Generosity and non-stealing, Honesty and non-lying, industriousness and non-laziness, and Moderation and non-excessiveness. Loving-kindness and non-injury is the first and most important of the virtues, and the one to which all others are subjected. For example, if generosity towards someone would be enabling them to continue in a self-destructive pattern, loving-kindness and non-injury comes first and in that case we do not give them money. If blatant, hard honesty would hurt or injure another person, we let love have the final say in what we chose to say. This makes perfect sense to me, I come from a Christian background and any Sunday school kid should know that Jesus taught that the two most important commandments are to Love God and Love your neighbour, "on these depend all the law and the prophets."

I'm going to write about my journey as I work on incorporating and growing in the Five Virtues. You are welcome to work on it with me, or just read along and observe as you wish. In the book, Master Choa recommends working on each virtue for 2 months at a time, taking time each evening to be aware of the good things I've done that day in relation to the virtue I am working on, and being aware of my mistakes. When being aware of mistakes, it is important not to dwell on them for long, but to instead imagine what I will do next time I am in that situation and focus on developing a firm resolution to act in the new way. The goal is to make the virtues my default way of being, to make it habit. The book says that it should be actively and intensively practised for at least 2 years.

For my first time through the virtues, I'm just going to do one month on each. With that, I hereby declare May to be my personal (and yours if you choose to join in) loving-kindness and non-injury month. I know May is still a couple days away, I'm just going to go ahead and start now.

Love and Blessings,
Krista
