Medical Intuitives

We were having a conversation about problems related to health and well being. She stated that a friend had told her that most of her problems might be related to the spleen. She said that this friend was spiritually adept and said that he knew of someone that might help her. B said, "I called this person who is a "medical intuitive", who works with energy and healing." "She (energy healer) knew right away what might be my problem and said she would work on it." "And L, you know in a little while I started feeling a lot better." "So I am feeling really good right now." "I called J, and told her about it and she said it was probably just me, that I made myself feel better." "But I choose to believe that it was that spiritual energy that helped." "I really believe that energy can be channeled and can help you overcome adversity."

Well B, I think that I am on the same page as J. How much did you pay this "medical intuitive"? It was sixty dollars. A sixty dollar phone call? "Yes". B, I have traveled the world and met with many so called Guru's, Adepts, Shamans, Priest of every caste and I can tell you without reservation that all are looking for essentially the same thing, acknowledgement of their superior spirituality and a buck for telling you about it. If someone sets themselves up as an authority then you can be assured that it is for the self and its gratification. Though they may not be consciously aware of it, the self that knows always seeks its validation in what is. "But L, aren't you an authority of sorts." A person can only have authority if you give them authority. The authority of the self, seeks the authority of that which will confirm and validate ones own authority, which is belief in the illusion of a self that knows. I have no authority as such. This person is without the need for acknowledgement, agreement or validation. It is because their is no one here who knows or seeks to know. Their is only the truth of the absolute moment which is realized as the outcome of the dissipation of the known. I have not provided anyone with a belief or a philosophy as such, though people who are seeking will invariably create what it is that they are seeking out of what is said, as a continuation of what is known. The mind seeks continuity in what it knows and so it reconciles, modifies or discards what is so that it conforms with ones beliefs. In the absolute moment their is in reality nothing that can be recognized as a repetition of what has been. Their is only the projected illusion of the known, the authority of ones beliefs.

B laughed, and said "My God, my head is spinning, I just don't get what you are saying." "I mean I understand some of what you have said but its confusing and seems to contradict what you have said at other times." "I feel like you are attacking me and my beliefs." It just seems like I am attacking you. Actually I am trying to help you see in the moment without all the baggage. To see something totally new, something that you have not realized about yourself. I am not criticizing you or in anyway denigrating you. I am speaking to the true self, the nameless, that which is without the conditioning of belief or non-belief. B said, "Well I think I must have my beliefs otherwise why go on?" Yes why? indeed.
