John of God – Final Thoughts

John of God, Spiritual healing, diabetes, ho'oponopono — Love where the rabbit-hole takes me

I flew back to western civilization a little over a week ago. When friends asked me how it went, the first comment consistently out of my mouth was, “I spent a week without TV; without reading; without driving anywhere to do anything, and I was never once bored.

I can’t say for certain why – what it was about simple lifestyle and reflective focus that took me through a rabbit-hole into timeless Being. I can say the experience left me wanting more of the same.

Immanuel and the Casa staff emphasized ‘the process’. Continue reading “John of God – Final Thoughts”

John of God – Post Psychic Surgery

When I first heard of the protocol to spend 24 hours in restful seclusion after the psychic surgery, I didn’t believe it possible. I thought, “OK, I’ll stay in my room.. but what I do in there will be my own business.” So I thought.

It wasn’t that I felt tired after the psychic surgery; it was more that resting in a prone position just seemed like a really good idea when I returned to the Pousada. I lay on the bed and closed my eyes… and immediately was transported into a trance-like state. Continue reading “John of God – Post Psychic Surgery”

John of God – Psychic Surgery Experience

I came, dressed all in white, and joined the hundreds of people for the afternoon session. We were led in prayer; each of us speaking our language of choice, creating a hum of voices. Then a lovely woman sang “What a Beautiful World” in English to the group. I was excited and eager, but I was also calm and content to follow whatever pattern was set by the Casa staff for me. Continue reading “John of God – Psychic Surgery Experience”

John of God – Morning of Psychic Surgery Day

My time for psychic surgery was in the afternoon session so I had choices for the morning. I could join the first Current Room again; I could schedule more Crystal Baths; or I could approach John of God with another set of questions.

Because my blood sugar dropped to the low 40’s during the night, I eliminated the Current Room because I didn’t want to potentially further stress my body before psychic surgery. As I reflected between the Crystal Bed and visiting John of God again, I realized I did have a couple of strong and specific desires with which I would welcome help: Continue reading “John of God – Morning of Psychic Surgery Day”

John of God – Afternoon of the First Day in the Casa

I scheduled the three Crystal Baths around the afternoon session so that I could sit in the Current Room during my friends’ surgeries. I did two back to back before, and I came into the Current Room feeling refreshed, relaxed, and eager to experience. I’d read many articles on the internet and watched video clips on Google that talked about the Current Room and how powerful it can be in its own right; that not only did the group focus create an energetic support system for the psychic surgeries, but that the Entities also worked with people during meditation there… Like I said, I was eager!

As soon as I closed my eyes, I felt waves of energy passing through my body. In my mind’s eye, I saw patterns of light: spirals, orbs that radiated like a ripple, beams passing through my awareness, morphing colors. Truly, a visual cornucopia… which for me is somewhat unusual as my more typical mode in these types of experiences is auditory and kinesthetic.

John of God – First Morning in the Casa Process

So, I made my Prayer Lists… I made several; discovering how good it felt to free-associate both my desires and the acknowledgement of patterns in my choices that impacted the fruition of them. I placed all of my Prayers for help in the fulfillment of my desires and the release of contradicting patterns into the Prayer Basket. Immanuel assured me that the Entities are integrating everything in the Prayer Basket with the questions we bring directly to the Entity present through John of God. I believed him. From those lists, I clarified these three concrete questions oriented towards physical concerns: Continue reading “John of God – First Morning in the Casa Process”

John of God – Meeting Our Guide

When we decided to make the trek to Brazil and visit John of God’s Casa, I considered the possibility of using a guide. But not for very long. Having led meditation groups around the world, I felt downright confident in my ability to navigate the process. My friend felt differently, though, and she set us up with Immanuel (www.meetjohnofgod.com) who lives in Abadiania.

We met for dinner on our first day. First, he described his story – how he came to John of God six years ago suffering from a seizure disorder that doctors prescribed anti-pyschotic drugs to treat. Continue reading “John of God – Meeting Our Guide”

John of God – We are here!

We arrived after a red-eye flight, excited and sleepy. About a half hour from Abadiania, we could ‘feel’ the energies. How to describe what it felt like… subtle, yet clear that something changed; like an almost silent hum in the air.

The town is more like a village. There are cars, of course, but there are also horses drawing carts down the streets. Or should I say: one street. One main street. If the buildings were less colorful, I might think we were in the Wild West – that’s what the infra-structure reflects.

After stowing luggage in our Pousada, we ventured to the Casa bookstore where we ooh’d and aah’d over crystals (LOTS of them!) and signed up for the Crystal Beds… Continue reading “John of God – We are here!”

John of God, Here I Come

It’s only recently that I come to know of John of God; a friend saw him on Oprah and invited me to come with her to experience the healing vibe at his Casa in Brazil. I googled him.. and watched a dozen videos.

Fascinating! I couldn’t quite wrap my mind around the ‘physical’ surgeries, but – in theory – the nonphysical interventions all made sense to me. Having no experience in this medium (pun intended; >), I was drawn to the adventure of it all. I was willing to experience my own small miracle in however it showed up. I accepted the invitation.

I read more articles on the Internet and became even more fascinated. I took the steps of securing visas and flights and a place to stay; each step increasing my commitment. Each step a declaration of both intention and hope.

I pondered what I would bring to the table for John of God and the Entities to clarify and restore to Well-being. If you have read any of the articles from the Ahnalira’s Story category in this Blog, you know the options were endless – better to stay general and allow for an open-ended possibility than be specific and limit options. So, here it is. For the first time, expressed in writing as a request and an intention: Continue reading “John of God, Here I Come”

Living On The Brink of Perpetual Awakening

In December 1983, I was in a high speed/head on automobile collision that changed my Life to such an extent that I didn’t know what or how or who I would be after I recovered; people who knew me before the accident thought I must be a Walk-In (a popular concept back then). As I healed from the head injury and came to terms with type 1 Diabetes that emerged as a result of the accident… as I floated in the space between what was and what was becoming, I wrote this poem:

When the bottom dropped out,
I was scared.
Silly me.
For did these feet grow wings. Continue reading “Living On The Brink of Perpetual Awakening”
