Words of wisdom from those who have journeyed the path. The methods they have used and are still using. "...give any information you have garnered to a fellow traveler along the Way. Why? Because the same information would have helped the person who compiled it if it had been given to him, and that is why he compiled it --- and that is why it should be offered to others along the Way." An interpretation from the works of: WEI WU WEI

Mullah Nasruddin's practical faith!
Mullah Nasruddin was a Sufi. There are numerous stories about him that are wise and humurous! A man who never took himself seriously...a receipe for a happy life!!!
An Answered Prayer
God will provide, Nasruddin told a man that complained that all his money, twenty silver pieces, was stolen. Really? I doubt it, said the man skeptically. Well, come, I'll show you, said Nasruddin leading him to the communal place of prayer. God, please give this man back his twenty silver pieces!! yelled Nasruddin upon entering. Please, God! He is a good man, and this stolen money was all he had!!! He kept on shouting and imploring God, until the upset and annoyed congregation made a quick collection, and gave him the cash. You may not understand the means, said Nasruddin handing the man the money, but I'm sure you trust the end...
Having said that!
I do not mean to discourage or disparage Healers in any way. To each his own. I am more drawn to teaching so I focus more on that. And I do not mean to imply that going to a healer is not helpful; it definitely helps to activate and accelerate the removal of blockages and promote healing. But a lot of the work has to be done by ourselves and there has to be a commitment to work on ourselves otherwise the healing will not be permanent and the problem will recur; certainly through no fault of the healer.
