| Illumination TherapyŠ
A radically new
approach to healing and spiritual growth using Light-as-colour,
Hypnosis and Elucidation.
By Swami Devageet
-- Dr.C.H.Newman BDS Dip.MDH.
Illumination TherapyŠ has
been developed from a core insight given to me directly by the
enlightened master Osho a short time before he died.
I am Osho's personal
dentist, and his disciple, and in the middle of one night in
1989, three months before he left his body, Osho called me into
his room and gave me a remarkable message. The whole meeting
took more than two hours. The complete message is too long for
this article but the essential points may be summarised:
Each individual's
physical body, especially the teeth and their associated
structures, are memory banks containing memories from
yesterday back to our evolutionary roots. It is a continuing
life process.
The memories, both
ancient and recent, are accessible.
Accessing the memories
reveals healing-core information that can enable healing to a
degree not possible by other means.
Specific memories form
the roots of all our behaviour patterns and our deepest
bio-physical conditioning.
Signs and symptoms of
any disease are rooted in healing-core memories containing
unconscious emotional and psychological contents.
Accessing specific
core-memories enables rapid and profound healing of physical,
emotional and psychological disease.
Accessing core-memories
enables rapid and profound spiritual growth, self-realisation
and integration.
The words 'Medication'
and 'Meditation' come from the same root: 'medi' - to come to
the centre, to heal.
[At Osho's request the
essence of his message was put out as a world press release.]
The next step came when
Osho asked me to communicate with the German naturopath, Peter
Mandel, who works with light-as-colour, and Kirlian Photography.
My training in Peter Mandel's Esogetic Colourpuncture led to the
techniques and discoveries on which Illumination TherapyŠ is
based.
Illumination TherapyŠ is
an effective way to access core memories stored in our physical
body for personal healing and individual spiritual development
Individual Healing program
of Illumination TherapyŠ.
Light applied to certain
acupuncture points on the body has been proven to affect regions
of the body remote from the site of application. These energy
pathways of acupuncture are the same used for the transmission
of light to heal human and animal bodies.
Light-as-colour when
applied to the human body for healing also enables the recall of
memories from early-life events, as well as having the proven
capacity to physiologically affect the body's natural healing
mechanisms and its metabolic activity.
Illumination TherapyŠ
provides simultaneous biological and psychological healing by,
a) stimulating the body's
natural healing processes, and
b) enabling the recall of
causative core-memories.
Thus it is a complete
mind-body healing process.
In the many years of
clinically working and refining this method I found that memory
recall and its attendant healing happens more easily when the
individual is deeply relaxed. A simple method of trance
induction is used for whole body relaxation.
The recollection of
forgotten causation memories is made easier by verbalising them
as they happen. This is called 'elucidation'. When an individual
spontaneously verbalises detailed memories released from the
unconscious mind by the application of light, those memories
become integrated in the conscious mind and their associated
symptoms disappear.
In 1905, Freud and Breuer
in their ground-breaking work, "Studies in Hysteria",
wrote: "we found to our to our great
surprise that each hysterical symptom disappeared when we
had succeeded in bringing clearly to light the memory of the
event by which it was provoked and in arousing its accompanying
effect, and when the patient had described that event in the
greatest possible detail and had put the effect into
words."
Most of our behaviour
patterns -- reactions to events -- were formed in our childhood,
babyhood, and even in the womb. Our present day illnesses are
similarly rooted in long forgotten events and their associated
emotions. Illumination TherapyŠ enables the release of these
deeply imprinted memories that are biologically and
energetically active despite being buried in our unconscious
minds and therefore "forgotten". The energetic effects
of disowned memories negatively influence our physical,
psychological and emotional state, creating dis-ease.
Illumination TherapyŠ
indicates that most physical disease symptoms arise similarly to
the hysterical symptoms studied by Freud and Breuer. Using
light-as-colour, hypnosis, and elucidation enables a similar
remarkable release of symptoms by enabling conscious recall of
causative core-memories at the root of any disease, not only
psycho-emotional diseases such as hysteria.
Illumination TherapyŠ,
using the same approach and method effects authentic spiritual
development and self-realisation.
All spiritual growth
arises naturally from our personal experience of life and the
inner understanding that is its outcome. Our daily
physical-psycho-emotional responses to situations form the warp
and weft of the fabric of our identity. The more we become aware
of what is actually happening in our lives -- why it happens,
and how we unconsciously influence it -- the more we grow in
wisdom and understanding. This growth in awareness,
understanding and responsibility for our own lives is real
spiritual development.
Awareness is a function of
higher consciousness and is enhanced and speeded up when we
deliberately examine the accepted beliefs, attitudes,
prejudices, opinions, theories and ideologies underpinning our
personality. In the crucial re-examination of the roots of our
identity, we discover the false assumptions that cloud the sky
of our inner clarity, preventing us from discovering and living
according to our own values.
Spiritual growth arises
from experiencing who we really are, not who we try to be in
order to win the approval of others. The aim of a seeker is to
directly experience their source, the true centre of their
being.
This quest for our real
self necessarily means that we drop any false ideas and notions
acquired along the way. We bring to reality -- real-ise -- our
deeper self, not as belief or hope, but in the solid reality of
self experience. Finding the reality of our true self is
self-realisation. In casting off what we find is not ours at all
but given to us from others we rediscover and directly
experience the reality of our authentic self.
The Spiritual Quest
program of Illumination TherapyŠ is a series of processes, each
comprising a number of individual sessions that systematically
and progressively dissolve our barriers to higher consciousness
and awareness. Experience is the key to real change and this
method safely enables you to come face to face with your
essence, the essential inner core of your life. This is your
inner truth.
The search for your truth
uncovers our evolutionary roots extending back before our human
experiences. The quest program of Illumination TherapyŠ enables
the conscious recall of experiences not only from our
early-life, but also past lives, pre-human evolutionary forms,
and before. We experience that our evolutionary past is the
evolution of consciousness, not mere biology.
Illumination TherapyŠ
enables the conscious recall of cellular and genetic memories.
Although this sounds
radical, and it is, it is the reality of our human roots
grounded in nature's wholeness. Each individual, you and me, as
a foetus in our mother's womb re-lives the human evolutionary
journey from single cell to fish, to amphibian and to human.
Ontogeny precedes phylogeny is a biological truth.
Illumination TherapyŠ
brings our evolutionary reality to personal experience, and the
conscious awareness enables profound dimensions of spiritual
awareness.
It is a paradox of the
spiritual path that each seeker must uncover their roots into
existence in order to reach the heights of their intrinsic human
potential.
The astonishing depth of
experience enabled by Illumination TherapyŠ, and the
corresponding expansion of spiritual awareness that is its
consequence, comes from its original source, the insight of the
enlightened master Osho.
Awareness is the
cornerstone of meditation, and meditation is the key to
spiritual unfolding. Illumination TherapyŠ, by enabling the
opening of previously unknown doors brings the solid experience
of the many dimensions of life to us. In the light of this
realisation we stand revealed in our own eyes as a vital
participator of the wonder of life as a loving, laughing, truly
human being.
