During the Meditation Course Vanessa Graham had the following experiences
It was nearly two years ago that I completed the first half of the EE course in Spain with Satchi and Devi. In one respect it seems just yesterday but in another a life time away. A lot has happened in my life between that time deaths, births, daughter’s marriage, ill health; the usual variety of life’s traumas. I returned from the first course full of determination to follow my spiritual path, I was going to do such great things but being a wife and mother just took over. At the times when I most needed to practice I did not, which in turn lead to much inner suffering.
I was also struggling to get myself acknowledged as a spiritual person by those close to me. I was tired of living two lives, one as a family person and the other as a spiritual one. To incorporate the two was no easy task and relationships problems developed which that is what really brought me back to the course. I needed ways of dealing with relationships of close to me. I had enough of being drawn into emotional traumas and expectations. I needed the tools to develop non-attachment, whilst at the same time being more open and loving. I needed a better understanding of how to stop my energies from being drained from me and I came back to the course as I needed to find the answers.
The two year gap had been beneficial in that I came with a renewed conviction to learn and develop from what was being taught. I had found I tended to live an insular spiritual life at home, although I was able to learn from the gurus and swami’s I mixed with.
I was pleased to join an ongoing group half way through; I was welcomed and made to feel a part of it immediately. The group provided a valuable learning environment as its members explained their personal experiences, as previously on my own I often wondered was it just me who felt like this. I was deeply touched by their commitment and determination to follow a spiritual path despite all the difficulties. I appreciated being part of the group, over the two weeks I felt a unity of spirit amongst us we acted as a whole and not separate individuals, a sense of oneness and harmony developed. The benefit of the course was the tackling of shared difficulties, as well as learning new techniques with like minded people.
The course is very user friendly and can be easily related to everyday life and the problems that occur in it. Blockages, strategies and inner children all had to be worked on and along with this came the realisation of the benefit of a maintenance programme to be carried on when I return home.
Satchi and Devi are intuitive teachers who know what is best for you and can point you in the right direction. It has been noted by the other group members that my appearance has improved in just one week and I can feel the inner changes that have taken place. My energy levels are high, I have a lightness about my body and a tranquil calmness surrounding me, what more could I want.
At the time of writing we are tackling relationships, having brought about change in ourselves through the techniques learnt on the course we can now bring about change in our relationships with others. This was an important area in my life that I wanted to tackle if I was to move on in my spiritual path. I was trying to merge my family life with my spiritual one and was having problems with those close to me incorporating into their lives. Hence their relationship with me and vice versa needed to be healed in order to create a more spiritual environment. The Energy Enhancement course gave me the tools that can be used in everyday life when I return home. The tools taught are the cleaning of the chakras as well as the lines of communication between chakra to chakra from yourself to another person. At the same time their auras and energy fields can be cleansed. EE is a method for healing yourself and others.
I was putting this into practice with my husband who came to Argentina with me to keep me company but not to participate on the course.For the first time in his life he picked up a spiritual book to read, which is something I had hoped would happen for many years, and goes to prove something must be happening. I look forward to practising the techniques on my return.
My insight and intuition have developed on the course and many experiences have happened to prove that the teachings do what they say. One night a vision came of the Time Line, which we had just learnt about that day on the Energy Enhancement course. I had never seen one before but it was so clear that it left no doubt to its existence. The course is experiential you know it works when you experience it, you do not have to accept what is being said blindly. You have to trust your own abilities to gain from the teachings and it will be revealed to you.
This happens very effectively with the Energy Enhancement Reiki teachings. By giving Reiki to a person they will know that the energies do exist and will lead then to a greater understanding of what meditation is about. I have always wanted to help people through meditation and was pleased Reiki tied in with EE. I can feel the energies descend through me and be transmitted to the person being healed. It is that connection with a higher force and its flow, that has created some very moving experiences I had had with Devi. She is a wonderful teacher of it and her hands give all the learning necessary.
There has been an expansion of my energy fields that I would not have achieved on my own or elsewhere. To be able to use the energies in a healing way has been a blessing. My original expectation from the course was to increase my knowledge of the energies by direct experience of them to gain wisdom and this has been fulfilled. The EE techniques have deepened my spiritual understanding and also enhanced my spiritual practice. I intend to pass on this knowledge to those I meet on the meditation path. The course has given me confidence to handle the internal saboteurs we all have within us and carry on my spiritual journey with renewed vigour.
The warmth and caring ways of Satchi and Devi have provided a safe environment in which to learn. Many distractions can come to stop you coming on the course but they need to be overcome if you really want to progress on your spiritual path. My deep gratitude and thanks go to both Satchi and Devi for giving so much of themselves.
