    Dear Johan,

    >> I too have taken up Pranic Healing, and will soon be a registered
    Pranic Healer and plan to do it full time. <<

    Good for you. :)

    >> First I would like to say that I do not think that Karmic debt is a
    problem for a healer. If I work on a patient I do so with
    loving-kindness and compassion. If the patients Karma is such that he
    must die, I will not be able to heal him at any rate. At the most I will
    be able to ease suffering. Karmic debt will then be positive for me. <<

    We fear disease and fear witnessing another suffer, so we tend to think
    of illness and suffering as a negative things that must be obliterated
    as soon as possible and by whatever means available. However, from a
    perspective of Universal Legality, illness is a gift that is meant to
    teach us an important karmic lesson that we have not been able to learn
    in the absence of disease. A healer interferes with a patient's karma
    the moment they remove the symptoms of disease without assuring that the
    patient does indeed learn the lesson that the disease was meant to teach
    them. If the patient does not learn the karmic lesson then what the
    "healer" has done is taken away an opportunity for the patient's growth.
    That specific opportunity that the "healer" has taken away was the most
    appropriate way that was available for the patient to learn their karmic
    lesson. This means that the patient will still have to learn that
    lesson, either by other means or by a recurrence of the same disease
    that the "healer" has just treated.

    >From a Legalistic perspective, true healing occurs when the subject has
    learned the karmic lesson that the disease is intended to teach. So in
    effect, when only the symptoms of disease are eliminated and the lesson
    is thus avoided (albeit, temporarily) the evolution of the patient has
    been slowed or diverted. This does incur a karmic debt for the
    "healer".

    >> My charging money, and your TMO group not accepting money is less
    about philosophy, and more about practicality. <<

    To my mind, issues of practicality are where questions of philosophy are
    the most important. Claims of practicality should not be used as an
    excuse to ignore philosophy. :) This would be the same as saying that
    the ends justify the means.

    >> I have spent a long time pondering the subject, and I have now
    started to
    charge money for healing. My fee is much less than other healers, and if
    the patient cannot afford, I do it for free. Most of my patients have a
    hunger for spiritual advancement, and I do sometimes spend hours with
    them, and I feel strongly that I cannot receive money for that. For me
    to be a great healer I have
    to heal on a regular basis. By that I mean full time. And working on my
    own
    progress is also a full time affair. I need not say more:) As healer I
    am rendering a service, and am entitled to compensation. I have very
    real costs as I have to travel. And the courses I take to become a
    better healer is not cheap. <<

    Your decisions and the rationale you use to justify them are your
    business, not mine, and I'm *not* standing in judgment of them. :)

    >> The law also states that what you sow, so shall you reap. If the
    patient pays for healing, is he not more entitled to receive healing? <<

    Why on earth would *any* one be *less* entitled to healing than anyone
    else? What you've just implied is that those who have money are *more*
    entitled to healing than those who do not have money. What about your
    statement above that if someone can't afford your fee you will treat
    them for free? Does it then follow that you will treat them less
    thoroughly because they have less of an entitlement to treatment?

    >> As TMO working group is a service you render after hours, and not the
    work you do, It would be inappropriate to make money. <<

    That has nothing to do with our decision.

    >> If a patient does offer money, would it not perhaps be more
    appropriate to gracefully accept, and then donate the money to a
    worthwhile charity. Then the patient has been able to sow, and your
    group has incurred positive karma, as you have channeled the money for
    good? <<

    To my mind, all that this would accomplish is a reinforcement of the
    capitalist ethic of "you get what you pay for". Instead, when we
    decline payment, we are promoting a different ethic that says there are
    folks who exist with motivations other than making a buck, folks who
    choose to give simply because they can and not for personal gain. It
    places our interaction on an entirely different footing -- that of
    simple human kindness and sharing. Kindness and sharing are actions
    that multiply positivity in the world.

    >> When healing for free one also has to be on guard as not to feel
    morally and
    spiritually superior to those who do charge. <<

    For the TMO-WG, feelings of superiority have no place in our work and
    what others do or do not do has no relevance to what we do. Our healing
    work is not about *us* -- it is about our subjects.

    My best to you,
