Let go and Let God

Once upon a time, I sent healing to a friend's family. He was worried about issues that his parents were facing. They are from India and my friend lives in London so the distance was weighing on him. It is not easy to be far from home when things are not right with family. I sent energy healing for about 30 minutes, and was unsure what to do next.  

During the energy healing I worked on clearing some of the unhealthy patterns that had been handed down the ancestral line. When it was nearly over I was surprised to sense a very powerful, protective and intimidating energy around them. The energy was letting me know that he/it would take it from there. 



I had never felt anything so strong or powerful. My intuition told me it was noble, though I was also a bit awed and (very) scared. I asked for a name and got a one word answer: Ganesh. My first thought was "I must be crazy" but I went with it anyway. I got a strong feeling that he was looking after them and that I should pass that message on. He also suggested I back off, as my healing wasn't needed. I was reluctant to mention Ganesh to my friend because I might sound like a complete nutter. How could I see or hear him? 

I met this friend for coffee and I worked up the courage to mention it. He was shocked. He told me he had been asking Ganesh for help and had been feeling hurt because he thought Ganesh abandoned them. This is something we can all relate to. How many times have we asked God for help and then resented him for leaving us alone with our problems? I remember hearing sermons about it as a child, though it went in one ear and out the other. Even Jesus asked "Why have you forsaken me?"

The experience taught me three things: 

  • It would make all of our lives easier if we learned to tune into our intuition. Not everyone has a psychic friend who can spot the angel over their shoulder and confirm their presence. Faith can be reassuring, but certainty takes it to another level. You see it, you believe it, and that makes you feel better - knowing you're cared for. 
  • When we ask for Divine help it is best to back off. Whether it is God, a Saint, your favourite Archangel or even Jesus, Mary, Ganesh or a Goddess (I have glimpsed them too), let them get on with and then wait for a sign on how to proceed. They send us clues but often we are so stressed we miss it. Let go and Let God. Relax.
  • There is something to the many gods ( or all aspects of one?) view though I can't put my finger on it. I don't know what Ganesh is - a deity or a massively powerful being - but he is definitely real. He feels stronger and more powerful than the Archangels or even Mother Mary. It really was something else. I’ve gone back to say hello a few times ✨

    Does sharing have to be selfless or painful?

    One of the things that I have had to let go of is the idea that if we help someone, it has to be 100% altruistic - in order for the action to be good. I don’t know if this is an idea that I adopted in childhood seeing others hold up selflessness as good - “give till it hurts” etc. The world would be a much better place if we knew that it is always in our benefit to help others. We always get something in return, directly or indirectly 💛 🫶🏻 Research shows that kindness makes for a much healthier society. I read a book last year called Shadow, Self & Spirit on transpersonal (or collective) psychology. There was a chapter on the psychology of evil and violence. People are less likely to harm others if they experience some form of compassion in their lives, or if they believe that someone cares about them - even if it’s a public figure, a politician, a celeb, or a deity like Quan Yin. Or better yet, family members, friends, and strangers. Random acts...

    My 1st Psychic Development Class - 10 Years Ago!

    In January of 2010, I signed up for my first clairvoyance workshop. Feeling curious but skeptical - would I be able to do any of the activities in the class description???    That skepticism disappeared by lunchtime when we finished the first exercise. The teacher put us in pairs and guided us through a meditation where we each visited the place where the other student lived.   We began by activating our Aura, and through it, our intuition .  The teacher then asked a series of questions: do they live in a city, what do you see in the street, how far from the neighbors, what color is the building, do you walk right through the front door into their home or is it a journey? The questions continued - how many bedrooms, how are they decorated, what is in the fridge, what is the view like? How many people live there? Do they have pets? What type of music do they listen to, etc.  When we came out of the meditation, the teacher told us to describe what...

    Is Manifesting for Real?

    A while ago I wrote a post asking if spirit guides are real - pointing out that we have to challenge our beliefs, and also how we interpret what happens to us. Let's not get stuck in an idea or a worldview.  So today I'm going to take this approach to manifesting - is it for real? I don't think manifesting is for real, nor should it be the main focus in our lives. And honestly, I say this despite evidence to the contrary in my own life, i.e. things that I've manifested.   My issue with manifesting is that it's focused on ourselves, and what we can get in the material world. Personally, I've had good results applying conventional methods to get ahead - with help from my angels and guides. But still, it took drive and ambition to find a good corporate job in London, years ago. That and focusing on my personal competencies, and on the soft skills that were needed. Putting myself out there, networking, knocking on doors. Real world activities. And luck, that is a...
