Healing

Paramhansa Yogananda taught specific techniques for awakening the divine healing energy that flows within each individual. These techniques have been found to overcome physical, mental and spiritual diseases including serious illnesses. He emphasized that we should use our God-given powers to heal ourselves and others, but not think of these powers as our own.

Yogananda’s healing techniques include “…the scientific use of concentration and affirmations for healing inharmonies of body, mind and soul through reason, will, feeling and prayer.” He emphasized that darkness cannot remain where the Light exists. Attunment to the Divine Light (which is present in every atom of creation) through meditation, prayer and affirmation can drive away the darkness of disease in a person’s body, mind and soul.

Yogananda recommended that we approach God as His child with faith and trust and pray with devotion until all our doubts fall away. When we feel Divine Joy permeating our entire being, then we know that God is responding to our prayers, and that He will heal us according to divine will­ — in the way that is needed for our highest good.

Healing prayers are sent to others by drawing on this unlimited divine energy and then projecting it to the person in need.

We invite you to join the Healing Prayer Angels. Learn Yoganandaji’s techniques for healing at a distance and pray for individuals in need of healing on a daily basis.

The Healing Prayer Angels are blessed to pray for you and your loved ones. If you, or people you care for, are experiencing health challenges or a difficult life situation, we can pray for them at a distance. You may submit prayer requests for physical, mental, and/or spiritual well-being. Please fill the HEALING PRAYER REQUEST FORM to request healing prayer.

First prepare for this technique with prayer and meditation, calming the mind and asking God that Divine Will be done. Feel God’s presence as the source of all healing energy, and visualize as clearly as possible the person receiving this blessing. See him or her surrounded in God’s healing light and being supported on all levels and able to move through any challenges victoriously.

Repeat the following prayer:

“Divine Mother, Thou art omnipresent.
Thou art in all Thy children.
Thou art in [name of person needing healing].
Manifest Thy healing presence in his/her body, mind, and soul.”

Then rub the palms together briskly, hold up your hands and chant AUM three times, sending healing energy to that person as long as you feel to do so.

If you would like to join the healing prayer angels, please contact Nayaswami Roma at the centre and she will help you get started. It would be a joy to add you to the group and it is a great service to others!
