Today, more than ever before, there are a huge variety of healing modalities available to the average person. Types of healing that were once exclusive to a geographical area are now easily accessible. One form of healing that is growing in popularity is energy healing, and many people report beneficial results from different forms of energy healing. 

But is this type of healing really as safe and beneficial as some claim? Are there certain unforeseen consequences of performing energy healing? Could this type of healing even lead to negative outcomes for the healer and the one being healed? 

Hear Sadhguru address energy healing and speak on the reasons why this type of healing should generally be avoided. Unless one’s involvement is total, performing energy healings can be detrimental to both all parties involved.

That’s Not the Way to do Surgery

Sadhguru suggests that energy healing should be avoided, “Not because we are against relieving another person’s pain, but you meddling with another person’s life process without knowing the whole of it is irresponsible. It is like, these days you can see videos of major surgeries happening. So you saw a video like this, you observed everything very carefully. Tomorrow somebody has a problem, you take a shaving razor and decide to do a surgery upon him. I’m telling you, some people may survive this. People have survived such things, isn’t it? Many times in battle zones, in nature when accidents happened, people have performed absolutely crude surgeries upon somebody, and they have survived. But that doesn’t mean that’s the way to do surgery, isn’t it? That’s not the way to do surgery, isn’t it so? It’s just that some people might have survived such surgeries. In extraordinary conditions, it was done.”

Playing God

Sadhguru says, “any kind of meddling with other people’s energies is very juvenile. It’s coming out of a certain immaturity, and a certain egoistic state of wanting to play God. If it is coming out of compassion, what’s your problem? Let everybody’s karma come to you – as long as he is relieved, what is your problem? That’s not it; you want to play God with gloves on. It doesn’t work like that. God didn’t play the games with you, the conspiracy with you, with gloves on. He got himself into you to play this game. It’s only the priest who told you that He is sitting up there and watching everything. But look at the way life is happening: the source of creation got itself trapped in you, isn’t it? Yes? Isn’t it so? Unless you have that kind of involvement, you don’t meddle with such things.”
