Dear Paul, Haha, well things get better they get worse, cycles abound! I know Deeksha is working for me, but I seem to be suppressing it a lot too… It’s like I’m cut off from my willpower and I do whatever I can to cover up the exposed emotional holes. I just wish it would all come out at once rather than this constant lingering uncomfortableness - I am so ready to feel the bliss!
I really enjoyed the night Bhavani and Buddha joined us for the Blessing. To have that kind of turnout and seven providers present was an amazing energy. I almost cried, I laughed inwardly to nothing and everything, you know? And it really was nice to have that many people there, it’d be nice if every time was like that. And I even heard a couple people having peak experiences, that was an experience in itself! Oh and then to play John Lennon’s “Imagine” at the end gave that song a new significance, it was like I was hearing it for the first time with a new mind…
Anyway, thank you for arranging all that, and to all the other Deeksha providers for sharing. Love…
Paul’s reply: We all cycle through our processing in different ways. I know that you have had some challenges but they too will pass. Sometimes we have to go through our “Dark Night of the Soul” before we can move on… But we can and will move on. Hang in there because it does get better… MUCH better!
I’ve heard all kinds of wonderful comments and observations about our OB with Bhavani and Buddha. It was the first time that we had seven OB facilitators together at one time in Dallas. Everyone really enjoyed ending the evening with the song, Imagine, myself included. And yes, I think most of us present were listening to the song through a new consciousness… and it was awesome! Thanks so much for your thoughtful and kind comments. Namaste.

Dear Paul, Well, I will give you the short version of my experience since it still continues to this day! I believe that our lives are changed and guidance is provided when we are open to God and the unconditional love that is given to us in the Oneness Blessings.
My wonderful experience that Friday evening is that as I received the first Blessing a purple color was shown to me while my eyes were closed. I receive the color purple when I am meditating and a message or guidance is about to be given. When the second Blessing was given, I felt my feet leave the floor and then the chair left the floor. I could no longer hear the music or anyone seated around me. I felt like I was in an egg or oblong shaped capsule. I felt a bright white light surround and hold me. This is the same feeling I receive when I need a hug from God. After a few seconds I felt my feet touch the ground and then the chair touched the ground. I started to hear the music and all of the people seated around the area where I was sitting. I did not feel anything with the subsequent Blessings and that is not to make light of them - I think I received enough with the first two!
As I continue with channeling healing to those who ask, I feel stronger and things come through much quicker. I mentioned above that this is a continuing development after receiving the Blessing. Many thanks for bringing the Oneness Blessing to all of Dallas and the surrounding areas.
Paul’s reply: Thank you for your thoughtful comments. As you have learned, we all have our own unique experiences while receiving the Oneness Blessings and afterward. It is taught in India that after receiving the Oneness Blessings that your natural talents and abilities increase exponentially, including your healing work. I think it’s great that you have already found this to be true for you and your own healing work on behalf of others. Many Thanks for the work that you do for others. Namaste.

Dear Paul, I want to thank you for the wonderful experience I had in the beautiful group you assembled recently and how much I enjoyed all of the Deeksha givers. This was indeed a magical gathering that I hope will be repeated. I know that the Dallas group will grow wonderfully with yours and the other local givers blessings. I will collect my thoughts as to your request of experience description, however it is truly beyond words.
Paul’s reply: Many Thanks for your kind comments. Namaste.

Good morning, Paul, During the last blessing (I think Vara Deeksha) Wednesday night I focused on healing for left sinus/tooth issues that had just come up recently …also general circulation. I have felt in the past a spontaneous opening up of all the sinus area in my head. It lasts for a minute, but starts with the nose and then travels up through the head. But Wed. it was just on the left side, the feeling of opening up, with the usual energy bursts through the body. Since then I have experienced a headache, really a hurting of the bones of my face, and am very tired. I am trusting that this is more clearing, and the body’s way of communicating with me. I have felt Amma’s touch several times and am most grateful for this awareness.
That is the simple physical ’stuff’. But sometime I would like to talk about the 21 day process… maybe I will become clearer about any questions after the meeting on Sunday. Am I correct? Sunday the 22nd. The mind can try to reason and weigh options, but this, of course, just puts me in a fog. Thank you for staying in touch…
Paul’s reply: Thank you for your comments. Healing, including energetic healing often is accompanied by a “healing crisis” where the symptoms increase for a time before subsiding. It is a necessary step on the road to recovery. I am assuming that is what you are referring to. Being tired (even for a few days) after receiving the energy of the Oneness Blessing is quite normal. There are many energetic “shifts” going on in your brain and your body so this is to be expected. No worries. It will pass.
With regard to your questions about going to India for the 21-Day Process… yes, the meeting for you and anyone else who is contemplating going to India is from 10AM to noon on Sunday, July 22nd at the Spiritual Fitness Center. I think you will find it much easier to determine if this is really your journey or not by attending that event. Further, if you have the time and resources, coming to the One-Day Intensive the day before might also help in that regard. It’s all up to you. Follow your heart rather than your head on these questions. The “mind” is always playing games with you and often makes it hard to determine right action. Let me know if there is anything else that I can do to help. By the way, there will be several of us OB facilitators at both the Saturday and the Sunday events this week. Five of us will be there Saturday and about that many on Sunday. Namaste.

Paul, Things have been different. The morning after my blessing, things were going great. I called my boyfriend, who works out of town, on my way to work. I was traveling after work that Thursday to see him. Just as we were ending the conversation, I mentioned that one of our dogs was happy to see him. My boyfriend said, “Oh No! You can’t bring Moke. I have no room for him.” So, I had to turn back around and get the dog sitter’s number, clean up a bit and such. To make a long story short, there was a moment of stress, but what I noticed was that I returned to center quicker than I ever have before. I am not quite sure of how to describe how things are different. It was like the blessing was an alignment. It is very powerful. Thank you for the blessing.
Paul’s reply: That’s very perceptive. It is an alignment. Actually, a re-alignment in your primary brain function so that you can more easily and automatically remain centered and balanced… not “thrown” or “charged” by what life brings you. I’m glad that you’ve had such a quick response. Everyone receives what they are ready for, and in their own time. Thank you for your thoughtful and kind comments. Namaste.

Hello Paul! I hope you are doing well… I am still vertical and breathing! Just kidding.
Do you know the name of the CD that was playing at the Oneness Blessing? I really liked it and would like to buy a copy. I recently located a CD of 5,000 year old mantras from India that was made in 1998. I used it during one of my meditations and I can’t remember anything from the CD. All I can remember is being told to lie down and then someone clapped my feet together and said I was done! The entire CD played and I did not hear anything.
I am working with a few people who have cancer and I noticed that the taste (cancer) that I usually receive is diminishing very quickly. That tells me the cancer (tumor) is shrinking.
Can you tell me what is the purpose of the event on Saturday? Is there training given or shared experience? Namaste’…
Paul’s reply: First, the name of the CD. Since Bhavani was the one playing the music, you would have to ask her. I just don’t know. Her email is: mhdolphins@xtra.co.nz. As far as the other CD you speak of, I don’t have a clue. I do know that the Chakra Dhyana (chakra balancing) CD that we sometimes play is a fairly recent recording of a meditation done in India for over 5,000 years. It’s very powerful.
I know that you do energetic healing work and after receiving the Oneness Blessing, your abilities should increase. That’s a good reason to continue receiving the OB… your healing abilities will eventually increase exponentially! I Bless you for the work that you do! Many Thanks!
The July 21st Saturday Intensive from 10AM to 5PM provides participants with many teachings, experiences, group healing, DVD from India with Satsangs from Sri Bhagavan and Sri Amma and more. I think you will find it most beneficial, especially considering what you do. If you decide that you would like to attend, please email me right away to reserve your space. A vegetarian lunch is included. (See www.deeksha-dallas.com and click on “Oneness Blessing Events” at the top of the page). Thank you for your thoughtful comments. Namaste.
