Entangled in Darkness: How to Find the Light

Lisa Garr (theawareshow.com)

Deborah King

Master healer and urban shaman, [and sexual abuse survivor], Deborah King (DeborahKingCenter.com),  was a successful attorney in her 20s when a diagnosis of cancer sent her on a search for truth.

It radically changed her life. Unwilling to undergo invasive (and harmful) surgery, she turned to alternative medicine. She had an amazing remission at the hands of a healer. Leaving the corporate arena for the mysterious world of healers, sages, and shamans, King mastered ancient and modern healing systems, ultimately developing a powerful healing technique of her own.

 

Her latest book, Entangled in Darkness: Seeking the Light, explores the purpose of the age-old battle between light and dark that is waged within us. 

INTERVIEW (9-12-13) The Aware Show’s special guest this week is spiritual teacher, health-and-wellness expert, and New York Times best-selling author Dr. Deborah King. Take an excursion into the inner sanctum of the "soul," our deepest sense of self, to help us understand why we are here.
 
What is the purpose of the age-old battle between light and dark? It is being waged within us all. She will help deepen our insight into how and why we might be entangled in darkness and provide us with practical tools to infuse our lives with light. King talks about techniques to clear negative energies, dark entities, cordings, and intentional and unintentional attacks. More

A Loved One in the Bardo?
(HayHouseRadio.com) Ever suspected that someone stuck in the Bardo (see Tibetan Book of the Dead) — an in-between state some go to when they die because they can’t find the Light — is trying to hitch a ride out of there? Deborah tells the astonishing story of how she connected with the Bardo one day only to have thousands of “hitchhikers” latch on to her and how she helped them on to the Light.

First-person: Child Molestation
Dr. King's book Truth Heals is an expose of the childhood sexual abuse she experienced as a child.

This happened at the hands of her father and a member of the Catholic clergy. Each chapter deals with a chakra (energy center) and how blockages lead to common diseases.

Along with the groundbreaking work of Dr. Gabor Mate, Burton Goldberg (cure depression), Dr. Hyla Cass, Byron Katie, and Eckhart Tolle... we are seeing that thoughts are things. We have contol of them, and when we do not exercise that control, we are at the mercy of compulsive thinking and suffer the predictable health consequences.

Our society has a taboo about molestation -- not about doing it. Our taboo is about talking about it.

"Rare is the five year old who understands the meaing of the world vocation, and yet I was quite certain of mine -- to be a nun. Parading around in a makeshift habit fashioned out of sheets and a giant rosary tied around my waist, I'd slip a pebble in my shoe and put a piec of burlap against my skin for penance. Envious of the altar boys who were learning Latin, I hid in the choir loft during their lessons and mastered the language of the Mass in secret. One rainy day when I was eight, I went to my favorite hiding spot in the choir loft during lunch recess.

"I pictured the Virgin Mary before me and closed my eyes in prayer. When I heard Father Fitzgerald's footsteps on the stairs, I knew this meant trouble.

"'What are you doing up here, my child?' he asked. I darted for the stairs, but he caught me by a braid. He held me in place, one alabaster hand on each arm. He smelled like fried potatoes. His long black cassock was button all the way to the floor; his black shoes were as shiny his greasy hair. 'You little temptress,' he whispered. 'I know you've been tempting your father, bless his soul. It is my duty to straighten you out.' He [molested her].

"The Virgin Mary appeared before me. The folds of her gown rippled like waves as she came close. A bright blue light sparkled all around her. After some time, she disappeared. I was once again alone."

ASTRAL TRAVEL
Eat well. Purify intentions. Focus on the Buddha (or similar figure). Meditate for a few hours. The best time for astral projecting is between 2:00 am and sunrise (which varies). Breath manipulation (prana-yama) is a great preparatory exercise. Slip into other dimensions. Then Buddhist texts dealing with other worlds can be read as literal. Shifting back to "waking consciousness" takes 10 to 15 minutes. Write down what can be remembered, meeting guides or questions asked, because memories will fade just as with dreams.

Shamans and Afghans (video)

Amber Larson, Dhr. Seven, Ashley Wells, Wisdom Quarterly; AFP News Agency

No shamans are allowed in Afghanistan, once a Buddhist country now overrun my militant Islamists and pessimistic Muslims that has also displaced even a trace of its mystical, Buddhist-influenced Sufi school. The Pashtun, Tajik, Kazakh, and other ethnic or tribal minorities are not the Indian (Gandharan, Indo-Greco), Iranian (Ariyan/Persian), Central Asian people who thrived in the area before and after the time of the Buddha and the birth of Buddhism.
 

(AFP) Devastated Afghans keep searching for victims' bodies after a landslide in northern Badakhshan province above Kabul that entombed a village, killing thousands of people and leaving 700 families homeless in the mountains. See Another Tragedy in Afghanistan

(AFP, May 5, 2014) There are estimated to be thousands of shamans or "spirit healers," who are called on as medicine men and women in traditional ethnic villages in China, but mass migration to cities has meant the prospects for the profession are looking bleak. Of course, those people will be back when their health deteriorates using super toxic Western (allopathic) chemicals and medicaments.

"Pasadena is the Varanasi (Benares) of the United States," according to Paramahansa Yogananda. The Dalai Lama and Thich Nhat Hanh visit nearly every year as many Eastern masters before them did.

Now join a line of incredibly popular spiritual materialists, world-famous New Age thinkers, urban shamans, and Hay House authors for a weekend retreat in Pasadena!

Join Hay House for a day or the entire weekend! The conference features Colette Baron-Reid, Joan Z. Borysenko, Ph.D., Gregg Braden, Sonia Choquette, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, Debbie Ford, Louise L. Hay, Robert Holden, Ph.D., John Holland, Deborah King, Brad Lamm, Denise Linn, Bruce H.

It's strictly a coincidence that all of the featured authors are white or Jewish, not prejudice at Hay House. Things were different in the 1940s! It's not like unintentional bias gets pointed out to the octogenarian publisher by her authors. Who dares rock the boat when there is still so much money (abundance) to be made?

Benefits of Daily Meditation (radio)

Deborah King, Ph.D.

Ever daydreamed of turning back the clock to a more youthful, energetic, carefree time in life? Or perhaps having a magical cosmic Undo button to erase certain effects that have accumulated over time — from stress, abuse, or other erosive habits which leave us with less than perfect health or a waning enthusiasm for life?

• LISTEN: Through the Meditation Portal (September 15, 2010) Meditation is for everyone! Deborah will discuss meditative practices and the beneficial results on health, well-being, mind, brain, and spirit. This show is for anyone feeling stressed, crazy/busy, anxious! Listen live

Science and religion alike have studied and documented the numerous benefits of meditation. They reveal that meditation has a positive effect on people suffering from, or at risk for, many physical and mental health conditions.

Meditation expands consciousness by helping us get into the space or gap between thoughts. It taps into the incredible energy that exists there: There is a thought, then another thought, but between the two, there’s a little space. According to the ancients, the space between thoughts is the portal to the infinite intelligence of the universe, or Source. Call it "Buddha Nature," "God," "Universal Energy," "Spirit," or even the elusive "Unified Field."

Regret Kills (so stop it)

Deborah King, Ph.D.

Buddhism teaches that guilt and regret are misguided actions. They are, in fact, additional bad karma on top of the act that inspired such brooding in the first place. Solution? New good actions will dilute one's store of past bad ones. What is guilt?

While much of the regret we harbor inside comes from our own actions (infidelities we’ve had, accidents we’ve caused, debt we’ve gotten ourselves into) and things we failed to do (opportunities unexplored, love not shared, forgiveness unspoken, once-in-a-lifetime events not attended), sometimes regret stems from something that has nothing to do with us.

Sometimes it's something we have absolutely no control over or say in. Sometimes regret — feelings of grief, sorrow, and remorse — comes from our exposure to the world’s innumerable tragedies and devastations. According to the mind-body connection, what enters our consciousness also enters the rest of our being. When we take in energy from the outside world, attaching emotions like remorse and sorrow, it has to go somewhere. Unless we release it, which few know how to do, it goes into our body. There it blocks our energy field, causing stagnation and ultimately a physical or mental disease condition.

I hear this complaint all the time at my energy healing workshops. I see the havoc too much empathy is having on people’s lives. So what can we do if we’ve already depleted ourselves to the point of anger and resentment, disempowerment, and/or illness? Click here for simple steps to help pull out of a regretful state and reverse any blockage accumulating in our energetic, emotional, and physical systems!
