Sikh
Healing
The Sikh religion was founded by Guru Nanak (1469-1539) and
believes in one transcendent, inexpressible and formless divinity,
who is manifest everywhere in the world he has created. By meditating
on the name of the God, the true nature and essence of god could
be revealed. Sikhs believe that religion is useless if the worshipper's
heart remained immersed in the material world.
Just like most form of spiritual healing, the Sikh spiritual
healing involves the recognition and acceptance of a God beyond
our own intelligence and with whom we can have a relationship.
This God can provide an experience of inspiration, joy, security,
peace of mind, and guidance that goes beyond what is possible
in the absence of the conviction that such a power exists.
Sikh Spiritual healing is when energy is transmitted to the
person who needs it. The treatment works on the body, mind and
spirit, which are seen as one unit that must harmonize for good
health. If a separate healer is involved, the healer will place
the hand on the person being treated to channel the energy from
the Higher Source. The spiritual healing can help mental and
emotional problems and physical conditions such as a frozen
shoulder.
Sikh healing came be done through prayers and music. The sacred
music of the Sikh religion known as Gurubani Kirtan. These hymn-poems
interpreted with rich instrumentation and vocals are compositions
of the Sikh gurus who wrote them in a state of divine ecstasy.
"Kirtan" is the practice of call and response singing,
so that the practitioner may both hear and recite these sounds,
so as to take them into the body/being for the purpose of up-liftment.
Sikh Prayer for Abundance
May the kingdom of justice prevail!
May the believers be united in love!
May the hearts of the believers be humble, high their wisdom,
And may they be guided in their wisdom by the Lord.
Glory be to God!
Entrust unto the Lord what thou wishest to be accomplished.
The Lord will bring all matters to fulfillment.
Know this as truth evidenced by Himself.
