Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 The Angry Healer Can a healer given to unpredictable rage be able to listen patiently when the client prevaricates, or does not respond quick enough, or becomes irregular, or unconsciously does and says things which can aggravate and irritate, all the while being weak and vulnerable and needing a stable, patient and calm helping hand? There is so much anger these days, in so many walks of life, which so easily turns to rage. There is road rage, airplane rage, domesticate rage, workplace rage, school rage, even checkout line rage, and parking lot rage. Are we at a time, where the next level, of healer rage, is on the horizon? Or, more horribly, it has already arrived? Or the lesser evil, healer anger? Or even, the situation where the healer is angry with another situation, or is apt to become angry, is veering on rage, and then ventures to heal? Ours is an ancient art, which requires from us a great deal more, as healers, because of the nature of its construct, which works with Earth energies, rather than medications. If one tends to anger, one is in imbalance. If to rage, one is ill. In both cases recognition of what is happening, is paramount. Healing is in the knowing of ill health. As years proceed, more and more people are opting to traditional medicine. And in some sense, they are, in asking more from the healing, are also expecting more from the healer. For them a disappointment in one healer may very well become a disappointment the whole system. In which case the thirsty one will be so, even in an oasis. Dr.. Holmes Keikobad MB BS DPH Ret.
