The end of healing

[Guest guest]

Hello friends,

 

By way of introduction my name is Lonny Jarrett and I'm a

practitioner, teacher, and author in the field of .

I publish in the field and write extensively on value systems and healing.

Below is my post from friday to various news groups.

 

 

 

It's a pleasure to be here and I look forward to learning from/with

you. Warm regards, Lonny Jarrett

 

================================================================

I am declaring today, 5.30.08, to mark the official death of

humanistic, process oriented, psycho-emotional healing for all those

who have reached a world-centric level of development.

 

And thus we have the birth of a new medicine for a new humanity

stepping forward from here......

 

 

This just in! A friend and student of mine named Sarah Van Hoy,

L. Ac. is on the faculty of Health Arts at Goddard College. I just

received this note from her:

 

" A little note from evolution - I was at my faculty retreat yesterday

and we collectively decided that " process " in healing was done and

that, as faculty, we would hold something else - step into the One

Consciousness that is always there and move the world forward. This

is the new mandate of Health Arts at Goddard. " -Sarah

 

Isn't this fantastic? It's a big part of what I've been working for

these last 6 years. We are witnessing the end of the " therapeutic "

process where healing at the level of the heart and mind is thought to

take time. Simply put, the part of us that needs more time to heal

emotionally IS the disease itself in people who have reached a world

centric level of development. Clinical practice, as well as life, have

taught me that there are two sources of motivation competing for our

attention. The ego is that wounded, traumatized part of ourselves that

loves the process of healing but has no intention of ever being

healed. Its sole motivation is to preserve the past. The authentic

self, the spirit, doesn't need healing because nothing ever happened

there. It's only interest is living with more integrity RIGHT NOW. And

that's what holistic and integral healing is about-moving from a

relatively divided state to increasing states of wholeness and

integration.

 

 

From this perspective any modality that requires " process " is seen as

strengthening the presence of the disease by reinforcing a

dysfunctional relationship to time, thought, and feeling. It is my

estimation that the minimum requirement for anyone to be considered a

healer is that he or she has to have renounced the right to take any

more time for healing past " wounds and traumas " . Of course, this

renunciation could only meaningfully come from having fully

discovered, and given one's self to, that part of one's self that is

always more interested in creating the future than on overcoming one's

past. This is a sign of maturity that suggests the person is truly

more focused on living for the sake of the whole than on being self

absorbed.

 

I'm just giving notice that a new core value system is arising in

culture that obsoletes the " process " oriented, humanistic, values

focused on the patient as being a victim who needs time to heal from

his or her past. Just as the humanistic leanings of new age healing

have supplanted the materialism of biomedicine these last 40 years so

too will this new core value system wash over and erase the new age

values of the sensitive self, humanistic, psychological approach so

rampant in the alternative medical field.

 

It's not a question of " if " this transition will happen because it is

happening right now as evidenced by Sarah's letter. Of course, what

I'm pointing to is the leading edge of medicine. Emotional healing is

dead. Realization of the Self beyond the ego's emotional tides, right

now, is the rising star in what may be the first truly spiritually

based medicine to have appeared on the planet.

 

Submitted for consideration.
