tians, Greeks, Babylonians (probably even the ancient
Sumerians) and other ancient civilizations had great temples dedicated specifically for this type of healing. Almost every major religion and spiritual practice today talks about the light within, the light above, being connected to the light, and instills that the path to true health and life is via light.
Today this form of healing has been
revitalized due to our ability to control and reproduce specifically the direction, intensity, and frequency (color) of the light, and then combine that with it being more portable than ever before. Over the last 40+ years, there have also been new scientific breakthroughs and understanding via biophysics and through the work of Prof. Dr. Fritz-Albert Popp and others. We are seeing through modern sciences that the body’s
Color Light Therapy: Esogetics Colorpuncture
One of the most well rounded ver-
sions of color light therapy today, in my belief, is Esogetics (Colorpuncture), developed by Peter Mandel over 40 years ago. It compounds upon the early works of Augustus Pleasanton and Edwin Babbitt and combines it with many of the naturopathic and hermetic philosophies and principles found around the globe as well as modern scientific advancements. The name Esogetics comes from a combination of the two words: Esoteric and Energetic. Esoteric means old world knowledge and energetic means the new, scientific knowledge of our age and in Esogetics, you can find traces of over 200 different holistic healing modalities.
With the light therapies, we uti-
lize specific colors (frequency) of light on precise points of the body (acupuncture/ pressure points, reflexology zones and other energetically sensitive points) and the contained microsystems (skull somatotopy, auricular, Putkammer segments, facial physiognomy and others) to help balance the yin/yang energy flows as well as to provide new, correcting information that causes a cascading reaction within the mind, body, and soul which then allows for the core conflict to resolve. In the light therapies, we have a total of 16 different colors (Infrared, red, orange, yellow, green, dark turquoise, blue, violet, ultraviolet, crimson, light green, light turquoise, rose, as well as three grey colors) that we utilize in literally thousands of specified therapy protocols.

HEALING WITH LIGHT AND COLOR

Pranic Healing uses crystals as energy conductors
W
HEN
I
first
came into the world of Pranic Healing, using crystals
was
not my forte. As a child, I was always intrigued by crystals but using them for healing seemed foreign and a bit unpractical. This was largely due to my lack of experience, as well as a misunderstanding on how they work. Master Choa Kok Sui describes crystals as subtle energy condensers that we use for healing because they can absorb, store, and project pranic energy. This is the entire basis behind Pranic Crystal Healing, the fourth level of healing in our lineage.
According to our teacher, we
have three main sources of energy. The sun, the air, and the earth are the main sources of chi or prana that we gather from our surroundings. Crystals contain condensed earth prana that can be easily absorbed and digested by our energy body. Most people, especially when they are sick, vibrate at a level that is closer to the earth than the more refined energies such as solar prana or divine energy. This makes the use of crystals when doing energy work highly effective.

OU ARE God. You are the Universe. You are the light of life, love, and goodness. How and why is that so?
You have learned at our religious insti-
tutions that “you are created in the image of God,” so are you not then God? God is light, love, and all goodness. Therefore you must be light, love, and all goodness. One of the Eastern philosophies, Taoism, teaches that each organ and indeed each cell is a microcosm within a macrocosm; each cell contains all properties that exist in the entire universe. So are you not then the universe? Life Energy Is Light
Life energy is light. Jesus was the
light in healing; many images showed the aura and rays of light beaming on and from him. Biofeedback and Kirlian photography of qigong masters, clients, and students in a “healing state” have depicted light energy emissions from parts or all of the body, such as light beaming from the hands. Chow Qigong teaches students to work with this light energy.
