Hi WildStrawberry
Thank you for your candour. 🙂
Thanks Paul, I appreciate everything your saying here. I might take your post over to another forum and thread and explore some of the points you raise in more detail, at some point in the near future, if that's alright with you.
Yes I would be happy to discuss the things that you wish to explore on a new thread, I was thinking the same thing when I posted your response earlier. 🙂
As for the rest of your post, let me reassure you that it is your fears which are holding you back, well that and the addiction to it, but the reality is that it is working as a distraction that is stopping you from experiencing the rest of your life experience, all things in moderation and occasional excess is the order of the day.
I can guarantee that if you put this on the back boiler by making a consciousness intention to turn it off, it will still be there when you can put some quality time aside to address it in a more constructive way, in that way you can get on with life and learn to understand and make better use of this in the future. 🙂

Yes, I know it's my fears that are holding me back..... and the fears all revolve around these abilities and my understanding, and them not reaching their potential.... huh!
What a fascinating thread. Don't worry Energyplz. The debates on here are a model of respect compared debates for supposedly professional pharmacists. You would not believe the level of personal abuse that gets thrown around at times!!
My personal view on the question posed is that it was my higher self that led me to reiki. So my higher self is PART of me - the part of me that STOPS my ego getting in the way. The part of me that recognises that I don't do anything when I give reiki -I just have to let the reiki do what is needed. It is my higher self that helps me set my intentions.
Hi Tashanie, while I agree with you that our Higher selves guides us, and it also knows what is best for our highest good, but what happens when our ego steps in, where does our higher self go then, is it still part of us, just not in control?, I think we all fall into the ego trap at times, we are human after all,,..

Jnani, all of the aspects of a person which you are judging here to be I I I I me me me me - aren't they aspects of God also - in my very strong view they are. I for one would not want to do an injustice to any natural/God given abilities.
Who is it that's perceiving all of the jarring your talking about Jnani - is it you and the the props that you've created for yourself again:);)
God given is everything...not just abilities. everything. The game goes on regardless of what one thinks they should or should not be doing.
I I I me me me my my my is never anything other than jarring. Not jarring on me, or anyone in particular, just jarring. Like love is pleasing..not to just me or anyone is particular, is just pleasing.

Fear creates inner divisions, which create inner conflicts, if you find that you cannot heal this inner rift to embrace the wholeness that you require to move forward, then I would be happy to help you to clear the fear of losing your ability through turning it off. 🙂

Thanks Paul, I'll give it some consideration. But for now, I'll pick my way forwards, and see what happens:) .
Hi Starr
You appear to have a misunderstanding about you being separate to your ego, they are one and the same thing, you cannot blame your ego for anything, for it is always you that make the final choices, your ego is nothing more that the way that you choose to perceive yourself.
Your higher self is not in control of you at all whist you are here (you have a free will to choose), it is happy to help you to experience anything that you choose to experience within your life experience, but it will not tell you what to experience or how you should experience it, that is entirely up to you to decide and discover for yourself. 🙂
Hi WildStrawberry
No problem, it is often better if we can find our own way, as we learn much more that way. 🙂
Here is an interesting look on what is your higher-self (your Spirit) and your Karma!
It would be interesting to know what you think! I know that many energy healers reported a yellow sphere as person's higher self as well as person's mental body (body of memory) during healing sessions.

First video in the article gives an interesting explanation to what is our higher-self. You can also search for "lifexpert karma definition" to find this article.
