A moment of now, no beginning, no ending ; So totally merged

No longer exists, the phase of separation

No parting from self, now has come a time a state of shared recognition ; Knowing so profound

State of pure beingness with our consciousness, source

Imagine the joy ~ Then become it, union

Surrender to the vastness ; Dissolve into it

Indigenous Healing From the Himalayas

By: Carina Chatlani

Originally from Mumbai, India, I’ve had many experiences journeying through the Himalayas throughout the years. Even when my life in a Himalayan boarding school in the 1980s brought me face-to-face with various ailments, I still treasure the encounters I had with local healers who skillfully prepared an array of herbs that provided the right remedy for my afflictions. #health #india #healing #magic #healers #tibetan #sickness #carina #carinachatlani

Mystical forces

The Himalayas, with a wealth of medicinal plants and traditional knowledge, has been home to a host of different people and tribes leaving their signatures and creating a mosaic of cultures. Local gods and goddesses have been equated with the divine, and the Indian epic Mahabharata describes how the Pandava people journeyed through the Himalayas en route to heaven.

Although the tale’s origin dates back to the Middle Ages, the ancient rishis and sages discovered truth and created great commentaries from it, shaping influences still seen today in the region.

Indigenous systems of medicine are specially conditioned by this cultural heritage and these myths. The Himalayan people believe that unhappiness of such local gods is the cause of disease and often use magico-religious and natural therapies to appease them.
