January 5, 2002 (Part 2)

Okay, let’s get cocky for a moment.  I can take on you and your entire army of psychics.  Uh huh.  Sure.

Since we’ve been on the subject of confidence and ego, what about being cocky?  I do my best not to act cocky, or be ‘high and mighty’.  There are times when I just have to, even though I may not be.

A couple years ago, I was doing Reiki at my teacher’s psychic fairs.  One lady walked in with a friend, and they both signed up for Reiki.  The one lady came from Sedona Arizona, a hotspot for vortex energy and healing.  Her friend had read my pamphlet that I had out, and was asking her friend questions on Reiki.  She asked her friend if I could find the problems in her body.  Her friend replied, “If he’s any good, he should be able to find every problem you have.” 

I smiled, and looked up from the healing I was doing and said, “So the gauntlet has been thrown.”  Man, did I sound cocky.  When they each had their turns on the table I did a sight scan (which was all I had been doing as it had been accurate), and I also did a hand scan, just to be sure.  In each case, I found all of their problems.  Now, outwardly, I was cocky, but inwardly, it was a case of “ok, let’s hope we can find all these spots”. 

I have a friend very far away whom I talk with to help her with problems.  I guess I am doing counseling without a license, or degree, or training.  (It’s not the first time, and won’t be the last.  Empaths tend to do a lot of counseling.)  Part of what is going on is that she reaches a point where the only way she can take control of herself is to hurt herself.  I’m talking physically, usually with a knife, anything to cause pain. 

She got to his point one night (keep in mind we are typing at each other), and was telling me she needed to hurt herself.  I told her not to.  This went back and forth for a moment, and I told her that I would stop her if I had to.  Now, one might ask how could I physically stop someone from doing something several thousand miles away.  I was going to knock her out.

She kept telling me that she needed to hurt.  I told her that if she did I was going to put her down (and I wasn’t talking about telling her that she dressed funny).  Now, I have always felt that something like this could be done, I just never felt strong enough to do it.   In a normal circumstance, I would think of knocking someone out by draining every bit of energy I could from them until they passed out.  I have done this to some extent before to help someone go to sleep.  And pulling energies like this, even at these long distances is something I do all the time. 

But this night was different.  I know I sounded real cocky.  For the first time, I really felt I could back up my threats (or promises if you prefer).  I kept seeing pictures flash into my head.  These pictures were of hitting her over the head with a club or hammer.  (Amy uses a sledge hammer now and then to knock herself out when she needs to get sleep and can’t.)  I was being shown a quick effective method of putting her out.  I know it would cause no physical damage, or even psychological damage.  But it was actually like a blow to the head. 

Thankfully, she got passed the problem without hurting herself.  Thankfully, I didn’t have to find out if I truly could have done this or not.  I know its possible, but the right time and place need to occur for it to work, as well as a confident cocky attitude.  J
