Fighting belief systems and society
QUESTION: Masters, you said years ago that I serve people well either in the conventional world or complementary, it did not matter. Why then do I feel guilty to see so many suffer at the hands of conventional drug based medicine? And sickness is increasing: why? I think it’s because we are poisoning the Earth and ourselves: do the Masters agree? Medicine is so proud of solving sickness in ways that not only suppresses it to come back in another form and then blame it on the patient for not getting better, and the patient is not any wiser. I find it hard to see suffering when I have seen severe illness cured with detoxification, yet I think the suffering soul is here to teach us something. I want to do integrative medicine but find it hard to move out for fear of being attacked and not having enough skills. ~Amy, UK
ANSWER: You have training in both conventional and complementary medicine. You can do one or the other or you can combine them in order to help your patients. The first comment we have on your question is that you are not giving enough credit to the power that you have as a piece of Source. You are evaluating your power and abilities only as you believe others are evaluating you.
You also aren’t accepting that individuals make up their own mind as to what their beliefs should be. Most take the easy route of going along with the majority of society, i.e., that conventional medical practitioners know what they are doing and always do what is best for the patient.
Most medical personnel are taught that medicines are the only way of treating an ailment. As long as patients have that same belief, you are not going to be able to get them to even try an alternative procedure. You cannot control the decisions of others even if you know what is best for them. Part of their life lessons is to realize they have freedom of choice and then to decide what they want to do.
It is also impossible to convince people that changes need to be made unless they can see a need. What is happening in the world around you is the result of the totality of the life lessons of those sharing the planet with you. Each chose to be on the Earth at this time, knowing what would be happening.
Your next step is up to you, but it cannot succeed until you realize what a fantastic person you are. You are a piece of Source with all the strengths and abilities. What others say and think can affect you only if you allow it to by accepting that it is true and thinking they know more about what is right for you than you yourself. You can tap into the skills of the universe if you believe. Intention is the key. Know you can do something and you will accomplish it.
