Tibetan Shamanic Land Healing

Land Healing

CREATING SACRED SPACE

While we go about our busy daily lives, filled with material objects, activities, goals and projects, there are many unseen forces that strongly determine our success, fulfillment and future happiness. These include internal causes, such as karma patterns, the fruition of our past actions, as well as the outer energetic forces. The effects of the earth and land, stellar forces, emotional imprints and the intersection of numerous spiritual influences, have a tremendous impact on our lives. Traditionally, Tibetan lamas were called upon to perform special rituals, a kind of “technology of the sacred“, including land healing, in order to eliminate negative conditions and enrich and purify the environment and its inhabitants with positive forces. Such rituals can enhance our health, wealth, relationships and all aspects of our personal path and life journey of development and transformation. In this context, these practices are a blend of practical shamanic practice and traditional tantric Buddhist practice, originating in ancient India.
Below is the spectrum of rites that are used in sequence to heal, energize and sanctify one’s environment and one’s mindstream.

1. BLESSING — Fire offering

The Sang offering is a Tibetan core ritual of shamanic land healing that uses fire and smoke to create and transmit vast spiritualized offerings into the invisible worlds. The smoke of sacred aromatic mixtures carries our mind-generated offerings to enlightened beings, local deities, land guardians—and all beings in creation. The effects are:

This process clears away obstacles in general, improving health, success, happiness and spiritual development.
Healing the environment from all kinds of disturbances and negative energies.
Connecting with local non-human entities, creating stability and security.
Pacifying any home or business, creative a positive flow of energy.
Gathering vast positive karma is gathered and old karmic debts are repaid.

2. ENRICHING — Hooking wealth

Increasing the forces that bring wealth and prosperity.

3: ENERGIZING — Windhorse

Windhorse is an important part of Tibetan shamanic land healing. Lungta is about the vibrancy and life force that is associated with our health, charisma, careers, relationships, spiritual life and so on.
