India and Pakistan

On my return to Delhi I stayed in a lovely guest house that just happened to be run by a Reiki Master!  Her husband is also a healer and the atmosphere in their house was lovely!  I was able to leave the peace flame in their meditation room to be passed on to others. It is a very important time for us all to be focusing on world peace. Especially just now in India.

 We don't hear much about it in the UK, but in India the papers were all full of India & Pakistan gearing up for war. The morning I left Delhi for Dharamsala the headlines read: "Army fully prepared for war" and had rather disturbing passages like "If nuclear weapons are used against India the perpetrators shall be punished so severely that their continuation in any sort of fray will be doubtful."

I did wonder for a moment if it was wise to continue, as I would be between Delhi (first target), the mountains and the border areas - no where to go to if war did break out. However it still felt like the right thing for me to do, so I continued. Security was VERY tight all over India. I even had a police check in my hotel. This might normally have been a bit intimidating, but as I had just been meditating and practicing my self-Reiki, I was well chilled out! I was amused to learn later that what had seemed like a heated discussion between the hotel owner and policeman as they looked at me and my passport, was because the policeman was suspicious of the passport as he thought I looked younger than my date of birth suggested. That's what Reiki and meditation do for you!

Most of my internal focus on the trip was world peace. That is all we can do really - focus on peace within ourselves, and extend that out into the world. Never underestimate what a positive effect one individual can have!
