Spiritual Healing ~ the most holistic form of healing, it does no harm and heals all aspects of the "dis-ease". Various forms of spiritual healing include "hands-on" healing (reiki, pranic, joh rei,) and distance healing (as aforementioned, and also radionics). Spiritual healing does not refer to any religion but to the idea that no physical media are employed. Homeopathics are considered "spiritual" because no physical material remains in the remedy.

Equal to GREAT MINDS, ONE FOR ALL has the most power and depth for me. I never tire of this image and continue to read it differently in different circumstances.

When the ONE FOR ALL image was moved from the breast to the belly of the maternal t-shirt, the resonance deepened. I particularly like this image in black on a man’s white t-shirt: It can make a thug feel like a knight in shining armor.

As graffiti, placement on a church, a political office or city hall, a bank ~ each merges with the site to create another meaning. Re-reading each site/image combination in light of the peace symbol digs ONE FOR ALL into even deeper layers. Juxtaposing this image with bus bench advertising is always valuable. It is amusing to place the ONE FOR ALL image on porn newspaper dispensers.

The Equal Rights Movement (the new Civil Rights Movement) has embraced ONE FOR ALL. You see t-shirts, buttons, and stickers at every rally.

The nobility of the Three Musketeers and the truth of the Taoist concept of universal force combine to illuminate the idea that each and every person is a bodhisattva in the world. Some bodhisattvas have a bottle of medicine in one hand, others have a can of spray paint. Or a pocket full of stickers.

Smudge/House Cleaning ~ the tradition of smudging goes back to pre-history, before native americans were in america... it exists in most earth cultures to this day. Just as fire and smoke will run wild animals away, the use of smoke and fire has always been used to run wild "energy" away. Sage only clears a certain "band" of vibration, the same with sweet grass. Other natural incenses are also useful -- a variety of incenses should be kept on hand for a good house cleansing. Intention and visualization augments the cleansing. A real house cleansing includes chanting and the ringing of bells and gongs with smudging to expand the vibrational "band" that is cleared. The spraying of certain formulas of aromatic waters and the use of blessthebody.com Aura Spritz when house cleansing is also important. Several blessthebody.com spiritual remedies are essential for house cleansing. This should be done on (or before) certain astrological phenomenon as a general routine and when needed for heavy or unwanted energy. If you hold healing, meditation, or other kinds of spiritual sessions in your home, you should cleanse very regularly -- even lightly before and after each session.
