DHARMA
Soul Path Readings is a term created by reality. It is not the first
time that I have “done something” and then was faced with the challenge
what to call it. Years ago, for example, after having practiced energetic
healing for some time (mostly without charging because: what would I have
charged for if I didn’t know what to call it?), I finally met someone teaching
various forms of it. I explained to him what I had been practicing and
he invited me to teach alongside with him
Something
similar was happening about this term. I wanted neither to associate myself
with the overworked Tibetan Buddhist “market”, nor did I feel up to such
a big word as Dharma. But, several years ago, Yuan Miao, a true lineage
carrier of Guanyin, turned to Vajra Ma and me and asked us: “May I name
you?”
She
gave Vajra Ma the name Ne Zhen Zhou Ma and named me Duo Dan.
When
we asked what these names mean, she explained: “Ne Zhen Zhou Ma means ‘Female
Immortal of the Sun’ and Duo Dan means ‘Diamond Guardian of the
Dharma’”
Vajra
Ma exclaimed, "that's exactly what he does: he protects the truth!"
So,
there I had it. In less than a minute’s time I had been handed – or better
shouldered with – a mandate that often feels quite intimidating. Thus it
is with full awareness of its momentous implications that I use the word
Dharma.
The
expression “Soul Path” may be somewhat redundant since Dharma already addresses
much of a person’s soul path. But I found the connotation of an essential
through line as expressed in the word Path helpful. Isn’t it the being
out of sync with such a through line that eats away at our years, loves,
confidence, and life energy? Colloquially speaking, we are exhausting ourselves
“barking up the wrong tree”. We are spinning our wheels. We have successes
that feel like let-downs.
Then
there are cases when we are desperately clinging to the wrong story. We
feel we were not given the instruction manual for life, while overlooking
the fact that we are trying to live someone else’s or one that’s long past.
| _The
DISCOMFORT of having arrived_ |
One’s
Dharma brings with itself an implicit discomfort. The big excuse of the
seeker must fall away when one is in the right place at the right time
with the right people. Some times we abuse the 'journey' as a means to
stay disempowered, to avoid responsibility. The Dharma digs one’s nose
right into such complacent dynamics and alibi spirituality. A Soul Path
Reading can open the view to one's Dharma, illuminate the path, but it
cannot substitute for taking the necessary steps.
I
work directly with the person or through a mediator. Direct work can be
person-to-person (“in the flesh”) or by telephone. A mediator preferably
is a third person by telephone but can be in person as well; also possible
is an object as access point (psychometry). Any mediated work requires
the person’s permission.
The
first session (up to two hours) is $ 125.-.
The
second session is $ 165.-
Any
subsequent session is $ 200.-
Special
long-term, salaried and pre-paid advisory contracts are possible.
The
challenge is to embrace the consequences of your power and to live it.
