Shakuntala Modi - Remarkable Healings: A Psychiatrist Discovers Unsuspected Roots of Mental and Physical Illness

If we can imagine God as one body, then we are like different cells and parts of that body of God. When any part of that body hurts, the whole body hurts. Similarly, when we hurt any other person, we hurt ourselves as well. We must treat each other with love and care in order to preserve the whole. Love is the most powerful source in the universe. When we give love we also receive it and as it moves back and forth, it grows and provides the healing for everybody involved. Only love can heal, and it is the only thing which really matters.

I dedicate this book first to my brother, Jawaharlal Chaudhari, whose sacrifice made it possible for me to be a doctor. We both wanted to become doctors. Due to financial problems, when he was told that only one of us could go to medical college, he selflessly stepped aside so that 1 could be a doctor. I am eternally grateful to him because without his love, support, and sacrifice I would not be a doctor today writing this book.

Also to my uncle, Bansilal Chaudhari, who provided financial support and encouraged me to become a doctor during a time when none of the girls in our family went to college.

Next, to my patients, through whom I was privileged to receive this knowledge. Their trust and perseverance and their willingness to explore and share the joy are greatly appreciated.

To all the angels, heavenly guides, and all the other Light beings for their never-ending attendance, assistance, protection, education, and enthusiastic participation.

Ultimately, I humbly dedicate this book to God, the giver of the Light and the knowledge, for the privilege of receiving and participating in the discovery of this knowledge.

In recognizing those who have been of great assistance to me in preparing for this book, I must begin with all my patients who have helped me in the quest for this knowledge. Without them there would be no subject matter about which to write.

My sincere thanks to my typists, Charlotte Hawk and Dorothy Kovacik, for their hours and hours of patient, tedious typing and retyping of several revisions.

I also thank my local editors, Milton Ronsheim and Jane Dulaney, for their careful reading, corrections, and suggestions.

I am grateful to everyone at Hampton Roads Publishing Company for editing, designing, producing, and promoting this book.

Ultimately, I must acknowledge God, the heavenly angels, guides, and all the other Light beings for their protection, guidance, and education and their gift of this book.

Looking for the Key

I looked within myself to find the answers

Because I knew although I can't say how,

That deep inside me the truth awaited me

So, fearlessly, I opened the door to eternity,

And walked in.

Jane

Plagued by a myriad of acute and chronic ailments, I marched myself faithfully to the doctors for years. Despite the fact that they were, for the most part, good and caring doctors, my ailments persisted; and all I was able to do was to use the treatment provided by the doctors, which worked as a Band-Aid, and go on.

It was quite by accident, or so I thought, that I stumbled on spirit releasement and past life regression therapy. I felt a strong need, a drive, to find someone who could do this process for me. You've heard the expression, This is the first day of the rest of your life. This saying took on a new dimension the day I met Dr. Modi.

I have always had a sixth sense about people. Nervous, excited, and emotional (I came to understand this emotional turmoil later), I entered Dr. Modi's office for the first time. She looked up from her desk, took one look at me, and asked, very solicitously, Are you all right? I thought my front was pretty good; I have always been good at hiding. But she saw clear through my assurances. From that moment, I knew I had come to the right person. Little did I know then just what a life-altering adventure I had begun and what a keenly perceptive, knowledgeable guide I had in Dr. Modi.

Dr. Modi led me gently through the processes of spirit releasement, explaining the concepts thoroughly beforehand. How reassuring it was to learn that so many of the feelings, problems, thoughts, and illnesses I had harbored were not mine alone. How exciting it was when, one by one, we released these unhappy souls and they happily left and took their problems with them.

Sickly as I had always been, I never felt I was a hypochondriac. Consequently, I never understood why it seemed I could never get well and stay well. Suddenly my problems began to leave with their proper owners. It seemed that all my acute presenting symptoms were spirit-owned, and as the entities left, so did the symptoms. And being a caring, nurturing, empathetic person, I was burdened with many of these entities.

When we moved into past life therapy, I began to find the clues to lifelong dreams as well as the answers to lifelong puzzles. I found places I have seen in dreams all my life. I found reasons for my fears and aversions, for recurring nightmares, and for certain of my personality characteristics and life patterns. I found not only the answers to many unanswered questions and healing for certain illnesses, but also the resolve and the courage to face some difficult changes I would never otherwise have been strong enough to make.

I also saw Satan and his demons firsthand! I watched as they pulled and tugged and manipulated my soul by holding soul parts and by using devices and other obstacles to interfere with my communication with God and cause me emotional, physical, and relationship problems.

I learned how easy it is for us to lose pieces of our souls, innocently enough, but lose them nevertheless in moments of weakness caused by strong emotions: fear, anger, grief, and even joy. Even though musicians toss out the idea of lovers sharing their souls, I found out how dangerous that notion can be, and that many of my problems were not really mine, but of those people whose soul parts I was harboring. When we lose those soul parts, we lay ourselves open, as darkness quickly takes over the empty spaces left by the lost soul parts.

I found angels. Do you know we have angels? And they are there at our bidding. Angels can do anything, as they are beings of the Light, untainted by mortal living. All we have to do is basically what our mothers taught us: say Please and Thank you and they will do anything for us.

I found heaven and met Jesus and God firsthand. What an unspeakable joy it is to know, really know, that God is always there, always loving, always concerned, and always on our side no matter what we do. God does not interfere with our free will but will help us if we ask. How reassuring it is to know that we are always connected to God through a silver cord that comes from God to our souls. That intangible, immortal essence that empowers and drives usis our piece of the Divine. From God we came, and to God one day we all will return.
