Pain has a purpose

[1]

Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev [1]

Using one’s energies to heal another person is a juvenile act. In the process of healing, they may cause great distress and damage to their own life, as well as to the other person. Whatever is happening to someone’s body is not accidental; it is happening through a certain process of cause and effect.
So, attempting any kind of pranic healing is very childish because there is a deeper process to whatever is happening to a human being.

With every type of healing that anyone does, no matter what they may claim, all they do is remove the effect, not the cause.
Right now the effect may be such that it is painful, but if I remove the pain, the cause is still there, and it will take effect in another way. The pain that you were experiencing was an indicator of a deeper problem. If I remove the pain, it means you did not, and will not, get to the root of it, so it will eventually have a deeper effect on you. Nature will make sure that there’s a deeper impact in your life so that you take notice of the root cause.
Whatever pain and suffering that you are going through are not punishments because of your karma. This is the way of nature indicating to you that there is a problem, otherwise you won’t know what’s happening with you.
It is very difficult to make a person who is in pain understand this, but in a certain way, it is a boon that pain is surfacing.
Once it has surfaced, a way can be found to solve the problem. If pain had not surfaced, the problem would have continued for a long time. Pain makes you mature and wise.
Normally, your misplaced emotion is such: pain has come, so let’s first remove it. I am not wishing that people go through pain.
Of course, we have to find relief, but it is also an opportunity for a person to look deeper and truly attend to the basics of his life. If you take that opportunity away from a person you are not doing anything good to him.
Also, it is best to teach a person the methods with which s/he can work herself/himself out rather than trying to work it out for him/her.
When people heal themselves, it has a different impact on their life. If somebody else heals them, people live an even more foolish life than earlier.
