Chapter Nine: More Classes

The second Basic EDINA class was hosted by my good friend, the psychologist, Dr. Cathy Chapman, on a Sunday in her home in September of 2007. This was her idea, bless her, to invite her people and host it in her home. There were about eleven people there, I think. All of them were Cathy's contacts, some of whom I also knew for one reason or another. As with the first class, all were women except for one lone male. I did not know what this meant, but it was very interesting to me.

As I was to soon learn in greater detail, every class has a distinct feel to it. No two classes are ever the same, due to the energies brought in by the individuals. I had known this when I taught art in high school, when I was in my early twenties, and I learned it all over again, beginning with Cathy's class. There were some very interesting people there, most of them were already doing some kind of healing work professionally. One was a musician, Jim Commander, interested in the Fibonacci sequence. He had actually cut a CD for meditation using that scale, which is different than the scale most music is composed upon in Western culturethese days, and the specific vibrations of which many believe have special healing qualities. We talk more about this in the advanced EDINA Class, Module One. This is the musical scale used by the ancients, until a few hundred years ago. Gregorian chants use the Fibonacci scale. Confucious said that if you change the music of a culture, you change the culture. I believe this to be absolutely true and a deep, profound piece of information. Everything that is, is made of a vibration. Musical tones are also vibrations. Every vibration we hear from car alarms to rap music to jackhammers and from the cooing of doves to the sighs of our lover and Bhangra music affect us, and affect us deeply. Even those vibrations we do not hear affect us, including the thoughts of others.

And so, the second Basic EDINA class went very smoothly, and everyone seemed to understand what I was talking about. This was probably due to most of them being energy workers already, doing various forms of energy medicine from acupuncture to BodyTalk, Reiki, Sat Nam Rasayan, Touch for Health, Theta Healing, and so on. A few of them did the energy work on the side for friends and family, but many of them were full-time practitioners.

There were once again people from several different towns in Texas in attendance, as with the first class. I realized with surprise and awe that the Ankenash were spreading their roots widely over the state as they built the morphogenic field of EDINA, like a plant sending out its roots. At this point they were telling me over and over to protect this little seedling, so that it could grow into the mighty tree that would heal, nourish and sustain millions of people one day. They told me that once I had one hundred people initiated they would turn up the volume on the energy available to everyone. And this did later happen; we all felt it.

At this point in time, it was my understanding that EDINA would be solely used as an overlay to other forms of healing work, with the Ankenash working in dimensions 4-12 while we did our other healilng modalities, in the three dimensions, like Reiki or BodyTalk or Healing Touch or whatever we chose. I did not know yet that there was to be more to EDINA than that!

I was deeply grateful to have the opportunity to work with such an experienced group of healers that day at Dr. Chapman's. It was a rare thing for her to have a class in her home, and I was honored that she did so for EDINA. She has been a tremendous help and support for me as I have brought in this form of energy medicine from the Sirians.
