Understanding Charity & Healing
There is No Power and No Strength Accept With the Creator

In The Creator of All Things Name We Ask Support in Every Endeavor and Effort!

Historically, the very act of talking about receiving charity, outside a framework of teaching, would decreases the spiritual power and blessings the charity brings. Both for the person giving and for the person receiving the charity. It is said that charity is better given when the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. That charity is better offered in secret. Seeking out those who are not asking for charity is preferred over those who are asking. Healers who are asking for upfront payment, are little more than beggars. Healing and Religion are not businesses. If they are focused on money, they are on the wrong way. It is that simple.

Money, historically, was offered to healers out of respect, not by demand. It was a good and honorable charity bringing with it an amount of protection and healing in and of itself. It is predominately for the protection and benefit of the giver. An understanding that has almost completely vanished from today's money driven corporate world. Inconspicuously, money, if that was what was given, was concealed in an envelope or small gift box and presented to the healer after the act of treatment - with full manners and respect and with an intention to provide a charitable reward, not payment. The healer as with the holy (whole) person, normally one in the same, understands where his sustenance comes from and has no need to chase after it. When one becomes truly holy, sustenance chases after you.

Healers, as with holy persons, live simple lives. The money that comes to them is for the benefit of mankind, not to enrich themselves. In this context, when given to the right person, charity heals mankind and heals the individual offering it. With correct charitable understanding giving the best you can give is ultimately for your own benefit and the benefit of society.

This action of giving charity actually boosts or empowers the overall effectiveness of the treatment. The treatment is a mechanism for the healing not the cause. Intention, respect, good manners and charity alters healing energy. The rewards from money well spent by someone spiritually higher than yourself, falls back on you. The closer your contribution is to something of real substance, such as gold, silver, or even a sheep, the more spiritual weight and protection that contribution of charity
