Do you feel tired and depressed? Are you feeling worn out with no will to go on? Do you suffer from energy vampires; people taking your energy? Do you wake up frequently in the night, feeling tired in the morning? If any of these things apply to you, you may be suffering from loss of Lha energy.
There is a unique energy associated with the lunar cycle. This energy is called Lha and is the pure energy of the five elements. Lha is also considered the vital life essence.
Lha is the essential energy protective of life. When Lha is in full capacity it gives physical strength, stamina, stability, mental clarity and happiness. As well Lha provides a luminous complexion and harmony within the body.
The phases of the moon affect the Lha energy. Lha moves around the physical body depending on and following the cycle of the moon.
Loss of Lha can occur because of trauma, illness, prolonged physical or mental pain or abuse. If a physical injury occurs in a place on the body where the Lha is currently residing, it is more likely to cause loss of Lha.
When someone dies, part of Lha will remain with the body after consciousness has left. In some cases, if someone is very attached to a home where they lived some Lha may remain. The remaining Lha can disturb those living in the house. Lha can also remain in possessions of people who have died if they were very attached to them. Items such as jewelry, furniture or teacups can retain peoples’ Lha.
When Lha is fully present and in balance we feel strength, flow, energy, ease of movement and openness. The essence of earth Lha is a sense of strength, stability and connectedness. The essence of water Lha is a sense of flow, movement, ease and comfort. The essence of fire is a sense of energy and warmth. The essence of wind is movement, openness and lightness. The essence of space is complete openness, spaciousness and acceptance.
If you feel a loss of groundedness, it could be lost earth essence. A loss of comfort and ease could be loss of water essence. A lack of energy or will could be a loss of fire essence and loss of ability for movement, or sense of stuckness could be loss of wind essence. Feeling closed, dark and tight could be a loss of space essence.
If you feel a lack of one or more of these characteristics, it may be lost Lha of a particular element or elements.
If you think you have lost Lha there are several things you can do.
A simple contemplation meditation may be all you need. It is called Hooking Back the Lha.
Start by thinking about the strength and stability of earth. Contemplate how earth holds you, its solidness under you. Imagine this energy moving into you from the earth. Take a moment to try and feel that.
Think about the flow, ease and comfort of water. Water always finds a way to flow. If blocked, water goes around or over. Water just follows its’ path, wherever that may be, using gravity. Sense that kind of energy and imagine that energy flowing into you. Take a moment to try and feel that energy.
Contemplate the energy, brightness and warmth of fire. Feel how fire can warm your body, relaxing but energizing too. Imagine that kind of energy moving into you.
Contemplate the openness and lightness of wind. Feel its breeze on you. Imagine wind giving you the energy to move. Wind gives creativity, movement, a sense of freedom.
Think about the energy of space. It is always open and accepting. Imagine the open spacious quality filling you.
Take your time with each of these contemplations.
Just thinking about these qualities will hook their energy back to you. If there is a particular energy you feel lacking, spend more time cultivating that energy.
Hooking back the Lha ritual can be done by a qualified Lama. This ritual will bring back any Lha lost due to trauma, illness or injury. You can contact me here to have this arranged.
You can also do the meditation which Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche called Soul Retrieval. The course and meditation instruction are free here.
In order to stop the loss of Lha one puts either red string or a ring on each ring finger and on the second last toes of each foot.
There are energy meridians connected with these digits and Lha energy can flow out through them. The energy loss will be slowed by the presence of rings.
You can also protect Lha with spiritual practices such as 1000 malas of Medicine Buddha, Green Tara or Avalokitesvhara mantras.
You can also keep on your person a piece of turquoise which is said to help one maintain their Lha. This is particularly helpful with energy vampires.
Lastly, you can get a Lha massage. A full massage needs to be done in-person by someone qualified. You can also do the Lha massage on yourself after proper instruction.
