Delfina’s is an eighteen year old normal teenager, but the only thing that differs her from rest of the people is, when she cries she cries blood tear. Her story came in Discovery Channel, Body Bizarre, as an effort to understand the medical anomalies some people face like her. There are so many people, who have such medical problems in their life. All of them have different and compelling story to tell but my attention was caught by Delfina’s case, she not only cries blood, but, also sweats but blood also gushes out from her nose and ear when she is tensed even slightly. It started when she was fifteen years old and now she is only eighteen. The TV channel team followed her everywhere to cover her story not only in her house but also when she went to see doctors.
Her visit to many doctors did not offer any clue to the problem she was going through. Doctors could not find anything wrong inside her body, besides there was no such major physical complications she was facing, even after she bled from all parts of her body. Yes, due to excessive bleeding, she had lost her hairs, like those who goes through chemotherapy. During one of such visit in a clinic when doctor could not find any problem in her system, she was referred to psychotherapy department. This suggestion was something that made her bleed instantly from nose and ear just as she stepped outside from the doctors room. It panicked attending doctors who had seen her first time and trying to understand what is causing her bleed like that, but to Delfina it was kind of usual problem.
This cluelessness of her mysterious disease reminded me of one story, which I have read on the study of the Edgar Cayce. This story talks about concept of karma rebounds. Cayce was a divine healer, with his super sensory vision under the spell of hypnosis, he could help sort out many medical mysteries like Delfina, of course in his time. He was consulted of many such medical mysteries during his lifetime and he used to offer help and also tell them, why they were suffering from such troubles in their life.
Here is one story of a young woman, who was suffering from obesity and at one point it became too miserable. Once she visited Cayce to know about her condition. His finding : two births ago, you were a famous athlete in Rome and used to make fun of those who could not run as fast as you could because of obesity. Lest, you should hurt people again in this manner, you yourself are so fat now. This story is told n the book of learn to live - 2.
That karma rebounds concept sounds really believing at first sight, and being born as a hindu, I am so tempted to believe this concept until I look into my own life and trying to rubbish the people who believed that my life was part of curse, but let me tell you another story before I tell you mine, which I find in the book, think and grow rich by Napoleon Hill.
The writer talks about his son, who was born as deaf and mute, who not only did not have physical ear, but when doctor operated him there was no sign of hearing in his lifetime. But the writer was in denial to accept the truth, so he was determined that his son will hear and speak. He asked this question to himself how ? and he, only he could have found the answer. Although, he was clueless about it, he was convinced that he will find it. His single minded determination came from Emerson saying, “The whole course of things goes in teach us faith, we need only obey. There is guidance for each of us and by lowly listening, we shall hear the right words.” For him ‘desire’ was the right word, he desired his son would not be deaf and mute.
When his son was just an infant, he would fill his minds with a burning desire to hear and speak. At one point in the book, he admitted that he infused a deceit into the mind of his son and he believed him. After about twenty years his son was able to hear with the help of an electronic hearing machine and talk just like a normal person.
“The little ‘white lies’, I planted in his mind when he was child leading him to believe his affliction would become a great assets on which he could capitalized, have been justified.”
He further writes down that in his book that, when Blair was an adult, Dr. Irving Voorhees a noted specialist on such cases examined him thoroughly. The doctor was surprised, when he learned how well Blair could hear and speak, and said his examination indicated that theoretically the boy should not be able to hear at all.
It was his statement that, if you desire, you can outwit even mother nature.
I started writing my blog to know me better, but, more than that to know my surrounding and I started digging more about things that is so perplexing truth that nagged me for a long time. Because there were something, in the notion, I am not convinced. The concept I grew up hearing it, I simply refused to believe, what I have been infused to believe. we were told that we landed up in Bal Mandir because of our past deeds and bad work in our past life. The story of Blair by his father is a prove that, if injected properly how it works so perfectly, I would like to quote him again, “it is my duty and privilege to say, I believe and not without reason, that nothing is impossible to the person who backs desire with enduring faith.”
The only difference between this father and the people who injected so much negativity in our young subconscious mind of fully able body, during my childhood in Bal Mandir is; he was sure of what he was doing and wanted a sure fire result of it. But majority of those didis and housemothers and others, who always passed nasty and negative comments to us, were so ignorant of its lasting impact of it in the mind of a child's subconscious mind and later in life.
Don't get me wrong, I have a huge respect for Edgar Cayce and his divine works. But after reading the book, think and grow rich which has so much similarity of my own thinking and condition I have found myself, I am forced to ask this question, to my readers is the concept of karma is true or it is just a wrong diagnosis of a situation ? What is more interesting is, that these two good men, both are Americans and were in the good work at the same time. Cayce died around 1953 while Hill died in 1970.
