Sankalpa for the deceased?

[Guest guest]

In Re: the Saturday Prayer Club Sankalpa.

 

When listing recipients of prayers, I wish the

deceased people were indicated by listing them as :

"the soul of John Jones, recently deceased." I know

that offerings to ancestors and deceased people are

supposed to end with "Swadha," while living beings and

Devas are made offerings with "Swaha."

 

I think deceased people require blessings and guidance

towards the Light, rather than physical healing.

 

Also, many people request "healings" for recipients

who obviously don't know they are being worked on.

I'd like to add "if they accept this" to modify the

sankalpa.

12.0pt;font-family:"Maiandra GD"">In regards to this situation, I frequently

ask for healing for specific individuals, including myself.  I do it because I

know people desire physical healing… and because they are having health

issues.  But in the event that someone has no desire to be healed, I don’t

think God would heal that person, simply because we requested it for them.

prayer for a person, as we all submit, can do any harm.  What a loving God we

have!
