The Modern Order of Essenes: Muscle Testing
This is the last of the five instructional papers for the Apprentice grade of the Essenes, covering muscle testing, aka applied kinesiology. This is a subtle and flexible method of divination that's gotten quite a bit of attention in alternative health care circles. It's not required that you practice it, but you should experiment with it as part of your training in the MOE tradition. Please note: next week I will be giving instructions for receiving the first, Apprentice level of Essene attunement, which will be done (as it often was in John Gilbert's time) as a distance attunement. If you want to receive this, you'll need to block out around an hour of time on Saturday, January 14. I will be doing my end of the attunement at noon, 6 pm, and midnight Eastern time. You will need to be prepared to receive it at one of these times, corrected for your own time zone. You only have to set aside one of the times just listed.
If you intend to receive attunement at this time, you will need to do the following things:
1. Make sure you are familiar with the whole set of Essene techniques that have been covered so far -- the Blessing Walk, the Essene healing breath (or some other form of meditation), Essene palm healing, Essene foot reflexology, and muscle testing.
2. Perform the palm charging exercise every day during the seven days leading up to the attunement, including the day of the attunement.
3. Perform all the other practices you have been taught at least once, and preferably more than once, during that same seven-day period.
4. Perform your end of the attunement ceremony at one of the times listed above.
If you're already booked on Saturday, you're not completely out of luck; I will arrange to do another attunement working a few weeks further on. If you're planning on coming to the Ecosophia potluck in Providence, RI on June 24 this year, I will be available to do attunements in person that weekend as well. If you can manage to get the attunement this time around, however, that will allow you to proceed with the lessons as quickly as possible.
Essene Kinesiology: Overview and Theory
One important Essene healing technique is applied kinesiology, which is also called muscle testing. It is a way of communicating with your subconscious, in order to access the deeper knowledge the subconscious has available. What comes through is usually a surprise to us, but it normally turns out to be true.
Muscle testing works because the physical body and the subconscious are very closely attuned—more closely than either one is to the conscious mind. When an intention of the conscious mind is in harmony with what the subconscious knows to be true, the body’s muscles are stronger than when the conscious intention conflicts with the knowledge of the unconscious. Testing the strength of a chosen muscle while holding an intention in mind gives the subconscious a way to pass on its knowledge to the conscious mind.
Essene kinesiology or Essene muscle testing can be used to determine if any item is helpful or not for the person being tested. Individuals may test themselves, you may help them test themselves, or you may test them yourself.
There are five muscle testing techniques which Essenes use for this purpose. These techniques are known as:
1. Looped fingers technique
2. Rubbing fingers technique
3. Hand clasp technique
4. Stiff arm technique
5. Flexed thigh technique
Individuals may use the looped fingers, rubbing fingers, hand clasp, and flexed thigh techniques by themselves. A second party is usually required to use the stiff arm technique.
All five of these techniques work by allowing the conscious mind to become so interested in what you’re doing that you allow your subconscious to take control of a specific muscle in your fingers, hands, arm, or leg—whichever is being used. We reorient the conscious mind by concentrating on our question and not the answer to the question.
We ask simple yes-no questions. We concentrate on the question while we apply the technique. Then we observe the answer our subconscious mind is giving us. The more we keep our our thoughts and ideas out of the process, the more reliable the answer to our question will be.
Looped Fingers Technique
The Modern Essene Fellowship recommends you learn this technique first whether you plan to use it or not. The teaching for this technique applies to all of the other Essene kinesiology techniques to be discussed. If you’re not going to use this technique, please read through it anyway as everything discussed also applies to the other techniques.
This technique may be used by the individual or healer. We’ll explain how you may use this technique for yourself or another person. You may then teach another person how to use the same technique. First become centered. Close your eyes and become very calm. Tune into the Divine and commune with the Divine. This is not something to skim over lightly; take your time in this preparation. Your results will be much better if you do.
Secondly, set your intention for this kinesiology session. Let the Divine, your own True Self, your conscious and subconscious minds know exactly why you are going to use the Looped Finger technique. Commune with the Divine until you know that every part of your being is tuned into the Divine and ready to proceed.
Make a circular loop of your left index finger and thumb. (Note: Any other finger may be used and, if necessary, the pad of the palm of your left hand may be used in place of the thumb.) Place the index finger and thumb of your right hand into this circle making intertwining circles. Each circle created by a thumb and finger is within the other.
The process now is to resist from allowing the fingers to easily break these intertwined circles. At the same time, try to pull them apart with your normal strength. Do not forcibly hold your fingers together, and do not forcible try to break them apart. This is not a test of strength. What it is in reality is a communication system between your conscious mind and your subconscious . Hopefully while you’re doing this testing your subconscious is in communion with your own True Self or the Divine. If it is, your results will always be correct.
Resist breaking these intertwined fingers apart. If the finger and thumb of the left hand remain together and the links stay unbroken, the muscles are strong and the answer is “Yes.” If the fingers of the right hand pop easily through the join between the left finger and thumb, allowing the hands to break apart, the muscles are weak and the answer is “No.”
It can help in this situation to tell yourself, silently or aloud, that “Yes” means the circles will not break apart, and “No” means they will. Sometimes our subconscious mind needs a little direction. Don’t be afraid to tell your subconscious how the conscious mind will interpret its signals.
Once you know everybody’s on the same page (conscious mind, subconscious, and True Self), use the technique to check to see if some foods, supplements, drinks, or remedies are good for you or not. You may be surprised and you may not agree with some of the results. Don’t become alarmed, you’re in the learning stage right now. Keep practicing.
Later you may discover you got a few false positives (system says “yes” but later says “no”) or false negatives (system says “no” but you find out later is should have been “yes”). This happens in the beginning. So don’t be alarmed if everything isn’t perfect from the start. Keep practicing.
Within a few days, you’ll have the system down pat and it will always work for you. Here’s the process:
1. Set your intention for what you want to test
2. Prepare your intertwined fingers
3. Resist
4. Attempt to pull your fingers apart
5. Record the result
Rubbing Fingers Technique
The Rubbing Fingers technique can be used anyplace where you really don’t want people to know what you’re doing. Strictly speaking, it’s not muscle testing, but it uses a related method to allow the subconscious to communicate with the conscious mind. It’s very effective and the answers one receives are just as valid as for a muscle-testing method. It’s an unobtrusive, non-invasive, easy to use and easy to hide technique.
This technique may be used by the individual or healer. First become centered. Close your eyes and become very calm. Tune into the Divine and commune with the Divine.
Secondly, set your intention for this kinesiology session. Let the Divine, your own True Self, your conscious mind and your subconscious know exactly why you are going to use the Rubbing Finger technique. Commune with the Divine until you know that every part of your being is tuned into the Divine and ready to proceed,
Hold the pads of your thumb and first finger lightly together. To better understand this instruction, pick up a piece of paper between your thumb and first finger. Pull out the paper and your thumb and forefinger are in the proper position. You may use your right hand, left hand or both.
The process is to concentrate on your yes-no question and rub your thumb and first finger together. If in rubbing your thumb and forefinger together the two slide smoothly over each other, the answer is “yes.” If they stick together, the answer is “no.” If your conscious mind is occupied with your question, your subconscious is in control of what you experience as you rub your thumb and first finger together. Hopefully while you’re doing this testing your subconscious mind is in communion with your own True Self or the Divine. If it is, your results will always be correct.
Practice this technique with questions you know are “yes” or “no.” If you obtain the same result with “yes” or “no” questions, keep experimenting a few minutes a day for several days after your daily meditation and devotions. Once your subconscious mind and True Self realize you’re serious about using this technique, you’ll soon have a definite pattern of smooth sliding for “yes” and sticking together for “no.”
Once you know your conscious mind, your subconscious, and your True Self are all on the same page, use the technique to check to see if some foods, supplements, drinks, or remedies are good for you or not. You may be surprised and you may not agree with some of the results. Don’t become alarmed, you’re in the learning stage right now. Keep practicing.
Later you may discover you got a few false positives (system says “yes” but later says “no”) or false negatives (system says “no” but you find out later is should have been “yes”). This happens in the beginning. So don’t be alarmed if everything isn’t perfect from the start. Keep practicing.
Within a few days, you’ll have the system down pat and it will always work for you. Here’s the process:
1. Set your intention for what you want to test
2. Bring your thumb and forefinger lightly together
3. Concentrate on your question (not the answer)
4. Rub gently
5. Record the result
Clasped Hand Technique
The Clasped Hand technique as used by the Modern Essene Fellowship is very similar to the Looped Finger technique. The teaching materials for the Looped Finger technique should be read and practiced first, as the same procedure applies to the Clasped Hand technique.
The Clasped Hand technique is very similar to the Looped Finger technique. The procedure is to clasp your hands together one of three different ways. Choose the method most comfortable for you:
1. Intertwine your fingers at their base so the tips of the fingers on one hand touch the knuckles of the other hand
2. Grab one hand with the other and clasp your palms together
3. Hook the fingers of one hand into the cupped fingers of the other.
Method 1: Intertwining your hands is the way children intertwine their hands for saying grace. You don’t want to grasp so tightly you cut off the circulation of blood in your fingers. You also don’t want to grasp so lightly you can’t resist the effort to break the grasp apart.
Method 2: Grabbing one hand with the other is similar to shaking hands with yourself. Just close the fingers of each hand over the back of he other. Hold, and resist your own efforts to separate your hands.
Method 3: Lift your elbows while grabbing the wrist of each hand with the other hand. Now slide each hand down until you hook all four fingers of each hand together with the four fingers of the other. Place the thumb of each hand on the knuckles of the other. Hold, and resist your own efforts to separate your hands.
The object in all three cases, is to resist breaking the grip apart while attempting to break it at the same time. As with Finger Loops this is not a test of strength. It is a communication system so your subconscious mind can communicate with your conscious mind. If you have any questions about this, please review the Looped Fingers technique.
With a few days of practice, you’ll have the system down pat and it will always work for you. Here’s the process:
1. Set your intention for what you want to test
2. Prepare your clasped hands
3. Resist
4. Attempt to pull your hands apart
5. Record the result
Stiff Arm Technique
The Stiff Arm technique of Essene kinesiology is most commonly used by an Essene healer on another person. The technique is used with people who are not confident in their own ability to perform either the Clasped Hands or Looped Finger technique for themselves. As with the other techniques, another body part that can be held rigid may be used.
The Stiff Arm technique requires one person who is the subject being tested and the other who performs the testing technique. You should always be the person performing the testing technique, unless you are intentionally being the subject.
Explain the process to the client. When the answer to a statement is “yes” they will remain strong and their arm will remain very rigid. But, when the answer to a statement is “no” their strength will diminish and their arm can easily be pushed down.
Instruct the subject being tested to hold either his or her right or left arm straight out to the side and hold it there. Tell them their name is exactly what you know it to be. Then say the word “resist” to them. Push down lightly on their outstretched arm. Tell them to relax. The strength of their arm tells you how they will react to a “yes” or truthful answer.
Instruct the subject being tested to hold either his or her right or left arm straight out to the side and hold it there. Tell them their name is some name (of the opposite gender is best) you know to be false. Then say the word “resist” to them. Push down lightly on their outstretched arm. The lack of strength in their arm tells you how they will react to a “no” or false answer.
In the event you did not see much of a difference between the “true” and “false” test results, the reason is either you or your subject does not understand the instructions at some level. This could be either the conscious or subconscious level or both. Our suggestion is to try again and then one more time with the same subject. If after three attempts things are still the same, you are best advised to try another approach.
Some people will not allow their subconscious minds to communicate through this method. Don’t force the issue. Use another technique like a pendulum. Alternatively, you can test for another person using either the Looped Finger or Clasped Hand technique yourself. This takes some practice, but within a few days, you’ll have the system down pat and it will always work for you. Here’s the process:
1. Set your intention for what you want to test on behalf of another
2. Prepare your intertwined fingers or clasped hands
3. Resist
4. Attempt to pull your fingers or hands apart
5. Record the result
Flexed Thigh Technique
The Flexed Thigh technique can be used by the individual or healer. Its convenience is that it both allows you to perform the test easily on yourself and to test the large quadriceps muscle of the thigh, which does not fatigue as easily as the deltoid muscle of the shoulder. It can be performed while standing, sitting, or lying on your back.
When the answer to a statement is "yes" you will remain strong and your thigh will remain lifted. But, when the answer to a statement is "no" your strength will diminish and your thigh can easily be pushed down.
Lift either your right or left leg from the hip with your knee bent and relaxed. When standing, lift your thigh until it is perpendicular to the rest of your body and hold it there, parallel to the floor. (For balance, you can hold onto a doorframe or a piece of furniture with the hand that is not doing the testing.) When lying down, lift your thigh until it is perpendicular to the rest of your body as well as the floor and hold it there; in this position your calf will be parallel to the floor. When seated, lift your leg until your foot comes off the floor with your thigh raised just above the chair seat and hold it there.
Ask the yes-or-no question you want an answer to. Try to keep your thigh elevated as you push down lightly with either hand on your lifted thigh just above your knee. Once the test is complete, relax your leg back into its neutral position of standing, sitting, or lying down, in order to prevent muscle fatigue. Alternating which leg you use to test with is also recommended to prevent fatigue.
Once you know your conscious mind, your subconscious, and your True Self are all on the same page, use the technique to check to see if some foods, supplements, drinks, or remedies are good for you or not. You may be surprised and you may not agree with some of the results. Don’t become alarmed, you’re in the learning stage right now. Keep practicing.
Later you may discover you got a few false positives (system says “yes” but later says “no”) or false negatives (system says “no” but you find out later is should have been “yes”). This happens in the beginning. So don’t be alarmed if everything isn’t perfect from the start. Keep practicing.
Within a few days, you’ll have the system down pat and it will always work for you. Here’s the process:
1. Set your intention for what you want to test
2. Lift your thigh
3. Concentrate on your question (not the answer)
4. Push down gently
5. Record the result
The Pendulum in Essene Healing
Pendulums are made to freely swing from a point. They may be made of any object or substance. Paper pendulums are just as effective as heavy metal, crystal or rock pendulums. The heavy portion of the pendulum free to move is called the bob or the plumb. The bob or plumb hangs down and is suspended from a thread made of cloth, leather, metal or plastic wire, string or rope. The material used to make the pendulum is up to the individual. The thread is hand in the hand by the fingers in such a manner as to allow the pendulum to swing freely.
Pendulums can be made to swing vertically, horizontally, diagonally up to the right, diagonally up to the left, or in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. The direction of the swing may be controlled consciously by the person holding the thread. It may also be controlled by that person’s subconscious mind. Therein lies the problem.
People holding the pendulum, if not properly trained, may consciously or unconsciously control the movement of the pendulum. This defeats the purpose. The purpose of using a pendulum is to obtain answers from the subconscious mind while the subconscious mind is in contact with our own True Self or the Divine. Unfortunately, those observing us while we’re using a pendulum don’t know if we’re in contact with our subconscious mind, imagination, conscious mind or unconscious mind.
For that reason, the Modern Essene Fellowship recommends using pendulums to confirm the response received from some other source such as Essene Kinesiology, spirit guides, guardian angels and our own Higher Self.
To use the pendulum, first train yourself and your pendulum. Do this for each pendulum you use. It’s also a good idea to confirm this before each pendulum session. Suspend the pendulum comfortably in front of you where it can move unobstructed and you can observe its movement. Ask the pendulum to say yes. Wait for it to move and observe its movement. Make a note of how the pendulum moved to indicate a “yes” response.
For most people this is a vertical movement away and toward the person holding the pendulum. For some people it may be a horizontal movement back and forth in from of the person. Occasionally, it may be either a clockwise or counter-clockwise movement. Seldom, it turns out to be a diagonal movement, either up to the right or up to the left. Whatever sign the pendulum uses, make a note of it.
Once you know what the pendulum does for a “yes” response, ask it to say no and note the response. These are the only two messages used by most pendulum practitioners. However, you may also use create and use other commands such as maybe yes, maybe no, undecided, undetermined or any other nuance of yes and no the operator desires.
Once you know the movements and responses used by this pendulum, use it. You use a pendulum by asking a question with a yes or no response. The pendulum will respond.
If you want to receive accurate messages and keep both your imagination and conscious mind out of the process, you need to prepare yourself for a pendulum session through meditation, contemplation, attunement activation followed by prayer, or deep devotion. The Essene Healing Breath is an excellent preparation for a pendulum session anytime during the day. Activating your Essene Healing Hands or your Essene Healing Eyes is also recommended for this purpose. Intentional Prayer is also recommended.
The use of a pendulum in any Essene Healing session is optional and never required.
False Positives And Negatives
False positives do occur. We obtain a “yes” answer and learn later the answer really should have been “no.” False negatives also occur. We obtain a “no” answer and learn later the correct answer was “yes.”
False positives and negatives usually stem from either the conscious mind taking over from the subconscious, inserting its preferred answer, or else one's understanding of the question changing. That would almost always be one's conscious understanding, although, after a suffficiently life-altering experience, the soul itself can learn some new lesson that leaves it with a new understanding of that question.
The subconscious, which is what applied kinesiology allows us to communicate with, is completely true to its understanding of the words used, reason for asking the question, etc., which can turn out to be very different from what the conscious mind thinks they are. While the conscious mind may not be aware of an increase in blood pressure or sweating palms as it formulates a question, the body will always catch those clues and use them to get a fuller understanding of what is really being asked or intended.
Much can be learned from noticing exactly how your subconscious interprets what your conscious mind just thoughtlessly rattled off. Identifying that kind of subtle divergence between parts of the self requires asking lots of qualifying and alternate questions in order to catch a glimpse of where your body gives opposing answers to questions your conscious thought were identical (or vice versa.) Once glimpsed, you can ask more questions to figure out why your body interpreted those questions so differently than your conscious mind did.
In some cases, another factor can be involved in false positives and negatives. To check for this, look first to see if you learned anything about yourself or others. If you did, you received the correct answer for you at that time because you had a lesson to learn.
Secondly, look to see if somebody or something else learned something or if their needs were met because of you. If that happened, you received the correct answer for you at that time because you had to rectify some previous wrong or help a person in need.
Cognitive Dissonance
Again, thank you for this effort!
It was almost jarring to me to realize how soon you would be providing attunement. I should have known better since you told us it would be soon!
While I am "behind" in my practice, what I have practiced is quite powerful, at least from my own perspective.
If I may ask - My understanding is that muscle testing is used as a yes/no divination method and possibly a personal "lie detector". Perhaps that is strong language, what I mean is that a possible use is to uncover any significant cognitive dissonance within ourselves to facilitate honest reflection. Is that a correct understanding, or have I misunderstood the methods/possibilities of muscle testing? Perhaps I am over complicating a simple process or have misunderstood entirely.
Warm Regards,
-Bert

Ecosophia potluck

You'd be welcome to come.
Re: Ecosophia potluck
Ecosophia Potluck????
"If you're planning on coming to the Ecosophia potluck in Providence, RI on June 24 this year, I will be available to do attunements in person that weekend as well."
I believe I will be able to block off some time next weekend for the attunement.
What is this Ecosophia potluck? Is it invitation only? I would be very interested to attend. I may even make one of Brecken Kendall's recipes to bring. Albeit, it would be a 6.5 hour drive from Pennsylvania to Providence, so I may need to warm something in an available oven, since it would be in a cooler for the day.
Best Regards,
Ian

Timing
Reading through the older posts again, the only information I could find about „requirements“ is that a. one should have done at least a month of meditation, and b. one should at least have seriously started with all the other practices.
Does the meditation need to have been consistently during this month, or would a general on-and-off meditation practice do? (I read it as if the point was to establish a daily practice, i.e. at this stage it’s more about the habit than about the results, but wasn‘t sure, hence the clarification.)
And secondly, even if there is no set requirement about how far one needs to have gotten with the blessing walk etc: Is there anything you recommend as sensible? E.g. one would get more out of the attunement if one would have reached at least the stage of x? Or anything else which isn‘t exactly required, but just makes sense from experience?
Finally, do you plan on offering another „tele attunement option“ for this grade later in the year?
Milkyway
Re: Timing
2) Nope. Just do it at least once in the week prior to the attunement.
3) Please reread the post. I addressed that.
Re: Timing
Trying to get my priorities straight for the immediate future, hence the question whether these might be the only two chances for me to get the attunement.

Re: Holy Holy Days, Batman!
I remember the story about Bhishma, though -- one of the books I loved most when I was a kid was a retelling of the core story of the Mahabharata for older kids, titled The Five Sons of King Pandu. I must have read it twenty times or more.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2023-01-06 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)Please count me in on the 14th! Especially after reading Ron's comment on how auspicious the timing is. I've followed the practices daily, and it's almost eerie how I tend to not balk at setting aside time for them. They are well on the way to habit.
I received the attunements for Reiki I and II years ago, and I know attunement is a "Thing" but to be honest, I don't truly understand what, exactly, an attunement is. My guess is that after working with the energy prior to the attunement one blazes a small trail within, and the actual attunement is an acknowledgement from said "energy" that yes, you are clearly serious about this, so rather than stop by while you try to work with me, I'll set up a place within you so that you'll have easier access to me. The responsibility, however, is on you to use this access. It will not develop if you do not.
Am I thinking about this correctly?
Thanks as always,

Healing Hands for my daughter
Thank you so much for the Healing Hands you performed for my daughter last week. There is no obvious improvement in her condition at this time, but I understand that the results may not be obvious, nor physical, nor immediate,
Divination suggests that (provided that it is timed so as to not temporally conflict with any other energy healing she might receive), once some folks here have received their first attunement, it would indeed benefit my daughter to ask attuned students to practice Essenes distance healing on her. Six of Pentacles -- so perhaps I may pay back the favor in some way in the future, as well. Anyway, would it be permissible to request this to the group, once there are some members who qualify?
Re: Healing Hands for my daughter
Open space, can you explain what you mean by this? I didn't quite understand you.
Re: Healing Hands for my daughter
Children being sensitive, can interact badly with the mishmash of energies of modern times, sometimes people's gaze can have a bad effect which is why some women don't like their babies looked at or to interact with people outside family when they are too young. We put those to the street facing plants too, so they don't die from the same thing, the jealousy of neighbors and to keep the evil away from your home for example. So if it's something you'd like to try, I would make it after the healing has been performed. (When the string needs to be removed, it's better to burn it or untie it, not cut.)
Re: Healing Hands for my daughter
Back home, we believe such things do happen, which is the reason why in trad towns babies and children below 8 (and beyond, I still wear one) are put a red string of yarn on the left wrist (and additionally left heal) by the grandmother, mother, or father with three knots, and prayed over as it's been tied up with a protective statement in order to avoid Evil Eye, jealousy, strong foreign energies etc which is common for children to absorb when outside.
Divination seems to suggest this could be helpful to try for my daughter-- 9 of pentacles upright. So does one person normally do the praying while another ties? Or is it one person tying and praying?
Also, the main issue, as far as logistics goes, is that she is of the age that she will play with, suck on, and otherwise try to remove anything that we tie to her wrist-- so it's got to go on very snug. But, we get Reiki (and, perhaps soon, Healing Hands) sent to her on a fairly regular basis. So would we have to untie it each time, and tie it three times while praying each time we put it back on?

Thanks!

2) You can use it for literally anything about which your subconscious might have an opinion. For example, if you have a sniffle one morning, ask, "Is it a cold? Is it dust?" and so on through the alternatives. Then you can ask, "Should I treat this with herbal tea? Reflexology?" and so on, until you get a yes.
no subject
re 2) does it work for non-physical/item related things eg if you wanted to know if you should take on a particular course of Greer-published study would it cover that (or if it needs to be something already affecting you could you start said course of study and then ask a few weeks in 'should I continue this course'?**)
** and if it is something that is taking you apart and putting you back together again might your subconcious be screaming NO THIS IS BAAAAAD which not realising it is for its own good

4) There is an story about King James VI/I who had a case brought to him re an accusation of witchcraft. Apparently the accussed and cast the spell duing the reading of a verse in John and everytime that verse was read she would fall to the floor convulsing. James tried different verses and it only happened on the designated one. He then did the same verse in Latin, Greek and another language and nothing happened. He let the accused off as the devil/demons would understand the other language and still trigger but it only happening in English showed that the lady was putting it on. Why am I telling this story (you may be thinking) ... one of the elements of this process was keeping the concious expectatation out of it (you might *want* light milk to be a yes because you think it is healther when it might not be) and I was wondering if you either got someone to ask the questions in another language (or got a Traslate program to do it) in a random order so you had zero idea what was being asked would that be a legit way to get unbiases answers or is the sourse of wisdom for this process limited to our heart language?
