Further to what beloved @Monesh_Bathre has so kindly taken the time to review, here is my take,
The client is clearly a Visual processor and you calibrated beautifully, @hc2101 ! In the initial regression, the client described the beach with golden sand, coconut trees, and greenish water. In the subsequent lives, he described the rough wrap-around cloth, the leather and metal shoes, the mud and stone house, and the Pundit Jiās white oil lamp. These are all strong Visual descriptions. letās discuss this in our monthly forum call today my blessed @hc2101 as Iād like us to have it fixed, Your questioning was consistently well-calibrated like āWhat do you see?ā and āLook at your feetā¦ what are you wearing?ā are perfectly targeted questions for a Visual client, helping them ground the experience in sensory detail.
thatās science 
mind is as mechanical as any machine that you know.
thatās a much needed indicator that everything that weād done so far has worked.
unfortunately this is how the weak people in leadership positions have made it their only way of survival
now a days I start the I of IDT with, do you feel a body 
and if the response is a yes, then the next suggestions, is,
is it the same body or a different one?
in case they say itās a different one, then the sub-personality has been established and you can ask what could you be wearing on your feet? holding in your handsā¦ dress and etcā¦
one priceless tip which will make you a pro is, as soon as we are confronted with a āNoā or response which we werenāt anticipatingāanything unexpected can derail the session and should be immediately taken as a point from where every attempt is made to regain the balance. to avert a major accidentā¦ So the next suggestion should have followed the EPE model, Empathise, Paraphrase and Elicit the next event though a well calibrated suggestion.
I might not really be right, but based on this, it seems like we might be respecting what the magnanimous Superconscious mind has surfaced for usā¦ but we are anticipating something elseā¦ we should always value what has been givenā¦
show the importance of the right theme selection, being so precise paid off here! I urge you all to be pedantic instead of the āKuch bhi chal ta heiā attitude.
maybe we jumped the gun here, it was too soon, we should helped him relive the death experienceā¦ with suggestions like, what happens after you leave that body?
Remember we need a state of hyper awareness to process and integrate such powerful lessons from the source of all creation.
hence this is a CO not a lesson as it doesnāt align with the universal principle of Love/Dharma.
we could have done a lot here actually and this one lifetime would have been sufficient to reduce the pain to zero.
your suggestions can be much more relaxing than the park, coaching breathing and giving directives to relieve stress as and when observed could have made this redundant.
if we could have done the resolution PD (post death ) in the earlier session, the client would have picked up another themeā¦
you could have helped with your suggestions, tell me how
this will not have any therapeutic impact as the resolution is not endogenic
repeated again,ā¦
Actually I had goosebumps reading this message my blessed Harmeet, itās not only for you, but for all of us. We never heal, it is Ma Parvathy who does her magic, we are merely dogs at her blessed door.
as you fine tune your skills, you will see it being done in the3rd session itself!
So in summary the client, Shekhawat, presented with a 20-year-old wound of betrayal by his business partners, which led to significant financial loss and personal crisis, including postpartum depression. His pain level remained 5/10 despite his current successful and contented life. The core question was āWhy me?ā
Session 2 was crucial in setting the stage. You successfully anchored him using the āBall of Lightā and Staircase methods and got him to a space of peace (the Garden/River) before gently exploring happy childhood memories. This eased him into the process, managing the initial jitters.
Timing/sequence issues:-
- The Affect Bridge wasnāt appropriately used as you had already picked up a theme whose response potential was only 5/10 and after having resolved it to some extent, went with an affect bridgeā¦?
- Brining the support figure (Pandit ji) in climax while they should have preceded the PL explanation in what we refer to as the āAncient Templeā visualisation.
- I can find four distinct past lifetimes linked by themes of trust, dependence, and karmic repercussions which could have left residual because KMF2C wasnāt attempted.
- Pauses were misplaced, remember memory that we are extracting is not a noun but a verb.
There were some contradictory lessons which emerged due to the above, take for instance:
PL 1 As Lani
Primitive/Tribal life focused on survival, community reliance, and a primal form of betrayal (Lani running off with the communityās āstuffā). The lesson extracted was not to trust peopleā¦
PL 2 As Daro
Warrior/Settler more structured life (c. 1800s?) where Daro was a warrior who, in a moment of conflict, killed an innocent man and later betrayed his people on the battlefield by leaving them to die. This life created the core karmic debt. The lesson revolved around family duty, keeping peace, and not saying harsh wordsā¦
PL 3 Cave Meditator
A more ancient, spiritual life (c. 500-600 BC?) where the client was stabbed to death after an emotional altercation in a cave. The lesson here was to listen to people and let go.
PL 4
1930s Europe, A brief glimpse of a life involving running from the police and being caught, with the community applauding, suggesting social conflict and perhaps another form of betrayal
In case of having elicited more than one lifetime, weād need to have a resolution for all these lifetimes by using resolutions like,
āwhat was common between all these lifetimesā¦ā and such.
The lessons from Daroās life (ādonāt depend on othersā) and the Cave life (āI need to listen to peopleā) are in sharp contrast. This is fascinating! In the integration phase, if time permits, you can gently ask the client to hold both lessons and find the synthesis (the higher wisdom). For example, after deepening,
"Is it possible, Shekhawat, that the wisdom is not ānever depend on others,ā from your lifetime as Daro nor āalways listen to everyone,ā from your lifetime as a Cave Dweller could meaning something which you can put into practice for not feeling betrayed going forwardā¦ "
This couldāve turned two seemingly contradictory lessons into one unified, higher spiritual principle.
You displayed a very solid foundation in permissive and gentle language, which is the cornerstone of indirect suggestion. The use of āallow yourself to go back to that time,ā āallow yourself to go to the next significant eventāā¦, is a powerful, indirect command because it implies the client is already capable and the therapist is simply giving permission for the subconscious to act. When heslipped from the initial beach vision to the second life (Lani), it seemed like the initial image was a hypnotic screen rather than a past life, or perhaps a desired safe place. When you noticed the lack of detail (āI donāt see anyoneā¦.looks like no one lives hereā), your instruction to move to the next significant event was technically correct. However, for a V/K client, a gentle prompt like,
āThatās a beautiful place, and itās holding you safely. Now, allow that peaceful scene to gently dissolve, and let the feeling of the betrayal pain on your chest carry you through time to the very first moment your soul felt this type of woundā
can ensure a cleaner transition and less ājumpingā between seemingly disconnected scenes.
Harmeet, you have handled a complex case with deep-seated emotional pain and delivered a profound resolution that will benefit this client for the rest of his life. You are a wonderful therapist, and I am so proud of the work you are doing.
