Should You Use Healing Abilities to Make Money?

A viewer writes, "I have discovered the ability to heal with my hands. At first, I healed my relatives, while continuing in my regular job which is carving wood, making exclusive furniture. Somehow things evolved and people started coming to me for healing. They also suggested I take this up as a full-time profession as a healer, but I am not sure about this, as it does not feel right to charge money for this type of work. Dr Laitman, I would like to know what I should do with this ability the Creator has given me, and should I use it to make a living?” Here is Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman’s response: “I regret to tell you that I do not know and can’t advise you on this. However, if you can help people, then this is a wonderful thing. Go ahead and try it and free up time from your current job. There is no prohibition to earning through healing. Alternatively, you could keep it as a hobby. The current work you do as a wood carver is interesting and rare these days, and such an art form. Clearly, you love your work, and therefore you are having these doubts. Such artists as yourself, who undertake this special kind of work, creating with your hands, bring pleasure to yourself and to others, and thus it is utterly worth the envy of others. When one can heal, without any self-benefit, the healing is more effective. “My teacher Rabash gave me a wonderful example of a doctor friend of his who was able to demonstrate that using a correct attitude toward healing would let him be more concerned about the patient’s recovery than doing so for the sake of the money. If you head into healing with your special abilities, consider making sure these abilities do not disappear. This can only happen if you have the right attitude to the world, to life, to how you can help others”.
