The second link in the Link section will take you to the introduction to my bog. Links found near the top are the most useful for understanding chi and healing. There are some real treasures here if you but take the time to find them, inshAllah.

What do you do when healing does not occure?

There is a truth in healing that says, "Nothing works for everyone all the time." and as Frank Zappa use to say in one of his songs, "There is no way to delay that trouble coming everyday." All we can do is try to see if a technique or an idea has value in a certain situation by trying it. Let what happens as a result of our experiment be our guide for the next step. Either we are successful and we can give thanks or it does not work and we try something else and see what will happen. So it goes. Sometimes no matter how many techniques we try or how much we pray nothing works and we or our loved ones continue to suffer or die.
The reality is that none of us gets out of here alive. Death and suffering are inevitable no matter how developed we are or how much we believe or practice something. We can ease some pain sometimes. We can prolong life sometimes. But we cannot stop death and we cannot insure that suffering will never come to us or our loved ones. In the end we all suffer and we all die. So it has always been and so it will always be. It is just a matter of time before it is our turn or the turn of our friends or families to fall into the void.
When we have tried repeatedly to ease our own pain and prevent our own death but have failed there comes a time when we need to accept what is and what is going to happen to us. This is also true when the suffering and death are not ours but our friends and families. We need to finally let go of our efforts and just be with what is and will be in the most loving, open, and humble way we can.
