If you have a diagnosed psychiatric disorder, ask your doctor or psychiatrist before you order Shakti.
Why?
The warning not to use Shakti if you have a psychiatric disorder without asking your doctor or psychiatrist
is not just a matter of legal disclaimers. Psychiatric disorders, which involve persistent mental pain, are based on disordered
neural functions and pathways. When the related pathways are are triggered, the symptoms appear. One risk that
presents itself to people with these disorders using Shakti is that their pathological routes through the brain
can be the path of least resistance for responding to almost anything that happens. In these extreme cases, even
the Shakti signals can trigger an unpleasant response.
However, not all mental issues are caused by psychiatric disorders. Some people are simply unhappy with their
own tendency to go into fear, anger, or sadness, and consider these tendencies to be an obstacle to their spiritual
growth. Such people do not need psychiatric medications, psychotherapy or to spend time in an institute. They may
wonder if they fit the diagnostic criteria for a mental disorder, but 'know in their hearts' that it isn't that
serious.
Such people can order and use Shakti, but should begin with frontal lobe sessions, or the 'feelgood' session.
If you feel this applies to you, and you want to know how you can use Shakti to move away from negativity, giving
you the space to cultivate positive thinking, then you should know that the sessions most germane are going to
be ones over the frontal lobe, or two-phase sessions that begin over the temporal lobes and end over the frontal
lobes. One such session is called the 'feelgood' session, and interestingly, it has less effect when used by a
person who already feels good, just like aspirin has no effect when you have no pains.
These mood enhancement sessions are not intended to cure psychiatric disorders, and shouldn't be used as a substitute
for medical treatment.
