ABOUT
The Healers Council
THE HEALERS COUNCIL seeks to discover the wisdom that transcends the details of each tradition’s particular technology. A wisdom that is forged through personal transformation, and not simply the acquisition of knowledge.
THE HEALERS COUNCIL recognizes that healing occurs at many levels, and includes the personal, inter-personal, trans-personal, and ecological domains. We therefore seek the wise counsel of healers working within a wide range of disciplines and traditions. Through discovering their common wisdom bond, the healers of our communities can revitalize their vital role as catalysts in revitalizing our communities.
Our Vision
The vision of THE HEALERS COUNCIL is that healers from different traditions will work together to integrate the wisdom and knowledge contained within their traditions.
Our Mission
The goal of THE HEALERS COUNCIL is to build a resource for healers from all traditions where they can explore the perennial wisdom of our healing traditions and explore pathways to their personal and spiritual developmemt.

His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama
“ The heart is a gate-less gate to divinity. Move to the heart. We are all hung up, stuck in the head – that is our problem. The only problem is that we think too much. There is only one solution – get down from the head to the heart. All your problems will disappear. Problems are created by the head. The heart is innocent. The heart is a fountain of love. “
Dr Vasant Lad
“There is an art to medicine as well as science, and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon’s knife”
