professional boundaries in the spiritual domain

The Aaiyyanist Healer or Siddhi must respect the office and hierarchy of Aaiyyanism and act in a professional and spiritual manner at all times. In this regard, we have presented you with a short (but not definitive) list of virtues that the Aaiyyanist should respect and adhere to.

• The Aaiyyanist should maintain the highest professional and ethical standards of relationships between themselves and their clients, other healthcare/non-healthcare professionals, spiritual adjuncts or other walkers of the path. The Aaiyyanist will exhibit harmonious care, a deep honesty, meticulous skill, purity of thought, calmness and integrity and these traits shall be demonstrated at all times.
• The Aaiyyanist will work in a harmonious co-operative manner with all professional healthcare workers, healers of other faiths and fellow Aaiyyanists. The Aaiyyanist will recognise these healthcare workers and healers and respect their particular contribution to the holistic art of mending 'the physical' via the paths of the soul.
• The Aaiyyanist shall never undermine a client's or other healers faith (whatever faith that may be) during their interactions with them and after any interaction. The Aaiyyanist must always (above all else) respect that person's life and spiritual choices.
• The Aaiyyanist must never encourage/pull clients away from other Aaiyyanists, Healers or other professional colleagues. Remember, in most cases the client and yourself would have interacted in one or many previous lives, so there is really no need to remove clients from other helpers. The client and yourself will naturally gravitate to one another as the Universe itself will conspire it to happen, so trying to make a client distant from another human would have a negative impact in a Karmic sense.
• The Aaiyyanist and their client is the same spiritual relationship as a teacher and student - i.e. the Aaiyyanist will care and look after the client and put them on the pedestal of spiritual greatness. The Aaiyyanist therefore, should never exploit their clients financially, sexually, emotionally, spiritually or in any other way. The Aaiyyanists role is to care deeply, and as such they must focus their abilities onto the client to be able to draw planes of energy which can surround both the client and the healer. The healer can be described as a conduit of resonant Loka Siddhion energy from which the Universe will encompass both the healer and the healed. This spiritual relationship is impossible if there is any base physical and emotional ties between the client and Aaiyyanist, therefore the Aaiyyanist should not undertake any form of personal/sexual activity/relationship with a client in their care.
• Following on from the point above, the Aaiyyanist shall never use their professional Aaiyyanist spiritual position to pursue any improper personal relationship with the client (or anyone close to the client such as a close relative or personal companion/friend). The Universe requires harmony in order for the flow of healing energy to transpire. It also must be stated that, Spirits, Asuras, beings of light, Deities and other entities described by the Aaiyyanist Hindu lexicon also admire the physic and spiritual tranquillity that binds the Teacher and the Student; so any pollution of the 'lines of Siddhi trust' must not be severed or diluted.
• Aaiyyanism is about empathy and spiritual consent as well as wholeness of the soul-form. As such, one can perform a touch healing or a non-touch healing and the efficacy will be the same. Humans are multitudinous and varied in their spiritual make-up. Some souls respond well to touch and others do not (depending on past lives and their psychic connections to the greater Universe). So with this in mind, the Aaiyyanist should state that the healing session does not have to be a touch session and even does not require the removal of any clothing. The client knows themselves more than you, so should be able to direct you to the correct course of action. An inner dislike of touch, or an affinity to touch is nothing to worry about - it is just the Universal OM hinting at the soul-mind what the correct course to right action should be.
• The Aaiyyanist shall never give a presumed, uninformed diagnosis of a medical condition to a client in any circumstances. They should always refer the client to a qualified medical practitioner. The Aaiyyanist can give a diagnosis of a spiritual or psychic nature and the more healings you perform - the greater affinity you will get for these 'second sights'.
• It is generally recommended that the Aaiyyanist not prescribe or sell remedies, cures and medical health products as part of the Aaiyyanist practice. The Aaiyyanist exists in the spiritual realm, not the material one. However, if it helps the practise as a whole and the clients themselves request it - then it is permitted. Please contact the Aaiyyan World Foundation for more clarification.
• The Aaiyyanist healer is complementary to the team that will heal and aid the client. The team may consist of friendly beings such as Asuras or Bhutas; and of humans such as medical doctors as well as other practitioners of other faiths. The Aaiyyanist should work in harmony will all and the Aaiyyanist should especially not countermand instructions or prescriptions given by a qualified medical doctor. It must be left to the client to make his/her own decision in the light of any medical or spiritual advice. In the spirit of this stanza - the Aaiyyanists should refer the client back to their medical practitioner/doctor if the client asks them for any medical advice; and the Aaiyyanist should refer the client back to the healer that instructed them on any alternative method of healing. The Aaiyyanist should never offer Aaiyyanism in place of any conventional medical treatment/procedure.
• One must always be self aware of one's own limitations. As you increase in your Aaiyyanist power, your perception of self will also grow until you will know the limits of your spiritual endurance. So if you (as an Aaiyyanist) discovers that the client is suffering from a condition outside the Aaiyyanists scope of practise - such as a serious medical condition/ailment, then the Aaiyyanist shall advise the client to also consult an appropriate professional person/organisation such as a registered medical Doctor or Hospital. Knowing your own spiritual limitations or levels (which will grow in time) is one of the fundamental keys of Aaiyyanism; and the Aaiyyanist should know how to operate spiritually within their own scope of experience and practise, and refer clients elsewhere should the need arise. One must not let one's ego-self harm any aid that the client may need.
