Year 2023 has been a door opener for all of us as it allows us all to break out from the sting of Pandemic and release us all from the limitations of Lock Down. Within this year we as pandemic end up, we also end our Online Class to allow Face 2 Face and In Person Classes to happen.
And our Buena Mano for this year is Lani Brown from Corona, California. Lani Brown took the Non-Contact Hilot: Mind and Spirit work in mastering our Philippine Traditional Diagnostic & Divination System. In our online class she was initiated to perform Tawas sa Papel and Tawas sa Itlog so as the Healing Art of Kilubansa that includes conducting Ritual of Pagpag Taboy and Pauli Dampi. She was also introduced to the Art of Pulse Reading Analysis during the Online Class. And when she came in the Philippines to learn Hilot Binabaylan. We have gladly share to her all the techniques that will equip her in providing Hilot Treatment such as the Hilot Cleansing Rituals, other Hilot Diagnostic Method, Hilot Treatments and Basic Hilot Herbal Supplementation.
By February, 2 Australian Besties came to us and took the Masidhing Kamagaral Class. One came from Queensland, Australia which is Argo Theoharis and the other is Nawa Sybico from Tazmania, Australia. Masidhi Hilot Training is a 3 days orientation class that trains them to perform tawas, suob, bentusa and basic hilot touch manipulation techniques. We conducted their Training at International Insitute of Rural Reconstruction in Brgy. Biga 2, Silang, Cavite, Philippines.
Then on March, Hilot Hands from London came to visit us in the Shrine as she reach out to us and ask for our Blessings to establish school in London on which School of Kapwa was established. Jutheanne Cruz was lone Filipino providing Hilot in London and dream of training people that will provide Hilot Treatment. In her one-day visit, we provide her quick lesson review on our Traditional Hilot Binabaylan method, it’s just like a refresher course to her so that she could Identify what is authentic Hilot into modernized and westernized form. We are Praying for the Success of School of Kapwa as Hilot in London is already accredited as a Diploma Course.
An on April, we started to utilize Bahay SiAdTala in Taguig which was newly constructed, and it was very convenient as it is near the airport that we could easily pick up our traveling students from the airport and book them their room accommodations at CPG Estate Goldbergs Hotel in Brgy. South Signal Village Taguig. From April to December, Red Doorz Hotel or CPG Estate Goldbergs Hotel have become a home of our students. So that after training, they could have a comfortable bed to rest. Their room is fully airconditioned and has Wi-Fi access; and their bathroom has hot and cold shower. And every morning we pick them up in their hotel through an Ebike and bring them to our training center for their breakfast and send them back after Dinner.
April was the Busiest Class as we accommodate Maria Bustamante, Grace Mabulay and Kai Pfiefer; then after them we also welcome Carolina Nimmer. In their class, we have found a different effect of Hilot as they experience it as Hilot Touch could resurface the emotional pain from their past traumas and even in their past life. Indeed, that the Healing Art of Hilot always amaze me as we continue to embrace and promote it for the future generations.
Then on May 10- the day of my Birthday, we have picked up Kira Tejada at the Airport from Canada. Kira is a Tattoo Artist and has an ancestry from Aklan. It is amazing that in this present age, all the healing modalities of Hilot that has been broken down in the past due to persecution and conversion to Catholicism are now being brought back together and be known as Hilot Binabaylan as we reintroduce it back to the World.
I though Kira will be the last student for the year, but Christine came by July 11-20 and took the 9 days Hilot Binabaylan, Remedial Hilot & SiAdTala Baybayin Mystic Oracle Training. And what I did not realize, Christine’s full name is Quynh Vy Cao as she mentioned that she was born in the US and currently work in Vietnam, but in reality, she was a Vietnamese- American. Since many who comes to us are Filipino with foreign blood, but Quynh Vy is a Vietnamese- American that has a big Heart for the Filipino. Her Hilot Training with us re affirms our Hilot Principle that in Healing, we do not discriminate, we provide our service to everyone whether they are male/female or any gender identity/orientation/expression, nationality, religion, political affiliation, age, etc. Through Quynh Vy, i have learned also some vietnamese culture and see the similarity that we have from each other. It is trully a Blessings for us to know diffirent cultures and tradition as we also share to the world the Healing power of Hilot. It is truly #TouchtheworldwithHilot and #HealTheWorldWithHilot. And on the Day of her graduation, I was very glad, because our first initiate and Graduate of Hilot that was named as Dayang Simoy Amihan or Verma Zapanta, visited us to pay respect and introduced to us his Boyfriend now his Husband named Harvey Lozada.
And lastly by September, Rio Heradura who is graduate of our Non Contact Hilot Mind and Spirit Class from London came to take the Maaram Hilot Training which is a 2 day orientation workshop on the practice of Hilot. I am so blessed that the ones that I meet online during the pandemic, now I have meet in person. It is my perpetual gratitude to everyone for continuously supporting our efforts in preserving and promoting our very own Ancestral Healing Tradition. As I promise that I will stand firm and continue this work and bring it along as we enter the new Year of 2024.
And with that being said, let me just announce as well that our 8 days and 9 days Hilot Binabaylan Training will only be available by January to June 2024 because me and Lakay will go to Danville, California, USA by July to September with our Sister Maria Haswell as she will host us in conducting Hilot Binabaylan Training in the US. So, by January 2024, me and Lakay will process out our Visa Application that we can surely come to the US by July. As of this moment, me and Lakay are very excited to see you in person, so grab this opportunity to learn from us while we are in the US. Now, if we are in the US, what do you want to learn from us?
