The "Heilstrom"
Life stream from the divine power source
Gröning as transformer between the “power station” God and the human “light bulb”
Bruno Gröning referred to himself as the mediator of a spiritual power that emanates directly from God and brings about healing. He called this divine power “Heilstrom.”
In order to explain the nature of the Heilstrom, he compared God to an electric power station and man to a light bulb. Just as the light bulb can only fulfill its purpose when the current from the power station reaches it, so man can only live in divine order when he receives energy from God. Gröning described his role as that of a “transformer.” He transforms the infinite high, divine energies in such a way that each person receives only as much as he can absorb. His own capacity to absorb energy was unlimited. This was why, on the ‘Traberhof’ property near Rosenheim for example, thousands of people simultaneously felt the healing energy, and mass healings took place.
When the connection between God and humanity was severed
Bruno Gröning explained that originally there was direct connection between the "power station," God, and the "receiver," man. People lived on earth as God's children in the highest unity with their Father. But in turning away from God, they fell out of the divine order and fell victim to want and misery. The connection between God and man was severed. In time, an ever deeper chasm developed, which the human being was unable to bridge by himself.
The bridge over the chasm between God and human being, to a new attitude towards life
Bruno Gröning remarks, “And because man could not return to the divine path because the bridge that led to it had been destroyed, and he and his fellow human beings were crowded together in a miserable little heap and wandered around aimlessly, I have rebuilt this bridge. I have set it up once again. If you make use of it, if you cross over it, you will come to the divine path, and you, too, will be connected with the great, unique, divine work and receive the one and only healing stream, which will enable you to lead a good – and above all a healthy – life.”
“Whoever crosses this bridge and takes the true, divine path will quite different. He will be amazed by everything he finds here, which he was unaware of before. It is here that you will really have the connection to the great, divine Work.”
Whoever follows the teaching of Bruno Gröning and opens himself to the divine energy will feel the healing stream in his own body. A totally new attitude towards life will enter him. Pain, worries and misery will yield to health, harmony and joy. He will come to realize that God is not enthroned as a merciless judge high above the stars, but is here with people as a loving Father and wants to help them. The chasm has been bridged. Once again, man experiences the original state.
The Great Turn-Around
Separate from illness and believe in health
Mentally engaging with the illness means one is holding onto it
Over and over again, Bruno Gröning appealed to people to change their ways. He reminded them that they had to put their belief in the good into action and desist from bad habits.
Firstly, he urged people not to think about the illness. He pointed out that illness came from the evil and is evil. To engage with it is to occupy oneself with what is bad. This hinders the healing process and may even render it impossible. “To engage with illness is to hold on to it and block the path of divine energy.”
A person should separate themselves from the illness, not regard it as their property, but rather as see it as something evil. “Illness does not belong to the human being!”
Hand the illness over to Bruno Gröning
Bruno Gröning offered to take away illness from people. “Give me your illness and your worries! Alone, you cannot deal with them. I will bear them for you. But give them to me voluntarily; I cannot steal them from you!”
“If you let go of your illness so that I can take it from you, this is good. If you hold on to it, I am not allowed to do anything. The seventh Commandment forbids it: ‘Thou shalt not steal!’ If I take this illness by force, I would sin. I dare not steal! Whoever loves their illness holds on to it, but whoever can forget about it, I will take it from them, if they give it freely, not just in thought, but in deed as well. You must listen to my words! I don't want to influence you. If you give me your illness, I will take away all your suffering!”
First a person has to achieve an inner turn-around
Just how important Bruno Gröning considered the person‘s change of attitude is illustrated by the following excerpt from the book Die Grosse Umkehr (The Great Turn-around) by Kurt Trampler (a healed person and occasional helper of Bruno Gröning, journalist and author): “In private talks too, Gröning made the firm observation that he was responsible to God, that 'healing through the pure divine energy' could only be given to those sufferers who were at least willing to live according to divine law, and was not allowed for those who were not prepared to give up evil. ‘I could,’ he said, ‘perform a mass healing by saying, ‘All the sick people in a certain city or country get well!’ But then, wouldn’t more be lost than gained? Would those among the sick who were bad be prepared to change their ways? Would they not misuse their newly gained health? No! A person must first change their inner attitude; they must first be prepared to tear out whatever is evil within themselves and find their way to God. Only then are they worthy of being healed.’”
The original man was not ill
The following words of Bruno Gröning clarify this remark and explain the origin of illness:
“How did it actually come about that the human being became ill? The original human being was not ill. People have become bad, worse from generation to generation. The badness had escalated so much that it is almost impossible to live. Quarrels and strife in families, more war than peace between nations! Worries have brought emotional suffering to humanity and have taken such deep root that people are bound to get sick. One person emotionally burdens the next. People are miseducated; they have distanced themselves from what is natural; many have lost their belief in God. But whoever loses the divine path, also loses his health.”
If a person wishes to regain his health through Bruno Gröning, he must be prepared to let go of “evil.” He must turn his back on what is bad – the illness – and part with it, no longer think “my asthma, my rheumatism” and so on. This is not always easy. It demands inner transformation. The person has to change his way of thinking. One shouldn’t habitually think about the illness, but rather believe in health. One must take up the belief that even incurable illnesses can be healed.
“I cannot be understood by the intellect”
What incredible demands Bruno Gröning made on those seeking help! Logical thinking balks at taking such provocative challenges seriously. How can joints deformed by rheumatism return to order? How do paralyzed limbs function again? How is it possible to give Bruno Gröning an illness without him undertaking even the smallest treatment, yes, without even describing the ailment to him? Is this not an insult to every rational person?
Indeed, it is a tremendous change of attitude that Bruno Gröning expects of people; it requires setting aside every scientific, every logical way of thinking and adopting a belief in something higher. His teaching is based on totally different fundamentals than today’s materialistic spirit, which has arisen from intellectual thinking. This is why he often said, “I cannot be understood by the intellect”.
The cause of illness
When the connection to the divine power source is missing
An illness is no coincidence
Many people today believe that illness is a random occurrence that manifests out of the blue and overwhelms a person. But Bruno Gröning said, “The further a person withdraws from God, willingly or unwillingly, the less life there is in his body, and his organs do not function as they should. He has lost contact with the great, divine source of his energy, and eventually he even loses what little remains. Cut off from the power of God, his body becomes a wreck.”
A chasm developed between God and humankind
Gröning described the way a person regains his health as follows: “God created the human being beautiful, good and healthy, which is how he wanted him to be. Originally there was an indestructible bond between God and human beings, and there was only love, harmony and health. All was one. But when the first person listened to the voice, listened to the evil which spoke from beyond this unity, and did what it said, the connection was severed, and a great chasm developed between God and the human being. There is no connection. On his own, a human, no matter how devout, no matter how much he prays, will constantly be attacked on his life’s path by the evil and dragged down into the depths. On your life’s path, you have arrived there, in the depths. You experience misfortune, pain and incurable suffering. I say to you, do not go any deeper. Rather, I summon you to the great turn-around! Come back up, and I will build you a bridge across the chasm. Cross over from the path of suffering to the divine path! On this path there is no misfortune, no pain, and nothing is incurable. This path leads back to God.”
The Teaching of Bruno Gröning
Help and healing on the spiritual path
The teaching of Bruno Gröning is based on the influence that spiritual forces have on human beings. This influence is greater than most people realise.
The human being is like a "battery." To fulfill their tasks, a person has to keep taking in life energy
Bruno Gröning compared a person to a battery. In daily life, everyone burns up energy. However, often not enough new life energy is absorbed to replace it. In the same way that an empty battery is incapable of functioning, a body without energy is also unable to fulfill its tasks. The consequences are fatigue, exhaustion, nervousness, anxieties and finally, illness.
Bruno Gröning’s teaching explains how an individual can obtain new energy. The belief in goodness is a necessary prerequisite, as is the will to be healthy. The human body is constantly surrounded by healing waves which only have to be absorbed. According to Bruno Gröning, no illness is incurable, and this fact is confirmed by the healings that have occurred and have been medically verified. These healings are spiritual and therefore not dependent on Bruno Gröning being physically present.
The best way to take in the Heilstrom
In order to absorb the Heilstrom (healing stream), the person seeking help sits with hands open, palms facing up. Their arms and legs are not crossed, as crossing them blocks the free flow of the healing stream. Thoughts about illness and personal problems have an inhibiting effect, while thoughts about something pleasant are beneficial.
As the Heilstrom flows through the body, it makes contact with the organs which have been burdened through illness and begins its purification effect. This may lead to pain, which is an indication that the body is being cleansed. Since the illness as such is not the will of God, it will gradually be removed. In some cases, this can be spontaneous. This is why it is essential for the person concerned not to dwell on his illness, but, rather, to believe that for God, no illness is incurable.
In order to remain healthy, the friends of Bruno Gröning tune in to the Heilstrom every day. A healthy body is the basis for living a life in harmony with oneself, other human beings and nature.
Bruno Gröning gives humanity a teaching
The aim of the teaching of Bruno Gröning is to transform everyone into someone who is full of the joy of living and free from physical and emotional problems.
Here are the exact words from Bruno Gröning: “My teaching is an absolute statement of the truth of life. Many of my friends live by it and have had success. Accepting this teaching brought them complete inner transformation, which in many cases led to success with their health.”
Bruno Gröning had only one aim: to help those in distress. He gave them his teaching to take with them on their way. It was not based on the intellectual, but rather on the intuitive perception of spiritual laws. On closer inspection, one discovers an unexpected complexity and realizes that it far exceeds the healing aspect, in that a person receives not only healing in his body, but also healing of his soul. He appealed to people to believe in the good and to put it into action.
