What is Reiki?

       Reiki is translated from Japanese as "Universal life Force Energy". The "Rei"...meaning Spirit, Soul, Universal God. While "Ki"...refers to energy force, breath of life. Almost all religious doctrines refer to this breath of life energy. The Chinese call it Chi or Qi. The Hindus refer to it as Prana, and the Hawaiians, call it Mana. Taoist masters have described Chi as..."the psychosocial power associated with blood and breath". Likewise, Prana can be defined as, " the subtle vibrationary power penetrating the whole cosmos, and every living being, and even able to exercise influence of the mind".

"Wake up and live.

Set your sights high.

The higher the better.

Expect the most wonderful things to happen,

not in the future, but right now.

Realize that nothing is too good.

Allow nothing, absolutely nothing,

to hamper you, or hold you back, in any way".

By Eileen Caddy.

 How does Reiki Heal

We are alive because essential life forces flow through us.

Life force flows within the physical body, through pathways called Meridians.

These Meridians link vital energy centres called Chakras..

It also flows around us in an energy field, called the Aura . Life force

nourishes the organs and cells of the body, supporting them in their vital functions.

When this flow of life force is disrupted, it causes a  diminished function

in one or more of the organs and tissues of the physical body.

Here all levels of being, become effected.

The life force is responsive to thoughts and feelings. It becomes disrupted

when we accept, either consciously, or unconsciously, negative thoughts

or feelings about ourselves.These negative thoughts and feelings attach

themselves to the energy field, and cause a disruption in the flow of

 life force. This diminishes the vital function of the organs and cells of the

physical body.Reiki heals, by flowing though the affected areas

of the energy field, and charges it with positive energy.

It raises the vibratory level of the energy field, in and around the

physical body, where negative thoughts and feelings are attached.

This causes the negative energy to "disolve" .

In doing so, Reiki clears, strengthens and heals the energy pathways,

thus allowing the essential life force to flow in a healthy and natural method.

Bipolar Nature of Reiki

Reiki consists of masculine and feminine energies.

The masculine energy comes from above,

and is associated with the Crown and higher chakras,

and is called Shiva in the Tantra system.

The feminine energy comes from below, and is associated with the Base

chakra, and is called Shakti, in the Tantra system.

Remember the saying ….Father Sky....Mother Earth ...so too are

 the energies, masculine for strength, and feminine for nurturing.

These two energies "communicate" with each other and decide how much

of each polarity is needed, as you receive healing. It is interesting to note,

that if there are several healers healing one recipient, the energy "communicates"

with each healer, on a Spiritual level. This in turn leads to a distribution

of individual balanced energy.

The Reiki Precepts.

Just for today, I will let go of anger.

Just for today, I will let go of worry.

Just for today, I will love and respect all life forms.

Just for to day, I will accept many blessings.

Just for today, I will live my life honestly.

This is the secret method of inviting happiness,

as laid down by the Meiji Emperor.

You may be asking what this has to do with Reiki?

 In order to be of service to others,

you must first know, respect, heal and love yourself.

 If you can not do this, then how can you heal others?

"The whole world is becoming smaller and smaller.

The concept of "We" and "They" is gone...

out of date"....

Let us all join together and create ....

Let us all Heal The World.
