REIKI Universal Life Force Energy

What is Reiki? It is Universal Life Force Energy. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means “Universal" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy. " Reiki is a form of spiritual practice, used as a complementary therapy, proposed for the treatment of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual ailments.

Is Reiki Safe? For Whom is Reiki? Reiki is positive energy. It never causes harm to any living thing! I recommend Reiki for ongoing health maintenance; it promotes strong health & prevents illness. You don't have to be sick to benefit from Reiki is for everyone: it heals adults, elderly, babies (on mother's stomach), toddlers, children, pets, plantations and non living things like gadgets, equipments etc. In short it is for anything & everything. Reiki for pets? Yes, pets may be helped in recovery from stress, separation anxiety, trauma, and illness. Treat your pet with a dose of Distance Healing following doctor's treatment.

Dr. Mikao Usui developed Reiki in early 20 th century in Japan, where he said he received the ability of ‘healing without energy depletion' after three weeks of fasting and meditating on Mount Kuriama. Practitioners use a technique similar to the laying on of hands, which will channel "healing energy". Practitioners state that energy flows through their palms to bring about healing and that the method can be used for self-treatment as well as treatment of others.

Dr. Chujiro Hayashi is generally considered the main disciple of Dr. Mikao Usui and responsible for turning Reiki into a medicinal practice. Dr. Hayashi was a naval physician, and employed Reiki to treat his patients. Dr. Hayashi, stressed physical healing and taught a more codified and simpler set of Reiki techniques. Among Dr. Hayashi's contributions was a set of fixed hand positions to be used in the course of a treatment; Dr. Usui often preferred a more mystical means of diagnosing the patient's problem.

Dr. Hayashi initiated and trained Mrs. Hawayo Takata, who brought Reiki to the USA. Mrs. Hawayo Takata’s greatest achievement is the transplanting of this gentle spiritual Eastern healing modality to the West. It stands as her gift to humanity.

Features of Reiki Since Reiki is a Positive and neutralising energy, there is no damage or side effect. Since Reiki is drawn by a person scientifically, he/she remains charged with vitality from time to time. Reiki works for results in a person according to the needs of that person. No harm can be sustained to a person with Reiki as it is a Divine Energy. A Reiki channel is also charged with energy to the same extent and duration for which, he/she has given Reiki treatment to another. Reiki can ensure better health, both physical and mental which are interdependent on each other.

The Levels of Reiki There are 4 levels of Reiki in the Usui System of Reiki First Level – Reiki 1 (Reiki Basic Course) Reiki Second Level – Reiki 2 (Reiki Advance Course) Reiki Third Level – Reiki 3 A (Reiki Master Course Part I) Reiki Master Level (Reiki Master Course Part II) - Reiki 3 B

Details of Reiki Levels First Level Reiki – Reiki 1 The first degree Reiki course teaches the basic theories and procedures of how to work with Reiki energy. The channel through which Reiki energy passes to the practitioner is said to be opened or widened through four "attunements" given to the student by the teacher. Students learn hand placement positions on the recipient's body that are thought to be most conducive to the healing process in a whole body treatment. Having completed the first degree course, the participant can treat himself and others with Reiki. The course duration is typically two days, although this varies widely. Second Level Reiki – Reiki 2 In the second degree Reiki course, the student learns the use of three symbols which are said to enhance the healing effect and allow for distance healing. Another attunement is given which is said to further increase the capacity for Reiki to flow through the student, as well as empowering the use of the symbols. Having completed the second level, the student can treat people with Reiki without being physically present with the recipient. The first degree is a prerequisite for the second degree, which is usually taught over two days, although this varies considerably.

Details of Reiki Levels Third Level Reiki or Advanced Training – Reiki 3 A Through the third degree, one more attunement is carried out and the student learns a further master-level symbol. The first and second degrees are prerequisites for the third degree. This level is usually taught over one to two days. Master Level – Reiki 3 B Through the “Master Training", the student becomes a Reiki master. Having completed the master training, the new Reiki master can attune other people to Reiki and teach the three degrees of Reiki. The first, second and third degrees are prerequisites for the master training. The duration of the master training is usually around three to four days.

What is Aura? In parapsychology, spirituality and New Age belief, an Aura is a subtle field of luminous multicoloured radiation surrounding a person or object as a cocoon or halo. An aura may be held to represent or be composed of soul vibrations or chakras, and may reflect the moods or thoughts of the person it surrounds. Everything in the Universe seems to be just a vibration. Every atom, every part of an atom, every electron, every elementary “particle”, even our thoughts and consciousness are just vibrations. Hence, we may define the Aura as a electro-photonic vibration response of an object to some external excitation (such as an ambient light for example). This definition is sufficient for the purpose of reading Auras, providing that we can train ourselves to see the Aura vibration. The most important property of the Aura seems to be the fact that it contains INFORMATION about the object.

What is Aura? (cont’d……) Aura around living (conscious) objects (people, plants. . . ) changes with time, sometimes very quickly. Aura around non-living object (stones, crystals, water. . . ) is essentially fixed, but can be changed by our conscious intent. Above facts have been observed by scientists in Russia, who have been using Kirlian effect to study Auras for the last 50 years. The Aura around humans is partly composed from EM (electromagnetic) radiation, spanning from microwave, infrared (IR) to UV light. The low frequency microwave and infrared part of the spectrum (body heat) seems to be related to the low levels of the functioning of our body (DNA structure, metabolism, circulation etc. ) whereas high frequency (UV part) is more related to our conscious activity such as thinking, creativity, intentions, sense of humour and emotions. Russian scientists, who seem to be about 3 decades ahead of everyone else in Aura research, make experiments suggesting that our DNA can be altered, by influencing its microwave Aura. The high frequency UV part is very important and most interesting but largely unexplored. And this

CHAKRAS Chakra is a Sanskrit term meaning wheel. There is a vast literature on chakra models, philosophy and lore that underpin many philosophical systems and spiritual energetic practices, religious observance and personal discipline. Chakras function and relate within the systemic suite of the human bodymind. The philosophical theories and models of chakras as systemic vortices of energy were identified through the existential mystical practice of yoga in Ancient India where they were first codified.

How do Chakras Work? A chakra is a center of activity that receives, assimilates, and expresses life force energy. The word chakra literally translates as wheel or disk and refers to a spinning sphere of bioenergetic activity emanating from the major nerve ganglia branching forward from the spinal column. There are seven of these wheels stacked in a column of energy that spans from the base of the spine to the top of the head. There also minor chakras in the hands, feet, fingertips, and shoulders. Literally, any vortex of activity could be called a chakra. It is the seven major chakras that correlate with basic states of consciousness. Chakras are considered to be a nexus of metaphysical and/or biophysical energy of the human body. Chakra are often explained according to the protocols of evidence-based medicine like accupuncture points. In some Eastern thought, chakras are considered to be gradations of consciousness, and states of the soul, and 'proving' the existence of chakras is asking to 'prove' the existence of the thought process. A mystic deals with these metaphysical concepts as a model for their internal and external experience, and when talking about 'energy centers', they are generally talking about subtle electromagnetic forces, which connect to the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies.

Flow of Energy into the Body from the Chakras Incoming Primary Energy

Chakras and the Body Mind Interface – Chart Chakra Seven: Crown Chakra Thought, Universal identity, oriented to self-knowledge This is the crown chakra that relates to consciousness as pure awareness. It is our connection to the greater world beyond, to a timeless, spaceless place of all-knowing. When developed, this chakra brings us knowledge, wisdom, understanding, spiritual connection, and bliss. Chakra Six: Brow Chakra Light, Archetypal identity, oriented to self-reflection This chakra is known as the brow chakra or third eye center. It is related to the act of seeing, both physically and intuitively. As such it opens our psychic faculties and our understanding of archetypal levels. When healthy it allows us to see clearly, in effect, letting us "see the big picture. " Chakra Five: Throat Chakra Sound, Creative identity, oriented to self-expression This is the chakra located in the throat and is thus related to communication and creativity. Here we experience the world symbolically through vibration, such as the vibration of sound representing language. Chakra Four: Heart Chakra Air, Social identity, oriented to self-acceptance This chakra is called the heart chakra and is the middle chakra in a system of seven. It is related to love and is the integrator of opposites in the psyche: mind and body, male and female, persona and shadow, ego and unity. A healthy fourth chakra allows us to love deeply, feel compassion, have a deep sense of peace and centeredness Chakra Three: Solar Plexus Chakra Fire, Ego identity, oriented to self-definition This chakra is known as the power chakra, located in the solar plexus. It rules our personal power, will, and autonomy, as well as our metabolism. When healthy, this chakra brings us energy, effectiveness, spontaneity, and non-dominating power. Chakra Two: Navel Chakra Water, Emotional identity, oriented to self-gratification The second chakra, located in the abdomen, lower back, and sexual organs, is related to the element water, and to emotions and sexuality. It connects us to others through feeling, desire, sensation, and movement. Ideally this chakra brings us fluidity and grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment, and the ability to accept change. Chakra One: Root Chakra Earth, Physical identity, oriented to self-preservation Located at the base of the spine, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the element earth, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally this chakra brings us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.
